Name: James Hunter Picture/Description:  (ignore the ax) Age: 17 Nationality: American Weapon of Choice (Must be a bladed weapon):  Magic Specialization (physical enhancement, Avatar Summoning, Elemental Control, etc. Must be related to Weapon of Choice): Elemental Control Bio: James, from the day he could first wield a blade, has trained as often as he could with his dual blade so that he could be skilled enough to get into the academy. Other than that, there's really nothing exciting about his life, other than the fact that his family's house was in the woods, so he would even go out and hunt using his blades. Other: his double blade can split into two separate weapons, and there is an extremely flexible, specially made thread hidden inside that connects the two weapons so as long as he holds one the other will return to him. Also, his blades have release buttons in case he wants to release the thread so he can just use a twin blade style.

Name: Nathan Grant Picture/Description: [Hyperlink] (http://s819.photobucket.com/user/wolf_demon_kazumi/media/93423.jpg.html) Age: 16 Nationality: British Weapon of Choice (Must be a bladed weapon): [Hyperlink!] (http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2012/142/f/c/thunderbolts_by_raverunner-d50pe32.jpg) Magic Specialization (physical enhancement, Avatar Summoning, Elemental Control, etc. Must be related to Weapon of Choice): Darkness Imbue. Bio: A normal boy most his life, Nathan would move around town doing the general chore for his family, getting Straight A's in school and doing pretty well in those War ridden times, he would shrug off any threats and be an all out generally friendly kid. But, on the last semester of his 10th Grade school life, He finally decided he would bring someone the pain after they decided to bully a poor defenseless kid, And, he sure did pummel them, He was a rather social kid before that incident, but ever after it he went into a quiet, reserved state of mind. After getting in a few scuffles and things he was placed on probation, which didn't sit well with him, they beat him down and submitted him to a strange academy, no walls, no body guards, but it was an academy. He was given two blades and told that "You are now apart of a special project, These are your tools. Please wait further instruction. You will find your room upstairs and the third door on your right." And he is now here..

Name: Yasuri Uneri Age: 18 Nationality: American Appearance: [Image](http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2014/292/6/6/samurai_by_yaichino-d4cvljw.jpg) Personality: Hardworking and Tenacious to a fault.

**Name**: Johann Strauss **Picture/Description**: A tall boy with long gangly limbs and shot, curly blond hair and green eyes. His uniform is crisp, clean, and obviously well cared for. **Age**: 16 **Nationality**: English ** Weapon of Choice**: Main Gauche. **Magic Specialization**: Sound Manipulation, most notable a family ability to control the "Volume" of anything they cut. Particularly sharp swings of the weapon are able to unleash bullets and waves of ear-splitting sound, or quite an entire area. But none of that matters, because Johann has discovered that if you flick the weapon just right you can make music with it. **Bio**: Any discussion of Johann must first begin with his family, who went into service in WWI as spies, assassins, and infiltrators for the emperor of their native Austria upon the discovery of their ability. The family took great pride in serving the emperor, and were shaken when the empire broke apart at the end of WWI. During WWII, like many Austrian monarchists who opposed the Nazi regime, they joined the exile community in London where they were contacted by British secret service and stabbed Nazis until the end of the war. As the war came to an end, the family split in two. Some member wanted to return and rebuild in Austria while others had found love, happiness, and prosperity in England. The two groups parted ways amicably, the Austrian half settling down out of the cloak and dagger game while the British half was repeatedly tapped by MI6 during the Cold War and still enjoys a good relationship with them to this day. Enter Johann, born to the British side of the family, and expected to go into the "Family Business." Drilled from a young age in both espionage and his Blade _Impulse Phenomena_ he was found to be a solid block of wood in the former and a downright prodigy in the latter, good enough to get him into a very prestigious academy despite his lackadaisical attitude. **Other**: He carries another weapon for the purposes of dueling even though he rarely if ever does so, a rapier, because his main weapon is one typically used in the off hand.

Name: *Michael Reese.*  Age: *16.* Nationality: *American.* Weapon of Choice (Must be a bladed weapon): *Spear*: (Included in above-not my own design sadly though) Magic Specialization (physical enhancement, Avatar Summoning, Elemental Control, etc. Must be related to Weapon of Choice): *Physical Enchancement - Speed/Agility Boost.* Michael is significantly faster than most people, and his spearmanship has greatly benifited from this. (Like the Lancer Class basically xD). Bio: Michael is a fairly normal teen, having lived his life without personally engaging in any fights. A moderately likable guy, he still likes to tease those he can or annoy them to death (Figurative, if it were Literally, he would run out of people to annoy). After he picked up a spear for the first time, he realized that he generally liked the feel of the weapon more than any sword, an thus, chose to major in spearmanship. He later found his magic specialization to be that of an overall agility and/or speed boost, allowing him to be even more dangerous in any fight. Holding back isn't a philosophy of his, and rarely does, with the exception of jus stopping short of a killing blow. While lazy overall, he is considered by many to be "smart" due to his book smarts, testing ability, and his very funky memory. While only a Rank 1, he really doesn't have much in the way of an ambitious drive, and as such has never tried to go out and gain a position or power, but when it comes to rankings, he has started to think of maybe actually trying for once. He enjoys his trench coat very much, and loves his spear almost as much as his coat. Other: None at the moment.

Name:Harry Blackstone Picture: Age:17 Nationality:United States Weapon of Choice (Must be a bladed weapon): Magic Specialization (physical enhancement, Avatar Summoning, Elemental Control, etc. Must be related to Weapon of Choice):elemental control Bio:Harry is kind caring and chivalrous. He wants to protect his friends and he loves meeting new people. He was raised in a semiwealthy family so he didnt have to worry about being hungry. Once he was old enough for highschool his family wanted to send him to the best school in the world so a Harry went to the school with the best known blade master. Other:One blade for each arm

Name: Leo Vuorenmaa Picture/Description: Leo is towering Nordic man, standing 6'5 feet tall with his well built body. His skin is tanned and rough, especially around his hands due lifting and carrying things around and generally working on a farm. There really is nothing too special about him appearance wise. He has rough facial features, brown eyes, brown eyebrow sand brown hair that barely reaches his ears and flows freely, he has short, unkept beard that he shaves and cleans every now and then, but mostly is seems quite raggy. He usually wears leather boots, brown pants and white short sleeved shirt Age: 19 Nationality: Finnish Weapon of Choice: Heavy Woodcutter's Axe Magic Specialization: Can utilize the power of Earth during combat and other times, focuses his power on defense and healing. Bio: Leo was born on a farm, grew on a farm, and worked on a farm with his family for his whole childhood and teen ages all the way to his adulthood, he was schooled only to very basics of reading and math, he can count to 35(that was the size of the cow-herd in their farm) and can write his name correctly and read simple things. He noticed his magical abilities by complete accident while chopping wood in their forest to sell off as logs, he was chopping down a large tree that turned out to be hollow from the middle, he cut right through it and fell over, only to notice that the whole thing was coming down on him, even if hollow, it would've been heavy weight to fall. He closed his eyes and cured under his breath and waited for the impact, but it never came, as he looked up he saw that the tree was held up by pillars of dirt . Upon returning home he was filled with confusion, it was something he couldn't comprehend at all. Few years later he then signed up to the academy dedicated on training people to use those abilities. He was called in a hearing because usually people that join in were younger than him. Either way, without him really even knowing how, he was accepted after his father had some form of conversation with the deciding factors. Other: He's quite often caught spewing out words that seem to be complete nonsense to others, but it's just him probably cursing in his national language.. He has managed to learn his fair share of English in relatively short time, but usually he needs a help from a dictionary he carries around, a gift from his mother. And even then, it might be difficult to understand him, thus he might need to repeat himself louder than the first time.

Name: Janos Kalpa Picture/Description: Janos is quite a short fellow, standing at 5'2. His shoulders aren't very wide and there is just something very nonthreathening about him. Janos' black hair is tied to a short ponytail to keep it off from his eyes. His eyes are a pale shade of green. Janos has a very effeminate face and sometimes his actual gender has been a point of confusion to some. Age: 19 Nationality: Finnish Weapon of Choice: two straight bladed combat knives with black handles and blade lenght of 8 inches. Magic Specialization: Avatar Summoning: Flowing Knives. Janos' avatar takes the form of bracers that have two small blades extending barely past his knuckles. The Flowing Knives creates as it's name would suggest an amount of throwing knives - currently 12 is the maximum number Janos can concentrate with and fight effectively - the knives follow the summoner's hand movements and with little wrist movements they can be thrown with much more force and accuracy than what would be possible without the use of the avatar. Bio: With the family name Kalpa - roughly translating to épee, or sword - you would think that you are somehow destined to be a swordsman of at the very least some caliber. Janos somehow became exactly that. At the age of 16 Janos joined the academy to further his skills even more and did his best to learn controlling his avatar. At 18 he left the academy for the mandatory year in the Finnish Defense Forces - attaining the rank of Alikersantti, or Corporal. He's returned to the academy to meet old faces, new faces and to as he would put it himself 'finish his learning'. Other: Janos has a bit of a short temper, especially with the younger students. He's admittedly a bit of a nerd.

Here's the repost from OOC Name: Eriella Garza Picture/Description:  Age: 15 Nationality: Irish (Grown up in China) Weapon of Choice (Must be a bladed weapon): [Knives](http://www.karatemart.com/images/products/large/dragon-hunter-throwing-knives.jpg) Magic Specialization (physical enhancement, Avatar Summoning, Elemental Control, etc. Must be related to Weapon of Choice): [Dragon(Zorralth)](http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2011/166/8/a/1308160523_dragon_by_o_eternal_o-d269myp.jpg) Creature(Dragon) Summoning Bio: She was grown up in a village that worshipped a dragon called Zorralth, who gave life to her village and all of the land. The story was that Zorralth was in a war with the dragon of death Darlath, however Zorralth defeated him and gave life to the plain. She is very sweet, and very rarely gets sad and/or angry. And sometimes, she would just give no emotion. In combat that is where she gets weak, and she uses her daggers to summon the dragon Zorralth. She cares about Zorralth very much, and would even risk her own life for a spirit. By herself she can be very weak, but she is very quick in her movements. Other: Zorralf can breathe out fire as one of his attacks in combat. She doesn’t have much combat training, but has trained for about 1 year. She dates boys and/or girls. Rorralth can talk, he sounds like a mature male, and he guides Eriella on the path of wisdom (I know it’s lame). She's from the country, and doesn't know much about the technology itself.
