@The One He may be thinking (not seriously ) that his shampoo is attracting mythical creatures so that that seems like the opposite of what he should do XD

The Ordinary Mythical Academy

Leval Lamrue

@DragonKingUk@PharaohAtem@The One

As Leval waited for the beings that he was hoping were not, at this particular moment, hungry, tha air around dropped to a freezing temperature he could feel in his bones. The grass in the field around became coated in a light frost in under a second as the sudden temperature change affected the air as Leval’s teeth began a chattering dance. Leval’s eyes diverted to the large blue bird-like creature who had called itself “Winter.” But a voice and sudden appearance of an animated ball of light a few inches from his nose startled Leval. He took an instinctive step back, but slipped on frost cover grass, leg slipping out from under him. He had let go of his staff to bow before the two hmythical creatures and thus fell on the ground onto his rear. The ball turned into giant smiling face similar to an emoji in Leval’s perception of the being.

Wary, pride also stinging slightly, he rose up to his feet’s again dusting the small amount of ice off his cloak. A younger girl wearing glasses that would certainly difficult to see out of due to an intricate etching upon the actual glass part of the glasses. She praised his good fortune with mythical creatures, introduced herself, and explained the spiritual being, Soul, who now appeared to be a hand, not helping Leval’s perception of him as some kind of sentient emoji. ’She may be right though. I didn’t even know that all of these creatures existed. And now they seem to be lining up to say hello. Maybe they are actually harmless?’

Leval reaches out tentatively to the hand ghost, Soul, and shook it quickly, hands now bright pink from the exposure to the source of the frigid air. ”Hello there, I am Leval Lamrue. I am sorry for my reaction you just caught me a little overwhelmed. Is Soul your actual chosen name or just the classification of what you are?”

Leval was finally starting to relax when giant blasts of air came from the sky and yet another large shadow blocked from the sun from his view. Leval looked up at first in exasperation and then in horror as he saw an elephants head swelled down in a single bite and it’s trunk slurped up like a noodle. Bones did not seem to give the being any trouble whatsoever as it somehow changed into a human form. ”Harmless my ass! Danger Will Robinson! Danger! Where the hell did the rest of it’s body go?’ The creature, who very aptly named in Leval’s opinion, called itself Beast. Leval looked around him, besides the... maybe human girl with the scratched glasses, he was surrounded on all sides by mythical creatures. And some elephant blood.

Another being came out of the sky, this time a robot/cyborg/Android humanoid figure. Leval’s eye twitched. He pointed in a random direction away from the group and very calmly stated. ”I am going over there now.” He pulled his staff out of the ground and walked in a somewhat dazed fashion about 30 feet away, mumbling slightly in a nonsensical way under his breath.”That’s too many. Why didn’t they fly to the academy? Is it my shampoo?”

@The One I cant see invisible people. It sorta goes with the invisibility

Leval Lamrue

@DragonKingUk

Leval was having a pleasant doze now, face warm from the sun, his staff in this perfect position to be functional and comfortable. A shadow moved overhead blocking out the sunshine, Leval grumbled slightly, opening one eye to look up at whatever was casting the shade. It looked as though some type of blue bird was flying up there getting in the way of his light. He eyed it curiously as it started to descend, it almost seemed as though the bird were getting bigger and bigger and... Leval jumped up, brain now working in overdrive to catch up to the situation at hand. As the bird grew clearer, he could see that it was no bird at all, it had the general shape but its body was made up of giant crystalline shapes that could have almost been made of ice. When the bird finally landed, the earth shook with its massive weight. Leval, unbalanced by movement below him, grabbed a hold of his staff, still buried in the earth, to steady himself. The giant crystal bird whatever, then began to speak! 'Is this some sort of test? he thought to himself staring at the talking bird in some wild eyed disbelief. While it spoke, he rose his free hand spreading out threads of magic, probing for some sort of illusion. Finding none, he was forced to accept the reality of the situation was that a giant crystal bird was going to be his fellow student. Leval cleared his throat, briefly wondering how it would fit in a desk before replying. Hello there, nice to meet you Winter, my name is-"

He never got the chance to finish that particular sentence as the sound of massive leathery wings beating against the sky entered his ears. Leval froze up, turning around slowly, one hand still clutched on the hook of his staff. Two heads. Two heads with two fang filled jaws. Two heads with two fang filled jaws with one body. Two heads with two fang filled jaws with one body with arms and legs ending in razor sharp claws. 'IS THIS THE TEST?? A dragon. A DRAGON. Ancient behemoth monsters that were the undisputed kings of lore and legend, inspiring a near infinite number of stories with their power and greed. And there is one flying right towards... me.' Leval looked up at the sky and raised his arms, slightly bent at the sky as if asking the universe what he had done that demanded this level of reckoning. The great beast landed against the ground fluidly, again causing the earth to shake below it. Leval, now somewhat used the minor earthquakes caused by massive mythological creatures, bent his knees slightly and kept his balance. The Dragon named itself a fellow student, much to Leval's bafflement and asked their names. 'Exactly what is it that these giant, ancient creatures are expecting to learn from this school? Mathematics?!'

Still he had his family's honor to uphold, combined with his desire not to be a crystal skewered roast kebab, he thought that politeness may be the way to continue this conversation. He bowed low to each creature in turn. "Hello to each of you. My name of Leval of the family Lamrue. Forgive my surprise, I did not expect to see any of my classmates yet and was napping." 'Or so large.' he thought to himself. He was grateful that his cloak hid the slight trembling in his knees. "It is my pleasure to meet the both of you. Drumdawn, this is Winter."

Hey I’m having some trouble telling who is in the field meeting place versus the grand hall at the academy itself?

The Ordinary Mythical Academy

Leval Lamrue

Leval closed the door of his beaten up, old family car, placing the letter with his map on the seat beside him. He looked back at the rest of the his family, gathered on the lawn. There his mother waved him on last tearful goodbye and his father gave him a proud nod, the rest of his large family yelling out their farewells. Leval gave one final wave of his hand, started the car, and headed out onto the road. As he rounded the corner he sniffled slightly and rubbed at his eyes with one hand. Luckily he had plenty of time to get himself composed. The field indicated on his map was only a few hours away by car and it would be easy enough to get there quickly. He took his car up onto the highway and, with a slight wave of his hand, conjured up another rider in the car to sit in the passenger's seat. That done, he moved past the busy single driver lanes and entered into the relatively faster carpool lane to his destination. His eyes kept glancing to his rear view mirror with the packed gifts of his family, gratitude mixed with nervousness coloring his thoughts. 'How on earth did I get accepted into such a place? I didn't even send an application...'

He turned the radio on to one of the countless top 40 stations hoping the usual repetitiveness would help him keep his mind off it. But still doubts plague his mind. What if they had accepted him as a mistake? Or what if he got there and they decided that he wasn't good enough? Would he really be able to keep up with the other students? He had heard stories of some of the beings that attended the schools. Fantasy creatures of all types out of both legend and nightmare resided in its walls. Even the place itself seemed like it must be incredibly powerful. According to the maps he had received the academy resided in the clouds themselves. Leval was at a loss to explain how even that feat was done, let alone how it was kept hidden. These thoughts kept him occupied as the miles dwindled before him. Taking the carpool lane ended up being a wise decisions, he cut almost a full hour off of his estimated travel time before arriving at his destination. He parked at a small lot just off the side of the road.

He gulped slightly, then slapped his hands to both sides of his face. "Okay Leval, you got this. You hear me? You-Can-Do-This!" His attempt at self-cheer-leading surprisingly successful, he exited the car and grabbed his things. He donned the black cloak his mother had given him, feeling its soft weight on his shoulders, proud of his family's symbol emblazoned on the back and second, smaller one over his heart. Bag in one hand, staff in the other he walked towards the field. He was rather early, as only a few others seemed to have arrived. Some of the figures were obviously not humanoid, and despite knowing that would be the case from the letter, it was still mind boggling. Deciding it would better to ease himself into the strangeness of the situation rather than deal with it all at once, he pushed his staff down into the soft grass and dirt of the field until it was secure then sat down, resting his back upon it. The sun was out, the sky blue, and the clouds were making interesting shapes. As he sat in a slight doze, content to wait, he idly wondered what the wifi situation would be like in a school in the sky. Cinder and Ash, the butterflies that were always with him flew around him, occasionally fluttering down to nibble at something or other in the flowers.

A team of Noobs

Clyde Jacobs

Interacting with: @SirSqueakalot91

The Lyft driver had mercifully fallen quiet after his first attempts at conversation driving away from the airport had failed. Clyde glanced at him from the backseat and frowned slightly, tugging lightly at the ends of his shirt in an effort to make himself look more presentable. Whatever casual conversation they would have had died before exiting Clyde’s lips as he attempted to suppress the butterflies flocking to his stomach. His eyes fell once more to the map laid out on the open seat next to him from The Email, noting that it was not too much further now. His right shoe betrayed him by tapping softly against the floor, shortly followed by the left, traitors both.

”Hey man, you can let me out here. I can walk the rest of the way.”

The car pulled over in a gentle stop, letting out Clyde who quickly pulled out all his luggage and waved the car off with a quick thank you. He pulled out the phone and waited for the buzz of an incoming notification, giving the driver five stars and a little more tip than Clyde’s allowance would warrant, more to assuage Clyde’s guilt over his rudeness than anything else. Careful not to dirty the new suit his father had worked several weeks of overtime for to give him for this event, Clyde began to make his way towards the destination The Email had indicated.

His feet moved upon the earth, but Clyde’s thoughts were in space. Specifically, whatever part of space Savior may, even now, be on his way back from. The world needed protection,that much was clear. The stakes were high, and the old heroes needed fresh blood. It was even rumored that Lady Gaia herself might be attending this school. Thinking back to the televised broadcast of the birth of her abilities, Clyde wondered again why he had been summoned as well.

“Location, location, location” chuckled a young man close by. The strange phrase broke Clyde out of his own head and could not help but glance at the source of the strange utterance. That was the moment Clyde recognized the map in the man’s hands and noticed the luggage he had with him. Turning to stop in front of the potential future classmate, he pulled out his map with the schools logo emblazoned on the front so the stranger could see it.

”Hey. You gonna be one of my teammates?” I’m Clyde.”

@The One Dumb questions do get dumb answers after all XD

The Ordinary Mythical Academy

@EchoicChamber I would go with the second as well since there are a lot of other demons here for the character to play off of. Plus, I admit, I enjoy the dissonance of the laidback demon military figure. I would put Dawn's brother as option two just cause DRAMA.

@The One What is the sound of one hand clapping?

The Ordinary Mythical Academy

@The One@PharaohAtem See that would just trigger Leval’s natural curiousity. He would probably consider asking it to clap to solve a longstanding philosophical question.

@EchoicChamber
Oh for sure! Post em or PM them
