welcome to Eldritch Academy
In a world of myths and mysteries, the pinnacle of the magical academies exists. Eldritch Academy offers education to all ages and species but specializes in the study and training of one's innate mystical capabilities, often called Eldritch Energies, Powers, or Unknowns, but more formally known as their Talent. However, tensions run high with the nations only holding a fragile peace as the Talents that rival the epitomes of technology change the balance of power.
With the more recent uprising of evil Shades and introduction of combat-oriented programs into Talent-focused schools, nations grow more aggressive towards one another. The demand for resources grows, and skirmishes at the border of Arka and Mistere become more frequent. Monsters run into the nations from the Wildes, terrorizing villages and cities. The need for trained or in-training Hunters and Guardians has never been more urgent.

Whilst some had been taken down due to being in an inconvenient place she had still seen them, tacked into the school noticeboard that was outside every dorm room. The main cafeteria was starting a new menu, "A fresh start for a fresh year! come and try out dishes from across the nations with spice and influence from all corners of the map, take your taste buds on a culinary tour!" The catchphrase was certainly alluring, enough to bring her out of a dazed state whilst flickering through a well known fashion magazine, it had been a birthday present, not just this magazine but a whole years worth! It was pretty awesome, each month the postman would come and give her another magazine from "Lá Cosmi Vogue". It was her favourite. intrigued enough to put the magazine in her messenger bag as the clocktower let out a dull sound to notify all that it was noon. Lunchtime, yes, and there was that new menu out at the cafeteria! Where was Clem? She had been sitting in the courtyard reading for a while and gotten so lost in the pages of talented designs that she had lost track of both time and siblings. It was fine, lunchtime would bring most students to the large cafeteria.
[break]
[break] The meals were free, for her at least that much the purple haired female knew was due to her parents paying for a full package, boarding and food included. head poked over the counter as she bit her lip slightly, so much to choose from! "Excuse me! Can I have the, ah, a plate of Kroppkakor! The dumplings look so nice, thanks yous!" Whilst she appeared rather happy, a beaming smile spread across her face, there were others around with more nefarious intentions. A plate of dumplings carefully balanced in two hands with a uniform plushie tucked under one arm amethyst hued eyes searched, was Kaiden around? Cleme or Lavender would surely be somewhere. [break]
[break] It flew right past her eyes, a small clump of pasta held together by the sauce and meat all tangled in its long strands. Flying spaghetti monster? Her confusion was imminently shared by many of the others in the area, that was until a young man stood up on a table, his very appearance was, what was that fancy long word. Oh yes, he appeared much like the manifestation of delinquency. A couple of words hollered out by the uncouth youth set a spark across many of the students. "Food Fight" Once shouted by a single individual the murmur ran through the crowds, a second brave soul standing tall to throw a bagel into another's face. What was this? A food fight, a war with food, this was supposed to be a high class school!

What was the best class in school? Why, lunch of course! Well, it wasn't actually a class. But Felis wasn't one for technicalities. It was still a period during school time where you were on school ground and followed school rules, so basically it was still a class on its own. The best class, at least for this cat. Other than his own, of course. But this class allowed him to eat, so it was better. Could he be the professor of lunch time? He'd have to ask his boss about taking that position of someone else didn't already have it. Being a teacher, while being very hard with tedious and dull work, had its upsides. For one, he didn't have to wait in line with the pubescent children. Not getting shoved, yelled at, or forced to pay to eat. You know, having to pay for a thing that keeps you alive. Nope. Food was free, at least for him. But that was to be expected when you dealt with screaming children daily. Or perhaps the school had grown tired of him trying to sneak the junk food out of the pantry during the night for his snacks and burying them in the garden for later use. Either way he wasn't complaining.
The white feline sat in front of the iron door which led straight into the kitchen a little away from the lunch line of bustling students awaiting their meals to be slopped onto plastic trays. He watched the door with attentive blue eyes, his skinny tail swishing in the air. After a moment of waiting a large, pudgy woman wearing a messy apron shoved open the large door with her back, carrying a plate in her hands. Upon her entering Felis stood to his paws, his eyes lightening up with joy. Ah yes, today they had made his favorite for him. Pizza chock-full of anchovies and chicken. No vegetables, of course. He didn't care much for them, despite having a talent which involved plants. He was a carnivore, what could he say? Grass was pretty good from time to time but other than that he liked his meats. A deep purr emitted from his body when the lunch lady knelt down and placed the paper plate onto his back. He had to be careful for a moment to balance it, but used his talent to grow some small vines from his fur to keep it in place. Once the plate was stable he looked up to the lady and nodded in thanks. "Thanks, Sharon. Send Chef Bragoli my thanks also, this piece looks as good as always." He didn't normally get pizza, mostly due to some of the higher ups keeping a strict eye on his diet. But whenever he spent a couple of days straight in his den working on his potions he tended to lose track of time and could go entire days forgetting to eat. So this was basically their way of dragging him back to reality. Sharon nodded also before heading back to the kitchen. Turning around Felis started to trot happily back to his classroom where he normally ate lunch, a pep in his step despite some students almost tripping over him when they weren't being careful. But before he could get to the door, he heard those special words. Those two words most teachers actually dreaded.
Food fight.
Just the phrase alone caught his attention. But not in a bad way. Oh no. His childish nature overrode his adult instincts to stop it, and his mind instantly saw this as a challenge. A smile curved onto his muzzle. The vines from his fur flipped the plate over and he looked up to see his pizza in the air, catching the crust in his mouth before it met the ground. The precious pizza was safe now. "Arife den, kiddos. I'll gif ya fud" he laughed through a full mouth. A green circle shone above him, a portal that started to fling eggplants in every direction and squish into whatever body they touched.

Lavender was the sort who tried her darn hardest to be at every school social event, it had been that way at home and it was clearly that was here! By the time her younger sister had arrived, the teenager already stood obscured in a corner by some of their peers, a few of which were much older. However, this did not last for very long once she caught sight of familiar stark white hair and politely excused herself to search for the girl that glimmer belonged to. Zucc had already obtained the dumplings and heard the foot get pelted by the time she managed to catch up to the present twin. "Zucchini." speaking her sister's name she smiled and placed a hand on her shoulder aiming to bring her sister in for some small semblance of a hug. Right now? There was no time for full affectionate displays, there was a new battle taking place, and they were going to win! "Find your other half, and Ana if you can, we got a food fight to win Sis!" she smirked and patted the kids shoulder before she moved herself to dart for a plate of food and toss it hopefully dead center at the feline. Lavender didn't care who was student, teacher, or other, she was going to win this.

Huh? Time did fly by, it appeared - first, Wani was up on the corner to order his meal, a chicken burger and orange juice, before finding a place to enjoy his food. It was weird how they just put a whole, steaked chicken inside a bun like this; back in Hisakawa, they usually put meat nakedly along with rice or ramen whilst having the buns emptied and without filling. Having taken a bite, he immediately began to love this type of food - the blank, fiber bread was warm and invited his teeth to dig deeper into the sudden, crusty and spicy chicken that had the perfect temperature - not too hot, but hot nonetheless. It was a blissful taste, and he planned on savoring every bite of this burger…
Until the words were spoken…
“Food fight? Alread-“ he was speaking up to himself in surprise when war emerged in the blink of an eye. And just as fast, a random eggplant managed to plant right into his talking mouth and flopping him back over, landing on his back with a huge THUMP!
“Ohay, hath ith ith,” he mumbled with the eggplant stuck in his mouth. He quickly spat it out like a torpedo, then rose from the floor and wiped dust off his pants. “These tables are made of wood if I recall correctly…” He scanned the battlefield, his view travelling through several pieces of food flying in the air until his eyes landed on that girl from the track field. She was just as competitive as always, it appeared. He couldn’t but chuckle under his breath as he approached her, but the eggplants caused a severe obstacle on his way... ouch... ouch... ouch...
Right from behind, he proceeded to let his orange juice spill all over her hair. A dick move, to be fair, but she kind of asked for it, didn’t she? What about the wooden tables from earlier, though? That would wait for later - the time would come…

Honestly, Noah would gladly be anywhere else but the cafeteria, as he wasn't even particularly feeling the need for food at the moment. Nevertheless, the majority of the school's population would be right there during lunch hours, and it was technically his job to keep an eye on everything. Not that he was absolutely required to stay where the biggest crowds were, but he figured it was smart to at least look like he was invested in his job. Even though the loud chattering of students over lunch was very far from his list of favorite things in the world. In fact, thinking about how hard it would be to silence everyone in the room was exactly what the rough looking man was busy doing as he rested leaning himself against a wall to the side of some of the tables. It was a very tempting idea, he couldn't deny that. What he wouldn't give for a moment of peace.
Contrary to his hopes, peace was exactly the last thing he'd be getting today, and Noah found himself exasperatedly glancing towards a nearby table when he caught something about a food fight. Seriously? Now? Vaguely, he had to wonder whether he had jinxed himself just by his own thoughts, but in all fairness, that wouldn't help him change the fact that this was actually happening, and he was stuck in the same place. God definitely hated his guts, he was sure of that. Either way however, his interest in getting too involved in such an unsightly activity was quite low, and the man would grumble to himself quietly as he crossed his arms over his chest before opening his mouth to make a comment towards the people who were happily starting to join this. "I sincerely hope you lot will clean this up afterwards. I don't need to have more work thanks to somebody slipping on chunks of food and killing themselves on school grounds." He didn't think it was likely, but he didn't even want to think about having to deal with that for real anyway.

"So you see... It uhh.. It's because it was made from a monster." "Uhuh..." "A- And because of that it gives me the power to uh.. control water" "... Fascinating.." "And uhh. Oh! Yeah lightning too..." "... Woooooow..." "Some say those two don't really mix but I always find a way to make it wo-" "Heyyyy Claire! How's it going!"
Kaiden sighed heavily as he watched the cute girl get up and walk away towards her friend. Why did he even bother trying? They clearly had no interest in his awesome sword. He should've just stuck to what he was good at... And right now that was eating lunch. Looking down at the tray before him didn't provide too much incentive though. The slimy greenish brown brussel sprouts and the accompanying cafeteria meat didn't look all that appetizing, and neither did the smell that wafted through the air towards the boy's nostrils. The stench made him sick, so he decided that was probably not gonna be the best course of action for him right now. Honestly how hard was it to make some decent food in this school? Why did it always look like it was the unused waste from a slaughter house. Obviously a little more than frustrated with his current situation, Kaiden decided he'd just chill in his dorm for the rest of the break and play some video games. However, that was not going to happen.
As he was making his way towards the exit of the Cafeteria another boy quickly stood up on the table right next to him, cupped both his hands next to his mouth and yelled: "FOOD FIGHT!" Kaiden arched an eyebrow for a moment. He knew this kid. Larry if his memory served him right. He had seen him and his group of friends a few times over the years chilling across campus. "What are you trying to do, Larry? You're just gonna get in-" Kaiden was suddenly and abruptly cut off when a cream cheese bagel sung through the air and hit him directly in the face! Kaiden staggered for a moment before the object slowly slid off. "OH OKAY I SEE HOW IT IS!" Kaiden yelled throwing the disgusting tray upwards, before bringing his foot around to kick it straight towards his attacker! The kid instantly got a face full of slimy brussel sprouts and meat, but the impact of the metal pan was enough to send him tumbling to his back. After that it was complete chaos...
The entire room erupted in a frenzy as food flew left and right! Kaiden dove for cover behind a table just as a deadly (and unusually large) meatball barely missed his head! Grabbing an empty tray from the table, Kaiden quickly held it up as a shield as he attempted to get to the kitchen! The kitchen window that faced the cafeteria was lined with ammo! After narrowly dodging a few more fatal strikes, he heard another coming right for him! Instinctively, Kaiden swung around and hit the incoming eggplant with his food tray! It sent the vegetable soaring through the air and straight for his sister Zucchini...
Uh oh.

Ariya Vuldotter was in her dormroom, studying, when she heard the lunch bell ring. Her fox ears twitched slightly at the sound of the bell, and she placed a bookmark in her textbook. She closed up her textbook, and put all her stuff for her next period class into her blue bag. Then she got up and out of her chair, and grabbed her bag. She headed out the door, and walked downstairs. She exited the North Wing dormitory and walked into the main school building. She walked through a corridor, and then entered the school cafeteria. Her brown eyes scanned the menu. She saw that it had been updated, or that it was a new menu. She wasn't particularly paying that much attention, nor did she truthfully pay much attention to really anything for that matter.
Ariya walked over and grabbed a tray and asked for the spaghetti and garlic bread, which was her usual order. For as much as she loved planting flowers and tending to plants in her favorite spot int he outer courtyard, the half-Kitsune part of her was still carnivorous in spirit, and she enjoyed this kind of food. Once she was served, she took her food to the person at the cash register and paid for her food. Then she took her food tray and grabbed some utensils and walked over to an open table. She sat down, and reorganized her napkins and her tray so that her tray on was sitting on one of the napkins. This way, any crumbs would fall on the napkin, and not on the table. She picked up her fork, and began digging into her spaghetti, when she heard two words: "food fight!", and sighed exasperatedly to herself. Really? Can't I just eat my food in peace, please? she thought to herself in annoyance. She rolled her eyes, and tried to eat once more, but she saw some broccoli fly past her face, and a fox-like growl rose from her throat, in irritation. Now Ariya was not a violent person. She would never initiate a fight if she didn't have to, and would rather give someone a flower as a peace offering and make friends. However, she only had so much patience, and could still get sufficiently pissed off if provoked enough, and right now, this food fight was testing that patience. So Ariya just inhaled and exhaled in order to calm herself down, and tried to eat again. Although, if any more pieces of food hit her, she will start to lose it.

Ah yes, this was pretty fun. Chaos with food being thrown everywhere. This made for a more interesting lunch than normal. The best part? He wasn't the one who initiated it, so we wouldn't have to be the one to clean it up. It was their fault, not his. This was purely in self dense that he was throwing the non-intentionally phallic eggplants in everyone's faces. Why eggplants, one might ask? Well he was originally going to go with potatoes... But if one of those raw things hit a window it was defiantly going to break, so he went with the more soft action. Which proved to be just as effective. He managed to hit a few kids with them, even aimed one right in a boy's mouth! Pretty good aiming, if you asked him. Soon enough the entire room was up in an out roar with various foods sticking to the grounds, walls, and even the students themselves. It didn't look like anyone was going to stop it, not even Noah, which surprised the cat a little seeing as how he was the security guard. But if Felis was the guard? He wouldn't want to stop this either, so he wouldn't blame him. Spotting the guard just a bit away from him Felis the white feline ceased the eggplant portal and trotted on over to him, dodging a plate of gooey food which was thrown his direction with great ease given his cat flexes. Though a tiny bit had gotten on his fur in the process, grey and mucky, sticking to his body and standing out rather well due to his white fur. However he didn't mind too much, given how small it was. He would need to remember to lick it off later. Jumping onto Noah's shoulder with ease he balanced himself for a second to be sure he wouldn't fall off before he flashed the man a cheeky smile. "Ah, don't be suh a pateh pooper. Dis ish actually kinda funneh since we dont hash ta clean et up. See. wash dis." He instructed to the man, his mouth still filled with pizza. The feline, with a swish of his tail, summoned a banana peel above his head before catching it with the tail. He then raised his behind and flung the peel across the room where it landed just at the tip of Kaiden's foot. Meaning, if the boy stepped forward, he'd slip on it if not careful.
