■w e l c o m e

Wellington Academy, as it is known, goes beyond the definition of your typical school. It was founded by Weiss Gillian Wellington who long had a dream of establishing a school that made use of his own ideals and principles of how a school should be—learning as a game where a blend of rich, poor and all in-between students would be coming together to learn at their own pace. It is rumored that even the air is clean, grass greener and the bird's chirping purer. It is a school solely established for the students and thought to be an idyllic and fantastical place.

Wellington Academy sits on a massive plot of land that used to be abandoned until Weiss Gillian Wellington purchased it and worked towards creating his ideal school grounds. The paths and tunnels that surround the school were crisscrossed with pathways that made no real sense. The goal being that the students would take it upon themselves and also explore the grounds; even Weiss Gillian Wellington himself did not know the location of every tunnel or space.

Schools are often known for many things: their graduates, sports teams, or academics. Wellington Academy, on the other hand, is known for its fairy-like existence. Wellington Academy had no applications, rigid essays, or interview process. If you want to apply and be considered for Wellington Academy, just get in touch.

So! Congratulations on your acceptance to Wellington Academy. While surprised you were accepted, you will still be studying with the best of the best; after all, Wellington Academy only accepts gifted students. Some of the students you will be studying alongside with will range from those that have already won awards or published their own books, to those as ordinary as the next person. What you all have in common, as students of Wellington, is that you all possess an individual gift—the thirst for more knowledge.




▄p r e m i s e

Wellington Academy is meant to be a slice-of-life RP that follows the lives of gifted high school students. It will take place before the beginning of the school semester where you may enter as an incoming student experiencing the Wellington Academy life for the first time, or returning students that already know the ropes. The RP is meant to be guided by your interactions with your fellow students and the GM will be posting important plot points ever so often to keep the interest fresh. There will be games held in which your character can participate that will be detailed when announced.

▄p o i n t e r s

┘┌ Please post the CS first in the OOC for review, once accepted by either the GM or Co-GM, you may then move your CS onto the character sheet side.
┘┌ There are no posting deadlines! I hope that we're able to keep ourselves entertained without needing these. However, please do be mindful that you're not posting back to back and everyone has a chance to post and catch up.
┘┌ Please refrain from using characters that are mary/gary sues. While this is an academy for gifted students, they are still children (14-18) so their achievements should be realistic to their age.
┘┌ Anything can be considered a gift. If a student has a specific interest such as astronomy and are well-informed in that field, that's their gift.
┘┌ A max of 3 characters per person if needed. However, If you believe you can handle more than that, just request it!
┘┌ Distribution of Weller Stars and Weller Moons will be handled by the GM/Co-GM.
┘┌ As always, make sure to follow the usual RPGuild rules and if for whatever reason you believe you have a problem, please speak to the GM/Co-GM.
┘┌ There's a discord! Not mandatory, but definitely recommended!
┘┌ Enjoy! It's meant to be a lax RP with some games inbetween to spice things up.

Wellington Academy ₊*





While the Academy is wonderfully crafted from the outside, the same can be said with it's interior. Before you walk into the academy you are met with an elegant small fountain where a ring of hedges surround it. Pasty white flowers fill the brown flooring, vines trace the fountain and hedges. One would assume a fairy took home in this dream like of a scenery.

A dainty blend of crimson and green plants sprout on the benches around this rest area. Students can be seen taking in the view or reading their literature books. It is but a sight to behold. Upon entering the rusted asymmetrical shape of a building, guests are welcomed with a glass checkered floor with white chairs pasted everywhere. Big glass windows are placed neatly on the sides of the building as well as the roof.

Vases of flowers, plants and vines find their way creeping in the corners of the building. There is a singular red couch (where students can also sit and rest) while behind it is a huge painting of Weiss Gillian Wellington. A large staircase is trailed upwards and endless of hallways are formed. Classrooms are in each section with their respective staff.

The fountain area holds the entrance to every building. There are four cross sections with no directions, it is but a learning experience for the students to find what each pathway leads to(and of course to keep it in their memory). Wellington Academy holds a building just for the library (which has books dated from way back for the students to enjoy), as well as a garden, cafeteria, an outside court that is connected with the gym building, and lastly the faculty building.

Welcome to the Academy.

Academy Information ₊*






Weller Stars ₊*


At Wellington Academy, you are awarded Weller Stars dependent on your performance. This can range from how you carry yourself to your academic standing to something as simple as completing one of the academy games. A small pocketbook is given for students that prefer to keep their stars in a safe place instead of pining it to their uniform (there was an unfortunate incident in which some stars went missing in action.) These stars are a symbol of prestige in the academy and the rumor is that depending on the amount of stars you possess, the way you're treated varies.

As an incoming student, you start out with no stars with the chance of earning them. At the same time, you may also lose them depending on your actions or whether you receive a Weller moon. The max amount of stars that can be earned is 5 stars and perks do come with each level. Every student is entitled to all the basic needs; but luxuries do come depending on the number of stars you acquire.


Weller Moons ₊*



As a complete opposite to the Weller Stars, the Weller Moons are given as a form of disciplinary action. A Weller Moon is assigned or given to a student if their performance is poor, their behavior is unruly, or any other reason the faculty may deem as reason enough. The max amount of Weller Moons that can be earned are 5 and on the 5th Weller Moon earned, the student is expelled from the academy with no options of reapplying. Weller Moons are permanent and are used as a warning system so the students understand their positions and what is at stake.

Just as Weller stars are hard to achieve, one must have really erred to receive a Weller Moon—it's normally seen as the last resort. Upon receiving a Weller Moon, you will lose all of the Weller Stars you have acquired up to that point will be forfeited and you must start from zero once more.











Wellington Academy Cottages ₊*


    ┘┌ Zinnia Cottage
    ┘┌ Wisteria Cottage
    ┘┌ Coleus Cottage
    ┘┌ Begonia Cottage


At Wellington Academy we offer the best of the best to facilitate our student's stay with us. Currently, due to the limited amount of student accepted, there are four cottages in which the students reside in. The cottages are separated in locations within the academy estate and are spacious enough to accommodate the students. All cottages contain two floors: first floor includes the common area such as the living room and communal bathroom, the second floor is where all the individual rooms are located—each student has their own personal room.

Students are mandated to attend breakfast, lunch, and dinner at the school building. A bell is rung early in the morning, and for both lunch and dinner there's a melody that is played to let the students know. Students are allowed to stay in the school building before 8pm but their curfew is at 10pm. There is no bell or melody when 10pm hits; it is up to the student to hold that responsibility and be back at their dorms before 10.

Each cottage is named after a plant—courtesy of Weiss Gillian Wellington. These plants are painted on the doors of every cottage so the students are able to tell what their cottage insignia is. There is no rivalry between the cottages (that is known to faculty) but students definitely have their respective pride when it comes to their cottage. All cottages share the same scenery, beautiful trees, flowers, and mushrooms. Keeping it's mystic appearance all throughout, at Wellington Academy the cottages—of course—even have the same aura.







Wellington Academy Uniforms ₊*


Wellington Academy holds itself proud over the design of their uniforms for the students; if requested, a student can give the academy their preference on whether they would like a dress or pants.

The academy girl's uniform consists of a black long-sleeved dress with a ruffled cape. Dressed nicely on the collar lays a white ribbon, which is said to be Gillian's favorite color (for snow is but his favorite weather where angels are created.) It is not required to wear the cape but it looks presentable and put together. The black dress has side pockets; the shoes are black/brown buckled with a gold emblem on them.

The boys uniforms are of a black long sleeved coat, covered with a ruffled cape. Underneath lays a white dress shirt with black overalls. The shoes are black/brown loafers together with white socks. Depending on the stars a student has, they can customize their uniform to what they deem fit.

The PE uniforms are nothing big, a simple white polo shirt with a golden emblem on the shoulder. The pants are black shorts (or sweats) with Wellington's name printed on the hem, while the shoes are black/white sneakers.

I'm just hoping JD will get along with everyone!

I assumed there was going to be some sort of PM or something based on the stars and moons, since the OC said that handing them out is handled by the GM and co-GM. I misunderstood that completely, so my bad. I'll give him 3 stars since that's what I had in mind for him!

Hey! Nice character love the picture and deff accepted. I find it okay that he doesn't want to say it outright about the weller moons but I would appreciate it if you could send me a PM explaining how he got the moons! Especially since its 4. Other than that everything is fine.

Just going to work on her here. May need to resize the image.

Her history isn't all sad, I just wanted to get the big details in there without it being like 'this is what happened and then this, etc', and I didn't want to make too big of a text blob so I sorta cut it off where it is.
