Shinsui Academy (School)

Shinsui Academy was founded with one simple thought: How can we use technology to give students the best education in the field of Hero work possible. So after several years of digging up funds and coming up with a solid plan they started to work on a little island just off the coast of southern Hokkaido. Slowly turning it into a massive training facility complete with almost any kind of set up a young hero would need to train. From wild overgrown forests to fake abandoned factory districts the island has multiple modular training grounds that can be remade and adjusted to suit the needs of any lesson.

Main Campus
Main Campus is at the northern most tip of the island overlooking Kuato City’s bay from above a rocky cliff that drops straight down into the crashing surf below. Several buildings dot the area surrounding a large open terrace and paved walkways with a fountain at its center. The northernmost building is Shinsui Tower. Those at the southern end include the student housing, school market, and monorail station. Staff housing is the furthest east just above the monorail station. All the while the general physical education fields and basic hero training grounds dominate the west. Tech & Support Studies is just before the training grounds. All the while the Arts and Music Building are near the center of campus.

The Outer Campus
The Outer Campus is mainly made up of a large overgrown forest that has grown from the rich volcanic soil of the island. While much of the island is left to the wild there are several large training facilities, each pertaining to a special kind of training. From urban combat to enviromental disasters, each training area is modifiable and made to handle a variety of situations. The island itself has a single mountain peak that dominates it rough center. Overgrown mostly by forest the peak is flat plateau of column like basalt. A tradition has been started by Hero Course teacher Sten Aarden for students to climb that peak and leave their name scrawled in the basalt columns. In addition there is a rumor that speaks of a hidden hotspring somewhere on the island in the outer campus, but where this is located is unknown.

Whalebone Island
While it isn't accessible by the normal means available to students. There is a smaller island just off the coast of the main isle once used for a whaling camp. The old warehouses and rigs to strip-down whale carcasses are still there today, albeit old and nearly falling apart. In addition shipping containers filled with building materials and construction equipment still sit here. Perhaps there were plans to turn the island into another facility for the school, but regardless it sits empty and unused. Though rumors persist that the island is haunted.

Island Security
The entire island is surrounded by a monorail system that doubles as a perimeter fence. Any intruders who pass through the perimeter or attack it are immediately assailed by the fence's defensive measures. Often a group of robots armed with a cementine cannons first before members of staff are alerted.

Anyone who is not a student or staff member must obtain permission from the staff to enter campus. A simple form can be filled out, and a temporary pass can be issued, after said person passes a background check.
