Aurelius Academy Primer

Aurelius Academy Primer App, Version 10.3

               As you tap the start button a Video begins to play of a mid-thirties’ statuesque woman with red hair and silver streak down the left side of her bangs.  She’s dressed in a black skirt suit.  She has the air of a teacher about her.

               “Welcome to Earth Prime. I am Eyre Aurelius Headmistress of Aurelius Academy we are pleased that you are joining us.  We hope that the arrangements MANA has made for you and your family are to your liking.  We have tried to ensure that all agreements have been met in full.  If you have any complaints or notice any oversights please contact your Local Earth Gov office either in person, by phone, or submit a request via the web page.  We pride ourselves on our relocation initiatives and are eager to ensure that all your needs are met.  I have attached a presentation giving you a primer on pertinent Earth Prime history and historical events. So that you may compare it to your history and familiarize yourself with your new reality here on our home world.”

               The video switched and showed the woman again in front of Pentagram with the letters MANA across it and writing under neath.  Magic Analysis and Neutralization Association.

               “Hello, you and your family have chosen to move to Earth Prime as part of your enrollment into Aurelius Academy.  The first question we inevitably get asked is why are we Earth Prime and not your Earth, that is simple we are only one of three discovered Earths with a DIR (Dimensional Instability Rating) of 0 and we are the only DIR 0 Earth that is high magic and populated by humans.  You are being invited to Aurelius Academy because you are unique in that you come from a n-mag world, nil-magic world, and you have powers of some sort that we picked up on our scans.  We have brought you here because you are powerful enough that we consider you a risk to your world without proper training.  We will also not allow you to return to your world as you could pose a risk to governmental stability with the power you wield.”

               She paused and the slide behind her it showed a map with a circle on it she zoomed in and showed that the satellite image was showing no life whatsoever in it.

               “This is the Germany Exclusion Zone.  Our world developed magic in 1942.  We have come to describe it is the event.  It was initiated by a supernatural being rated as a P21.  That is power rating 21. The entity was engaged in a battle with two other P21 rated beings.  The initial blast of energy wiped out all life in the exclusion zone, including the microbes.  It also caused the machinery, buildings to decay at an exponential rate.”

               The slide behind her showed a blast wave of purple energy. 

The aftershock encompassed the whole globe leaving in its wake people with magical abilities and others were genetically altered and became what we have come to call n-mag class powers.  We were in the midst of a world war.  The aftershock wiped out RADAR and communications worldwide.  The armies kept fighting with the lack of communication.  Once communications were reestablished, an armistice was reached with the remnants of the German forces resulting in their surrender and an influx of German refugees into the surrounding countries.  All three P21 subjects vanished at the initiation of the Event.”

               “To combat the new powerful humans who had no control over their abilities an organization of elder vampires was formed called: M.A.N.A.  Magic Analysis and Neutralization Association. I didn’t name it, one my comic book obsessed brethren did but and it stuck. Led by me we suppressed these new magically empowered humans when they attempted to overthrow legitimate governments.  The existence of vampires came as shock to Earth’s governments but when they realized we were there to help them capture and train or eliminate these new super-powered humans they accepted our assistance and provided funding.  Our initial funding was provided by a corporation we formed centuries before to store our valuables called Aurelius Corporation.  We brought the problem to heel and started Aurelius Academy at the behest of the new world government which is based in Munich. Member countries, which now consist of every government in the world, retain their independence and their own currency while allowing us to set Super-powered human and magical creature policy globally.  The initial formation was signed with the Munich Accord, and in 1952 when Aurelius Academy was formed, we signed the Munich Alliance and Statement of Principles.  That is not to say all has been peaceful.  Japan did not surrender in world war two and the pacific war continued in earnest.  It ended with Japan’s surrender. In retaliation for a magical attack the US used three magically enhanced Nuclear Weapons on three of Japan’s cities. The arms race involved magically enhanced nuclear weapons and we had a cold war between the superpowers, United States and Soviet Union.  You likely had something similar on your world as we have seen it in the histories of many worlds we have come across.”

               “In 1964 a scientist with a specialty in transportation magic, named Dr. Dolph Kenning created the first dimensional instability.  Or portal.  We had our first boots on the ground in 1965, 4 years before we set foot on the moon. These Portals are generated by devices that are quasi-magical in nature called Kenning Devices.  We have explored six thousand, four hundred and eighty-three worlds to date.  Most have had a DI rating of eighty of higher.  This means that we predict they will collapse on themselves within minutes of being found.  Only one in one thousand worlds have had a human population.  We have only found two with a human population that had a DI rating of 0.  Earth 2. And Earth 1, or Earth Prime. It seems parallel earth closest the Earth Prime are the most stable the further we get from our dimension the more instability is present increasing exponentially as we go past a certain point.  At this point we are witnessing parallel earths come into existence and collapse in seconds.  The only other dimension with a DI rating of 0 is Earth 3, which is where Aurelius Academy resides.”

               “What is different and what is the same from your earth to this one.  I cannot tell you off hand.  We are aware of certain points we call dimensional pillars that seem to exist in all parallel Earths.  These pillars make dimensional crossing easier.  They are marked with runes that glow blue when certain individuals approach it.  Specifically, those who have a magical, or genetic attachment to subject 1 from the event. We theorize they were created by her for some purpose which we have not been able to determine yet.  Each is a locked chamber that is sealed with magic so ancient and powerful we have not been able to breech them with either divination or physical force.  All experimentation on them has been ordered ceased as we have had several diviners go blind or insane when trying.  We believe they were created on Earth Prime initially and that is why we are the most stable parallel universe and those closest to us also benefit from it.  There is one near the grounds of the school and it is a forbidden territory.  These pillars are where the guaranteed similarities end.  At some point in the past on each world some entity made a choice, and that choice changed the course of evolution.  In some cases life never formed, in some cases Dinosaurs evolved into super predators in another case nuclear war obliterated the earth in another case a new empire started in Jamaica and took over the entire world.  We have no rhyme or reason to it.  Ours became unique when the event occurred.”

               “People of our Earth are well aware of super-powered humans in their midst and treat many of them as heroes, some of these super-powered individuals even have corporate sponsorships.  Some just live their normal lives once they have their certificate and diploma from Aurelius Academy.  Some of a magical bent go on to attend post-secondary school where they refine our understanding of magic and super-powers.  We have determined one in a twenty-five thousand people will develop a magical ability or superpower.  With our current population on Earth Prime of three billion people that leaves us with a current population of supers at approximately two-hundred and forty thousand.  These individuals vary in strength from being able to change their skin color, which is PL 1, to PL 15.  PL 15 is on par with a nuclear blast. PL 20’s are very rare, we have seen one in the last eighty years.  Most are PL 1 or 2.  Rarely PL 5 or above. We assign these PL’s based on the area of impact of the power and the damage it can cause to surrounding territories.  Most of our PL 7’s and 8’s are spellcasters.  Vampires like me who are elders and pure blooded are rated at a PL 17.  We have not stopped all super-powered crime, but we have minimized it and trained local and federal authorities in all countries to deal with these problems.  Most Federal governments can afford to have a force of Aurelius trained supers to assist in enforcing their laws.”

               “What are the laws that pertain to you on Earth Prime as a super-powered individual?  Simple, you are not to use your powers to break any law within your country residence.  Any use of your power to alter time, alter reality on a large scale or in any other way alter the legitimate government control of each sovereign country is forbidden.  Any such crime has punishment ranging from imprisonment on a savage world up to death.  Any country taking part in such actions will face sanctions.  Using your powers in an act that is considered a crime in your country is punishable by imprisonment and revocation of your license to work on Earth Prime only returned once you have undergone appropriate rehabilitation. As a super-powered individual, you are registered and must declare your status when entering another country or attempting transit to another parallel earth.  You are bound by a code of conduct you swear to when you join Aurelius Academy.  If you refuse to attend Aurelius academy and you are rated as a PL higher than 4 you will not receive a license to work on Earth Prime and your ability to travel to different countries is limited to special visas.  What protections do you receive from MANA and Earth Gov?  You are a free individual and immune to conscription by your government for war.  They may conscript you in event of a natural disaster, or super-powered individual they require your assistance to stop.  They rarely do so and only under dire circumstances.  There is a minimum wage they must pay you for your services and it is quite costly.  However, if you can stop a forest fire or lava flow from destroying a town or city, they will likely pay it willingly.  I would also like to think that Aurelius Academy graduates would not need to be forced to assist in such humanitarian efforts. Beyond this you afforded all freedoms and rights of a citizen of your country.  You can hold political office, own businesses, and have the right to earn money using your abilities so long as they do not violate the laws of your country or regulations laid out by your MANA license.  If you have mental control powers and mind reading powers you have special restrictions of course. You are only allowed to use them if a warrant is issued by a recognized authority of law.  Reading someone’s mind against their will is a violation of law in all countries save eight.  Those are authoritarian regimes and as much as MANA and Earth Gov disagree with such behavior we bow to their sovereignty.”

               “These laws are enforced by MANA which has a global police force of Super powered beings of many PL’s and skill sets. We ensure warfare is conducted through conventional means without nuclear weapons and super beings. Otherwise, we stay out of wars between countries though the World Government may at their discretion impose sanctions.  We are not their enforcement arm, we are an arm’s length entity that they provide funding too.  MANA’s other area of responsibility is dimensional invasion.  There are other realms outside of the parallel earths that have from time to time tried to invade our world.  MANA with the assistance of local military support has stopped each one.  The main non-aggressor worlds we have access to are the Deadlands, and the Spirit lands. We are aware of others we are unable to enter or interact with directly while different religions have different names, they are designated Hell, Heaven and Limbo by MANA.  The realms we have had attacks from are what we classify as nightmare realms.  They have been quiet of late.”

               “Finally, on to Aurelius Academy itself.  Aurelius Academy was founded in 1952.  It was created as a place where super-powered individuals could go and learn to control their abilities in a stable environment away from innocents.  It started with three teachers.  Myself, Neffi and my sister Helen.  It has since blossomed to house sixty buildings and host a staff of over two hundred with specialties in all forms of Magic and Superpowers.  The original campus was on the edge of the exclusion zone within the ten-kilometer buffer.  As it grew and we found other dimensions we realized we would need a sizable campus to ensure we had enough facilities to train individuals and ensure the safety of surrounding communities.  Earth 3 was the third parallel earth we chose.  It is devoid of human life.  It once housed humans however they were wiped out about four thousand years before our time.  We can correlate it with an event on Earth Prime the vampires call the Pogrom.  The planet is infused with far more magic than we have on Earth Prime.  Crackling lines of power crisscross its surface.  We assume instead of wiping out most vampires the event wiped out all sentient life.  The world is cast in an almost permanent twilight due to a barrier blocking out the sun.  Plant and animal life has adapted to sustain itself in this environment.  The plants while somewhat familiar now feed on magical energy to sustain themselves along with what meager light the twilight provides.  The animals have grown feral and mutated from the overabundance of magic.  In its lush looking forests, you will find things we compare to their mythical counterparts here, Dragons, Unicorns, Fairies, dire wolves, dire cats.  All are dangerous and vicious and drawn to living sentients like moths to flames.  In other words, do not leave the protective wards of the school the planet is not safe.  One last danger we have discovered are the remnant.  These are feral proto humans that were likely once human and have bred since the fall of the planet.  They are not what we would consider human-like intelligence by they are vicious and cunning.  They hunt in packs.  You can see them in the darkness of the planet due to the blue veins of energy that line their blackened skin.  We have cleared the immediate surroundings of the school of them but if you leave the protection of the wards, they are out there somewhere we cannot possibly kill them all they are populous.  They seem to understand we dislike their presence and avoid us actively.  We have had students that have ignored the rules be attacked by them, those that survived were infected with a disease that slowly turned them into these things.  We have a cure, but it is difficult to create and is not guaranteed these things are the only known way we have found for a super-human to lose their abilities.”

               “Now that I have put the proper fear of Earth 3 into you, let’s talk about the good parts of the Academy.  We have managed to create a hole in the barrier allowing sunlight and moonlight in you will experience a normal weather cycle for our location which is approximately Bremen Germany, when it existed. We picked it because there is a dimensional pillar nearby to make transit easy.  We have a just installed a fusion reactor, so we have a limitless supply of clean electricity.  Due to trans-dimensional fiber optic connection developed by Kenning industries we have full internet access and cell phone service within the compound. You are encouraged to keep in touch with your family and friends while you are attending.  We have state of the art classrooms equipped with computers and the latest in magical research texts.  Your dorm rooms are spacious, you will be placed with four of your classmates each have your own private room along with a common area and further common areas within the dorm buildings.  We have world class chefs that rotate through preparing our meals.  Most of our instructors are fully certified instructor with MANA and have worked in either analysis or enforcement branches.  Those that have not were brought on because of their expertise in fields that are unrelated to MANA activities.  We have a rigorous physical training regimen and a very healthy diet provided to you.  Our campus is approximately 100 hectares in total which makes its total size about that of Disney World.  We have a full outdoor football pitch and track.  An indoor football pitch and track.  An Olympic sized swimming pool.  A host of greenery and imported wildlife as well as some local wildlife that is harmless.  The weather is on the temperate side.  Due to our barriers and wards, we avoid the strange magical weathers experienced outside of the campus.  As you can imagine such a large campus makes transportation key.  Walking paths are available, as are golf carts, finally there is subway of sorts that can get you from one side to the other in about six minutes. We have a thirty-bed hospital on campus it is state of the art in both magical and scientific based healing it also houses a pharmacy and a dentist office.  We use it as a learning hospital for those students who are magical healers or have powers that lend themselves to caring for sick and injured.  We have attracted some of the best magical healing specialists to train our students.  We sometimes host difficult cases from the home world, or ones too dangerous to be allowed to stay in a conventional hospital.  If a super is injured on earth prime, they will likely find their way to our doorstep for healing.  You are encouraged to explore within the bounds of the barriers.  We have three separate libraries one deals with what is considered normal human studies, a second is a magical library and the final is a library dedicated to super abilities and their applications and history.  Between the three we house the collective human knowledge of several parallel earths. Both in book and electronic format.”

               The app paused and flashed a prompt on the screen.  Asking if there were any topics the user would like more information on.  After selecting the Power Level Ranks and Descriptions the presenter appeared on screen again, this time in a dark blue skirt-suit.

“You can review the list behind me it is available in the learning materials provided to you on this tablet.  As you can see some entities can be rated with more the one rating the highest almost always applies when assessing threat levels, but the others are often included to ensure MANA agents are aware of all threats faced from a particular target.  These multiple ratings are always due to a special rating class.  For example, time travelers are considered a high threat rating as they can alter timelines and create or destroy parallel earths wiping out all life on those worlds or creating a whole new world that we may have to deal with.  Most of these entities also possess other powers that may pose a threat. Which is why we have the Power Level rating for example Enid Aurelius, my birth mother and vampire who turned me if she were alive and was on the grid as a threat would pop up as a PL:20T-19M-19.  This instantly tells an agent that the individual is a time traveler that can do so at will and is also capable of decimating an entire continent with their additional powers, and in this case that she is the most powerful magical user ever encountered we have never seen another PL 19M rated mage.  Please note that PL:21 will only ever appear as PL:21.  Their ability to alter reality and rewrite history at a whim trumps everything else.  We have never seen a PL:21 that was born human. All were created at the dawn of time.  We currently are not capable of combating one should they appear again.”

PL – 14 – This rating typically covers Mages of moderate power.  They have their own scale.  Super humans of this level typically could destroy a city block if given enough time.

PL – 13 – Super Humans of this level are considered high enough power to be threat to life in their vicinity but are not considered a serious threat to safety of a town.

PL – 12 – This is the upper reaches most super humans can reach.  They can typically control an element or plant life or animals, sometimes they have an elemental body that is extremely dangerous to those in the vicinity, such as super-hot flames.  They are the 99th percentile

PL – 11 These would be considered supers of exceptional power at the school Mages with this level of power are capable of most common magic with ease and find it challenging to do more complicated magic that draw on more power. They are in the 97th Percentile

PL – 10 - These are considered of sizable power.  They are near the upper end of what we see at Aurelius Academy they can look forward to high-ranking career in a field of their choice.  They are the 95th percentile

PL- 9 – These are considered the higher end of our student base, They would be in the 93rd  percentile of the super powered individual scale.  They can look forward to exemplary careers in a field of their choice

PL – 8 – These are individuals in the 90th percentile.  They are more specialized than more supers with a higher power rating.  They will be trained to experts in their field such as healing, natural disaster containment, animal handling.

PL – 7 – These individuals in the 85th percentile.  They are highly specialized and are very good at one thing.  They can look forward to being experts in their field of power and study.

PL – 6 – Weaker in power but more of a generalist, supers/mages of this classification can do very well with minor and low-medium magical tasks/super powered tasks.  They are usually well rounded and can expect a very good wage in their field of study.  They are not considered a high risk or high priority target (77th Percentile)

PL – 5 – This is your average super.  They encompass most of our student body.  They can expect a good wage as well, these individuals while dangerous to a normal human one on one are not inherently capable of a massive amount of disturbance without use of conventional means.  Someone who can turn invisible to the entire spectrum would be this level. Someone who can lift a car.  Stop bullets with their skin.  They are the 75th percentile.

PL – 4-  These are getting to be minor powers, still rarer then the PL-1s but not considered more of a threat then a human with a gun in most instances. (70th percentile)

PL – 3 – Hedge mages is the best term to describe these folks, capable of minor magics that would be a hit at a magic show or kids birthday party, but with little practical use in most cases.  Some of these can make a decent wage using their power for a very specific ask but specialist training is not recommended.  They are of course welcome at Aurelius Academy at their guardian’s expense.

PL – 2 – Extremely weak abilities.  Of little to no value to anyone even the person possessing them.  They are able to attend Aurelius Academy as it is open to all super powered individuals but more localized and schooling is recommended at a MANA approved school.

PL – 1 – Abilities so minor they are negligible.  These supers are supers in name only.  A Mage of this power level could light a candle with their finger.  Make a minor sound.  A super may be able to grow their hair or nails.  Change their skin color.  Beyond some very specific situations they are likely just doing normal human jobs. They do not require registration, nor do they require specific schooling outside normal public schools. They are of course welcome at Aurelius academy our charter declares we must accept all super powered or magical individuals. They either need to have their guardians pay their way, or their countries government.  Sometimes they receive scholarships based on other talents such as scholastic ability.

               You tap on the Subject 1 link.  The narrator appeared in another video with a backdrop of several sketches and paintings of an angelic being dating from the 12th century to a black and white photo of dubious quality from 1918 and another from 1942.  It was tall and angelic, and she could tell it had a similar color hair to her the paintings showed her wings as black and another showed them as silver.  She started speaking.

               “The supernatural entity designated Subject 1 has appeared throughout Earth Prime’s history at certain nexuses of Demonic Events.  In most cases there is a Dimensional Pillar located near the sightings.  We are unsure of what her goals were or what her motivations were.  She was allied with Hazel Aurelius, Sarah (O’connor?) a Demon Slayer and Helen Aurelius.  Helen’s observations are recorded elsewhere as we have no corroboration for her version of events.  As an official MANA file this will be constrained to facts verifiable by historic record and corroborated by multiple sources.  We have confirmed she called herself Seraph, Archangel of the Universe, First of God’s Children.  Her witnessed powers were super strength.  Flight.  The ability to phase through solid matter.  Use all manner of magic.  One recorded instance of her using a divination spell to physically reach through and touch a demon so she could track him.  She was also witnessed to cause the entire battle of the Somme to cease while she battled a demon in no man’s land with her allies.  Based the 1942 Event and the creation of the Germany Exclusion zone and subsequent scans of the area and Earth Prime we have determined she was a PL:21 capable of altering Reality on a pan-dimensional scale and can impact universal constants.  Our divinations and research also indicate it was she who sealed off the pathways to Limbo, Heaven and Hell.  This act shattered reality into Parallel earths. We also believe based on divination and research that she knew this would occur when she attempted to fix the boundaries and built the dimensional pillars to stop reality from being destroyed.  She is presumed destroyed in the culmination of the 1942 Event.  It is theorized she gave up her existence to stabilize creation.  There is an alternate theory that her mind fractured and she was lost in time and space and an energy being with no physical form.  This is based firsthand reports corroborated by Helen Aurelius in 12th century England when God appeared to her and she took her true form for the first time.  She was reported to have said: I can feel all things in all times in all corners of the universe.  I cannot contain this, and her form started to destabilize.  It is theorized she was describing touching all of time and space at one moment.  If this alternate theory is correct, then she could be out there in one of the parallel earths lost and alone unaware of her true potential and the people around her unaware of the danger she presents.  For further information review File – Subject 1 – 1942 Event – Suspected AKA Archangel Seraph.”

               Still curious about the biggest of the biggest bads you tap Subject 2 – 1942 Event.  The woman appeared again with pictures and symbols.  One photograph of a blonde man who was quite handsome.

               “Subject 2 – AKA the Black Sun.  AKA Lucius Aurelius. AKA Chronos.  Deceased two times.  The Black Sun was created first.  He was a being of Chaos.  He opposed bringing order to creation and corrupted it every chance he got.  His crimes are too numerous to list. He was a PL:21.  He was responsible for the creation of the Deadlands.  We have two opposing records of his demise due to a Parallel universe merge event that occurred four years ago.  During which several individuals who were widely thought to be unique on all earths had a series of memories overlap their own.  It was traumatic for most who were mortal and in some cases their brains were unable to handle the additional information and they either went insane or had a stroke.  Those who were less susceptible to such damage were able to corroborate some facts.  That Sarah the Demonslayer existed in that universe and was actively fighting Super-powered humans and that my mother, her sister and I we were able to create a new universe distinct from our own.  My mother, in that parallel earth sacrificed herself to destroy the Black Son in a collapsing universe she caused to implode.  Based on those events it is theorized that caused the events that precipitated the 1942 Event here.  Where the Black Sun was again slain, this time by Subject 1 – Archangel Seraph.  It is expected that the Archangel Seraph did not intend to battle him but when the conflict was forced, she found it necessary to end him.  We believe that the parallel incursion we suffered was a result of our altered timeline running into theirs. If this is the case then by killing him both after he had been slain as the pocket universe could only exist at the beginning of creation, and before the actual prime timeline destroyed of him, she caused paradox. We believe he was not her intended target and that Lucifer was.  It is also suspected that the alternate version of myself and my mother caused the demonic infestations by creating the pocket universe then shattering it.  These are only theories because that parallel universe snapped all ties with the remaining ones and either no longer exists or is no longer accessible.  Subject 2 is considered fully deceased with no chance of return.  His time loop was closed, and the paradox will have obliterated him.”
