Welcome to Redhart Academy
We accept students aged 18 - 24. We provide education of all types from Historical studies to Technological Ventures.
While our academy is very exclusive and, at times, expensive, we also offer grants, financial aid and even scholarships to the right candidate.
Also, for a select few pupils, we teach you how to use magic.
We house students 2 to a dorm and allow for mixed gender bunkings if certain circumstances and agreements are met. We have a wide array of shops and venues around the campus area to keep you entertained, fed, clothed and healthy. There are several clubs and associations with their own specific housing quarters, but one must be a member to enjoy those benefits.
Most students can enjoy a casual atmosphere with a high social lifestyle with their fellow academic comrades with very little to worry about.
Except monsters. And witches. And creatures of a various sort that feed upon or simply hate humanity as a whole.
You're a new student. You don't know many people here. You're also cursed.
So far so good? GOOOOOD!!
This RP is going to be Neapolitan. You've got some Slice Of Life, you've got some Fantasy elements, and you've got a bit of Horror. Delicious! You've just been admitted to this strange academy rich with secrets and secret societies to boot. The more your venture in, the more the world of Redhart unravels.
There is a catch, though. You're not going to apply with stats to see if you're worthy of making an opening post. You're going to make your opening post now. As I mentioned, you are already cursed. You've heard of Werewolves. Some human takes of the malicious spirit of a wolf and it ultimately turned into a monster, usually by the light of a full moon.
Well, the curse is similar, but the effects are different.
Everyone has a spirit animal. Some seem more intimidating than others, but all spirit animals stand for something. Your character has recently been rapaciously bonded with that animal and will soon find what that bond truly means for them. Maybe your spirit animal is a turtle, wise and defensive. Once bonded, you find yourself strutting around like a teenage ninja of a particular pursuasion.
Maybe your the broody night time type that hangs out in coffee shops talking about how abysmal life it. Maybe your spirit animal is a bat.
The point is that you were cursed (or blessed) with the bonding of you to your animal spirit and this bond has made you far more powerful than anyone could have anticipated. You heal faster, your senses are stronger and more acute, and you enjoy some of your animal spirits' more biological advantages as well (flight, durability, speed, agility, etc). There will be phases in this game with primary goals to meet. Your first goal will be to tell us how you got cursed, what your spirit animal is, and finding a way to meet up with your brethren who were cursed the same way.
And once we have all of our pieces in place, the real game begins. You will find yourself standing across from demons, witches, warlocks, monsters, the living dead, and more.
Right now, before we get into too much detail, I just want to make sure there is interest in this sort of thing. I will be providing you with starting conditions and within your application, you're going to tell us about your character and also make you first post about the night your character became afflicted. If this goes well, we will make it into a series of RPs and perhaps even do a crossover saga with one of my other RP brands.
If you're into the idea, I'll flesh it out and put the real work in to make this look polished and badass. Let me know!
**There will be no reservations for who gets what animal bond. If we end up with 2 werewolves, we end up with 2 werewolves. I have faith in our writing abilities that we can still make it interesting. And if two people choose the same animal, that does not necessarily mean that they have the same perks.**
I will also be looking for 2 GMs and, once we have a core group, a discord server will be made. PM me if you want to GM and let me know why you would be a good candidate to do so.
