Arctale High School
Welcome to high school kids! This is a normal high school with its normal situations. Bullying, cliques, “popular” groups, victims, realizing your sexuality, abuse, trauma pasts, relationships, and much more that you can find everywhere. You just don’t see it out in the open. Don’t worry, they’re there though. That girl you just called a slut for having a kid? She could have been raped. That girl you just called anorexic? Her parents won’t give her food and she got used to it. The kid you just bullied for being overweight? They starve themselves every night. That kid you called “emo” for having scars? They’re getting abused every day. Hmmm~ But you don’t know these things so you’ll continue living your life and wolf will be wolf and sheep will be sheep. That’s fine.
Once again! Welcome to high school you hormone filled students and I look forward to having you guys and girls as students.
This is supposed to be the part of the roleplay where I give an overview of the storyline thus far, but... it just seems like utter bs. I understand it is fun to play along with a story and finish it up, but I think creating your own characters, your own story, your own roleplay, should be fun. I don't want to hold you back from creating the characters that you want. I'm not going to give you guys a character sheet to fill out because I really want you to create your own. I know that what I'm doing is basically give you a playground of endless possibilities, and from what I've seen, that doesn't work out. People usually want a story set up for them so they can write unoriginal BS. I'm probably making everything worse for my cause because I basically insulted all of you, and for that, I am truly sorry.
I really just came up with this idea because High school is a time when teens find out who they are. That is what Erik Erikson basically states with his studies in developmental psychology. He believe that between the ages of about 12 and 19, adolescents should be facing a moral issue between role confusion and identity. I really want this roleplay to write itself sort of to those rules. I know my idea for this was for people to basically write this themselves with nothing holding them back, but I think a great starting point is the confusion teenagers usually have in life.
There is a chance that this whole thing does work out, and that would be wonderful. I see so many roleplays, and even join a few, that only go on for about ten or twenty posts and then die. If it ends up being just me and one other person, I frankly won't care as long as it can last. I think writing is something people should do to express themselves and joining an roleplay, hopefully this one, can help you express yourself and also let this expand to as big as it can get. Now i'm just rambling and I apologize for that. So without further adieu, I present to you a roleplay that might work out... hopefully.

I do not want a bunch of perfect characters~ That’s not how high school or people in general work.
I encourage romance but once it gets to be a little too much, take it to PMs.Thanks~
Curse words are OK for sure because I mean… They’re high school students. Some are going to be cursing.
Dirty jokes in the OOC are fine~ As long as you make us laugh.
I don’t really want any arguments in the OOC. Got a problem? PM me! Don’t worry, I don’t bite. Sometimes~
You have to at least write up a solid paragraph for each post. I don’t want you to feel obliged to write up
a long post but not stuff that you would see in the free rp section.
Anything you add to your CS must be noted in the OOC with a simple “Added to my CS” or something like that.
I may add things here so watch out~
I would like everyone to keep up in the OOC and of course the IC. Post at least once a week in both. If you can.
Explain and tell me if you’re going to be gone for a while. I don’t want people having to stop because of
you.
Have fun~!
This is taking place in lovely Japan~!
Now, for the town. If it's high school, that means secret parties, places to get fake ID's, coffee shops, libraries, and more doesn't it? A high school RP means that the town has to be entertaining for the students. If you ever want to add something to the town, just put it in the OOC and maybe with a photo of the place if you want.
