- Dialogue for WoR project Nordstjernen Academy is a Private Huntsman Academy that hosts only descendents of Fallende Ancestry. The Academy is based on the Island of Vytal, and is run by Headmistress Cassiopeia Angus Fallende. The Academy makes it's first Appearance in the Bright as Fallen Stars Fanfiction, when they call upon their rights to participate in the Vytal Festival, pitting themselves against Stjerne Fallende of Beacon Academy and Logan Clementis of Atlas Academy, as they are rumored to be the ones who have inherited the powers The Academy is Minor, compared to the four major huntsmen academies, but they are still a well-known school and manage to maintain a prestigious reputation.

History
When the four huntsman academies were established after the great war, the Fallendes and the Orions both started their own private academies to teach their descendents the purpose for their exsistance on Remnant and to prepare them to fulfill their destinies. The Fallendes started their Academy on the northern part of the Island of Vytal and the Orions on the southern part. The two schools remain on amicable terms with each other, but due to their differences, they mostly keep to themselves but are not afraid to unite when the future of Remnant is at stake.

Students
Like the four huntsmen academies, Nordstjernen Academy is a residential academy, meaning most students board there. The academy provides necessary facilities, such as food, hygiene and laundry washing. The students are not restricted to campus outside of lessons and are allowed to visit the main capital of Vytal, though 1st-4th years are required to be accompanied by an older student age 16 and up.

In order to be accepted, The students must be of Fallende Linage and have enough aura training to help them with the pre-combat training already taught at the Academy. They also must have a significant knowledge of how to speak and write Silvnya, the common language of the Fallende Warriors. Most of the students normally come from Nomadic tribes that travel around Remnant, but some come from any of the four kingdoms.

Students attend school for a total of 8 years, as Nordstjernen Academy admits students at the age of 12 years and up. The first four years count as Pre-combat training, and the next four count as Huntsman training. The 1st-4th year students are often refered to as Juniors and the 5th-8th years as Seniors

As the Island of Vytal doesn't normally host the Vytal Festival Tournament, they don't normally participate, but are allowed to initiate the Titan Leagues rights, in they feel they are up for participating. 5th-8th years are allowed to participate in the tournament, so long as they meet the requirements of adequate grades and combat performance.

Dress code
For Boys, they are required to wear a black shirt, a silver tie and a darker silver vest. They wear a pair of dark green slacks, black socks and a pair of brown dress boots. For girls, they wear a black shirt, a silver tie and a light grey vest. They also wear a blue/silver plaid green skirt and grayish-blue legging tights, along with brown dress boots. The students are allowed to wear jewelery with their uniforms, but are strictly forbidden to damage their uniforms in any way, as the consequences are them paying for a new uniform.

For Combat Training, Students must wear combat uniforms provided for them by the Academy. They are allowed to wear their own custom outfits in their leisure time.

Curriculum
Like the 4 huntsman academies, students are placed into teams of four for the next 8 years. Instead of going through Initiation to determine teams, they are determined through matchups. The Process goes as follows: two Students will be paired with each other to face off against another pair of students. This process is repeated several times until they finally determine who would make a good match with each other. they then join two pairs up to form a team.

After teams are formed, they start to attend classes and practical exercises. The 1-4th year students are given more Combat training, while the 5-8th year students are given more intellectual courses, such as History and Geography.

All classes are taught practical exercises and various off-campus activities. 5-8th year students go on Missions as part of their time at Nordstjernen Academy. 1st-4th years are not allowed to go on training missions, as they are still in training and are unprepared.
