"O, the flowers of youth, let them bloom with grace, for eternity in the fields we cultivate..."

An excerpt of Nakkashiro Gakuen's anthem.

"Welcome young lady, to Nakkashiro Gakuen.

Here, you will be able to learn among the most gracious flowers of society. We hope that you enjoy your time with us as you learn not only academic disciplines from the most dedicated preceptors, as well as social etiquette and ladylike manners with us.

We hope you have a good time while you are here; you will have a life changing experience during your stay.

Our academy takes many gifted students from around the world and offer them comfort and education while trying to make them feel at home with the local students as well. Here, at the Castle of the Eternal Flowers, we don't refuse students with physical disabilities and welcome them with open arms like normal students.

Once again, welcome young lady and we hope that, just like the flowers our academy takes after, each of you will bloom with beauty and grace."

Story

Welcome to Castle of the Eternal Flowers Academy role play.

This is just a simple slice of life role play with an all girl's academy. Though, who's to say a mystery or two can't pop up to spice things a bit?

This roleplay is not really based on any specific anime, but I hope that we can make it as anime-like as possible, since I got the idea from various anime.

Glossary

Nakkashiro, the Castle of Eternal Flowers

An enormous educational complex, located at an slightly off-shore island, with a long monorail bridge and abundant natural life separating it from the continent. The academy is run by an all female staff; males aren't allowed to travel to the academy, unless serious circumstances demand so.

All living necessities of the students are covered, including a recreational complex with a private beach that the students can make use of when they are on free time. Its library has one of the most complete collections of the country and the most advanced educational appliances. And, finally, Nakkashiro's living quarters, that is its dormitories and lunch hall, would make many five star hotels ashamed of themselves.

For the many years that the school has been around, the students spread around many rumors, one of the school's major rumors is a urban legend speaking of a heart flower, the flower is said to be a hybrid flower of both a red rose and a simple lily.

The legend is said that if a student with a pure and innocent heart finds the flower, than their one true love or crush will fall for them before the end of the year, but some others say that the flower can grant any wish, and if the wish is selfless, and if the wish was for the one they loved most, then the flower would do the same as before and have the one they loved fall for them before the end of the year.

Interested

[Crimmy]

Guess I'll bring Mami back.

[Lucius Cypher]

I'm here to apply for Co-GM first and foremost, so that I may take over the RP after I successfully gather enough player support to displace Sprigg. And then things will go crazy from there.

Also introducing best girl:

[Spawnling]

Interested, seems like it could lead to some really dynamic and unique interactions between characters.

[Queue13]

I'll put down some interest ^-^

[TheWendil]

I guess I'll keep an eye on this-

@Spriggs27

You'll be the only one eating your words once I amass my own power base within the IC and OOC. I can promise excitement and destruction at the same time! I am the bringer of the end, and the harbinger of change! If the players ever wish to become more than what meager pittance you'd give them, they shall turn to me, who will answer their prayer in dazzling glory!

[Ogo]

Oh oh! Seems nifty! Count Ogo in ^-^

And I'm willing to accept bribes for my loyalty. I enjoy green tea and high-fives. *hint hint*

[Crimmy]

Name: Yoshida Mami (芳田 真美)

Age: 15

Height: 155cm

Weight: 48kg

Year: 1st

Nationality: Japanese

Appearance:


Personality: Mami is a withdrawn and introverted girl, quietly sticking to the background of events and doing her best not to be noticed by others. Social interaction, you see, is quite difficult for her to get her head around, and so she avoids it the best she can, rarely talking to her fellow classmates and getting everything done as quickly as possible so that she minimises the time spent in public. Indeed, she is much like a deer in the headlights of an incoming eighteen-wheeler when forced to engage in niceties with people, shyly doing her best to manoeuvre herself out of the situation, or, if incapable of doing so, speaking as little as possible. She fears the embarrassment that she believes she will cause for herself by interacting with others, a fear that can be evident from her low, quiet tones and tendency to utilise filler words so that her mouth doesn't stumble over itself and crash and burn like Mariner 1 in the North Atlantic.

In her heart, however, the girl truly wishes to overcome her difficulties in social situations, forever yearning to be able to engage in meaningful conversation with others without turning skittish and trying to run. Though she is fond of keeping to herself, one of her dearest wishes is to make a friend that will be there for her, one whose presence will be neither disturbing nor unwanted by her. As such, Mami frequently consults self-help books in her spare time, trying to conquer her low self-esteem and undeveloped socialisation skills as quickly as possible. She can be incredibly hesitant and uncomfortably shy, but deep underneath there is a strongly honed sense of determination and boldness that drives her through life (one that is noted through her many attempts at running from others) that she seeks to apply to her interaction with the public (currently failing, but despite her moroseness, she has yet to really give up).

Her interests lie mainly in the domain of nice-looking hats, but she also engages in the activities of writing in her diary (a simple, black bound exercise book), watching sports on the telly (she is also especially superstitious, as can be seen from her near-religious belief in the "Curse of the Colonel") and magic tricks. The latter was picked up in order to further her attempts at socialising with others, but her complete lack of friends and general avoidance of people have prevented her from showing any of her tricks off. She helplessly tries to keep a dignified manner as well, but the attempts are usually ruined upon contact with the outside world as she dorks around in life.

Bio: A native of the southern prefecture of Kagoshima, Mami was born as the heiress of an agricultural company, one that mainly dealt in the growing and selling of rice and rice products. From her earliest years, she was raised with the expectation that she would inherit the position of chair(wo)man from her father, and so was provided with the very best in education in order to establish the foundations she would require when running the company in the future. As a naturally meek and shy girl, the pressure weighed upon her intensely, forcing her deeper into a shell and straining her relationship with her parents. Becoming a major player in the rice industry was something that was greatly intimidating for her, and though she performed all the duties requested of her with little resistance, the goal set out by her family was not one that she really felt keen on. Her relationship with her mother and father, due to this, slowly degraded as time went on, and while there was still love between them, she grew distant from them, not really experiencing the gentleness that existed between other families.

School was no different for her, with any acquaintances she originally made soon becoming strangers as she retreated further and further from society, becoming a mere introverted girl on the edges of social life. She had no friends, no real connections, and while she did decently in her work, felt as if she was far inferior to everyone else. It was a tough time for Mami, as her self-esteem was non-existent, and her enjoyment of life was barely present. It was only through the intervention of a teacher that she began to try and improve herself, starting to religiously keep a diary and attempt at reaching out to others. However, even with her new vigour, she constantly failed, frightened and reclusive when faced with other people, and by the time she left middle school, she had progressed nowhere.

Her acceptance into Nakkashiro Gakuen, a prestigious school where she could hopefully find herself a fresh, new start, is where she hopes to change herself for the better.

Other: She is fluent in the Kagoshima dialect, and tends to speak overly formally (when she speaks, that is).

I'm presenting an old suspect, just in case:

Subject A

✨Itsuko✨

Name:

Itsuko Mariann Kanzaki

Age:

16

Height:

156 cm

Weight:

51 kg

Year:

2nd

Nationality:

Japanese/American

Appearance:

Personality:

Confidence, this is the word that can sum the irregular existence known as Itsuko Mariann Kanzaki. She's the best, the one and only, and she knows that and accepts no one spitting crap at her or trying to make the Rampaging Tiger bow down. That said, Itsuko can pass the impression that she's nothing but an arrogant fool to those around her, at least until they get acquainted to her and notice that, indeed she has an ego the size of the Sun, but she's no fool, or mean.

However, Itsuko has a habit of sticking up with people that she sees as those that need a bit of fire in their lives, or those she thinks are fun (though Itsuko's sense of fun is highly twisted because of her personality), after all... "If you don't think of yourself as the protagonist of your life, who will?" That's the most valuable lesson Itsuko got from her parents.

Nevertheless, to think of oneself as the best is not to think of others as inferiors, but to be the one who inspires others to find their own 'bestness', after all the true best is the one that can outshine the competition, just like the sun does to the other stars.

That's Itsuko for you, the shining star of gold that refuses to fade and bow, but at the same time serves as the guide to others, as long as they keep in mind that Itsuko is, and always will, be the number one.

Bio:

Itsuko Mariann Kanzaki, is the only daughter of the former commander of the US military base at Okinawa and the heiress of the Kanzaki zaibatsu, an industrial and financial conglomerate so vast and powerful that it's said that with a snap of their fingers the economy of the whole Japan could be snapped in half at a moment's notice.

To say that Itsuko had a privileged upbringing would be a gross euphemism, specially considering that her parents (as busy as they were) managed to avoid the stereotype of uncaring parents and made their best to be sure that Itsuko was always well. To cope with the huge amounts of time that she had for herself, Itsuko took on the hobby martial arts training and other athletic practices and became a genius when it comes not only to how use her body, but how to use it well.

Other:

Has been nicknamed Thunder Thighs by a certain someone, even though Itsuko doesn't know where this came from, she finds it amusing.

Enjoys reading shoujo/yuri manga on her free time.

Because of how much physically active she's Itsuko tends to eat impressive amounts of food and it's not uncommon to see her stuffing herself with a snack every now and then.
