SAMPLE POST 

EARTH- THE MODERN DAY 

SEATTLE, WASHINGTON 

UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON, SCHOOL OF MEDICINE 

Like most days in Seattle, the weather is a mix of dark clouds and torrential downpour as the rain that descends seems to slam against the classroom lab windows in an angry fashion, sounding like a loud cracking with each connection. Ethan Miller stole a glance away from his pig cadaver that he and the class were dissecting and glanced at the window nearest him, most people were ignorant about it, but Ethan knew deep down that this was no ordinary rainstorm, some magician somewhere was having a bad day. The class instructor was droning on about the different anatomical parts of the pig, but Ethan had to struggle to listen through his noise cancelling headphones, he had to wear them or the overbearing sound of rushing blood in the student’s bodies standing around him would drive him nuts, but again he had to remind himself that this was the life he chose as a hemonancer. 

Closing his eyes in a grimace, he bent over against the metal table causing his lab partner, whom he didn’t know, to take notice and then slowly others started to stare until the instructor stopped the lesson and started towards him. Usually he could push through the loudness, usually he just had to focus on something else entirely, or escape the situation, but he had already used up too many excuses and was in danger of failing this class and his dream of being in the medical field, so now his choices were twofold. The first of which was to quiet the rushing, make the blood go still, but that would kill everybody, so he just had to push through it. 

Gritting his teeth he looked up to watch his instructor move towards him, but everything around him started to move so slow, it was like a crawl- he looked out the window and rain looked like little liquid comets slamming into the glass in slow motion, and then it all stopped and resting in his hand was a letter addressed to him in this very room in a peach colored envelope. “It can’t be,” Ethan spoke quietly as he opened the letter precariously and pulled out the parchment. 

Dear Ethan Miller, Congratulations you have been pre-approved for selection into The Clockmaster’s University For Magical Aptitude. Upon completion of reading this letter you shall be transported to a land beyond time and space known as The Immortal Hills. There you shall be joined by others with similar auras as yourself and go through our rigorous interview process before you are to be greeted by The Grandfather of Time, The Clockmaster himself Alus Arador. This is a boarding school, where you will learn and live and create a life for eight years in the Immortal Hills, but in reality only five minutes shall pass upon your transportation, and all educational materials will be provided for you. Once more, congratulations on your selection as only eight million people (or Maggies that normies call us) have any sort of magical aptitude. See you in a moment.  
 
Your Homeroom Teacher, Ms. Monik Maglon 

When he finished reading, Ethan looked up and watched in awe as the world around him started to melt away like an old oil painting only to be quickly replaced by sand beneath his feet, the sound of an ocean behind his back, a stone staircase leading up the hill facing in front of him, and above him the sky was nearly clear with but a few clouds. It felt warm and quite save for the ocean, and as he looked up, he looked in amazement at the yellow Sun and the blue Sun shining their light into the morning sky. In the next moment, he watched as other individuals blinked into existence.

Adrith Carter
 
Age: 20
Birthday: August 21st
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Pansexual
Relationship Status: Single
Work: College Student, Teacher Assistant, & Librarian
Affiliation: Arizona State University & Mac's Boxing Gym

Appearance

Standing at 6'1 and weighing 186 pounds Adrith has a muscular and lean frame. He has a cute/handsome face and a bright smile, yet has a body that looks like a chiseled sculpture. He has scars here and there, the most noticeable being a large scar across his back, on his right eyebrow, and on his left calf.

His left calf will often cramp and start becoming a pain, with the pain becoming much worst when it rains. Normally he will push through it, using mental training and willpower to be able to work through it. However, sometimes the pain is immense enough to make it debilitating and force him to be relegated to walk with a crutch or ane.

Personality

|Goofy| |Dogmatic| |Determined| |Naive| |Compassionate| |Self sacrificial|

Personality: Adrith a nice and genuine guy as he is quite Jovial and happy. He always tries to put a smile on others' faces and tries to help in any way he can as he loves to watch people be happy. He can't be described as a social butterfly, yet he can definitely work his way through conversations and can be charismatic when needed. But, he normally is just an average guy who is slightly goofy, as well as being a big and awkward nerd.

Powers

Magical Aptitude Scale: 2

Magical Aura: Internal Energy Control-

The user is able to create, manipulate, and control the internal energies within a system. Allowing the user to control the sum of the energy within the system the user is able to exert control over. 

This allows for a wide variety of effects, such as changing the shape of an object, the form of said object, adding energy within an object or system to strengthen it or destabilize it, or even to take the energy and redirect it. Allowing the user to change the flow of energy within a moving object and allowing the user to change the direction of the energies within to force the object to follow it. It can also allow the user to manipulate energies within a chemical reaction to either excite the energy within to make the chemical reaction happen faster, or manipulate the energies to stablise the chemical reaction to become inert. 

This power can even enact control over the human body to manipulate and control functions within and output through out. Allowing the user to turn of certain chemical signals by manipulating the energy within to release chemicals that can be enhanced to make the body much stronger, faster, and the user can even be able to manipulate energies that were to affect the user, such as a punch, to then spread the energy across a large area of the body to reduce the 'damage' it would deal.

Magical Powers: Adrith has be able to manipulate the energies within him at this point, which allows him to do great things, however he has yet to learn how to add energy into his own system to boost himself, nor has he learned to manipulate the energies of things around him.

Full Body Control-

This power gives him control over his body, may it be how much power his muscles put out, how the blood flows, or even what things about his body prioritize as essential. This gives Adrith a unique ability to selectively turn off certain senses such as the need to see color or feel pain. With this control and selectively turning off other functions, it allows Adrith to prioritizing other things he finds essential, like his kinetic vision or reaction speed. 

This skill gives him many neat uses such as the ability to increase his own healing speed by upping his metabolism, stop himself from bleeding out by controlling how the blood flows, and even increasing his power by bypassing his bodies natural inhibitors and using much more of his own strength. This can be a detriment to use constantly as he would then risk injury by breaking his own body by having his muscles go beyond what they are naturally meant to and break bones from the stress he can put them under.

However, doing any of this takes quite a bit of concentration, as it can often strain his mind when he tries to do too much all at once, so often times he will prioritize certain things like if he is bleeding, he won't try to control the muscles in the area because it would require greater control and concentration to make the blood flow to other placed while concentrating on the power output of his muscles, which would often divert his concentration in a fight. But once he prioritizes something like his kinetic vision over colors, it is a one-time thing that will stay until he goes and switches it back, oftentimes he can forget to do this based on how long he keeps it on.

His ability can be detected through 2 different methods, the first is through psychic energy, as his power is partially using his psychic energy to enact his will, and perform his feat. The second way is through a chemical screening/scanning, as when he uses his power, his body will oftentimes create different chemicals for his body to respond to, telling which muscles to do what and how hard, ignoring pain receptors in certain areas, how his blood will flow to certain areas, and many other things. If someone was to concoct a chemical that was able to counteract these chemicals, he would be unable to perform most of his abilities with his Full Body Control, leaving mostly the things he is able to do in his head, which would be changing his perception and eyesight, ignoring all feeling by turning off all his receptors, and lifting his restraint of his all of his muscles, but being unable to control them, so they would fire off at 100% power, which can easily break his bones.

Polyglot League- A club dedicated to those wishing to learn more languages, Adrith knows: German, Spanish, English, French, Tagalog, and Russian.

The smell of old paper and perfumed air fresheners hang in the air. The quiet shuffling of people, papers, and the solid thumps of books landing upon desks. It was a normal day within the library, Adrith Carter has lived in this monotony, and he was content. The smell of the hot summer desert snuck into the library every couple minutes when someone entered or exited the building. For Adrith, this was nostalgia, it was until a smell got to his nose that changed his entire demenor. His leg began to cramp as he turned towards his desk that faced the door most had to enter to enter the library. 3 individuals began to enter the building, Adrith knew them from scent alone, each of them were ones he knew well enough. 

Adrith kept cool, as the individuals entered they began to make their way to the front desk. The one leading the group was a man who stood well above most men, built like a brick, and looked like he could crush one too. The man's eyes landed onto Adrith as a dead-set staring contest began. The two looked to each other as if waiting for the other to make the first move. The air was tense, as for those who could sense the energy, a class of auras began. A low level clash, as neither budged until Adrith's demenor changed, "What can I help you with?". The man across from Adrith looked astonished, caught off guard as he noticed to his ight an older woman making her way over. "Where's the books on the war of 1812?"

The talk became cordial for a moment as both men let the other pass while who seemed to be the director of the university made their over to the desk. The woman then dropped a stack of papers in front of Adrith before she said, "I need these papers faxed to your director". Adrith gave a light nod as he said, "Of course ma'am". While Adrith stood up, he took the stack of papers while the director turned to begin talking to the other man in a much more happier and delighted fashion. To Adrith it made sense, among the 2 other them, it was night and day. He shook his head as he took a step away towards the printer, yet the moment he tried to press the button to power it on, the button wouldn't budge.

Adrith became confused until he realized, the world was quiet, Adrith turned to see all the people talking seems to be frozen, "What in the good lord?" Before Adrith was given a chance to investigate, he heard the sound of the printer break the silence. He was startled as he nearly jumped out of his own skin turning towards it. Seeing something is being printed out, a manila-colored envelope was being printed, with words being addressed directly towards him. Adrith lightly plucked the letter from the printer before inspecting it, he was confused, yet he took a deep breath, and then opened the letter, to see it says:

Dear Adrith Carter, Congratulations you have been pre-approved for selection into The Clockmaster’s University For Magical Aptitude. Upon completion of reading this letter you shall be transported to a land beyond time and space known as The Immortal Hills. There you shall be joined by others with similar auras as yourself and go through our rigorous interview process before you are to be greeted by The Grandfather of Time, The Clockmaster himself Alus Arador.

Once more, congratulations on your selection as only eight million people have any sort of magical aptitude. See you in a moment. 

Your Homeroom Teacher, Ms. Monik Maglon 

When he finished reading, Adrith began to hear waves crashing. The world around him washed away in the roar of waves, something that made Adrith's skin crawl. Something deep in his bones screamed out as he began to see dark waves began to crash away the world around him. Yet in this fearful moment, the glow of celestial objects lit a way to safety. A staircase made of solid and clean stone lead up to a hill, these held above it all, 2 celestial bodies, a sun of gold and one of blue. AS Adrith began to climb the stairs, he felt the waves wash away, leading to the brilliant land, and more, to those who began to appear just like him.

Bio

Name:
Nina Hughes 

Age:
19

Birthday:
October 12th

Aptitude:
2
Aura: 
Mental Enhancement
Magical Powers (*Note: All of these are temporary enhancements, of course. Personally, I find mental abilities to be tricky because they can easily be OP if not careful. Therefore, for all of these, I would say she can only perform them once a day (so if she’s, say, used Apathy, she may not use her other abilities without risking some drawback):

1.	Hyper-awareness- Nina develops the ability to notice everything going on around her. Drawback: Nina's hyper-awareness can lead to sensory overload and overwhelm her if used for too long in each moment, making it difficult for her to focus or function effectively for some time. 

2.	Empathy- Nina can fully understand the emotions and mental states of others. Drawback: Constantly experiencing and processing the emotions of others can lead to empathy fatigue, making it challenging for Nina to establish emotional boundaries and take care of her own needs. 

3.	Apathy- Nina can remain emotionless and detached, no matter the situation. Drawback: Nina's lack of emotional response might cause her to misinterpret or overlook the importance of certain situations or the emotional needs of others at the moment.

Magical Creatures Appreciation Club- A club dedicated to interacting with magical creatures in a safe manner and taking care of the few that are present in the school.

After the first time she’d read the letter, Nina had been seated in her usual spot: in the cozy study of her family’s home, surrounded by shelves of old books and trinkets collected over the generations. The flickering flames in the fireplace had cast a warm glow, illuminating the room as she held the apparent invitation in her trembling hands. Outside, the soft sound of rustling leaves and chirping crickets did nothing to soothe her despite the ambiance it created. If anything, it was an infuriating backdrop, a cruel reminder about the world she was about to leave behind. 

She’d been caught off guard in the most annoying way. 

No sooner had she finished reading the last line did she see the world around her dissipate, as if someone had taken a wand and turned everything into smoke. She’d been initially disoriented, the haze only clearing as her eyes came to adjust to the suddenly bright colours around her.  You’d think they would put a warning before opening the envelope that you wouldn’t be able to say goodbye to your loved ones…but no, she complained to herself sullenly, glowering at the now blue sky above her as it if were to blame for unceremoniously dumping her into this new world. The sand beneath her feet did not make things better either, invading her delicate bunny slippers and causing her to squirm with each step she took toward the newly formed stairs before her.
 
Really, none of this should have been a surprise to her. It was only recently that she’d found herself with abilities that none of her classmates could perform, at least as far as she knew. After all, it was not the norm that she could just know-just feel- what they happened to be thinking at a particular time. The dread for an upcoming exam; the excitement bubbling up the closer they got to the end of class; the hidden sadness lingering behind a few of their smiles. 

Her abilities already felt like they were far too much. 

As the unfamiliar voices and vibrant energies mingled around her, she felt a surge of vulnerability. Nina instinctively crossed her arms, as if seeking solace and protection within herself. The oversized t-shirt she wore, once a comforting garment, now served as a shield against the unknown faces around her. Summoning whatever courage she could, she took a tentative step forward, reminding herself that at least she was not going to be alone on this new journey.

Name:
Angela "Angel" Thomas

Age:
21

Birthday:
June 2nd

Aptitude:
3
Aura: 
Gilded Tongue
    * Powers 
	- Charmed Speak: Like the name this ability allows her to sweet talk others into doing what she wants or what she needs them too making it easier for things to go in whichever direction she wants it. Those with strong enough mental fortitude can easily break out of it once they notice they're under its effects. Easily influenced by her emotional state, there have been times when Angel is riled up that she has unintentionally charmed people and had to deal with the various consequences afterwards.
	- Barbed Words: The idiom words hurt never rang more true. This ability turns her words into psychic damage, the harsher the tone and the more anger behind them the more mental shock they can cause to the other person. Several people who have crossed her path on a bad day have found themselves curled up on the ground after the berating they received from her. She often finds herself drained, mentally fatigued and needing a nap. All of her mental energy having gone out of her in weaponized words.
	- Sonic Scream: Instead of her words being imbued with energy she focuses it all into her voice, each of her yells ladened with enough power to send them staggering backwards and those close enough end up dizzy and disoriented. A fairly new power she recently discovered, it leaves her without a voice for a day or two after its usage and her throat feels like its on fire every time she breathes so its often a last resort cost if she cant take her way out of it.

Clubs:
-Student Council
-Choir

The halls were filled with chatter and laughter as the group of girls made their way through, a plethora of shopping bags tucked neatly into the crook of her arm; it was her 21st birthday and her friends insisted on taking her out shopping to celebrate before heading out for a grand night on the town. A small blessing that her birthday always coincided with summer holidays, there was never a need to plan around the school schedules and night classes that made it so hard for the group of friends to get together. 

“So Angie, where are we going first? Are we inviting the boys?” 

“I hope so! They always pay when she’s around, remember that one time they all fought over who would get the bill.” 

Angel cringed both at the nickname she had desperately tried to discard and at her friends awe of being able to sweet talk her way into someone else’s wallet. 

“It’s not that impressive.” 

A poor attempt to brush it off, the slight grin on her face betraying the demure nature of her protests as she pushed past them, the jingling of keys heard as the apartment door unlocked and the four of them filtered their way into her small studio apartment.  Ruth and Beth easily flopping down on to the couch, a shared comfortability existing between the trio as they continued talking about getting ready for tonight’s party. 

After all you only turn 21 once. 

——

The thrum of the bass and the flashing neon strobes breathed life into the club. The throng of people pulsed and moved to the music as if one large being. Nestled neatly on a stool by the bar Angela watched as her friends motioned for her to join them in the crowd, to get lost in the rhythm of the night. A tipsy giggle escaped her lip as she waved at them before motion the bar as to signal she was waiting for their drinks. Her red curls held back by shinny charms and a few hidden bobby-pins fought against their constraints as she turned her head to look back to the bartender. His deft hands and fluid motions formed their own dance, a swift wink from the man saw her blush and turn away quickly embarrassed she got caught staring as she looked down at her hands. 

“What’s a pretty thing like you doing by yourself?” 

The smell of alcohol hit her even in this setting as she looked up to see an older man had pushed his way too close to her, a leery grin on his face as he continued to talk motioning toward her birthday pin. 

“Oh it’s your 21st! Happy birthday! Surely you’ll let me buy you a drink. You won’t be rude and say no? It’s a celebration after all!” 

“She’s good thanks.” 

Angel breathed a sigh of relief, the tension in her body lessening a young man around her she placed a comforting arm around her spinning her slightly so he was between her and the old man. A sneer crossed the drunk face, muttering something about kids not knowing their manners. 

The following conversation was lost on her as the thumping of the bass and her own heartbeat flooded her ears, vaguely aware that everyone else had made their way over to her and the they had soon started to draw attention to themselves as the old man started to yell louder and Eric looked like he wanted to punch the man but held back not wanting to ruin her birthday. 

Hushed murmurs and whispers from onlookers as the scene grew feed into the gnawing feeling in her chest. 

“EVERYONE STOP!”

Her yell came out in a surprise, laced with enough magic for everyone around her to activate stop startled. Panicked she looked around not sure what she just did as the bartender placed a drink on the counter in front of her. 

“Nicely done.”

The soft click seemed to stop time completely in place as he walked off leaving only the glass and a letter next to it. Shaking hands reached out quickly downing the drink before she settled on the letter. The alcohol and adrenaline making the words a blur only understand something about magic and a homeroom teacher before the room spun and she was gone. 

—-

The crashing wave hit her violently waking her from her drunken state as she quickly scrambled to get off of the shore, bewildered as she looked around the memory of the letter coming back to her. 

A magic school. 

She would’ve have laughed if she hadn’t woken up in a strange place with a set of stairs leading into the sky. The tell tale signs of a hangover tugged at her mind but it was dwarfed by the sheer awe and confusion as she made her way to the stairs. 

There was no way but forward after all.



Name:
Mariah Noel Lawernce
Age:
20
Birthday:
December 24th
Aptitude:
2
Aura: 
Photographic Mimicry
Powers:
With the ability to copy any move she sees Noel's condition and her own compatibilty heavily effect the profiency in which she preforms the move. The longer she is exposed to other peoples movents and combat styles the easier it is for her to pick it up and make it into her own.
   - Quick Copy; As the name suggests she can take a small part of the move and copy it instantly with little thought though the power behind it is sacrificed for speed. This works better in defensive situations where the ability to react is keen to survival.
- Full Copy: This one takes more time and effort and cocentration on her part, but shes able to become almost a clone of someone and their style. The high power level the target the more it demands of her own skills and physical capabilites, if she tries to copy about her own level it runs the risk of causing irreversible damage.
(Tentative power, might switch to electric manipulation.)

The sound of wheels on concrete was her favorite, her left leg pushing off the ground to propel the skateboard forward as she coasted around the  skate park. Music could be heard from the headphones around her neck as she went by. 

It was a small park, it had a couple grid rails and a half pipe that had scene better days covered in graffiti but the inhabitants of the park didn’t seem to mind. A couple sat up top the pipe, dangling their feet over the edge tucked together watching a video. A girl on roller blades was practicing skating backwards, and had already taken a fall or two. A few younger kids were trying to learn a kick flip eagerly sharing one board and arguing over who would go next. A cocky grin crossed Noel’s face as she boarded past them hitting that same kick flip into a grind down the rail, the little gasp of awe and praise boosting her ego as she waved at them. 

The early hours were quieter than the overpacked crowds of the afternoon, it gave her time to enjoy the morning and the tiny feeling of flying if she got enough speed up. The music in her ears changed to an alarm sound causing her to pull her phone out to mute it. With a small sigh she hope off the board picking it as she headed toward the entry gate. The oldest of four it was her job to get the youngest one to daycare before she went into her part time job at the coffee shop. The wheels quickly returned to the asphalt as she fully put on her headphones, weaving her way back home.

“No-no, do that one move like the red ranger does! Where he goes Hyah!” She tried not to laugh as the three year old feel down in a poor attempt at a jump kick. Watching as he eagerly got up brushing himself off looking up at her expectantly with wide eyes on the walk to the daycare. “C’mon, you’re gonna be late and then I’m going to be late…again.” She teased wiping a few more grass clippings off his shirt before he quickly started to run ahead.  Shaking her head she caught up quickly grabbing his hand, “You know the rules Alex, we have to hold hands when walking down the street. You’re too cute someone would definitely snatch you up.” Grinning she did just that before tickling the boy, tiny shrieks of glee escaping him as he tried to wiggle free yelling for her to stop it as he clung to her. Thankfully the daycare wasn’t far and his teacher was waiting outside to welcome all the kids in. A few of them saw her and called out wanting to run up to her before the teacher chided them to go inside turning to look at the approaching duo. 

“You really should just get a job here, the kids love you after all.” The woman smiled as Alex was put down and ran to hug her leg. “Save me Ms. Carmine! She gonna get me again!” Alex said hiding behind his teacher. “That’s right so you better behave mister or I’ll know.” Noel winked at the other woman before waving good by turning to head toward the small cafe not even a block away. It was a good location and the owner was understanding on days she had to leave to pick him up early. Even though her parents said she didn’t need to work and should go to college instead she knew how expensive having five kids was so she opted to get a job instead to have her own money and lessen the burden on them. A floating letter caught her eye as she walked, it seemed to be carried on the wind but there wasn’t a breeze around, curious as if almost drawn to it she reached out to it eyes widening as it floated down into her hand. The wax seal seemed to glow and the paper looked old, flipping it over she almost dropped it seeing that it was addressed to her by name. Shaking but as if egged on by some mysterious force she opened it pulling out its contents.

And the world started to shift, Her last thought was that her parents got their wish of her going to school. Like a black hole everything started to spiral around her pulling her in and just as quick the vortex seemed to spit her out stumbling onto white sands. A few scattered steps forward and she caught herself before looking around noticing a few others had been unceremoniously dumped on the shore as well. The eye catching stairs drew everyone attention, and she was no exception that same unknown force pushing her toward them.
