The Academa first made its appearance in the Barony of Calafia around A.S. LII.

The Academa is a school of the sword, it is comprised primarily of students and educators under the overall authority of its Maestro. The students are expected to attend practice on a regular basis for their own improvement and wellbeing. And through the school it is necessary that there is a way to encourage and motivate one's self. To this end there is a system of advancement and acknowledgement built in to the School (like there is with all schools).


Masters and Scholars of the School

Members of the School wear garters adorned with the cross of the School, in their year's color. This signifies Membership and Personal Advancement.
