Every child grows up reading tales of monsters and magic, but no one tells these kids how the world is kept safe from these things today. During the ancient times most humans lived in harmony with monsters, or rarely came into contact with them at all. As humanity progressed they came into more and more conflict with monsters. The Roman Empire actively killed many monsters to further their own conquests. When the weak tribes of Europa began to fight the long standing Roman Empire none suspected that the spirits would help the tribes against the Romans. After the fall of Rome monsters once again claimed dominance of Europa, tearing the medieval kingdoms apart and nearly killing all humans in the incident we now call the "Black Plague". Humanity recovered, and some sought revenge.
After hundreds of years monsters have been all but eradicated, with only small pockets of them fleeing their homes or blending in with humans. As the monsters dissipated the knowledge of how to deal with them was also lost. The Vatican, worried about the loss of knowledge, set up academies to deal with the worsening problem. Camilla Academy officially formed in 1836, but other schools had been around for much longer. Camilla Academy was set on the Italian island of Sicily. It fell into disrepair and was shut down in 1914 as the Great War started. It was thought to have been closed forever, until in 2015 when a resurgence of energy older than any creature, started to fill the world again. Murders and attacks began to spring up worldwide, and thousands of monsters started to appear from the woodwork; as if out of thin air. Families who had once known of monsters and fought them hundreds of years ago were sent letters of acceptance to the next generation of hunters.
In 2015 the Vatican sank millions of euros into modernizing the old building. The building, although now with plumbing and crude power/lighting, is far from cutting edge. Camilla is no paradise on Earth, and is more like a labyrinth of dark winding corridors. Teachers were rushed in from around the world, and many aren't that great. The school offers regular courses in math, science, history, etc. but also has a few more classes to teach hunting skills, fighting techniques, and (for those who possess the gift) magic studies. Due to the diversity of students attending Camilla the Pope himself has said that no one religion will be followed or practiced here. Camilla Academy sits hidden in north-eastern Sicily in a very mountainous area. It is close to the sea and a small town nearby. For the purposes of this RP we will just call it Rosa town.
There are three main types of Hunters that the records have provided us with. Many others may have existed, but these three broad types cover the majority of hunting skills. The three classes are Slayer, Exorcist, Priest.
Most weapons are accepted here, but try to keep it realistic. This place isn't going to have a browning 50 cal that student's can carry around. Crossbows, Rifles, and Handguns are generally the only ranged weapons you will have to use. Bullets, arrows, and swords are specially made to combat monsters. Steel with flecks of silver and dipped in holy water are generally used in all cases. More specific ammunition or weapons have been designed to combat other creatures. (Ex: Rock salt rounds)
