--Ivy Academy for Gifted Boys and Girls--

[spoiler]Deep inside a forest,
Where trees grow thick and tall.
She sits in a magestic light,
Through the day and the night.
Her walls covered in ivy,
And spangled with blue roses.
She dare keep the outcasted in her door,
They shall be safe there forever more.[/spoiler]


--PLOT--

For ninety-nine years the Ivy Academy has kept her doors open for the young witches and wizards between the ages of twelve and nineteen. For as long as anyone can remember the school has been a safe haven from the outside world which has chosen to ignore the needs of 'specially gifted children', but now it seems that the Headmaster is hiding a secret. The one-hundredth anniversary is drawing nearer and nearer, as is the 'Blood Moon' or more commonly know as a lunar eclipse.

This is where you come in.

You are in a group of fourth years who seem to be more gifted than the rest of your kind, meaning your even strange in the world of magic. You do not attend the normal classes as you are taught by the Headmaster himself, though he refuses to tell you why. Its up to you to save the Ivy Academy from whatever is trying to destory it, no matter what the cost.


--SETTING--

The Ivy Academy is a pristine private school dedicated to the education of young witches and wizards. Surrounded by a thick mass of forest and gated with a tall wall its virtually impossible for any human to come across it. Covered in ivy leaves and blue roses its pretty obvious where the name comes from.

The campus is large enough that it provides private rooms for each of it's students. A dinninghall that fits each students dietary needs, a library filled with the history of everything and the many classrooms that are needed for the teaching of the young witches and wizards.

Age: 15
Gender: Female

Personality: The adventurer and risktaker of the group for she never takes anything seriously. She is constantly doing something random and uncalled for. She likes people but has constant trust issues and when anyone is near her in adventure mode; hold on to your hats folks! She is a brilliant girl with a haeart of almost pure gold.

History: Her mother and father were both nutcases and famous in thier escapades. Violet was always brought along and some even consider her a nutcase herself. Sadly both of her parents died her first year at school and her aunties don't like her very much.

Reserving spot for a gal.

Reserving girl spot ^^

Reserving spot for a girl and a guy! (:

Name: Kyla Marie McDonald
Age: 15
Gender: Female

Appearance: Long, white-blonde hair that reaches to the small of her back when it is down, but is often seen in pigtails. She has round green eyes, and looks quite young for her age. She's a bit on the short side, and often loses respect because of it.

Personality: Extremely bubbly and happy. She's the eternal optimist, never recognizing danger for what it is and always believing that there's hope. She's extremely friendly, always nice even to those who hate her. However, this bubbliness is often her weakness as well, as she doesn't always know when to shut up about something. She doesn't have any kind of sense of when someone doesn't like her, and will often overlook someone's emotions simply because she doesn't notice them. She also has occasional odd tendencies.

History: There was some kind of accident with her memory many years ago, and for this reason, she doesn't remember her childhood or any of her family. Her first memory is of waking up in the middle of the forest and fighting through it for three days until she stumbled upon the school. Despite its disguise, she saw it for what it was, and they took her in.

Other: Up for love. She has an invisible fish-spirit friend that she's quite convinced is real. Others, however, are not as easily persuaded.

Name: Tristen Alucard De Leoness

Age: 15

Gender: Male

Appearance: He is a tall boy that seems older than he really is. His golden eyes betray a sadness and wisdom not normally seen in people his age. He stands about five foot nine, and has a mop of dark brown hair that falls to his shoulders. His hair is messy and there are always strands that fall into his hair. He has two thin braids on the right side of his face, and a longer one that drops a little below the rest of his hair on the left. His hair is so messy that they generally blend in but every once in a while they will peep out. He keeps them there in memory of his sister (see history). He also has a small tattoo of two small marks that scratch across his left cheek bone. This is him, but take off the beard

Personality: He is what some consider to be a bloodthirsty warrior that fights for pleasure, but that is not the case. For as long as he can remember he has been one of the top combat wizards at the school. Not many have stood up to him and very few have beaten him and those by a very small amount and in a mediated duel. He longs to find someone "worth killing", to meet his match in combat, so that he may finally join the rest of his family. Despite this thirst for combat he is the most honorable man you will ever meet. He has a very practical sense of right and wrong and will follow it to the letter, even risking his own life, if he believes in the cause. He is generally kind to people, even if he does not interact with them, but if someone does something he considers dishonorable he will spit in their face, and it may take a very long time for them to earn his respect.

History: He was born in France but raised in England with his mother, father and baby sister. One day when he was seven his five year old sister was braiding his hair when two men came in with guns. They shot his mother and father then tied him up. They killed his sister and made him watch. When they were done, he lost control of himself and used magic. He killed all of them and burned his house down in the process. He was approached by the school headmaster and brought to the school, where he discovered that he had a great talent for casting destructive spells, probably a result of his past. He keeps three braids in his hair to remind him of his family, and the two tattoos on his cheek remind him of the men he killed.

Other: He has a pet hawk that he never keeps on leash or in a cage. Its name is Roland. Also he has no emotional qualms with hurting or killing, if he thinks they deserve death.

Name: Bethany Server (goes by Beth)

Age: 15

Gender: Female

Appearance: http://images.veer.com/IMG/PIMG/ZPP/ZPP0000158_P.JPG

Personality: She's extremely smart. One of the smartest in her grade. (Kind of like Hermione^_^) She loves to read but can't seem to find out how to make freinds. She's very brave and never shy, she justs seems to find her books more interesting than other people. Most people find her with her nose in a book.

History: She has a pretty normal family. Her mother and father and baby brother love her quite a bit. Her mother was a witch as well but tried to hide it from her daughter. So did her father. They just wanted to be...normal. Of course, it's not really something you can hide and it's possible the most exciting thing for Bethany. Her best freind is her neighbor, Myles, and it turned out he's going to the same school as her.

Other: Up for love.
