You shuffle through the mail you received, a few over due bills, a newspaper, you know, the usual. One piece of mail strikes your mind, however. It is a large envelope with elaborate writing, addressed to you in red ink. There is a wax seal on the other side with the imprint of a sword with angelic wings on either side. You break the seal and dump its contents onto your desk. You pick up a letter and start reading.

Greetings,
Congratulations on being offered a spot in the upcoming sixth year of the Shentavo Academy. Your abilities and intelligence have proved more than adequate in dealing with the life you life. We do regret to inform you that our headmistress from last year will not be returning, and I will be taking her place. There is new staff this year, each specializing in what they teach. We also have new classes to choose from, so do pick wisely. Scholarships are available to this prestigious school as long as your abilities do not fail to please. Please send your application as quickly as possible, and you will receive a reply the next day whether you are accepted or rejected. If you are accepted, you need to pack immediately. Plane tickets will be provided to transport you to Summerset, a city our empire. Good luck.

Sincerely,
Alira Kade Shentavo
Headmistress of the Shentavo Academy

You place the note on your desk, a bit bewildered that you had received this invitation without even asking for information about the school. You blink several times, and pick up the brochure, and begin reading.

The Shentavo Academy

To returning students and new comers,
The Shentavo Academy will be continuing in its forth year this August. Classes as well as instructors have changed, so make sure you read through everything before you consider your classes. If you are receiving this letter, then your excellence has been brought to my attention. We only accept those with promising abilities as well as determination. I will tell you right now, that this isn’t going to be easy. You will have to work at this school, and not for grades. They do not exist here.

He grew up on the streets of Xaxis, one of the roughest cities in Squornshelous, and taught himself what he needed to survive. He is slow to trust others, but when he does make friends, he keeps them forever. The same goes with enemies. He also does not acknowledge the last name October. It was given to him by orphanage workers, after the month they found him.

Hah looks like Joshy boy might end up pushing the clas limit :p Ah well he'll probably go by Knightly or Maxwell insted of Vir (if you can guess what it means I'll give you a cookie [no not the good Resi ones sadly]).
I'm sure this year will be asa fun as the last four.. except minus the powered armor, rat boy ging crazy, and Qui and Josh seeing who can get Rave involved first.

I'd definitely be interested, won't be bringing Skadi back though.

Race: Human
Strengths (2): telekinesis, magery
History or notes: Jade lived a normal life with two parents, along with one brother and two sisters, that is, until she turned 15. She didn't know how to control her powers at the time, and ended up hurting her brother pretty badly by throwing him against a wall during an argument. Since then, her brother has recovered, and Jade has learned to concentrate her powers quite well... though at the cost of losing her family. She has been on her own since then, abandoned by the ones who were supposed to take care of her no matter what. She is always looking for a challenge and loves to prove others that deem her an amateur wrong because of her age.

Age: Unknown (first recorded appearence: 16 years ago)
Eye color: Unknown, supposed to be amber
Hair color: Unknown
Glasses or contacts: None
Race: Human (Somehow. It's impossible to tell what s/he really is)

Strengths: Can (better say: has to) adapt the physical appearence of nearly everyone s/he has seen (but neither the abilities nor the personality of this person).
Very agile.

History or notes: As far as those who are concerned (including Sil) know Sil is the product of some top-secret military project that went terribly wrong. No one who could tell who and what Sil is and what really happened survived the first test of the prototyp of a weapon called "Schattenlicht". Except Sil. S/he has no remembrance of the time or who and what s/he had been before the test.
Since then Sil had holed up (Generals are known for their paranoia, and something like Sil creates enough nightmares for a whole battalion of paranoid generals.). The fact that the invitation-letter reached Sil was enough for him/her to sign up.

Classes: Telekinetics

(OOC: What have I done?!)

Name: Aurelia Joisse
Age: 19
Eye color: Green
Hair color: Brown
Glasses or contacts: Neither
Race: Human
Strengths (2): Intelligent, physic/telekinetic ability
History or notes: At an early age, it was discovered that she had the ability to move and manipulate people and things with her mind. She managed to keep her abilities secret from most of those around her (mostly family and close friends only know), losing control mostly when she lost her temper, which happens still, though she has more control than she had in the past. Her temper is also one of her weaknesses, and she is quick to flare if she is not happy. Normally good natured and pleasant, she enjoys a joke and good company.

Application:

Name: Jimmy 'Invisible Hand' Horus (http://www.cpentertainment.co.uk/pages/images/2002-sept-dylan-moran.jpg)
Age: 247
Eye color: Hazel
Hair color: Black
Height: 190cm (6'2.5")
Weight: 71kg (156lb)
Glasses or contacts: Neither
Race: Human
Strengths (2): Physically fit, strong mental will.
History or notes: Jimmy has spent the majority of his long life in recluse, within a hidden complex beneath the surface of Assington. During this time Jimmy has filled his brain with the vast knowledge of his one time psychic teacher, Marius. Unknown to the nation, Jimmy is the most powerful psychic of the nation, yet he doesn't brag. Originally a thief and still one at heart, Jimmy is also a rich man yet does not share the expensive tastes others in his position choose to indulge in.

Jimmy's history is complicated yet it should be noted that he is an immortal in the sense he won't die of old age. This gift/curse was endowed upon him by a godess of Krowemoh after aiding in the defeat of her evil sister. And so Jimmy lives a relatively calm life, feeding his brain and occassionally looking out for psychic potential.

And chaos will not ensue unless its what I have planned as GM bwahahaha!
TELEKENETICS IS CLOSED
AVC2 IS CLOSED

Chaos is always a healthy thing if it is managed. Can't wait to start.

It will start when i get one more student for manavex or two days from now :-P

managed chaos.

interesting idea there. ;)

Can we start to threaten people so they add M&M to the class list of thier character becasue if so.... -gets out the lead pipe of +1 threats-

Lets not get off our rockers Phalanix.

I would put my vampire in the manavex class and yank her from one or two others. But a vampire at her age would never be able to do the hyper advanced stuff.

Joshy boy started in that class just as a cocky little bastard and he had little idea of waht to expect from it at his young (vampire) age. Besides Joshua has a tendancy to look out for others. If needed he can look out for her.

Hmm...dat is a thought. Will have to think on it. But, what do you say Rave? A young vamp in the class?

hm...*tilts head* Allright. Fine by me.

The Academy has started! Follow link below

....She wore a black suit, tailored to fit her figure, with a white shirt underneath....

Hmm....a character of Rave's and a white shirt....we had that some time ago, right? That and water. :)

oh shush you! Damn it! I hate when people throw water on me when i'm wearing a damn white shirt. *GLARES BRUTALLY AT TARLACHIA* that wasn't funny dan. it just wasn't...then the hose. Leave me alone!

^_^
its underneath a black jacket anyway. Nice to see you earth II. ^_^

thought about it...decided not to..unless you really need another student. A vampire about 70 years old I doubt would be able to preform such tasks. If you do need another student, I'll drop telekenitics.

Will have to wait to post for Nicole, since she can't move around in daylight.

Jeez...I do nothing, and STILL I get yelled at. Already, I'm heading to the principal's office, before school even starts for real!



"Do you know why you're here?"

"Not really."

"You like to spray hoses, don't you?"

"It was only a speck of dirt..."

"DO. NOT. TOUCH. THE. WATER.!"

Sorry Tarlachia. Didn't know it had been you who did "that". Else....

*celebrating 1000th post and throwing sweets to the masses*

Hm... after talking to Gehenna and Euroslavia I'm concidering putting the effort into continuing Michael progress from the last two years and seeing how he deals.

I feel like I didn't really try hard enough in the last ones and if I can get myself motivated I could probably make something out of my character and develope him some more... after getting some tutoring from Kane in the previous year, it was clear that the odds were stacked against him when it came to telekenetics.

I'll post the character up anew if you like the idea, I'm not going to join if it's too late or simply not welcome.


To explain the previous years failings, in both years he was called off early for duty and national crisis and it's likely that some of the schools experts will start picking up on Michael's (and most Iuthians for that matter) problem. I'll go into more detail later.

its fine. your welcome back.

PHALANIX YOUR POSTS MUST ALL BE LONGER THAN YOUR SIGNATURE! DAMN IT! *growls*

now night...now I can bring in my vamp.

Cut me some slack I was functioning on three hours sleep and I had to get up for work early (5AM early damnit [I deliver news papers]). Besides when you have a younger sibling yelling at you just beacuse he wants to use the computer in your room when you are trying to get some more sleep dosn't help.
And yes I'll try to get them longer than my sig....or I could cut my sig all together.....

just because you put me in your sig, i'll let it slide this time :-P

anyway, ^_ ^

Hah thats the Rave we all know and love. Yelling at you one second then for some odd reason letting it slide the next.

The Rave I know likes to yell all the time...

Must be this bucket that's glued to my hand... O_o

*buys ear plugs*

Ya it'd be the bucket. This is why I hide the water balloons....ah hell I said to much.

To: Alira Kade Shentavo, Headmistress of the Shentavo Academy, Rave Shentavo
From: Professor Mandrake, R&T Division, Iuthian Diplomatic Corps, Iuthia Prima, Iuthia
Subject: Student Applications for Sixth Year
Message:

Greetings Ms. Shentavo,

I am writing to inform you that our student from the previous years, Michael Willis will be looking forward to his return to the academy this year with the assurance that he will not be pulled out early to serve the Iuthian Military as was the case in previous years. We understand that Michael seems rather incapable of telekenetics and as such he will not be resuming that subject this year, instead he'll be keeping to the Advanced Combat and Acrobatics... however we would like if one of your experts were to give him a check up so that we may better understand why he is incapable of this subject despite being both willed and rather intelligent, perhaps there is a underlying problem which your school would be more adept at understanding given your magical background.

Meanwhile we would also like to inquire as to the possibility of sending anotherr highly capable student to your prestigous academy. Unlike Michael she has been picked out of the IDC and not directly from the military. We're sure she is very capable and hopefully will make a find addition.

Here are the attached application forms for each student, please send a reply as to whether they are successful in their application or not; [Attachement: 0001a (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?p=9381097#post9381097)].

Thanks,

Professor Mandrake, Iuthian Diplomatic Corps
Recruitment and Training Division

OOC: (Normally I wouldn't do it ICly, but I figured I should do this properly as I'm going a little off the idea of just one character and I'm trying for two... Michael isn't going to learn magic easy, but I like him... he's been developed.)

Name: Michael Willis

Age: 24
Eye color: Brown
Hair color: Brown
Glasses or contacts: n/a
Race: Human

Strengths (2): Smart determined mind, peak of physical health.

History or notes: Serving his third year in the Iuthian Military, Michael Willis's record of sercive is exemplary while not actually serving in any real combat due to Iuthia's peaceful record he has thus far been determined and eager to please both his unit and his superiours and has shown initiative in his work.

Michael has previously attended the Shentavo Academy on two seperate years, however he was unfortunately unable to complete either year due to various crisis arising back home. It has been determined that Michael probably isn't capable of Telekenetics so that subject has been dropped this year pending further examination.

Classes: Advanced Combat, Arcobatics

------------------------------------------

Name: Joanna Fie'lorn

Age: 19
Eye color: Blue
Hair color: Fair
Glasses or contacts: n/a
Race: Iuthian-Elven

Strengths (2): Highly trained diplomat, highly inteligent.

History or notes: Joanna Fie'lorn is one of the young hopefuls who have recently completed the fourth tier of their Iuthian Diplomatic Corps special training, she has lived with the IDC for the most part of her life as one of the parentless children brought up by the state. She has had some minor issues with the IDC training program in the past as the strict regime has given her reason to uncharacteristically rebel, normally this wouldn't be an issue as we do allow our people space... however we get the impression she is bored at the pace of training we are providing her, clearly she is talented and wanted to expand her horizons in new ways we could not provide.

She was pleased to learn that she was being concidered for the Shentavo Academy as the open enviroment and wild mix of students will hopefully help her to settle down and realise her calling.

Classes: Advanced Combat, Arcobatics, Telekenetics.

This is what I get for being late to posting. Two full pages. *sigh*

Ah well, typical Shentavo Academy experience. I bet that we lose someone by the tenth page because they can't keep up.

Ah well, typical Shentavo Academy experience. I bet that we lose someone by the tenth page because they can't keep up.

Well... got plans for that this time as Gehenna and I generally post kinda at the same rate. So with any luck I can just keep up with her and keep an eye on the general situation of everyone else.

My posting speed depends on my mood, I find it hard to write good stuff if I've not got myself into the thread.

Music can help get yourself "into the thread". I find it works for me. ie: soundtrack of Gladiator is one of my favs for combat/war postings.

Yes music does wonders with posting. Though I find Path by Apoalyptica to be the best music for writing war posts/threads. But most of the time I just end up blasting songs by Thrice to get my character posting going.

Clearly I need more music...

I dunno, I usually can concentrate through anything but when writing a long post for some story character like thread my concentration is easier to break, as I read through how it sounds and I am trying to get a certain style to it but I'm surrounded with distractions.

*shrugs* I'll work something out.

5,000 posts Iuthia, congrats!

Tarlachia: If you throw a damn waterballoon at me or my characters, I will drain your body dry of all the blood you possess, and burn your remains. I will then take your ashes and scatter them in a trough where you will then be consumed by pigs.

Iuthia, as I've sent you the invite over TG, you are accepted already. Have fun. I put up with you for years, I'm sure i can handle one more *winks* ;)

Phalanix, hi.

5,000 posts Iuthia, congrats!

Thanks, I hadn't noticed.

Yeah, I read the TG, Rave, I felt I would actually write the application form out for background and to give you a chance to say "Don't have two characters" if you didn't want me to have them... hell, I was thinking of three but I figured I wouldn't push it, the background reasoning is that the boffins in Iuthia want to know if the problem is limited to Michael or if it's something else.

Hi.... -places the water balloon in Tarlachia's hands and edges away-
Finaly get to play with the emotional flaws that Joshua has in the proper place. Been wanting to make his emotional state worse for a long time.
Now back to working on his memory flow slowly obliterating the tatered remains of his sanity.

erm, Gehenna Tartarus. I was trying to interact with your character and I guess you didn't notice, should I edit my post or will you?

Sorry, I edited.

I missed it in all the posts that appeared.

man..go away for a few hours and this jumps by 2 pages..got a lot of reading to do.

Looking at the thread and reading your latest post, Simatar, I can't help thinking about the effect drinking the blood of another vampire would have on your character. Not that it's too important, it's more of a side interest of mine really (the original reason I got into vampires threads a while back) so I was just wondering about it.

Some systems look at it as just blood being transfered from one vampire to another, like food being shared. Others say the blood, once it's been through the vampires system possesses (sp) special qualities and could even magically link a vampire to another... of course, it really does depend on your own view of what you think your vampire is and how they would react to it. The systems I enjoy would actually create interesting problems if you drink from the same vampire numberous times.

Heh... don't mind me, like I said, it's an old interest and if it's more fun to just go with it and RP the effects over time then yay, that will be fun to read.

Well..Nicole is already a vampire. From what I recall Alira is an angelic vampire and her blood is strong enough and mixed to let Nicole move around in the daylight. Correct me if I am wrong Rave.

Stephen Malone (the first Simatarian vampire) turned in a way that is VERY different than probably any vampire in NS. His secret is only known to himself, Nicole, and Sigrun Greenwood...King of Tarlachia who is his close friend. You have to go combing through Assington Vampires 4 to find out how he turned.

I'd rather keep Nicole from being warped by Alira's blood at any rate.

I'd rather keep Nicole from being warped by Alira's blood at any rate.

Fair enough, I was thinking of how odd and interesting it would be if consuming the blood resulted in an accidental blood bond between Nicole and Alira (funny name, reminds me of another character I deal with and love). Basically Alira wouldn't change, but Nicole would find herself obcessed with Alira in a rather unhealthy way.

That said, it's half-angelic blood... you can be affected by it in any way you want (as you have pointed out).

Anyways, I better post Michael's next move...

Aye, correct. As the resident vampiric addict and angelic vampire expert...it could link us, but Alira would really not wish a student to get into her mind. I'm sure that it could be severed. I don't think it would happen unless the taking was mutual either, or else it would be rather one sided, don't you think? Anyway, that blood lust can happen. Angelic blood is rather tastey...

*alira eyes Xavier*

Xavier: o.o *curses and runs*

At least it's not like you are giving a human vampire blood, I've RPed that once with James deGritz (who despite all logic concidering how old my nation is, is still in power) and the effects of ghouling damaged one of his relationships at the time.

Thankfully it was a one time affair...

<.<
>.>

Actualy I recall Rave reserecting Joshua after he was shot in the head and using her lood on him before he was a vampire. He had quiet a (power) trip to say the least. I'll go paw through the Jolt archives later to see if I can find it since I have found things dating back to late '03 in them from the NS forums (CC's Red Dragon War threads)

Tarlachia: If you throw a damn waterballoon at me or my characters, I will drain your body dry of all the blood you possess, and burn your remains. I will then take your ashes and scatter them in a trough where you will then be consumed by pigs.

*raises hand* What is the official stance on Super Soakers?

Those who live by the water-gun will be killed by Rave (wearing a white shirt)

Super-soakers were outlawed...

However...there's one thing I know that would work...

There's nothing between here...

Grabs hose and begins filling pool up, whistling all the while...

and here...

*runs*

Hmmm... We need Rave bait
I know!
-sets one of those realy good cookies she likes down by the pool and walks away whistling-

Phalanix, Joanna was talking to the teacher, she started the sentance with "Sir", though I guess I should have been a little more clear about who she was addressing.

No more plots to douse me in water. The entire male population i have rp'd with with the exception of the few with actual decency (Iuthia, Kain...ect) has had the thought cross their minds. Now would you all quit it! NOW! :mp5:

So... You're doing classes in seperate threads this time?

to keep it a bit more organized.

Rave you should know I'm just playing. :p I still value my life so I am not even gonna try and do that.

And I'll fix that post up.

I've never plotted or been involved in such... :rolleyes:

Truthfully Rave, I have never plotted to douse you with water or any other liquid. I have never plotted to harm or attack you in any way shape or form.

But, mind if I ask why you are so afraid of getting hit by water?

Apologies for the erm... non-posting. I've been working non-stop the past 2 days. New posts coming later today.

It's dan's fault.

Ravey, here's a cookie...relax, we love ya. :D

I wouldn't do that to ya, it would spoil your beauty hehe.

Hey Rave, is the Advanced Combat room open during the day when not in use? I figured that Michael would go somewhere to train during his free day and it made sense that the actual room he would be learning in would be most suitable, if it was open. If not he'll just find a large spot outside on the grass to do his practice.

yes. it's open.


...you think that would make me less pretty? :eek:

Jeez, Patrick's starting to get bored...not much to do except wander aimlessly about...

Perhaps he can go in search of the phantom! ;D

perhaps you can speak with Xavier about that night? :-P I do everything for a reason

But, mind if I ask why you are so afraid of getting hit by water?
Wizard of Oz. Hehe

So Rave you tried to have Joshua killed by Qui for a reason? He still has nightmares about that sword wound.

I'm not a witch dear Crimmond. I am a russian mafia princess. Now you know.

lol. yes, for pure amusement.

That still does not explain why you are afraid of getting hit by water Rave...unless you are really a Russian mafia princess and believe General Jack D. Ripper's philosophy of the great Russian flouridation plot.

You're an evil evil but hot woman. Then again I'm an evil little bastard.

I really am a russian maffia princess with a british accent. I am russian, but was raised in england, and kidnapped by pirates.

you made me blush phalanix, thanks. :-P

I am just insane.

Heh anytime Rave besides I still got those pictures lingering in my computer.

i have one of michael and i. he is rather infamous now. get on aim.

Still sexy as ever. XP I'm still the same old highschool guy with shorter hair and taller.

again with the blushing. geeze

Hah I'm always good at making people do that XP

@Rave:

I'm on holiday for the next 14 days (wandering in the shadows of the volcanoes of the small island that is threatening the north-american east coast (La Palma)) and won't have any internet access.
Feel free to ignore Sil or do whatever you want (you see, I trust you).

no problem.

Like always Rave you're HOT AS HELLL!!!

but i'm an angel...

Well you are hot. You know one of your fans is never wrong :p

This is what happens when I stop checking out the NS forum, and going into II all the time...I miss one a shentavo academy when I have enough time to be fully involved. Sadness.

Oh well, I couldn't have RPed this week anyways, horrible illness pain.

Hmm...I never thought of dousing you with water...but now that the idea is there....

Have a cookie Rave.

*Notes that in one of Rave's pics she has blues eyes whilst another has green eyes...*

O_o

the joy of contacts! :-P

SIGMA!!! *runs over and grabs cookie from hand* ...*eats*...THEN hugs. Missed you deary!

Ah, well blue or green they are still nice pics... ;)

Very nice pics

I'll have to get in on the next one.

rave = pretty (the pictures don't lie and neither do i)

There will be more cookies in the future. Especially if someone throws me a line next academy (hint hint).

geeze guys. way to make me feel pretty.

*eats another cookie*

And i thought i dropped you a TG

Nope, I recieved nothing.

Things have been particularly lively lately... -_-

waiting for people to tg me X_X

Tarlachia is having internet troubles lately, I have no idea where the others are.

I'm still here.. sent out a telegram to Rave last night.

I sent a TG the day Rave asked for one. Waiting for one in reply...

3 things:

I'm back (everybody dance and praise me. Do it!)

Where is everybody else? Expected to have ten or more pages to read after 14 days of absence and now that *shakes head*

*looking at picture* Woi! Micheal is a lucky man *takes sun-glasses to block that blinding shining (* =) *)

Did the School year start already?

or are applications still being accepted?

You're a bit late. The rp started last month.

Sorry but I'm gonna be missing for a while longer due to school coming up and biting me in the ass. My sleep patern has been greatly distubed by it so as a result I'll be offline atleast 75% of the time I used to be online.
Also I got a massive project (already!) and need to finish it.

You're a bit late. The rp started last month.
oh, ok, next term then :p

whatever happened to this?

is it dead?

whatever happened to this?

is it dead?

I hope not.. it was enjoyable so far.

I'm still here and good to go...

the quest i had planned can not work out when everyone just drops out. lol. I see two or three people pursuing it, and everyone else kinda died. So I stopped my posts, hoping they are to catch up, and no one ever did.

If my life didn't hit that hecktic point I'd ahve been in their like old times (one liner posts for all!) but I've been mobed by work, family problems, and other fun things.
I guess the glory days of the Shentavo Academy has past and just like NS (the section) it to is becoming less active.

I'm more than happy to continue Rave.

I apologize for not posting as much as I used to. Since starting the RP, the promotion to forum mod has sort of put a curb on a lot of my RPs.

I'm still game for this.

I'm still here...

um...no excuse for me...simply forgot about it.

Btw, Rave, looking through the newspapers I found nothing. I think, no news are good news in this case. Don't know what to do else.

julian has driven me mad. I am so determined to find anything. I don't care what it is...anything. A person can't just...disappear.
