Xenosian Academy

The Xenosian Academy (est. 2104 AE) is a college aimed at training young mages, particularly in preparation for the coming wars against Arda. It was founded by Calisto and Ylthana, and is based in Castello Arcani, in Western Kaledonia.

The Academy was founded on the philosophy that no source of magical power was any more superior than any other, in contrast to the attitudes of the League of Scholars, where Wizards were generally given preference over Warlocks and Sorcerers.

The Academy currently has 11 students, taught by Calisto and Ylthana. Prior to the Battle of Hope, the Academy had nearly 30 students, however 9 were killed in the Battle, which led to some abandoning their studies.

One of the original students of the Academy was Free the foster son of Ylthana. He fought in the Battle of Hope, and left the Academy shortly afterwards, but visits on occasion to aid in teaching new students.

The Academy is considered by some to be a counterpart to the Witch Hunter's Guild in Farador, although the two institutions work independently of each other.
