Welcome to Somerset Academy

User Image

It's a school specially made for the teens that have been rejected by society- The teens with a gift, a special power all their own. They have been sent here by their parents or guardians to learn how to control their powers; along with the usual classes such as Mathematics and English.

Some of the teens may posess a form-changing power; while others control over elements, and still others may bend more towards mind-based powers, such as telepathy. Some even have super-strength or speed.

Noone has been able to find out where these powers came from, or how only certain people have them. All we know is that they begin to show at an early age, and grow with time; or are else foricibly brought out by a traumatic event.

There are three floors to the school; the first and second floors are where all the classes are located; the third all of the dorms.

Floor One
Floor Two
Floor Three

Rules

I have a few simple rules. Make sure you follow them, 'cause I won't hesitate to kick you out of my roleplay.

One;; Respect your fellow roleplayers. Don't flame or cuss a river at them, it's not very polite and only illiterate idiots do it.
Two;; Post in size 9 or 10 font and use "quotes" for speech and type out your actions.
Three;; Be somewhat literate. I'll allow some misspellings, but don't make tons of grammar mistakes and use speak in slang or chatspeak.
Four;; PM me your profiles, then I'll post them in my own profile topic here, the second post.
Five;; For your characters Gift; DO NOT use the gift someone else has already chosen, and have weaknesses for it too. Don't be a mary-sue or gary-stu; it's annoying. I will PM you saying you have to change something if I must.

Feel free to PM me with any suggestions for this roleplay, or questions about the rules or stuff like that.

Profile Skeleton:

Username: This is your screenname, of course.
Character Full Name: Your characters full name; First, Middle, Last.
Age: Your character's age; fourteen to seventeen.
Grade: Your characters grade; from 9th to 12th.
Gift: Your character's power; be original!
Appearance: Anime pictures only; url format, like this
Personality: A little paragraph about your character. Again, no mary-sues or gary-stus.
Biography: Your character's bio; basically a little about their past and why they were sent here, ect.

A boy, tall and not stereotypically clumsy, walked slowly towards the great doors of the academy. If anyone had been looking from the door, they would have said this scene would be just like from a movie. A boy carrying a bag and a backpack walking towards the viewer with the sunset on his back. Creating a beautiful background and creating the boy's details dark and vauge as though he was a hero returning from his journal back to his girl.
But that was only movie scene. In real life, it's far from even close. The boy's long hair was extremely messy with eyes dull from sleepiness and even a bit of saliva was at the corner of his mouth. And he was far from being the hero of some movie.
"Aigo.. David it's okay. I'm alone so stop bothering me!" He snapped at what seemed to be nothing. But if someone was able to see through his very own eyes, they would see another teenager boy walking next to him wearing a black t-shirt with a blinding white cross on the back and also two slits on the back right on the shoulder blade's were once touching.
"Ah, but isn't a grand place? And also look at the sunset. So peaceful compared to the hectic lives." David said with great enthiasm but his voice was hardly a whisper. A smile was on his face as he asked the other boy, who simply shrugged away the comments and questions as though they weren't there.
"Just come on. And you can be excited. I have school." He muttered as he jumped up the steps to the doors and opened them without much as knocking. He was in a foul mood he was. That Tae.
