is there a rule on age bending?

as long as the faceclaim is 18+, no - not strictly.

let’s say you want to use a fc that’s older, but you want to age them down, that’s okay! as a lot of older fc’s have younger resources. 

i, admin b, use eva green for a character and have her as age 28 - when in reality eva is 39!

hope this helps!

so, just as an example, peter parker and morgan stark couldn't date because she's a student and he's a teacher despite her being older than him?

yes, that’s right - most of the students would have grown up with these teachers as much older figures, and the teachers generally do regard the students as ‘our kids’ or ‘kids of our friends’, not withstanding time travel shenigans.

we’ve also spoken to most of the muns playing teachers and they feel personally uncomfortable with this.

would shawn mendes be a eligible fc?

we’re going to tentatively say yes; however, we require the resources from him being used not be from music videos/singing/on stage.

do you guys allow reserving face claims?

we absolutely do ! just let us know what character you’d like to reserve along with the fc (for an oc, you can indicate whose parents they’re a kid of!)

Is there a reason the parents weren't able to go with the kids and just live in the other world?

hello!

the main reason that invitation was extended to the children and not the parents since they would be the ones who would be enrolled in the academy and would benefit from the training. the idea is that they should eventually return to their universe/timeline to defend it, so it’s not a one way trip to the past.

for the academy itself, while it’s huge and well funded, it isn’t really set up to take in a whole influx of non-students. 

hope that helps!

is there a list of classes or specializations?

Hello! Nope there isn’t, but you can see the list of what’s currently being taught under the taken page! 

Very broadly, we currently have skill based areas such as combat training, mystic arts/magic, mutant powers and espionage, and research/knowledge based areas like science, engineering, leadership/tactics and history. However, we’d love to see more and we’re pretty much open to whatever people want to go with! It doesn’t have to be fighting related either! 

We were aiming to go with without a structured curriculum seeing that everyone’s at different places and may want to pick up a more broad based set of skills or something more specific. 

Let us know if you have any suggestions or anything you’d really like to see!

if we're applying for a older fc as a child of a family, should they be a teacher?

nope – all children, even if they’re on the older side, would be enrolled in the academy as they never learned or were trained to become heroes in the other world since their parents would’ve all retired + settled down !!
