In the surrounding area of Washington DC, there is a large academy for the studies of supernatural and miscellanious abilities, often reffered to as ASMA. Students are chosen by their parents' statuses, most students in the school from wealthy company owners. However, there are special exceptions where the students get lucky, and are drawn into the academy. It wasn't opened until 2014, and now has 2 major dorms. Each student's dorm and classes are chosen based on many factors, such as gender, eye color, and hair color. Rare and natural colors, like blue and green, or for hair, blond and red, are often placed into the higher dorm. The two major dorms are called the Defense Dorm and the Offense Dorm. As their names suggest, the Defense Dorm is where students learn defensive abilities, and the Offensive Dorm is where students learn offensive abilities. However, the dorms are divided into two smaller groups. The two groups for the Defensive Dorm are Charm and Science, while the two for the Offensive Dorm are Arcana and Force. Students in the Charm group will learn abilities to evade, block, and weaken attacks, while Science will learn how detect weaknesses in an enemy, metalwork, and the use of chemicals. Students in the Arcana group will learn how to attack with magic skills, most will learn attributed skills, and Force group will learn physical combat skills. If a student is caught attempting to learn from a class that is not assigned to his or her schedule, he or she will be expelled. The age limit is 15-20 for students, and teachers may be 18+. Each week, the school holds two exams; a written exam and a combat exam. The exam scores(5 is an A, 4 is a B, 3 is a C, 2 is a D. Students with an F or below won't get in) will be factors that decide a student's schedule modifications, if requested. However, the school assigns dorms and classes as it sees fit.
(So basically, it's like a Hogwartz xD, that's the info to build your character around.)

Student or Teacher: Student
If teacher, subject (s)he teaches:
Test Score:
Background info: parents are a nurse and pharmacist, however they are divorced, so money on both sides is scarce. Lives on the west coast, and finally talked his parents into letting him attend ASMA, especially after he kept getting beat up at school.

Age: 24
Name: Katayida Maheteha
Gender: Female
Species: Horse
Physcial Description: Dapple grey mare, black points, blue and purple also in black mane and tail. White scar on left fetlock, stripe down front of right hoof.
Student or Teacher: Teacher
If teacher, subject she teaches: Charm.
Background info: Katayida is originally from Greece, and her name means Tempest Warrior, roughly translated from Greek to English. She has years of knowledge on defensive combat, but took up teaching endurance, evasion, and agility because fighting defensively without these things are useless.
(I can get more detailed if you like me to, also can we play more than one character?)
-
Sorry for not saying it but yes you may have more than one. And you have to pick a class to teach, one of the listed under the character group o-oUnless you want all. However, I doubt all will be used as I doubt we will get more than 3 people.
-
unless we get more people, I wouldnt mind changing classes so Katayida can have some people to teach :D
-
:P I didn't assign your schedule. I'm waiting for more to join before I do so so I can group together. Just cuz you're in fighter group, doesn't mean you won't get other groups classes.
-
oh sorry XD thought we got to choose...yeah that makes things easier :)
-
Well I'm trying to simulate a school, and you rarely get to choose your schedule(at least in California, anyway.) Besides, a fighter needs defense or he's just a monkey. :P
Age: 16
Name: Blair Avery
Gender: Female
Species: Human
Physical Description: Blair has medium length gold hair, which is naturally wavy. It goes down to a bit past her shoulders. She often wears dresses, however none are too fancy. Her eyes are a light shade of grey, and she herself stands at an average height.
Background info; Blair is the daughter of the Secretary of State and the head of the Department of Homeland Security. (In this fictional world, one is a female and the other is a guy with the last name Avery xD) This is well known at school, along with the fact she has lived a life of luxury, and has barely avoided press coverage. She can be straightforward and rude, or shy and kind. There are several rumors around the school saying Blair is actually a male, due to her flat chest and semi masculine face, along with the fact she never showers when others are in the dorm showers.
Test Score: 5
If we don't get anymore within a day I'll make the schedules.
-
yeah thats cool i was just confused
-
Katayida will mostly focus on Agility and Endurance. To me, actually being in physical sports, those are the things that go together. Kay also can teach the fighter classes, but I prefer to do the charm classes. Hopefully we'll get more interest. Build your story a bit more to get others interested.
I'm bringing another character in as a student....
Age: 16 almost 17
Name: Nashayan Rio
Gender: Male
Species: Wolf
Physical Description: White/grey wolf, white tufts in ears, and big paws. 6' tall, 180lbs of muscle.
Student, or Teacher: Student
Test Score: 3, but shows potential.
Background Info: Nash is a hardheaded, cold hearted, fighter. His family comes from northern New York, and they are very well to-do. Nash has thrown a bone in their classy family life for years, and his parents have finally decided to send him off to boarding school so he can hone his aggression.
Class: Fighter
-
I'll cover all the courses that no one does, it's no biggy. You can keep your charm :3 I was planning that each student gets at least one of each groups, so it shouldn't be too difficult.
-
This sounds pretty awesome and thought through. It'd be nice to get my RP skills going again :3
Character Sheet
Age: 19
Name: Lance Smith
Gender: Male
Species: Pegasus
Physcial Description: Tall and broad. his coat is of a off-white. His eyes shone with a muted red colour in the iris, accompanied with medium length locks of fiery red hair. He wears a suit most places with slits cut in the back for his wings, with a small flame pendant he wears around his neck. Due to the extensive exercises he subjected himself to, his pody was toned and powerful and he took great pride in it.
Student or Teacher: either or I dont mind
If teacher, subject (s)he teaches: any of them
Test Score: Do we have to rp this or make it up? if so I got a written 3 combat 5
Background info: Lance was brought up in a wealthy family, though due to his parents busy and high-profile life-style, they never really had much time for him. He had a sister however called Kiri and the two were very close. However his sister was drafted into a program for gifted individuals and whisked off to a far away place. Lance hasn't seen her since.
this okay?
-
Perfect. I'm just going to make you a student to balance things out.
Dorm assignments:
Nashayan: Fighter
Dingo: Fighter
Blair: Charm
Lance: Charm
Blair:
1. Classical Magic
2. Singular Combat
3. Agility and Damage Reduction
4. Endurance
Dingo:
1. Evasion and Defense
2. Singular Combat
3. Speed
4. Basic Magic
Nashayan:
1. Evasion and Defense
2. Singular Combat
3. Speed
4. Basic Magic
Lance:
1. Classical Magic
2. Singular Combat
3. Agility and Damage Reduction
4. Endurance
Arcana and Fighter groups have lower quality dorm, while Charm and Science have the higher quality dorm.(again, biasm within the education system.)
Lemme explain the classes.
Classical magic is an advanced Arcana course which teaches forms of magic that aren't elemental or basic, most are attributed dark or light. Dark gives more damage, light uses heal skills.
Evasion and Defense is a basic Charm course which teaches skills that a person can use to dodge or block attacks, both physical and magic.
Singular combat is a basic Fighter course which teaches (SHOCKER!) one on one combat.
Agility and Damage Reduction is an advanced Charm course which enhances skills learned in Evasion and Defense, and also teaches skills which will make an opponent's attacks weaker.
Speed is an advanced Fighter course which teaches speed and advanced combat styles.
Endurance is another advanced Charm course where students learn how to take damage and use their opponents' energy against them.
Basic Magic is a basic course which teachers unattributed magic.
Still taking students and teachers, however, I will assign if I need to. :P If you're not happy with your classes, say so. However, remember that other people will be affected by your schedule as well. I'm trying to make the dorms match.
Will open at 4pm(Pacific Timing)
-
So Katayida will teach all classes 3 and 4 for Blair and Lance?

-
Yes. I would also like you to teach 1 for the other two. I can do Arcana. However if someone wants to be a teacher, it is still open. I am not doing Science classes as it is a small group
-
I teach anything involving sertain magic like bending things and making, Close combat like swords, fists, just anything there.
-
@Black Unicorn; I'm going to keep you in Fighter class, because if you teach both you'll have to be almost immediate response to everything.
Teacher app~
Name: Dawn Raymond
Gender: Female
Age: 24
Species: Tigress
Subject: Arcana
Physical Description: Dawn is a 6'2" tigress, with orange and black coloring. Her eyes are yellow, and she often dresses in black pants and a leather coat. She has short hair(for a woman), which is jet black. She has a slender build.
Background:
Dawn is one of the first teachers to teach Arcana skills, due to the goverment's disbelief until recent discoveries. She cannot teach detailed into each section except basic, so she relies on her books to educate students, and is a very strict teacher.
-
Thats fine >.<
-
http://www.thefurryforum.com/forums/index.php?topic=17744.0 (http://www.thefurryforum.com/forums/index.php?topic=17744.0) There is the thread, free post, but for the future, you cannot have the class period end if the teacher doesn't post at least once.
Also, I'm still taking apps for anyone who wants to get in.
-
I'll see how two characters go, and if we don't get a science teacher, then I'll bring another one of my characters on board. (I have many, Kay and Nash are just my primary.)
-
Im kinda making science null for now, as everyone has a schedule without it. If the RP grows I'll put it in.
-
Hey Gen, do you think we should break this up by class? We've got 3 teachers, and 4 students. Of course NRP students, but I'm looking at the schedule and based on the classes Katayida teaches (I'm just taking all of the Charm classes) she has each student at least once.
-
I did that on purpose :3 And I'm not doing that until the fourth friend of ours gets in. After the day is over it'll go by classes.
-
Sounds good. :)
I will try to be as active as possible throughout the day, but I'm mostly active at night.
-
Once we get into classes, each period won't end until each character has input at least once.
-
im always active >.<
-
I've got school til 5 30pm PST.
-
Yeah but this is good for me as I can get really busy during the day so it takes me a while to reply :p
also I have work most days and other engagements
-
i can usually respond around 4pm pacific time
-
I will be away for the next three days...
-
I'll put a substitue teacher then? O.o Class must go on!
-
yes, lets say i had to go take care of things ;)
-
Or you got sick xD
-
ha, funny >.<
-
From eating a bad taco :O like a normal person.
-
doesnt eat tacos..
-
Wrapping up the first day >.>
-
Woo! lets get to the claseesss!!!
*slithers around the floor like a snake*
-
nash and dingo are still in cafeteria! :p
we will be asleep after next time Katayida posts since were ending the day
-
That's why I'm not going to progress til the morning until you guys wrap it up ^.^
-
k we will, dont want to keep ya guys waiting
-
Don't rush too much :P keep up your post quality.
-
Rylo doesnt show up for the next three days, unkown absense, lets leave it at that k..
-
Sorry guys, I've been buried in Math homework all night long. Ughhhhh. Will get Nash and Dingo out of the Cafeteria ASAP and to sleep, and then start classes, after my first rl class ends at 1pm EST tomorrow.
BlackUni, don't worry about the reason you're missing....it's not important to the RP, per say.
Gen, do you want me to sub a teacher for Rylo's fighter classes, or did you want to do it yourself?
-
I'll do it, cuz if I do it I can force a combat scene >:D xD
But do you know what you're going to be teaching for the Charm classes? I haven't explained what the students are learning fully, or at least I don't think.
So I was inspired to do this RP through I game I play(Trickster Online :D) And I'm going to semi base the abilities off of the IG skills. Evasion and Defense would learn basic skills, which were how to dodge and block. You're going to make up some bullcrap move names, which enhance the students' defense or dodging abilities. And of course, just teach them how to dodge. However, each RPer can develope their own "style" as Blair was talking to Lance about. It's a preference, and each RPer can make their moves unique to themselves. Like Blair would focus on dodging, as she had said.
Agility and Damage Reduction would be teaching students how to stop other students, particularly Arcana and Fighter students, or interrupt them in the sequence of pulling off an ability of their own. For Arcana students, I think anything that would break their focus would be enough to interrupt them. Fighter students would probably have abilities that are made of chain attacks(Horse, go on and make these up, I'm not a fighter type guy, so I am not too creative) so the student would stop the chain by, say it was a kick, they would grap the ankle and twist. Those are the basics, I want you to build your creativity on these basics, cuz I'm too lazy to :D Plus, I think you'd be happier teaching stuff you like :3
Endurance: Teaching students abilities to help them continue on, so it'd be like tightening your muscles to feel less pain.
Fighter basics: Fighter class would learn moves like chains, which would strike certain points in a student's body to weaken them, and build to a main attack. This is for singular combat. That's the most I can think of right now. ><
Speed would be teaching students how to, as it says, GO FASTER. It would teach them how to be swift, but deal a lot of damage at the same time.
Arcana, I'm going to explain anyway.
Basic Magic: Attributeless magic. Students learn how to harness internal energy and turn theirselves into an output, which will release the energy in a certain form depending on the student. They might also learn miscellanious students.
Classical: Attributed magic. Students will choose dark, light, or will keep neutral. More energy harnessing, however, dark students will be more able to use offense while light will be more able to use miscellanious skills and healing forms. Neutral has yet to be decided lol ._.
I kinda also gave you some ideas of how to introduce the students to the class through a speech :O
-
I got Charm down for sure. Do you want me to post what I am planning on "teaching" for each section?
-
Go on :3
-
May I teach them swords and weapons at some points?
-
yeah but if you look at it at a teacher's perspective, it would probably be smarter to first teach them basic hand to hand. That'd probably be a fighter class advanced class or something, but if ya want we can do it in the normal classes. it's your subject, so do what you see fit. also, teachers should also try to use demonstrations in lessons.
-
Charm:
Evasion and Defense
The first class will start out very basic, hand outs, introductions, and basic moves of evasion on basic fighting attacks. The evasion tactics will build from there, to full on defensive moves where a student will be taught how to attack using some of the crossover methods from Agility and Damage Reduction.
Agility and Damage Reduction
Starting with footwork drills, and building to faster footwork drills. Damage reduction will string along with evasion and defense, because it has to do with blocking, while distracting your competitor so the student may get a harder hit in, and/or regain a little bit of their own strength.
Endurance
Starting with hill running, and sprints this class will build overall endurance, and then muscular strength in a battle that will have them on their toes the whole time, while the competitor is sweating, and unable to keep up with the fancy footwork from the agility sector of Charm.
-
My name is Gen Jinrav, I approve of that message.
Remember you have to also test the students in addition to the training. Your tests would be things like flexibility, fitness, and a combat test as well. I'm starting Arcana with a written test of puzzles, and for fighter class I'm basically going to have the students fight(NPCs v RPer)
-
No worries. I'm very creative.
-
I have creative capability, I just rarely use it xD
-
Having some real life troubles today with an exam I'm very ill prepared for. Promise to post as soon as possible to keep this RP moving.
xo,
-Kay
-
I'm afraid I cant participate from here until monday I'm afraid. Internet outage while they put in some new lines. just say im in the background. Ill catch up when I get back :3
sorry guys
-
I think I'll just drag him around. I could play him, but I don't think I'd convey how Cairi would want him to act. Plus I'm already acting for 3 chars x.x
-
Hey Dingo- I don't care that you throw in a little powerplay every once in awhile (it has to be done) but I just wanted to be sure that you knew that Kay is one of my characters and I'm actually playing her.
-
ok sorry, i knew she was ur char :l
this is my first rp, wont do it again
-
For a first RP you're doing good. However, try not to make other characters do actions or use dialogue unless it's your character or unless someone tells you to take over for them
That aside, sorry for not posting, I've been working on my school's anime club events and have been doing AP homework x.x I'll post tonight I promise.
-
Yeah, I totally agree with Gen, for your first RP you're doing fantastically! I used to be a boss forum RPer back in the day so I've played all types. If you have any questions about stuff you can post it up on here.
Gen, no worries, I've been swamperfied by my college courses. Tis beginning term test weeks. Ugh.
-
hehe, im back.
-
Horse, your first class starts about now.
-
Question: In the single combat classes are we sparring against one another or against NPCs? I don't mind either, and it's actually more fun to spar against one another, but I just want to be sure that's what the plan is.
-
Todays class is only to see what uve got so far
-
I know that, but are we sparring other characters, aka are Dingo and Nash up against one another, or is Dingo going to fight another "classmate" that is a fight he makes up on his own?
-
fight eachother or an imaginary student, either way works
-
For combat with each other I recommend that the two IM or PM something together and then copy and paste the fight on a post. If necessary, toss a coin to determine who will win.
-
That's a good suggestion. I'm going to PM Dingo now, and we'll PM the fight, I think Black Unicorn should determine the winner though since it's his class.
Post Merge: September 12, 2011, 03:47:26 AM
Okay, so since Dingo and I are both online right now we're going to do the fight on board, and quickly so it doesn't hold the RP up at all. It technically shouldn't be long anyway, and I'm pretty sure B_U is online somewhere too.
-
O.o, i think you two should be beat badly comparing to what ive seen in the rp so far >.<
-
Feel free to break us up if we seem like we're going to kill each other, or neither of us decides to back down. It's part of your job as a teacher to determine the winner of a fight and a loser, but please don't call it prematurely.
-
Well I'm just trying to prevent OCC biasm. And I'm sorry if I chose an easy opponent for the first fight, or if it seems like godmodding that I won. I'll probably lose the second to even it out.
-
That makes sense. If you fight an NPC and win, and then lose the next/vice-versa then you are not god-modding. Don't worry. :)
-
Waiting for Black Unicorn
-
Im sorry if Rylo isnt nice, he was trained like this and had to train others like it in his past as a general.
-
Rylo doesn't have to be nice, but could you make your posts a bit longer? More descriptive? Like, asking specifically what you want from your students?
Post Merge: September 13, 2011, 02:11:36 AM
I think Nash and Dingo need a bit of a break now before their speed fighter class....Which will also be taught by Rylo, but in a different area of the same building, just for kicks.
-
ill try to put more detail, normally when I dont, I am normally ina hurry.
-
If you're in a hurry, don't bother to post. Post when you aren't rushed, the quality is usually better.
Also, I agree with the break because Cairi still isn't back so Blair has no one to class with. I think we can make this lunch? It makes sense that lunch would be between 2 & 3 to me.
-
i agree. lunch time sounds good.
-
Sounds good. I'll have Nash get his hand checked by the ortho during lunch period. He'll just be grumpy about not eating later. XD
-
hey guys, my internet is back now so I'll be able to post. just give me a few to catch up
-
It's fine, you were there spiritually. X3
Didn't miss much, I just pushed you into the background.
-
Hooray for having internets back!! :D
-
Cairi you dork xD you had classic magic first class. The charm teacher doesn't teach magic classes c:
-
Black Unicorn you have a class to teach now. Speed for Nash and Dingo.
-
oh I see, oopsy, ill be on it
-
Sorry I haven't posted anything this weekend you guys, I'm managing a really important sports tournament, and to spare you all the long and unneeded details- I basically had no idea how much responsibility it was actually going to be on me. I am completely overwhelmed, working solidly for 15-17 hours, and right now I really just want to cry myself to sleep. Thankfully tomorrow is the last day, and on Monday my schedule will return to normal, and so will my posting regularity. Again, very sorry.
-
dont sweat it katayida, dont overwhelm yourself :)
-
We'll still be here when you're done! *hugs*
-
@Kata: It's all good. Post when you're done~ :3 The forum'll be here when you're done.
@The others; I want to introduce the main conflict soon, so please try to get to your third classes soon/post. I'm going to give it away, the main enemy is the science dorm. However, none of our characters(even the teachers) know anyone or anything about it, except rumors.
-
sounds fun, cant wait to get it rollin :P
-
When my brain starts working fully after sufficient sleep, a massage, and some hot tub time tomorrow I will be posting and starting my classes. Man, I'm so glad this weekend is over. SO GLAD.
-
good to have you back kata, glad u made it :D
-
In order for me to progress with the plot, you guys have to POST. :L
-
I'm going to post now....can't guarantee it's going to be super descriptive/awesomesauce like my others have been. Still not recovered, and feeling pretty bummed out today.
-
I'll post when it's my turn, and once I manage to drag myself away from ponychan for a few minutes.
-
Need to get Black Unicorn to post something and adapt to Nash's injured hand, but remember B_U your character doesn't know anything about his injury since you didn't notice him slip out of the earlier class.
-
Ok, Im on it. Actually, before i do, tell me what exactly am i supposed to teach on speed, like what does it mean?
-
Look back a few pages. I explained all the subjects that each student has.
-
Gen, did Blair write the "If you want to know, find out for yourself" onto the name portion of her paper? Just wanted to clarify if that was a thought or an action.
-
It was what she wrote on where it had asked for details of herself, like interests, goals, whatever sugar coated stuff teachers put on there.
-
Oh okay, thanks for the clarification. ^_^
-
B. Unicorn has been removed from the thread for not posting or explaining why he isn't. I need a new fighter teacher. Just gonna say if anyone else wants to do it, it's best if you're teacher is arrogant, so I can connect their personality to their subject. We cannot move on without a fighter teacher, and if no one wants to do it I will. Just remember if someone else does it to keep their current character and the teacher seperate.
-
Could you put out a call for someone, Gen? Edit the title "Looking for new fighter teacher."
....I could string up another one of my characters, but both Gen and I are already playing two characters.
-
I don't want you to have too much Kata. And I could do that, however I'm trying to keep it between us four. Four is am easy number :3 If no one strings up I can, because magic and fighter have on/off classes. Charm and Fighter both have 3rd >.> I probably will because I want to get this rolling >.>
-
Very true. it's like roleplaying with myself. XD
-
Name: Armand Dyselli
Age: 37
Gender:Male
Species: Lion
Physcial Description: He's a largely built and muscular man(which'll make speed hard to teach xD) and his fur on his mane and the traces on the back of his arms is black. Elsewhere, his fur is snow white.
Student or Teacher: Teacher
If teacher, subject (s)he teaches: Fighter
If student, test score: -
Background info: Armand was a general in the United States army for quite a while. He is originally of French background, but he is ashamed of it and will not speak of it happily. He speaks what is, in his opinion, perfect English. However he slips into a French accent at times, especially with the "Th" sound.
Will post in a few minutes, I wanna go get breakfast first.
-
Hey Gen, isn't there one more class on this first day? (That's taken us 2 weeks to complete lol) Just remarking on Blairs comment.
-
Yeah but Lance and Blair have you for 2 in a row, so she called them one. And yeah it's been rather slow. >.>
-
Not hatin, the idea of this entire RP is wicked. I especially like that I get to play Kay and Nash in it. The hopefully the speed will pick up a bit, but with forum posting and only 4 people who live in totally different time zones, it's gonna be like that. I'm not going to move any students back to the classroom for Endurance, so your post makes perfect sense.
Also, please feel free to tell me to shut up/back off if I seem pushy. Sometimes I don't realize it. :S
-
I love pushiness, it gets stuff done. And yeah, I'm planning to end 3rd class within my next post to kinda speed it up.
-
It should be easy enough to do that. I'm just having agility and endurance blend into one another, but need Chonk to post.
-
Yeah, he'll probably get one in tomorrow, I'll message him to make sure. And it's good that you do that, most of the classes that are two in a row are supposed to be blendable.
-
Geez, i guess im too late, sry, I had to go without notice for awhile, hope you understand...
-
I apologize, but I checked your last activity before I posted it, not to mention the 6 days you had to post.. Imreally sorry but I'm keeping you out. I've already decided.
-
Just so everyone knows, Chonk (Lance) just let me know that his computer is on the fritz and said he hopes to be back within a couple of days.
-
k then.. >.>
-
Okay so I think I'll just move on keeping them in space or something xD. I can keep going with Dingo and Nash and we can realign timing later.
-
Sounds good to me.
-
any updates from Chonk?
Also, I love dialogue, if you couldn't tell x3
Finally, I had issues thinking of how a teacher would explain how to release mental energy in the physical form, if you didn't notice xD
Sorry I'm slow on posting lately, I'm 2 chapters behind in my AP History class and have to manage work for several events in a local LGBTQ support group and I'm trying to do my job in my anime club. x.x Plus I got an essay. X-X
-
Next time I catch him on skype I'll message him. Seems like everyone is really behind in their RP's due to school stuff right now. So it's totally understandable. :)
-
I'm behind in my school as well x.x Basically what's going on in my life is I have an executive breif(not for a real business or anything) due tomorrow along with an informative essay. Along with 4 chapters of detailed notes and reflection, and some chemistry homework. On the otherside, me and the other leadership members of a big GSA group are planning an event attenerary. So my life's a bit chaotic. In addition to the fact I haven't been recieving reply notficiations via email. -__-
-
A bug or just no replies?
Ps. Talked to Chonk. He said that what happened is that his friend basically crushed his motherboard and CPU so he's got to buy an entire new one. (I assume this means he had it uncased) and only has phone access, but can't post from his phone because the site doesn't read right and he can't adjust his posts to the way he wishes them to be. Supposedly a friend is lending him a laptop soon, so he hopes to be back online. He also says that he's deeply sorry.
Want to put this RP on hold completely over the weekend so you can do what you need to do? Life not be so cray-cray.
-
We can hold it for Chonk, but if we were holding for me, we'd be holding forever. It all piles up. Tell him it's okay, it's not that huge of a deal. He can post when it works for him. We can keep going in the magic classes, because it's going to be a LOT of dialogue and descriptions(hope you two are prepared ;D)
-
I'm prepared. Can you change Dawn's dialogue color to something thats easily readable though. Blue was only for Nash cause he doesn't talk too much. Long dialogues of blue I simply cannot read without highlighting.
-
This okay?

Hey whitewolf,
In serious RP's you have to wait for the RP creator to approve your character before posting into the RP.
Sorry for backseat modding, Gen. :$ Just spotted it while online.
-
oh sorry.
in the RP's on furtopia you could join at any time.
my mistake.
-
I'm sure it's fine, just wait for Gen to approve your character.
-
*rage quits!!* loljk o-o
Sorry haven't posted, really busy because I've two days until the first event and another is creeping upon me.
For future reference, please wait for me to approve before posting in the RP. >.> I have to make schedules and stuff for the person
Finally, the teleporting and mind reading isn't going to work in this RP. I hate modifying others characters, and I had never stated it before, I know. But all skills are learned through classes or books. I probably am not going to allow teleportation in the future, because it in itself without any limits can be god modding. Furthermore, I am NOT allowing mind reading. Period. In all basics it can make a character all knowing, and is generally irritating. Please delete your post and message me so I may explain further. I apologize again, but I must keep it equal. If your character poofs in, and suddenly knows everything everyone else does, it defeats all attempts at plot I may make. Also, you can steal another character's thunder, which is rude.
Again, I apologize. But please send me a message, I wish to work something out.
Also, Katayida(I'm calling you that cuz it's what I know how to spell and I know you as it.) or Dingo, in the future all teachers are going to meet in the principle's office and I'm going to be playing Science teacher and principle. If one of you could take over the fighter or the arcana teacher for that time, I would be quite delighted. After it I will resume.
And really finally, I'm going make Chonk null until he gets back. So basically, he's in the class still but the question Blair had asked is now gone. It never happened o.o
-
i dont know how to deletea post aand i only use teleportation when i think it would make the story more interesting.
-
Kay will still be Kay, and I can take over Fighter teacher in the principals office. I can take on your white lion character. (Sorry, I can't remember his name right now)
-
at your request and instruction i shall delete my post
-
@Katayida: Lovely, and don't worry. I can barely remember his name either. It's Armand xD Not exactly one of the common names... Also, sorry for taking your player over for the arm thing, I just really didn't want to wait for you to post about putting your arm out. :3
@whitewolf: I know what you're saying, it's just this rp in itself is very limitting, and that's kinda part of the idea. It takes place in an academy, there are rules and restrictions to be applied. So basically, the academy is oppressing you and so am I. It's just I like to have limits upon characters. Because I dislike godmodding extremely. I'm not doing teleporting... It's just... This takes place in Modern USA, and if you could teleport you'd probably be locked away or killed or something of the sort. I'm trying to keep this as real as possible, which is hard with the Arcana dorm in play. I have no issue with you joining, but it's just kyah. I will allow you to be in the Classical Magic classes, because I need someone to take over where Chonk disappeared. So basically, I'll match your schedule with Blair's. I'm really bending when I do this, but for the sake of it, if you want, your character can have the knowledge of Basic Magic classes(basically how to do a mana-based attack, basic healing, a basic shield, and how to extract your mental energy), which no one else has. Even though Chonk and Blair are in the advanced magic class, they've no clue how to even touch upon Basic Magic, so it'd be quite the advantage. Finally, you have to put more detail in. Longer post length, better grammar, staying in one point of view, basic stuff like that. For my sanity's sake, please. >< Is that fine? Don't post yet, though. I want you to rewrite your character profile with more information on him.
If nobody could tell, I'm making up this magic crap as I go. Lol.
-
do me a favor ?
dont treat me special.
if the others know little about magic then i want to know little, maybe less, possibly nothing.
-
All right then. However, you're still going to have to put more detail in.

age:15
name: aeron foxx
gender:male
species: anthro arctic wolf
physical discription: lean, lightly muscled, scar over right eye, wears blue jeans, and a tight leather jacket(always unzipped), no shirt, has bluish eyes (flecks of gold), never wears shoes, about 5' 8" , weighs around 175.
status: student
test score: A(guessed mostly and is clueless to how he scored so high)
background info: is a slacker, knows little to nothing about magic, shy around all girls near his age, comes from a foster home, parents abandoned him at age 4, is a rebellious rule breaker, otherwise quiet and introverted.
(if you need any more info please post asking and tell me exactly what you need to know)
-
Make sure small paragraphs when you post. You're in the charm class with Blair(see first page).
-
what courses do i have?
-
1) Classical Magic
2) Singular Combat
3) Agility and Damage Reduction
4) Endurance
First is an arcana class, second is fighter, and third and forth are Charm. You are in the luxurious Charm Dorm, with Blair and Lance(who isn't able to post for a while.) I may have switched class names on the last two by accident but both are under the same teacher so it doesn't matter C: Your schedules match Blair and Lance's. RP Time is 4th class, about 2pm.
-
is there a specific posting order?
-
No, hasn't been so far. It's mainly free post, but going in some what of an order is necessary to keep the time and classes running smoothly.
-
whats with the red folder?
-
It's just part of your testing, all of the Agility and Damage Reduction/Endurance Students have them to track their progress. It's just part of the game.
Also, just a note from me, you can keep playing in 1st person if you want to, but the rest of us play in 3rd person past tense. And when you said that my character flinches at the sound of your voice...that's considered power playing. A little bit of it is allowed, but generally it's not. I know Gen doesn't like it, and many others are a lot more strict about power playing on their RPs.
-
ok im sorry i dont rp much and when i do its mainly just with friends.
so is it like a written test?
if it is then why am i taking it on my first day?
-
It's not, go back through the threads and reread my posts. There's only one that explains it all. Kay is your professor she talks in orange, and Nash is my other character who is a student who talks in blue. I often post both of them on the same post.
-
Whitewolf, a teacher is in their room for about an hour after class ends. They're not going to let a student stay in there, because it is the teacher's room. I dunno what you're trying to do but please use some realism ._. I apologize, but you gotta ask yourself a lot of "in a real life situation, would..." questions.
-
i was gonna make up the day i missed.
and i am very patient.
-
You can't. The day is over and Professor Kay is about to go into a meeting with the principal, and the other teachers. Best to just edit your post and say that you're going back to your dorm.
-
i was going to run the track a couple of times.
alone.
-
That is not contributing to the plot at all. >.>
-
ummmm are you still excepting new characters....?
-
you will see.
just give me a chance to run the track alone.
Post Merge: October 18, 2011, 12:18:02 AM
btw what are the time records for each of the agility exercises?
-
Elaborate what it is you plan to do White.
@Kaya; yes. Don't post until I approve a profile though
-
ok profile will be comming shourtly.
-
i plan on doing my characters best to break the records and present the results to you the following day.
-
There were no records recorded today, just resting pulse, active pulse, and recovery pulse.
-
Records don't mean much as the academy has only been open for a year, though.

Humans are allowed. I'm just going to give you the same schedule until another person shows up, and you want an advanced class. Other than you're fine to post. Try to use a light dialogue color though.
1) Classical Magic(dark/light type things)
2) singular combat
3) agility and damage reduction
4) Endurance
-
thanks. i have to head off for the night.. -yawn- 11 pm i have a test in the morning so i will be back bright and early, at 815am
-
Kay, now would be the time to take over Professor Dyseli. I expect to get the meeting started soon.
Whitewolf, you can keep following Blair, but if you don't introduce yourself and she notices you following her, she'll rudely ask what you're doing.
-
On it. I'm going to post Nash's visit to the nurses office after the meeting is over, since it should turn out to be a rather long post, much like the first. Though I'll try to shorten it a little bit.
-
i was going to stay true to my character (shy and silent)
and if she notices i will probobly either force a conversationout of myself or i will run off saying that i for got somthing in my dorm.
-
i percieve your true character in this rp as cocky and arrogant lol. o-o The way you acted around the teacher made you look like you were trying to put on a show.
Dingo; we're on the eastern side of the United States near DC, there are no mountains nearby.. ._. at least I don't think D:
-
i am arrogant around crowds. but as i said near girls my age..........kinda shy
-
My bad, forgot where the setting was exactly @.@
-
the applachin mountians are close, tho im not sure how close (i live in North Carolina)
i know my character because i play his reactions and emotions off of how i wuold react or feel.
-
Kay, now would be the time to take over Professor Dyseli. I expect to get the meeting started soon.
Whitewolf, you can keep following Blair, but if you don't introduce yourself and she notices you following her, she'll rudely ask what you're doing.
alright what class are they teaching?
-
anyone know where Gen is ?
-
Apologies, Kaya. I was speaking to Jovial sparkplug.
I was at school. -.-
-
haha sorry i got confused... XD
-
um Gen? what time is it where you live?
-
4 30. PST.
-
it is 7:30 here.
Post Merge: October 18, 2011, 11:41:23 PM
well what are we waiting for? lets get our RP on!!!
-
7:43 pm here. :)
-
Hey Gen me and Kaya both agreed that it would be beneficial if someone would draw a campus / city map.
-
..... my 'sonna is a bit lost and a map would be nice........
-
A map would be useful.
Whitewolf and Kaya- My old named used to be Katayida aka Kay and Gen has elected to continue calling me Kay.. Which I don't mind. Kay is also the name of the teacher of all of the Charm classes that Gen has described on the 2nd and 3rd pages of this OOC thread.
Also, there are mountains near DC, but not within view of DC. More in the Northern Virginia area. I'm from Maryland so I'm pretending this school is in the slightly more rural part of DC to be able to support a full campus. But you can't see any mountains until you hit Northern Virginia and it depends on where you enter it as well. Perspective from a local.
-
I said near DC, because it's a major blimp on anyone's map. Most international maps won't show small states like Maryland(no offense). But basically the academy itself is in a rather green area about a 100 yards far(size of a football field.) from a major city that shall have no name at this time, because it's not important. Yes, I know this is unrealistic, but it works with me e.e So basically, the Academy is on the edge of a city, so the end opposite of the entrance faces a more rural area.
-
^.^ thanks
-
None taken. It's 1:30am (EST) Ovs MD=Eastern Time so I'm going to sleep. -.- Will post in the morning to everything that has just happened.
-
Won't be home til 730pm tonight.
-
ok what time is that here?
-
8:30 here. Whitewolf.
Guys I'm sick, like really really sick, so I've been spending a lot of time in bed hacking up a third lung I didn't know I had. Will be posting as much as possible.
-
ok i hope you get better
-
hope you feel better <3

wont be able to post over the weekend!! sorry!
-
Tallice, you're going to wear clothes, lol.
-
lol well i dont wear a shirt or shoes (tho i do wear a leather jacket but i always keep it un-zipped)
-
Try to. Remember, this is an academy. It's expected you wear clothing, a top, bottoms, and feet covering ._.
-
but i already typed that and you agreed to it. (plus my paws won't fit in shoes)
-
I apologize, I hadn't thought much of it. Please don't be difficult, I was tired on Saturday and looked over it. It's just I have to make Tallice put on clothes, I have to make you put on clothes. I apologize for going back on my word like that, and I realize I should've pointed it out in the first place, but just please.
-
ok.can i still go without shoes tho ? i do in real life.
-
Just don't mention the fact you don't have any... Lol. That way in you're head you're not and in my head you might be xD
-
ok thts cool
-
@ whitewolf... um not to sound mean but i think our group may have left you with Blair
-
well i was just stopping you for a second to tell you something you might find realy funny.
-
oh thanks. :) i got a tad confused.. :3
-
The whole group hasn't left yet until Dingo posts, don't jump ahead like that. Nash has just stormed off as that's part of what he does/what his character is like. Dingo knows Nash pretty well only a day in so lets see what Dingo does.
-
XD Ah sorry sorry sorry.. XD still new *lets head fall onto table* sorry...
-
hey i g2g its waaaaayyyyyy past time for me to get some sleep i have to get up in five and a half hours.
-
I apologize for falling behind, had a busy evening. Will post ASAP
-
x.x Must catch up! Jesus guys D: Don't move so fast with 1 line posts. This is serious rp, I said medium length... A paragraph of at least 3 sentences, please. ._.
Serious rp rules, read them. http://www.thefurryforum.com/forums/index.php?topic=14759.0 (http://www.thefurryforum.com/forums/index.php?topic=14759.0)
Furthermore, two people cannot post in the same pattern twice in a row. Ex, Dingo and Jovial are having dialogue.
Dingo: "Hi."
Jovial: "Hi. Whatsup?"
Dingo: "Nothing."
Jovial: "K."
(Just a lame example.)
This is the maximum between two people, to try to keep everyone caught up. The two people then have to wait for all the others to post(with the exception of people who are away for extended periods of time[Ex, 3 days.]) to move on. >.>
-
Got it, sorry gen
-
Thank you for clarifying Gen.
-
question. who am i with? or am i alone?
-
whitewolf to me it seems like you stayed behind with gen's character blair
kaya ur more than welcome to be with us at the moment. there was kind of a crazy moment when all the characters clashed and it got confusing who went where, but lets try better next time to keep things more organized
-
Skip my post this time, just end the night x.x
-
Kaya- this is an example of what Gen was talking about. While I'm online and could reply to your message, I'm going to wait for Dingo to catch up and let him post. Making your posts more descriptive in detail could be something like "Cassandra entered the room and nodded to Nash, "Thanks." Her eyes widened.....etc." and then add on some more description to the end like "She saw a couch with two arm chairs around a coffee table that had a deck of cards on it. It looked like some other kids had been in here playing cards earlier, but the only sign of them now was a little bit of trash near the couch." Something like that, just to pain the picture a little bit more, and give the other players more to go off of.
-
oh so more fluf... alright. :)
-
Exactly! I saw your edit. It looks good. I liked the add ins. Nice job. :D
-
thanks.. well uh.. i didnt see where Gen put me in with the doorms.. would i be in the Charms or... Arcna?
-
You're a magic player so you'd be in the Charm dorms. Just make your room up for tonight, though I'm sure he'll pair you and whitewolf up in a a room.
-
thanks. :)
-
I said Arcana Dorms. ._. I have 3 people in Charm(Blair, White, and Lance.) Tallice is going to be in the Arcana dorms with you, Kaya. Also your new schedule is something around;
Classical Magic
Singular Combat
Elemental Magic
Endurance
For both Tallice and Kaya.
You'll have the first 2 and last classes with White and Blair, but the third will be where you two take off to magic again. After you'll go back to a Charm class.
-
thanks :)
-
it will be a little bit before i can actully play. im still devoted though. B)
-
is it a school rule or an rp rule that we can't learn the other side of magic?
-
i will not be aviable for posting this weekend.. have some stuff to do, you can post without me. :) i dont care i can get caugfht back up eventually. :)
-
@white: both. I'm basing this off of a game, and I'm trying to prevent god modding.
-
oh ok so i cant stay awake at the library all night to learn more about the other subjects?
-
You can but you can't suddenly show up and be all "I'm an expert. Blah blah blah"
The magic rule is basically you can learn one of the listed things:
Electricity and Water
Water and Wind
Wind and Earth
Earth and Fire
Fire and Electricty
Dark
Light
You can learn the basics of a listed combination of elemental magic and the basics of dark or light, or you can master a combination of elements listed above. You cannot learn both dark and light. Those are the limitations. Mastering a single area(dark/light/a combination of elemental) will make your magical attacks stronger than a person who knows basics.
-
can i master darkness and fire?
-
No. You cannot master a single element and a classical magic, if you integrate at all you only get basics.
-
ok thats cool
-
So Nash learning Dark in basic and then mastering Elemental Electricity and Fire is fine?
-
No. Only basics. I do this because those three are power houses. Plus no one will have the option to be learning elements in class except Kaya and Tallice until we reach the end of the week, where you can request a schedule change. Furthermore, I think I can safely say you aren't going to fully master anything in a week ._.
-
Oh I didn't mean now, I meant over all at Nash's time at the academy in magic. He's in basic magic now, but later will be in a more advanced magic class, right?
-
Yes. IRP time one week, you may request schedule change. But a student cannot fully master both elemental and classical, even if s/he only learns one element.
-
This makes sense to me. No problem. Nash will just stick to Dark magic then. It seems more broad, and he's more on the Arcana fighter side anyway so it doesn't much matter. As far as starting day #2, Gen do you want to lead off? I think we can just do a skip ahead post with a lead in for tomorrow morning for classes.
-
iwanna learn dark!!!
-
back and ready for some action. :) even though its almost 11pm
-
SAME HERE!!!
-
Well, we've got to wait until Gen posts to stay in line with the plot and not jump ahead. Nash, Dingo and Blair have all gone off to bed.
-
ok thats fine only one problem, gen doesn't post often enough.(but that is just an opinion)
-
It's Gen's RP, and he's the game master and in control of what's going on in it. Most serious RP's don't post by 1 line and then go on from there. It's like Kaya said, more fluff, more description. More is better.
-
yeah ok its just sometimes i fell like i cant put down my thoughts accuratley and im kinda worried ill screw up and so i make the most basic post i can.
-
i feel like that too. it gets better with pratice, and you can always modify your post if it dosnt look right
-
really ? well now i feel somewhat better.
-
Dawn is teaching all magic classes for those who do not know. The majority of you are in her class right now.
-
does that inclued me???
-
Yes. I posted your and Kaya's schedule a page or two back
-
Kaya won't be on much for a week or so. Grounded.
-
Alright, thank you.
Everyone, apologies for making this so drawn out. School and all, as well as several outside responsibilities of mine popping up. Katayida and I are trying to fight out the fight, but we're doing it. I'll give you something so people in the line will be able to do something. Again, I apologize.
-
Hey Dingo,
I just wanted to point out that Nash is on the other side of the gym than Blair. He's closer to the doors, and she's still by the mat.
-
oh ok, ill go back and edit really quick
-
Im cool skipping 3rd period.
-
Same. Nothing really happens except for Cassandra but its basically another magic class so nothing major. Let's just skip it.
-
sorry i was rather ill recently. so from what i read, nash got mad at blair, dingo,nash and Whitewolves character are together and we are skipping third period. yes?
-
That pretty much sums it up, yeah.
-
Yup, sums it up well.
