Hello, I am glad you have come here and I wish you luck. This is LITERATE-ADVANCED
You have to be skilled and know the basics, because you have to fill out an entry form to join.

Now first things first, rules.

Limits:
Keep this PG-13, so Gaia doesn't get angry, and follow Gaia's rules as well.

Literacy:
I don't expect you to do three paragraphs a post, no. But I do expect something we all can reply to. I despise one liners with a burning passion, no one liners, Ok? Thank you.

Intros:
Intros must be two to three paragraphs long, have a problem with this? Leave. Now, Actual paragraphs not some loooooong thing. Separate it into paragraphs, you learned this in seventh grade, yes? This is where it is useful (:

List Intros:
No, no list intros. Or I will have to hurt you, this is Literate role playing remember. If you are not sure what list intros are it's

Name:
Age:
Looks like:

None of those please, that's why we are using Intros.

Doubling:
Yes you may double, but if you are different genders. Meaning if you double you are playing a boy and a girl so one gender doesn't take over.

Romance:
Yes, let's have some romance, but let's keep it at the limits rule and have it PG-13

Slash:
You can have this, if your character is Gay and or Lesbian, please make sure other people have one to so you're character isn't left out of the romance.

Characters:
We are not perfect, don't have your characters perfect, no Mary-sue's and Gary-sue's please. :]

Basics:
No Power Playing, God moding, proper Grammar, no *'s when in actions., Use OOC and BIC and all those other things. If you are unsure of any of these please leave, those are the basics that Literates should know.



ENTRY FORM

Name:
How long you have been role playing:
Your character:
Their powers:
Gender:
Doubling yes/no:

All of those are pretty easy, except the intro part, it has to be long, nice intro. That is what it all comes down to, if you fail on the intro you fail on getting into this. Also for the intros the school name is "Trei de heights" if you want to include that in the intro. :]

Please PM me the information DO NOT post it on this forum. I will later announce when the role play will start. It will start when people join and qualify.

Thank you and have a nice day, please join. :]

THE INTRO'S
Name: Belle
How long you have been role playing: Year and a half
Your character: Damion Alexander Montgomery
Their powers: Can turn invisible
Gender: Male
Doubling yes/no: No
Your intro:

It was a normal day, sunny out, warm; just all nice outside. It’s currently September and obviously its fall, but it’s always warm here at this school. At this school isn’t so normal though, this boarding school just isn’t your average school, it a school for the gifted. This school is known as Trei de heights. It was founded about ten years ago when a band of people (obviously gifted) formed a school for others that might be gifted as well; and it was a complete success. Now over one-thousand students attend this school and have learned how to control their powers and have become successful after they graduated, thanks to Trei de heights.
Anyways, the students took their things inside, met up with old friends from the previous years, things like that having fun on the first day. Nothing was going to happen really, except a meeting during dinner time but it was early afternoon right now so it would be a while till anyone headed over to the cafeteria, so people just walked around for now.
One in particular sat on the stairs of the school scanning the area that was around him with his dissimilar eyes, one that is a yellow color, and the other that is blue. Such strange eyes but the male loved them it made him looked different, he didn’t like being like everyone else with there same color eyes, it was to…boring. The boy’s hair is a pale white; like snow which made his eyes looked even brighter then they were, like his pale skin made his eyes look bigger as well. His hair went down to his shoulder but it was thin and cupped his head so it looked good on his small frame.
His clothing consisted of a long sleeve black shirt with a white jacket over it that went down past his hips a little bit. His bottom half has dark blue skinny jeans that clings to his skinny waist and legs, obviously. His feet clad in white vans slip-ons with black strips on the top that the boy did himself with a sharpie out of pure boredom.
This boy always seemed to get bored a lot, his gift wasn’t that special, and all he could do is make him invisible. Of course you could mess with people but it got boring after a while and people started to catch on and knew it was him messing with people. Besides the male didn’t like doing that anyways, he was to nice. He was a pure gentleman and always helped people out if he could, he wasn’t the talkative type but he still hung around with tons of people at once.
This boy is named Damion Alexander Montgomery. He is currently attending his second year of Trei de heights, becoming a sophomore. Before he came to this school he would just turn invisible randomly and wouldn’t be able to come back for a while, and ever since he joined he has been able to control it better; although sometimes it happens but he can come back easier then before. Anyways he is fifteen years old and will be sixteen January 3rd. He isn’t that tall, only about five six; he was glad he wasn’t too tall or short, even though he liked being different he liked being an average height for some reason.
Anyway, Damon tapped his foot a little bit getting impatient as he waited for his friends, it was getting boring, and usually his friends would entertain him. Little did Damon know was this year will be more entertaining than he would ever intend.


Name: elphy_and_fiyero
How long you have been role playing: on gaia not long but I've done roleplays on two other sites and have written my own stories for a few years.
Your character: Riley Talbot
Their powers: creates and controls water
Gender: female
Doubling yes/no: no but if needed I can.
Your intro:

My heart was beating so fast I didn't know what to do......where to go. The image of what just happened raced through my mind. *I can't believe I did that.* I thought. Why me? Why did my happy life have to end? Why did I have to be cursed? I couldn't stop. It was not an option. Even if my lungs felt like they were going to burst. I knew if I stopped my legs would fall off. By each step even my bag seemed to get heavier and heavier. Blood dripped on the side of my face. What was I running from? No one was chasing me. What I had done happened and nothing could change that. I hoped with all my might that I would wake up and this would all be a dream. But no matter how hard I tried I never woke up. You can't wake up from a dream when you're already awake. How many more times would this happen? How many more loved ones would I kill if I didn't control my curse?

The trees seemed to come more and more together. As I pushed them away I got scratched. I did not even dare stop and look at them. My past was over. My family was gone. There was no one left. What was I to do? I had killed my family and there was nothing to undo it. Again the thought of stopping to rest crossed my mind. But where? I couldn't just stop where I was. I had to find shelter. A place to stay. A place to rest......to pull all my thoughts together and control my discovery.

Out of now where a large building appeared. I stopped to read the sign. My body began to shake but some how I was able to hold myself up. "School for the Gifted." Is that what I was? Gifted? Maybe this is where I was supposed to go. I mustered all the strength I could and walked in the doors. I didn't look at anyone or anything. The cool air from inside flowed over my aching body. Immediately I closed my eyes, not even wanting to see the state my body really was in. If I was feeling this much pain I knew that I looked much worse. The death of my family flashed again in my mind. I buried my face in my hands and cried. There was no use denying what I had done. I had drowned my family and there was nothing I could do. Nothing at all.



Mind if I hop in? It looks interesting.

Name: Crystal
How long you have been role playing: O.o... Um... I haven't counted recently... more than two years?
Your character(s): Apollo and Thorn Russel (twins)
Their powers: Apollo is a shapeshifter- he change forms into any kind of cat he wants. But only cats. Thorn is an empath- she can feel the emotions of the people around her.
Gender(s): male and female
Doubling yes/no: <.< ... >.> ... Um, yes?
Your intro: The old red car puttered away, a woman leaning halfway out the window to wave at the pair as she disappeared around the bend in the driveway. The girl and boy stood motionless on the sidewalk, awed into submission by the sheer size of the building before them. The redhead gulped, her blue/green eyes wide with a combination of intimidation and shock. She had never been outside of her little country home. This building looked, well... too big. The male reached out and took her hand, smiling confidently. His hair was midnight-dark, but the boyish freckles on his cheeks made him look younger than he really was. His eyes, so like and yet unlike his twin's, gleamed green/blue in the sunlight, impressed by the proportions of the school.

"So this is it, huh?" The redhead nodded, her eyes still fixed on the building. With a grin, the boy reached out and tugged on her long red braid. She looked at him disapprovingly, the fear fading from her eyes. "Well, come on Thorn. We can't stand here all day, can we?" Thorn sighed, picking up her little duffle bag.
"I guess so. But really Apollo, do you think this is right?" The dark-haired boy laughed, grinning.
"It's an adventure, sis! We'll never get another chance like this!" Golden-brown skin warmed by the sun, and her heart cheered by the waves of confidence washing off of her brother, Thorn nodded.

Their powers had been in evidence since they were toddlers. Of course, one could hardly miss how the little boy kept turning into a kitten and back again. Or how the little girl started to cry every time someone else got hurt. Hiding them in the country had been the only solution. But Mom and Dad couldn't handle everything. What with Dad being a famous author, traveling the nation on tour every time he released a new book, and Mom a business owner (breeding, selling, training and racing horses), it seemed they were going to be forgotten. Then a cousin sent a letter, telling them about this 'school for the gifted'. Apollo was all for it, while Thorn, who hated large numbers of people, felt it would be better just to stay home. But here they were- on the doorstep, registered, paid for and ready to move in. One twin ready for adventure, and the other ready to lock herself in a closet and never come out again.
