An End to the Music
This RP is based on the patterns in the current school system I see around me every day. There is hardly anyone interested in a career in music anymore, and because if this, schools are suddenly defunding the music programs. This is leaving many high school and college student severely disappointed and sometimes without an outlet for their emotions that music helps them with. I lived this situation in high school and it ruined my last two years. I am now pursuing a BM in music at Sonoma State University but I am still very frustrated that people do not see the value of a music education. So I am venting this way. Here it is.
The year is 2050 in the US. An education in music is now so uncommon, it might as well be similar to a Jirachi in Pokémon. To be known as a music major in this society is something so unusual that most of the time, you are excluded from most others and looked at as a waste of space and government money. This has caused many music loving adults to be shameful of their interests and falsely pursue another major that is more socially acceptable such as math, or science. However, they still continue to share their passion with others of their kind away from prying eyes. All music classes, professors and events are held in places where others not of that kind never go and are of course, unwelcome. You must hide your passion at all costs for fear of being persecuted. You are one of these people. However, to make things interesting, you also have a Gift.
Your gift revolves around what your strongest musical skill is. For example, a singer's gift would be something involving his/her voice. Please get creative! I would love to see some off the wall shit up in here. This gift may not be used right away in the timeline, but it WILL most certainly be used. Choose wisely as it will most likely save your life or someone else's. All characters will be attending the same school, (which I have not decided yet). Some may know each other and others may not. If you want to interact with another player, slide into their DM's. Pretty simple CS:
Name
Age
Gender
Sexuality
Personality
Backstory
Relationship Status
Gift
False Major
I am open to suggestions and of course PM me if you are interested but want to make some sort of accommodation
