[This RP uses a Beta RP Engine called: Fortune (Created by your's truly)]
Dear Applicant,
Welcome to Crescent High, a school run completely by the students, a place where anyone can come to learn, make friends, fall in love, and become who- ever they want to be. This school, resides in the city of Luck. Some people wonder why they called it Luck, perhaps the founders believed that it were luck that helped them build this city.
Anyway, my name is Kazuki Aoba, the Student Council president. I hope to see you attend our glorious school and I also hope to see you at opening ceremonies.
Our school, if you choose to attend, offers many possi- blities for you to experience. We have a variety of clubs that offer knowledge and experience in many different areas, such as: Sports, Music, Film-making, Drama, Astrology, Martial Arts and many more. We are also accepting any ideas for new clubs for our students to attend as our school motto is: "Ideas are life, life is fun."
You will be joining class 1-C. I hope you make a lot of friends with your new opportunities.
-Kazuki.

About this RP:
This Role-Play is a mechanically designed and free form. It is an RP designed to teach users how to develop characters (without pictures) and stories in situations in which you cannot control.
As the creator of this RP, I will be controlling the world and my purpose is to make your RP character have a weird experience. (Luck). All NPCs, non player characters including the birds, school staff, shopping mall security, everything, can be controlled by me. All weather changes, time frames, how long the grass grows, will be controlled by me.
As a player in this RP, you only have to control your character. Everything else, you can sit back and watch. Your character will go through Crescent High, for all three years.

Game Mechanics:
There are many mechanics in this game. Please read to make sure you understand what they are.
News Clippings:
Basic news that is posted every day which can be used as a conversational item. Or affect the actual RP.
Points System:
Over the course of the RP, you will be given challenges. These challenges will give you points, these points will basically represent your characters report card. The more point you obtain, the more options that will be available to your character.
The users with the highest points by the end of each school year. (Whenever I deem necessary) Will get prizes. (Such as: Monthly Collectibles or Gaia Cash).
Fortune System:
The fortune system is a daily posting of an index of statistics. Every morning, unless the current RP story specifies otherwise, will have a new fortune posted everyday.
This fortune system will be primarily used to for challenges.
The stats that will be covered with the fortune system are. Money, Romance, and Personal. Money - Refers to Challenges that gives points. Romance - Refers to Challenges that gives items that modify the amount of points you get for other challenges. (Multipliers). Personal - Refers to Challenges that gives you benefits. (Benefits are anything that helps your character along the year. Jobs for instance.)
The stat indexes are from 1-100. Anything lower than 50 is a negative index. Anything higher than 50 is a positive index. 50 is neutral.
If you receive a challenge that has a negative index and you fail it. There is a consequence for failing. Which is the loss of the amount of points: 150 - stat.
If there is a positive index, there is no consequence, and if you win, you receive that index as bonus points. Which you can use modifiers to alter, and get more points.
(See: Challenges)
Challenges:
Whenever I see good RPing from a player, I will post a challenge for them. It is up to the player specified in the challenge to accept it or not. Challenges come in three different subjects (previously stated in the fortune system): Money, Romance, and Personal.
For Example: I will post: [Character Name - Challenge] in a specific color. The player would then post: [Challenge Accepted] in the same color. When you accent a challenge, you must immediately stop posting till the challenge is posted.
When you receive a challenge, it becomes a turn based system. (Players must continue to post in the challenge color).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Challenge Example: School Trip - Personal
Due to some mix-up with the schedules, you missed the train home. There are no more trains running tonight, but you have to get home by tomorrow morning to write your final exams! It takes twelve hours to run home and you don't know the directions.
During your trip home you also have to study!
You cannot: Hitch Hike. Take the Bus. Take a Plane. Take a train. Use any Unnatural Superpowers.
You must reference: Arcade Food Lack of Money
NPCs: Your choice.
Find your way home. Use any method, or any talk to any NPC around.
Win Conditions: Roll Dice 1d6 > 3 Land 4-6 three times.
Lose Conditions: Land 1-3 three times.
RP ends @ 99:99:99 Gaia Time.(Some decent time limit)
How it works is that: The player to reference all those items or subjects in the RP. My job is to make it hard for him/her to get home by use of NPCs or environmental hazards.
Player is only allowed to post once before letting me intervene. The player is only allowed to reference one subject/object per turn. The player must also roll a 6-sided dice(die). If the player lands above 3(4-6), I post a positive response. Else, I post negatively. If player chooses to talk to an NPC, it is automatically my turn. The player must end his or her post with an action. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Item System: Items are granted to players that successfully finish challenges. There are two types of items.
Modifiers: They are used to either modify bonus points or Change the index rating of a fortune stat, if you're unlucky. Modifiers can be used before or after a challenge. And have one use only.
Benefit: Items that will allow you to do things that other players cant. Such as: a Job Item. Is a permanent modifer that will allow you to gain extra bonus points for every Money challenge. Benefit items are passive.

[City of Luck Officially Started: Please remember what the Day-Night Times are]
----------------- Today's Fortune ----------------- Money: 9 Romance: 29 Personal: 53 ----------------- News Clippings: ----------------- The top anime of the week is called: Super Mech Wars.
There have been a few accidents early this morning, during the morning rush, there was a four car pile-up in front of the Arcade.
School starts today as children groan at the fact they must face another year of school. We happened to meet Kazuki Aoba, the teenage head of Crescent High, on his way to prepare for the opening ceremonies. We interviewed him: "Are you excited for this new year of school?" "Of course." "How do you feel being the head of a student run school?" "Well, I don't know, more or less the same, except for the responsibilities given to me." "Do you think this will be a great year?" "Of course." Afterwards he smiled and walked off.
A new hit artist, Yumi, has released her hit single. She will be at the Northland mall today for autographs.
[The arcade is not available today.]

[Gym A - Morning Before Classes]
Kazuki had awakened early this morning to prepare for the opening ceremonies. He had lots of work to do, however, he was stopped in the morning by some news reporters. After enduring some meaningless questions, he headed directly to Gym A, where the opening ceremonies were.
"Eh... let's see. Sound. Check. Mics. Check. Speech. Check."
He had to be sure everything was prepared, his hard- working attitude forced him to. He'd been in the Student Council for three years now, and it was finally his turn to be the head of the school.
[Move to: Student Council Clubroom]
