[OOC] Academy Bound!

[Aisling]

The beginning of your new life…….Out there on a lonely planet called Earth is some shunned people. Well maybe not really shunned but not noticed very often, kinda strange, weird or simply not understood. Each and every one of the people has something in common with each other. None of them yet know what bonds them together but they, aye that they soon will. The Creator has made a place for these special on the Planet called Safe Haven. On Safe Haven is a land mass called Sanctuary and more specifically on Caldwell's Lands. What matters most is that these special people with this ancient core are gathered and placed there where they will be safe once more.

Until the fated day, this misunderstood person sees an old picture of an academy somewhere, it doesn’t matter where it is found. The picture could be in an attic, museum, art exhibit, or anywhere in your imagination. Then when the misunderstood person happens to touch the picture, he or she is ‘drawn into’ the said picture.

I have run this Academy before but this will be the first time that I am running a shorten version of Caldwell’s. We will concentrate more on between classes and after classes. I will be GMing the Traditional Magic Academy while chukklehed will be GMing the Dragon Academy. Each of us will have certain expectations for our own students.

I will be posting a bulletin board for my students with class schedule, what the class is about and the powers that you will be allowed to use. Room assignment will be there as well as my rules.

chukklehed will have dragons ready soon. All Draconic students will be under me till then.

Dislikes:

Personality:
Genevieve is a very fun loving and outgoing person. She loves to read books because she always feels like they take her on an adventure. She is adventurous and hardly ever gets angry. She is proud of where so comes from and hates it when people make fun of her for being a hybrid. She is very friendly and loves meeting new people, especially those who come to the school brand new. She also tries to lighten everyone's day and tries to meet a new person at least once a day. She is ambitious and sometimes a bit ditzy. Some people say that she is a dreamer.

History:
Genevieve, in fact, is actually royalty. She was born in on a small island outside of Sanctuary where her father was the ruler of the land who made an agreement with her mother's people. Her father was human whereas her mother was an elf. Her father hated elves for their beauty and immediately despised his new wife, but he only married her to keep the peace between the nations. He despised his daughter as well and nearly killed Genevieve more than once.

Once Genevieve was old enough and her mother learned of these attempted assassinations, her mother took her away to a far and safe place a.k.a. Sanctuary. She and her mother hid there, watching from a great distance as war broke out among the island. Her mother kept her hidden until she turned fourteen, which is when she was sent to the Caldwell Islands, where she was to remain hidden away from her father.

Genevieve didn't know of her true blood until last year, when her mother visited her on the Islands and told her what was really going on. Genevieve didn't mind. She loved adventure so much that she considered her life as an adventure, beginning from when she was born. She took that news and manipulated it into her mind to where she was happy with it. She now goes to school at the Academy and just considers it another adventure.

But her grandmothers both live at home, and dote on their little Pons. Nevertheless, Pons is not unfamiliar with hardship. Two years ago her parents were both unemployed, and Pons and his 2 brothers and 2 sisters were homeless. Pons's father had lost his job and within 1 week both of his grandfathers died tragically. He was very grateful that his life was turning around.
One day he was looking throught boxes in the attic when he noticed stars shining beyond a dark section he had never noticed before. He investigated and found that there was another section of the attic and painted on the far wall was a beautiful representation of the night sky. Holes had been punched through the wall to let in light around the brighter stars. As he stared he noticed a galaxy swirling, and touched it with his finger. Suddenly he was pulled off his feet and into the painting.

@ScarlettWaters16 and @Scorde
Please read the Rules. You obviously missed something.

@Scorde All of it unless you want a mind swipe which you would have to ask for from one of the instructors. You will have a chance to go home between sessions.

[Aisling]

Here is the list of possible pets. Just click on the links until you find the pet you want to have. You may have 1 pet at this time.

So please choose a room. All rooms have windows but there are no secret passages.
The numbers are 1-10.

She enjoys teaching those who are willing to learn and will obey her rules at all times. However, she is a bit lonely.
History: She was a Librarian in the young adult section of a big city library. One day she was cleaning some new paintings that came in when she was pulled into the picture. She landed on the lawn which she named the Fall. The Creator met her and instructed her about her new world. She is the HeadMistress of Caldwell's.

Name: Mystique Rose deForest
Appearance:
Working on Picture
Age: 15
Room:
Race: Human
Traditional Magic
Magic Specialty: Mental/Mind Control Magic
Rank of the Basic 4 (Fire, Water, Earth, Air/Wind):
1) Fire
2) Air
3) Earth
4) Water
Magic Affinity: Mental
Unique Traits: Mystique has no unique trait.
Likes: chocolate, gardening, crafts, reading
Dislikes: loud noises, people walking up behind her, canines,
Personality: Always helpful, Mystique will go out of her way to help others and forgets her own needs. Quick Temper, Distrustful, Curious
History:
Mystique was dropped off at an orphanage when she was first born. She has bright copper red hair and deep green eyes which was considered a witchy trait. She was sent out to various couples but the couples would bring her back for one reason or another. She had her room even though it was quite small. It used to be a walk in closet at one time. Mystique had a special way with animals and she claimed to be able to communicate with them. She also had a hot temper and with the hot temper came her ability to make a fire ball. Once she was able to make fire balls at the young age of 5, she was no longer considered adoptable. She was taught that throwing fire balls was not a good thing and she would get herself into trouble. In fact the people at the orphanage did their best to make sure that Roisin did not get angry until she was much older and had learned how to control her temper. She grew up and was the eldest child in the orphanage.
One day while in the attic of the orphanage with one of the staff, Mystique found the picture of Caldwell’s hanging on the wall. She was entranced with the picture and walked over to the picture. She took a finger to dust off the tiny sign and she was pulled through the picture- much to the surprise of the staff person.
Pet desired: Firecat kitten
Other: Follow the rainbow.
