Class A
(Legend fior this post only: Purple is important, green is fairly important, and orange is not very important)
Hello and welcome to the Novice Level Class A! My name is Wolf'sflame and I'm the Proctor of this Class! Together we will battle common mistakes so you can all pass your tests with flying colours and be the VERY FIRST students to become Intermediate or Level 2 In CS history! (I'm not joking about that...) *yes, there is a test*
Goals for this Level: (These are what you need to have in posts in order to be tested)
In this level, we will be working on your…
•Character depth and insight -- you will be exploring your character’s thoughts, feelings and actions
•Grammar and Spelling – we hope to cut out all grammar and spelling problems early so that you can have an easier time in the next few levels
•Fluidity – we will steer you away from dead enders and rocky sentences!
•Avoidance of Gary/Mary Sues and power playing/god modding – because these are rude and annoying
•Turn Taking – because we want you to keep your head when you move out into the world of online rping
•Post Length – because nobody likes one-liners. You will have to post 8-9 lines (150 words ish) consistantly to be able to pass
A note: The Novice level, or Level 1, has the most goals, so don't be discouraged with this list, most of these are regular mistakes, and work on parts that you need to work on (I will critique it so it will be easier for you to figure that out) and the test will be a breeze. (Also, you will be tested when I think you are ready for it, students DON'T need to wait for the other students to do the test.)
And without further waiting give it up for our little Mascots!:

The moral of this little guy is to spell weird right.

[center]A Shapeshifter RP
Intro\Plot
Humans have found out something, they have found out about the small race of Shapeshifters. They're abilities allowed them to hide for a long time while dodging human suspicion. They had a human form, in which they would be able to approach humans easily, their hybrid form, for emergecy purposes only, and finally their animal form, where they look completely normal.
Upon discovery, the humans began to fear them, so then a Hunt arose, where humans would hunt down anyone suspected or seen of a Shapeshifter. This has created a problem for you. The real problem is that they have found out about you. Now you've had to leave your home to become on the run. Is there any place that is safe for you? Will there be any hope for you and the other shapeshifters?Can you actually survive?

Rules...
1. When I post, it will be in THIS colour so you all know where the critique is and such.
2. When you are talking out of character (which shouldn’t happen often during the actual practice), always write in between double parenthesis, or put “OOC:” in front of it.
3. If you wish to drop out at any time, PM me, so it doesn't seem like you dissappeared, never to return. (Though you will be one of many to not become an intermediate student) If something is going on with your life and can't get on, also PM me. If I suddenly dissappear for a certain amount of time without any notice, imform the Headmaster.
4. Please put the talking in bold so it is easier.
5. As usual, all of Tess's Rules apply (please also don't do Godmodding or anything)
6. If there is any of ...well.... you know, fade to black, and do not seriously injure or kill another character without permission (thought I doubt the killing part will happen)
7. if you do any cussing, please bleep it out, but let's all keep it to a minimal
8. Be patient with the other students and myself, we all have lives as well, so please don't spam around. (Patience is a virtue, and if you have patience, you WILL be a Level 2)
9. Please have a maximum of two characters (thought it is preferred to have just one) and wait to have your character accepted
10. have fun!

Creating Characters\Forms
Just like above one the goals, one of the aims of the Novice level is to teach you to consider every aspect of your character, or most of the aspects, which leads to creating a well-developed character who has some sustenance to him or her, and isn't one sided or "a cardboard cut-out". That being said, I think it would be good to have one or two characters per person, so that we're practicing. Like a regular RP, we have a character form (or skeleton) to create and expand on your character. (This one is designed to have a basic idea what your character looks and acts like.)

Turns
Since we ARE practicing, int order we will be doing this in a turn-based fashion. DO NOT STEP OUT OF TURN, that is unless I say that is allowed, not only do RP sites hate when that happens, but we are all learning so this makes it easier on everyone because it's annoying to try to learn this stuff when you have to wait for a recap.

Once the proctor has posted, you may start from the beginning of the turn list. (This doesn't include placing character forms)

She has some burn marks on her face from that fire and now fears fires above all else. She didn't find out she was a shape shifter until she was 6 years old. She only went to preschool and only knows her math skills. She was fostered until she found out about her shape shifting ability. Then she left and has been living in the forest. She made herself a shabby little house. (her story is longer, but I will make up parts as we go along)
Personality: She is shy at first and keeps her distance from unknown people. But once you get to know her she is fun and energetic. She is a trouble maker, and curious like a kid. She likes to goof around and go on adventures. She can be/feel awkward at times and is very emotional. She can hold grudges forever and can be aggressive towards those who have been mean to her. She can get very attached to things and hates it when those things are taken away.

Evanescence. wrote:Basic Information~
Name: Neko Valenz
Gender: Male
Age: 12
Hunter or Shapeshifter?: Shapeshifter
Weapon: XXX
Animal: Peregrine falcon
Appearance~
Human Form: In human form, Neko is rather small and skinny for his age, standing at around 4'10" and weighing approximately 72 pounds. Despite being small in both height and weight, Neko is extremely speedy and light. Neko has a pointed, slender face and slightly olive-colored skin. He has jet black hair that is messy and chin-length. It tends to hang over his face sometimes like a mop. Neko's eyes are a stunning cool-grey color, and they always seem to shine with excitement and brightness.
Hybrid Form: Neko's hybrid form is rather peculiar, as his animal form is a species of bird. His shoulder blades sprout small, agile wings, and his fingernails turn into sharp talons. His eye color becomes wicked-yellow, and grey-and-white feathers sprout up in small places such as the sides of his forearms up to his elbows, and along the sides of his shins up to the kneecap.
Animal Form: When in animal form, Neko shrinks down to a peregrine falcon. He has soft, grey plumage, with black tinges here and there in some places. His underbelly is pure white up to the base of his yellow and black beak. His eyes are a mesmerizing yellow, ringed with black.
Special Markings (tattoos, scars, etc): A birthmark in the shape of a spade on his back. It shows up in his animal form as well.
More In-depth~
History: When Neko was a small boy, around age six or so, his parents quickly found out about his developing shapeshifting powers when Neko tried to impress them by transforming. Horrified, his parents wanted to desperately get rid of their son without anyone noticing. Being greedy, they sold him to a nearby circus in exchange for much money. Neko lived in the dirty, very old circus for around four years before escaping, and being on the run, chased by the hunters and ringmasters of the circus. Neko continues to live an outlaw, according to his town, and his whereabouts by hunters are currently unknown.
Personality: Neko is rather tricky and cunning around hunters. He uses pretty much every plan possible to escape society whenever it seems a sign of them might know his whereabouts. Around others, he will be hard to gain the trust of, and will flee at any given time. If befriended, by showing loyalty to him, he will stay true, loyal, and will try and protect that person, no matter how dire any situation might be. However, Neko can be a little naive at times, especially around his friends.
Strengths: Escaping from chases with ease and being loyal to friends.
Weaknesses: Temptation, being naive.
Greatest Fear: Torture
Greatest Desire: To be accepted by society.
Family: The names of his parents are Jade and Lance Valenz, though Neko has not spoken to them for many years. His suspicions are that they have turned into hunters, though there is no evidence.
Other: I'm working with an IPad here. I'll make my forms prettier when I get to a laptop C:
