Yes. I want to be the lord of the punching bags. I assure you it'll take much punching to deal with this particular Mara

Alright, lord of the punching bags it is. But your allies are the Shadow team. Feel free to double cross them. And you need to be a level one Mara. You're probably the only one. XD

Name: Mordechai (call him 'My lord' ;) )
Age: 2000 + years (is immortal)
Position: Lord and Master of the Mara
Creature- Fallen Angel-ish
Rank- 1
Feeds On- Dreams in general, but he doesn't cause any harm, not per say. He's a master at getting into dreams, though.
Habitat- his mansion in the Faustian Realm/his mansion near the coast of Brittany
Personality: Mordechai is, of course, utterly evil. But he's methodically evil: he's patient and diligent, and is always soft spoken and calm. He tends to give second chances and opportunities unless he's absolutely sure that said underling deserves no second chances. He'll plot carefully, then explode into unstoppable action.
History: Mordechai was born out of Tartarus, the supreme evil birthing pod of all monsters. He grew quickly, earning a reputation for being a cunning leader. This was proved when he hijacked Tartarus and assumed control of all Maras of the Faustian realm by consequence. He's been the ruler ever since. Mordechai was elated when his domain came in contact with earth, and possesses the dreams of humans to go for visits (he has the ability of being able to exist on earth so long as someone, somewhere, is dreaming.
Appearance: http://www.google.com/imgres?q=fallen+a ... inson-rele
Mordechai looks twenty-ish, as he always had, and has messy black hair and equally black pitiless eyes. His jawbone is strong, and his nose small, his lips pale. He has a slight tan. His physique is fit and muscled. He looks completely human save for one talon-like steel-clawed foot. He wears black jeans, a shirt and a black trench coat. A diamond-studded Rolex is fixed to his wrist, and many jeweled necklaces from his neck. He also wears a black lizard-skin belt from which his two katanas hang.
Effect in Dream World- nothing- he's just nigh impossible to detect. He can act as if he were in the Faustian Realm, though.
Extra: Mordechai is infatuated with the human world. He has the ability of existing somewhere on earth so long as someone, somewhere, is dreaming. He has a mansion in Brittany, and is known as a minor pop-star band called 'the Fallen Ones', all composed by rank 3 or higher Mara's with similar abilities, his girlfriend, Morgan, amongst them. He has his own perfume brand in France, 'Delightful Sin', which he wears constantly. He also loves fiction, especially fantasy, to the point that he's a master at predicting the flow of fiction and uses that to his advantage in real life on occasion. He's innovative, and established Wi-Fi in the Faustian Realm, making it a more civil place. He's up-to-date with the latest tech.

Interesting. By the way, he doesn't need to have an effect In the dream world. As far as I can tell, it's not godmodding as long as you don't kill off our characters. XD

Creature: Witch-like
Name: Fiona
Age: 1800 + years (looks around nineteen)
Habitat: The Faustian Realm, Earth
Personality: Fiona is, like all Mara, cunning and evil. But, unlike the other Mara (and also because of Mordechai's company), she has developed something approaching feelings. She, like Mordechai, loves Earth, and spends most of her time there. She's rather arrogant, though, deeming all Mara's under rank 3 not to be worthy of contemplation, and treats all humans like a curious novelty. She appreciates wisdom and cunning (hence why Mordechai is her boyfriend.
History: Fiona was, like Mordechai and all Mara's of rank 2 and above, spawned from Tartarus. She met Mordechai fairly soon in her life, and they became friends very quickly, albeit in an evil-kind if relationship.
Appearance: http://www.google.com/imgres?q=withc&hl ... GOTH-WITHC
She has lustrous black hair, in contrast with her pale skin, deep indigo-purple eyes, full lips, and always wears some sort of expensive dress.
Feeds On: Dreams, but has no tangible effect.
Extra: Like Mordechai, she's very up-to-date with the latest tech. She usually lives with Mordechai in his mansion, but owns a series of them througout the Caribbean. Like Mordechai, she has the ability to exist on Earth so long as someone, somewhere is dreaming.
Rank: 2, pending to 1
Effect in dream world: she cannot be detected by conventional means.

Here's the 3rd daybroader! :D

Name: Emma Szchewan.

Age: 19

Position: Daybroader

Personality: She has always had the potential to piss off people especially, men. She loves girls, and is always trying make girls rule the world. But due to an incident, she changed. She has equal rights to everyone now. She is one the class-toppers and everyone likes her. She is a great friend to be around with but go argue with her, you'll drown.

Only weakness is she's very nostalgic. So watch out, if she starts saying old tales. She is easily confused and always finds an answer to it. Don't misunderstand her, ever because she finds it really annoying.

History: Her parents are very formal and have always seen respect to faith. They both are highly- educated and Emma has always been very formal clothes everytime. They live in a big mansion with lots of activity rooms. Emma has 4 siblings. 3 year old- Henry, 7 year old- Suzanna, 9 year old- Fiona and the hot super model of age 14- Chanelle. They all are the most loving siblings you'll meet. They've always been together, in whatever they do. But, Emma is far away from them, and cries for them every night. But if anyone knew she cried every night, she would rather die because her usual self doesn't show much.

Once, a tragedy happened in their country, where the there was a huge explosion to where Chanelle and Emma were present. They escaped by a miracle.

Appearance:

Height: 5"7

Extra:-- She wears nerdy glasses, when she's bored. Its always a habit. Also, she speaks German very well.

Spoiler
Mara:

Creature: Feerce.

Habitat: Corners of the World. Either, at the corner of Antarctica or thick- forests.

Appearance: [spoiler]Image


Spoiler
Feeds on: All sorts of energy and controls evil minds. It can even control the inner side of you. Either make you die or live. It depends on the Feerce. No one can convince it except its trainer.

Rank: 2

Effect in dream world: Whatever evil minds strike him, he can defend any of it. However powerful it is. If angry, it transforms into a a burning Feerce where the flames come out. They fly really fast, but not really high. They love company. Sometimes, they have a habit of remembering the bad memories of the past, which makes them restless. They find their own food from the weirdest of places.


Hope its fine? :D

I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living.

One prob- xxmusicaxx said Mordechai should be the only rank 1 mara. You'd do me a favor by bumping that down to rank 3 or 4

Italian, that's my job. -.-'
And unfortunately, Cookie, he's right. Could you make that a level 2? Maybe the Mara that guards the Faustian realm.... That would be cool. XD

It's okay Illuminist. ^^

Okay guys, I'll start us off tonight. Please remember that though Gingerhead and Twisted Muffins characters remain in the SB, they may not be making too many posts. Feel free to mention their characters and use them, but please, no Godmodding.

All characters start out in front of the Academy, entering on their first day of school. For clarity, I'd like the posts to be headed as:
Person | Place.

I'll start tonight. Miss Nia will meet you at the front door, as you portal in, fall from the sky or just walk unto the door. For the academy is in the Faustian realm, in the Havens of sands, far away from the monsters. Maybe I forgot to mention that. XD

What about me? And if the academy is in the Faustian realm, wouldn't that make it a little too easy for me? Then again, it'd be easier if you were on Earth.
This means I'm known, though, so there goes the element of surprise :(

Hey guys! So, after a month of waiting, multiple problems and numerous digging-out episodes - I give you Nightmare Academy. Yes, drum roll please. XD

Right, I needed to change one thing. To the teachers - You guys are already at the Academy. You live there, of course and you know Nai Tamarie. Only trainees are to portal in. Also, you will be accompanied by a teacher - basically, they'll come to pick you up. See the post made for Aiode for an example. Each etcher will only pick up two student. I can't explain it too well.
To all trainees: You guys begin by taking all classes. Your specialities will be chose on the second day. Nai will explain this later.
Dayboarders: You guys are asleep right now. XD
Sorry for the long spoiler.. XD


Nai Tamarie | Porch - Nightmare Academy
Nai stood at the gates od the Academy, looking out to the sea. The Nightmare Academy existed on both the Faustian realm and the Human realm in the Haven of Sands. It could be accessed through both by portals. Thus, the landscape around the Academy was always changing, though the sky always remained an angry shade of purple - looking like it was ready to hurl some lightning bolts at some unsuspecting victims. In the day it would be a pleasant lavender color, but it was nighttime right now.

She sighed and stood at the porch, looking around her. Today the landscape was that of a calm ocean. Across it, in the distance, a few level four Matas coul be seen flying over a NYC skyscraper. Of course, it wasn't actually happening. The Nightmare Academy was the only place you could see the overlap of the human realm and the Faustian realm.

The bizarre scene reminded the young headmistress of her first day. Janet Goodhall was the headmistress then, she thought...
The door of the Academy creaked behind her, and Valerie Heart the school's philosophy professor came out.
"Anyone here yet?" asked the teacher. "Nope. It'll take a while. You go on to sleep Val." (A/N: To dayboarders and other non-Academy staff, the landscape appears normal, and so does the school.)

The minute the teacher left, two portals opened up. On in the sky, and another in the ocean. A few seconds later, Uri, the WritScripting teacher appeared (actually his head) bobbing in the water. He was followed by two new trainees. Overhead, the portal in the sky coughed and spluttered, ejecting another teacher - Madison, who taught MedModerating - with another pair of trainees in tow.
All trainees and teachers made it to the entrance safely.

Nai smiled and said,"Hey guys, I'm Nai Tamarie. I am your headmistress. Feel fre to come to me about anything. Let's wait for the others before I tell you a bit more about your new home - Nightmare Academy."

Aiode Mantel | Bed - Mantel residence
Aiode woke up sweating. She'd had another strange dream tonight, and she didn't feel like sleeping. Apparently, the Universe agreed with Aiode's decision of a sleepless night as she heard a creak in the floorboards outside her door.

She'd received the acceptance mail, ofcourse. It stated that her teacher would pick her up. She's applied to Nightmare Academy when she discovered her power in calming anything that happened in her dream. Her parent thought it was to take advantage of the elevator system to college; truthfully, they didn't know half the story.

Her bedroom's doorknob turned and she picked up the bat lying under her bed. She held it tight and got ready to smash the intruder's face. However, it turned out to be her teacher. The mail had enclosed a picture, and the lady standing over her bed looked as pretty in real life as she had digitally.
"Aiode?" she asked. "Hi. I'm Ms. Madison. I'll be your teacher for MedModerating. Well, what are you waiting for then? Come along. I haven't got all night, you know. I need to pick up a 'Juniper' as well."

Without waiting for a reply, the teacher turned, and opened a portal. Just like that! Yeah, she did squeeze her eyes shut and make a funny whistling noise, but aside from that, she summoned the dark purple swirling vortex easily. However, she looked a little tired.

"Well? Come on then!"
Both student and teacher stepped into the portal. It closed behind them, and opened out again in front. Juniper sat on he bed, fidgeting. After confirming her identity, the teacher asked her to step in.

"Hi. I'm Aiode. You must be Juniper"
The portal had closed before them. Aiode, expecting the tunnel to open from behind, turned around. She was right. However, the minute the portal opened, water flooded in. All three tried to tread water, not realizing that they were underwater.

Luckily, all three managed to surface. They swam to the pprch of the Academy - the only visible object floating for miles around - and Aiode tried not to think about the bizarre purple of the sky.

The lady waiting for them at the porch welcomed them and called herself their headmistress. She requested them to wait for the others before she explained the Academy's system.
