 6/12 Slots Open Here at CruelStorm High , things run pretty smoothly. Teachers, students and administrators walk the halls day in and day out, and one wouldn't think anything was wrong with this High School setup if they didn't look beyond the visible features. Classes in session, boys joke and horse play in the halls, girls gossip and laugh in groups, teachers huddle in the break room for a few moments peace, school lunch always has the 'mystery meat' and freshmen DO fit in the lockers, but what you would miss would be the fear in students eyes, the reaction on teachers faces and the cringing at the sound of stiletto heals on tile. A group of girls known as the 'Populars', control most of the every day occurrences, everything from who sits where in class, the gossip floating about, and the basic social structure of school. These girls are a tight group, run with military precision and rule with an iron fist, to question them is to fall to your knees begging for mercy...something they rarely give. This is a group of girls who deal with rebellion as if they were to squish a bug beneath their heals, deal out tasks like Mistress's and have the faculty wrapped around their fingers. Things run smoothly here at CruelStorm High , because they say they do.
Like any normal school, class begins promptly at 8am, class varying from English, Math and Science, to Auto-Shop, Psychology and Team Sports, all going about their curriculum's in preparation for the next test or exam. Your basic student structure of:
Freshman - First year, lower class
Sophomores - Second year, lower class
Juniors - Third year, upper class
Seniors - Fourth year, upper class.
Still stands and is well enforced by the student body as well as the 'Populars', thought their group does include all four classes, they consider themselves above even the Seniors, and most would agree. If you are accepted into their group, class rank, social status, grades or anything else no longer matter, your set for the rest of your stay at CruelStorm High.This is the basic mandatory class schedule for each grade. Most students carry 8 classes a year, but these are guidelines that are not always kept to, especially for those students who "fall behind" and those who choose to go the vocational route.
:Note: Class schedules are here for Role playing detail purposes only, don't think we expect you to adhere to the schedule all the time.
Floors Layout:
Floor 1: Lunch Room, Main Office, Nurses Office, English and History Classrooms
Floor 2: Gym and Weight Room
Floor 3: Science and Math Classes, Library
Floor 4: Electives; Arts, Languages, Psychology, Architecture, etc...
Tech House: Auto-Body, Welding, Shop Class etc.
Class Rooms:
Throughout the school halls are lined with classes, most looking much like the picture above, science classrooms have slate tables and sinks at the lab piers but for the most part this is the basic layout for classes. Most rooms seat about 25 desks and chairs, sometimes more or less depending on the equipment needed for the class, but that’s the average. Teacher pets and nerds still sit in the front. Slackers and 'cool' kids toward the middle as usual. If you sit in the back...we all know what you’re doing.
Hallways:
The school is laid out in a basic square format. The halls make a square around each of the four floors with classrooms in the center of the square and the outer section facing the courtyards and fields. The walls are lined with lockers, and each student has one assigned to them at the beginning of each year. And yes...Freshman do fit in them sometimes. The hallways are wide, but during class changes they can get very crowded so many by their sophomore year have developed ways so cut through the halls, or found routes through the library to get to where they need to be.Lunch:
Of course the ever important social time of the day, lunch is usually broken up into two shifts, each a half hour long, and you can either sit at the lunch tables provided or go out into the courtyard to eat. There are two shifts and depending on what floor your third class of the day is on, determines which shift you are in. [1st & 2nd: Shift 1. 3rd & 4th: Shift 2] The basic food line wraps around the lunch room walls full of kids waiting for mashed potato's, fries and the mystery meat of the day, as administrators roam through the tables in attempt to watch the students while they eat, make sure trash is thrown away and cell phones stay out of site...though this rarely works. Of course there is always Lunch Room politics, who sits with who, where your table is and wars breaking out over one group taking another's table. The preps sit with preps on the right close to the windows, "Better lighting" according to them. The nerds sit in the far back closest to the doors to the kitchen. That area always seems to smell funky and no one else will sit there, but they are happy to sit and eat their packed lunches in peace, usually knowing the lunch ladies by first name. So on and so forth. Though the 'Populars' and Jocks eat outside in the courtyard, others do sometimes as well but no one dare try and venture to join the girls on their lunch hour unless invited. It is just common sense not to mess with the big dogs when their feeding.
Dorms: The Dorms are in a separate building off the courtyard. Six levels house the entire school student body, the girls on floors 1-3 and the boys on levels 4-6. each floor holds about 100 rooms, made for two, with common showers on each level near the center of the floor. Two sets of stairs climbing both sides of the building so that students can get to the upper floors. But getting into the building you must have your student I.D for security purposes. Each room has the basic two beds, two desks, a couch, closet, dresser and half bath. Decoration and personalization is welcomed and encouraged by the administration and you will find some very well decorated rooms. Especially from Seniors who have had their rooms for years. Boys are allowed on the girls floors and girls on the boys but all must be in their rooms for bed check by 11pm. Because of this its not uncommon to see huge groups of people surrounding certain rooms, the "Populars" like to throw small parties in the dorms from now and then. Though students live here at school, they have the option of going home on the weekends if they live close enough. This leads to several off grounds parties that can get pretty wild.
Courtyard:
The Courtyard is in the area that surrounds the school except for the rear which holds the pool and athletic fields. It’s paved with white cement squares, benches, trees, and bushes all kept up by the 'Floral Club". This area is open to students between classes, at lunch and before and after school, and is one of the more frequented hang outs for students. Most groups you'll find out and about, in a section of benches chatting, throwing a Frisbee or even having study session before a big test. Teachers come out every once and a while when they want a smoke or have the urge for sunlight, sometimes eating their lunches outside as well. It isn't uncommon to see security officers patrolling the courtyard from time to time, but usually nothing happens with them, the 'Populars' keep everything pretty much under control. During the summer and spring when the weather is nice, garage bands will set up stages in the center of the Courtyard and hold concerts for the other students and anyone else who wants to show up. There is still a hope that Veronica will play in the courtyard before she graduates, or have the other girls sing with her, but most doubt it ever happening. There is a large willow tree near the front right corner of the courtyard, it willows create a private room where few can see in unless they are close and little sound escapes when voices are kept at normal levels. If you go over there without permission it is highly likely you'll get whipped with one of those willows. That is the "Populars' spot, when they skip class together, during lunch or before school that is where you will find them, chatting, laughing and scheming. You've been warned.
Back Fields: The fields behind the school are there for gym and the sports teams. The Stadium, shared by most of the teams at CruelStorm High, is off the right behind the school, the inner field surrounded by a quarter mile outer track, where the track team practices. The stadium in painted in blacks, reds and silvers, the school colors, and a huge Tornado painted in the grass at the 50 yard line on the field. The score board always reads the score from the past games, and since Bradly joined the team, it always favors the Tornado's. The soccer fields are to the left of the Stadium, where the soccer team, lacrosse team and field hockey team all practice after school. The finishing touch to the back fields is the cross country course that circles around the fields and goes back through the forests behind the school for a 4 mile course.
Gym:
The gym is on the second floor, and takes up the majority of the space there. There are no other classes taught on the second floor expect health, which is taught by the gym teachers anyway. That floor constantly smells of sweat and blood, from the workout room, wrestling room and two main gyms. A quarter mile track is suspended around the top of the main gym on a platform with a set of stairs to reach them. This track is used for fitness tests or when a student fails to dress for gym, or fails to behave in class, the punishment usually running laps for the rest of class. The smaller gym or auxiliary gym is used mainly for sports practices like Volleyball and Basketball as well as Cheer leading and equipment is always set up for something. The workout room is usually inhabited by the football players, wrestlers and volleyball players for the school, lifting weights or using the cardio machines, and always has some kind of music blaring from a small boom box on the teacher’s desk in the corner.
Tech House & Pool:
Off to the left side, back from the school a few hundred yards is the outdoor pool for the swim team. During the summer it is opened up and used as a community pool and the swim team serves as life guards. In CruelStorm fashion there is a tornado painted at the bottom of the pool with a snorkel. Behind the pool is the Tech House. The Tech House holds all the shop classes like Auto-body garage, Welding, ROTC, Wood Crafting, Plumbing and Electrical classes. A path leading from the Courtyard to the Tech house and pool is worn with students always going back and forth. The Tech House is populated by mostly guys but the occasion girl takes some classes inside. Like Sophia who is one of the best auto-body mechanics CruelStorm has. [-Post Contents-]

3: You will respect your follow roleplayers. You will not take the images of their profiles or copy any material from this Thread without permission of the creator of that material. Its considered very rude to have say an Image you have made a very good profile out of reused in a poor way. Thats insulting to the creator of the original profile. We do recognize that unknown events of copy might happen but in these cases we do ask that you either change or update your profile in such a way that it no longer will be considered offensive to the original creator or poster. What is insulting will be decided by members of the Crew.
4: We Require Literacy in this Roleplay. However we do not define Literacy by how long posts you make. But on the quality of the posts. This means a lot of the places one liners are just fine. But most of the time the need for detail exists and we expect that everyone tries to make the roleplays as interesting as possible for everyone. We cant read your mind, so for us to get a full view of what your trying to write the need for details exist, and with details comes quality. In terms of spelling and grammar we ain't to strict about it as long as its not difficult to understand what your typing. But we do not accept Chat speak in any form what so ever unless its OCC but this should not be done in this Roleplay in any other form then (Is anyone here?), (I need to go for a while) and short responses to such posts. Other then posts of this nature all OCC is banned.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
1: All Players must read the opening story line to understand where we start off. (Besides its beautifully written by Ana Leathernia), and are expected to regularly check for updates in the story line underneath it. They will be dated for user friendliness. These updates will announce up coming events that will effect the ongoings of the RP so CHECK THEM.
2: Because this is a casted RP with only certain people posting, each Role player is expected to let the others know if they will be unable to post for any length of time, exceeding 2 days. It is rude to hold up the others without an explanation because the RP hinges on everyone continually posting.
3: Not all Profiles or NPC's are present at this time. Some will be continually added as the story goes on. Be aware that new characters and NPC's will appear on the lists, another reason to ALWAYS CHECK THE "WHATS HAPPENING NEXT" Section when you come in to post.

This story starts on a Monday the first day of the new Semester at CruelStorm High. Sophomores, Junior, and Senior students come and settle in for a new year and meet up with their friends once more after summer break and share their experiences of summer. The freshmen don't arrive at Cruelstorm for another 2 days, on Wednesday, giving time to all the clubs and students to prepare for their arrival. This is one of the traditions at CruelStorm High, making freshmen feel welcome is a very big thing for the school in order to give a very strong first impression to its new students. This tradition however is not something that has existed on Cruelstorm High for very long. It all started a few years ago when the Football team the Tornado's started finishing high up in the tournaments, and became even more important after they won the State championship the last two years running. Following success more skilled students came to CruelStorm mainly athletes but also with the school focusing on other skills like Drama and Art which again lead to Cruelstorm High becoming a more prestigious high school. Most schools would not start serious recruitment before Collage or University but Cruelstorm began targeting talent from all over the country in order to make Cruelstorm the number one school in the state. This kind of behavior would usually not be seen before Collage level but Cruelstorm's ambition being so high and being a private school separate them from the average school. And welcoming the next set of elite students was what the current students where preparing for by setting up stands to help advertise their club's to get the best students to join them, and overlooking the process was the Student Council. "The students are progressing well, everyone is following your instruction's. I'm sure this year will be your year Mr. President," the one was speaking was the Council Secretary, Michelle Corson. Anyone in the council could tell she had a major crush on the president, well save for the President himself. The President's name was Brandon Smithison. A national elite with grades that could be said very little less then Perfect, the reason for this was the time he wasted cleaning up the mess made from a certain group. It wasn't long before a commotion started to build up on the outside, "They're here" could be heard from the outside. Brandon Smithison walked slowly towards the window and looked outside. The president turned his gaze towards the school entrance, and there four Girls where walking up the small road. Natalia Striker, Veronica Blossom, Cathrine Blackheart and Christy Blackheart. The four girls was the most famous group at school, simply known as "The Popular's". The Popular's was the one thing that was in the way of Brandon's perfect record that would put him in the School records. They where the most powerful group in the school, to make it worse in his eyes would be that the group was a all girls group that held more influence then himself. The President tightened his fist "If it wasn't for them it would be" he said. He did not like them at all. Already for three years Natalia Striker had made his time at this school a menace, with her skills she had influenced and manipulated members of the council and made them vote in her favor or against him. He had tried to go through the teachers a few times, but then the principle just stopped it. The principle may be supportive of him but he would not take any action against Natalia Striker and her group. He was afraid they would transfer out and the school would lose four of its most well known students. This year he had to find a way to return the power where it belonged, with him. But no matter how much he hated their group, he did recognize their leader. Although he hated her in some ways, she was still the most Powerful figure in the school. This fact alone made him see her as the only one that would be suitable for him, but his reputation would not take a girl that far outside of the regulations he wanted to tame that wild striker and he intended to see the end of the group knows as The Popular's before the year was done. At the entrance the four girls where being watched in awe by everyone who was standing outside, students where also watching from the window's. Natalia Striker, the Leader of the group and the schools top student. She was admired by the teachers to an extreme level which meant she could bend the rules of the school and manipulate it as she wanted. She had grown in the school and by the second year already gained so much influence that by the third year she had more power then the Council itself, the reason for it was simple. She controlled the council from the shadows, while the President of the student council kept trying to intervene, Natalia had still won all the battles she needed to win and as a token to that her group was the only one allowed to not wear the school uniforms. Veronica Blossom the school Idol her skills at the Piano and her voice had the school in a trance. And to make it even more her beauty is among the very finest in the school making her have her own fan club and given free reign if she ever wishes to practice instead of attending class. Rumors has it she will go Professional after she graduates. The only thing that seams to draw down her reputation is her temper, its said anyone who has ever angered her as truly felt her wrath but there is no one that doubts her spot. Then come the Blackheart twins, everyone can tell their like day and night. While both having a beautiful charm about them, one has one like the sun and the other like the moon. Christy the more cheerful of the twins would keep playing games and always lighten the mood and make others laugh being the center of the group she acts as its binding and often act as the medium should there ever be disagreements. She loves fashion and is often found in the Drama club creating new outfits either for herself or for a upcoming show, her latest work was also shown at a fashion show in the City which made all the female students scream wanting Christy to make something just for them. On the other hand, Catherine is the quiet one that few go near her. When she is not seen with the group she is often found in the Art room drawing for hours to no end and her Art is good and her work has but put up several times, but her calm attitude and extreme concentration when she is working makes her very hard to approach. Her work is often Dark or Sad and the teachers often say she should try to draw something more cheerful or bright but Catherine holds to her darker side. If anyone interrupts her or sabotage her work, she will quickly take revenge making her more of the aggressive one and the one that helps keep others at a distance from the group and giving the group the peace they all enjoy to talk and have fun as they please.
"Hey Natalia" it was Christy who had started speaking "This year, Rebeka and Allie is coming here to join us aren't they?" Rebeka was Natalia's little sister and Allie was hers and Catherine's. "Don't ask a question you already know the answer to Christy" It was Veronica that answered the question. She often disliked unneeded things being said and would if she could usually answer in Natalia's steed. "I know that Veronica, you do not need to put it so bluntly. Allie would never team up with us but I remember Natalia telling us some of her plans last week so I just wanted to make sure." Veronica heard well what Christy was saying and as she was about to respond, Natalia beat her to it. "Its okay Veronica, Rebeka is indeed coming this year and you and me are Seniors this year. We need to leave something behind and I intend to give the school to Rebeka after I graduate. So we need to start training her right away if she is going to be able to handle that task after we are gone. I've already made sure she gets a room all to herself and that she will be paired with some of the easier teachers. She should be elected into the Council easily with her talents and using that make her future clear." Catherine looked a bit unsure if she should respond but she then decided it was nothing wrong with the response "That is if she listens. She has had a habit of not wanting to listen to you recently Natalia" Catherine didn't want anyone to take over the group in truth. She wanted to be free next year and if someone would take over the group she would either need to break from it or try to take over it herself both which would cause her problems with Natalia later and if possible she would rather prevent anyone from taking over. Natalia however just smiled "If she doesn't want to listen I will just have to make her. She will thank me for it in the future, she is to inexperienced to truly know what she want." And with this they continued to walk towards the main building together talking about different matters. Inside the group, a blitz went off and as the camera was lowered, the girl holding it smiled wide. It was rare to get a scoop on those four. Overhearing that conversation about Natalia's little sister was indeed a scoop. She took her notes and double-checked them before making her way to the schools newspaper club. The scoop for the first edition of the year was already clear. Cynthia entered the newspaper clubroom and the Club President was standing there just hanging up the phone as she entered "A scoop?" She asked and the president simply smiled "No, a request from the Student Council, he wants us to help bring down the Popular's this year again. Sure they keep giving us good news all year round but with Natalia and Veronica graduating this year we certainly do not need to hold back anymore and we are free to make any scandalous article we want salon as our sources are pure. If they're not they will only bite back and that can hurt. But as long as we prevent their retaliation we can write anything we want, its all about the news after all." Cynthia started to laugh "Then I might have the first scoop of the year already" She smiled wide before continuing to restate what she had heard at the school entrance at the four had walked up. The Club President started to grin "A little sister, that's quite ironic. So Natalia plans to set her little sister up does she, we can use this, prepare a good article to be released for the new freshmen. Lets see if we cant create a good source for future articles with it and we might just do as the Council asked us to do at the same time" The Club President smiled, he was a good friend of Brandon's but usually would not let that get in the way of a good story. He was already well known in the Area for his articles and many said he had a bright future in front of him if he continued as he had so far. The only problem he had was his attachment to his friend. While good friendship no one really sees as a flaw for him it is. The reason for this is that he often ends up helping his friend with his schemes to bring down The Popular's. Personally he don't care about them at all, but due to them being as their name also states popular they are a good source for articles for the School Newspaper. And just like the last year had ended he soon got visited by his friend regarding the Popular's. "Peter!, Those girls walk here to school without their uniforms again. Why aren't the teacher's responding to this violation?!?!" Brandon often came to Peter to vent his anger he didn't show to others. "Brandon... calm down. Getting all stressed about something you know all to well isn't going to help you. However, to answer your question, it's because each and everyone in that group is special at this school. Veronica is so skilled she could be considered a pop idol, and most likely will start a career within music once she graduates. Natalia Striker holds the top grades of the current senior's making you second. Her ability to use her intelligence has lead to many projects that has benefited this school greatly. Then the twins, the Art and Drama club are all about praise for those two and their strong attachment towards the other two in the group makes it very hard for the teachers to go against them." Brandon's reaction was also something Peter had expected: "But their violating school regulation this must end!" Peter sighed it was about time this ended so he decided to share what he had learned with Brandon "Look Brandon, I might have something that will help you out so calm down. Apparently, the little sister of both Natalia Striker and the Twins will be joining us here at Cruelstorm this year. Their freshmen, and you might be able to use them to your advantage to get revenge on the other girls So depending how you use this information it might turn into your advantage over the group if you play your card's right. Now hurry up and get out, I have articles that needs to meet their deadlines."
Two days passed and it was finaly Wednesday and freshmen started to arrive and gather in the school yard infront of the main entrance. Those that had come from the same Middle School gathered together and would chat and laughed together waiting for the Ceremony that would welcome them as new students of Cruelstorm High would start. The students changed their attention to the main entrance of the school when two people came outside. One was the Principle of Cruelstorm High and the other the Student Council President, shortly after stoping outside they asked everyone to gather and pay attention. "Welcome new students of Cruelstorm, I'm Roger Smith your Principle and this is Brandon ........ the president of your student council this year. We would like to once again welcome you to our school. We are a relatively new school but we are of the very best and we will be known as the best within few years. We got the State's best Football team the.. TORNADO'S and we got some of the best minds from all over the state aswell. Several of you have been invited here just for this reason, your part of this country's future and we wish to help shape you to meet that futurel. Here at Cruelstorm we hope that you all will take pride of this school together with us and help to make it even greater then it is today. I will not drag out this speech on to long, since you will get to experience all for yourself shortly. Brandon here will now take over now and lead you inside the school in a group of 40 at a time. Inside the different club's of this school has prepared stands to help you choose your classes this coming year. Take a good look and choose well, welcome to Cruelstorm High your home for the next 4 years." the students where then separated into groups of 40 and taken inside one at a time. ---------------------------------Inside each of the different club's in the school had prepared a stand. The Football team pretty much dragged every boy over and did a quick physical and those that might have the talent was encouraged to come to the tryouts later that day, one of the school's worst people was there too. Bradly McHoover the Captain and all star player of the Tornado's, but a real jerk and playboy. He approached all the pretty girls and did his yearly flatter of first year's to pull several of them over to the Cheer leading stand. The Football team was the main focus of the school, and many of the students did in fact come to it for that very reason. But it was far from the only club to stand out. The Drama Club had a stand with a beautiful dress and parts of a stage set in their stand and handed out fliers to a Drama that very evening and asked those that was interested in learning to act or take part within Theater to show up. The Art Club had several grand paintings listed the main one was signed "Catherine Blackheart" it caused a small commotion where art fans right away became in awe of this elder student they did not yet know. The Cosmetology club offered to help some of the girls get a makeover and did everything from cutting their hair to applying makeup. They also had a contest where one lucky winner would be awarded a complete makeover, that the contest was popular was no doubt as there where hardly a single girl that did not sign up for it. The Newspaper club was also at it, handing out this year's first edition to many of the students and students read it with eager to learn more about this school or events soon to come. Rebeka had little interest in this demonstration, she had already decided long ago what she wanted in this school. She wanted to join the student council therefore other clubs or electives where out of the question. Some of her friends looked strange at her after they had been in the newspaper club's stand. She would have asked if not for that they where all being called to the message board by a Senior student. "This is the Message Board, all important messages will be posted here so check it everyday. Also today your classes has been assigned. Your electives and club activities are all on a separate time frame. Your first classes start in 40 minutes. Find your classes and the rooms where they are. That is your first trial here at Cruelstorm. No senior student will show you the way, you must find it for yourselves within the time frame, Good luck and may your time here at our school be a good one." And with that the ones in the same classes gathered, and then the search for the classrooms where to start. Class C, the class Rebeka was part of however had it easy. The reason was that Rebeka already knew where the classroom was so Class C had a full attendance and many was glad. They asked her name and she replied it was Rebeka, not thinking not mentioning her last name would cause a storm very soon.
The first day had ended well for Rebeka she felt she had made some new friends and that everything would turn out well. She headed off to dorm to see where she would be living for the next 4 years, and even more who she would share it with. She had wanted a roommate for a long time, someone who she could talk to late at night and share her daily story with. However everything came to a quick end when she came to find her room was not only a room designed for 3. But that she had it all to herself, she knew just getting a dorm room at Cruelstorm was hard because students from all over wanted to attend the school. She had even heard in class that some had been turned away because there was no space in the dorms. And it was this situation that would start putting Rebeka on the outside of thee rest of her class. The next day people where already looking at her with angry eyes. When she tried to talk to some of her classmates she was soon pushed away. What was this ? No one would tell her and it made her feel uncomfortable. She sat down in class and Ms Devonshire came in "Good Morning class, I'm sure you've had some chances to get to know each other by now so its time to choose who will be this class's representative in the Student Council. Any Nominee's or volunteer's ?" Some in the class volunteered early and then Rebeka also rose her hand. And as soon as she did the others took their hands down. And whispers where going loud enough so she could hear "Thats her right, yeah it seams Amy didn't get in because the room she was assigned to got taken over by that girls sister. And now she plans to take control of this class it seams, well its nothing we can do since if we go against her she will probably just get her sister to step in for her. And this also explains why she would know where the class room's where yesterday she was told in advance.." Rebeka wanted to scream.. what.. what was this.. Natalia had done what ? Rebeka was deep in thought. During lunch Rebeka stormed out of class and went outside and to Courtyard where Natalia and the others used to spend their free time. She id not spare her voice when she got close "NATALIA" she screamed out and walked up close "What have you done ? I thought that i had a solo room because there where less students this year but i find out its because you arranged it and by doing so the school refused 2 students? Why did you do it ? My class already hates me for it... and the newspaper is all about this" She threw a copy of the newspaper in front of the group. Little Striker Enters Cruelstorm High: The little sister our famous Natalia Striker who leads the small group called the Popular's which holds the top female icons of our school. Natalia Striker, the girl with the most influence in the entire school, Veronica Blossom the school Idol, Catherine and Christy Blackheart the two leading figures in our Art and Drama club. Truly a club filled with Queen's, will Little Striker be the school's next Princess and join the ranks of the Popular group that none has been able to enter for the whole of last year? A lot seams to indicate this, an anonymous source has confirmed that Natalia Striker arranged her little sister to get a room all for herself, truly the sign that Little Striker will walk in her sister's footsteps. Storm Times will keep you updated on the situation and give you regular reports on the situation so read us again for more news. - Newspaper Club. "What the hell is this ? is this true Natalia ?" Natalia just smiled "I didn't think the Newspaper club would help me like this. Yes, I had it arranged so that you would get a large single room. Since you will rule this school once I'm done its only fitting that they see the differences now from your freshman year." Rebeka and Natalia ended in a loud argument there for the rest of lunch, and it would have continued if not the bell rang signaling the end of Lunch break. At that time Rebeka turned towards Natalia and screamed "I NEVER ASKED FOR ANY OF THIS, I DON'T WANT IT!!" then ran off. Natalia just smiled as the other's in the group looked at her and then said "She will come around, she has never been able to go against me."

Name:Nurse Joann
Age: 30
Gender:Female
Summery:Joann is very laid back as the school nurse, not much phases her as it comes through her office door, especially since the 'Populars' have taken power. Since then some weird cases of tripping or falling, where the student seems to be hiding something more about the incident, or chooses to knock themselves out with pain before telling on who did it to them, she has always kept an eye out for cases that string together, keeping track of who is coming in more frequently. Though none of the injuries have been serious is still makes Nurse Joann weary of the girls and their methods, even though she has no real proof its them, she still has she theories and believes that she is right. Even so Joann is not the type to go to the Principle with the information, she is a strong believer in letting kids work it out themselves as long as no one is seriously hurt. Having worked in Emergency medicine for years stress and pressure do not move Joann the way normal people would be. Sometimes if she has a particularly slow day she will speak with student, sharing stories from her few years of Emergency Room experience, usually the stories make the student sicker then they were when they came in. She keeps just about the same expression on her face all the time, a neutral, and bored.~~~ The Spiders: Miria's Underlings
Names: Samantha Trilo (Left)
Amanda Davidson (Middle)
Kelli Lister (Right)
Age:Freshman- All 15
Members: Samantha~When Miria transfered into CruelStorm High, she was given a locker near her first block class. By the 3rd week in school Miria had bumped into Samantha several times, as she had the locker next to hers. Some small talking had been done, they spoke of classes and such, Sam being on the Newspaper as a reporter and in Miria's English class, but Sam was one of the few that did not look to Miria in fear or adoration after hearing of her exploits with the populars. She had regarded Miria will little more the caution and a friendly smile. Though something about the way she was attracted to talking to Miria, and that while passing notes in class Sam would ask about her trickery with the "Populars", made Miria think there was a more mischievous streak in Sam then she had thought. Though when it came time for Miria to create her own group to counter Damion's "Skulls" She found Sam right away. Her strength against Miria's daily advances and her underlying need for mischief made her a prime choice for the group. The fact that she was on the Newspaper staff as a reporter, would make for a very valuable connection later on.
Amanda~Damion, Miria's older brother, wasted no time making friends with the skaters and punks at CruelStorm. Miria was sure that all of them would be boys, but when she walked over to Damion one day in the hall, Amanda was introduced to her as one of the skaters. It was a surprise for Miria and it intrigued her. Amanda instantly liked Miria, and saw it as a way to get closer to Damion at first. It turned out that they had rooms near each other and hung out in each others rooms from time to time afterward. Amanda was one of the boys around the Skaters, but had a more girly side that came out around Miria, more insecure and self-conscious, perfect for Miria to play her games with. Slowly Miria turned Amanda from her brother and the boys he had recruited, bringing her into the Spiders Web as her 3rd member. Her friendships and closeness with Damion's "Skulls" was perfect to keep tabs on them during this fight with the "Populars" and would come in quite helpful later.
Kelli~Gym class was Miria's most hated classes, she disliked running or playing sports much, it just wasn't her thing. So when she found out part of their grade was if their team won each day or put in an effort, Miria found the strongest athlete in her class. Kelli was on the Varsity Soccer team already as a freshman, one of the classes best runners and skilled at several other sports. She was Miria's target, she had to be on Miria's team, it would almost assure their team victory and a good grade. Approaching Kelli was easy enough for Miria and to her surprise she found Kelli a weak mind, smart, but easily manipulated. With a grin Miria set to work, training her new slave well. Kelli came to adore Miria and would anything she wanted. Then Miria through the girl through a loop, telling her she was now to be a member in her group The Spiders. With Kelli on the Soccer team, she had access to all the main jock players, contacts and information that were crucial to their operation and Miria wasn't about to pass that up.
Summary:When The "Populars" started feuding with Damion's "Skull" Miria was torn between her brother and Natalia. That all changed when Natalia whispered words of reward and power in her ear. Determined to help the Populars win this fight she searched for something she could do to turn the tides in their favor. After realizing Natalia was keeping her off the front line so that Damion wouldn't use the weakness, she was even more driven to show Natalia she could be what she was training her to be, a Queen. Gathering four girls, each with a talent, position or skill that would help their cause, she created her own group. "The Spiders", made up of Miria, Rebeka Striker, Samantha Trilo, Amanda Davidson and Kelli Lister was formed behind the "Populars" backs. Each member had their role. Rebeka was made Miria's second in command. Her leadership skills were wonderful, though no drive for control, as well as the fact that she was an amazing strategist made her perfect for the job. It would be mainly Rebeka giving orders to the other girls, so that Miria wouldn't be seen as much with them, keeping their group a secret. Also it was better then Rebeka lead the girls activities and Miria ruled over the group, Rebeka could plan anything out, but Miria had the big picture and the means to carry them out. Samantha was on the Newspaper and knew both Cynthia and the Editor well enough to get information from them willingly and openly, also she would be aware of breaking stories before the rest of the school and would serve as the groups information contact. Amanda was a member of the Skater group, hanging with the same guys that Damion had recruited most days after school. They trusted her and included her in most of their discussions which gave her tip offs of their movements and a say in a lot of their activities making her the groups spy. Kelli was Miria's loyal servant and has a lot of friends on the other sports teams. This gives her access to the most muscle in school, with the friendship and school spirit of the Jocks to fall back on, she was the groups muscle. The girls forming "The Spiders" were there to turn the tides in this war against Damion's "Skulls", Miria's own brother was their target, one they executed perfectly. What will happen to the Spiders once everything has ended, will they drift apart, their work finished, will the Populars, no longer preoccupied with the Skulls, seize them for themselves, or will Miria stand her ground with Natalia and form the group for real? ~~~ Name:Allie Blackheart
Age:Freshman-15
Gender:Female
Summery:Normally a happy girl, Allie can be found bouncing around the halls as a spastic freshman. Her older sisters Catherine and Christy constantly scolding her and trying to calm her down, but Allie will have none of it. Brushing her two older sisters off like dirt on her should and continuing to be a happy-go-lucky girl, smiling from ear to ear no matter what. Even though she snubs her sisters attempts to change her, she does love them completely and will defend them ferociously. She secretly wants to grow up and be like her sister Christy, powerful enough to be safe, and stylish enough to get the boys she wants. With her now in the same school as her older sisters, Christy is back in the practice of using Allie as a doll, dressing her and doing her make-up like she had at home. Allie protests but inwardly loves the attention from her older sister and the looks she gets from boys because of Christy's expert taste in clothes. Because of this she is usually closer to Christy then Catherine but Allie loves them both the same. Catherine as always seen Allie as the annoying little sister, her singing interrupting her quiet reading time, or her wining getting in the way of her drawing, but she is still her older sister and loves Allie no matter what. Don't think that Allie's desires to be stylish and powerful will make her vulnerable to Miria or the Populars, in fact its the opposite, she feels these groups rule through fear and only their leader will have the power, Allie wants to be safe, not feared, and she despises the fact that Christy and Catherine are part of a group like that, but puts up with it because all the girls treat her like the 'groups' little sister, watching over her, protecting her and treating her to special rewards. ~~~ Name:Adrian Swift(Red head)
Rachel McBride (Brunette)
Age:Sophomore-16
Gender: Female
Summery:Adrian and Rachel are inseparable. You will never find one without the other, constantly passing notes, snickering in the backs of class rooms, or huddles together at lunch. Many think they are sisters because they share a room, spend every moment with each other and tend to finish each others sentences, but no they are just close friends. The second important fact about these two girls is that they are insane Tornado fans, at every game, home or away, football, basketball, soccer...you name it, their there screaming their lungs out. Fanatics, they paint their faces, make signs and cheer on their favorite 'super-star' Bradly. When the Tornado's win they rush the field along with most of the school body present, hugging and jumping around with the players on the field. They are always at the after parties for wining games and pep-rallies before them. It not uncommon to see them worshiping their idol in the halls, as he soaks up the glory and flirts with them as he will. Adrian and Rachel try their best to stay out of the drama created by the Populars and others in school, considering it a waste of their time. ~~~ Name:Ms. Crystal Devonshire
Age:24
Gender:Female
Summery:Ms Devonshire is a new teacher her at CruelStorm high, fresh out of college with her teaching degree she can't wait to make a difference in some kids life. She teaches English literature to Seniors, and loves having huge class discussions, a hit or miss tactic at CruelStorm High, when the Seniors only want to sleep through class. When she runs into Natalia in her English class she is thrown back into her school days where she was a "cool" girl at her school. Some instinct inside of her still tells her to be 'cool' with the 'cool' kids, needing to feel accepted again, like a high schooler instead of high school teacher. She does what she can to fit in with the Populars, laughing with them, letting them get away with stuff, helping their grades with other teachers and the like. In return, it seems, that the girls have accepted her as one of their 'fringe' friends, making Crystal feel young again. In truth, Natalia and the others know when and how to take advantage of a good thing. Their grades, demerits and such are taken care of and they have an alley on the staff, who loves to gossip, what could be better? So they smile and bare it when Crystal is around, making her believe she is one of the girls again, using her connections to the fullest potential, and laughing at it behind her back.

The Skulls: Damion's Group
Names:Lea Darlinson (Purple Hair)
Tommy Razimundo(Pink Hair)
Jake Jets (Black Hair)
Hunter Nissan (Blonde Hair)
Age:Jake: Senior, 18
Tommy: Junior. 17
Lee: Junior, 17
Hunter: Sophomore, 16
Members: Lee-When Damion transfered to CruelStorm High, he and his sister Miria, were shown around to their classes and shown to their dorms as well, the first day of school. Their guide had been Lee, a Junior who has in the "Ambassador Club", a club of 'nerds' who spent most of their time huddled in the back of the cafeteria. He had an awkward walk and he spoke to the two of them with a shaky scared voice. Damion smiled at the kid, his confidence levels in the toilette, self esteem in the dumps, he was perfect. Damion immediately put his arm around the boy after the tour and said, "Thanks for showing me around, how about I show you a thing or two". The boy was scared and shaky at first, unsure if getting involved with a guy like Damion was a smart move, but it wasn't long before Damion worked his magic, building the boy up as one of his lackies, one of the first members of Damion's group, The Skulls. He taught Lee to walk, to talk, to dress, to flirt and to get into and out of trouble just like he did. Now, Lee wasn't amazing, but it was a success for Damion's first project at CruelStorm High.
Tommy-Everyone has had that class clown, the one who sits in the back and makes rude comments about the teacher, acts up just to get a laugh out of the class. Well that was Tommy, and he was damn good at it. In Damion's first block class he was tired, bored and annoyed to be awake so early, but Tommy managed to put a smile on his face and make him laugh for the whole class. Sitting next to Damion in the back row, the two ended making quite the team when messing with their teacher and Damion showed him some tricks Tommy had never even thought to attempt. Tommy was in awe of Damion's boldness and ability to get away with things without even a demerit. Soon Tommy was seen in the halls with Damion more and more as he took at an apprenticeship with "The Master of tricks" eager to learn more. With the tricks Damion taught him to dress better and flirt better, since being the class clown usually meant you weren't to good at 'smooth' Even though Damion has calmed him down some, he is still the trickster of the group and will be the first to create a scene.
Jake-During Damion's first few days at CruelStorm High School, he was given a dorm room on the 4hth floor, and made it a habit to walk the halls before going to bed. One night, he bumped into Jake Jets, a Senior who had a room just down the hall from his. When Jake brushed past Damion without a second thought it angered Damion, who called after him "You got a problem buddy!" To this Jake just stopped, turned around with a smile and replied, "Not if you don't" And continued his trek to the showers. The next day Damion found his room and cornered Jake, upset but his dis respectfulness the night before. Jake never let Damion's threats phase him, and for some reason it kept Damion from hitting Jake like he would have normally. It was something about Jake's quiet confidence that made Damion like him, something about the fact that Jake knew he could handle himself if he needed to, but wasn't going to step into anyone else's trap that endeared the two boys. And when Damion created the Skulls it was just right to make Jake his second, with his calm nature and great adaptation to stealth, he made the perfect partner in crime, when one was needed.
Hunter-As a Sophomore Hunter is the youngest of the group, and has the most interesting story as to how he came to be part of The Skulls. Hunter was always a cute kid, the nice guy, the best friend, but he was constantly picked on by the Populars. In fact they would look for him and use him as a doll to do their bidding, laughing at him as they went. Damion saw the abuse the boy was going through when his own sister, Miria, ordered the boy to clean her boots, normally nothing big, but when she added that he was to clean the ones she had on with his tongue and to "Make sure the bottoms shine" it bothered him. The idea that this boy feel to the power of this group annoyed him, and as a sign that he held his own power, he tool Hunter under his wing, taught him to have a backbone and to say no to these girls who seemed to rule his very soul. Soon it came that Damion treated Hunter like a little brother he had never had, and his induction to the group was as the "newb" he had no specialty but leaned from all other members, hoping to find his niche in the war against the Populars.
Summary:The Skulls were formed as Damion grew more well known in school. His Fame was quick to spring up and stayed high, his name was a lot of school gossip, he had girls at his feet, and boys on his heels begging for him to take them in like he had The Skulls. But Damion picked his guys by who he got along with and who could be or was a strong member of the group. Specialties weren't a problem, since Damion did all the planning and most of the execution himself, but the backup was needed usually and the followers helped his image. They could usually be found skating around campus or being hooligans somewhere around the Dorms. Hanging out, picking up girls and making some trouble is simply what they do best. It came to be more important that they boys could function when the fight with the Populars broke out. With some quick training and a strict hand, the guys got their stuff together and were a machine in days. Damion, still the front man gave each man a task and position. Jake, his second, became the groups muscle and his best at stealth, leaving him to do most of the secretive execution's. Lee became the groups information guru, he was in with the nerds, since he had been one before Damion took him and reshaped him. So his knowledge of mechanics and science help a lot when the group is planning more technical or complex pranks. Tommy on the other hand was brought in more for laughs then anything else. But when the strife between the populars and the Skulls broke out, Tommy was turned into the fire starter, he would instigate a fight between just about anyone, causing conflict when needed as well as being a Wiz at staying out of it, which came in handy if a diversion or excuse was needed to execute any plan. Hunter came in as the little brother of the group, the one to be taught, to be shown how. He usually ended up being the lackey, doing most of the grunt work of the group, but he did it with the knowledge that it would pay off later. The Skulls, gathered by Damion, were there to show that Damion could be, and was, just as powerful as the Natalia, show that his group is just as powerful as the Populars. Unfortunately it came down to who had more contacts, more time and more experience in the school, and the Populars won out. But the rivalry still purrs underneath the surface of the halls tension.
~~~ Name:Patrick Sonar
Age:Junior-17
Gender:Male
Summery:Patrick plays as the Tornado's first string wide receiver, catching Bradly's passes with perfection, often resulting in a Tornado touch down. Because of this he is usually just called by his last name "Sonar" cause he can track the ball like he is implanted with a Sonar system in his brain. A confident guy with a laid back, surfer attitude, he tends to go with the flow, following Brad around like a lost puppy. In reality Patrick isn't to smart, and probably follows Brad so he remembers where he's going, but that really isn't important when you play for the Tornado's. Girls fall at his feet just like Brads, Patrick usually getting the ones Brad rejects, but it doesn't bother him, "P*ssy is P*ssy" as many say, and Patrick can't remember their names long enough for it to matter anyway. Already being recruited for colleges like his best bud Bradly, Patrick on the other hand, doesn't have the bloated ego that Brad does. He's a modest guy who just loves playing the game and gaming the girls when he's out of uniform. There are times when Patrick does think for himself instead of listen to Bradly's every word, but its usually minor and last only a short time, with Bradly easily able to sway him back to his bidding. The Populars have tried several times to pull Patrick away from Bradly but if Patrick is one thing, its loyal. He will stick by Brad no matter what, his faithful friend and team mate. ~~~ Name: Sidney Peirce
Age:Senior- 18
Gender:Female
Summery:The Captain of the Tornado Cheerleaders, Sidney is extremely popular for a girl so despised by the Populars. She leads the cheers at all the sports games for the Tornado's and continues to carry the Tornado name into the National Competitions for Cheer leading. She can be very bitchy, conniving and manipulative, but she just doesn't have what it takes to take on the girls in the Popular group, their skills and control levels at an all time high. Though the other cheerleaders follow Sidney as their captain, even they back off when Sidney attempts to go toe to toe with the Populars girls. She just can't seem to stand that she isn't the most popular, prettiest girl in school and just can not leave it alone. It’s obvious that Sidney believes in the "head cheerleader football captain" stereotype by the way she goes after Bradly. Having dated once, Bradly got what he wanted and moved on, though Sidney swears there was more to it and that they were meant to be high school sweethearts. Her conniving ways get her about as far as the Populars will let her go, and she can not stand the idea that she isn't good enough for their group. Trying multiple times to create her own group to counter the Populars, Sidney has failed time and time again, as her whole group sides with the Popular girls and abandons Sidney at their word. ~~~ Name:Michelle Corson
Age:Junior-17
Gender:Female
Summery:Michelle is the Council Secretary for student Government and she enjoys her job a lot, spending time with the Council and more importantly with the President. It is no secret that Michelle has a major crush on "xxx", but that she is to shy to talk to him. Well its no secret to anyone but "xxx" of course, who is oblivious to her sideways stares and her longing looks from across the auditorium. Even with the major distraction that gives her the assignments Michelle does a wonderful job recording the meetings and taking care of all the appointments that "xxx" has, as well as making sure the right people are on task for a project. Even though "xxx" is ignorant to her lust for him, he is quick to give her praise when doing something well, if he's paying her any attention. Michelle cares about little else in school other then her classes and can be found in the library often either working on homework or on the next project for the Student Government. She does her best to stay out of the way of the Populars and deeply resents Natalia for flirting with "xxx" so much in her attempt to swing his favor. It has worked before and she is sure it will work again, if she finds him at the right times, but Michelle is determined to be at his side for backup when he needs it. ~~~ Name:Erin Starax
Age:Sophomore-16
Gender:Female
Summery:As a Freshman Erin made the mistake of trying to fit in with the populars, and was devastated by their rejection. She was shy and quiet, and quite plain, three things the Populars do not accept in their group, making for a very public humiliation and a school wide ban on her socially. She has now resorted to studying constantly, hiding in her dorm and staying clear of any kind of social gathering. Erin's parents have tried sending her to a therapist or even offering to let her go to another school but she just doesn't want to leave Tornado. For some odd reason she likes the fact that she is left alone, her only problem being when she has to deal with large groups. Erin is usually the butt of the joke and her worst time is at lunch where she sits alone in the corner of the courtyard hoping to just be left alone. Its very rare to find Erin at school on the weekends almost always heading home to spend the time with her parents and avoid the socialization of the weekend.

Username:[unclaimed]
Name:Bradly McHoover
Age: 17
Sex:Male
Sexuality:[undetermined]
School year:Junior
Nickname:Brad, Target
Personality:Brad is a very proud of him self, as far as he is concerned he is the only one in the county that can throw a perfect spiral almost 65yards, so he must be the most talented person in the universe. Unfortunatly for the rest of the school, most teachers and other students only help to inflate his overstuffed ego and continue to chant his name at games, and tell him he's amazing. It is true that the school team, the CruelStorm Tornado's, are undefeated and have been since Brad joined varsity his Sophomore year, but modesty is something that all 'talents' should practice. Bradly has a bad habit of thinking that he deserves everything that he wants, because he's the football QB and captain he should have his pick of any girl he wants and they should fall at his feet, do what he wants, when he wants....right? Now this would be true of most girls in CruelStorm High school, they do fall at his feet, they offer him just about anything he wants, let him treat them like dogs, but is that what Bradly wants? No. Brad of course has his eyes set on the 'Populars' any one of them would do for him, like any man, he wants what he will never get. The worst thing going for Bradly is that he is an all around a**, he thinks the world of himself and the rest of the football team, but anyone who doesn't, isn't getting anywhere near him without a tongue lashing and probably a few tears. Most teachers turn their heads for the football team, not bothering to grade their papers, giving them A's and choosing not to 'see' their misbehavior in class and the hallway so that the school team keeps winning.
School Background:Brad lived with his mom and dad, grew up well off and never really wanting of anything. He was spoiled rotten and his dad did everything in his power to get him into football. His dad had played college and was going to go pro before tearing his ACL and being unable to play any longer, this made him want all the more for his son to do what he couldn't. So Brads dad was at every game, cheering him on from the stands, then tearing him down in the car, telling him what he did wrong and telling him he'll never go pro without learning to do it right. So game after game, team after team Bradly honed his skills until his sophomore year he made first string varsity QB. His dad couldn't have been happier and Bradly couldn't have gotten cockier. He had gotten so skilled that in practice as well as games he had a no interception, no fumble season, with few throws ever not being caught. He was always right on his mark, placing the ball just in front of his receiver that he earned the nickname 'target' from the guys, since he was always 'right on target'. It was true though that over those years of hardcore training his grades suffered, Bradly never really studied or learned any of the material, leaving him in the dust of other kids academically. So when high school hit, he relied on teachers school spirit to pass him so he could stay on the team, and its worked. The only two classes he put any real work into are Team Sports and Auto-body, two things he actually does well at on his own. He already has scouts looking at him for college scholarships and with B's and A's in classes that he didn't earn, his transcript looks awesome. The question becomes, will he stay on top his Senior year, or will something happen to him, like it did his dad.
Favorite Subject:Team Sports. Well this is an short leap of the imagination. Brad is the biggest sports freak in school, good at basketball, soccer and basketball as well as football. He can even manage to decently play volleyball and hockey when he puts his mind to it, though he considers volleyball a girls sport and hockey for 'pansies'. He plays basketball, as point guard, for the school in the winter as well as Football, as QB, in the fall and baseball, a pitcher, in the spring. In team sports he gets to play people who are also on the teams with him as well as people who have never played. Brad loves schooling them in whatever it is their doing that week, showing off his skill to get the adoration of the guys an they sighs of the girls in class. Showing off is just bred into Brad and team sports is one place he actually can impress people with his OWN work.
Group Position:Bradly has no association with the 'Populars', well none that they will admit. The girls do their best to keep him at arms length and out of their hair, but he seems to keep coming around, trying with lame pick up lines on each member to try and hook him a girlfriend. The girls know its all ego and simple tell him off when he comes around, though he never seems to learn that "no" means "no". His interest in the 'Populars' is more like a kid in a candy store, with no money, wanting what he can't have and constantly scheming to steal some. Though his plans are always foiled by the girls quick wit and disgust for boys like him. Although there is one new 'member', Miria shows promise and is diffinatly at the top of his list. She seems to be a 'leader in training' and would be that 'untouchable' he wanted and she is younger and....well everyone knows freshman are easy...right?
This Year:This year Brad continues his quest to weed out a weaker link in the group and play his little games on her, get her to date him, use and abuse her. This seems ever more possible when the group starts to have issues, seems like some new additions have rocked the boat more then Veronica and Natalia had expected, leaving what Brad thinks to be holes in their armor for him to exploit. We'll see just how much 'weaker' these changes have really made the group, and if Bradly can pull off his 'mac daddy' scheme to get some tail. With Miria keenly in his sights Bradly is running into some more problems them he had planned. Her older brother Damion, a new rising power in school, is crazy protective of her and things start to get heated as he sees what Bradly has in store for his little sister.
~~~ Username:bahamut slayer
Name:Damion Shaw
Age: 18
Sex:Male
Sexuality:Straight
School year:Senior
Nickname:Diablo
Personality:Damion is a very self confident guy, carries himself with a pride and arrogance that could make any girl swoon, it only helps that he's the biggest bad boy this school has ever known. Coming from many other schools, Damion has made a name for himself, being expelled several times for 'behavior issues', but he refuses to say just what he did. It makes him mysterious to others and daring, and Damion is just the boy to expand on that and use it to his advantage. He is a smart guy, but skipping class and a general lack of work ethic is only to be expected from him. His dark smiles can send shivers down your spine and his eyes will follow the lines left behind. He is a very big flirt and loves the feeling getting a girl all hot and heavy gives him, even if he has little interest in her other then that. Once Damion gets an idea in his head to commit some atrocity, he will not let anything get in his way. He has a one track mind and loves to see the disgusted and surprised faces of his victims. Being a transfer student leaves him out in the open, where as he would normally role with a group, so it should be expected he will be recruiting soon. Things are even more interesting now that his little sister is in high school with him. Miria Shaw is just like her brother in several ways, she is dark and twisted on the inside and it was Damion who taught her a lot of the mind games that she has grown so good at. Damion is super protective of his little sister and is seen walking the halls with her sometimes, even when most think its 'not cool' to hang with the younger kids. Damion doesn't honestly care what the others think of him, because he knows just how much better he is and can always take over when he wants. The only thing in his way of ruling this school is the 'Populars' although Damion must admit they are a challenge he can't wait to 'tackle'.
School Background:Damion moved around a lot, moving his sister and family along with him. It seemed worked this way because he was constantly getting kicked out of schools, expelled and suspended from counties and states. Each time had its own story, but after a while they all seemed the same, either he had harassed the faculty, vandalized property to the point where it couldn't be fixed, or even stealing from the school stores. Damion eventually earned his reputation as a 'bad boy' and his nickname 'Diablo' from a school he was expelled from for blowing up every toilette in the school. He wears his record like a badge of honor on his shoulder, proud of the volumes of reports in his school file and the looks he receives from the faculty in the halls after they were notified he was coming to CruelStorm High school. After all this trouble you would think his parents would have done something, anything, to curb their sons horrible behavior, but not at all. The Shaw's encourage both of their children to express themselves the way they feel is best, and that rules are meant to 'rein in a free spirit'. So Damion continues his streak of suspensions, detentions and demerits. Surprisingly he hasn't done anything drastic yet here at CruelStorm High school, which is making the faculty uneasy, always watching their back, thinking it will be his worst yet. But really Damion has honestly not attempted nor wanted to attempt a prank that would get him expelled just yet. This group, the 'Populars' interest him since this is the first school he hasn't been able to waltz into and take over, and they are the power system in play here. There is a twinkle in his eye when he looks at the girls, one of interest, trickery and mischief. It is even more interesting now that they seem to be recruiting his sister, something he would need to keep a close eye on.
Favorite Subject:Detention. It's true, Detention isn't a class but it might as well be since Damion spends most of his school day there. Since he's come to CruelStorm High school, more and more detentions have been issued, and not just to Damion. He seems to be quite the hit, girls and guys a like cussing at teachers, skipping and getting caught on purpose, so that they could possibly share a detention block with Damion and get closer to the illusive new kid that everyone is talking about.
Group Position:Damion is new to the school and isn't really part of the group, though he is noticed and noted within its members. He is deffinatly the eye candy for Veronica and Natalia, Natalia obviously seeing the power it could bring her. Damion though, has little to no interest in joining or dealing with the group just yet, this could change and probably will as the two most manipulative and seductive girls approach him, but for now he is a loner, doing his own thing. When Miria is slowly brought into the group as well Damion wants to be closer to keep an eye on her, he isn't sure how these girls will effect his little sister and he's not sure if it will be good for her or not just yet.
This Year:This is Damions Senior year, and he's certain he wants to finish it here at CruelStorm High school. For Damion all of his reports and pranks have been kiddies work, punk jobs that he used to amuse himself. He has always prided himself on being able to come up with the newest, biggest and baddest prank in history and his Senior prank is just what he's been wait for. He will for certain need some accomplices but it may just take some recruiting, something difficult to do with the 'Populars' around. So it may mean getting closer to them then he would have expected, but he will get it done.
~~~ Username:[unclaimed]
Name:Peter Tyme
Age: 18
Sex:Male
Sexuality:[undetermined]
School year:Senior
Nickname:Scandal Time
Personality:Ever since Peter was little, he had always been the tattle tale, the one who told the teacher on classmates who didn’t put the blocks away right, the kid who made sure to bust the kid with an iPod in his locker, the manipulative one who saw his friend pick his nose and used it to make him trade his pudding at lunch, and that kid who pointed out note passing just cause he knew the teacher would read it out loud to the class. Loving to stir up trouble and ruin people’s reputations, giving him something to gossip about later. Peter doesn’t use all his secrets to print or tell in gossip, some he keeps for blackmail, to get what he really wants, better secrets, revenge and to turn tides in his favor. Even a snitch like Peter has values and standers, if the secret has been out long enough to be around school already, he won’t print it, and if he can’t get it into the next addition before its everywhere, then he deffinatly not interested.
School Background:Peter, being the manipulative creep that he is, has only one friend, one person that he feels is respectable enough to consider an honorable person, The President of the Student Council, Brandon. They have been in the same class since middle school and when he just couldn't dig up any dirt at all on the president, he began to form a respect for him, that later developed into a friendship. Even though Brandon is all about honor, he over looks his friend ‘issue’ with gossip and looks at the good it can cause. Information was key in Brandon’s world and Peter got him that information, so a partnership formed as well as Brandon rose in the school council, the information Peter fed him gave him a step up, and the scandals it exposed Peter to helped him sell more papers. While the president likes to play fair, Peter likes using dirty methods to help him. Currently that method involves the group called the poplar's that’s in the way of his friend goal. It doesn’t hurt that they are always the schools top news, so with their names in the school paper at least three times a week, Peter uses his spy Cynthia to dig up enough dirt to her his dig in on the group weekly. This year there seems to be a lot of conflict and turmoil in the group, caused by himself and others under his wing as well as their own doings, something that has caught not only Peter’s attention, but the whole schools. Which makes it an ideal chance to not only to help his friend, but also to publish many articles to his liking.
Favorite Subject:Sociology. Peter likes to understand how society works, what makes things popular, what influences people decisions and why such decisions are necessary. He wants to know why we as a society do as we do and what we want in that society, to make his material reflect that need, those wants. What people watch, read and say says so much of our culture, to understand that culture is Peter’s way of learning how to put his mark on it, to influence it, change it. He wants to be able to write something in his paper, in a way that people will read it, and have it on the tongues of all his readers for days.
Group Position:Peter isn't really a part of the group, in fact he is more likely their enemy and someone they try to keep at a safe distance, unless they are in need of his press. He constantly watches the girls through his own watching and Cynthia, waiting for the slightest hint of anything worth noting. The girls are Peters best paper sellers and most interesting stories. When the front cover can say "Inside Scoop: Populars!" people pay attention and pick up a paper. And once they've picked it up for that story the other articles are read as well. His obsession with the populars is normally gossip around school as well and some people wonder if its a healthy thing for him, but he doesn't bother himself with rumors about himself, "they don't sell papers".
This Year:This year is all about the big story, "How the Populars Fell". He wants the inside scoop and the first print on why and how they fell, after reporting enough info to speed that process up of course. He wants to help his friend Brandon take over the school the way it should have been when he was voted president of the student council. Peter knows he can, he he tries hard enough, be the reason the power group falls and want to be the cause of its spreading as well. Of course this all rests on the fact that they fall in the first place, so he is doing everything he can to ensure that they do, including planting spies, causing as much drama and influence that he can to work small wedges into the blocks of the group. This year is all about really making his point, showing that the pen is mightier then all.
~~~ Username:Akran_The_Necro
Name:Brandon Smithison
Age: 18
Sex:Male
Sexuality:Straight
School year:Senior
Nickname:Pres
Personality:Brandon is a very calm and collected sort of guy, his idea of a fight being a heated debate over ethical ideals. He has never been one to lose his head or his cool, staying mellow in most situations. This along with his deeply seeded sense of duty toward his peers makes him the perfect Student Body President. He is constantly thinking of ways to better the school, and finding people that want the same thing. Honor is his most cherished quality, in him and in others around him. Brandon has always felt that no matter what you’re saying, as long as it’s honest, you have the right to say it, which I why he listens to every suggestion from those around him with earnest, and respect. Quiet in most aspects of his life he tends to be the 'strong silent type' always the friend to go to for help, the one who knows just what to say to make you feel better. His teachers adore him for his affinity to tutor and help others in class without pushing himself. He never looks like he is trying to help, always seemingly falling into the position of authority or helper. His kind and sweet nature is coupled with a wonderful amount of patience, but that is not to say that when he reaches his limit he is kind or sweet about it. He can have a temper when things go wrong, trying to get attention at a meeting, working around disrespectful people and people like the Populars, get his blood boiling. Though even being a tight-laced official is bred into him, he longs for the freedom of those around him. To break a rule, get a detention or even cause a fight, something that would take him from the monotony of his position in office where he must constantly set an example.
School Background:Growing up in a home with both his Mother and Father until the age of 13, their constant fighting forcing him to mature much faster then normal to protect his brother form his Fathers rages, and his Mother’s emotional instability. He grew up taking care of his brother, and his parents who were almost as childlike as his younger brother, after their divorce. A natural born leader, he had an innate need to make sure things are taken care of, coming from always having to do things for himself and those around him. On the school council in middle school this trait come into play for him, taking the lead and pulling together committees in the first meeting, leading to his election to Presidential office. By his 8th grade year he has already been voted Most Likely to Become President of the United States, starting off his Freshman year with the same bang at his 6th. Coming in he was told he would have to wait until he was an upper class men to run, so he worked and worked, got good grades and worked with others to get there. The only blight in his high school career was that his Freshman year, Natalia and Veronica also showed up, and by the time they were Juniors, they had a fully solidified group, pitted against the school council for control of the school. This year, his Senior year, he is still the duty driven, honorable guy he has always been, but with leadership in his grasp now, he is slowly feeling its burden, wishing for the freedom he squandered away working to get the Presidency. Still having major issues with the Populars, seeing them as immoral and corrupt, yet something about them is attractive. He looks at their freedom in leadership and wishes that he could rule the same way, but with honor and fairness. What troubles him more then anything is that, he has a secret crush on Natalia, the leader of the Populars, his number one enemy, and somehow the object of his secret affection. They idea that the good boy, the tight-laced rule maker could possibly get with the bad girl who goes out of her way to break them intrigues him, doing his best to hide it around other council members, and secretly plots to change her. He wanted her, and he would have her, but he would have her his way.
Favorite Subject:History. Brandon loves to learn about how different governments dealt with the issues that plagued time, the wars and peace that sprung new life and new prosperity with the right inter workings of governments. How society reacted to the problems it faced, changes in idealisms and fundamentalism, and how those changes shaped the future, things like that seems to hit home with Brandon, wanting to some day be someone making decisions that would also shape the future. Remembering names and dates easily makes the class not only easy but enjoyable for him, discussion and debates of theology and regimes are his outlet for the day, able to shot out answers and statements, and have no repercussions for his actions, loving the class participation and chance to say what he really thinks.
Group Position:Though Brandon isn't part of the group really, he is constantly watching them like a hawk, always waiting for their next stunt, waiting to have to clean up their next mess and being approached by them to sway votes in their favor pushing something through the council for them. This leaves Brandon a lot of resentment for the girls, they are the one thing that is in his way of creating the perfect school, the perfect legacy for himself. But secretly wishes he didn't have to hate them, wished he didn't have to curse them every chance he gets in public, wanting to be as free as they are to do as they please, have others do the work for him, rather then having to do it all for himself. It doesn't help that he has a secret crush on Natalia, the leader of the Populars, for embodying everything he wishes he could be, wishes he could have. He longs to be the good guy to tame the bad girl, the man to tame the lioness that Natalia is, he would do it this year, and take back his school in the process
This Year:This year is all about his legacy, he wants to do something important, something he'll be remembered for and he knows exactly what. He has to beat the Populars, shut them down, make it impossible for them to get their way...but how? Especially with his conflict in feelings for Natalia, every time she bats her eyelashes at him he wants to give in, his logic being the only thing keeping him strong against her, all the while wishing he could please her, but knowing that it would let her and her group win, something he could not do. This year was about writing his name in school history, and starting on his path to having his name written in the same history books he used in his favorite class, and he was willing to do anything to get it, well...almost anything.
