[OOC] Hikari Academy

[Silver Carrot]

I'll post tomorrow, hopefully

[Sync]

After Cercess post we can assign orders. I'm assuming that the teachers and KOL are going to be the ones that are gonna outline the structure of how this mission will play out so if anything I suggest they post last in case anything needs to be invalidated/validated. I prefer to have second to last at the student post, really but I can choose which ever. Are you guys okay with that?

[Awesomoman64]

@Sync

I'd say whoever we assign as team captain should be first in post order so they can call the shots, then the others can choose to follow or do their own thing in whatever order, followed by GMs telling us how we dun goofed.

[Strange Rodent]

@Awesomoman64

Yeah, I vote for that. Do that one.

[Cerces22]

So gentlemen who would be team captain?? That is now the important question

[Awesomoman64]

If offered Roland would jump to the position, but obviously there are pros and cons with that.

[Cerces22]

@Awesomoman64

IDT Yurius or Mako would endorse that leadership for the obvious reasons lmao

[Sync]

So are the teachers there only to engage when things are bad or not? If they're just mediators then I can agree with having any lead. If Lumen is offered to be placed at the helm though he wouldn't agree to it by mere extension of a few quirks of his.

[Awesomoman64]

@Sync

As far as I can tell that's the case. This is also based on KoL's statement:

You can choose who will be the captain of the students' part of the teams and assign team names if you are feeling specially inspired.

In fact, it would be very appreciated if you did so.

@KoL

@Cerces22

They won't have a choice if the other two decline like Lumen.

[Sync]

Neat, then i don't mind who's leader then. Although Lumen might be reluctant at first he can be persuaded, if not that fine too. Every action would have a very interesting dynamic.

[Cerces22]

@Sync@Awesomoman64

Well I think whomever we choose as Captain will be interesting to say the least #temam edgelords #team problem children lmao

[Awesomoman64]

This is my take on it:

Roland would be great at making snap decisions and wouldn't buckle under fear or pressure. The negative of this of course is most his plans wouldn't be too thought out and his more straight forward approach to things might get them into more trouble.

Lumen seems like he would be the opposite. His plans would be well thought out and he might even have a more creative approach to problems. But his reluctance and doubt in himself might keep him back from making fast calls and could lead to others doubting him as well.

Circe seems to know her shit and is confident about that. She wouldn't have a problem giving an order in any situation, but her distrust of others along with not being the most personable could lead to in team conflict or disobedience from the rest.

Ceiran I think is close to Lumen in the 'thinks things out' camp, but his lack of control with the twitch demon could really cause some problems if it took over at the wrong time.

In the end, it's gonna be a heck of a ride for whoever gets the title.

[Cerces22]

@Awesomoman64

Ya the bitch is hard to like isn't she?? Lmao, but you give valid pros an cons for everyone I think it will boil down to Circe and Roland arguing and the teachers have final say

[KoL]

Ok, so it seems that you need more clarifications for this, huh?

So, first things first:

- The teachers are there to look after/guide your characters. Nothing is disallowing them from taking part, especially if things get out of hand for the students. The way they'll behave is really a choice of their own.

- If establishing a post order is the best idea for you then so be it. Just don't be too attached to it to the point it may slow down the story's progress.

- The team name's part is just a joke on the RWBY-like nature of the RP. The main difference being that Reiko and Aria aren't mad enough to push unsupervised teens off of a cliff, into a forest of certain death... yet.

- The faster you begin the missions the faster we get to the good parts. The teams are supposed to leave the Academy as soon as they've assembled. If that wasn't clear enough IC.

- I guess that's pretty much all that you need to know by now.

[TheWendil]

Or I make an NPC and just guide the team that way.

[Silver Carrot]

I'm pretty much just waiting for Mako's team to assemble. Duncan, on the other hand, I did want to have chat with Sonia, so that's my bad.

[Sync]

@Thewindel

I don't think that's necessary. Any of the pieces that are needed will fall into place eventually. I'm still gonna wait for the last of our team to post and we can immediately jump into the good stuff.

[TheWendil]

@Sync

You assume I don't desire to give you a psycho leader. With a chainsaw.

[KoL]

@Sync

Your team is good to go already. Everyone has posted.

[Cerces22]

@TheWindel

I in fact love and whole heartidly endorse this idea lol
