So will there be magic in this world, and if so, do you have a magic system in place, or will that be something you plan on hashing out as the rp comes closer to being started?
[/quote]    Yes, and I've got a system from a prior RP I worked on but I'm still working on it on my own time. But with that knowledge, the player characters won't have access to magic at the start of the roleplay even if their aspirations are to be come magus savant. The reason for this is plot related and also to deter some undesirable side effects. 100% exists though, and if your character were some Wizened Sage in his prior life, they'll likely be one of the first to stumble upon its use.

Also what kind of tone will you be going for in this rp?  I'm sure there'll be times where it'll lean into different areas, but overall will we be dealing with a typical shonene, slice of life, horror, mystery>  etc, etc?
[/quote]    School Life will be the primary focus at the start. Most of what I'm working on at the moment with NPCs and such is class/teachers/student body stuff, this is because the root of the plot will come through a lot better if those shounen/shoujo situations happen early and often. But as for the overarching genres it'll be transitioning from more grounded courses like Drama/Romance/SoL into darker ones down the line. But that's if we even get there.
