 _____________________________________________________________________________ Greetings potential students of SANCTUARY!
If you have made it here, then you like the many others
want to help us aid those who can not help themselves.
It has come to our attention that the balance of light and
dark in this universe is off kilter. The only weapon that
we know that can definitively hold the darkness back is a
cryptic device known as the keyblade.
However, if you are here, then chances are that's because
you could not call upon a keyblade of your own. Our Lumina
Cordis System facilitates the ability that helps hearts manifest
a keyblade.
The ability in question is called Resonance, which is the
ability to link your heart to another person's heart or object. This
ability is not unheard of, but with the help of the Lumina Cordis
we are able to amplify the power of our hearts by linking them
together. With the combined might of your heart and your friends
it is common for you to be able to summon weapons to fight the
darkness, such as the keyblade.
Its not just keyblade wielders we're looking for. We need people
that can also help assist in other ways. Are you ready to start
the journey that will craft your destiny? If so, please let us show
you around campus._____________________________________________________________________________ ‹ Salutations ≠ Walkthrough ≠ Antiquity ≠ Admittance ≠ Etiquette ≠ Lexicon ›

 SANCTUARY is where all students will take residence. Although
the institute may seem overwhelmingly large and impossible to navigate through,
there are a wide variety of warp gates that can easily take you from one area to
the other with relative ease. Be reminded, students, that all warp gates are not
open to everyone. Some require you to possess a key or a certain rank to enter.
Although the majority of SANCTUARY is open to students, there are some
areas you will not be permitted to enter.
Public Areas:
Library - The library is filled with knowledge and tools to understand other
world and creatures. This is an a favorite area for classes to take place. There
are many open rooms which can be used to teach or simply find quiet time.
Although class locations are the instructors choice, usually they take place here.
Many books and works can easily be downloaded onto your student account,
where they can be accessed at any of the many terminals around Sanctuary. It is
also possible if you so desire to take books or videos via your student account.
Keep in mind that there is a limit of 4 physical items from the library and no limit
on downloads via terminal. There are often small fees on late items, but in all
dorms there is a return area.
Training Area - The training area, as the name suggests is an area to find
physical challenges or enjoyment. This is an ideal place for students to spar and
practice their skills, although recently it has become an area for athletic games.
There are gravity settings which are powered via magitechnology The Training Area
is a common social area as it has swimming and athletic events. The area is even
equipped with relaxation areas such as heated rooms. Physical therapy is also
possible for slowly pacing yourself to get back in shape to do battle. Keep in mind
that there are many locker areas in which students may take care to their personal
hygiene before returning to the dorms.
Virtual Center - This area is the backbone of the V.I.N System. There are
various personal that deal with the maintenance and upgrade procedures that keep
the V.I.N up and running. On top of taking care of the V.I.N, this area takes care
of all technical needs of the student body. Terminals are available in all dorms, but
the Virtual Center has other functions. Nanomachine enhancements as well as
other devices are available here. Nano repairs are also done here, though there may
be a fee depending on the device in question. This is also an area that regulates what
students and faculty do on the network. Also, students can access the V.I.N Space
Training Simulation from here. Special porting is needed to initialize V.I.N Space.
Training there earns the students points based on the simulation scenario. For the
time being these scenarios are: One X One Battle, Team Battle, Mission Replay,
Solo Sparing
Areas Within the Virtual Center:
- Mainframe Facility: This area holds the core of the Virtual Center.
The Mainframe is where everything can be accessed. Statistical Data concerning
the Lumina Cordis and the Surrogate. Total Information in the VIN. You name it.
However, the Mainframe writes to a backup information storage center that only comes
online to transfer the backup data. Otherwise, the information backup remains offline.
Gummi Port - This area is used to travel to other worlds, there are gummi
ships that can take you anywhere one will need. It is advised that all students
learn to fly a gummi ship, as it is a vital necessity in order to do missions alone.
Armory - This area is filled with equipment and even clothing. Although it was
created more for function, it has taken a slightly different route. It is possible to buy
clothing and food here, making it something of a shopping area. Custom weapons
can be made here although all things in the armory are not free, it is common for
higher ranking students to visit in order to make sure they have the finest equipment
available.
Medical Pavilion - This area is for treating special cases that require more than
simple spell work to heal. There are many qualified professionals who will assist you in
times of injury. Though most issues can resolved with rest and magic, there are some
that require personal care.
Dining Hall - This area is where all students frequent to get their food throughout
the day while on campus. This space also functions like a lounge in the off hours
between breakfast, lunch and dinner.
F.A.D.E Construct Import This is the main object-to-data conversion area for students
to transfer their weapons, items, or vehicles into their personal F.A.D.E Units.
Restricted areas:
Detention Block - This area is for keeping dangerous enemies or students under
lock and key. This area has is equipped with an antimagic field that can sap all magical
energy from prisoners and incredible gravity protection. This area is incredibly dangerous
and many could die from the system made to keep prisoners from escaping.
Chariot Hall - The pride and joy of SANCTUARY reside here. The few elite are
only capable of entering this hall, even SANCTUARY staff may not enter here. The
entrance to the Aracelis is located here.
Sol Sanctum - This is the Sanctum where the Headmaster resides along
with the Lumina Cordis System. The only ones who have clearance are Chariot
Level Students and the Virtual Center Administrators.
The Vault - All information regarding the vault is classified.
Officer Quarters - SANCTUARY staff reside here, there are many who
regulate the system or oversee students. All officers may or may not have abilities
of high ranking students, but respect will be given to all officers nonetheless. All
officers can easily be identified by their uniforms. Stealing a uniform is not only
prohibited, it is not possible without alerting other authorities of SANCTUARY.
Standard Dorms:
All students will be given a homeroom inside a dorm. The basis on the dorm is simply
age. Roommates will be within 3 years of your age and can be of any gender. As
studies have shown that males and females are better kept when both are present,
all rooms are coed. Indeed unscrupulous behavior will not be allowed and sexual
harassment/exposure will be not be tolerated and will be dealt with the full extent
of the world law.
Valor dorm- year 1-3 students
Wisdom dorm-year 3-6 students
Master dorm- year 6-9 students
Final dorm- 9+ year students
Anti Dorm -
This dorm is for special case students, like you. Indeed this dorm is even
questionable whether it is part of SANCTUARY and the students may not be
similar to you while you stay here. As nobodies and heartless, they must follow
their own rules and conduct. Absolutely no combat is permitted and you will need
to obtain a permit in order to enter and leave this dorm. Spies have tried to use
this dorm and countermeasures are in place in order to upkeep the safety of our
students. Training methods differ drastically and home upkeep is also customized
based on the students. Keep in mind this dorm has been frowned upon by many
students and it would be best to keep to yourself. It is possible to complete missions,
as other students do. It is possible for certain students to be transferred into another
dorm if the situation is called upon.

 SANCTUARY began as the dream of two men; brothers actually. They
were two of the first beings mentioned in recorded history that have ever
received what they called the "Genuine Resonance" qualification from Kingdom
Hearts. It is this special type of resonance that offers a direct connection to the
heart of all worlds; Kingdom Hearts. It was this qualification that allows the user
who possesses it to call for the Keyblade. Until the Lumina Cordis only heroes
of the strongest heart could wield a keyblade.
Shortly after their discovery, an immensely powerful heartless managed to open
the door to darkness which released many incredibly strong heartless minions
throughout the cosmos. Several others along with the brothers managed to defeat
this heartless fiend and seal the door to darkness. These other champions of light
were the first students of the brothers. However, they barely escaped the battle
with their lives. They knew that there was a chance that the seal might not hold
and that the heartless that were released throughout the cosmos would have to be
defeated as well.
So they began to take preventative measures against this. They had discovered
that on various worlds existed slip stream points, or portals that allowed for seamless
transportation from one point to another. Using these points, they began traveling to
other worlds to recruit assistance. They more they traveled, the more it became
apparent that there were more worlds than they could have ever imagined that have
been afflicted by the trauma the darkness brings. But, as far as they knew, they were
the only ones who had the aid of the keyblades and that meant that they were the only
force of light that stood against the darkness. They knew even with their power, those
numbers were not in their favor. They would have to find others who would be willing to
commit themselves to the pursuit of the light to vanquish the darkness. Thus the idea
of an academy was pitched and SANCTUARY went from being a dream to an idea in motion.
As word of the institution spread throughout the worlds, most of them wanted to contribute
whatever they could to realize the dream that was SANCTUARY. The collective effort of
hearts and minds brought about the creation of the United World Alliance (UWA). Many
brilliant minds collectively gathered and worked on the one problem that needed to be
answered if the institution was going to be a success. That problem was that without
any concrete effective means of fighting the darkness, they would still not have a means
to make a stand. Thus, the integrity of the resonance was brought into question. Many
toiled over how to help others achieve the resonance without actually having the qualification
to perform one. The brothers who shared the genuine resonance suggested that they use
their hearts for the good of the others.
The Lumina Cordis System followed shortly. Literally meaning, "light of the heart" this
system that would be able to use the qualification of the genuine resonance that the brothers
had with Kingdom Hearts coupled with a resonance they both maintained with the worlds
heart. However, during the initial tests, it was found out that one of the brothers did not have
what was needed to sustain a perfect sync over drive resonance. It was around this time that
the one brother who could not make the system work with his heart just up and left
SANCTUARY.
When the Lumina Cordis was set up, they began working on a way to integrate the system
into all students who would be attending SANCTUARY. It was the idea of several
scientist that nano technology be implemented to help the integration of the system.
The nanomachines would be injected into the students and that would allow for them to
connect to the Lumina Cordis and perform a resonance. But, it was forseen that
without a way to help manage this system, it would eventually turn chaotic. To help
manage the workload of students, the VIRGIL INTERFACE NETWORK was
constructed. The V.I.N started off as a simple A.I construct that helped managed
the beta testers. It was through the assistance of the V.I.N in conjunction with the
Lumina Cordis System that helped make SANCTUARY a great success.
SANCTUARY grew in both numbers and prestige over time. They even found
new ways for students to obtain keyblades.
With the power provided by the Lumina Cordis system. As more heartless were
defeated and more worlds were saved. Hearts would be linked with the network
and increase the power of the system. The system was tested and the limits of
the hearts seemed nonexistant. With all the systems in place, SANCTUARY had
finally become a fully functioning institution that was the only place in all the worlds
that had the ability to "create" keyblade wielders. It was always the goal of
SANCTUARY to produce beings who would be able to fight the darkness. But
SANCTUARY acknowledged that it did not have the right to horde all of the keyblade
users and other defenders of the light. It was the will of the UWA that graduates of
SANCTUARY be given the choice to either stay or go to a world of their choice that
needed keyblade assistance. In doing this, the strength of SANCTUARY was
spread throughout the cosmos.

 Choose Your Destiny;
Entrance Exam.
All students are presented with three choices when they first enter SANCTUARY.
These choices are not permanent by any means. We here at SANCTUARY do not believe that
any one person should be confined to any one thing for any length of time. From these
choices will set into motion the events that will ultimately lead to the outcome of your
enrollment at SANCTUARY. All students will undoubtedly be gifted with unique talents
that will aid them in the choosing of their initial path. But keep in mind, these are
only mild guidelines.
Which path will you choose to help craft your destiny?
Will you choose the path of the Key Wielder?
Fierce and brave, you hold a devastating power within you.
Your strength will be beyond compare.
Is this the power you seek?
Will you choose the path of the Spellbinder?
Wise and cautious, you hold the power to change the tides of war.
Your intuition will be second to none.
Is this the power you seek?
Will you choose the path of the Defender?
Rock steady and vigilant, you hold the courage to stand against all fears.
Your resolve will be impregnable.
Is this the power you seek? Reworking the Profile Skeleton Structure.

 {`o1]: /Gaia TOS/
This Should Already Be Known. If you don't know, familiarize yourself with
the contents. Like Gaia, this RP has standards. We all need to concur with
the set standard to avoid any messy mishaps, savy?
{`o2]: /Literacy/
If you are reading this far, you have taken the interest to understand was it
required of you. Literacy implies that you know how to spell and have control
over your own grammar. It also means you know how to advance storyline; not
just your own, but the comprehensive story arc that the Role Play has set into
motion. Coherent thought and description (to the best of one's ability) is
something to strive for.
{`o3]: /Play Fair/
Don't let the fact that this is a Kingdom Hearts Role Play fool you into thinking
we can have characters without flaws. We all would like our character to be in
the spotlight, however this depends solely on your role playing ability coupled
with your created character. There will not be any Mary Sues or Gary Stu's
amongst us. No God Modding either.
{`o4]: /Be Dedicated/
I don't and will never ask for the sun and the moon from anyone. All I ask is
that if you took the time to read everything and actually write out a
comprehensive character and then stop posting or never post at all, it will
make me sad. The post minimum will be once a week. I know that people
have real lives that clash with our Gaian pursuits. If something comes up and
you foresee yourself being inactive on Gaia for a period of time, PM and we will
work something out so that you can still continue. However, do not just up and
leave without saying anything.
{`o5]: /Respect/
We are all intelligent human beings here. Everyone's idea's and opinions will
be valued as if they were your own. This means no flaming or outrageous name
calling for no apparent reason. We can all get along, right? I don't want to invoke
the wrath of the TOS.
{`o6]: /Posting/
I would prefer you post in size nine or ten. I don't want the RP to look cluttered when
glancing over it. This also means that any and all OOC comments go directly to the
OOC page. Keep signatures out of the RP as well, as they often break from the
page continuity.
{`o7]: /Taking Initiative/
That's right, this is a Literate Role Play and with that, you are required to make
things happen of your own accord. Meet people have way! Make your post in
response to another, if possible and leave it open for someone to respond to you!
If you have ideas on how we can make this plot better in any way shape or form,
please bring it up in the OOC! We want this to be a fun experience for everyone!
Participate as much as possible to make this story be all it can be!

 Here you can find the listing of any
and all terminology used for this roleplay.
Axis Tilt Theory - This is the theory that suggests that both the light and
the darkness through out all hearts are interconnected. Depending on the
strength of the total amount of light or darkness in all hearts that are connected
to kingdom hearts makes the total strength of any wielder either rise or diminish.
Even though Kingdom Hearts is essentially the source of both facets of power, it
does not control either. Kingdom Hearts can not sustain a state of consistent
equilibrium. There will always be more of either facet at any point in time. However,
because of the current wielders, this inconsistent equilibrium has rested at a level
that is manageable at least for the current time. The Axis of power is subject to
shift at any time.
Dead Zone - This zone is out of the permissible range of the Lumina Cordis
System. At the last check, there are still worlds within the Dead Zone that contain
life. However, because it is so far outside of the range that the risk of going and not
having even the Surrogate System work is too much to chance. The Dead Zone is
rumored to harbor the infamous Heartless Lords as well. There isn't much fact to
back up that claim, but that's the word on the streets.
VIN Credit- The universal credit, munni, is the basic reward for missions. Based on
the success rate of missions accepted & completed, each student can earn munni.
Accepting difficult missions will earn you more munni, but it is not recommend by
instructors to do so. However if you can join a party that can get the mission done,
the academy will not hold it against you. The munni that is earned by completing
missions is stored as credit in your personal V.I.N portal. In this manner students
of the academy will not need to carry physical munni this way. Each student is
assigned V.I.N tag that functions as a debit card of sorts. Various items can be
purchased via the V.I.N in the Virtual Center.
Drive Form - The ability to Drive is possible with extremely powerful resonance
between different individuals. The concept Drive is an extremely advanced technique
often used completely by accident by new students. Using Drive one is capable of
fusing hearts into one body and gaining power they would normally not have access
to. Drive Forms can be taught as a class if one were to volunteer for it, but keep in
mind that the VIN will prevent you from using drive if you were to do so and fail. The
ability of Drive is difficult to access and even harder to master, but once mastered it
can take a resonance between two or more people to a whole new level.
Forbidden Leys - A group of points within the conveyance that have been
deemed off limits by any and all personal. There is little to know information about
the destination points of these leys because they all lead to areas within the Dead Zone.
These Leys were vetoed for use by the Headmaster himself.
Leyline Conveyance - The Leylines, as they came to be known, allowed for the
near instantaneous transmission from one point to another. Usually used for off world
travel. Each ley are essentially the alignment points for inter space portal based
planetary transportation. Leyline travel , however the navigating and mapping of all
coordinates of the existing Leys has been of the utmost importance to the Unite World
Alliance. Because of the tremendous support that SANCTUARY offers to all worlds,
it is vital that the coordinates of new leys be transmitted to SANCTUARY for mission
Intel. They Leyline Conveyance itself is a terminal port where individuals are usually
transported to main Leyline Conveyance ports of other worlds. The Leyline Map is
constantly being revamped with the discovery of new leys on various worlds. When
the information is transmitted and processed, it is then uploaded to the core V.I.N system.
In this manner, all connected to the V.I.N will always been informed of new findings on
new worlds.
Leyline Use. The students have priority for leyline use over all other individuals.
The technology used to make the Ley Gates function corresponds with the functions
of the nanomachines that the students use to perform their resonance. When a
student approaches the ley gate, the gate automatically responds via the communication
from the nanomachines to the Gate Terminal. Using the information on the V.I.N they
can call up the address coordinates of the world and gate they want to travel to. The
LeyGate locks in the address coordinates and the students are transmitted to their
destination.
Lumina Cordis System - The term means "light of the heart." This system is
the primary means for the students to actuate their resonance. The system was
powered entirely through the genuine resonance the head master has with Kingdom
Hearts, until the idea came across that one man's resonance alone would not work.
So a system was developed called Lumina Cordis. This produces a powerful
resonance which links all hearts in the area together with the power of light. What
makes this resonance so special and powerful is the fact that not only students are
linked, but hearts of worlds and every heart in them. The entire UWA is currently in
range of the Lumina Cordis and with it SANCTUARY has become a dominant figure
to the worlds. The collective state of hearts yields a perfect sync overdrive
resonance. The system was put in place to help simulate what the heart goes
through to perform a resonance capable of summoning a keyblade. It was an
observation of the headmaster that there were many willing hearts that could not
grasp the qualification of the genuine resonance, the type of resonance needed
to wield a keyblade. The Lumina Cordis system was implemented to give those
who were willing the chance to use their own strength to aid in the war against
the darkness and it's servants. The system has near limitless potential to spread
from world to world as it gains power.
The Headmaster was the original one to allow multiple keyblade uses as he had a
perfect resonance with his world and his keyblade. His resonance is often referred
to as the "Gate to Light" which channels the power of kingdom hearts indirectly
through the hearts of all individuals connected to the Lumina Cordis System. In the
event of system exhaustion, all individuals connected to the system will be unable
to perform their resonance unless they learned to do so without the Lumina Cordis.
If they were currentlyresonating, they will be force out of their resonance back into a
state of normality. If that situation should arise, SANCTUARY has also implemented
the Surrogate System.
Surrogate System - This system boots if a drastic drop in the sync ratio (how many
students connected to the Lumina Cordis system at any one time) is calculated or sensed.
It operates as the fail safe backup to the Lumina Cordis System. The Surrogate System
initializes the forced actualization of the main objective of the nanomachines; A Re-Resonation
Manual Hard Boot. In actuality, this forced resonance shifts the overall power output to its
maximum. Because there are so many individuals connected to the Lumina Cordis and use
it to perform resonances all the time, the backup system that did not use the power of
kingdom hearts as a source of strength had to be figured out. The technology that drives
the Surrogate System are its perpetual motion energy generators or PMEG's. This feat of
technical brilliance allows the system to convert naturally occurring motion in nature into
usable energy. Even with the system running at its max capacity, it could still last for a
week before burning out. However, if the Surrogate system reaches dangerous output
levels it will send a warning through the V.I.N to all students. Before burnout, a forced
system override cool down will occur. Essentially, the Surrogate System will shutdown
and if the Lumina Cordis isn't up for whatever reason...you get the idea.
Nanomachines - These machines come in a small injection that all students
receive when they are admitted to SANCTUARY. It is these machines that allow for
many of the systems to function in relation to the student body. The nanomachines
provide the uplink to the Lumina Cordis System, Surrogate System, and the
Virgil Interface Network. However, they must be maintained to ensure proper
functionality. The Virtual Center on campus helps regulate and maintain them
as well as offer stimulants and enhancements.
Perpetual Motion Energy Generator - Often referred to as PMEG's, these devices
came into being to help support and stabilize the amount of power needed to sustain
the Surrogate System.
Resonance - The ability to sync or fuse two or more hearts together in perfect harmony.
There has been much debate on the nature of the resonance. What science found
out when studying the resonance qualification was that the heart of man beats in tune
with the pulse of the heart of the world innately at the moment of conception. But,
somewhere along the lines of life, the innate connection that everyone should be able to
have with their world fades away. People forget the power which lies dormant in their
heart and never realize their untapped potential. However, there are those who are aware
of their strength of heart. For those individuals, they possess the pre-requisites to call upon
the power of the heart. It is this ability and power that is called the Resonance. The
resonance results in a "passage way to the heart" which takes the form of the legendary
Keyblade. The keyblade is a manifestation of your own hearts power, crafted by the will
of Kingdom Hearts and garnished with the resolve of the heart. It is this weapon that
seems to be the most effective in driving back the darkness. As the resonance studies
furthered, they found that with different hearts came different Keys. Each key will vary
from person to person not to mention the innate abilities that are already tied within the
heart itself. All keys have the potential to lock or unlock the hearts of worlds to both light
or darkness. However, it takes special keys to do the same to the hearts of man. The
most important thing to understand about the resonance is that it can only be realized by
those who understand to to wield a keyblade means to walk tumultuous and tenacious
path of putting ones own heart on the line in the pursuit of the light against the darkness.
Types of Resonance
- "Genuine / "Blessed" Resonance - This resonance is both the strongest
and rarest not to mention the basis for the Lumina Cordis System. This resonance is
the result of a direct connection of the human heart to kingdom hearts bypassing the
heart of the world. The power derived from this resonance exists outside the bounds
of the Lumina Cordis System. *Those who posses a Genuine Resonance are not
connected to the Lumina Cordis System*
- Heart to Heart (Human to World) Resonance - This resonance is the first type of
transformation and the basis for the most of the students at SANCTUARY. This
resonance type simulates the connection of the human heart with the heart of the
world in conjunction with the Lumina Cordis system. Because the power of the
resonance is not directly from Kingdom Hearts, it comes with a limit of sorts. At
admission, each student is inoculated with a serum that contains nanomachines
that have an up link to the Lumina Cordis system. This allows all students to
monitor their strengths and abilities.
- Heart to Heart ( Human to Human ) Resonance - This resonance is the second
type of transformation for the students of SANCTUARY. This resonance is the
connection of one human heart with another human heart in conjunction with the
Lumina Cordis System. Because this resonance is not with kingdom hearts, or the
heart of the world, it comes with a limit of sorts. However, it also comes with certain
benefits as well. This resonance is more frail than the others because it relies on the
sync ratio of the students attempting it. At admission, each student is inoculated with
a serum that contains nanomachines that have an up link to the Lumina Cordis system.
This allows all students to monitor their strengths and abilities.
- "Overdrive" Resonance - This resonance is another special type resonance. It is
special because unlike the other resonances that require two hearts, this requires more
than two. This resonance can be the combination of a heart with the heart of the world
as well as kingdom hearts or a two human hearts with the worlds heart or even three
human hearts. Like the human to human heart resonance, this resonance type is also
frail because the sync ratio needs to be perfect to pull off. If there is any wavering, the
resonance might fail or the individuals included might not be able to use their true power.
Each resonance is different and unique and yields a different result. All results of this
resonance have not been mapped.
Resonance Burnout Protocol - There are individuals who might have strong hearts,
but lack the qualification to perform a genuine resonance. If that is the case, those who
have these strong hearts still have to rely on the Lumina Cordis System which grants a
pseudo-qualification to manifest an artificial keyblade. In this case, a heart might call
upon more power than the nanomachines can channel collectively at any one given time.
If the demand of the heart supersedes the supply of power the nanomachines can provide,
the student will forcibly disconnect from all systems as a precaution because the
nanomachines might potentially burn out. In the event of a burnout, it is mandatory for
the student to go to the virtual center for nano repair as soon as possible. In the event
of a Resonance Burnout, your personal VIN portal initializes a PANIC beacon. This is
transmitted directly to the VIN core and is redistributed to all individuals connected to
the VIN. It is in this manner that if you can not reconnect to the VIN system, that a
Search and Recover team will be sent to your last known coordinates for recon.
United World Alliance - The United World Alliance came into existence as a
result of trying to get SANCTUARY started. With the aid of the Leylines, the
Headmaster traveled to a great many worlds that came to side with the idea of
SANCTUARY. Often referred to as the UWA, it is the collective of worlds that
have unified in the effort of holding the darkness at bay. It is an expansive network
that spans countless worlds that all share information and resources to achieve this
common goal. One of the goals that has always been a part of SANCTUARY is the
discovering of new worlds and getting them to join the UWA. Usually, when a distress
call is answered, it is from a ailing world that needs assistance. Also, worlds that are
within the UWA charter can receive permanent keyblade assistance. This means
simply that when a student of SANCTUARY achieves a rank of "A" they are allowed
to return home (if their home is still exists) and protect it with the power of the
keyblade or they can choose a word that needs protecting.
Virgil Interface Network - This now vast network is an invention of the academy
scholars. The V.I.N is an A.I construct that is accessible to any student who attends
the academy. The nanomachines that each student have injected in them can collectively
generate interactive holographic imagery that is a interpretation of the information stored
with in the Virgil Interface Network. The V.I.N exists to provide essential guidance for all
students. It is also used to monitor the progress of all students on their selected path
within the academy.
Flatspace - A created singularity within a compressed dimensional
threshold that exists inside and object that can be infinitely deep.
F.A.D.E - The F.A.D.E is an extremely complex tool used for increased storage.
What makes it complex is that it utilizes dimensional space compression technology.
F.A.D.E stands for Flatspace Assembly Disassembly Equipment. The first generation of this equipment
resembles a bracelet that students can wear around their wrists, bracelet, anklet, or even necklace.
The F.A.D.E converts data stored in the F.C.I [ FADE Construct Import ] into physical objects once more.
Currently, only objects imported into the FCI can be exported.
Items created within the FCI that were not already physical objects can not be exported.
Access Parameters
Here you will find a short list of parameters that define the levels of control
embedded within the VIN. This is by no means a complete list of parameters.
Level 1 Access: Given to Rank D-C students.
Level 2 Access: Given to Rank B-S students.
Level 3 Access: Given to the Administrators that
monitor, maintain, and upgrade the VIN.
Level 4 Access: Headmaster Access.

It's been years since SANCTUARY has been established. The United World Alliance has relied heavily upon the support of SANCTUARY and its students because they have become peacekeepers of sorts. With their unconventional and highly successful methods of battling the darkness, it is in part of their efforts that the United World Alliance has been able to expand as far as it has. Because of this SANCTUARY has slowly gained recognition across multiple worlds that are both within and outside of the United World Alliance.
SANCTUARY has taken every precaution to make sure they accept any and all individuals through their academy doors. These individuals can be any age, any gender, from any world as long as they fight for the light. The school has taken care to make certain that they accept new individuals to join their academy. Once accepted to SANCTUARY, students are given the tools necessary to defend all hearts and in time hopes to defeat the darkness permanently .
Due to the nature of the school, a student can appear at any time and be sent to classes immediately upon arrival. The classes are filled with different ages and it is not unexpected to see a new student every day and it's possible to see a new student enter within the next hour. Because of this open door policy to entrance the steady growth of SANCTUARY is guaranteed. The United World Alliance is now constantly expanding as world after world can be saved due to the efforts of SANCTUARY.
However, as the darkness is threatened by warriors of the realm of light, enemies rise up from the shadows to challenge them. Across the cosmos heartless are gathering in numbers, be it fear or desperation, they turn now to an ancient enemy of light.... the heartless lords. The heartless lords are a group of the most powerful heartless, who ordinarily stand alone and keep their distance from the keyblade and its allies. However, as SANCTUARY expands they find themselves at a point to where remaining in the shadow is no longer possible. The heartless lords lay quiet for now, but soon they will retaliate against this new looming threat.

 [This is a class form. Basically if you want a certain class to exist in
the story we can make it happen. It’s possible to miss something in classes
and you guys to see something we didn’t. Due to this we are going to make a
class form for anything you think SANCTUARY should have… odds are story
wise it would have it. Also you may suggest events with this... dances... tournaments?]Class Title:
Class Purpose:
Teacher: (Npc or character?)
Notable students: (optional)
Is there anything your character will gain from this to help on missions?:
Other info: [This skeleton is for a mission suggestion you might want to
see pop up on a board for other characters to see. Please know that there is
no limit to creativity and try anything you like. Write as much as you want or
if you don't know something, that's fine. If you fill one out PM DarkInsigniae,
0er0 or Viafer. Hopefully be posted shortly.]
*Username:
*World:
Rank: (D easiest, C easier, B normal, A dangerous, S extremely dangerous)
Requirements: (What skills will be needed for this mission? Example: diplomatic skills, fighting [magic/ melee?] skills or tracking skills.)
Recommended number: (how many should go?)
Info: (What data do they tell you about this mission)
*Plot ideas: (What do you want to happen on the mission, feel free to go into as much or little details as you *like. Any hopes? Anything else you didn’t mention, speak now or hold your peace.)
*Reward: Pay? Items? Abilities?
*= is optional to be publicly viewed.

Here I am going to go more in depth on certain aspects of the RP that will give you all a better picture of what things are and how they work.
Virgil Interface Network - *The Virgil in the name is me giving homage to the Virgil in Dante's Inferno. Virgil guided Dante through the rings of hell. And so, I figured who better than to guide our students through the depths of darkness than our own Virgil.*
Virgil is the construct that makes up the interface network. He is an A.I that is ever expanding along with the collective intelligence of all the individuals connected to it. When Virgil first went online, his awareness was very little and his responses sounded more automated and programed than anything else. However, present day Virgil sounds and speaks just like anyone else. He has his own thoughts and feelings about certain subjects concerning life, the pursuit of happiness, the nature of the darkness, etc. Students can interact with virgil several different ways. The quicker of them all is to access him through your personal VIN portal and do a data search. However, because the Nanomachines allow the students to emulate interactive holographic projections, the students can also manifest a holographic projection of Virgil in real time and space. *For reference, star trek voyager anyone?* However, he can only physically interact with students as he is connected to them but he can not interact with anything that he isn't connected to. I.E, Virigl can't pick up a rock, feel the wind, or eat. However, he can pilot gummiships and program the leylines for instance.
Lumina Cordis System - This is the most important and precious merging of technology and magic known to date. The system was supposed to be made for both of the brothers. However, in the preliminary beta runs, it was discovered that only one brother would be accepted into the system dynamics. That brother is known by all students as Headmaster Apollo. The reason as to why the system took to him and not his brother is still unknown. However, the system works as a collaborative effort between the Headmaster and the students. The nanomachines that the students have provide the initial uplink to the Lumina Cordis. When the connection is made, a recall loop is initialized which keeps the connection between the student and the headmaster alive. The Headmaster is the only individual on record to be able to maintain a perfect sync ratio with the Genuine Resonance. That essentially means that his heart and Kingdom Hearts had such a strong connection, that the "pathway to the light" that opened up between them was able to stay open. The system effectively harvests this incalculable amount of energy and divides it amongst the students. It is in this manner that students who were not able to summon a keyblade on their own, can now summon a keyblade. They share the properties of a Genuine Resonance even though it is not by the means of their own heart. It is the hope that all students will one day be able to perform a Genuine Resonance with Kingdom Hearts one day. The Lumina Cordis System is that hope.
Surrogate System - This system was initially meant to be the back up. Then after various testing, it was decided that all the hope could not be placed in this system in case the Lumina Cordis went down. Thus, the protocol was shifted to fail safe. The main Surrogate system is located on campus, however many don't even know where it is. It was announced that a Surrogate Extension is being developed and constructed in space along with the New Orbiting Space station that houses a special Leyline Connection as well as an impressive Gummi Docking Port.
VIN Functions
Recorder - This function activates when a missions is accepted by students. What this function entails is that it records any and all visual and audio information that is seen by the student on the mission in question. Student observations are also recorded and maintained on the students personal VIN portal for quick access. However, all information recorded is inputed into the VIN Repository. This information is used to help with the Scanner function as well as the 'Mission Replay' function that can be accessed in the Virtual Center's Simulation room.
*The Mission Replay function acts very much like the program photosynth. Except, instead of images, it uses a collage of over laping video imagery to compose one seamless interactive medium. There is no manual difficulty setting to the Mission Replay. It acts just as if it were a real mission. That being said, Missions can only be replayed if you have the Rank or are accompanied by a student or teacher who allows you to access a mission that is of a higher rank. However, in this manner students can practice for harder missions that will eventually be coming their way. Also, because no two missions are ever the same, the Mission Recorder is used to study and analyze different tactical strategies that will help the students on the battlefield. Students have been injured on Mission Replays.
Repository Access - SANCTUARY houses the VIN Repository. While other worlds have branches of the VIN, SANCTUARY is the core of that system. The Repository holds any and all information that any student has ever come across on any mission ever accepted. The repository is always expanding with new information and rarely do students now come across something that is not stored in the system. In the case of a "No Information Present" error, a Red flag is sent up and is noted by the Virtual Center Admins, who watch and monitor all information coming into the VIN Mainframe. This information that has been red flagged will be researched and the findings are sent to higher ranking students as well as faculty members to research.
Scanner - The Scanner function acts as a means to identify any and all aspects of a mission that students might come across. What the Scanner does is it cross references any scanned media with any and all data located in the VIN Repository. The information is then either dictated by Virgil, or is displayed as text in various holographic window interfaces.
Frontier List - This can be accessed from the VIN portal. It will list both active and inactive missions and who is involved with each of them. Missions can be accepted from this location.
-> Over time, the VIN program syncs with your body. In this manner, the use of thoughts alone will be enough to access and control your personal VIN portal. <-
...More to come.
