Heeeeere's another one! Name: Shojen Stromipher (also known as the Stormbearer). Age: 20 Gender: Male School: Aggressive Discipline: Shojen studies Elemental Control Magic, and in its practice has elected to train in both the Water and Lightning Styles. Personality: Shojen is an intellectual, and can never get enough knowledge to satisfy his hunger for it. He hates stupid questions and will not hesitate in knocking other supposed “know-it-alls” out of competition with him. The Mage rarely ever keeps his opinion to himself, and offers advice to those who seem to need it – regardless of whether they want to hear it or not. He is also a very determined man, and once a task has been set for him, he’ll see it through to one hundred per cent completion. According to him, there is nothing he won’t one day accomplish. He’s going to do it all. “But before I can accomplish everything,” he often says. “I must first accomplish this.” Generally speaking, ‘this’ refers to the destruction of the Empire and the restoration of the Valaecian Throne. And as with every other task Shojen has taken on, this mission will indeed be achieved. He has many friends throughout the Academy and the surrounding Mages’ Enclave. Many people he knows that he can trust. Chief among them all is his Master, Mirenai Barthaea. He is certain that he would do anything for his Master, and he is almost certain that the feeling is mutual, given their shared past. History: The Empire’s destruction is a long term goal he shares with each member of the Academy – or so he’s been made to believe. But what very few people know, are his reasons behind wanting to restore the throne. It’s as simple as this; he wants to restore it because it’s his by Royal right. That’s right; Shojen Stromipher is the bastard son of the former king’s rendezvous with a member of his court. An illegitimate son, but a son nonetheless. He is aware of his father Valaros’ horrible rule, and how he drove the Kingdom to ruin by being indecisive, and he plans to retake the throne and bring back the true Valaecia – the one his Grandfather created and maintained throughout the length of his reign, right up until his last breath. His past is known only by those who were there with him from the very beginning. When he was born, the King made a decision to send him and his mother away to a remote location in the hopes that they could live a happy life together away from the uprise of the Disenchanted and their Leader, Devan Maliss. And so one night under the Full Moon, they set out with a small group of Mages. Mirenai once told him that it was one of the few good things his father had ever accomplished. However, it was not to last – before they were able to make their escape, the Disenchanted ambushed them and attempted to sacrifice the child. His mother sacrificed her own life for him. Shojen would tell you that he was far too young to remember the incident, and whilst he appreciates the woman’s sacrifice, can’t remember what she looks like and doesn’t feel anything special towards her or who she was. Regardless, a young Mage then stole away him and brought him to The Enclave. The baby was raised by this Mage and soon enough became one himself. The bond he shares with her is like nothing he’s ever felt before, but he assumes that it must akin to the love between a Mother and her child. Something that no one knows is that whenever Shojen tries to remember his actual mother’s face, only Mirenai’s comes to view. All that they’ve been put through together, all the trials they faced are only the lead up for what is to come. All they can hope now is that when the time comes to fight, they’ll be ready and they’ll be together. Appearance: I know. It's Jace. Don't Care. Do Want.

Alright. Coming home to lots of stuff to sort out on EL. I love it! It feels good to be a GM again. Dream, I'll reply to your PM's posthaste and get to work on my final character before I start the IC. ![]() EDIT: Oh, and to Foxtrot: If you're still intent on joining, may I ask that you consider making a Defensive School Student..? It's up to you, but with my Supportive character going in, we'll have one Student for every Aggressive and Supportive discipline once Dream's characters are accepted. Master Mirenai will be teaching everyone, but I'd like for there to be a student who's studying in the Defensive discipline. Edited by Blue, March 30, 2012, 5:12 am.

Name: Jemima Mevoli Age: 15 Gender: Female School: Supportive Discipline: Telekinesis Personality: Accident-prone, clumsy and forever apologetic. Jemima’s convinced she’ll get it right one day. She’ll show them all she’s not just some klutz who can’t control her powers. She’ll learn to help people, and they’ll want her around. But until that day, she’ll remain the friendly, apologetic klutz who with her Telekinesis is undoubtedly – and completely by accident - more suited to the Aggressive school than the Supportive until further notice. Jem certainly means well, but her self confidence has always been low. And as any Master—heck, any Student – at the Academy would – and do – tell her, the power of Telekinesis comes from the principle of Mind over Matter. More often than not, if a Student believes that they can lift an object, they can lift it. Weight obviously factors in, but nine times out of ten it’s a simple process so long as the Student is willing and confident. Jemima on the other hand, thanks to a game that went wrong after she became a Telekinesis user, doesn’t believe she can help, and therefore can’t. Whenever she attempts to improve her skills in training, accidents always occur. It is through her new Master, Mirenai, that she hopes to further herself and regain her lost confidence. History: The clichéd story of the tragic childhood is the only way one can describe Jemima’s upbringing. Her mother died during childbirth, and her father somehow perceived this as his newborn daughter’s fault. He never struck her during all her years with him, but with his pointed words and constant displays of disappointment and disapproval of his daughter, he managed to turn a lovely little girl into a young adult who felt she’d never accomplish anything because the first thing she’d ever accomplished was – in his words – “her mother’s murder”. At the age of 13, she went to enter in the Mage Trials, to prove that she could make something of herself. There she met Jerry, another boy her age who wanted nothing more than to be the strongest Mage ever. Throughout the Preliminary Years, they shared food, training horror stories and their dreams for the future. Jerry was going to become the strongest Mage the world had ever seen and he was going to take down the Empire one day. In his eyes, Jemima saw his future burning bright and strong. It was then that she decided that she too would have a future worth trying for. And so when the two years of Preliminary were over and the basic training complete, both Jemima and Jerry were accepted into the Academy under the Supportive and Aggressive schools respectively. Whilst Jemima choose to become a Telekinesis user, Jerry went on to choose Elemental Control as his discipline and took up Earth Manipulation. One night, they were both out training in the courtyard. Jerry decided to play a game with Jemima. Lifting a large practice stone from the ground, he told her the objective was to see who could hold it for the longest amount of time. It was a fairly large rock, but Jemima was up for it. Jerry went first, and held the stone steady for at least a minute. When Jemima “picked up” the rock, she could feel its weight almost bearing down on her. It was her first time actually lifting something that was bigger than she was – not to mention a whole lot denser. When she went to drop the rock however, she couldn’t figure out how to turn it back on its flat underside. All the while that she’d had it suspending, it had been spinning and was now on its side. She was concentrating so hard that when Jerry called out to her to set it down gently, she dropped it. The boulder rolled toward the boy as it landed with a crash. Jerry stepped backwards and stumbled over a fallen branch. Jemima tried to pull the boulder back, but a lingering doubt made her powers useless. The stone roll on top of Jerry’s legs and crushed them before he was able to throw his arms forward and stop its motion. He screamed. Jemima screamed too. Unfortunately, despite the work of the Academy’s Master Alchemists, Jerry lost the use of his legs. From the night of the accident onward, he hasn’t spoken to Jemima, and turns his parents turn her away when she tries to visit him at his home. He’d never get to be the strongest Mage the world had ever known, and she knew he hated her for it. From that moment forward, Jemima continued on alone in her training and waited for the day that an accident would take her out too. It was only fair in her eyes, after all. She was assigned a Master a few days after the accident. Mirenai of the Defensive discipline. The girl only hoped that her new teacher had the sense to keep up as many shields as she could for as long as they would train together. Appearance: |

Which should be rather soon so long as Dream finishes her characters. I've got a short shift at work today, but I really am hoping to start the IC when I return. I may start without Dream and then have her finish her characters and join in later.
