Classes
Brawling To most people, Brawling is considered a
primitive, outdated course. This, however, is a grave misconception. To
major in Brawling, students must harness latent powers stored deep
within their bodies. Only students demonstrating high strength and
coordination test scores qualify for this course, as Brawlers have
shunned all armed conflict, choosing instead to embrace combat in its
purest, basest form.
Brawlers can choose to minor in Fist
Strikes, where they learn to channel their kinetic energy into
lightning-quick pugilistic attacks. These Brawling students who focus
on hand speed tend to rely on the violent volume of their rapid-fire,
two-fisted strikes to knock out their opponents. In contrast, Brawlers
who minor in Kick Strikes concentrate on their kicking power, which may
be slower and more deliberate, but deal more damage. For these
Brawlers, one spinning leg strike, delivered with powerful precision,
is often all they need to end a fight.
Students of this course
will eventually become masters of close range combat, the brutal poetry
of their movement a sight to behold. That is, if you can see it.
Swordsmanship
The Art of the Sword, once banished for its role
in numerous bloody conflicts, has been reinstated in the schools’
curriculum. However, only applicants who tested highly in both strength
and agility can apply to this course.
Students in this
course must develop not only their strength but their dexterity as
well, in order to perform the various, intricate, high-stakes swordplay
demanded by their discipline, where the slightest error in judgment can
have dire consequences not only for their opponents, but for themselves
as well.
By honing their dexterity, some Swordsmen choose to
minor in Blades, using these lighter, shorter weapons to create a
higher defense radius for themselves, where they can thrust and parry
with ease and flow, even as they sacrifice low base damage.
Some
Swordsmen, on the other hand, choose to minor in Broadswords. This
minor limits their defensive abilities but also multiplies their
offensive output, so that when an opponent does meet the end of their
blade, the blow is swift, clean, and most of all, final.
Either
minor is equally formidable in higher grade levels but be warned—for
those who major in Swordsmanship, theirs is a life lived not only on
the edge but by the edge.
Archery
[center]The course of Archery is perhaps the most
artistic of the four courses, an enchanting visual symphony of flying
arrows and twanging bows.
Applicants to Archery must show high dexterity and agility test scores to pass the course.
Archery
students can choose to minor in Short Bows, which produce higher
minimum damage to start off with and are extremely accurate; or Long
Bows, which deal higher maximum damage at higher grade levels but can
be prone to misses.
Graduates of Archery boast that the mark of a true archer is that they never miss one.
Shamanism
The fusion between martial arts and Qi-- the
energy that flows through and around the human body, physically and
psychically— is a difficult idea to comprehend for outsiders to the
practice of Shamanism, but for those students who choose this course,
this much they know: one cannot exist without the other. The most
powerful martial arts are driven by Zen-like spirituality and the most
powerful magic effected only through flawless physical execution.
Students of Shamanism must grade highly in both intelligence and agility.
Accomplished
Shamans are students who can sway the fate of entire battles with a
myriad of skills and abilities. Shamans can minor in Spears, which
gives them heightened attack power but prevents them from using spells.
To cast spells, Shamans need to minor in Wands, which allows them to
cast powerful healing and buffering spells in support of fellow
students.
It always helps to have Shamans in your class because,
as you will realize soon enough during your tenure on campus, the
balance of your existence may depend on them.
Campuses
Sacred Gate Campus
Sacred Gate Campus is the first educational
institution built by the Sacred Financial Group. On the surface, all
looks normal, but there are troubling undercurrents that lay beneath
its design. Rumor has it that supernatural experiments are being
conducted below Sacred Gate’s underground facilities. From the outside,
the school’s veneer seems to reflect the Sacred Financial Group’s
commitment to time-honored values, with its traditional, oriental
architecture, brick-lined walkways, pagodas, florid gardens and exotic
fountains.
In the middle of the school, running through its main
walkway, a long and winding stone dragon weaves below and above ground,
its head looming over Sacred Gate’s main reflecting pool. Awe inspiring
and serene, Sacred Gate Campus is the epitome of Eastern calm.
Or is it?
Mystic Peak Campus

Mystic Peak is the second campus to be created
by the Sacred Financial Group. For strategic reasons, the campus is
located on the Northern area of RAN world. Although the curriculum of
Mystic Peak is similar to that of the other schools, its dedication to
the arts is what sets Mystic Peak apart. This classical approach has
helped make Mystic Peak the most picturesque of the schools. Classrooms
are surrounded by lush, verdant greens and trees, fields of blooming
flowers and plants that add color and vibrancy to an already scenic
campus. Stained glass windows frame the campus buildings with an air of
solemn grandeur.
A grand staircase in the center of the campus
offers a tremendous view of the flora and fauna that envelops the
inside of this campus.
Phoenix Campus
[center]
Phoenix campus is the third educational
institution of the Sacred Financial Group. Its campus is located in the
Southern area of the RAN world. Together with the other two schools,
Phoenix comprises a solid defense system against, with Phoenix catering
mostly to the students of high society families. Phoenix is renowned
for its advanced engineering curriculum, offering the engineers and
scientists of tomorrow access to the most expensive and advanced
technology, free to test out their theories and experiments.
Sprawling
with large classrooms and various futuristic activity centers, Phoenix
is most proud of its ever-expanding libraries and science facilities.
To some, it is a rich and fertile breeding ground of knowledge and
learning, but to others, it is a cold, mechanical place, where the mind
is valued above everything else.
Leonair Campus
The last of the campuses founded by the Sacred
Financial Group, Leonair lays to the East, but due to a yet unexplained
accident, the campus no longer exists. It lies in ruins, a haunting
tomb that serves as a terrifying reminder of a reckoning long past.
Strange, supernatural occurrences at the campus are being reported
everyday. Some students, curious about the events surrounding the
enigmatic campus, have ventured to Leonair, never to return.
Those
that do make it back, tell shuddering tales of a giant lion statue
standing menacingly in the darkness, where trees hang withered and dead
like skeletal hands, and where the surviving plant life has mutated
into a savage species that preys on the humans foolish enough to
venture into its path. Once proud and majestic, Leonair is no more, a
black hole, where only nightmares thrive.
Why Are Passwords Required?
Passwords are required to prevent anyone else
from accessing your account. It is also necessary to secure your
e-Games account. Without passwords, anyone with a malicious intent can
access your account and do some bad things with it like taking your
identity and creating mischief online.
Why should I avoid easy to remember passwords?
We strongly suggest that you create passwords
that no one else should be able to guess. Easy to remember passwords
can easily be figured by smart hackers. If you are creating one, use a
combination of letters, numbers and characters. Use case sensitive
letters and never use a single word that is in the dictionary. For
security reasons, passwords should be minimum 6-8 characters.
How do I keep my Passwords Safe
Never give out your passwords to anyone
including representatives from Demon RAn that call you. Demon Ran
representatives will never call you or ask for your password.
Never create a list of passwords on your
desk or in file in your PC or computer. If you must create a list,
never display it openly or if you store in your PC, get a shareware
program that will store your passwords for you. These shareware
programs use encryption technology that will help protect your password
list file.
