Perhaps the leader wouldn't be really determined at all, it just kind of emerges (We could have a few of the stronger characters sort of fighting for dominance if we did that.) And the test determines the overall ranking of the team. The ones with better scores get certain luxuries that lower ranking teams don't. More comfortable rooms, better weapons, things like that. These are the students who show the most promise, after all.

We could also not have any student be an actual leader at all. They could have an official from the school sort of working as their coach/commander/babysitter. This would eliminate the whole problem, while maybe giving us a new character to mess around with. And there could be a person withing the group still that people just kind of listen to. Tell me what you guys like better.

The coach idea sounds like the best. Because just letting a leader "emerge" seems a little sketchy if we don't have anything to base it off of. So yeah. I'd vote for the coach idea (:

@Jexy @Vellichor @Chaser and @TheForgottenKing if you guys don't have any questions or objections, I think the coach idea is what we'll go with.

Posted for Crow!
An answer to a possible question:
Yes, The "Arabs" are just Evangeline and Will talking Arabic together. And actually, even though she doesn't really conform to traditions, Eva is of Arabic ethnicity. Most likely, she just taught the language to Will while they were trainees together.

Also guys, how would you feel for shooting for Most popular SB for this next month's Storybook Newsletter? It would take a lot of work and commitment, but I think we could pull it off. I'm sure I can come up with some sort of incentive if we pull it off.I was thinking FE screensaver art.

I will certainly pitch in for that goal! Though my loyalties may be tested with When the World is Dying........ We shall see, because I cannot possibly pick!

So who's planning on posting next? I think what will happen now is that they'll go back and meet Cain, who'll put them on a strict training regimen, etc. Does anyone want to figure out Cain's character before we continue?

I think only @Chaser and @TheForgottenKing have to post for the first round??

And personally, I'm imagining Cain as a large(ish) black guy with a boisterous, loud, authoritative personality. In my mind, he has an English accent XD but that's just me.

Nacaruto is actually a Native American last name. But the personality sounds just right. They'd want someone they were sure they could trust and was able to keep this group of rebels in line, so he'd have to be a big, strong guy who doesn't take any crap.
There could also be the possibility of him being a double agent, and with that have two different sides of his personality.

And I think we'd better skip them for now. It's been a few weeks and they still haven't posted. They're probably really busy with life. I think we'd better skip them for this round and just go on with the timeline until they're more ready to post.

If its fine with you guys, I'm gonna start working on a post for Evangeline, but any of you can post before me if you get anything done first, and feel free to keep on contributing your ideas about Cain.@Chaser and @TheForgottenKing, I think it would be best to start the next round now, since a new development in the plot was brought up in Crow's post that the other characters can contribute to. Also, we've gotta keep those posts coming out if we want to win Most Popular! We've got this, guys!
