Northlake Academy ~ A part fantasy, part futuristic RP

The year is 2025.

The United States is at war with the EU countries they have been allies with for countless year.

Unfortunately, the US is in grave danger; Canada is on the brink of surrender to the EU.

For people living in the US, there is fear that the US will become a warzone where they will be killed.

The EU countries learn of special supernatural teens that live in the S. Wanting these teens to be under their command, the EU countries find an easy way to do it: By building boarding schools where teens will supposedly be "safe".

Sending spies all over the country to discover these teens, they eventually succeed in making a huge list.

Letters are sent to parents (and orphanages) telling them of these "new, fancy schools where your teens will be safe". The letters come with registration forms.

Soon enough, teens from all over the US are sent to a boarding school. Mysteriously, the boarding school takes away all electronics, including cell phones, mp3s, laptops- All of those items.

Unfortunately, the teens and their parents think this so called "safe" boarding school is being run by the US. But unfortunately, it isn't. Nowhere near close.

Which is why the teens are actually in danger... Especially... Since Canada has finally surrendered to the EU. But of course, none of them are aware of how close they are to Canada and the EU, and none of them know Canada surrendered to begin with.

(If this RP makes it past a few pages, then maybe we can have the awesome plot twist where our charries find out what happened and run)

Either play as a mythical creature (i.e. Half-Animal, Vampire, Werewolf..), or as a human with a power. Keep in mind that you cannot have additional powers if you are a mythical creature, since anyway, if you are a mythical creature, then you have your extra perks (Like if you are a half eagle, you can change into an eagle at will, or as a vampire, you have stronger athletic capabilities and the power to of course, turn others into vampires)

RULES:

Ya know, at this rate, I don't flippin care how literate you are. This RP section is dying and I'm desperate to get even two members. So I say 4+ sentences. I mean long sentences.

No powerplaying

No SUES of any kind. In fact, Imma go as far as to ban "shy" or "when in a bad mood/angry..." From being your only faults. If I see those faults I won't accept you.

Don't advance the plot until we get farther.

Let's have some diversity between charries. Make em' all unique.

I must accept form before RP.

Follow forum rules

Anime pictures not accepted for appearance unless you drew them yourself. So no going to deviantart/photobucket and typing in "cute anime girl" to get your appearance.

Name:Kassidy Chapman

Age(14-18):17

Gender: Female

Personality: Kassidy has always been an outgoing person. Loud, boisterous, and obnoxious, most people don't like her very much at first. She takes a little getting used to, and when you do happen to get used to her, she's the type of person who can be anybody's best friend. Kassidy is a music fanatic and has to listen to it constantly, if she goes for more than a day without music that she enjoys, she gets splitting headaches that make her power stronger and sometimes uncontrollable. Kassidy loves to be the center of attention, although she sometimes feels bad about it. Kassidy is an activist and loves anything that has to do with world peace and equality. She knows that she would be a great spy, and an even better double agent.

Looks: Kassidy was born with wild hair, her favourite part of herself. Its pitch black, the color of coal at the top and slowly fades to a blood red. It is long and very curly, constantly getting in her face. With sky blue eyes, many of the boys in her town find her extremely attractive, and Kassidy has to keep herself away from them (she thinks all men are pigs, and is waiting for someone to finally prove her wrong) She is tall and has milky white skin, which she can't tan no matter how long she stays in the sun.

Power:Kassidy can control fire. When she is in a good mood, it is very easy for her to control it. Her favourite thing to do is make fireballs in the palm of her hand when she's bored and then make them disappear by closing her hand. She can also control any naturally existing fire. For example, there was a kitchen fire in her house a while ago, and when her parents weren't looking, she put it out by slamming her hand onto it. When Kassidy has splitting headaches from not listening to music(this happens when her ipod dies and she can't find her charger) she goes crazy and can't control herself. She has fits of rage and catches fire and makes anything around her spontaneously combust. Luckily for not only her, but her family and friends, this has only happened twice. Unluckily for her past neighbors, this happened when she was at their house helping them mow their lawn. She tries to keep her powers a secret, because she knows her parents would treat her differently if they knew.

Race: Human

Other: I know you said no "anime", but I looked up a game my friend and I used to make an old character for an old rp. I hope you don't mind, but this just really makes it easier to visualize what Kassidy looks like.

edit: Although Kassidy knows the school takes mp3's away, she snuck in her ipod and listens to it when nobody is around. She hopes that if she gets caught they will let her keep it if she explains her situation

Name: William Marshall

Age(14-18): 17

Gender:Male

Personality; One could describe Will as being a very soft spoken and shy boy. He keeps to himself and isn't very good with words or explaining himself or his emotions. He honestly hates his powers and wishes that he would have gotten something different. He feels like he is intruding on other peoples minds. Even though he can only see where they are and what they say and not their thoughts but he feel like its wrong and intrusive because they can't tell when he is doing it so he feels like he is almost spying. Will is a very sentemental person and for him things like holiday gifts should be from the heart rather than something expensive or shiny. He is an artist and loves to paint and he plays a little bit of piano.

Looks: He is relatively tall and is about average in build. He has short ruffled sandy brown hair. His eyes are dark smokey grey and seem to be able to look right through people. His power drains a lot of his energy when he uses it so it often cauuses him to look fatigued or ill after he uses his powers for more than the odd little thing. Will could probably be good looking if he cared to try at it. But he doesn't really care what he looks like or other's opinions of him.

Power:Spirit, which is mainly just a couple of tiny abilities(He can temperarily see into others' heads[only certain people though] and see what they do from their POV, and can create dreams/entre them for others and some slight compulsion) But he doesn't like to use it and isnt very good at it...

Name: Peyton Addison

Age(14-18): 16

Gender:Female

Personality;Peyton is a very tempermental,loud and obnoxious girl. She likes to get her way and tends to be a tad selfish sometimes. She is a very argumentative and stubborn child who will go out of her way to prove that she is the right one of an argument. She may seem like a sweet and innocent girl by looking at her and as long as shes kept happy and is getting what she wants she can stay very cool and level headed. On the other hand, once she is irritated she can become a very catty, conieving and deceitful. She also tends to get a bit cranky or childish when she is upset and it is not beneath her to throw a complete fit or tantrum until she gets what she wants.

Looks: She is on the short side, only standing around 5 and a half feet tall. She has medium length strawberry blonde hair that has a slight curliness to it. She has an ovular face with angular features. She has fair skin with a small sprinkle of light freckles over her nose and upper cheekbones. Peyton has big soft green eyes framed in dark lashes. She normally wears more girly clothes, skirts dresses and heels.

I apologize for my really crappy form making this morning. (I really should have just adjusted pre made charries instead of trying to make new ones just custom for this rp.... oh well)

(Both of you are accepted, Bamfan, since you wrote a lot, I'll let it go that you used an image. It's not anime anyway, it's more cartoony.)

Name: Flynn Rogers

Age(14-18): 17

Gender: Male

Personality: Flynn is a lot smarter than he first appears to be. He is pretty laid back and carefree, and is definitely pretty darn lazy to the point where he sometimes skips normal school up to two days a week due to the fact he would rather sleep. However, Flynn always seems to excel in school and athletics, being very talented. He really never has to work for any of his talents, since he's naturally talented. Of course, even though he is perfect in that aspect, his laziness sometimes leads him to skip important events, such as awards ceremonies and athletic competitions. Course, if it is a super important game/ceremony, he'll attend since even he knows he can't skip. But anyway. Flynn always acts kind and is a good buddy to have, since he has a pretty darn good sense of humor and is reliable. For the most part. Just, whatever you do, don't give him work and then make him work on his own since he gets rather ticked, and well.. It's pretty... Scary... As in, he gets so ticked that he actually resorts to physical violence. Moving on once again, Flynn dislikes the war and hopes that the US doesn't have to start sending out more troops since he really doesn't want to go out to war, since he says it's too much of a pushover and that he would rather simply stay home, doing nothing. Otherwise, he doesn't really care about it and sometimes seems to not notice that a major war is going on in the world around him.

Looks: Being 5'9, Flynn is pretty much your average American boy, down to the short brown hair and green eyes. He is about a medium build and doesn't look ultra muscular despite the fact he's played basketball, football, tennis, swim, and track (Just cause he had nothing better to do and plus since his dad made him just so he'd have a better looking college resume). Course, he isn't fat either. Flynn tends to dress casual, as he hates stiff fancy clothing. In other words, he wears jeans and t-shirts, the typical male wear.

Power: Lightning, which is very convenient, and not only good for battle. He can also use it to hack devices like vending machines by sending a surge of lightning (AKA electricity) through it, which messes up the machine and makes it do what he wishes. Most of the time. He tried using it on his cell phone which was running out of battery once and it didn't work so well, he accidentally overcharged it and the battery exploded.

Race: Human

Other: N/A.

Merci Beaucoup Fuuuu- go away nodding memitchi Just let us know when we can start.

We can go ahead and start out as the charries arrive at the boarding school. Forgot to mention there were dorm rooms, sorry bout that. Anyway, the rooms can be 2 to a person)

That's alright do you wanna assign dorms after more people join or just wait and have people randomly walk into a room with their roomie in their post..?(I really hope that makes at least some sense)

Peyton arrived and the boarding school in the early evening and believe me she was not pleased about this. This placed resembled-in her mind, which admittedly was probably being at least somewhat biased- a prison. 'It will be good for you.' They said 'It will be safe' They said. She didn't want safe, she was perfectly fine at home with her family. She didn't need to be shipped off to some grey building in timbucktwo in order to be safe. She made a soft grumbling noise and dragged her suitcase through the large front gate, a cold steel wall about triple her own height and up to the large front door. Peyton felt extremely irritated about being forced here against her will. She was kissed on the forehead and told to be a good girl and make the best of it. This made her even more determined not to look at this in an optimistic light and simply spend the whole time here trying to find a way to escape.

(I guess the whole walk-in-on-your-new-roomie thing is happening here.)

The first thing Flynn noticed when he strolled into Northlake Academy was that it definitely looked like a lame old city building, made by the poor old government- Made of concrete and bricks. The front gate had been made of steel. He couldn't understand why no electronics were allowed at the place, and why at the main entrance the academy officials had demanded their electronics or else they would face punishment. It made no sense whatsoever. But, anyway. He looked down at the paper in his hands, and found that his dorm room was Room 20. Looking at the strange map on the back of his paper that lacked details (As it only seemed to name the location of the dorms, main office and cafeteria), he folded the paper into fourths and put it back in his pocket before continuing to his dorm.

Peyton pushed through the large front doors. Once inside, she looked around the large 'main foyer' which to her seemed to be code for a lage empty room. She placed her bags down ans shuffled around in her purse to find her envelpoe that contained her map and room arrangements and other papers contained in the information package she had gotten. She pulled out the papers she needed and slug her purse over her shoulder again. She looked down at her map alot of it was just empty space, it seemed like there were a lot of sections on the map that they didn't labe and this made her curious. She was in room 12, now if only she could find where she was going.

Kassidy parked her car in the parking lot and looked over to her mom. She tried putting a smile on her face, but just couldn't bring herself to do it. Her mom, she guessed, felt the same way as her. Staring blankly out the windshield, her mother started going on and on about how much Kassidy would love it here. "Oh god," she thought. "I'm never gonna hear the end of this." She leaned over, kissed her mom on the cheek and got out of the car. Popping the trunk, she dragged her suitcases and bags out of the back while her mother got out and opened the passenger door of her father's truck. Her father followed them so that Kassidy could keep her car and her mother could come along. Her mother lingered for just a second, gave Kassidy a longing look and stepped into the truck. There was no need for goodbyes now, they had done that on the car ride over. AS she watched her father's truck leave, Kassidy felt almost relieved. She loved her parents, but she had never really been anywhere without them hovering.

Kassidy lugged her stuff up to the big, iron gates. She felt this place was eerie--almost like she was being watched the entire time she was going to be here. She dug the folded up piece of paper from her pocket and read it.

"Welcome to Northlake Academy! We will provide you with anything you need! Please unload your baggage to your room which is room __" The number was written in scrawly handwriting on top of the blank in black ink. It read 19. Kassidy continued on, glad she had a first floor room. She just hoped she wouldn't room with a creep.

It didn't take Flynn too long to find his dorm, which was the final room on the first floor. He pulled his key out of his jeans pocket and then opened the room door. The room was very simple, consisting only of a bunk bed, a desk, a cabinet, a wardrobe, and a chair, and a very small bathroom with a shower, sink and toilet. He dumped his stuff out beside his bed, and then he plopped down onto the bed. Knowing classes didn't start till tomorrow and that the welcome assembly didn't start for another two hours, he fell asleep, taking an ever so glorious nap. Naps were his absolute favorite past time.

Peyton walked quietly down the hall, folowing her map as best she could despite her lack of directional sense. She made it to her room and loudly dropped her suitcases. She shuffled through her nude coloured hand bag trying find her room key. She could have sworn she had put it in here, and so she continued to shovel around in the main pocket. After a while she decided to check the small zippered pocket on the side of the purse. She stuck her slim hand into the pocket and it returned a moment later with the small silver key in between two manicured fingers. She groaned lightly in an annoyed fashion. "Of course." SShe grumbled sticking it into the door and wiggling it around until she was able to turn the door handle.

Peyton dragged her luggage into the room. She was quite glad that it was almost night fall and her vampirism was able to help her out with lugging around her heavy bags. She pushed the bag out into the middle of the floor just letting it topple over onto the carpet. She closed door and looked around the room. The room was definitely drab and boring. Peyton shrugged it off and simply figured that she would just have to fix it up.

FORM:

Name: Cecilia "Celia" Selford

Age(14-18): 16

Gender: Female.

Personality: Cecilia is quite a mysterious girl, who prefers to keep her history and powers to herself. Despite this, she is quite a fierce girl and very stubborn. She fights with people a lot and has quite a hot temper. Before she talks, most people expect her to be quite a kind and nice girl; which is the exact opposite of who she is. She is very blunt and frank with people and sarcastic most of the time. She can be very manipulative when there's a reason to be. Most people ignore her until she starts speaking and arguing. She is a very "eco-friendly" girl, and is very much aware of the state of the planet.

Cecilia isn't a girl who socialises much. She doesn't have many friends, and she doesn't mind that.

Looks: When in her human form, Cecilia is quite a petite girl, standing at just 5"3, and is quite slim. She has just shorter than waist-length hair, which is black. She uses her hair as something to hide behind; as a safety net. She somewhat relies on it. She has soft grey-blue eyes, which are quite large and almond-shaped. She has quite soft, childish features. Cecilia is quite an attractive girl, but doesn't bother with maintaining her image as much as other girls. She normally wears jeans and t-shirts - preferring jeans and tops, to skirts and dresses.

In her seal form, she is soft grey in colours, with dark grey dapples. She is small for a seal.

Power: Because she's a selkie, she has slight water powers. She also has seductive powers, but she rarely uses those. She has more powers than that, but shoe can't use them very much.

Race: Selkie (In summary, she's a seal shapeshifter. She's a seal in the water, and when she gets out, she sheds her skin. If her skin is stolen, she is trapped in her human form. They can be compared to sirens/mermaids, but don't lure humans in any way, apart from having seductive powers.)

Other:

Katherine stared at her room door as she wresteled the key out of her pocket. She pushed the door open after unlocking it and was greeted with a nice surprise: an empty room. She always loved being able to pick first, anyways. The room was awesome, simple, but awesome. The walls were a soft green and this was only in the common room. There were two doors to Katherine's left and right. Identical doors that each had an immaculate golden knob on it. Being Katherine, she chose the room to the right. After opening the door (which was surprisingly more heavy than she expected) she was amazed. It was like she already decorated it! There were posters of her favourite bands, a big lime green bean bag chair, and her favourite, an outlet for her mp3. On the bed (which, yes, already had a full bed set) was a small red letter. On it, written in the same scrawly handwriting as the person who wrote her room number, this time in cursive was "Hello! Welcome to Northlake Academy. We hope you enjoy it here! Please take the time to unpack and meet the rest of your dorm mates!". Katherine wondered who wrote this. The dean? The secretary? Well, it didn't really matter now, she thought as she bagan to unpack her clothes.

(MissInnocent, you are accepted!)

Flynn woke up about half an hour before the welcoming assembly. Scratching his somewhat disheveled hair, he slowly got up, and then promptly plopped back down. The spot where he had been sleeping was so warm and comfy... But.. Finally resisting the power of the comfy bed, he rose up, and then got off the bed before his body and lazy mind could make another decision. After changing from his wrinkled-from-sleeping clothes, he headed out of his room and began to make his way towards the auditorium.

Name: Tyler Davis

Age(14-18): 16

Gender: Male

Personality: Tyler is awkward in every sense of the word. When he isn't tripping over his own baggy jeans or apsolutely nothing at all, he's trying to fade qinto the background to avoid further humiliation because of his goofy nature. His attempts to attract the opposite sex are almost laughable, because he always finds some way to mess it up by making himself look like an idiot. His other social skills are definitely lacking, mainly due to the fact that he never felt the need to mix with society during his childhood. No matter how hard he tries, he can never seem to fit in because of this.

Looks: Tyler has light brown hair, sticking up in all directions and giving him a slightly goofy appearance. No matter how hard he tries to make it lie flat, it stays looking like he backcombed it, so he usually gives up and leaves it. He has hazel eyes, occasionally framed by square black glasses, though he hates these and tries to avoid wearing them. His eyes also have dark purple circles under them, from having to spend the day at school when he'd much rather be sleeping in a darkened room. At 5'4, he doesn't exactly tower over the people in the school, and his scrawny appearance is a far cry from the toned, muscled image of his species. His pale complexion tends to make him look very sickly, and he has an overall washed tone. He tends to wear a dress shirt with jeans, an awkward combination from his attempts to look both formal in honour of his species, and casual to fit in with his peers.

Power: N/A

Race: Vampire

Other: Uh...I don't think so.

Name: Summer Patterson

Age(14-18): Everyone's making 16/17 year olds, so let's go with 14.

Gender: Female

Personality; Summer isn't the most confident person, but then again, why would she be? Right now, right at the beginning of puberty, she feels incredible self conscious and often feels slightly shy around people. Slightly paranoid (although it could just be being dramatic), too, like she's not wanted, and will often end up getting all upset and wound up over a minor little event that she blows up into something massive such as not being wanted. Summer also has a very unstable stress level, and if it's triggered, it'll shoot up until she's a screaming, crying wreck who's unable to do anything other than stammer words - not very useful if she's trying to do or draw something rather important. She's a likeable enough girl, and easy to get along with, but you have to tread carefully around her. Summer's a rather ambitious girl, always striving to be the best in everything, but she's not daring, and will think twice about leaping into situations of which she's unsure of. This is because, deep down, she has a fear of not being able to do it and showing herself up or being laughed at. Summer's not one for new situations or things she's unfamilar with. She's generally alright around new people though. Summer has a sharp sense of sarcasm, and generally uses in it every conversation or nearly every thing she says. Some may say that it's slightly annoying, but that's just Summer.

Looks: You'd expect Summer to have blonde hair, but her long black hair is miles away from that. To add a little bit of lightness, however, she dyed her fringe partially blonde. Summer's a rather small 14 year old, but she doesn't really mind, and says that it makes her 'small and cute'. She's not the sort of person to wear tupidly high heels in an attempt to make herself taller, partly for that reason, partly because she thinks high heels are just plain daft. Summer isn't the type of person to wear loads of make-up either, in a similar sense. She used to wear none at all, but as she gets older and, y'know, gets more spots, she's starting to dabble with it, even though she thinks it's stupid to 'cover up your natural looks'. Clothing-wise, Summer would much prefer a brightly coloured t-shirt with a daft message written on it coupled with jeans to a dress or a tiny top and skirt. She's only 14, god dammits, why should she be dressing like a slut already?

Power: Art manipulation. That is, Summer can bring (only her own) drawings to life, pulling them straight up from the surface of which she drew them on. It doesn't have to be perfect or finished, but of course it makes it all the more accurate. It can be used on anything, whether she draws food, objects, people... for working objects such as cars etc, she doesn't have to draw the insides and everything - it's her thought process involved in 'pulling' the drawing out that makes the thing work in the real world.

Race: Human

Other: Any questions about the power? Just ask.

Name: Reese Corbin

Age(14-18): 17

Gender: Male

Personality: Reese is actually very laid back, and normally he wouldn't walk straight up to someone and start talking. He's an independent guy, and would rather work alone, but when he makes a friend (and he wants friends badly) that he becomes extremely loyal to them, and never stops talking. If one of his friends becomes endangered, then he will try and help, but he usually becomes so overwhelmed that he can't do anything. He likes to just read alone, and rainy days are his favorite. He usually chews on the draw strings of his hoodie to cope with worry.

Looks: Reese is an average height of about five eleven. He is pretty small in weight though, and most of his weight is muscle. He doesn't look awkward or anything though. His ginger hair is shaped into a spiky faux hawk, and he's got a small soulpatch with stubble running up the sides of his face. His eyes are a light, golden brown-green, and his eyelashes are fairly long. His skin is pale, which makes the many freckles that dot his body stand out. He is usually seen wearing a bright neon yellow pullover hoodie, paired with dark grey cargo shorts and his yellow Chuck Taylors. His iPod is always with him as well (will that be taken away from him?). He's also got 7/16" black gauges, and his right eyebrow pierced. He does scare most people because of how he looks, but he really is much quieter at first.

Power: Vitakinesis, which is pretty much like healing powers. He can heal anything on biological creatures (so he can heal vampires and animals and such because a vampire used to be a human, and well animals are biological) such as wounds, cure illnesses if they aren't chronic diseases, and he can broken bones. He can't, though, bring people back to life and he can't fix blood loss.

Race: Human

Other: Not really, unless you have questions . This looks fun!

(Everyone is accepted, however, tamaturle, be careful with your power, like, don't draw anything that would pretty much give your charrie extra power, like a spellbook/elementpower/etc., because then your charrie would pretty much be god.)

ooc: Didn't even think of that, but sure thing I doubt Summer would dare throw herself into something like that anyway x)

Summer had been in her dorm room for about an hour or so now, alternating between various exciting activities such as, oh, rolling around on her bed or making a few pencil strokes on her sketchpad (she'd attempted to do a few drawings, but had given up relativly early on and they were currently languishing in the bin) or simply staring out of the window. One thing she hadn't even thought about doing, however, was fully unpacking. Right now her suitcase and other assorted bags had been stuffed under her bed with only a few essentials removed, such as her jacket and her sketchpad and pencil combo. Interestingly, she'd had to open her bag and unpack a few things as soon as she arrived, although she'd rationalised that one in her head - it was essentially a boarding school, right? So it made sense that they would take phones etc away from them, although it kinda sucked that they'd taken her laptop away too. Wouldn't she need that for, y'know, work or something? Maybe she'd work up the courage to ask a staff member later. Sighing, Summer looked around her room. There was another side to the room with a bed in it too, rather pristine looking compared to her side. Maybe she'd get a roommate at some point? But right now she didn't have to worry about her potential roommate. Flinging her sketchpad to one side, Summer got up and left the room, heading down the hallway. It was about time she headed down to the auditorium and meet a few other people that would be staying here with her. And, you know, listen to the assembly too.
