"I have 4 male rats. Mac & Cheese are brothers, as are Roquefort & Bleu. I also have a dog that Sawyer helped me find from the shelter over the summer. What they told me, she is a Border Collie/Catahoula mix. They named her 'Oreo', which... was cute, but I can't stand names like that for dogs. Definitely can't go yelling 'OREO!' down Dog Beach, haha. I named her Korra. She's just a little over a year old.
My parents have a Maremma Sheepdog named Naga who's been the family dog for... 7 years, now? She loves my ratboys! She's very sweet and gentle with them. I like to take her back to my place to stay for the weekend every once in a blue moon. She and Korra get along great together."

Don't let his physique fool you. Danny may be built like a jock and run with the like, but he's got a heart of gold. He can hang with the partiers but always has an eye out for those who can't hold their own. With his older brother being who he is/was, most expect him to follow right in his footsteps. Danny is quite the charmer, but he doesn't use it to sleep around. You ever need someone, whether it be to stand beside you in a fight, need a voice to talk you out of making a bad decision, or something as simple as a hug, he's the guy to call on. It takes a lot to piss this boy off but once you've reached that point with him, you best know how to run and run fast. They say the most dangerous kind of anger comes from those with hearts of gold. Don't let Danny prove that saying right.

He was on the Water Polo team for his freshman and sophomore year, but considering what he wants to do after High School, he switched up his gears and went for the Swim Team. Made the switch easier with the fact his All-Star brother Brandon had also graduated his sophomore year.
Daniel doesn't live at home with his parents but on his own in a studio in Sunset Beach, and holds a job at a skate/surf shop in Huntington. He uses his parent's address to appear to be still living in the same district as the high school so he can continue going to Delbrook. He doesn't mind the drive.
Danny is fluent in English, took two years of French, and is confident he could hold a conversation in the language though he wouldn't say he is 100% fluent in it, and knows a bit of Spanish simply from interacting with his best friend's family and the general public. Daniel is also attempting to learn ASL. This will be his second year taking the language course.
Danny is wanting to get this tattoo done next, though what he has is only a rough sketch, but is currently saving up for that and the lower deck patio bonfire and chair set for their house. He's super excited about both.

Technically you could say she has a nearly full-time job as a creator for TikTok. She makes quite a bit of money and in the last two years she's been doing cosplay has wracked up a total of 4.1M subscribers. She also has a part-time job that she does over at the Lakewood Equestrian Center where both her horses are boarded, and she also teaches beginner lessons there to kids wanting to learn how to ride both Western and English-style riding. She also is in charge of the pony rides for smaller children. She practically insisted on it. Lots of pony ride ponies get mistreated real bad, and she wanted to be sure that theirs were getting the best care possible. They're spoiled little shits.

Sawyer grew up in the Southern California city of San Diego. It wasn't until he graduated from Junior High that he moved from Southern Cali to Palm Beach, Florida with his grandfather where he attended King's Academy for two and a half years. Some time shortly after Winter Break of his Junior year, however, his girlfriend broke things off with him and moved away. Sawyer insisted he couldn't stand to stay at that high school any longer, so he moved back with his parents to Naples, CA, and has been attending Delbrook ever since. Sawyer had previously had a problem with drug addiction. His relationship with Georgie had put that to an abrupt halt but with their relationship having ended, Sawyer has since picked up his old habits again. With his old partying habits coming into play, Sawyer also likes to take part in sleeping around. He doesn't actively look for a partner/partners, but if the opportunity presents itself (when he's drunk or high) he most likely won't say no. His grades have been slowly getting worse, and he has a bit of an attendance problem. We'll see just how this year pans out for him.

Owns a bus pass and takes the public bus to school. He had a truck when he was living with his grandpa but couldn't bring it home with him. Now, he has a truck he is trying to work on that he practically built from the ground up over the summer, but hasn't had any luck thus far getting it up and going. He hopes to eventually drive it to school. On some occasions, he rides to school with Eretria Simmons on her motorbike, but usually wakes up early and takes the first bus of the day to school so he can practice dance or throwing some goals on the lacrosse field.

Takes his friend Eretria up on her tutoring lessons in an attempt to help his grades.
Sawyer has a bit of an issue with drug use, as stated before in his bio, though he tries to hide it from those closest to him. Most especially from his long-time friend/FWB Eretria and his mother.
Having a love for cosplay the way he does, he is the spearhead of the DA Cosplayers club, they meet every other Thursday in the 800 building on the second floor.
Sawyer is a cosplayer and has a TikTok dedicated to his cosplays. Dresses up as Spider-Man, Anakin Skywalker, Nathan Drake, Peter Pan, and a few others.
Makes it a point to attend ComiCon every year it comes into town. He hasn't missed one yet in the last 5 years (yes, even when he was living across the country on the East Coast).
Sawyer has a decent presence on TikTok among the cosplaying community and is most known for his Tom Holland Spiderman cosplay. He gets paid for uploading new content. Brings in quite the amount of cash, most of which he places in a savings account so that when he turns 18 he can move out of the house.
"Delbrook Academy of Long Beach, California - and, of course, home of the Rising Tides..!
Today we welcome back familiar faces to a new year, and with them, a new wave of students into the sandy halls of D.A. Whether you choose to spend your time rushing the field with our five-time National Championship lacrosse team - Go, mighty Tides..! - or rocking out in the quad to the sweet rhythm of the jazz band; with more than enough extracurricular sports, activities, and clubs on offer, you're sure to find the right place for you, surrounded by like-minded peers who, despite differences, come together to create a close-knit and welcoming community.
So now that's out of the way, let's get down to the four-one-one on how your first day at Delbrook is going to go.
Today is all about getting in the groove; and no, I don't just mean with the dance squad or the cheerleaders... No. Today is going to consist of familiarizing yourself or re-familiarizing for our returning tides, with the school. This morning you'll attend your homeroom, where you'll meet your classmates and teacher before heading to the auditorium where our mighty Poseidon - our principal, for those of you who might not know - will address the school and give us a brief rundown on what the new year is going to look like. But once that's done... light that bonfire, and get ready for a luau; because the sharks, along with our amazing seniors, have prepared one hell of a welcome home party for us all..! So be sure to head on out to the lacrosse field and check it out..! There are food trucks, carnival games, rides, and booths- make new friends, meet the clubs, and prove yourself a tide to be reckoned with. And why not..? After all; new year, new you, right?
Let's make this year our most memorable yet!
For Delbrook Academy; your resident chatty dolphin, signing off..!" - Christina Monroe, ASB President

S C H O O L I N F O For those of you attending your first year at Delbrook, inside of your planners on the second page is a campus map to help you get around to your classes. You should also remember some points of interest from Orientation.
There are a large number of clubs on offer at Delbrook. If you can find a chill teacher to host your club during lunch on a specific day (as most clubs only meet once, maybe twice a week) and have at least 3 people in the said club, you can create your very own club!
** I will not be listing any said clubs unless you want certain clubs for your character. The usual clubs are of course up for grabs, or you can create your own club for your character. Has to be something reasonable with an appropriate name. Let me know if you guys have any clubs you want me to specifically list. If you pick out one in particular, your character will have to either be the head of the club, or you will be roleplaying the NPC student that will be. **

Venus for our Rules that she so kindly let me borrow for this, and Vicier for Christina's big welcome announcement. I couldn't have written that better in a million years. Love you girl<3
You'll be excited to hear that we have since dropped our uniform policy and now are a free-dress school, you can thank your ASB President for fighting for you all as fiercely as she did on the matter. Though, of course, there is still no wearing anything gang-related and the girls are still expected to have shorts that reach the length of their fingertips. You are still more than welcome to wear Delbrook Tide spirit-wear, and will still be able to buy said merch at the Student Store. You also will still be expected to wear your school I.D.s around your neck with the Delbrook lanyard provided to you from the moment you walk in the front gate to the moment you leave school grounds. You will not be able to enter or leave school without it, so please don't lose it. It's a ten-dollar fee to replace it.
Delbrook's campus holds approximately forty-five hundred students, with about a thousand and two hundred students in our graduating class alone. Unfortunately, the reality of those numbers is only about nine hundred of you in the class of 2022 will make it to graduation. We'd love to see you all there, but we know that there are different circumstances that end up preventing some of our students from completing their journey. Anywhere between thirty and forty-five students fill each classroom, with anywhere from six to eight classes on your schedule with two to four classes a day. Depending on how you worked your schedules out with your counselors, you might have free periods before or after lunch that provide you a longer lunch break, or towards the end of the day that permits you to be let out of school earlier than most students. Show the front gate security guard your I.D., which has your free periods imprinted on them, and they will let you out.
Our school runs on a blocked schedule where you will attend your Even number classes one day, and the next it will be your Odd number classes. Blue days are Even classes, while Gold days are Odd. Green Days are for all classes. Each class period will run for an hour and a half, with a fifteen-minute break period between your first and second classes before lunch hits, and after lunch will come your third and fourth classes for the day. There will only be a five-minute period between the last two classes for you to get to your designated class, so I suggest you don't dilly-dally.
The standard being held for this role play will be High-Casual, which means at least 2 paragraphs of non-dialogue minimum. However, quality over quantity shall prevail. Sometimes you just feel like you can get your point across without writing a detailed paragraph over how Mary Sue brushes her teeth, and thatβs totally okay.
The maximum time between posts will be 10 days, which can be extended by previous communication with the GMs. If you do not post in IC or OOC by this time, I shall shamelessly spam your DMβs in Discord or Guild PMβs to see whatβs up. Until you are heard back from, your character will be excused from any interactions they may be in to free up the other member's character(s) and put on a hiatus. after a month of inactivity, I will be taking you off the roster altogether. I will have a copy of your CS' saved in my inbox, and will be removing your characters from the character tab.
If you are to be absent from the site, unable to post in the period of time mentioned above, or wish to bow out please let us know in whatever via you prefer (OOC or group PM to the GMs). Itβs not only polite to do so, but it will be much appreciated.
Please check with at least one of the GMs if you plan on making a big event that might change the vibe of the RP or affect the cast in any way. Weβll most likely say yes, but better safe than sorry.
This is a character-driven RP. As such, there is not only a need but a requirement for character interactions. So talkkkkkk. In IC and OOC! Every player and the characters he or she decide to play will have their moments to shine, but interactions help a lot with this. After all, we don't want somebody to be left out.
Please allow at least 2 people to post before making your next one. This includes different characters. If you want to post for a second character, please just use the EDIT button, add it in, and let anyone you might be interacting with know. Collabs are encouraged, but please don't go overboard. We want to have some machine-gun posting too.
Drop your favorite song of the month on the Misc. section of the Character Sheet to make sure youβve read through the rules! <3
Romance is allowed and very much encouraged by the GM and COs, though Guild Rules will apply to the steamier scenes. And please, for the love of the gods, let it happen organically. Don't rush it! We've got all the time in the world. Build up to that shit! ;P
If you encounter any situations with a particular user, either take it to PMs, DMs or let us GM's know to see if the situation can be resolved amicably. I don't enjoy conflict, and would like to keep this a drama-free zone. Please act accordingly, and act your age, people.
Character sheets shall be posted to the Character Tab one post per member. Edit your sheet to add a second character if and when necessary.
There will be a limit of two characters for all. (Yes, I have four characters... but I blame my already dedicated members who will be joining in this RP...sue them me xD) If you see yourself only being able to handle a single character, that is absolutely fine by me. I'm not too worried about girl/guy ratios, so just worry about what you want to make (though if you are interested in keeping the ratio somewhat even, I will post the girl/guy ratio in the character tab for you to check out).
Our characters, much like us members, are not perfect. I do not want any Eddie Haskell's in the roleplay. I'd like to see some characters with some flaws to them.
I will not be accepting Anime FC's. Real-life face claims only who look the part of a high schooler. We will be very strict on faceclaims, so please choose wisely so it doesn't mess up your whole idea for your character if we ask you to change it.
For our new incoming members: Character sheets should be posted into the OOC for any of the three GM's to review, and once you've been given the green light you are more than welcome to move them over to the Character Tab and begin posting at will. Please do not post Works In Progress into the OOC tab. Save them into your inbox in a message to yourself, or in a "character vault" of yours. For my returning loves: You know what to do <3 Just let me know when you post them ^^
Please Note: In this roleplay, Covid-19 is non-existent. We will not be incorporating the tragedies of this past couple years into our roleplay.
I do have another question though, @LegendBegins. How does one go about taking over another name that someone else has? Someone who's been inactive for over 2 years. Can you just simply take over that account, or.. how does that work? Cause I've had my eyes set on the name @Hiraeth for a while, but someone on the site already has that name, though they joined 7 years ago, haven't been seen in 2, and only have 15 posts. Would an account transfer be possible, and their previous posts deleted..?

There are a large number of clubs on offer at Delbrook. If you can find a chill teacher to host your club during lunch on a specific day (as most clubs only meet once, maybe twice a week) and have at least 3 people in the said club, you can create your very own club!
** I will not be listing any said clubs unless you want certain clubs for your character. The usual clubs are of course up for grabs, or you can create your own club for your character. Has to be something reasonable with an appropriate name. Let me know if you guys have any clubs you want me to specifically list. If you pick out one in particular, your character will have to either be the head of the club, or you will be roleplaying the NPC student that will be. **

Venus for our Rules that she so kindly let me borrow for this, and Vicier for Christina's big welcome announcement. I couldn't have written that better in a million years. Love you girl<3
"Delbrook Academy of Long Beach, California - and, of course, home of the Rising Tides..!
Today we welcome back familiar faces to a new year, and with them, a new wave of students into the sandy halls of D.A. Whether you choose to spend your time rushing the field with our five-time National Championship lacrosse team - Go, mighty Tides..! - or rocking out in the quad to the sweet rhythm of the jazz band; with more than enough extracurricular sports, activities, and clubs on offer, you're sure to find the right place for you, surrounded by like-minded peers who, despite differences, come together to create a close-knit and welcoming community.
So now that's out of the way, let's get down to the four-one-one on how your first day at Delbrook is going to go.
Today is all about getting in the groove; and no, I don't just mean with the dance squad or the cheerleaders... No. Today is going to consist of familiarizing yourself or re-familiarizing for our returning tides, with the school. This morning you'll attend your homeroom, where you'll meet your classmates and teacher before heading to the auditorium where our mighty Poseidon - our principal, for those of you who might not know - will address the school and give us a brief rundown on what the new year is going to look like. But once that's done... light that bonfire, and get ready for a luau; because the sharks, along with our amazing seniors, have prepared one hell of a welcome home party for us all..! So be sure to head on out to the lacrosse field and check it out..! There are food trucks, carnival games, rides, and booths- make new friends, meet the clubs, and prove yourself a tide to be reckoned with. And why not..? After all; new year, new you, right?
Let's make this year our most memorable yet!
For Delbrook Academy; your resident chatty dolphin, signing off..!" - Christina Monroe, ASB President
You'll be excited to hear that we have since dropped our uniform policy and now are a free-dress school, you can thank your ASB President for fighting for you all as fiercely as she did on the matter. Though, of course, there is still no wearing anything gang-related and the girls are still expected to have shorts that reach the length of their fingertips. You are still more than welcome to wear Delbrook Tide spirit-wear, and will still be able to buy said merch at the Student Store. You also will still be expected to wear your school I.D.s around your neck with the Delbrook lanyard provided to you from the moment you walk in the front gate to the moment you leave school grounds. You will not be able to enter or leave school without it, so please don't lose it. It's a ten-dollar fee to replace it.
Delbrook's campus holds approximately forty-five hundred students, with about a thousand and two hundred students in our graduating class alone. Unfortunately, the reality of those numbers is only about nine hundred of you in the class of 2022 will make it to graduation. We'd love to see you all there, but we know that there are different circumstances that end up preventing some of our students from completing their journey. Anywhere between thirty and forty-five students fill each classroom, with anywhere from six to eight classes on your schedule with two to four classes a day. Depending on how you worked your schedules out with your counselors, you might have free periods before or after lunch that provide you a longer lunch break, or towards the end of the day that permits you to be let out of school earlier than most students. Show the front gate security guard your I.D., which has your free periods imprinted on them, and they will let you out.
Our school runs on a blocked schedule where you will attend your Even number classes one day, and the next it will be your Odd number classes. Blue days are Even classes, while Gold days are Odd. Green Days are for all classes. Each class period will run for an hour and a half, with a fifteen-minute break period between your first and second classes before lunch hits, and after lunch will come your third and fourth classes for the day. There will only be a five-minute period between the last two classes for you to get to your designated class, so I suggest you don't dilly-dally.
The standard being held for this role play will be High-Casual, which means at least 2 paragraphs of non-dialogue minimum. However, quality over quantity shall prevail. Sometimes you just feel like you can get your point across without writing a detailed paragraph over how Mary Sue brushes her teeth, and thatβs totally okay.
The maximum time between posts will be 10 days, which can be extended by previous communication with the GMs. If you do not post in IC or OOC by this time, I shall shamelessly spam your DMβs in Discord or Guild PMβs to see whatβs up. Until you are heard back from, your character will be excused from any interactions they may be in to free up the other member's character(s) and put on a hiatus. after a month of inactivity, I will be taking you off the roster altogether. I will have a copy of your CS' saved in my inbox, and will be removing your characters from the character tab.
If you are to be absent from the site, unable to post in the period of time mentioned above, or wish to bow out please let us know in whatever via you prefer (OOC or group PM to the GMs). Itβs not only polite to do so, but it will be much appreciated.
Please check with at least one of the GMs if you plan on making a big event that might change the vibe of the RP or affect the cast in any way. Weβll most likely say yes, but better safe than sorry.
This is a character-driven RP. As such, there is not only a need but a requirement for character interactions. So talkkkkkk. In IC and OOC! Every player and the characters he or she decide to play will have their moments to shine, but interactions help a lot with this. After all, we don't want somebody to be left out.
Please allow at least 2 people to post before making your next one. This includes different characters. If you want to post for a second character, please just use the EDIT button, add it in, and let anyone you might be interacting with know. Collabs are encouraged, but please don't go overboard. We want to have some machine-gun posting too.
Drop your favorite song of the month on the Misc. section of the Character Sheet to make sure youβve read through the rules! <3
Romance is allowed and very much encouraged by the GM and COs, though Guild Rules will apply to the steamier scenes. And please, for the love of the gods, let it happen organically. Don't rush it! We've got all the time in the world. Build up to that shit! ;P
If you encounter any situations with a particular user, either take it to PMs, DMs or let us GM's know to see if the situation can be resolved amicably. I don't enjoy conflict, and would like to keep this a drama-free zone. Please act accordingly, and act your age, people.
Character sheets shall be posted to the Character Tab one post per member. Edit your sheet to add a second character if and when necessary.
There will be a limit of two characters for all. (Yes, I have four characters... but I blame my already dedicated members who will be joining in this RP...sue me xD) If you see yourself only being able to handle a single character, that is absolutely fine by me. I'm not too worried about girl/guy ratios, so just worry about what you want to make (though if you are interested in keeping the ratio somewhat even, I will post the girl/guy ratio in the character tab for you to check out).
Our characters, much like us members, are not perfect. I do not want any Eddie Haskell's in the roleplay. I'd like to see some characters with some flaws to them.
I will not be accepting Anime FC's. Real-life face claims only who look the part of a high schooler. We will be very strict on faceclaims, so please choose wisely so it doesn't mess up your whole idea for your character if we ask you to change it.
Character sheets should be posted into the OOC for any of the three GM's to review, and once you've been given the green light you are more than welcome to move them over to the Character Tab and begin posting at will. Please do not post Works In Progress into the OOC tab. Save them into your inbox in a message to yourself, or in a "character vault" of yours.
Please Note: In this roleplay, Covid-19 is non-existent. We will not be incorporating the tragedies of this past couple years into our roleplay.
