For all the players who made changes to their character sheets by the due date, thank you for the effort, and welcome to Harold's Academy. Please move your character sheet over to the character tab at your earliest convenience. [color=7ea7d8]A special note:[/color] [@pkken] While applications did close technically, we seemed to have lost two applicants during the application review process. After consulting with the players (who spoke favorably of you), I've decided you can create an application for this roleplay, but ONLY under the condition that your character has to be [color=7ea7d8]male[/color]. I can't make any exceptions to this requirement, as our cast is overwhelmingly female and needs a little more balance in this regard. If you're okay with that, I look forward to seeing your completed character sheet. :) FYI, there are no more positions open for Illuminaire.

Sometimes it doesn't work, so she tries not to force it on people as they could find her annoying and it could result in them not liking her, so she keeps it in check. She's very passionate about her hobbies; one of them, in fact, is reading fantasy stories. The thrill of adventure and learning new things is very exciting to her. She often dreams about her own adventures and writes them down in order to make a book out of it. She enjoys playing piano. She's about just over average level in skill for it, but it doesn't stop her from smiling. When meeting new people, she'll give them a fair enough chance to see what kind of person they are. She enjoys spending time with her best friend, her Cait, Ayla.[/i] [color=734e66]◈[/color] [color=3d5a88]H i s t o r y[/color] [i]Born to Rikard and Sarah. She is the only daughter, however, she is the youngest child, with her brother a few years older. They lived a very normal life. Rikard was well known for his power of Lightning that both his children had. However, Sarah didn't have any magic. But it didn't change anything as their family members were all special and were all equal. It wasn't until years later when Rikard and Sarah got divorced; they just didn't see each other as the marriage lost its spark. They tried to recapture the spark that they had, but it was unsuccessful. So they separated but kept in contact since they wanted to make it work, and it did. For her birthday, Beatrix got a pet cait that Rikard named Ayla, after one of his friends when he was younger. Sadly Sarah fell ill; Rikard, Beatrix, and her brother took care of her, hoping that she would get better. Months later, she died. After that, Beatrix would help around the house if needed, and it seems that Sarah's death hit Rikard the most as he went on multiple dates, flirting with women. At first, Beatrix couldn't understand, then thought maybe it was just him trying to cope. She'd often get embarrassed about it, but after a while, she got used to it. Her brother left home a year later in search of magical knowledge at an Academy. Then Beatrix applied for an Academy too, she was so nervous about it at first, but her father managed to coach her through it. [/i] [color=734e66]◈[/color] [color=3d5a88]R e p u t a t i o n[/color] [i]Beatrix used to be a little bit of a prankster, giving people static shocks as little jokes. Mostly as an attempt to fit in, but there was no need for her to do since a few people were curious about her and her magic. The only reputation that she has at the moment is that she's the hyperactive lightning rod whose father is a bit of a pervert. She did get bullied about not having a mother, but since she punched a boy in the face, the insults stopped. Now she listens to her teachers and often enjoys small conversations with some of the other students; hopefully, some will become her friend. [/i] [color=734e66]◈[/color] [color=3d5a88]G o a l s[/color] [i]Beatrix wants to be the best Lighting Element user, even better than her father. The only competition that she knows of is her brother so she wants to better than him, but he has a head start. This wont stop her from trying. She wants to have both her Father and her brother proud of her. After graduation she'll more likely travel some more, go on more adventures, maybe even write books on them, maybe evem publish them, so when she's older she can remember the good times she's had.[/i] [color=734e66]◈[/color] [color=3d5a88]R e l a t i o n s[/color] [i]Rikard Grye (Father) when he wasn't perving on women he was teaching her the basics on using her magic until she was able to learn more advanced things, so he managed to help get into a school that would help.

If Lightning magic is used against her, she can try to absorb some of it and apply to her own attack as a counter. Being able to use her element through her body she can move faster for a brief moment. Sometimes destruction isn't a thing so she can use low-level electrical magic to cause paralysis.[/i] [color=734e66]◈[/color] [color=3d5a88]L i m i t a t i o n s a n d W e a k n e s s e s[/color] She still takes damage from absorbing someone's Lightning attack. It takes a lot of focus, so she needs to be careful when using her abilities and her emotions can affect it so a level head is key to using it. Is a constant lighting rod in Thunderstorms it doesn't hurt her that much but can be fatal to people who are near her.

If someone wants to know how to play the flute or learn how to dance she'll happily teach you.[/i] [color=734e66]◈[/color] [color=b08cc9]H i s t o r y[/color] [i]Aurora never knew who her parents were. She was found by a group of performers. At first they weren't willing to look after her, mostly travelling around all the time. Always on the move was not suitable for a small child. Eventually they found out that Aurora didn't have anyone else, they felt bad plus mixed with Aurora's persistence, so they took her with them. So she travelled with them. Travelling around Aurora wanted to help them earn money by pulling her own weight. Unsure what they could have her do, they let her start off small with a Tambourine and a Flute. She'd spend days learning how to play them. She'd perform with the rest of the group while they danced, juggling as well as balancing acts. To Aurora, this group of 15 people were her life, her family. The woman who mostly looked after her, as well as gave her the lessons to play instruments, was the closest she had to a mother figure. Once older, Aurora started to learn how to dance. Learning to move to the rhythm, she was a bit clumsy at first but she picked it up. As she got older, she learnt most of what everyone else could do. Eventually she was helping with some acts as an extra. She loved every moment of it. She wasn't doing it for the fame she was making her family proud. While performing an act with another, they were juggling batons back and forth to one another. It was at this point out of nowhere, one of the batons exploded, injuring Aurora's fellow performer. This somehow caused a chain reaction as the other batons were now scattered in the sudden incident, also exploded. This caused mass panic with the audience, a few people were hurt but the other performer was the only one who was hurt the most. It seemed that after some discussion and investigation it turned out Aurora had magic and accidentally used her magic on the batons which caused them to explode. Now there was a division in the group, some wanted Aurora to leave while others wanted her to stay.[/i] [color=734e66]◈[/color] [color=b08cc9]R e p u t a t i o n[/color] [i]Aurora had to be careful at first, in case she blew something up hurting someone. She did have accidents here and there but gladly no one was hurt. She tried to keep herself away from the other students until she was able to control her magic. She made a few friends, but preferably kept her distance. To people meeting her for the first time wouldn't be sure on why but they found out eventually. She'd often play her flute while dancing around the school her old habit still there at her very core, she'd get applause for her performances which made her happy.[/i] [color=734e66]◈[/color] [color=b08cc9]G o a l s[/color] [i]She wants to make her family proud. Able to perform in big areas while mentioning her family so they'll have bigger crowds when they perform. Or get a stage that they don't need to travel everywhere, and are able to start a normal life settled down in one spot.[/i] [color=734e66]◈[/color] [color=b08cc9]R e l a t i o n s[/color] [i]The only family she's really had was the group of performers that raised her.

She prefers to charge smaller objects, like playing cards, as the time required to charge them is greatly reduced and they are much easier for her to throw.[/i] [color=734e66]◈[/color] [color=b08cc9]L i m i t a t i o n s a n d W e a k n e s s e s[/color] To apply more energy into an object requires more time to charge it. If she loses focus the object that is charged can detonate prematurely, it could hurt someone else. She can only pour her energy into inanimate objects, sadly it doesn't work against living things. She has to touch the object with her bare skin in order to charge it. Lastly objects can slowly start to lose their charge after a certain amount of time bigger objects lose their charge faster.
