Of course he wouldn't be left to die in peace, and some interloper had to intervene to 'save' him. What did the self-righteous bastard care that he wanted to die, huh? It was his choice, and he had decided a week ago to do it, and no one would stop him! Glaring hatefully at the other man before him, Julien took a step back towards the railing of the roof and sneered at the darker haired male, his eyes full of bitterness, pain and hate as he did so.
“This is none of your business what I do.” What his last words as he nimbly hoisted himself up the flimsy obstacle to his final freedom and threw himself headfirst into the night sky, a sense of exhilaration taking hold of him as he plummeted at breakneck speed towards his doom, adrenaline filling his vein and sending him into a bliss that no drugs or sexual partner ever could. Letting out one last laugh, feeling free, he get ready for the shattered impact when he felt himself slow down and stop in midair.
Pure white feathers filled his vision as a pair of warm and strong arms pulled him against and equally solid muscled chest. He had failed... but how? How could his fall be stopped, and who... or rather what had save him?
Glaring bitterly at his 'Savior', he was put face to face with the man who tried... and succeeded to stop him before the rush of adrenaline stopped and the young man succumbed to oblivion...

Forum: Casual Interest Checks
I want to run a social rp where your characters would try to make it big in a complicated and ruthless society through a combination of slyness, wiles, courage, intrigues, guts, prowess and all of such things you can thing would help them go upwards from mere Va-Nu-Pieds to, perhaps, the leaders of their nation.
For that to happens I need two things: some interest and a choice:
Alternate Historical or Futuristic?

Hikikomori Virtual Academy is:
- Accepting Applications
- A mix of social simulation, RPG and Academy roleplay.
- Allowing a maximum of two character per players, with a maximum of ten characters in the game.
- Set in 2076 and follow the lives of Hikikomori in Japan.
- Mature, but that doesn't mean porn!
- Accepting all kind of characters, from any background, sexual preferences, ages or genders.
It is the year 2076, and the realm of the virtual and the internet has drastically progressed the last fifty years, to the point where, in Japan, the first entirely digital academy has opened its digital door this year to the growing population of young hermits in the capital and the countryside. You are one of these social outcasts, dubbed hikikomori, and have been taking refuge in your room for quite some time. Will this be the key to getting out of your self imposed slump?
The entry to this new institution is simple; have a working computer, an access to the internet, a virtual reality helmet and finally buy and download the file. Once there, you will be able to create your avatar and be placed in your first evaluation test to see where you stand in our premium education.
This could be the chance of a lifetime, will you take it?
Hikikomori Virtual Academy, or HVA for short, is a brand new attempt at bringing education and socialization to the growing population of hikikomori in Japan and, hopefully, bring them back into the fold of society. A virtual construct made for the best technology could offer, it is so lifelike that the users are able to touch, hear, see and even taste this virtual reality as it was made of physical components instead of a clever manipulation of bodily chemicals. Even more remarkably, however, is the ability to temporarily bring back lost senses or limbs within the confines of this make-believe academy.
Created by Kurozawa Enterprises and set upon the biggest server in the world, this marvel of technology is reachable with an access to internet and a Virtual Helmet, the latest in gaming controls. Half a game, half a formidable opportunity, the Academy is set to bring enlightenment of the mind and spirit by stimulating the fancy and training it's user into a healthy lifestyle, that it may be physical, mental or social.
The landscape and campus ever changing to fit the whims and needs of its users, the entirety of possible areas has been designed by the best architects of the world, and possess over a thousands different rooms and area as well as lifelike weather, temperature control and soundtracks. Once can change the sounds to a soothing or even energetic music by merely stating so, the same going for the world seen from windows or in the distance and the weather.
The courses, ranging from introductory to doctorate-level, are tailored for each student via a series of evaluation and questionnaire, providing each students with a challenging and stimulating experience, whatever path may it lead them to.
From High School age to the Golden Years, each student is welcome as long as they provide effort in their studies and are not harmful to other students. Upon first login, each student will be provided with the choice of a Persona, complete with an alias to promote anonymity and a carefree experience for all. A series of Tutorial and Examinations will be given at either need or demand, and Physical, Mental or Social Points will be handed for each good or exceptional effort made. Those points will be used to reach a set quota of grades, access more complicated courses, unlock special events and even gain special ability through their sacrifice.
While the general appearance of a student on the outside world is expected to be average or even bland, the Persona can take any humanoid form, from bright pink hair to pointed ears. Likewise, with enough practice, a student can far outperform their usual body in feats of athleticism, and thus should be careful when exiting the Academy as to not injure themselves in overconfidence.

November 6th, 1902,
Saint-Vincent Asylum, New York City.
The night was chilly as, one by one, a small group of young people made their way inside a large and dark asylum into the night. Hours passed between each arrivals, yet the inhabitants of the makeshift Institution of 'finer' learning were restless, as they often were in that particular month. You see, that month had always a strange tendency of bringing about new faces to Saint-Vincent Asylum. That is may be the encroaching cold or the depressing death of nature, this time of the year provoked shortness of tempers and a propensity for violent crime, to which this establishment flourished upon.
Tonight was particularly so on that front, and no less than four new recruits had arrived, all shivering and with a hunger for blood and death in their young eyes. The Hall of the Asylum was lit with darkly glowing gas lamps, and the whole room smelled of soap and wax that did not manage to hide the stench of blood and death that permeated the whole manor house. A particular door leading to the basement was even tinted with red, and faint screams could still be heard from the depths beyond it.
What attracted the most stares, however, was the tall and stately man in elegant finery that stood leaning against the imposing wooden balustrade belonging to even more impressive stairs leading up into the darkness. That man was called Lucius Mortensen, and was the proprietor, director and headmaster of Saint-Vincent Academy and Asylum.
Despite his reputable appearance, this man was a dangerous one, capable of the most inhuman acts and responsible for countless sordid crimes since he was old enough to walk. This man, in fact, was not one at all, but was in fact the son of the Devil himself, and he was sent long ago to the mortal realm to spread death and damnation upon the world.
Saint-Vincent was merely the latest of these attempts of making the world a darker place...

Yes, there is room for all of you :)!
Feel free to discuss character concepts here, if you wish, as a lively IntCheck is one who get enough attention to go as an OOC :)!
