Time And Setting
(Under Construction)
Situated on a large island commune of the coast of the Region, Starfall Academy is an independently governed institution addressing the conflicts between people and Pokemon. The Academy facilitates the safe integration of Pokemon and human societies, dispelling the myths and conflicts between the two whenever they can. In the year _____, the Pokemon trainer and Pokeball are barely whispers on the wind. Gyms and contests would be considered threats against one's brothers before they would be a common pastime, if they were considered at all. The future does not look bright for most Pokemon species, in a time where the the populations of common animals overtakes a tamed Pokemon easily fifty to one in human society. But should the schools' efforts prove successful, change may come.
As with any lofty goal however, change has not come easy. Nor has finding willing partners to aid the cause. In order to gain access to their current island location, the Academy was required to petition the aid of the neighboring country for use. The land was granted on the condition that the Academy would also open it's program for the rehabilitation of youths and criminals. Seeing as the Academy is in need of attending students, this was also accepted and it is now as common to a classroom entirely constituted of orphans or rogues as it is to see a standard board-and-tuition attendant. With this being the first year of formal operation for the Academy, the stakes are high along with the ambition of the school chairman. Only time will tell if this is an endeavor worth pursuing or if the elders were right to ban the mythic creatures and forgotten souls, both who find this place their last chance to be accepted back into society.
