Trenton Academy is a high-end secondary education school teaching grades 6-12, with the middle school (6-9) being separated from the high school. Over sixty percent of the graduating populace went on to Ivy League schools. But there is another factor that makes Trenton such an appealing school to attend. It is a small and not-so-secret fraternity that had thrived on campus for years. Originally created as an organization to ‘protect’ the female attendants, it had grown into a secret society that is blissfully ignored by the staff and given free-reign. Having never had an official name, they were called the Knights of Trenton by the students. The name had stuck, and the Knights of Trenton became the protectors of the school.

Character sign-up:

Note: For those wishing to have Knights, you must be approved as such by me first. There are a few NPC Knights which I will control and explain here.

NPCs

Lord Matthew Durham: Head of the Knights, his title is 'Lord of Trenton'
Colonel Kensuke Maeda: Second-in-Command, known as the 'Trenton Samurai'
Captain Jason Finn: Head of Special Operations

Basically, all ranks from Captain to Second Lieutenant are open. For those choosing to RP 9th graders, the title of Squire is the only rank available (A Squire is a Cadet, of sorts, and becomes a Knight upon their first year of high-school).

Please sign-up, and lemme know of any questions you may have.

OOC: When you say "protectors" of the school, what does that mean - as in, protectors from what?

ooc: as in, they're basically security, they get hired out to protect students; be it stalkers, etc. Here's the link to the story I'm basing it on: http://www.fictionpress.com/s/2442301/1/Knights_for_Hire

anything i need to know what to not to bring ?

anything i need to know what to not to bring ?
ooc: not really, since you're a knight, i'll be 'assigning' you your duty. any preferences? (ie. Investigations, Spec Ops, Intelligence, IT etc...)

ooc: ok, but just for the record, even Spec Ops and Security don't carry weapons normally. Most weapons are in lock-up in the Armory and can only be accessed for special purposes. The weapons the Knights use also fire electric shock-darts (the tech is feasible, and I've been developing it in the Draftroom, fyi).

As Spec Ops, you'll be under Captain Finn. Also, are you a 1st or 2nd Lieutenant, and what class are you?

my char:

Name: James Curtis
Age: 14
Class: Freshman
Physical characteristics (weight, height etc.): 5' 4", 145 lbs, brown hair, hazel eyes
Rank (If a Knight): Squire (under Captain Finn)
Personality: James is amiable, nice and gentle...unobtrusive. He can be assertive if need be, and his dream is to be a Knight. He is constantly perturbed by his Knight's (Finn) teasing.
Biography: James is from a middle-class family; his mother a paralegal and his father an engineer who is retired Air Force. He got into Trenton on scholarship, unlike most other students who got in through privilege. He is constantly challenged because of this. James has a girlfriend, Freya, and their relationship is the subject of many of his teasings.

then he not any of those if he can't keep his handgun and combat knife

what class are you?
there only years one to ten,after that you bootcamp when you turn seveteen so guess it be year 11

what ever that is in the US?

ok, he's a second year...year 11. And by 1st or 2nd lieutenant, i mean in relation to the Knights. The Knights use the American rank system, from 2nd lieutenant to Colonel. being a 2nd year, I'd place him as a 1st Lieutenant, is that okay?

thanks sound right with what i learned of the American rank system

(Imperial: I don't think I'll do Mi-Yi in this RP, as I already have another character in mind in addition, you putting in Jim, I assume you'll want Mayumi?)

don't think Jim would leave her ,an Mayumi getting to see FUS on Imperial Universal Standard Dollars

Ok, ISA, you're squire will be under the tutellage of Jim Walker if you like. But, as a point of order, only first-years are squires. unless you mean a second-year middle-school student...

also, we'll start soon. I've just been really busy

i don't think Tom would have the title of Knight if he just a Private

dumb ad

Cool!

No, Tom is a squire. Each squire has a Knight as a mentor. Therefore, his Knight-mentor is Jim.

Also, gimme until Friday...if I haven't made a IC thread by then, TG me, okay?

saturday my time

Edit Question

would Jim be given transport be it jeep or humvee or can he bring a M21?

all weapons are supplied by Chevalier Arms (the Knights' on-campus armorer. Perhaps he'd be better suited for that position, no?)

as for the transport, there could be an airport shuttle, but it'd most likely be a limo or something. just fyi, all Knights live in the Knight HQ, a building set aside for their use. It includes their admin. offices, meeting rooms, practice rooms, firing ranges, armory etc.


also, here's the link to the IC: http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=587640

sorry again for taking so long.

imperials hate limos ,side they still need something to get around on weekends and i hope you have 7.62 Nato rifles

well, i'd rather everyone is already there, being first-day and all, but that'll work too.

if you're the armorer, you can acquire the weapons you think the Knights need (but remember our weapons are usually less-than lethal).

okay then that how they got there when people ask them how they traveled there

imperial born and rised to handle weapons only thing you find less-than lethal be training rounds used in war games ,so on and they still leave a mark

well, on the school grounds it won't be allowed. as a Knight, you have to follow the rules, but we have electric less-than lethal rounds (like the XREP). and i see your point about the travel, just use your transport then to make it easier, i suppose.

mean little shell :P

ok, have your char address Lord Trenton (group commanders can address him) and intro the rifle as the newest piece of equipment. i can already see a convo forming...

oh, and do you want to be armorer? yes/no? i think it'd be cool to have an armorer, imho

hmm armorer ok i'll give it my best shot and for the rifle bring newest piece of equipment,that still Owned by the Imperial military along with the AVI unit in them and amrour Tom and Jim have as Ben too young to have them

well, we also have the ability to manufacture...so it'd be cool as an idea to 'create' a gun for the KNights. just talk to Lord Trenton (he'll invite you to share some tea and biscuits, too).

what is the view on Jim and May ?

they're the married couple, right? if not, pardon for not remembering...

if so...i suppose an officer's dorm could be converted, but there'd be no funny business allowed on-campus (School rule, and it'd be wrong to make an exception).

yes marreid and yes them having a car is really need,and May all so pregnant

oh, i see. ok, erm...i can go so far as they have a car, but no military-grade stuff (my country is quite peaceful...). a Jeep or something is acceptable.

jeep or humvee be fine

mm how about they live off school, the home could be used in party plots?

well, some Knights do have their own private residences...[cough]mansions[cough] so that could work too.

as for parties...we have balls, parties and such, but...underage drinking and stuff is a no-no, especially for knights.

this is an exclusive, private academy fyi...so it's kinda strict.

under age is what age in your nation as 16 in my nation you can drink, lean to drive and have sex

age of consent=16, age to vote/enlist=16, age to smoke=18, age to drink=21

Ok, i'll come in FUS.
Maybe i could RP a guy that the Knights are trying to get to sign up after he has a fight or something....

don't think schools try to sign up people after some fight

Maybe he could of been to the school to straighten him out?
nah....well, i'm out of ideas :/

do ask me for help for ideas :P,as i'am out of them too :(

no, that's good!! the Knights are anything if not believers that there is goodness in everyone. How 'bout, he was fighting to stick up for someone, or something like that...or fighting is the only way he knows to survive...so now they'll channel his talent for good rather than harm.

Physical characteristics (weight, height etc.): 80kg, 5'8', blackish brown hair (looks brown when its spread but looks black when clumped together), brown eyes, stronger then he looks.
Personality: Friendly, but somewhat withdrawn.
