so~ since I'm a little out of touch with SBs and RPs these days, tell me, is this one where there's a type of overarching plot/story waiting to happen in some semblance of structure, orrrrr more of a never-to-end kind of thing with day-to-day events mostly focused on actual classes?
And if the former, is that something already in planning/decided somewhat, or not?

edit: I know an overarching story and classes can coexist; just wondering if we're aiming for one over the other

So, something that I'm personally big on is establishing a setting and allowing RPers to work together to develop their own plots that work together to mold an eventual main plot, more or less. There are already at least a few side plots that'll interact with each other to some degree, so it's kinda like an all-knowing novel from multiple perspectives that acts as a main plot but also not, if that makes any sense?

If not, yes, classes are a focus but not the only focus cause we might want to skip a class for reason XYZ because of sideplots that are developed by character interactions within the classes-- which may also not be the best explanation ever XD

I'm actually working on 7 more students and 4(?) characters that are either teachers, staff members, or Headmasters/mistresses at the other schools, so probably XD

@Chesacos You can have more students!

OK I'm gonna make some more characters

I'll edit them into my first post

Back when I was first active, I used to do SBs a lot, and routinely have like five characters per SB minimum and make everyone else do the same
Which is a really, really bad idea for me right now, with my novels and everything else. Which means there's a high chance I do it anyway. Because, yknow. Reasons.

I like the sound of that; figuring out little story threads out of character dynamics is my favourite~
I also got the impression from the intro post there was some deeper scheme brewing underneath, though, and Iiiii wanna play with that :3 somehow :3 pls :3

do you mean, as your own characters? or as more characters for other writers?
