In the 21st century magic is just something that is seen in movies, novels or comics. It even something that some deluded people follow as a religion, sure that they can cast 'spells' or call on spirits. But where does this come from, well it could be the witch trails hundreds of years ago.

In medieval times if someone was thought to be a witch it was the fire or a drowning nad that worked quiet well for those that had no power, they were just poor inoccent people. But there was magic everywhere in that time, the seeds of an apple for protection, and amulet or the circle creating unity.

Well it was this that created the first white witches, those that used magic for protection. Over the years they were the ones to keep the demonic hoards at bay, but after the witch trails many were killed, as they would not protect themselves. And year after year let more demons into our world.

With the 'old' magic gone new witches were born with supernatural gifts such as forsight or limited control over fire to protect them from the powerful demons now plaguing the world. Its now in the 21st century as I said before and magic has develop to a few here and there having the gifts of magic and many of them never using them.

But it has come to a time where the magic has gathered strongly into a group of teenagers, those that are destined to save the world from the demons who are freely killing each night. To help these teenagers is an acient book that has most demonic species and how to vanquish them with either a spell or potion. Whith this these teenagers must balance their normal life with their supernatural one, keeping the knowledge of magic hidden.

Ok each teenager is learning to control their power so they don't just go 'fire' and have perfect control etc. Their powers aren't meant to be super strong, only things like moving objects, teleportation etc as they use chantations to vanquish demons.

Just post your profiles here and your powers are subject for approval if I deam them too powerful.

Phoenix stormclaw
Name: Michael
Status: Moved on
Age: 16

Appearance: User Image
Power: Forcefields ((Generic, but meh))
Traits: Having played videogames all his life and getting halfway to blackbelt before quitting through boredom, Michael has a good eye for tactics and can hold his own in a brawl, if he has to use violence. ((No, I'm not copying Icy here, this is me. ))

Name: Abigail
Status: Moved on
Age: 16
Personality: Loves everyone, rather shy in a cute kind of way, kind, gentle. Michael is her best friend, when he begins to talk she holds him in awe that somebody could talk so fast. Doesn't really know Cris.

Traits: Likes to play RPG games (all sorts), draw and sing. Has a lovely voice.

Dema
Name: Kendra Moon, goes by Kenny (more musical names, because I have no creativity)
Age: 18
Personality: Abrasive, angry, and bitter.
Appearance: Thick brown hair and black eyes set in a hard face that reveals experience and hardship, as well as an innate stubborness.
Power: Gets random glimpses of the future.
Biography: Kenny has been expelled from several schools for cheating, although definitive proof has never been found. However, despite knowing nothing of the material she would occasionally get perfect scores on her tests. A foster kid, Kenny finally gave up on her foster parents and school, running away. Survives on a small sum of money she won in the state lottery, although she keeps busy at several odd jobs, none of which she's been able to hold down. Recently arrested for possession, Kenny now does community service at a local high school as the assistant janitor.
Weakness (I felt this necessary): Kenny's visions are often vague and incomplete. Constantly she misreads them and occasionally doesn't even notice, acting on what she believes is "intuition." Is ignorant is many subjects, like math and science.
Traits: Despite being a drop-out, Kenny harbors a secret love for reading and foreign languages. She secretly takes classes at the local community college. In her more public life, the woman adores games of chance and a good game of hockey.

Ironic Dawn

Personality: In reality is quite serious, sensitive and deeply protective of herself and those close to her.

Biography: Grew up in an orphanage so those closest to her were the Sisters that looked after her and her best friends there; they very much have become her family. Having had a bad experience at her original school, she is now unwilling to let others except those she grew up with in her thoughts. Being orphans, school wasn't great and Jackie made it her point to protect her 'family' as well. Jackie excelling in her studies meant she was head-hunted by the school she's enrolled in now and apparently more happy.

Traits: Seemingly outgoing and carefree, on top of being atheletic and intelligent, Jackie is popular at her new school and always surrounded by a crowd of people. Yet she in many ways portrays the phrase "You can be surrounded by people and still be lonely."

Screw all you 16 year-olds. Someone needs to be able to buy beer in this group. Or vote. Or get lottery tickets. Or something...

Lucus was stitting against one of the old oak trees just outside the school building. His hands were flying acroos his laptop as he tried to finish the essay that was due for english, an essay about the poems of John Donne and there relivance in today's society.

John Donne's poetry is relevant in today's society as his holy sonnets, This is My Play's last Scene and Batter My heart in particular show the hardship Christians face for their religion. Even though these poems are based on Christianity it also can be of relevance to many other religions are his themes and concepts are universal. His love poetry also has relevance, such as The Flea and The Good Morrow as he uses the themes of how two lovers feel when they are with each other and how the repond to the outside world.

Finishing Lucus grinned as he streched, Japanese first then society and culture then recess, the best line up ever. As the bell rang Lucus headed off to room 5.

Interestingly enough, Kenny's mind was on similar topics. Few would have guessed the grizzled looking janitor was secretly pondering John Donne's aubades. Although he was one of her least favorite metaphysical poets, there was very little else to think about. All she had heard for the last few weeks were students chattering about the lastest English assignment.

Donne had never truly interested her, but he'd had his moments. However, one was unlikely to find interesting poetry in high school curriculum. Or anywhere for that matter. In a fit of sanity, Kenny had scrawled one of her favorite poems by Baudelaire on the sides of the school in brilliant red spraypaint. It had been worth the extra work just to finally bring something worth reading to the eyes of the students. Besides, it wasn't like they could prove anything.

Her mind wandering, Kenny continued her work gardening the front. Her ipod tucked lovingly in both ears, she almost completely shut out the miserable brats surrounding her. Despite being so close to them in age, she couldn't imagine feeling anymore alien than she did here.

((Don't know about other Aussie schools, but a typical day at my school is period 1 &2, recess, 3 &4, lunch, then 5&6. Each period goes roughly for 48 minutes. And that's if you're lucky enough not to get period zero.))
((Hmm...aged 16, so year 10/11? 11 it is then))

Michael hummed softly to himself as he walked through the school, heading for the science wing. He never felt like Psychology in the morning, but at least it was better than Physical education. Michael hated Phys ed with a passion, and was grateful that he had no 'active' subjects this year. Nope, Michael was far more interested in philosophy and linguistics. Anything to do with text fascinated him, so it was no surprise that all of Michael's subjects suited him perfectly.

Swapping tunes in his head, Michael began loudly humming a song he'd heard Abigail sing before. She has talent. Hmm...I wonder where she might be. Oh well, time for psyche.

Lucas grinned to Kayla as he sat next to her near the front.
Did you get the essay done? Kayla mouthed to him as the door slamed shut as their teacher, Yamada Sensei walked in.

Just. Did you understand any of the homework Yamada sensei gave us? Lucas mouthed back.

Yeah, how hard could it be, all you had to do was learn the names of hobbies, Kayla whispered as she sighed, it was soo like Lucas to stuff it up.

"I guess so, I probably would have understood it better if I wasn't engrosed in Van Von Hunter " Lucas replied a little to loud. With a few swift steps Yamada sensei had become close enough to thump Lucas over the head with his teacher's planner, which really hurt. Grinning Kayla turned to the fround of the classroom.

"No that we have started, get out your homework. Lucas perhaps you could start us off. Give us the word for novels and say that you like it, than that you hate it."

"Novel is Shosetsu. Shosetsugaskidesu. Shosetsugakiraidesu," Lucas replied, glad that he had atleast learned that word.

"Very well. Now today we are going to go over how to compare things. Lucas; tenisutogorufuto, dochiranohoogasukideska. What did I just say?"

"I don't know Yamada sensei."

"Then you will spend the next half an hour doing drills, Page 23. At the ned of the class you will give a minute speech on comparing atleast 10 different hobbies."
