Martilia is a prestigious international high school, located in a small town in the Swiss alps. Though it calls itself a high school, it covers college material as well. Nobody is quite sure when it was established, but all of a sudden its alumni were pouring into the job market, all of whom managed to get high-level high-paying jobs.
Qualified applicants are often turned away from the school, the demand for spaces is so great. But for every dozen turned away, one makes it onto the waiting list. For every dozen of those, a student is actually accepted.
But, one of the more curious aspects of the school is that it frequently accepts non-applicants. It researches students who would never dream of getting in if they applied, and requests that they come in for an interview. These students are always accepted.
That's not all of the oddities surrounding the school. Each graduating class is a tightly knit group, never quite breaking ties with their school days. If an alumnus marries somebody outside of the school, their spouse is reviewed by their team captain.
Many of the graduates have no record of existing prior to their attending the academy. What the public doesn't realize, is that Martilia is more than just a school. It is a way-station, where nonhumans may be integrated into human society. Sirens, vampires, and other such beings are brought into the school at a [relatively] young age. They assimilate with the human students, who have been hand-picked to mesh well with them. They learn to pass as human, free of persecution and fear.
Welcome to Martilia High. Good luck, you'll need it.
