@Camerch - Ah cool, got your sheet! Heeeey, a dude with relatives from Cinders Landing. Oh ho ho, I shall have fun with this! What MegaCorp your folks slaving away for? But yeah, looks good. Accepted.
And more discussion points.

@BulletToothTony - Sup. Think up a character and toss it up.

@Lord Santa - Don't worry too much, after all you did get the character sheet in. Ah one of those self-loathing Nerds, those are neat. Especially when they go about against their patrons every now and again. Oh he'll be fun. Accepted

@Rick Sanchez - In the metaphorical road terms, the step upon the road has been taken, but not traversed. So for adding other characters, wait until various new posts have been done and as you mentioned other CSes added.
Sun Ridge Boarding Institution, 12:00 PM.

Official Start of Winter Break.


Outside the South Entrance

The Winter season had arrived once more to the Sun Ridge Boarding Institution. Of course, looking at the surroundings it certainly didn't feel like a typical winter. The weather was warm, and there was not a single cloud in the sky. The golden rays of the glorious sunshine glimmered through the bright blue sky. Some nearby sand that stood against the glistening white stone pathway of the South Entrance held a few lizards that were slowly retreating to the shadows, out of sight from the eyes of the larger creatures that would surely wish to devour them.

As it was Winter Break, the Cliques would not need to waste their time on tedious classwork. Their valuable time could now be devoted to what truly mattered; after all during the breaks was when the War always truly sparked up. And more importantly, this would serve as a period of time when they could engage in more Power Plays and bring great fortune to their respective cliques. A breeze went by and whipped some sand across, alongside a stray tumbleweed. Some would say that this particular event in the scenery of the school would represent the lull before the great shoot-outs to come, while others -particularily the Nerds-, would claim that it was simply put a meteorological effect that occurred due to the rules of nature. However, what mattered about this particular scene was the fact that it meant their was a wind providing a decent breeze.

Of course, old and new blood would be fueling the rising Clique War. Yes, some new blood would arrive this day. The Sun Ridge Boarding Institution engaged in a predictable practice; during the first Winter and Summer breaks, they would bring new students by bus to get them settled and used to the surroundings. No one was sure why they did this, though many have said it was due to being paid extra for moving them to the 'Neutral Dorms'. However as countless janitors and Prefects will admit to, the Neutral Dorms get, well simply put in a euphemism, messy. And thus, the students quickly search for a Clique to join, or are drafted into a Clique and taken to a relative safety there. Of course, some stay in those 'Neutral Dorms' but as mentioned before, they do get messy.

And there was another strange practice that Administration engaged in during this period of time. Many teachers and staff decided to leave and take their vacation during this time-frame. After all, they didn't particularly care or want to be around the students at their rowdiest. This of course was no skin off the Cliques bones, and they did appreciate the lowered guard from the Administration.

Approaching the South Gateway, a rather thick section of iron with the school's motto gleaming above its archway, was the school bus. It was hovering ever so slightly above the ground with a red glow underneath. Notably it was a triple deckered bus, which helped for transporting the larger of the fresh batch of students. The driver of the bus, was a slightly amusing individual, if only for the fact that he was a transluscent ghost that was managing to physically drive the bus. As the bus got close towards the gate, the driver slowly parked it in front of the gate which began creaking open.

Waiting for the fresher students was one of the Prefects, the students who betrayed the way of the Clique for the sweet devil's bargain of the Administration.

The current Prefect stood in the middle of the white stone path that was attached to the gate. behind him, in the close but distant distance was the Administration Building. The Prefect stood at about 5'6", and wore a light blue suit. The most notable feature about him was the fact that he had large cream color ram-horns that were on the sides of his head, and that his head had rather large wooly puffs of black fur that functioned as essentially hair.

The boy idly stared annoyed that he was assigned to have to give the spiel to the new meat. He pulled out a single biscuit stick that he kept in his coat-pocket and munched on it. But of course, while mundane, it was an easy job rather than having to deal with those actually experienced with the institution.

The Cafeteria

As for many of the students who've been here, many were out and about for planning. Though, due to the time of day many of the various students were in the cafeteria. Illuminated by the fluorescent lighting, here was one of the few neutral zones, that weren't immediately turned into a vicious Hellscape where few could manage to survive. This was due to the Prefects who were stationed here, and the fact the Administration held an actual interest in keeping this area safe. No one knew for sure why they preferred to keep the cafeteria safe, when they actively allowed the 'neutral dormitories' to be a horrific war-zone. Some say it was due to a mighty treasure that the Administration kept secret. Others say that held a tactical position to the Administration, in regards to the building it was hosted in. Others say that it was due to the constant and ever present 'Cafeteria Skirmishes'. Even with the Prefects guarding it, the Cafeteria did find itself the host of very dangerous battles. Many still speak in awe and hushed whispers over the 'Foodfight of Two Fridays Ago'. And even still, others had no idea why nor did they care for an explanation.

Off to the upper right corner was the territory claimed by the Preppies. It had the best spot for air conditioning and was rather close to the cafeteria line. Which of course didn't matter to them, as they always had a few artisan chefs on hand to prepare them meals. Of course the little people could not see them as their section was cut off by an installed Egyptian cotton curtain. Outside the curtain was a select staff of butlers just eying the miscreants, to make sure only those worthy would try getting in.

In the upper left corner was the territory claimed by the Entertainers. From this section came much laughter and merriment, as they were practicing out their materials. An Orcish member was busy sticking a spoon on her nose and a fork in her ear. Another was busy practicing juggling with a salt and pepper shaker, and an empty bowl. The festivities continued, as a Prefect eyed down upon them with his red compound eyes.

The lower left corner was being occupied by the Punks. Many of whom had their feet kicked up on the table and were just glaring at random things. One of the punks at the table was busy with some hair gel to maintain appearances. Others were continuing to mark the tables with the cafeteria knives and sharpies. After all they needed to continue to tag their territory.

The lower right corner was being occupied by the Nerds. Across the cafeteria benches was a collection of books set up to cover sheets. Around these sections the sound of dice clanking against the table was heard. While other nerds were busy reading various comicbooks. While others were scrawling notes on various papers.

In the middle were the Bullies and the Jocks. The Jocks were on the right side, while the Bullies were on the left. Both sides were keeping a close eye on the other. After all, they couldn't let their guard down, not even in the neutral sanctity of the Cafeteria. On the side of the Bullies, a behemoth of a troll covered in moss was watching over the Jocks. The Jocks meanwhile had a minotaur dressed in a white track-suit watching over the Bullies.

The day was still young, and was going to be teeming with adventure and excitement. Who knew what events were going to unfold this day?
@Kalimah - Oh, I shall have fun tossing weird and hard to find stuff Steven Diggs is gonna use. He looks like a rad dude, should help out in bringing down THE MAN. ACCEPTED

Quick Edit: Aaaand the first IC is up. It should serve as a suitable starting point. I'll get more details and stuff, as things progress. Aaaand, LET THE GAMES BEGIN!
Welp, I accidentally did something here for an inane reason, which can be chalked down to me not paying attention.

So, I shall use this space to once more say feel free to share your comments/questions/concerns! Also, I shall just ask how is everyone doing? Everyone doing well and what not?

Alright, back to a few more things to address.

@Kaalee - So only sight based illusions then? Okie dokie. Hm, so going with that classic. Right, so can it can be stopped by you know the whole plugged ears and using will-power to push through it? If it doesn't just mess up. Hm I suppose it shall be fine. I'll probably keep an eye on it. Accepted

@The Errorist - Right, just wanted to ask that out of curiosity! Thanks for answering.

@Descartes - Hey! A dude, and it's a dwarf! One who can't grow a beard and has thus brought a horrible and great shame upon his clan. You know his entire ancestral line is frowning upon this. Out of curiosity, gonna ask if the sentient stone can move or talk. Accepted

Ah, well looks like this is gathering people. Hm, yeah I'm gonna post the introductory in character post later this day for sure.
Alright! My inquiries have been answered, and since they were answered in bullet point format, I'mma do the same in response to each part.

1.) Mmmkay, so compatibility can lead to fun stuff.
2.) Gotcha. Head-shots are nasty business.
3.) And okie dokie. Also I don't care if Unlives is a word or not, as that is a fairly good description for it.

Anyhow, if you wouldn't mind just noting those in your character sheet, that'd be dandy.
Cool! Even more people. I suppose I'll need to establish the starting IC post soon-ish! Keyword on that being soon-ish.

@DarkFey - Oh ho ho, I shall derive amusement from bringing up that age at various points. I suppose the cold damp subterranean tunnels are preferred over the nicer warmed ones, costs less tribute. ...Or something. Right, so I've got a few questions on the immortality. Can other parts be used to replace the original stuff, say if the current ones get reduced to chunky bits of salsa, and would destroying the head just end them or every part? And, if a body part is removed, are the mobile in trying to search for the body or just immobile? Gonna Accept, but I need to know those details to confirm. (Also apologizes for not getting to it earlier)

@Kaalee - Oh moving with that tail is gonna be FUN! Anyhow, I presume the illusions are mostly visual based, as the beholder is gonna see the woman of their dreams? And what does the 'Siren Song' do exactly? I would need to know that before I can make a proper call, I hope you understand. But hey, Preppy that can cook. Should be fun.

@The Errorist - Aaah, no need to apologize for being late for the sheet. Ah that tail striking action, and the escapist bent. Hm, just gonna ask out of curiosity how long it usually takes for them to get out of bonds, like some good natural rope. And a sugar addiction you say, you know they have people for that... Accepted

Aaaand while not a character, but stuff to note @Camerch - Humans can totally have powers! So yeah, go for a human with powers if you want. Make something that amuses you. As for weapons, you don't really want to carry real weapons, as that will make the Administration really have to act, which is not good for you. You can try to hide and be sneaky with weapons, but I'd recommend going with like Sling-shots, Yo-yos, Stink Bombs, you know fun childish fare that won't cause too much trouble to save your own skin. I hope that helps answer your question a bit.

But yeah, feel free to bring up other comments/questions/concerns. Glad to see this is gathering interest, it is nice.
@Lord Santa- Depends on what style he plays (yugi)yo. Really make up whatever amuses you as a power-set and I'll look at it.

@RomanAria- Go forth and toss a sheet up!

Quick Edit: Ha! Just as I got this out good work Dark Fey, I'll be going over it.
