[X]Plan: Thorough Education
-[X]Deputy Headmaster (Your Assistant and runner of the Day to Day operations)
--[X]Nero Schwarze: The Second in Command of the Stormcrows before Hoster slew Galdron, and the self-imposed exiled son of Emperor Fredrick, he left to make his own mark on the world, and to escape his own reputation as a magician that practices da- Elder magic. He is skilled at command and at making sure day to day operations run smoothly, but he is also a decent teacher and does not mind getting passed over for the position to teach. (Culture: Schwarzen, Class: Dark Mage/Knight)
-[X]Combat Instructor (Obviously students need to learn how to fight.)
--[X]Jasper the Winged Knight/ The Kingslayer: Knight of Midna. He is a knight of a reputable sort, noble, courageous, and overprotective of his charges. He tried to teach heroes at the royal court but was exiled when his king tried to rape one of his charges, and he killed him, which caused him to flee. He received his name for riding a pegasus into battle. (Culture Rusanic, Class: Knight/Pegusus Knight)
-[X]Weapons Master (Someone needs to introduce foreign weapons and how to fight against them)
--[X]Barry the Demon of Dolvvale: The Greatest Soldier in alive, he has trained for over 50 years to reach perfection with every weapon imaginable. While he is old and is ill, he is still a fine teacher, with his heroing days not long behind him. (Culture Schwarzen, Class: Blademaster)
-[X]Magical Instructor (Students should know the basics before branching out.)
--[X]Zelda Greyback: A skilled mage and political schemer. She was run out of court due to botching a spell that wound up summoning a demon, though she managed to kill it, her patron was not pleased with her. She was then framed for murder after she tried to protect her liege lord. Although she was cleared of the crime, she was exiled. She still tried her best to help people, wherever she can. (Culture: Romain, Class: Mage)
-[X]Beast Master/ Beast Expert/Slayer (Monsters still roam the wilds)
--[X]Geralt of Merigold: The Butcher of Balamast, and one of your first children you gave life to. He is a skilled monster hunter, tracker and hero. He is also a skilled alchemist who knows how to brew potions that can heal almost any ailment… for humans at least. (Culture: Tallian. Class: Slayer)
-[X]Representative To the Kingdom (you need to make sure your interests are protected and Empress Elizabeth doesn't decide to drag you into the civil war.)
--[X]Talion Tall Talker: A former politician from Sano, He's a wandering politician with a price on his head who offered his services to you. He used to be a big deal, something about almost forming a Tallian confederation, and warning about threats from the south. He was then laughed all the way to exile. (Culture: Tallian, Class: Politician.)
-[X]Political Teacher (Not getting killed because you bowed wrong is definitely something the students should learn)
--[X]Rekunthung Speaker of Humans: A Goblin Diplomat and Hunter from one of their hidden cities. He has offered you his services in exchange for protecting him from his enemies and from one of the pretenders of the civil war. (Culture: Goblin. Class Politician.)
-[X]The School Spymaster (Because you know from experience that someone is going to want someone else dead)
--[X]Asuna the Blue Dragon: A former ninja of the Wei clan, she left her clan after a failed assassination, and she would rather live than have to commit suicide. While she is trained as a ninja, she is no slouch at combat, and enjoys a good spar… That and long walks through the woods. (Culture Hantzu, Class Ninja)
-[X]Supply Master (FOOOOD!)
--[X]Marcus Maximilious: A Southerner who found himself on the wrong end of a slave raid, he was sold to the Elkhort's prince. A few days later, the prince was impressed with his skill, and Marcus was set free. Seeing nothing better to do with his life, he offered his services to teach the more... Subtle intrigues of court, and to make sure the kids keep their heads on their shoulders when meeting with foreign dignitaries. That he's a mage is just an added bonus. (Culture Romain, Class: Mage.)
-[X] Aspida Academy

Okay, let me just summarize my plan.
-Deputy Headmaster: Nero, because he's noted as being capable at running day to day operation.
-Combat Instructor: the Pegasus Knight because he's already got experience in training others.
-Weapons Master: Barry, the perfect weapons master, and I included the position to make sure our students don't get killed when someone pulls out a trident/other exotic weapon.
-Mage Instructor: Zelda because she seems like the standard court mage
-Beast Master: It was between Geralt and Red Strider for me, but I chose Geralt because of his unique class and connection to us.
-Representative To the Kingdom: Pretty much necessary for our start, so I picked the already experienced diplomat
-Political Teacher: Useful subject, and the teacher lets our students have experience with nonhumans, increasing tolerance.
-School Spymaster: Picked, because of course were going to have people trying to interfere,were the first Hero School, after all, and I picked the Ninja because, although the Spy may be somewhat more effective in this position, it's not worth picking the guy whose noted to be untrustworthy in his description.
-Supply Master: Picked the guy who would probably be the least offended, and who probably has experience with this sort of stuff as a Romainan (Stewardship culture).
Also, since were a Lifebringer and White Mage, we can hold off on hiring a Medic while our school is still small and we need the money, and we can hold off on picking a few other positions for now.
EDIT: There we go, finished the plan.
Aspida means shield in greek, and we want our students to be shields against injustice and evilness everywhere.
The image I picked because it gives us a good, open area, that's not cut off from the rest of society while still being very defensible.
