Because it seems like using House colors is the more popular option, I went ahead and put together some possible color combinations that seem to fit a House with a name like Meadowmist.



Also, I figured it would be a good time to come up with a House symbol, so those will be included as well. The colors would be switched to be the house colors we end up deciding on, so keep that in mind as well.



Let me know what you guys think. :D

I think the second colour option and the second symbol design would look nice for Meadowmist! :D

Sorry for being silent the past few days everyone. Classes have gotten a bit more involved, so I was a bit more preoccupied than I would have liked. I have still been working on moving things along, however! So, I thought that I'd share my thoughts so far.

First of all, I think that it would be a good idea for everyone to communicate what their character would have done leading up to the class itself so that we maintain some consistency between our posts. While this isn't a huge deal, I figured that it might make it somewhat easier for people to post what their character was doing leading up to the class.

The way that I'm currently planning on structuring the class post is as follows:
  • Orientation
  • Lecture on the Fundamentals of Magic
  • Demonstration of Abilities

The orientation component will just consist of the Headmaster introducing themselves to the new students and the handing out of the student manual, which will contain all of the rules and regulations of the Guild. Then the mentor of the House will take over and teach the first class. This lecture will be focused largely on providing everyone with a basic academic understanding of magic, like how one can use magic and how the Schools of Magic are set up. Finally, the students will have the opportunity to demonstrate their current level of ability with their magic to their peers and mentors. While a fun and lighthearted event, this is also a way for the teachers to determine which students might need extra assistance outside of class. Once the class is entirely finished, the students will be able to head to the dining halls for dinner before retiring to their dormitory.

Also, I was thinking that it might be neat to do a bit of a collaboration with the actual lecture component of the class so that some students can ask questions and what not. If you think you might be interested in that, let me know and we can set something up. It won't be a full on collaboration, but it would provide you with the opportunity to interact at least a little during the lecture. I'm planning on having this post up by Saturday evening at the latest, so make to talk to me before that if you're interested.

As for house colors, I'm going to go ahead and go with the following combination:

I recommend Google docs for collabs. So you'd say there is a morning / afternoon class?

Yeah, that's it. The orientation and lecture component of the class will take place during the late morning so that students have time to get their uniforms and what not. After those are finished, the students will have an hour or so for lunch before heading to the practical component of the class.

Okay guys, I threw together a list of possible classes that the first year students can take. :D Everyone is required to take the core classes and at least one elective, though they may choose a second if they wish. For convenience sake, go ahead and fill out the Current Class skeleton and add it to your character sheet post (or the character sheet itself if you would prefer).





If you have any ideas for additional classes that your character might want to take, feel free to shoot me a message and let me know so that we can work something out!
