They've all come to know that, and somehow, that very fact all bound them all together.[/right] [center]Ongaku Academy is the most prestigious performing arts school in Japan. They've made millionaires, famous performers; they've made champions. They've created talented men and women for twenty-five years, but now, the school is accepting fresh new faces. Two best friends are accepted into the school after multiple times of trying to apply. They are shown to their dorms, given their class schedules, and that's that. But for the first time in Ongaku Academy history, one friend is determined to do what has never been done before at the Academy: start a band. In an Academy filled with classical performing arts students, ballet dancers, aspiring Picassos, the friend looks to defy all odds and break through tradition. All the while, the other friend doubtfully follows behind. The goal is simple: find three more students that don't sound [i]terrible[/i], are also willing to play, and are fairly attractive. Fighting the school board, personal home problems, a battle with rival students, and even romantic struggles, five students struggle to attain what they want most: to scream and shout and play music with passion and joy. It is the ultimate drug, after all. And so, the two friends go on a wild chase in search for these three people, unknowingly getting caught with the sheer pleasure of the Academy's wonders. It's just like any high school after all. Just more brutal and. . . beautiful.[/center] [right][u]The Super Very Important Rules:[/u] 1. I want 2-3 paragraphs a post for each character. 2. No God-Moding, perfect characters, attention-seekers, or outcasts. Yes, a character can be shy and withdrawn, but to have them constantly avoid the group will never let the roleplay progress. You can't expect the group to always come chasing after your character! 3. If you're going to be gone, let me know ahead of time. That, of course, doesn't apply if it's an emergency. 4. Character development. I can't stress this enough. 5. If I don't believe your character will add anything to the roleplay, I can reject it as I so please. If I believe you can't keep up with the group, you're gone. I'm not trying to be rude or a tyrant, but I have a low tolerance for ignorant people. >_<; Sorry. 6. Don't be shy to pitch ideas or little arcs! c: I'm very open to those. 7. If you want romance, let me know. A little romance never hurt! 8.

Go to the www.vocaroo.com 2. Click "Record" 3. Click "Allow" 4. Record your dialogue 5. Press "Stop Recording" when you are done recording. 6. If you are satisfied with your recording, scroll down and you'll see the words "Happy with this recording? Click to save > >" Click that. 7. You'll see "Sharing Options" and a link below it. Copy the link and paste it onto your post, preferably in a manner where your character's words are there, but if you click on the words, it takes you to the voice of your character that you recorded.
