[OOC] Eagleton High [Just Your Average, Everyday High School Roleplay]

[DestinyStar]

Welcome to Eagleton High - Home of the Lions!

A place for learning, growing, and perhaps... other things. Who knows what could happen in this average, overdone story where creativity flows freely? Sometimes it's good to just explore the ordinary! Here are the rules:

- Each character must be approved by me before they may be used in the IC tab.
- All characters need to have a permanent role within the school (it won't be any fun playing the creepy neighbor or kid from out-of-town, trust me!).
- As of now, no magical powers or abilities (may change later on upon request, or if things get boring).
- No power-playing; you may only control what your own character does.
- All content must remain PG-13; sex and violence are allowed, but no graphic details, please. If you think it's too much, it probably is, and I reserve the right to have you remove your post.
- To keep it simple, only students in the same grade may be in the same classes; do not say that your sophomore character sat next to the junior character in their class (this is to prevent every student in the RP being all in one class - more realistic, that way). Lunch will be a time for all students to interact.

Let's get started with some characters! Applications are always open, but characters need to be ORIGINAL - no anime/movie/TV characters, sorry. You may have as many characters as you can handle! But you do need to fill out a separate form for each one. If you want to join in at any time, just fill out and post this character sheet here for approval:

Name:
Gender:
Role (Teacher, Student, Principal, etc.):
Age:
Grade (if applicable):
Appearance (may use a photo):
Bio (your character's backstory, how they got to where they are now)
Anything Else We Should Know:

After you have been approved, please copy and paste your approved form into the Character tab at the top of the page BEFORE posting in the IC tab! Each character must be approved separately before they may be used in the RP, but make sure that your characters are all listed under a SINGLE POST in the Character tab (so that we can see all of the characters that belong to you in one place). If you add a character later on, be sure to edit your last post in the Character tab, rather than adding a new post! You may begin posting as soon as you have done this. :)

I'm looking forward to sharing this experience with all of you! <3

[OldManWong]

Name:
Gideon Serenade

Gender:
Male

Role:
Student

Age:
15

Grade:
Sophomore

Appearance:

PICS

Despite being fairly lean, Gideon’s broad shoulders and overwhelming height give him a fairly domineering presence. His eyes are already developing smile wrinkles but he has yet to show a smile.

Bio:
Gideon switched into the school his freshman year, initially he intentionally isolated himself from his peers, but eventually he began to interact with others. He is known for being calm and kind, although he still keeps his distance. In school, he generally stands at the apex of physical activities and competitions even when pitted against upper classman, but his grades are only average.

Anything Else We Should Know:
There’s a lot more to it, but I figure I’ll rather show than tell. Lest there is objection from GM

Here is my character! ^.^


Name: Kimberly (Kimmy) Connelly
Gender: Female
Role: Student
Age: 14
Grade: Freshman
Bio: Kimmy was born in the heart of New York City, where her parents had thrived in their artistic careers- her mother a painter, her father an editor for a big magazine company. However, Kimmy was born with a defect known as Albinism, which meant frequent doctor visits and eye exams, and even a couple surgeries. Her parents no longer had much time for their art. Her father took an office job to pay the bills and her mom stayed home to care for her through her youth. She grew up those first few years like any normal child, but once school started, so did the taunting. Her classmates often called her "Vampire Girl" because of the umbrella she had to carry around, and often they would lock her in closets and say, "I thought you liked the dark!" when she would cry. She was outcast for her white hair and gleaming red eyes.
Stories were told about how if you became friends with her, she would climb into your room and drain you of blood until you were as pale as she was. Of course, all of the children stayed away from her after those rumors got around. As they saw their child slowly become more and more unhappy, her parents decided it was time to move away from the city and to a smaller town where, hopefully, people would be more accepting. The excellent doctors in New York had supported her through the worst of the defect (mainly her eyesight, which has improved enough to be sustained by strong contact lenses), so they would be okay with regular small-town doctors. And her parents would have more time to continue their art, since the cost of living in this small town was more affordable. Both of her parents took part-time jobs during the day and continued their art in the evening, at home with their child.
Despite the change though, Kimmy did not become any happier. The kids in her new middle school in this new town did not spread the same nasty rumors about her, but many still felt frightened or intimidated by her demon-like appearance. Just as before, she was outcast, though more silently this time. With high school starting, and only a few of the kids from the new middle school here in the same town, Kimmy would normally be excited about the new chance to start over for a second time. However, something in her heart told her that things would be no different than before...
Anything Else We Should Know: Because she did not have many friends, Kimmy would often submerge herself in books, reading stories of epic heroes and underdogs seizing the victory. Although she will deny it to no end, she always has a small sliver of hope that one day she will become the underdog in her stories. Her parents bought her many books, seeing that they cheered her up, and she has since found herself quite comfortable being alone. She is also very intelligent because of this, so she usually has a good relationship with teachers (who are not usually as judgmental as the children).

@MissCapnCrunch Nina - Approved! :)

[MissCapnCrunch]

@DestinyStar Thankyou kindly c: I'll move her over to the bin
I didn't go too far into detail for her biography, as I always like to create as I go.

[DestinyStar]

That's ok! :) I usually feel the same, unless my character has gone through an experience I've never been through. Then I feel the need to be super detailed, for my future writing's sake. ^^"
