[OOC] Acadia

[shagranoz]

Jenny Harris

Name: Jenny Harris

Race: Human

Age: 13

Year: 1

Gender: Female

Appearance: Tall and slender, Jenny has ink-black hair and brown eyes. Her skin is so pale she looks like a stereotypical vampire, and a series of burn marks cover her left arm. They look random at first glance, but they're actually the details of her contract with Inithriel, written in an eldritch tongue.

Personality: Even accounting for her disability, Jenny is a quiet girl. She prefers to sit in the back of the class and take her notes, without bothering anyone or vice versa. Recently, though, she's been getting a bit of a temper, perhaps due to her new contract.

Specialties: Environmental/Dimensional Summoning: Spirits are all around, in every rock and tree, but these are not the sprits Jenny prefers to summon. No, she goes straight for the darkest beings, things no girl should know exist, much less make deals with. Right now, Jenny's only contract is with Inithriel, a spirit of fire and rage. Inithriel gets a physical vessel, and Jenny gets power- fire magic, to be specific. Win-win.

History: It all began when Jenny was two. Scarlet fever, and a particularly nasty case at that. The doctors were able to save her life, but she lost the ability to speak. Her parents got her a smartphone a year ago, figuring that it was much easier than writing or signing. That was also the time her older sister started falling with the Wiccan crowd. Jenny read one out of sheer curiosity and found, to her shock, that she could do magic. A few internet searches and some study of the basics later, she made her first summoning, allowing a spirit to inhabit her phone. Acadia made contact a few days after that.

Family: Father- Michael Mother-Sarah Older sister- Amy. None have any magic whatsoever and will not be seen.

[Achronum]

@shagranoz very nice, looks good. I take it since it's a spirit of fire and rage, there are times when it may try and wrest control from Jenny?

[shagranoz]

indeed. She might even let it take over for a power boost in a life-or-death situation.

[Rune_Alchemist]

Ho fun.

I am imagining an eventual showdown between water and fire spirits here. Minthe is probably going to attempt assuming direct control if that ever happens.

[Duoya]

@Achronum
Where is Acadia?
Is it it's own little pocket dimension, or is it in the prime dimension?

Also, how will magic work? Will you create spells for us to use, or do we create our own for you to approve?

[TheWendil]

Is this still open to the general interest?

❖ Rika ❖

Rika ❖ Volt
^{Height: 175 cm ❖ Weight: 77 kg ❖ Age: 17 Years}

"Yeah, go ahead. Just try to catch up."

_{♢ N A M E ♢}

Rika Volt

_{♢ R A C E ♢}

Human

_{♢ Y E A R ♢}

Second Year

_{♢ G E N D E R ♢}

Female

_{♢ P E R S O N A L I T Y ♢}

Rika likes to think she’s as cool as her powers would suggest. Opting to smooth talk her way out of situations rather than fight, she’s laid back, lazy, and overall chill. Considering her special abilities, there is a great deal of irony here and one would think her mind would run a mile a minute. Calm as the snow, but sharp as ice when need be; evidently, this means she doesn’t get along too well with hot-heads or people who talk way too damn fast. More irony.

She has, admittedly, a bit of a hero complex and that stems directly from her powers. Although it always miffs her when she’s not the one to save the day, she’ll quickly get over it with just a quick jibe to herself that she wasn’t fast enough. Speed is something she values greatly and the desire to get faster is always a mental obstruct for her to overcome. Just as soon as she stops being lazy and actually put some effort in that regard.

_{♢ C O M B A T ♢}

Rika’s magic is of the innate kind and it allows her to move faster than normal humans, so much so that she is classified as a Speedster. As such, dodging incoming objects to her face is a breeze with a simple step to the left. She can run incredible distances in the blink of an eye but it also striving to break her own personal records.

Even so, speed is her only real factor in a fight. With no experience in actual hand-to-hand combat, she’s more reliant on overwhelming her foes through sheer speed or attacking at many angles. Besides, one can’t take down what they can’t even hit, right? Furthermore, with speed comes a slight buff to her strength as well, but compared to her speed it’s nothing that much noteworthy.

_{♢ H I S T O R Y ♢}

Rika’s upbringing was nothing short of boring and lethargic. Her parents were slow, her siblings were slow…really, everyone in her life seemed to be stuck in traffic or something. She was always the one with her head in the clouds, anxious and uncertain about the days to come. At some point though her family’s chilled nature began to affect her but a laxed demeanor in a speedy body only breeds a more interesting result.

A conflict of nature, Rika would realize her own innate magic through an exercise meant to cater to her fast lifestyle; running. So run she did, getting faster and faster until she was to the point where she was outspeeding not only everyone in her family, but really…well, everyone else. Thus there was no doubt in her mind that this was why she was invited to Acadia Academy.

What followed as a fun first year of goofing off, racing anyone who would agree to it, and really just chilling through both studies and other necessities. Miraculously she made it to her second year at the school and not much has changed from her younger self. She likes to think she’s matured just a little bit from her time at the Double AA. Just a little though; never too much.

_{♢ R E L A T I O N S H I P S ♢}

There’s not much to say about Rika’s family other than that they approved of her attending Acadia Academy. They’re quite supportive of whatever she sets her mind too, but they will warn her of the reckless danger that can come about with such thinking. As any good family should. With a mother and father, she is the youngest and only female out of a batch of three other siblings.

_{♢ O T H E R ♢}

She’s very affectionate in giving herself nicknames, some of which include, “Speed Demon”, “Blue Blur”, and “Scarf Hero Zero”. She also likes to refer to the Academy as the “AA” or “Double A” for short and precise delivery. Quick and speedy is always the case with Rika, reflected in her eating habits of fast, microwavable meals. Obviously not the best choice in a healthy diet but her quick metabolism can’t really tell the difference.

Finally finished making the character

Arthur Bennet

Name: Arthur Bennett
Race: Human
Age: 16
Year at Academy: 1
Gender: Male
Apperance:
Personality: A troublemaker since little Arthur has a hair trigger temper and even if he has been able to reduce his violent outburst that doesn't mean he gets pissed off easily. Arthur has a tendency to disregard rules and warning if there is something that peaks his interest. His lack of friends during his childhood has made him into a quiet person except in the case he is pissed off where he can easily rant about the topic he is pissed off for.

Skills, Talents, Specialties: Astrobelt: a belt with four sockets and a lever, on its own the belt is just a fancy looking toy but when a switch is inserted on the correct socket and pressed the socket uses the magic inside it to create a construct based on where it was put (ie a swich inserted on a right socket will create a construct on his right arm, which each switch only being able to be inserted in one). since the switches are magical batteries continued use they can run out of power and need to be recharged. Currently Arthur has only 4 switches that his neighbor created:
1.The right arm orange switch will create a red fist on his right hand, giving him superhuman strength.
2.The left arm black switch will give him a shield on his left hand, capable of making itself more durable and bigger the more magic is used on it.
3.The right leg blue switch creates a chainsaw on his right food and is Arthur main weapon, tough maneuverability is an issue.
4. Lastly the pink switch gives his left leg a pogo stick that can be used to jump high distances, tough Arthur still doesn't know how to control it well enough
History: Born to a middle low class family, Arthur was often left alone on his house with his parents working until late hours of the night. Arthur discharged his feelings of loneliness and frustration starting with interrupting the teachers in the classroom, to heated arguments with teachers and fight with students on the school.

During his last suspension of two weeks Arthur did nothing but play with his ball on the backyard, he had no friends to play with so he just kicked the ball to the wall, until it bounced off into the neighbor's house. Arthur´s parents would not come back any time soon, and the neighbor was an old man so Arthur climbed the wall into his neighbor's backyard. While looking for the ball he found a broken window, Arthur was already invading property so he checked the back door finding it open, entering the house .

Inside he looked around and he saw the ball near a desk with a strange belt and a few small switches in it, with no one inside he put the belt on and grabbed the orange switch and inser iit in one of the sockets, which caused the belt to turn on and make some strange sounds. Weirded out but still curious he pressed the switch, for a moment nothing happened Arthur though it was just a simple toy and was about to take the belt off, when his right hand started to glow, transforming into a giant red fist.

Arthur was taken aback, it was just like the a transforming devices of tv heroes, he had to know how or why his neighbor had it. He set his eyes on the desk and began to look for some notes or something that explained the functions of the belt. While searching he didn't notice the door opening and a man walking by, until he felt a touch on his shoulder. Brought back to reality and seeing his neighbor examining him, Arthur had not taken the belt off and his hand was still a red fist. There wasn't any explanation that he could make that could fool his neighbor into thinking that he didn't break his house and was using his belt, so he resorted to apologizing, he kneel on the floor and asked for forgiveness for entering the house but that he lets him help whatever thing he needed but that he lets him use the belt.

His neighbor looked at him for a moment then let out a sigh, he accepted to let Arthur use the belt but with the conditions that he couldn't get into fights, be suspended again and that he would have to come to his house after school to help him test the belt and with his daily errands, Arthur accepted gladly and returned the belt to his owner, with his hand returning back to normal. In the following days he returned to school with many teachers and students surprised by his new attitude with many classmates trying to bait him into losing his temper, Arthur managed to held on and went home immediately after hearing the bell ring. That is how his new routine started where he learned the inner workings of the belts and the switches, one day while working on a new switch a blank paper appeared over his notes, once the words appeared to him the first thing that went to his mind was that if someone was pranking him.

Relationships: Family: They don't talk a lot since they are always working, in the brief chances they are free they usually ask Arthur about what happened while they were gone, Arthur doesnt hate him but resents them a bit for leaving him alone many times when he was little.

Neighbo(Called gramps by Arthur): The original creator of the astrobelt, and the one who took Arthur as his apprentice when he offered to it, he treats Arthur as his grandson but still berates him for his temper.

[MonkeyBusiness]

Lei Lani

Name: Lei Lani
Race: Demon
Age: 15
Year at Academy: Year 2
Gender: Female

Personality: Lei Lani is a mischievous person who enjoys messing with people that she just met. She is a very talkative who enjoys meeting new people and is always very friendly. She can be absentminded at times and can be mesmerized by the movement of fire as it flickers in her sight. She has a nasty habit of at times of being annoyed to lose her normal self and turn into an angry creature that is made when she doesn't get her way.

Skills, Talents, Specialties: Lei Lani sports two separate innate magics that have strong attachments to her person. The first of her magics is Pyrokinesis, this allows her to control the form of fire and gives her an immunity to burning and a resistance to heat. She is able to wrap her body in flames as well as light other objects on fire. This is still a developing power and Lei still does not have a lot of control over the power as a whole. Her second magic is gravity manipulation magic. This magic allows her to control her surrounding gravity allowing her float in mid air or even a limited form of flying but she can not use her powers on other objects or people yet.

History: Lei Lani was born into the harsh dimension that is Pandemonium. She had a fairly normal childhood as far as being a demon in a realm that is no order is concerned. Her fire magic abilities manifested in her early years to the happiness of her parents as fire magic was a generational trait for her family. Her dad was the one who helped her start to control her magic and always told her that Acadia would be the place to go if she was going to really control her powers.

Soon before the letter for Acadia arrived to bring her to that magical dimension, her gravity magic started to show itself as another innate magic.

Relationships: Family, Friends, Romantic, etc.

Other: Lei Lani has a bad habit of igniting her tail tip on fire and space out while starting in the flames.

MɅRO

MɅRO JVNIVS GɅIVS

^{Angel, Celesti}



Age: 15
Year at Academy: 2
Gender: Male

---

Personality
Unsurprisingly, Maro is collected, polite, respectful and insightful, but not too quiet. This is to be expected in an angelic upbringing, specifically of the Celesti kind. Though not laid-back and lazy, Maro prefers to keep things slow and steady, being rather prone to being overwhelmed with the frustration of a large workload than other hardworking angels.

Much like contemporary views on angels, Maro is no less prone to sin than man. In particular, his worst faults are his tendency to be overly critical, self-righteous, and disdainful. More often than not, this spells trouble for anyone nosy, boisterous, faulty, and most especially Ysgardian.

--

_SPECIALTY:

GUARDIAN

Maro, as an angel, has the innate ability to naturally heal himself almost rapidly; moderate lacerations heal in a matter of a few dozen seconds, and many small wounds can simply be shrugged off. This, of course, doesn't exclude him from death and incapacitation; what's supposed to kill instantly kills instantly, what's supposed to remove an arm removes an arm, and so. As a further line of defense, Maro is able to put up a tangible AT field barrier able to deflect harmful blows from one side, also innate.

Maro's main weapons of choice are Platinum, a tough one-handed sword lightweight and able to move swiftly, and Armament, a powerful and accurate, but somewhat heavy rifle.

--

History
The Celesti are so known for their strict, rigid social structure. When one strays off from their expected behavior, an Angel is often subject to sanctions so harsh that Celestia has been sometimes said to become ironically more in line with the old Hell of divine justice and retribution than Pandemonium is.

So it's no surprise that Maro grew into a stern upbringing, often trained to discipline by his father. It is also with this that Maro was able to achieve his innate power so early on. Such an achievement at an early age might have led Maro to being invited to Acadia, an honor his father rewarded with his two prime weapons.

A year has passed since. Enemies and allies made, milestones done and had. While he might have already gone far, there's still more to go ahead of him.
--

Relationships

By default, Maro possesses less favorable views on demons and Ysgard angels.

Not much is to be said about his family other than having deep gratitude for their support and upbringing, and some mixed thoughts regarding the harsh discipline he had throughout his youth.

--

Other
Maro won't entertain questions regarding his extravagantly Roman name.

He has a low opinion on the concept of Nephilim. Expect him to immediately persecute them, if he ever meets one at all.
