Sep. 14th, 2038 - Margaret Carter Institute[/b][/color][/h3][/center][hr]	Today was the day. 

	Today, the students of the Margaret Carter Institute would audition in front of selected faculty members. They could choose to demonstrate any skill, technique, or power - it was completely up to the students. The next day, they would have their results back - the critiques and comments, as well as what Contest of Champions team they would be placed on. 

	[color=AC3EFF]The Judges:[/color] [list][*][b]The Vision [/b]- A synthezoid constructs by Dr. Henry Pym with the assistance of Dr. Dominika Novikova, the Vision has served with the Avengers since his creation. His messy divorce from the Scarlet Witch continues to be the topic of gossip magazines, despite both parties insisting that they are happy as friends and coparenting their twin boys, Billy and Tommy Maximoff... [i]both of whom will be auditioning for a spot on the reigning winners, the Young Avengers[/i]. 


[*][b]Nimue, the Lady of the Lake [/b]- A newcomer to the Margaret Carter Institute, Nimue dates back to Arthurian legends. Not much is known about her, except that she is replacing Agatha Harkness as the resident sorceress of the Margaret Carter Institute. Her ward, Ser Megan of the House Pendragon, is also auditioning for a spot this year. 
[*][b]Ser Nemo[/b] - The other newcomer to the Margaret Carter Institute, Ser Nemo is taking over time travel studies, after the previous teacher lost their own life in a time paradox. There is similarly not much known about him, although his credentials are from his previous career as an agent of the Time Variance Authority. 
[*][b]Usagi[/b] - A creation of the High Evolutionary, Usagi is a genetically modified cat with the skills of a ninja and the alcohol tolerance of a giant. She teaches classes on combat at the Margaret Carter Institute and has done so since its founding. She is sometimes mistaken for Rocket Raccoon. [/list]
	Earlier that summer, a webform was sent out to all students. Students could request any number of environments, objects, weapons, scenarios, etc etc for their audition. With the resources of the Avengers, almost anything can be made available if needed. The auditions will occur in the school's gym, in the training room. This gigantic room is roughly the size of a football field and can have its floor easily swapped out for other materials, from sand to vibranium to cotton candy. For students with mental powers, Shiar golems have been generously donated by the Empress. These golems have a variety of 'factory settings' and can have their mind space viewed via a Stark Industries device, allowing the judges to see the effects of the power in real time. 

	Students audition in alphabetical order. In the morning, seniors audition for Vision and Nimue, and juniors audition for Ser Nemo and Usagi. In the afternoon, sophomores audition for Vision and Usagi, whereas freshmen audition for Ser Nemo and Nimue.[hr]	Okay everyone, OOC chat here - these auditions are somewhat like the ones in the Hunger Games. You go in, show your stuff, and the judges will make decisions about you based on your performance, yay! Obviously I already picked out the teams, so if your character does bad, it won't change their placement... but it might cause IC drama! 

	You have 14 days to post this round. Everyone's counters are reset. 

	You MUST ask for rolls for any use of powers, skills, abilities, etc etc in your post. You may NOT control the reaction of the judging panel. 

	Example audition ideas: [list][*]A luck manipulator ties themselves to a spinning wheel and has a machine throw knives at them. 
[*]A flyer navigates a difficult obstacle course 
[*]A healer heals a fatal wound on one of the Shiar Golems 
[*]A telepath forces a Shiar Golem to tapdance, and then psychic knifes it to the brain 
[*]A werewolf goes into a blind rage, destroying a bunch of training dummies 
[*]A teleporter teleports to various locations around the world and brings back souvenirs [/list]
	I will post Percy and April's audition at some point ideally in the next week. If you have multiple characters, it is fine to post for one character at a time. 

	Once you have posted your auditions, feel free to do collabs with people that take place at any point on Mon. Sept 13th (the Carnival) or Tue. Sept 14th (Auditions). 

	Any questions? Just ask![hr]	[i]It is your turn to audition. You step into training room A or training room B, depending on your assignment. The two judges are behind a rickety old table, clipboards in front of them and what must easily be a hundred manila folders. The lights shine brightly on you. You can see a bit of blood smeared on the western wall - clearly someone's audition earlier didn't go well. 

	"You can begin when you're ready," one of the judges says, smiling somewhat wearily at you. 

	Your heart thuds. 

	Your audition begins. [/i]
