Frat Wars (Story Arc)

The Frat Wars was an abandoned Story Arc in The Academy of Almost Gods. Had it taken place, it would have been one of the first story arcs in the story.

Concept
Fraternities/Sororities were briefly mentioned in the Original Post, however, it wasn't until Illan, an ex-author, asked to become one of the senior members of a fraternity that the suggestion gained popularity. Two frats were immediately coined: Alpha Poseidis; headed by Illan's (now abandoned) Vizil ZKalis, and Sigma Draco, headed by an early character design by Aona.

The story arc would have seen each character choosing a fraternity to join, and the subsequent rivalry between the two. Many ideas for storylines were proposed, including the sabotaging of parties, a Fraternity Olympics, and a race for Student Body representation.

At one time, there were plans to include another fraternity and a single sorority, but these ideas never made it past initial concepts.

Alpha Poseidis
Alpha Poseidis was originally planned to be an aquatic-focused fraternity, with numerous pools and aquariums in-house. This frat quickly gained popularity Out of Character, and was more popular than Sigma Draco. It was the first fraternity concept introduced.

Sigma Draco
Sigma Draco was planned to be an incredibly tall structure, with numerous balconies. It was aimed to center around flying or otherwise more beast-like students. Sigma Draco was less popular than Alpha Poseidis, due to its later introduction, and its lack of an established character as its leader.

Failure
The arc was well-received among the authors, and excitement and speculation became unreasonably high. Joshulia, reluctant to allow the arc to exist, placed it on hiatus until the story developed further, instead replacing it with a school-wide party, and hype quickly died down.

In addition, the leader of Sigma Draco was scrapped, instead being replaced with Parat Ikarus, the creator of the new party. After an attack by the Seven Deadly Sins, and the subsequent invasion of The Academy and relocation to Paris, France, the fraternity storyline was abandoned completely.
