-Introduction-
Spoiler: Click to Toggle the Spoiler.
You walk down a somewhat dark tunnel, light every so often by a soft yellow light. A half-step behind you walks a woman, wearing light colored robes. Ahead of you appears a small floating orb. It opens slightly, revealing a red eye-like lens.

"Hello, my name is CR-879," it says in a plesant voice. "I am here to congradulate you on becoming one of the select few to join us at the Palace! More importantly, I am here to tell you more about the Palace.-"

As the machine speaks, he bring a hand up to feel the slim round metal collar around your neck. It seems slightly warm to the touch. As you run a hand against it, you realize once again that there is no seam from where they snapped it on.

"-As you may know, the Palace has been here for the past two hundred years. For the past two hundred years, we have been aiding children and young people who have been born with the Gift. To keep you from falling behind in classes that you will be missing over the next few years, machines have been built into each bed that will stimulate your mind, giving you the the information that you would normally recieve at a steady pace.-"

You feel slightly like making a remark when it speaks of "the next few years," but decide you're better off not doing so. As you come across an intersection of the tunnels, you look down one side, noticing two young boys standing near a tree, wearing rather expensive looking clothing. The woman, the Sister, who had been a half step behind steps forward, blocking your view. You turn your attention back to the orb.

"-Also, to protect students from the more dangerous areas of the Palace, there have been shields placed that restrict access to certain areas. It would be recommended not to try to break these shields, as some are much more dangerous than others.-"

You let the machine ramble off the prerecorded message as you think about what life will be like. After several minutes of thinking, you realize the orb has shut again and is leading you in silence. After a short time, you notice a light coming through the tunnel. As you exit the tunnel, a cluster of buildings larger that you have ever seen before comes into view.

"Welcome to the Palace of the Prophets."

Spoiler: Click to Toggle the Spoiler.

-History-
Spoiler: Click to Toggle the Spoiler.
The year is 2350. Late in the 21st Century, a great war was fought over natural resources. However, as the war raged, the planet came into peril. There was an imminent meteor shower that, unless stopped, could easily destroy a large portion of the planet's population. An international peace treaty was signed, seeing the danger more important, and the World Defense Force, or WDF, was formed. The WDF forced most countries to surrender any weapons that could do any good for them, such as atomic and nuclear bombs, and used them in an attempt to stop the meteors. Most of the meteors were destroyed, but the number that still hit the planet created mass chaos and death.

After many years, life returned mostly to normal. The peace treaty held, and the world was safe from war. Scientists eventually found ways to create machines that ran off of water and hydrogen and to grow plants much faster, ending much of the resource crisis.

Nobody knows exactly when or how the Palace came to be. Sometime within the first fifty years of the peace treaty, the Palace was found in the remains of Australia, which had been nearly destroyed by meteors. They said that women were there, helping return the land to the way it once was; they called themselves the Sisters of Light. There was much speculation over these Sisters. People feared them as much as they were in awe of them; what caused the most of both of these was the magic, the Gift, the Sisters' commanded. The Sisters seemed to only use the Gift for benevolent reasons, but people still feared them.

Another reason the people awed and feared the Sisters was because of the Prophet. The Prophet seemed to be the only man living within the Palace, and he seemed to be of great power; he predicted the deaths of powerful leaders, the discovery of cures, and the spreading of the Gift.

The Sisters began to warn people of the Prophet's vision, stating that the youth of the world would begin to get painful headaches and turn ill; these were the symptoms of the Gift. Soon, as the Prophet had predicted, children across the planet became ill with the symptoms. The world government thought the Sisters were doing this, and began to plan to destroy the Palace; however, when the children of several of the leaders became ill with the symptoms, the plans were changed. Whether it be coincidence or not, the Palace remained standing.

Now, in the year 2350, you are a young teenager. Several weeks ago, a Sister came to your home, stating that the Gift was to shortly awaken in you. They placed a thin round metal collar, what they called the Rada'Han, around your neck. Over the past few weeks, they took you across the lands to the Palace of the Prophets. (This is where the RP will begin).

-Technology-
Spoiler: Click to Toggle the Spoiler.
Being in the year 2350, technology has obviously evolved. While teleportation and forms of personal flight have been achieved, they have been deemed too dangerous and have been banned from all commercial use. Cloning has also been deemed dangerous and has been only allowed to be used on flora and livestock. Although personal flight is kept from use, levitation has been reached and is used for lighter objects, such as small-motored vehicles and robots. As already said, robots have been built and, similar to vehicles, run on water and hydrogen. They are most commonly used for simple household use, such as cleaning, or for other simple jobs.

With the forming of the peace treaty, most weapons were destroyed; the only weapons similar to what once existed are handguns and hunting weapons. Laser technology has been deemed dangerous as well, only being used now for planetary defense and educational reasons. Most weapons are now electrical, used against machines that go haywire or as self-defense weapons.

NOTE: Most technology at the Palace of the Prophets is older; besides robots, the most commonly seen technology is the machines connected to beds, allowing one to learn as they sleep.

There is very likely loopholes and such in the History and Missing pieces in Technology, so please forgive me if you find any and I welcome you to point it out.

-The Gift-
Spoiler: Click to Toggle the Spoiler.
The Gift, as the Sisters call it, is an ability that a person is born with. However, it is unable to be determined if one is able to use it until it awakens itself. Although it has been heard of the Gift awakening early in a person, it most often awakens in their early teen years (14-16). When the Gift manifests itself, the child will begin to feel ill. They will have painful headaches that get worse by the day, until they can no longer move. Within a month of the Gift's awakening, the headaches will kill the child. The only way to stop this is for them to learn to use the Gift.

-The Rada'Han-
The Rada'Han is a device that helps ease the pain of the Gift when it first manifests. However, the Rada'Han itself will not save you. If you do not learn to control the Gift, it will slowly kill you, much as the headaches do. It is unknown how the Rada'Han works. The only ones able to remove the Rada'Han are the Sisters of the Light and the one who wears it; to do so, however, takes many many years. While the Rada'Han is on, the wearer's Han is mostly blocked off, giving them little power and keeping them from doing rash or foolish things with it.

-The Calling-
While the Gift is the person's ability to use magic, the Calling is what they are to do with it. For example, even if someone is not born with the Gift of Subtractive Magic (read -Magic- for more), they may still gain it through the Calling and many extra years of training.
Examples of Callings: Sisters of Light, Prophet, etc. (list of current Callings is under -The Gifted-)


[Close]


-Han-
Spoiler: Click to Toggle the Spoiler.

"Additive Magic uses what is there and adds to it, or uses it somehow... I use whatever I need in nature to change things. I can change a bug into a flower, I can change a fear into a monster, I can make a broken bone knit, I can take heat from the air around us and add to it, multiply it, into wizard's fire... I can make my beard grow. But I can't make it ungrow... I can lift or crush or move the rock, but I can't make it vanish. Where would it go? That's called Subtractive Magic: the undoing of things... All Magic from this world is Additive Magic... Subtractive Magic is from the underworld... Subtractive Magic is the counter to Additive. As night is to day. Yet it is all part of the same thing..."
-Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander, Wizard's First Rule


There are two sides to the Gift and, as the Sisters call the magic, Han: Additive and Subtractive.

-Additive Magic-
Spoiler: Click to Toggle the Spoiler.
As explained above, Additive Magic is the use of things that already exists. It takes what is there and adds to it.


[Close]


-Subtractive Magic-
Spoiler: Click to Toggle the Spoiler.
Subtractive Magic is the magic of the Underworld. Only one person in the two hundred years the Palace has existed here has had the Gift for Subtractive Magic; very few others have had the Calling for it.

[Close]


-Shields and Webs-
Spoiler: Click to Toggle the Spoiler.
-Shields-
By adding to the amount of air within a secluded space, a Sister can form a shield. This shield can be used to keep a person within a room, block a weaker form of Han, or block off a hall or area. Shields can also be made of the other elements; however, air is the strongest and thus is most often used. Shields can also have certain effects to them, such as sending pain into anyone that touches it or setting off traps.

-Webs-
A wizard's web can be used for many different things. Powerful wizard's webs can hide something or someone's appearance, erase a memory from all who ever knew it, and other things. Webs can also be used to check if someone entered an area; quite often, Sisters will set up webs in entrances. If someone walks through the web, it breaks. If they notice it and try to repair it, their Han is in it as well, making it obvious who went through.

[Close]


-Wizard's Fire and Wizard's Life Fire-
Spoiler: Click to Toggle the Spoiler.
Wizard's Fire is a special type of fire, extremely powerful. It has the power to burn through most anything at full strength. Those who have seen Wizard's Fire describe it as "a ball of yellow and blue liquid flame." A wizard can control the movement of his fire, making it shoot down corridors and turn.

Wizard's Life Fire is very different from Wizard's Fire. The Life Fire is made by sacrificing your own life to create it. The Life Fire is extremely powerful, capable of killing anyone within a twenty foot distance. Wizard's Life Fire is also unique in the ashes it creates; if a wizard uses his Life Fire for shelfish reasons, such as escaping pain, the ashes left from it will taste bitter, while a wizard who does it to protect others creates sweet ashes and soot.

-The Gifted-
Spoiler: Click to Toggle the Spoiler.
There are many different Callings for those with the Gift. The different types of Gifted (so far in this Roleplay) are:
The Prophet**:
Prophets are very rare, coming perhaps once in every thousand years. They recieve visions at random, each coming with a spoken phrase to it. Should another Prophet hear or read the phrase, they will recieve the same vision. A Prophet can also send the vision into another's mind; however, they rarely ever do so, as it can injure the person's mind beyond repair. Many of the prophecies, however, have multiple "forks," meaning that depending on what one person does, one of many different prophecies can happen. Because of this, many prophecies are useless, as they are already on false forks. Prophecies are also rarely how they sound, often twisting into ways that one would never think.

Wizards:
Wizards are men that have learned to control their Gift, as well as young men who are attempting to. Their form of the Gift is slightly different than that of a Sorceresses; however, they are still alike in many ways.

War Wizard*:
A War Wizard is a wizard who has control over both Additive and Subtractive Magic. They are an extremely powerful force, capable of crippling a weaker nation on their own. It is said that war wizards acquire strange appetites; the most obvious of this is their sickness of meat. There has only been one born with the Calling of the war wizard since the Palace came into this world.

Sorceresses:
Sorceresses are women who have gained control over the Gift and younger women who are trying to. All the Sisters at the Palace of the Prophets are sorceresses. They are similar to wizards in many ways; however, their Han is slightly different to control. Many sorceresses at the Palace are also Sisters-in-Training.

Witches*:
Witches are women who have powerful control of their Han. Little is known about them, as only a handful have lived in the past two hundred years. It is believed that they have visions similar to that of a Seer; however, this has yet to be proven.

Seers**:
Seers are women who, from a young age, have visions of the future. Unlike Prophets, who see visions of the futures of many, Seers see visions of people only when they see them in person. For example, a Prophet might see the birth of a future dicator without ever meeting the child, while a Seer will only know once they have come face-to-face with them.

*-NPC class. Very unlikely they will become playable throughout the RP.
**- NPC class. Somewhat likely they will become playable during the RP (only one of each)

-The Sisters-
Spoiler: Click to Toggle the Spoiler.
The Sisters of Light or, as most people call them, the Sisters are powerful sorceresses that use their magic to aid young people with the Gift learn to control it. While at the Palace, a Sister-in-Training is assigned to each of the Gifted to help them whenever they need help. If the Gifted passes the many tests and trials of becoming a wizard or sorceress, the Sister-in-Training becomes a full fledged Sister.

One of the many jobs for the Sisters is to go out and find those born with the Gift. When the Gift manifests itself in a child, the Prophet knows, and anywhere from one to three Sisters are sent out to retreive him/her. Upon finding the child, any other children in the family are watched, as it appears that the Gift is somehow connected to genetics.

It is unknown where the Sisters are from; whenever asked, they simply say they came from Home. They also seem not to know how they came to this world. What makes it even more mysterious is that the Sisters, no matter what test they are put through, appear to be human.

Over the past two hundred years, many have come to accept the religion of the Sisters as their own. The Sisters believe in two powers: The Creator and the Keeper. The Creator is all good; he is what makes everything that ever was, is, and ever shall be. The Keeper, or the Keeper of the Dead, is the force that destroys and kills; the only thing ever created by the Keeper was Subtractive Magic.

The true goal of the Sisters is to do the Creators work, through any means they can. While many Sisters remain at the Palace and help the Gifted to do this, several have gone off into the world to help others who need their help.

As time has gone on, many young Gifted girls have gone on to live lifes as Sisters at the Palace. Currently, around 80% of the Sisters at the Palace are Gifted women from this world.

-The Prelate-
The Prelate is the leader of the Sisters of Light. She is marked by a gold ring with a sun-shaped pattern.

-The Palace-
Spoiler: Click to Toggle the Spoiler.
The Palace of the Prophets is a large cluster of buildings; many of the towers around the Palace are at least ten or more stories tall. There is a large courtyard surrounding the Palace from all sides, with a small river running through it. Around the courtyard is a large metal structure filled with tunnels leading to small, private sanctuaries; this structure, the Palace Walls, marks the entrance to the Palace of the Prophets.

Ever since the Palace came to be, there has been a series of spells over it. However, there are only two known by most who live there. The first spell is a barrier, which keeps anyone with a Rada'Han around their neck from going much further than a mile out into the country around Tanimura. If one wearing a Rada'Han touches it, it feels like running into a solid wall, one which cannot be broken. The second spell, known by many around the world, affects the aging process of the people who live in the Palace. It is said that for every fifteen years everyone outside the city ages, the people within the Palace age one. Though it is unknown exactly how slow they age, it is show that this spell also affects those who live around the Palace, within Tanimura and the surrounding countryside.

The Palace itself is very lavish; each person within the Palace has their own room, filled with expensive clothes; the wizards- and sorceresses-in-training are given a bowl of gold and silver that they are free to spend on whatever they choose; if the bowl is ever near empty, the Sisters refill it.

While most wizards and sorceresses in the Palace are allowed to go anywhere within the barrier, there are some who are not. Wizards and Sorceresses near the end of their training, along with certain others, are restricted to certain areas within the Palace. The Prophet, for example, is rarely to be let out of his room; the prophecies he speaks are too dangerous for anyone but the Sisters to hear themselves.

While there are rules against "vulgar behavior" at the Palace, the Sisters do approve of relationships between sorceresses and wizards. The main reason for this is because it seems there is a higher chance of two with the Gift of having a child born with it as well.

-The City of Tanimura-
Outside of there lies a large city named Tanimura. It is in the shape of a large circle, the Palace at its heart. The city is filled with rich and noble people, paying high prices to live there. There are many large clothing stores, selling everything from the average to the outlandish, their prices varying as much as their styles. Many things within Tanimura are highly overpriced, as the sellers know the Gifted can buy whatever they want, as the Palace pays for everything for them.

-Side Notes-
Many of the names (Rada'Han, Sisters of Light, Prelate, Tanimura, Palace of Prophets, etc.), quotes, and some other elements of this RP come from the Sword of Truth book series by Terry Goodkind. (buy them. read them. love them.)

I might choose a Co-DM once the story starts off. However, for now, there is none.

Suggestions are welcome.

-Edits-
3-18: Added NPCs, Added small pieces to different sections (most notably -The Sisters-).

Wow, that's a lot of stuff to read. I skimmed some of it and it looked good, but I'll read the rest later. After that, I'll decide if I want to apply. tongue.gif

Name: Vane Lory
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Appearance: About 5'10 tall, has medium length messy black hair and bright green eyes.
Clothing: It changes. Preference goes to buttoned shirts and loose fitting pants, usual a casual wear in the older fashion styles.
Calling: Wizard
History: He is not the most sociable guy however he likes to watch people and he only approaches others if he finds them interesting enough. This had him classed as a weirdo during his middle school and high school years. He is exceptionally smart but scores average grades due to never bothering to study because he classes it as a 'waste of his time'.

Yeah, it's a bit daunting, and what's even worse is that, having only written a few basic ideas of it down, I forgot quite a bit of other things I had planned to put in. I might add it later though.

Rene, accepted.

Hoping to add the NPCs shortly.

I assume no player characters can use subtractive magic.
Aliath
Name: Jake Campbell
Age: 15
Gender: Male
Appearance: He is tall and thin, but somewhat muscular. He has longish brown hair and deep green eyes.
Clothing: A blue sweatshirt and dark blue jeans.
Calling: Wizard, Additive.
History: Very acceptant of the fact he had to leave home, since he is often beaten by his father (who drinks allot). He comes from a small household in eastern Canada.
Other: He's very shy.
Xtel
Accepted. Note, though, that you don't have to put Additive in the app, as that's all that the Gifted have (besides Carlisle... check NPCs)

Added a few NPCs. Still a few to go. Added some extra things to -The Sisters- that are worth checking out. Also, as I'm likely to run out of ideas for Sisters, you can submit an app for your Sister-in-Training! (check -The Sisters- to find out what I'm talking about) I might retain some control over them, however, to keep it in control and to keep the story somewhat on path.

QUOTE

Nope, sorry. Might make a change on that as we move ahead (once you become a fully trained wizard/sorceress, you can continue training to learn it) but for now it's a negative.
The Man From Outer Space
Lol, I'd love to join, but I said this earlier, I'm being VERY careful about which ones I join. I'm only placing myself in about 3 RP's at a time, so if I have a spare after, Halo and The Belgariad (new RP by me [not yet made]) I'll join looks good. It's also based on similar prospects, such as the use of magic.

Eg:

Your system works similar, except there is a way to subtractive magic.

In the Belgariad, the system deals with additive magic ONLY. Not even gods have the ability to permanately remove something. For example, you can make whatever you want, but should you choose to permanetly erradicate something, the will you have gathered will invert itself back upon you, and inturn, make YOU dissapear.

Anyway, it's totally irellevant, but dropping hints might help people to understand, when the RP comes out.

It's also an idea you can use, although subtractive magic is particularly strange.



I do have ONE relevant question though. Can a subtractive magician create things aswell? Or are they restricted to only removing things. That would prove very bad for any enemies...

Be not.

Poof gone. Lol, anyway, unless I find a better RP, expect to see me around. (in here.)

There has yet to be one born with only Subtractive magic, as the Gift originates from the Creator; thus, it would seem impossible for the Keeper to give Subtractive Magic to someone without Additive already being there. (might change that if it seems to work somehow in the RP... already have an idea.)

In other words, as long as a wizard with Subtractive magic has Additive, they can create as well.

Hope to see you in here with us, Mfos!

Name: Jay Ramel
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Appearance: Averaged size, has short brown hair. His eyes are a very light blue, and almost white (reason below).
Clothing:A brown jacket with a green shirt with a skull on the shoulder in black. Wears dark jeans and brown shoes, with the laces hidden in the shoes. Has a necklace that he always wears, it has a figure of an owl.
Calling: Wizard
History: Loved to draw, even from a young age. He was abnormally good at it, two. He managed to make a somewhat decent Mona Lisa in the 7th grade. But, after a tragic accident when he was a freshman in high school, he was left somewhat blind. Thanks to his abnormal talent in drawing, he can now see various objects through his blindness. He can see lines. What he sees is basically a chalk outline in blue chalk, but some things he can't see. He only sees a general human forms instead of every detail, in a blue outline. The only thing he can see perfectly is his sketchbook. (IF CURE TO BLINDNESS: His family couldn't afford to have his eyes fixed, seeing as his entire family was barely surviving off of welfare(or whatever funding people get without jobs in those times))
Other: Always carries around a sketchbook. In fact, he has at least 7 in his backpack at all times, which he carried with him as he left for the palace.

I've always wanted to play a blind character.

I'll start working on an opening post... It'll be kinda short I presume.

Oh yeah, sorry. Musta made a typo there. laugh.gif

Still need to remove the machete part before I accept it. Check my last post to see why.
Leo Crimson
Sorry, I missed the 24th century part. What kind of weapons would be appropriate for this time?
Xtel
There aren't any weapons allowed at the Palace, but most weapons are electric based, such as tasers or "shock-sticks," which would be an electric-charged short pole-like weapon. There are still knives and such, but they are rarely used as weapons.
Leo Crimson
Ok, no problemo. Ready to start when you are. smile.gif

Xtel, I have a question for you: Have there been any Gifts that are linked with an object someone has?

If Yes, I'll PM you why. If No, then my reason is useless and I'd just be wasting you time giving you it.
Xtel
Objects can be enchanted and given slight power through the Gift. For something truly amazing or powerful, it would require a wizard to give their life to create it, but if it's something small, it could work. I was thinking that Mr. Bone might use that too with his "family heirloom" thing.

If you've got a different idea, PM me it, and I'll think about it.

Clothing: Changes, but usually wears light colors, but not very bright or eye-catching. Rena NEVER wears short-sleeved clothing, since she is very photosensitive and dislikes the sun.

Xtel
Yeah, I've been waiting for a post so I could put it up without editing it in... It's kinda on the spot, since I'm at my aunt and uncle's for the weekend... here ya go! (Blood Angel, accepted)

IC: Cal stood in a small group of new students just inside the Palace Walls; they were at the edge of a large courtyard. A short distance away was a small river flowing beneath the Palace Walls. No doubt it's blocked off beneath the walls, to keep us from trying to escape. He tried to think of why one would want to escape from this place; everything was paid for, you didn't need to study, you could do mostly whatever you wanted, and you got to learn to use magic. If anything would be missing, it would be parents... Dunno who'd be missing them for too long. An older woman in a darker dress was telling the students about the Rada'Han and their new lives at the Palace, though he wasn't really paying any attention. He looked around the small group of other students; all of them were about his age. After several more minutes of daydreaming, the Sister cleared her throat, bringing back his attention.

"So, in other words, you are free to do what you wish while you're here. As long as you follow the rules and are at the Palace during your training sessions, you should be alright. If you have any questions, ask me or one of the other Sisters. If not, go and explore, make some friends, or do something else. Oh, and welcome to the Palace."

OOC: Yeah, the opening IC is a fail... It always is for me... The training sessions take place in one of the sanctuaries. In the sessions, a Sister places her Han into your Rada'Han, attempting to help stimulate the Gift in you. After several sessions, the Gift should begin to awaken. There are three sessions a day.

Random, yes, important, maybe. Again, opening=fail.
Leo Crimson
IC: As the Sister ended her speech, Leo decided to try and make some friends. Examining the Palace, he tried not to think of how much work it would have taken to build. Lowering his eyes, he approached another student, who had also been looking around. "Hi there," he said cheerfully. "What's your name?"

OOC: Sorry for the short post; I couldn't think much of anything.
Luna
IC: Rena had been a bit bored by the Sister's speech, and so decided to try avoid the freaking sun. She ducked under the crowd of students, finding them a fair parasol, before getting bored again. Closing her piercing blue eyes as to not get sun blindness, she attempted to maneuver through the crowd. A few moments later, she bumped into someone.
"Sorry," Rena muttered, not even attempting to open her eyes.

Ooc: Could we meet up somehow? With your current character, Xtel, or you, Leo?
Aliath
OoC: Let's assume that was me.

IC: Someone bumped into Jake, he spun around, facing a girl. She was a little shorter than he was, and with piercing blue eyes. She quickly apologized.

"That's fine," said Jake. A sly smile formed on his face. "I'm Jake, and you are?"

Not to point at anything, but you might want to reduce the age a bit, make some history, do more then "like my avatar" and I doubt that a smoking person would be able to be in the Palace. Plus, we don't even know if they exist anymore.

I have to agree. You didn't even list a history =S

Above all although it's fine to base some things of a character on one in a game/anime series it doesn't mean you should base a pretty much everything on that character.

Ic:

Vane listened to the Sister her explanation. It wasn't too surprising all in all since he had heard a bit about the Palace before and he had some basic knowledge on what they were meant to do here. The robot that lead him here gave out a lot of information as well. In general he wasn't too amazed at what was happening, he was just happy the headaches were gone for now.

Vane stood back a bit from the group and watched as some people started to socialise with eachother. He himself felt no need for it and decided to walk off a bit. Not too far away was a river at which he decided to lay down. He listened to the river flowing next to him as he watched upwards to the sky. It was a beautiful blue sky decorated by the occassional white cloud that passed by. He closed his eyes as he let out a short sigh. Lets hope it'll be entertaining

Jay sat on a bench, away from the crowd. All of the lines were confusing, he couldn't make anything out with all of them. He reached into his backpack, pulling out a sketchbook. He observed it, opening to the most recent page. He had been drawing his opinion of the world right now, how he thought everyone looked now, how the world really looked now, and what emotions he felt about living with his handicap.. So far, it looked like an apocalyptic wasteland.

The streets were cracked and torn apart, cars were upturned, the sky had a hazy fog that surrounded all of the dark buildings, which seldom had a window in tact. One building, in the center, had been torn in half. This was to represent his feelings. Half of him hated this, half of him loved it.

He flipped the page. He dug one of his drawing pencils out of his backback, and started to draw something. He wasn't aware of what he was drawing, but he didn't start any of his drawings with a thought of what to draw. He just did it.
Falzar
At this point, I'm just gonna make a few solitary IC's until Xtel accepts me. If he doesn't, then I at least haven't affected anyone with my Ics.

Ic: Bryan listened to the explination, with no enthusiasm. He had heard of people coming here at least 50 years, yet coming back looking only three years older. Personaly, Bryan didn't know how his parents afforded this, because they had spen nearly their life savings to stop the disease and pay for his school. Just like that, he felt warmer. He counted to three, and then felt a small prick on his wrist, telling him the medication had been auto-injected. Again, he wondered about his surroundings. He'd also heard tales about the money the gifted were given. A whole pot of gold and silverfor him to spend as he wished? That would take some time to get used to.

Another injection, practicly the only thing besides his clothes and his journal that belonged to him anymore, although he didn't really have much to begin with.

Dunno if I remembered to mention it or not. It doesn't cost anything to the family for their child to be taken to the Palace, and if the family needs money that they depended on their child for (parent is handicapped, can't work, etc) then the Palace pays them a small amount each month.

I might end up editing some extra stuff into my first IC, seeing as it was a total fail, but I dunno.

I'm just gonna assume Raven and Jay are on the same bench (might give them something to do.)

IC: Carlisle sat at a desk near an open window in one of the high towers of the Palace. Far below--thirteen floors below to be exact--, a group of new students stood in the courtyard. He stared down at them with boredom, wondering if any of them had to do with the prophecy Lucius had hinted about. "I can tell you a bit of the prophecy, but you must decide for yourself what it means. If you were meant to understand the prophecies, you would be a Prophet," Lucius' words drifted through his head. He tapped his fingers on the desk as he looked back down at the group of students. Several of them quickly caught his eye at his second glance. Maybe this year will be more fun.

OOC: I wrote up a Calcifer IC again, and it failed slanty.gif I'll have to work on finding a way to work it in. Remember: Each new Gifted has a Sister-in-Training assigned to them. Each person can make their own SiT (app for it please); they can be beautiful, old, somewhat young, kind, loving, angry, cold, apathetic.... You get the point.
Luna
IC: "Rena...Rena Jacobs," Rena answered, keeping her eyes down. "But I suppose it doesn't matter. We're all nobodies so far here."
Inside her mind, a new idea began to form. Hey...I wonder if there's some other reason they keep us here. Why do they want to prevent us from escaping? What is this wierd thing around our necks? Is it something...far more sinister?
Shaking the idea away, she dismissed it as paranoia, but it continued to linger. "No...no!"

Ooc: My talking to ideas in my head thing is a habit. Some might think it as wierd, but it's actually helpful sometimes. Still...talking to a voice in your head...never a good thing, as people say.

She sat on the top branch and looked around. Much better. Raven stood on her feet on the very top branch in clear view of everyone.

I guess I'll start off with the SiT apping.

-SiT-
Name: Reina Sylvadorn (Sil-va-dorn)
Age: 22
Gender: Female
Appearance: Long brown hair that comes down to her shoulders and glows in the sunlight. Lightly tanned skin, with a few freckles. Brown eyes.
Clothing: Whatever the Sister's wear
Calling: SiT
History: Uh...I Don't know.
Other: Obsessed with her looks. If someone doesn't like the way she looks, she'll change it to something different until they approve. If they tell her something along the lines of "I don't know" she'll change until they're sure if they like it or not.
