Young Writers Society

Dreamy- approved (thanks for agreeing, it shall be interesting...)
gspp- Approved (though you knew that...)

Yay for approvals!

Ok, B-block is now open.
Orelia's dorm: B4.
Samantha's dorm: B5.

(Though depending how many applicants we get later, I may rearrange B-block to bunch people together. >.>)

Name: Corda

Gender: Female

Age: 18

Ancestor(s): Veran from Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons

Home: Labrynna

Alliance: Neutral with Evil leanings

Appearance: Quite tall and slender with pale teal skin and orange hair and eyes. She typically wears a plain, form-fitting dress of flowing silk with a matching capelet.

Personality: "Beware the quiet ones" quite aptly describes Corda. She is usually reserved and keeps to herself, watching for an opportunity to make some mischief. Although not intentionally malicious, Corda can get a bit carried away with her schemes. If you manage to befriend her, you'll find Corda to be quite opinionated, playful, and loyal to her heart.

Abilities:
Level 0: summons small creatures (snakes and insects) to do her bidding
Level 1: slight increase in spellcasting ability
Level 2: can alter parts of her appearance (partial transformation)
Level 3: can usually persuade others to listen, if not consider her proposals
Level 4: moderate increase in spellcasting ability
Level 5: can influence others to do her bidding
Level 6: complete transformation into fairy, snake, cockroach, or scorpion
Level 7: can slightly alter the flow of time
Level 8: complete possession of one person, and the ability to switch between people
Level 9: dramatic increase in spellcasting ability
Level 10: can temporarily stop time

Item(s): Corda keeps a collection of Mystery Seeds, which she can often be found studying in her spare time.

Sylvester, an eyelash viper, who still has his venom glands intact. Like all eyelash vipers, he tends to be more than a bit moody. Sylvester is more a pet than a familiar (though I suppose he could become a familiar later on).

Classes:
Anti-Villainy Counseling
Public Relations
Transformation
Spellcasting
Handling of Magical Objects
Sparring

Other: Corda is terrified of spiders. Even the smallest of spiders is enough to send her fleeing in terror.

HOLY CRAP A STORYBOOK.

(This, of course, marks the start of O-Week. In five days from now, enrolments will close.)

Yay enthusiasm!

First things first, Kyllorac, you are like SOOOOO approved. Your/Corda's dorm (for now) is B2.

I'm really happy so far with the posts overall, they've been funny and inclusive of other players. But I wonder if Dreamy's and Kineta's could be a little longer? (Don't worry, I know it's not always easy to think of content, I've done the very short post thing in my early days. But remember we're aiming for around 200 words in this SB. ^^)

Another general reminder, everyone: Classes haven't started yet. XD This week is just for characters to get to know each other, and get used to life at the Academy. At the end of O-Week I'll post the timetable I've made up, and we can start learning and meeting teachers and stuff. So it pains me terribly to ask this, but could a couple of people who've mentioned classes make a tiny tiny edit in their posts? Actually, never mind that. I'll figure out something to post. XD

(I'm real sorry, I don't blame you guys at all. ^^ I know there's a huge heap of rules and stuff to remember for this SB. But that's just because I want us all to enjoy it to the max! )

Hey guys, from now on, put an approx time on the head of your post with your name, so we can figure out the order of events. Don't worry about editing old posts, but if we could do it from now on it would be awesome =D

For example:

Kumo (3.45pm, sparring class)

=D

Kyllorac, I have brought Corda in. If you didn't get my post, Corda summoned the snake Bart tripped on.

My goodness you people posted a lot. XD So much reading to catch up on. @_@ This is what I get for being stuck in class all day. XP

That's a reference pic for why Gratian got confused here:

I assume this room layout is fine, but if anyone thinks it should be changed, do point it out.

Dreamy> Is the unconscious girl in your post meant to be gsppcrock10's character? 'Cause she's at the cafeteria with Apple'a and my characters.

(If it's just meant to be some random student, ignore me. ^^)

Lumierre, dorm room is B1.

And I hate to ask this, but Dreamy, your last post is a little short. If you're having trouble inserting yourself into the other characters' plots, try posting in the DT; I expect some of the other evil-type characters will want to get to know Orelia, and you could figure something out by discussing it with other authors; that is what the thread's here for. Do you think you could edit any more length into your recent post?

yeah, I'm sorry.... I just haven't really found any characters who seem to be compatible with Ordelia, and everyone seems to be in some sort of scramble... with a snake and a chicken? I was confused... anyway, I'll try to make my posts longer in the future. *promises*. Could someone perchance walk around the corner? I could get in some interaction there.

Fear my monster post! Rawr!
