Jade Mountain Academy (✨)

EXTREMELY WIP
If you want to add an OC to Jade Mountain Academy (Luniverse), message me on my message wall!!
Jade Mountain Academy is an intertribal and intercontinental school located within Jade Mountain and was founded by the Dragonets of Destiny. While the school opened in 5,012 AS, it was closed in the 5,970s due to an assassination on Jade Mountain grounds, before being renovated into a palace and being reinstated as an academy in 6,500. It has nine wings (previously known as winglets), and it's a five-year school that allows students to drop out, apply or transfer at any time. Five of the nine wings are their own classes with their own graduation times, and all of them have exactly eleven dragons in them, one member of each tribe and a hybrid. Groups of two or three will share caves, although exceptions can be made for certain dragons such as Peril for her firescales. Jade Mountain's official colors are jade green and silver, and its rival academy is Beetle Lake Academy located on Pantala. Moraine of the IceWings is their current headmistress.
== Description==
Jade Mountain Academy is built into Jade Mountain, the tallest mountain in the Claws of the Clouds mountains, located in the far east of the Night Queendom. Since Jade Mountain was once renovated to become a palace, the academy looks nothing like what it once did when it first opened. While most of the academy is still located inside the mountain, the rooms and hallways look pristine, decorated, and very un-cave like, despite cavern-ish features being built into the school before it reopened. The palace parts itself includes towers, balconies, pavilions and some hallways poking out of one of the sides on Jade Mountain. 
The academy doesn't go that far deep into the mountain, mostly being on one side with some hallways and classes extending to form a half-ring around the mountain. The structure of most parts of the academy remains the same when compared to the original Jade Mountain Academy. The main entrance to the academy is on a large pavilion on a mountaintop, with doors leading to the Great Hall, with many different trees and miniature glass globes hanging from the branches. The academy halls have pillars that resemble stalagmites, arches, and glass globes hanging from the ceiling with various leaf and branch patterns with bright light shining through them. Some hallways, especially if they're taller, have potted plants and flowers hanging from the ceiling as well. The floors are polished as well. 
Jade Mountain Academy also has electricity and running water, making the lights seem very artificial and unlike the canopy sunlight the academy once had. 
==Notable Features==
===Primary Rooms===
<tabber>
|-|Great Hall=
The Great Hall is the main entrance into Jade Mountain Academy. Because of its size, it is dimly lit compared to the rest of the academy. It has both natural and artificial lighting. It can fit around six hundred dragons in it, and still have enough room to fly. The great hall is symmetrical, with pillars, and it has a vault roof with skylights and glass orbs. The great hall has large, potted plants, and potted plants hanging from the ceiling as well. There is a giant map of the school to the side, and there are silk banners representing the other schools to the sides as well, with Jade Mountain's banner at the back of the hall near the wooden stage. On the wooden stage, is a giant, bronze gong that looks very aged, which was the original salvaged from pre-palace Jade Mountain, with barely visible carvings of dragons. Dragon carvings are also present in the floor, which is pristinely waxed over and polished, and typically, on the first few days of school, there will be a banner woven out of leaves and flowers that says "Welcome, students!". 
|-|Prey Center=
The Prey Center is a giant room to the side of the academy with many doors, ledges and pavilions for dragons to enter and leave, especially when going to hunt prey from the outside. It overlooks a grassy and mossy slope, where animals such as sheep and goats graze. There is also a pool and a waterfall in the room, for dragons to catch fish and other live seafood. Smaller prey, such as chickens and rodents, will be let loose in the spacious area for students to hunt. There are tables and giant smooth stones to the corners of the room for students to enjoy their meals. In the center of the room, there is a fire that dragons can roast their food over.
Outside, there are trees, vines and bushes that grow fruits. Students are allowed to come and pick these fruits as they please. There are orange, apple, lemon, cherry and banana trees, vines that grow grapes, strawberries, watermelons and blackberries, as well as bushes that grow blueberries and raspberries.
|-|Medical Bay=
The medical bay is a very quiet, dimly lit room with flamesilk for lighting. The beds are comfortable, and tucked away in large cubbies, with curtains. There is a desk near the back of the room, where dragons can check in and out, and a curtain behind the desk that leads to a vast storage with medicine. There is also a door leading to the healing caves. The medical bay also looks very grand, as if it were a healing center in a royal palace, although it has since been remade and made to be more comfortable, small, and quiet.
|-|Mourning Caves=
The mourning caves are two caves located at the top of the mountain with windows and a skylight, and the caves are nearly soundproof. The stone is dark in color, and during mourning, the entrances will be marked with a boulder.
|-|Dorms=
The dorms are grand, palace-grad rooms that are like huts that stretch around parts of the mountain. Almost every room has a window, and every room has at least two bedrooms, a kitchen, a living room, and a mini walk-in closet. Each room also has a carpet, and is well furnished, with fur blankets and bookshelves with scrolls and books for entertainment. The dorms themselves look clean, with pale, polished stone walls, and a tall, vault roof with hanging glass globes, as well as dark wood supports, furniture and some of the floors are also a dark wood. The rooms often smell of cavern and trees at the same time, unless a dragon has scented candles, which are a common accessory.
There are also multiple dorms, allowing students to easily request their own room since there are many rooms to go around. Because of the way that Jade Mountain Palace was designed, there are no designated dorms for teachers and staff.
|-|Offices=
The offices are a series of rooms at the front of the school where staff (and sometimes teachers) stay at. Being a newer addition to the academy, the hallway leading to the offices and the offices themselves appear more case-like, with stalagmite pillars and a more "natural" looking arch. The hallways and the offices contain the glass globe lights that the rest of the academy does. The offices themselves have two rooms, the main room, and another, much smaller room where there are beds for some of the staff to sleep since there are no designated dorms for them. All offices have windows and are labelled with a plaque attached to the stone door, which have windows. There are carpets, wooden desks, and sometimes tapestries in all of the offices. All of the offices except Moraine's are the same size. 
|-|Underground Lakes=
The Underground Lakes are located on the other side of the mountain and are secluded from the rest of the school. There are hallways, and eventually tunnels, that lead to the udnerground lake, although they aren't so obvious to spot. It is a giant cavern, with spikes and stalagmites everywhere, as well as stone spires. There are holes in the cavern that open to the sky, the largest of which can show all three moons. The sky holes are big enough for dragons to fly through. The ground is slippery, and there is a bluish moss, and the moons cast a silvery-green light throughout the caverns.
|-|Armory=
The armory is located in the center of the school, behind heavily locked doors. The armory is a large, circular room, with a stream of water forming a crescent shape. The room is illuminated by flamesilk if it isn't dark, and there are all sorts of spears, shields, swords, bows and armor that appear as if they haven't been touched for centuries. There are also locked wooden boxes containing smaller weapons. The armory is unmaintained, and the floors have not been polished, and it is so secluded that there is hardly any dust.

===Classes===
<tabber>
|-|Art Caves=
The art caves are a series of classrooms located near the front of the academy. Even though there are multiple, there is one main art cave that consists of all sorts of art forms for students to learn about. In the art caves, students learn about pottery, painting, glassblowing, weaving, carving and drawing. There are no designated caves for a specific type of art form. The art caves are brightly lit, with both natural and artificial light, and they each have multiple windows, some of which were stained or have mosaic designs by students. There are wooden shelves everywhere in the rooms, filled with all sorts of art supplies, and there is another, smaller room attached to the main room which has a kiln. There is also a large, copper wire statue hangs from the ceiling, depicting a two-winged dragon which has glittering gemstones and colorful silk attached to it, with multiple glass globe lights hanging from it. Each art room also has clay pots with beads, paints, pastels, crayons, and all sorts of art supplies in them.
|-|Music Caves=
Similarly to the art caves, the music caves are a handful of caves with smooth, rounded walls, designed to have sound echo and bounce off of them, with multiple instruments in each of them, such as harps, pianos, violins, bongos, djembes, maracas and flutes. There are also fancy, choral risers in each room, and bookshelves with scrolls and books with sheet music and instructions on how to play some of the instruments included. There are tapestries in the main music cave that depict music notes, a LeafWing playing a drum, and IceWings and MudWings singing together.
|-|History Caves=
The history caves are large caves that each are the same size. They have windows, and have wooden desks and ottomans, with a chalkboard at the front and multiple bookshelves in each room. Each history cave also has multiple tapestries, depicting events from history on both Pyrrhia and Pantala, including Darkstalker's rise, the SandWing war, Darkstalker's return, the Tree Wars, and formation of the LeafSilk Commonwealth. Each wooden desk has room for books and scrolls and has dragons flying around peacefully carved into them. The history caves also include lanterns and mostly natural lighting to give the caves a more authentic, historical feel. The classrooms also have stalagmites as support pillars and the class itself is carved and designed to resemble actual caves as well.
|-|Defense Cave=
The defense cave is a large cave that sits near Jade Mountain's gym. It is cold, with multiple streams of running water that make parts of the cave appear as islands, especially when it rains. The entrance to the cave is large, and the floor, although polished and smooth, is very dusty and has claw and talonprints everywhere. There are wooden and stuffed burlap sack mannequins near the edges of the rooms for dragons to practice tackling or attacking, and there is a painted model of a SkyWing showing where the vital organs and arteries are in a dragon's body. There are large windows and skylights, that are resistant to a dragon being thrown into them. Despite this, most of the techniques taught in the cave involve teamwork, self-defense and how to fight without severely injuring a dragon. The streams of water also lead to a pool, which dragons can clean any wounds off at, and there are cubbies in the back of the cave where dragons can put their stuff.
|-|Language Caves=
The language caves are a set of small caves that are further away than the other classes, and are actually carved into the mountain, since they are a new addition.
