If one were to describe Romi, they might say that she always has her head in the clouds. Or that she's an aloof asshole who is realistically honest with her friends, and cares little in the way of sugarcoating things. Though, if they were to dig below that surface, they would find a girl who is far more intelligent and creative than people give her credit for. Romi refuses to acknowledge her own intelligence if it is brought up, and truth be told, she'd rather people not know of her book-smarts. She doesn't like the spotlight or when people expect far too much from her, and has always expected to get what she has by being the underdog.
Romi's appearance is a strange one- bordering alternative at times. Her natural hair color is a dark auburn, but it is currently dyed a bright green- much to her father's chagrin. She has a set of dimple piercings that accent one of her features she always thought was cute. She's never spent a lot of time in one place, and while she does have a sense of wonderlust, she longs desperately for a place to lay down roots, but this is a well kept secret. She's always been the ghost in all of her friend groups- fitting in, but not really with pretty much everyone.

Strengths ➽➽➽ Hex- Being able to form blasts of energy- usually in the form of a black mist around her palms and wrists. The longer she uses this ability, the more draining it becomes on her body. If all of her aura is used, she will fall unconscious until the energy is replaced- whether from eating or from rest or both. ➽➽➽ Aura Detection- Romi can see the color and strength of other people's auras. Due to her empathic nature, she is also able to sense other people's emotions through these auras. ➽➽➽ Thief- If she touches someone else with magical abilities, she may be privy to taking their magical abilities as well as their life energy. The victim of this will be left a bit nauseous, but otherwise unharmed. The stolen powers are always returned to their owner.
Weaknesses ➽➽➽ Romi has an increased metabolism of that of at least double that of a normal person. She can eat a large meal, and still be hungry in a few hours. She can eat anyone under the table and never gain weight from it. This, however, can become debilitating if not sated quickly. ➽➽➽ Her hex has a tendency to burn her if she expends too much of it or cannot control it.

♥ Likes ☒ Dislikes ✧ Quirks
♥ Quiet afternoon train rides, thrift stores, black coffee, vintage clothes, comfortable, oversized sweaters, autumn, spicy food, bullet journals, scrapbooks ☒ Spending too much money on food or clothes, lettuce, expensive coffee, summer, heels ✧ ✧ ✧ Romi and her father have spent the majority of her life traveling the world, and she has ticket stubs and maps of the most memorable places stored in a scrapbook that is incredibly important to her. ✧ ✧ ✧ As much as she loves traveling, she wants more than anything to find a place to settle down and make actual friends. ✧ ✧ ✧ She and her father have had to pinch pennies her whole life, and even now when she doesn't have to, she prefers to be thrifty.
t r í v í α ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔ ➽➽➽ She's always preferred black coffee over something that is expensive or far too sweet. ➽➽➽ Her father gave her the nickname Romi when she was a child. ➽➽➽ She's never felt the need to dress herself up, and is far more content wearing a pair of old, patched up jeans and an oversized sweatshirt that she got on clearance. The only thing she's ever considered spending a lot of money on was her hair and piercings. ➽➽➽ She can speak three languages (English, French, and Chinese), and has an interest in learning many more because from her experience, it's always been easier to live in a place if she knew how to speak the language. ➽➽➽ For many years, her scrapbook has been her only real place of solace. ➽➽➽ Repeated a grade. Not because she's an idiot or doesn't care about her grades, but rather because she received an academic scholarship from Arcadia, and convinced her father she wanted to experience going to school with other girls her own age. ➽➽➽ Romi is an empath, and has been since birth. Even though she knows nothing about her powers, she knows that she can tell how another person feels- especially if she's close to them. ➽➽➽ Romi eats at least 3000-5000 calories a day and has never gained a single pound. ➽➽➽ She keeps a pendant that was given to her by her mother before her father took custody of her tucked underneath her shirt at all times.

Romi has lived a mostly reserved life after she began living with her father at the age of five. He claims that her mother ran off with another woman and left the two of them behind. The two of them have moved from place to place every few years, and she became used to being on the go- as if they were running from someone or something. It was always somewhere that was crowded with public transit, and she grew used to taking the train or bus on her own everyday. At one point in her life, the two of them had even lived in Hong Kong for whatever business her father was a part of before moving back to the states. He became a helicopter parent that pushed the girl to do better, and as a result she allowed her grades to remain average. His helicopter parenting style gave her little privacy, and she found herself turning away from him, and further into her own interests. She told him very little for fear that he would try to push her into something she didn't like.
Then, they moved to San Junipero. It just felt right to be there. Her father had wanted to pack up months ago, but Romi dug in her heels- saying the two of them had never really settled anywhere, and that she needed to experience school with other people- even if it was just an all girl's school. She wanted the two of them to actually stay in one place long enough for her to make friends this time. He told her that if she could prove herself and receive an academic scholarship for Arcadia that he would allow them to remain there until she was ready for college, and so she worked hard until she got what she wanted to. The school told her that she would have to repeat a grade to start school there, but she honestly didn't mind that. It was a boarding school, and so the only time that her father got to see her in person was on the weekends- which was a sweet relief for her.
➽➽➽ This RP is NOT first come, first served. There are only a few available character slots, and I will be choosing the ones that I feel fits best with the rp. ➽➽➽ Inspirations for this are W.I.T.C.H and RWBY ➽➽➽ Our characters are witches. The school is a front to train the next generation of Valkyries, but also protect them from danger. Our characters have been put under a spell so that they have no idea they have abilities until the spell begins to wear off. ➽➽➽ All characters in this rp will be female or female presenting as Valkyries are only female. This thread IS trans inclusive. Please be respectful. ➽➽➽ As the characters are 16-18 in this rp, any romance that goes beyond cuddling and chaste kissing is prohibited. As an adult, I feel strange RPing children in ways beyond this. I'm okay with any relationships or shipping with the main cast as long as we keep it PG-13. ➽➽➽ Art for this thread should be art/illustrations/drawn/digital art. ➽➽➽ Treat everyone how you wish to be treated- with respect and courtesy. This includes the GMS and the Co-GMs. ➽➽➽ No flowerpot characters. Please create characters that have a backbone and a story that fits the plot. ➽➽➽ This is a group effort. Everyone comes up with plot twists and ideas to further the story together.
**Think of these as guidelines for your character. You don't have to make them exactly like these, but they are a roadmap for your character's personality.**
***I'm going to VERY picky for these roles. If you do not get the role you wanted in this rp, I would be willing to make a version two with different roles just to keep it interesting.***

In the town of San Junipero, an all female boarding school named Arcadia Boarding School for Gifted Young Women has been the symbol of wealth and a well educated young woman. The school was originally a boarding school for wayward girls in the early 1900s, but was transformed in the late 70's as the population of San Junipero changed over time. It is now a school for girls gifted in math, science, and humanities to cultivate their talents- or at least, that's how the school markets itself outwardly.
The truth is, Arcadia is a front to protect young Valkyries from those that seek to kill them and doom the planet. As the main cast is soon to learn as the spell that presents as a permanent fog that clouds their thoughts from magic events dissipates as they attend classes. When their powers suddenly manifests at the beginning of the school year, the six protagonists end up in hot water, and earn themselves a Saturday detention.
Most of the world is blissfully unaware of the evil that has been plotting to kill what remains of the Valkyries. Valkyries were once a team of powerful female witches who were descended from the children of the original gods.
The year now, is 2017, and the evil threatening to destroy the young girls have been active for a while now. Most simply just don't remember the events due to a spell that protects their memories from seeing the truth. The young, new magical girls are ignorant of what evil awaits them. When the six of them end up in hot water, and earn themselves a Saturday detention, they find that there's a lot more to themselves and the school that their parents and the staff are wanting to let on.
Most of the world is blissfully unaware of the evil that has been plotting to kill what remains of the Valkyries. Valkyries were once a team of powerful female warriors- united together by the magic inside of a a jeweled pendant that has been passed down from leader to leader through the generations.
The year now, is 2017, and the pendant has been dormant for a few years. Though, it's been in the possession of the new leader of the Valkyries. She, and the other magical girls are ignorant of what evil awaits them. When the six of them end up in hot water, and earn themselves a Saturday detention, they find themselves in a strange world, in strange clothing, and gifted with strange powers they have seemingly little control over.
