Thanks, @EverLight. <3

I was about to write up my first post, but then I wasn't sure who I was going to include in it - I'd love to have some other characters show up and interact with Eli if it's possible! I know @SirenCymbaline already has plans for her post, so I thought I'd ask here if anyone had plans for theirs, too.

(For example, since Enid works in the nurse's office and Eli is going to end up there during her post, I'll probably have the injury that brings them there happen near the end of my post.)

I can help set up future plans, or just have fun little antics of your characters in the background.

So what are everyone's ideas for their posts? This first round of posts is mostly to introduce your character, so there won't really be anything building up towards the main plot of the story.

That's definitely okay with me, @EverLight! Let me know if there's any way I can help you set up your schemes in my first post, or if you have any questions about whatever your Super Secret Plans™ are and how they work with the mechanics of the SB as a whole.

I was planning for Nyx to start off with playing a prank on a newbie student who just joined the school and possibly even add a bit of things she does every day.

Also, what month in the school year is it? And is it September-July or January-December?

I have a habit of writing stories around the same time it is when I'm writing them, so I'd say that we're in early March right now.

(I know it's the end of March, but that gives us some more time to squeeze things in before the end of the school year. Having it in March also gives a sense of urgency to solve what's going on at Ravenwood.)

And the calendar is September to June, with a December, February and April break.

I was going to start plotting the round of posts that come after this one, but I spent too much time working on a summary of each of the characters instead. I'll probably come up with that plot in the next few days.

In the meantime, come check out the newly made pad for this storybook! It has some short summaries of the characters, as well as what their number is in the school mysteries.

The first post is finally up! I apologize for taking so long to write it.

My original plan was to include a few of the other mysteries, but I realized about midway through that it was going to be too long. I really wanted to include a scene with Eli and a new apparition to show how rumors could affect apparitions - both with their creation and changing them.

I also wanted to include the other two members of the first mystery. Neither one of them will have a major role in this storybook, but they're an important part of Eli's life and have been around longer than any of the other apparitions.

If it wasn't clear from my post, Alden represents the past, while Dawn represents the future. Alden is an old man; Dawn is a young girl. Those ideas were taken from the manga this is based on, but the names and personalities are entirely my own.

Now that my post is up, who wants to post next?
