You stand on a concrete driveway, staring up at a huge building. You have a bag on your shoulders. You're nervous about going inside. But you're also excited!
You almost leap out of your skin when a hand softly lands on your shoulder. You look around to see a taller woman. Her expression is amused as she notices your confused look.
"Welcome to the Academy. Here is where you can be yourself without worrying about teasing or bullying. I hope you enjoy it here. Oh, you better go get checked in before it's too late! I'm Principle Eiro [ee-rr-oh], by the way." The woman smiles kindly and walks ahead of you, through a path in the circular garden that adorned the front of the mansion looking school.
You square your shoulders and put on a determined expression, following the principle inside of the building. Here is where you'll get checked in and your dorm assigned. You hope you end up with someone decent, if their dorms are shared. The school didn't have a website, your parents had only found out about it through a brochure or flier or something. But they had told you that this was the place to be treated equally, no matter your talents. They had said that here everyone's talents are brought to the light.
These thoughts excited you. You know your parents had said so much more about the school, but you didn't need more. You were already wanting to get into the school as soon as possible.

Image

Here's the gist of what's going on, incase anyone needs a more indepth explanation:
- You're a new/old student
- This is a mutant/wizard/witch/etc school.
- There are a total of four slots for regular humans; more will be explain later
- You can share a dorm or have your own. Due to the school being a very large campus, there is a lot of room for students and rooms.

G&T Academy layout:
The school looks like a huge mansion. When you walk in, there's a large room that would be the foyer. At the back of the foyer is a grand staircase that leads in two directions. A large window adorns the wall above the staircase. It gives a nice view of the pool that is used for swimming practice (And used for teaching water elementals). The staircase leading up on the left leads to the wing of dorms. There are two floors, long hallways, with decent sized rooms that have their own bathrooms, dressers, beds, mirrors, etc. (You are allowed to decorate your room as you please, as well as the outside of your door). The staircase leading to the right of the foyer leads to several large classrooms. Up here is Chemistry, History (American, World, Western, etc. Each type have their own classroom), biology, science (General, like periodic table, elements, motion, etc), and Mathematics (Algebra I, Algebra II, Geometry, Calculus I, Calculus II, each level has its own dedicated classroom). Back down into the foyer. Hanging high above the red rug that adorns the polished wooden floor is a chandelier (Image it as you will). To the right, before the staircase, another hall leads for several yards before a sharp turn that follows the flow of the building (Which is a U shape; this hall is also right under the hall that the right side of the staircase leads to). In this hallway are several more classes (English, literature, language arts, Creative writing, Journalism; Different classroom for each area), Offices (Guidance councilor, Principle, Assistant principle, nurse/s, teachers' lounge). There is also a door in this wing leading to the outside where the pool is. But first, back to the foyer. The hall to the left, opposite the right hall, is a small flight of stairs that makes a turn and leads into the gym room. A few gym rooms, actually. All the same size, but with different things within. The first gym is used for PE class, for those who want to take PE. The second gym is used for Weight Training, with a section within for weights and a whole area for running (There is also a track outside to the left of the building. This gym is on the far side closest to it with doors directly inside the gym leading to the track. The hall used to get to these gyms also has a door at the end of it to get to this track.). In the third gym is general exercise and play, with basketball hoops in the gym along with several other things. This is not a class and is generally used as an on-campus hangout space. Back to the foyer, down the right hall and out to the space between the hallways where the pool sits. The pool is a clearwater pool, with a good filter. There are chemicals in the water to keep it clean, namely chlorine (So try not to open your eyes too much under water! Goggles are provided for those who ask.). The pool is used for several different things. When there are no classes present, students are free to swim as they please, so long as a lifeguard is on duty. When there are classes, the pool is often used for swim practice, or water elementals learning to control their power. Behind the academy building is a large lake, which many students go down there for fishing or just to enjoy it. It is unadvised to swim in this lake, as there is a complete dropoff a few feet from the shore, unless you are an excellent swimmer (Ask one of the on duty pool staff to test your swimming ability if you haven't done so already.). Back, once again, to the foyer of the building, and up to the left where the dorms are, right at the top of the staircase, the first door is a double door with a window. Within these doors is a large library with thousands of books, and at least one new book every week. Inside the library are multiple floors. Several book shelves line the walls of the large room, as well as in rows. Above these shelves on the floor are walkways, guarded with white railings. Atop these walkways along the walls are more shelves, to house the many books the school acquires weekly. Also within this library are areas for reading, such as couches and tables with chairs. There's also a computer area, mainly used for research, but also often used for students with free time who want to play computer games.

More may be added to this as I think of more to put on the campus.

Try to keep species even as well. I don't want a ton of one type and like one or two of another.
You do not need to reserve a character. Spots are not limited. If I feel there are too many people, I will stop accepting
Any type of romance is welcome so long as it's kept appropriate enough for a young kid to read.
Your character CAN have pets (two maximum, however) that can be any species (Let's not have a bunch of dragons, though. A few are fine), however if they start to disrupt class, distracting you or students around you, you will be asked by staff to leave your pet in your room while you are in class.
Last of all, HAVE FUN! Let's not turn this RP into a big fight! And let's try not to let it die either!
Keep looking back here from time to time, I might add more if I find it necessary.

Finally! For the explanation you've been waiting for. Humans are welcome into this RP, HOWEVER ONLY FOUR ARE ALLOWED. You must pm me in order to get one. Humans came into the school under the belief that 'Gifted & Talented' was purely for advanced knowledge, like past honor roll and such. The humans have no idea that this school is actually full of students with powers far beyond what they imagine. So, if you get a human, they don't understand yet what the school is full of! All humans are new students!
The offered form can be used for both human and powered character.
You can make your own form so long as it includes most of the aspects of the provided one.

[ Username;; ]
Galaxystar
[ Character looks;; ]
Here
[ Character name;; ]
Zalean (Zale) Carter
[ Gender;; ]
Male
[ Type;; ]
Mutant
[ Abilities/Powers;; ]
He has the ability of teleportation. He can teleport within a 5 mile radius and can't go into anywhere without knowing if there's any obstruction. Physical disruption after materializing would kill him instantly.
He also has semi-excessive healing. (ei. An injury that would normally take several weeks to heal would take him like a few days to a week to heal, or an injury that would take several hours might take him a few minutes to an hour.)
[ Sexual Orientation;; ]
Bisexual
[ Personality;; ]
Zale is a pretty laid back guy, except when someone's screaming demon. He's street smart, thinks before he acts. He's careful, sometimes too careful.
After several years of meeting various people only for them to scream demon, he's not overly enthusiastic about meeting new
[ Kinships/Family;; ]
He doesn't know any of them, however I knows he had an aunt he lived with for five years before running off
[ History;; ]
He lived out on the streets shortly after he turned five, having run away from his home. There's only a few reasons he was never caught by police or the like.
[ Crush;; ]
Open
[ Pets?;; ]
None
[ Weaknesses;; ]
Can't teleport anywhere unless he knows where he's going. Materializing into a wall or other person would kill him instantly, regeneration or not
He takes failure very badly, which often 'causes him to oppress himself
It can be hard for him to make friends as he takes trust very seriously
[ Strengths;; ]
His abilities, of course
Natural leader in dire situations
[ Other;; ]


Image

[ Username;; ]
Galaxystar
[ Character looks;; ]
Here
[ Character name;; ]
Marrow Tayio
[ Gender;; ]
Male
[ Type;; ]
Corrupted Angel
[ Abilities/Powers;; ]
Marrow has thousands of magical abilities. He can do near anything with his magic, but it has a limit. If he does something too much for his heightened strength, he'll collapse and fall unconscious into an almost coma like state.
He also, like every angel in his former Clan, is able to turn his wings into a tattoo that rests on his back. *It looks like this*. When this tattoo alone is viewed by other angels, they believe he has the white wings of his Clan, because of it's general shape. The tail is also hidden when he hides his wings into a tattoo. This hiding ability does cost energy, but not very much.
[ Sexual Orientation;; ]
Straight, not interested
[ Personality;; ]
Ever since his early teens, he's been the face of neutral evil. He'll cause trouble just because he can and just for his amusement. He likes when others take amusement in it, but he does't do it just for others to laugh. He has a dark sense of humor. He's also a huge reader, preferring fiction over nonfiction and fantasy over most other subjects.
[ Kinships/Family;; ]
Doesn't remember anyone from his Clan. Doesn't even know what the Clan was called.
[ History;; ]
Marrow began as a pure angel, born with the mark of the angel that most Angels within his Clan are born with. (In his Clan, being born with this mark on your shoulder blades marks you as an Angel. Angels born without were considered deformed angels and were at the bottom of the Clan's ranks.) He started with the name Ki (pronounced like key). Like any steriotypical angel, he was kind, loyal, helpful, and wanted nothing more than to help everyone. This was so up until his 14th birthday, where he was approached by a strange man who had his wings hidden in a tattoo (As many angels would do this in his tribe so as not to knock things over, but it was never for very long). The man offered a cupped hand to the boy that was at the time Ki. The man opened his hand to a skeptical Ki and dark tendrils of magic whipped toward Ki, wrapping him in the dark magic. (This was away from other Angels, just so you know.) The man was laughing as the dark magic slashed the Mark of the Angel on his back leaving three lined claw marks over each. A new mark was produced on the boy. The Mark of Kor, an evil beast of legends, was burned into the center of his back, in between the slashed Angel marks. As the boy, no longer Ki, was released and dropped the ground, he was told his name was now Marrow. The boy remembered nothing before the moment that mark was burned onto him, except that he'd been born an Angel. The boy's wings were no longer large white feathery wings. Instead he had dragon wings. His eyes, that had once been a warm golden brown, were now an ice blue. His ears were pointy now. He still had his tail, the same kind of tail every angel in his former Clan had. A long prehensile tail with four feathers on the end used to help in steering while flying. Except, now the tail was a similar blue that his wings now were. The man who'd done this told the boy his name was now Marrow Tayio. (tay-yo). Marrow went with the man to a new dimension where he learned many things and was released several years later after his training finished. Marrow's skin, which had remained light and full of life at first transformation, had become a deathly pale color over his many years of training in this dimension.
He'd actually left them, wishing to just traverse the world and do his own thing. He joined the school only so he could cause small bits of trouble. And also because it held others of abilities like his. Though he believes his abilities are superior, since he was born an angel.
[ Crush;; ]
Strictly uninterested
[ Pets?;; ]
None
[ Weaknesses;; ]
Corrupted Angel, which means he often has nightmares in his sleep. Only thing that wards them off, mostly, is the dreamcatcher he keeps in his pocket.
His powers can take a toll on him if he uses them too much without resting
[ Strengths;; ]
Strong (Sometimes uncontrollable) magic that can do almost anything
Not easily swayed
[ Other;; ]

Postby emango23 » Fri Jan 08, 2016 12:55 pm

[ Username;; ]

Emango23

[ Character looks;; ]

reference image: xXx

She is about 5'8, with short, choppy hair and grey eyes, relatively pale skin and a lithe, boyish body.

[ Character name;; ]

Jasmine Mahoney, though you better call her Jazz

[ Gender;; ]

Female

[ Age ]

17

[ Type;; ]

Metal elemental

[ Abilities/Powers;; ]

although she is generally human to the touch, she can harden and shape parts of her body at will for short periods of time. She can also 'melt' her body, removing pieces of herself to create metal objects, may it be weaponry or projectiles or any solid object that may be needed at the time. She has minor magnetic ability, able to lift and control iron objects like telekinesis, though this is very taxing on her and drains her quickly.

[ Sexual Orientation;; ]

Bisexual

[ Personality;; ]

She is generally more reserved, not a complete outsider though friends come and go with ease, and she only has a couple that have really lasted over the past few years. She's sharp witted and tongued, and is not afraid to speak her mind on matters that she cares about, and is generally social and daring in conversation. She's cunning though lacks ambition, and gets mediocre grades at school.

[ Kinships/Family;; ]

The usual set up, mother and father, a younger sister who's the pride and joy of the two siblings with her golden elemental form

[ History;; ]

Nothing too grand, her family is made mostly of metal or rock elementals, with the occasional human on either side, with varying types of elements for each person (e.g her father is onyx, her mother is silver). She herself is iron, and her sister was gold. Her name was Melody and she was the favorite of the two sisters, kind and talented and intelligent, often envied but still loved by her sister. She died about three years ago in a plane crash, and since then Jazz had drifted apart from her mourning family, often bitter and angry at the world for the first two years. She ran away from home a couple of times, as well as got into fights at school for the fun of it. With the third year of this sort of disposition nearing, her parents decided that she needed a change of pace and sent her to the Academy, where she has been since the beginning of the year.

[ Crush;; ]

Open

[ Pets?;; ]

A pet rock named Sax

[ Weaknesses;; ]

She can't swim, she sinks like a rock, and she's very afraid of airplanes and flying

[ Strengths;; ]

She's very strong and enjoys running, as well as fighting if the opportunity arises, though she has lost the habit of picking fights

[ Other;; ]

she dresses in a lot of leather and distressed clothing, and considers boots the alpha shoe.
