[Aisling]

Fine! You can always add her pic later if you want to.

I am sorry to call you a he when you are a she but since I was not sure of your gender I went with the he.
I will listen to you and will adjust what I see needs to be adjusted.

[Aisling]

Also students, you enter this world by touching the picture. The picture will transport you from Earth to Caldwell's.

[Aphelion]

Here's my character. Sorry it took so long, I was busy today. :/ I will post tomorrow though, if I'm accepted! ^^ *off to bed with me*

River Cade

Name: River Cade
Age: 15
Gender: Female
Academy: Basic (Magical)

Personality:
River is a spunky, irrefutably cheerful girl. Not much gets her down, but she does have a strong sense of justice. When she sees wrong-doings, she becomes angry and subsequently tries to fix them with all of her might. She enjoys playing innocent pranks on people, but loves playing them on her friends. Her idea of a good time is running around outside, in the sun, with all of her friends.

Appearance:
Her hair is a spiced pumpkin in color with streaks of platinum blonde through it, short and untameable, with a singular long tress trailing down to her calves. Her eyes, slightly slanted in her heart-shaped face, are the color of a fresh spring leaf. She has a button nose and small lips, which are usually grinning. Her body build is lean and muscled, and her skin is tan from being outdoors for most of her life.

Bio:
River is the adopted child of Hayden and Mikael Cade. Her fathers were very outdoorsy fellows, encouraging River to soak in the fresh air rather than to be cooped up. They saw her latent magical abilities come out as she grew up, often accidentally making plants grow at an alarming rate, or falling out of a tree to miraculously hover above the ground uninjured.

Her magical mishaps became more frequent as she got older, forcing her fathers to find people who could help their daughter with her “little issue”. That was how they enrolled her into Cadwell's.

More to come as we progress.

Habits:
-She has a voracious appetite, eating anything edible around her.
-She will frequently nap outdoors, in the grass or up a tree most often.
-"Dovie'andi se tovya sagain", which means "It's time to toss the dice", is her catchphrase. She will often say it before she takes on a challenge, such as tests.

[Aisling]

River is accepted and you may post.

[hawaiian]

Aisling the picture isnt working for me it just takes me to a photobucket page

[Aisling]

Which picture are you talking about?

[Aisling]

If it is the one in the first post, it the same as the one in my signature, only bigger.

[thanatosDefiant]

Excuse me, are you still accepting?

Aloyious Pippins

Name: Aloyious Pippins
Age: 15
Gender: Male

Personality: He is a very self conscious young man who is constantly in doubt of his own abilities and worth, unable to find a subject that he is truly talented in. He tends to joke around quite a bit, and will occasionally make somewhat sarcastic remarks in a playful manner. However, he will also do this in order to openly show his disdain for something or someone, typically in regards to things that he hates. He is also very prone to worrying about anybody he considers a friend, and will consistently attempt to look out for their well-being and will typically do this in a manner that it somewhat annoying because of the fact that, he tends to worry a bit too much, to the point where it seems as if he does not trust the person he is advising to take care of him or herself. Aloyious is also very willing to stand up for his ideals, and can also be very courageous if given the correct set of circumstances.

Picture or a good description: Aloyious is a somewhat plump young man with somewhat chubby cheeks, and also has short somewhat tame black hair with somewhat small bangs that go quite a bit above his eyebrow. He is not all that tall, but not very short either, instead he is actually somewhat average for his age in this regard and is only about 5'8 feet in height. He has light brown eyes and also has olive skin.

Which Academy preferred- Basic or Draconic: Basic

Bio: Aloyious grew up as the son to a pair of store owners who specialized in selling items for practical jokes and also in manufacturing them as well. Because of this, they tended to try them out on Aloyious and use him as a type of guinea pig, who was used to test the effectiveness of these items, he has gotten very used to this treatment and is generally very eager to help them with their tests. With time, he developed a very avid interest in magic, because of all the potential that he sees for it, and also because he believes that it will be a pleasure to use in general, causing him to apply for the academy. He does not really have any talent for magic, but is very enthusiastic to learn the ins and outs of it.

[Aphelion]

Sorry for my longish post.

The TL;DR version is that River's fathers are sad that she is leaving, and she is too excited and young to realize their feelings. She arrived at Cadwell's during the last paragraph if you would like to read just that :3

Do the students of the Magical side of the Academy get a familiar?

I'd also like to know if you are still accepting. My charter is still in the works, but if you would like a basic Idea I will explain a bit.

She would be a draconic student. She's a very lost girl who partly believes that she wasn't meant to be human. Her entire life is based around trying to find out what she was really meant to be, or how to fix the feeling she has in her heart. A feeling that is quite hard to describe. It is maybe two parts loneliness and one part loathing. She has a knack for at least one thing though. Making friends. Sometimes she thinks thats her only talent.

[blaider]

Blue moon I would love to see this character please complete the CS for me, and Aphelion I loved your post was not TLDR for me

[bluemoon277]

(decided to change picture because she looked two old. She might look like that when she's..I don't know…20..19)
Name:
Mrytle Spade
Age:
15
Gender:
Female
Personality:
Mrytle often finds herself in her own world. She stares off into the distance, and creates scenarios of what she really is. Mrytle likes to believe that she was born into the wrong species. Something about being human just seems to small. At least thats how she would explain it. In reality her longing for a different species is really just her longing for an explanation for why she feels like she's doing everything wrong. Even when she is being praised for a job well done the words don't seem right to her. In her heart something tells her that she is wrong. Mrytle is very friendly even still. People often gravitate towards her. Mrytle loves this and cannot get enough friends. A good reason why this might be is because myrtle doesn't judge people. She accepts any and all. it doesn't matter how they dress act or talk she doesn't mind.
Basic or Draconic:
Draconic
Type of Dragon preferred:
(Not actual size. Much smaller xD)

Bio:
Mrytle was born into a very rich family as an only child. Growing up her parents indulged anything Mrytle wanted to pursue. This made her a bit of a Jack of all trades. At home Mrytle used to feel completely happy, but when she left for school that changed. The other kids didn't like the way Mrytle dyed her hair. They didn't like her name. They thought the costumes she dressed up in everyday were silly. Mrtyle didn't know what to do the bullying was relentless. Thankfully in middle school she met a small group of people who didn't quite get her, but thought she was the greatest. They said that her ability to be who she is was inspirational. Mrytle bloomed into the social butterfly that she is today during those years.

Though there were still very bad days. One of the worst was May 13. Mrytle had come home tears streaming down her face. Little paper planes were stuck in her hair and splashes of red stained her nice dress. myrtle didn't reach her own door. She threw down her back pack and ran into the woods. She climbed the highest cliff she could find, and stood at the very top. After losing all her energy from climbing and crying Mrytle fell asleep atop that cliff. When she opened her eyes before her was a beautiful iridescent dragon. She had known that there were some in the world, but never had she thought she would meet one.

It spoke to her in the voice of a wise old cosmic being. "Why do you cry so" She asked. Mrytle was star struck and only uttered "they…th…they tease me". Mrytle wiped away a few tears and her long white hair dripped into her face. The dragon with her large talons carefully moved it away from Mrytle's eyes before setting down her foot, and saying "Shh little one, you do not look so weak to me, no, I know why you cry, You are lost aren't you, Lost in here". The dragon pointed to Mrytles head. Mrytle nodded more tears falling from her crystal eyes. "No, no darling, No more tears, Its okay to be lost, Would you like to know something" The dragon questioned. Mrytle nodded her head looking up to the beautiful old one. " I am lost too". Mrytle's eyes widened "your lost too" She asked bewildered "but your so old". The dragon let out a great laugh "yes, that is true, but sometimes it takes a very long time to find what you are searching for". Mrytle smiled a bit. The dragon's last question was the one Mrytle had been hoping to hear "Would you like to search with me?" .

From then on Mrytle was searching. Searching for who she was. Searching how to be happy, and searching how to become one with the comos. She doesn't get teased like she did before, but the scars of it stay with her. Mrytle later learned that her dragons name was Andromeda, and that she was a type of dragon that had been long lost. What Andromeda was in fact searching for was her family. She is sure that there are more of her kind out there. She just has to find them.
