Introduction
Once upon a time, in a land not so far away from the rest of society, there lay a colossal building, known as a boarding school. Within it's walls held thousands of adolescent boys and girls whom anxiously awaited to be released from the confides of the iron gates. Rules were strict, and rarely broken...well that's what they thought until the Crimson Club was re-opened just months prior. Since then, masses of adolescence crowd the streets, trying to gain entrance to the musically defined club. With new bands spurting up every week, competition rises through the city, but will anyone make it big? We'll have to see.

Rules
1. I am in charge of the role play, therefore I make the rules 2. SPELL CORRECTLY. I understand a few mis-spellings but don’t make it a habit 3. No being “God”. You may only kill another character if you and them have both consented to it, and had previously informed me. 4. Obey all regular Gaia rules and guide lines 5. Originally swearing was to be kept to a minimum but I'm sure living in the city would make it hard and only take away from the storyline. So have fun biggrin 6. Romance is, of course, encouraged, but no cybering 7.All profiles must be PM-ed to WithPain with the title "The Irrevocable", and you must use the profile skeleton I provide. Let 1-2 Days for a reply of acceptance 8. Please remain active. If you have to go away for a period of time, please contact WithPain, as well as make your character do something so that they won’t be there. Therefore, allowing the story to continue. 9. Do not post until I have told you that you have been accepted. 10. I expect all involved to post from numerous times a day to once every 2-3 days when the role play is active. If you are unable to fill that requirement please contact me and we can sort something out. I understand if job or school comes in the way, since I currently have both. 11. If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to PM WithPain. I'll be happy to help and listen.
Any new rules will be in bold

The school wasn't Paris. It wasn't China, it wasn't India, it wasn't Italy, and it most undoubtedly was not England. There were two chipped gargoyles guarding a building that obviously was not worth the work, which sat daintily around a kerfuffle of bright gum wrappers and compressed test papers. I considered setting up a campground in the woods parallel to the lines of constrainedly linear windows. I glanced around, swiftly noticing the homogeneity of my peer's clothing, then looking down at my own. Hanging loosely on my body was a Spring Kimono, my favorite, in fact, but perhaps not the correct choice considering my location. I'm not Asian, but that meant nothing. My style was...diverse. Everyone else was sporting some sort of t-shirt or blouse, most of which stayed on the safe-side with dry colors that expressed little to no delta from those around them. One boy gave me a look as if I'd stepped out of a toaster with an orange duck bill and two panda bears strapped to my back. I shot the smile that Dad once described as "outlandishly stunning." That ought to set him in his place. Instead of looking away with radiating crimson cheeks (as expected), he continued his stringent stare. It occurred to me then that conduct wasn't all that substantial here.

The sun beamed through the eastern windows of what I believed was my dorm room. A soft groan escaped my parched throat, as I pulled the covers over my head, trying to drown out the radiance of the early rising sun. The roaring of the past night's crowd still rang through my ears in deafening proportions. His smooth hand ran over the small of my back, making it's way around my waist and pulling me against it's full body form. Unhesitatingly, I jerked away from the hold, resulting in falling off the bed and hitting my head against the wall. Startled, I pushed myself up so that I was leaning against the wall. Holding my head with one hand, I looked up at him. "Please, don't do that, Demetri, You know how jumpy I am," I spoke, with exhaustion coating each syllable. "Help me up?" My lips pouted themselves, hoping for his assistance, as they usually did; my arms extended out towards his.
