So, the old RP died, so I'm going to try to resurrect this.
The year is 1353 in the nation of Jishin, a wasteland of desert in which are a scattering of cities. From all around the world Magicians come to the Three Pyramids. The first Pyramid, the Laborama Pyramid, is where the magicians work and meet. It is the largest pyramid. The second pyramid is the Dormishan Pyramid, where the magicians live, sleep, and conduct leisure activity. The last pyramid, the Legatan Pyramid, is where the Three Pyramids Academy is placed. Here the magicians learn magic and prepare for life in the other two pyramids. The Magicians study many arts:

Layout:
The Whole Academy is located inside the Legatan Pyramid, besides physical activities which are held in the desert outside. The top five levels of the Pyramid are dedicated to accomodation, with the Magistri and Didaskaloi on the highest level, students of each year in the next three levels, and common rooms on the bottom of these levels. Lower than this is the dining hall, where the students eat. Below this the classrooms are situated, which stretches down to ground level. Underground, there is a swimming pool sterylised and cooled by magic.
Magics:
Basic Magic: which involves the use of the elements, and the combination.
Rune Magic: Which involves the using of metal and stone runes.
Daemon Magic: Which utilises the Spirits of the Underworld.
Necromancy: The animation of inanimate objects and the resurrection of the Undead. This is limited to a select few students who prove to excel in certain studies. If you have read include a green letter 'i' in your Sign-Up

The Castes:
Once the students go into the pyramid, they will choose which caste they want to go into:
Warriors: Who dress in red robes. They fight for the state or as mercenaries.
Healers: Who dress in green robes. They go around healing people and finding new cures to diseases.
Crafters: Who dress in brown robes. They perform ordinary jobs where magic might be useful, such as building or farming.
Alchemists: Who dress in blue robes. They are the magical scientists, making discoveries.
Diplomats: Who dress in yellow robes. They act as advisors to kings and emperors, politicians and ambassadors.
Necromancers: Who dress in black. They are by far the smallest caste and it contains the necromancers.
The Aniati: Who dress in white: They are the caretakers of the Pyramids. They make many of the decisions of the Pyramids and are most often the Leader of the Pyramids, The High Seat.
