The tribune at the Akademeia entrance who gives out expert trials.
You'd better be prepared if you're planning on participating in an expert trial. If you go in expecting a routine practice, you're in for an unpleasant surprise.
Class Sixth Cadet
Expert Trials (実戦演習, Jissen Enshū?, lit. Combat Exercises) are optional missions the player can undertake in Final Fantasy Type-0. They add new story scenes and provide a challenge and rewards. The level required to take them on is higher than the main scenario missions, and they are intended to be tackled on New Game Plus. They usually allow for fewer participants than main scenario missions. There needs to be at least 12 hours of free time left to take on a trial, and they are accepted by talking to the woman near the entrance of Akademeia. Like other missions, expert trials can be re-attempted at the Missions menu in the title screen.
