But if you changed the name to something beginning with an A, and then add a Y word at the end...


The initials would spell ACADEMY... That would kick ass!!

edit: Oh shoot! I was wrong... you'd need to swap the C and the D, but it would still be cool if that's what the initials spelled... We should really make that work! lol!

Rusalka 07-15-2008 06:57 AM

I'd been trying lol.. Just failed to find anything in my little mind that sounds cool.
Have been searching a little too.

Hum.. as for what has been suggested.. I can't say I'm for or against it. lol >...< I'm no help am I?

Merri; Lol you're right.. xD Would be an interesting name for sure.

Insane Cricket 07-15-2008 06:59 AM

I kinda like my name, but the only reason why I like it is because I was trying to put in the name of the school what it was about, which is presenting a vast range of students from all different backgrounds with a diverse education.

I like Merri's idea to make the initials spell ACADEMY though.

Edit: I'm working on a reply for our 1x1. I had to look up a couple words for that, too. ^^;;

Though I'm not sure if I'm going to use the words I needed. I'll probably just swap them out for easier words, because I'm a little drowsy for some reason...

Merrihop 07-15-2008 08:41 AM

Alright then! After brainstorming and puzzling. Aldric looks like a lovely choice for the founder's A name,lol!

So what about Aldric Collaborative Acadademy for Distinguished and Ethnically Miscellaneous Youths?

Insane Cricket 07-15-2008 08:49 AM

I like it. <3 -NodNod-

So, time to get started on classes then!

I'm going to go ahead and throw Z into the academy. I don't see why the three founders should have to add the roleplay sample, seeing as we're the ones founding it. XD

I might remove him from it later, but I've been playing around with this idea for a little bit and I think I've pretty much adapted him to fit. -Nods-

Student or teacher: English Teacher
Character's name: Zaitsu Siiya
Gender: Male
Age: Looks to be twenty, is actually twenty-seven.
Appearance (Please try to describe with words. If you must use a picture, link it.) : Hair is somewhat short and always at least a little messy, and the purest shade of black. His eyes are bright red and often times seem to give off a soft glow (not menacing, not evil, just a slight, soft glow). Roughly 5'11" with a small build, though muscular without being obnoxiously so. (In other words, toned, but not like a bodybuilder.) His skin is very pale, but not ghastly white.
Race (Keep in mind, humans don't have powers) : Demon/angel hybrid, though maintains a human appearance. His race is known by only a handful of ACADEMY staff members.
Anything else you might want to add: Rip him apart based upon vague details regarding him (or at all) and I'll make you regret you ever heard his name. (A warning provoked by an earlier event where this character was shredded by an uninformed critic who never even stops to consider the heavy, deep symbolism I embed in my characters.)

Toxicbob2000 07-15-2008 02:22 PM

So...should I have listed what class my character teaches then in the application? Because my understanding was the available classes had not yet been established...or was that just for students? Is it okay for teacher characters?

Insane Cricket 07-15-2008 03:46 PM

Student or teacher: Student
Character's name: Sasha Morgan
Gender: Male
Age: Seventeen
Appearance (Please try to describe with words. If you must use a picture, link it.) : He stands at 5'8" with light brown hair that goes down to his earlobes and is generally styled with the ends spiking slightly away from his face. His skin is slightly tanned (very slightly) and his eyes are a piercing shade of blue. His body type is that of a classic thin geek. He sometimes wears glasses and temporarily dyes the very tips of his hair.
Race (Keep in mind, humans don't have powers) : Like Malory, I don't know if he's human or not. That's something they won't tell me. =S
Bio (Optional, but don't go and give us the character's whole history) : Malory's best and only friend, he sees a side of Malory that most don't get to see, though he himself doesn't get to see much of Malory's true nature, and knows nothing of his friend's past before arriving at the school three years ago where they met.

He has a gentle nature which can turn aggressive in an instant if someone crosses him. He gets irritable when people try to pry into Malory's life by asking him all sorts of questions about him.
Anything else you might want to add: He loves to pick on the students in lower grades. He considers it their right of passage to put up with tormenting their first year.

Toxicbob2000 07-18-2008 05:39 PM

Hmmm...the thread seems inactive. If it's not a problem for anyone, I'd like Mr. Allerdyce to teach the accelerated/honors English classes, an advanced lit. class, and philosophy. If anybody else really wanted these, it's a big school so I'm sure several teachers could teach the same subjects.

Insane Cricket 08-11-2008 08:41 PM

-Thunks thread with a reviving wand-

Sorry, I just couldn't think of anything else to add for a while. And I really do want to get this roleplay up and running. I guess we need to find some more people who are interested in this idea.

Toxic, I don't think your teacher should take on so many classes to teach. Sorry. I was thinking maybe two classes max for any one teacher. Or maybe three, depending.

Hrm. So! You guys still interested in doing this roleplay? I know I sure as hell am. I feel really bad for being quiet in here for so long. Because I might've fucked up the chances of us ever getting this roleplay off the ground.

Toxicbob2000 08-11-2008 08:45 PM

I'd be cool with just English and Literature then for Mr. Allerdyce.

Insane Cricket 08-11-2008 08:56 PM

You mean for your horribly Stu-named character? XD

Hrm, well I'm planning on having two of my characters teaching English classes... And my other characters would be in their classes and not the classes of your character. We could always have the option of putting them in more than one of the same class with different teachers...

Are you only going to play one character?

Toxicbob2000 08-11-2008 09:01 PM

Yeah, one character is enough for me to keep track of I believe. And yes, Wolfgang Allerdyce is about as Stu a name as you can get, without sounding Japanese-ish...haha.

Insane Cricket 08-11-2008 09:20 PM

Why do I get this feeling that you aren't going to take this seriously and you're going to end up making your character do the same shit your characters did in the last roleplay we had together, and in the end destroy the structure of time and space?

Toxicbob2000 08-11-2008 09:30 PM

Because I tend to give that impression...but I swear to not attempt any utter derailing of any plot you folks collectively develop. Mr. Allerdyce isn't really a spotlight-grabbing character, if that was your concern. He's more of a supporting character, kind of odd set dressing almost...haha, the thing that happened last time was half my not knowing what the heck was going on/frustration that nearly every character had some dark and horrible past their players actually expected not only ME but my characters to be interested in as well.

Number one: I'm here at the beginning, in the OOC, so I should know what's going on.

Number two: I'm not going to get frustrated again because I've lightened up about that whole issue.

Edit: Time and space shall also be observed and respected

Insane Cricket 08-11-2008 09:34 PM

Well, just remember that if you fall behind in the posts of the roleplay that you need to read everything to catch up before posting again, so we might not risk the integrity of the entire damn roleplay.

Toxicbob2000 08-11-2008 09:36 PM

Righto. I've gotten much better at that, I read some months worth of an already started Roleplay on another site before I requested to join it, so I think I'm improving in all said horrific habits...I should definitely be able to get at least a post per day in anyway, so no worries.

Insane Cricket 08-11-2008 09:41 PM

Ah, now see, that's a problem. Because that stunts the whole roleplay if too many people are waiting for a reply to happen. That's when we get time differences between characters movements and things get confusing. I demand more consistency than that, because I hate roleplays that get like that.

Celestial Dawn 08-11-2008 09:41 PM

Can I join? The roleplay sounds cool.

Insane Cricket 08-11-2008 09:43 PM

I'm sorry, but to join you need to fill out the form, as is made obvious by the form's presence.

You'll also have to contribute to the planning of the roleplay.

Celestial Dawn 08-11-2008 09:45 PM

Ah. Alright, I'll think about the plan, then I'll post it and the form and all when I've got something. Thanks!

For a play-by-post roleplay one meaningful post per day is pretty consistent...I'll do more if I'm fortunate enough to be online when other people are posting.

Insane Cricket 08-11-2008 10:41 PM

Not really. See, if several users are online at the same time and roleplaying with each other, the passage of time continues moving. There won't be a specific post order (who posts before/after who) so it's not very consistent to only have one post per day.

Toxicbob2000 08-12-2008 01:34 AM

In other news: Your signature now dances correctly.

Insane Cricket 08-12-2008 02:01 AM

Glad it does for you. It doesn't for me. >.<

Insane Cricket 12-03-2008 05:42 PM

Alright, let's bring this back to life. I still really really want this roleplay to happen, and to make a new thread for it would be making a repeat thread. I asked Kale if it was alright to necro this.

So, anyone interested in this roleplay idea? >.<
