There's more to the music of this world then meets the eye... or ear, rather. All truly successful musicians have one thing in common: sonomancy. The magic of song. They can infuse their songs with magic, and the effects can be subtle or glaringly obvious. Well, obvious to other sonomancers.

Who am I? My name is Kara, and I'm a sonomancer. I'm also the founder of the Academy for the Musically Gifted, a school for sonomancers to learn to use their gifts and learn how to hide them from normal humans. Not everyone is tolerant of magic. Just look at what happened to the shifters. The humans found out about them, and now they're all gone; retreated so deep into an animal form that they've forgotten how to shift. We have no such escape.

It's my job to ensure that young sonomancers survive in this magic-hating world. Graduates of the AMG are confident and ready to take on the world and make their mark. Every one of them goes on to be a famous musician, some more so than others. Each and every one of them are brilliant, and I couldn't be prouder.

The above is taken from an article published in secret by Headmistress Nightingale of the Academy for the Musically Gifted.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Congratulations, you have been accepted into the Academy for the Musically Gifted! Here are a few things you need to know before you arrive:

Orientation is two days before the official start of school, to give new students a chance to explore the campus and get to know their teachers.
Students are expected to live in on-campus dorms, which can be furnished however the student likes. Due to the number of students enrolled, students will have to share dorms. We apologize for any inconvenience.
Uniforms are not required; however, we do require that students dress modestly. This is for the benefit of your fellow students, as well as your teachers.
Enclosed with this letter you will find your dorm assignment and a packet of teacher information. This packet includes names, photos, and contact information, as well as a few details about the teachers.

We hope to see you at orientation, on August the 10th!
Sincerely,
Dr. Phillip Smith, Choir Director and organist.

Name:
Decker White

Age:
20

Gender:
Male

Appearance:
Decker stands at 6'2 and could be considered intimidating if he had bulging muscles and a scowl that curdles milk. Fortunately he has neither and instead has slim, wiry muscles built up from a focus on personal health rather than bulk and it would be difficult not to see him without a genuine smile on his face. Decker's choice of attire are simple things like graphic tees and worn out jeans, however it isn't unheard of for him to wear the school uniform in a unorganized mess.

Specialization:
Combat

Background:
Decker's parents had a very hands off approach to raising him, something that lead to many ups and just as many downs. However the past is what it is and in the end, Decker turned out all right. Growing up in a rock household did much in forming his tastes, Dio AC/DC, Black Sabbath, Motley Crüe, Black Label Society, and Iron Maiden just to scratch the surface. As a child of rock and sonomancers the guitar came easily to Decker, the energy of it just completing a part of him that he had never look to complete. Feeding this passion was his idol, Jeffrey Wielandt A.K.A. Zakk Wylde. As Decker grew and learned he was eventually invited to AMG and has been a student for several years now, picking up not only the acoustic guitar but also the drums and the didgeridoo after spending some time in Australia.

Other:
Decker is deeply spiritual, beliving that people must walk their own path to find any semblance of peace in this crazy, chaotic world.

Name: Aoki Akira
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Appearance:
Specialization: Healing
Background: Aoki always had a taste for fast music since he was young, apparently because she was exposed to such music from their parents, mostly unintentional in their defense. The taste wasn't blatant until he was around 13.
However, his ability subtly manifested itself when he was 12, as was recovering from minor bone fractures which didn't take a long time to recover, he could feel the other's pain, slowly depressing himself as he sensed the suffering of others, trying to think of something to do for them but eventually giving up, as he believed miracles doesn't exist.
However, his definition of "miracle" got changed after a year, when he was told a slightly wounded friend of his recovered unnaturally quickly while the friend was listening to Aoki playing a song, which made the player apply the word "miracle" to the situation, with the "miracles" happening when he was playing songs. Although he could sense his songs and the "miracles" might be related to each other, he did not know how it did until he got a letter, apparently from "the Academy for the Musically Gifted". He initially dismissed the letters as a prank, but the letters kept coming in, with each letters attempting to prove it isn't a joke. Soon, he gave in, with his parents agreeing soon after their child did.
Others:
  • Source of his appearance: mtrl.tokyo/column/1617
  • He apparently doesn't like it when someone requests a slow-paced song, although the definition can be flexible depending on how he is feeling.
  • Somewhat surprisingly, he is stereotypically calm, attempting to help others within his limits once he thinks it is definitely possible.

By the way, if anyone wants to claim the Combat teacher, I can change his name and gender to suit.

Also, a bit of info about the teachers. There are teachers for each of the most well-known specializations, and teachers for information that's common to all specializations. Benedict, my character, teaches beginning Influence sonomancy; there are also teachers for intermediate, expert, and advanced difficulties in all well-known specializations.

(Bit of misc. info, Janet just graduated from intermediate into expert Combat sonomancy, and can only occasionally create music without something to channel it through.)

SPECIALIZATION
Calming
BACKGROUND
Naito grew up in a peaceful town, with her little brother and her parents. Her little brother (Hizachi) is three years younger than her. She started taking violin lessons when she was six. When she was seven, she started playing her violin to calm her little brother to sleep. Three years later, she realized that her music could actually calm him. Her brother would have anxiety attacks whenever their parents were yelling at each other. Her parents yelled at each other so constantly, and Naito was playing her violin almost 24/7 for her brother. She began to teach him the language of music, and one day he told her that she could feel how angry their parents were when they were fighting, and how sad she was when she heard them.
Five years later, their parents got a divorce. It got even worse when a three weeks after the divorce, their mother was killed in a fire at work. Hizachi told Naito about the feelings that were radiating off of their father. He sat near the window, looking out at the flower garden that their mother had always tended to.
Naito found out a year later about the academy, and she and her brother fled to the school.
OTHER
SEXUALITY
Bisexual
GENDER
She's genderfluid.

She plays mostly electronic violin, but she plays classic violin to sooth her brother.
