[hider=The Gym Teacher][color=yellow][h1]Jordan Manilow[/h1][/color] Age: 42 Element: EARTH (Sand Specialization) Appearance: [hider=Appearance][img]http://senpai-knows.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/tatsumi1.png[/img][/hider] Personality: Jordan Manilow is a go-gettin' arse-kickin' sand-spittin' kind o' guy. He ain't afraid of gettin' grit in his teeth and puttin' his nose to the grindstone to do what needs doin'. In short, Mr. Manilow can be a hardass. But he's also the loudest, funniest, and most charismatic guy in the room, when he's not making you do laps. To call Mr. Manilow the quintessential coach figure does not do him justice, since he will insist he wrote the book that the quintessential coach reads every morning. So maybe he's full of himself, but he also can get right down to earth with his students when it's called for. The Headmaster himself has been at the business end of Mr. Manilow's pep talks, and let's just say that there's a reason why Mr. Manilow demands ultimate respect from his students whenever Kano makes an appearance. In four words, Mr. Manilow is; Enthusiastic - Probably too enthusiastic. Ask the kids lying on the ground puking their guts out. Still, he brings out the best in people. Crass - There's a no bad language policy in Mr. Manilow's class. The exception being Mr. Manilow himself of course. The female staff don't always find his sense of humour amusing. Mr. Manilow's reputation precedes him. Uncompromising - Once Mr. Manilow has his sights set on something, you'll do it, or die trying. Trust me, you'd rather die than fail to impress him. That said, failing may have been his intention all along. He's fair, but ruthless too. Attentive - Although he can be an uncompromising ass, Mr. Manilow is always watching for the wellbeing of his students, and he can tell when they're spent, or won't be able to do as he wishes. Years of observation have brought him a gift, and he is scarily observant at times. History: Mr. Manilow used to be a drill sergeant in the military. Before that, he used to be a special operations operative, performing highly classified missions. Needless to say, only Kano knows the full extent of his background. It's heavily implied that some kind of injury led to Mr. Manilow becoming a teacher at the Academy, although he has no visible injuries, which can be a source of gossip at times. However it is quite clear that Mr. Manilow has put his past behind him, and that he loves to teach the kids how to be fit, capable, active youth. He also gets a kick out of thrashing them with elementalism. Equipment: Mr. Manilow's signature teaching implement, is a [hider=willow rod][img]https://img0.etsystatic.com/180/0/11116220/il_fullxfull.1173473998_hb7h.jpg[/img][/hider], which he often threatens to use, rarely if ever actually employs. In actual fact, he uses it as his primary aid in both "dowsing", as well as for climbing, fighting, etc. Class Taught: Gym/Fitness/Martial Arts Note: Jordan is allergic to Almonds.[/hider] [hr] [hider=The Nurse] [color=purple][h1]Rosalin Tombs[/h1][/color] Age: 36 Element: Blood [hider=Appearance:][img]https://i.pinimg.com/736x/f0/0b/30/f00b304b4c4819f5e1384b1a11d388f1--monaco-nerdy.jpg[/img][/hider] Personality: Reserved - It's not really know exactly why Rosalin became a wallflower. There are theories. She tends to create convoluted dioramas in her bedroom laying out conspiracy theories you can almost believe but not quite. She's also been known to stalk people, especially if they have an interesting medical condition, and avoid their detection without any seeming outer limit. It's not that she's stealthy, but rather that she blends in so well with the environment that most people's gazes pass right over her. Morbid - There's enjoying good clean wholesome fun at a playground, and then there's being taken from kindergarten straight to a graveyard to dig up decomposing bodies because your father wants to teach you how to avoid freaking out around dead bodies. Maybe she was raised that way, or maybe she does it to screw with other people, but Rosalin will always be the first to crack a joke "too soon," or laugh at dead baby jokes. But she's not emo, or goth, or edgy. Rosalin just doesn't understand what's so intolerable about digging around in some entrails for a half-eaten hot dog, just to see how much time passed after they left the hot dog stand before they got run over. Protective - As a doctor, she views medicine as a giant game. She is super competitive, and hates to lose, but more than that, she believes that the best way to live her life is by serving others. Having fun is important too, but Rosalin hates it when people act useless or worthless. Optimistic - Despite her morbidity, fixations, and hyperactive imagination, she is unrelentingly positive. This is both a result of her father's teaching, and her personal realization that more good is done by seeking to be good, than is to be found dwelling on past mistakes you can't change. The lesson itself was a hard one to learn, but her temperament is as sunny as her hair. History: Born and raised at the Academy, Rosalin's abilities manifested relatively late, however the elemental side of her identity emerged later in her life anyway, as she spent her childhood helping her father who functioned as the Academy's undertaker. It wasn't so violent as that, but many alumni did live their entire lives on campus, or at the very least, sought to be buried on the sacred mountain, to be closer to the primal forces they'd wielded for so long. A childhood filled with happy, if occasionally gruesome experiences ended with her transitioning naturally to the Academy for her secondary education, and eventually elemental training as well. From there she finally left the mountain and got hired as a coroner for a local police station, eventually working her way up to an advisory position with the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Her career ended early, when she left the Bureau in disgrace after a badly botched case. She completed a medical degree and returned home, ready to help, but also because her father grew very ill. He eventually passed away, leaving Rosalin with next to no sense of where she would go from there. She tells herself she's happy at the Academy, and fools herself most days, but hers has been a life plagued with what-ifs. Equipment: Stethoscope, Spectacles, and a bow that doubles as a variety of different bandages in emergencies. [/hider]
