Bio
I'm EchoicChamber, though I mostly go by Echo.
I'm in my twenties, and returned here on a whim.
I have no idea what's happening at any given moment.

@Sewer Rat Ayyy! I’m glad to hear that you’re interested!
@Vocab Yep, the murk staves are pretty much reversed runes, but there’s actually a reason why they’re off limits (at least initially). I could fill you in, but it will be something revealed in the roleplay regardless. c:
That isn’t to say they won’t be used or anything, either. There’s just a reason in this rp why they don’t tend to be used.
@ouTland01 I’m glad!

@Vocab Nah, I’m not picky with runes or anything! It’s basically a magic system where people are encouraged to kind of mess around and be creative, rather than be restricted by traditional runic systems and all that. The only type of rune that you aren’t allowed to use are murk staves, for reasons that will likely come up in roleplay.

@Prosaic Both are approved!
The letter came in a crisp manilla envelope, scented of perfume and sealed with dark green wax. On the stamp itself was the depiction of a phoenix, wings lifted, leaning ever so slightly as if about to take flight. It belonged to none of the more prominent mage houses, that was for sure. A letter from them would have been recognized as quickly as the face of the president or Queen herself, or, in a more mundane comparison, the mascot of a prominent fast food chain. However, wherever it came from, it was addressed to both you and your family alike, and carried a note just as plain as the paper that had carried it.
In neat, swirling ink, the letter read,
”To Whom it May Concern,
After several years of preparation, we are pleased to announce the official opening of the Marchand School of Sorcery. Here, students (aged 14 to 18) will be able to receive a full, in-depth magical education- regardless of background, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or primary. Not only will they learn how to better control and wield their preexisting and steadily growing magical development, but they will also be guided through the delicate process of harnessing their Secondary abilities, become educated in the history of mages, lineages, and magical theory, and learn the basics of self-defense- all in a controlled and nurturing environment. In addition, students will be learning from professors specifically selected by the Council of the Eight Powers, and are some of the best of the best in their respective crafts.
Due to the extended period of time in which pupils are expected to attend Marchand (see the curriculum for details), the building offers various facilities and accommodations to keep the students comfortable. These include- but are not limited to- furnished dormitories, a cafeteria, gymnasium, pool, library, and common room. Students are assigned dorms automatically, and are allowed to use the facilities as they please- within reason, of course.
There will be an open house on the 4th to meet the professors, and to decide if Marchand will be a suitable environment for your child.
Regards,
The Marchand Staff.”
Enclosed with the letter were several other sheets and forms, paperclipped into a carefully folded stack.
Hello, lovely people of the OOC forums! I’m Echo, coming to you with a potential reboot of one of my old roleplays.
In a passing glance, Marchand is a pretty simplistic roleplay- another magical high school, where students of all magical types and backgrounds can gather, make friends, form relationships, and learn how to control and better harness their powers. In addition, there is also a fair bit of lore surrounding the war that happened sometime before Marchand came into existence, and an underlying plot that you will have to join in order to properly discover. Marchand itself is set in a basic “humans don’t know about magic” type setting, with mages having organized systems across the globe, a governing body (The Eight Powers), and, in some cases, facades to keep humankind, for the most part, in the dark when it comes to mages and sorcery. This may seem a bit Harry Potter esque, but unlike a roleplay modelled after the good old Potterverse, this roleplay includes focus on the characters learning proper hand-to-hand combat, a distinctive lack of wands, robes, and real “spells”, and some other good stuff.
What you can expect from Marchand:
- Opportunities for in-depth character development and discovery.
- A world specifically built to allow any characters within reason to fit in and have fun.
- A fairly laidback GM, open to suggestions and decently understanding when issues come up (at least, I like to hope so, haha. ^^;).
- A variety of planned events sprinkled throughout the roleplay, along with the flexibility for even more.
What we expect from you:
- Reliability. Please don’t join and just never post, or claim that you will post in a certain time frequently and never follow through. While I understand that things can get in the way, please tell me if you need more time, and post often if you can.
- Creativity. Don’t steal anyone else’s concepts, ideas, or the like without asking. However, if you have any plot or character or ideas, feel free to toss them at any fellow GMs I assign and I so we can look over them. Still, feel free to offer up any suggestions, concepts, potential character sub plots, or ideas for preexisting history between characters that you might come up with.
- Maturity. Our characters can be clawing each other’s throats out IC, but outside of the roleplay, everyone is expected to be at the very least cordial to one another, if not amiable. In addition, while the RP is gonna be pretty light hearted (initially, at the very least), be warned that there are a few topics that might or will come up through a magical high school that you will be expected to deal with.
If all this interests you in any way, feel free to drop a PM if you have any questions, comments or concerns, and I’ll get to it as soon as we can. Or, if it suits you better, you can just put it here- I’ll check the forum as often as possible to properly address things. Either way, thank you for reading, and hope to see you soon!
