School for Gifted Individuals Dicussion #1

[Darth SS]

Okay, here's another one of the teachers that Ken takes classes from.

Name: Heather Bloom
Race: Halfling
Gift: What healing does for the body, she does for the mind
Personality: Bright, upbeat, kind to everyone
Bio: Heather always wanted to be a nurse, but she found that she got too attached to patients and cared too much about their spirit instead of their bodies. However, this is also how she discovered her unique gift. She doesn't so much go adventuring as do a global-ish round and help who she deems needing the help. Now, she teaches a class that goes in depth of what emotions signify, and how to change perspective on things to change your emotions.


Hey, Lycan, d'ya mind if I use Don for one of Ken's classes?

[Lycanthrope]

go ahead.

(don is actually an honorary title given him by the government of [insert equivalent of italy here] for excellence in swordplay)

Don Raphiel is not actually much of an adventurer persay, but he is often called away for one reason or another, whether it be because someone has issued him a challenge from far away or because the [equivolent of Italian] government has called him to attend a social function.

[Zweihander]

Right, I should probably come up with things for the profs I made up to do...

Reva teaches full-time at the SGI, having retired from the whole adventuring thing a while back. Being a white mage of some reknown, it's possible she can be called away for emergencies, usually to heal people.

Oneses isn't exactly an adventurer, but as I said she does get homesick a lot, so she would spend roughly equal amounts of time at her home and the SGI. She might also get called out for assignments, especially those that have need of her psychic talents.

Do whatever you want with Old Stone We guess. He seems the type of spirit that would go and save a town in between seasons.

Also, should Callous go to Raphiel or Bearn? We can't really think of which teacher to go to when practicing with a jitte and katana.

[Lycanthrope]

Raphiel does not know how to fight with a katana although his blade was forged in the same method as a katana (the many many folds) and he knows how to fight against someone wielding a katana. I'm afraid I'm unfamiliar as to what a Jitte is.
Raphiel would know how t deal with any normal fencing form (foil, epee, and saber) as well as with true rapier blades (slightly heavier than the above and with slightly different styles)

[Darth SS]

Translation:

If it's not formal fighting, or halberds, go to Bearn. Your one-stop ass-kicking superstore.

Ecurt, naked Wednesday was Nora, not Micheal. Nora rooms with AB and Gineko's characters (And Inbred's).

Also, there is no lunch period. There is no anything period. Food is cooked by the school at normal eating times (6-9 mornings, noon, 5-8 evenings). Then some student cooking inbetween or at the same time. While most people eat their lunch at noon to get the food fresh, you could go at 3 and get leftovers.

(Repost)

SS's post made me realize we need a new rule.

9) Do not skip ahead in the RP. It will only lead to confusion. If nothing is going on with any PCs (Or something trivial that the majority does not want to wait for), I will advance the RP

[Inbred Chocobo]

I think we are going to need an arena like area for the tests Mr calvin is giving.

Edit: To save you the trouble, I decided to include this description of what I think the arena needs to be

School Wing: Arena
The Arena is used by most of the weapon masters for their training and tests. It is a stunning model of a Roman Colosseum, except the rooms below are used for weapon storage. The only way to gain access to the weapon storage, along with the Arena itself, is to request it. And requests must go through a teacher and a staff member.

[Krylo]

I like that description of the arena. It allows for spectators too. Spectating is fun.

Also: Shouldn't the GBA that AB keeps refrencing not exist? Computers and TVs are both for education only, so I doubt that there would be gameboys...

[IHateMakingNames]

The arena would also be used for sporting events that can take place in an arena.

Also (Arena reminded me), for any sport that is created, the school plays against it self. No one is going to even try to beat these students. So, there are usually about 8 teams per sport (We're going to assume there are enough students to do that).

krylo, at first I was going to remove it, but then I decided that it exist, but as a rare, expensive item that only rich people (Jess) can afford. No other types of games exist though (Yet).
