Hi there...so I think about two months ago I started (well, we actually never started) an RP called the **Northwood Academy of Excellence**. It gathered quite a few people but at some point I stopped coming onto this site due to a lot of school-related stress and issues with finding a place to live with one of my friends for university next year. I really didn't give much of a notice that I was pretty much dead to this website so I was never able to discontinue it or pass the ownership down to anyone else. However, all my issues of the past have been seemingly resolved (for now and hopefully for a long time) and I would LOVE to start it back up! I'm not sure if anyone from the original OOC will remember this or want to join but hopefully I can garner some interest again!

Lenora Géroux welcomes you to Northwood Academy.
At this advanced preparatory school you will find boys and girls all with the same goal: to succeed. If accepted into the school, then congratulations because that must mean you are an intelligent and talented individual. Although the school only accepts students 14 to 19 years old almost all of the students that attend the academy go on to further their education at Ivy League and prestigious universities.
Well, except for the students who seem to disappear every year…
Located deep within a forest just outside of the smaller town of Courts Place in Maine, Northwood is surrounded by beautiful scenery. Only five miles west is Lake Mauve where students often go to canoe or swim in their free time. When winter hits, it’s perfect for ice skating! The lake is highly monitored during the day due to a few instances over the years of students going underwater and never resurfacing.
Although Northwood was built in 1856 the building and dorms have been renovated several times in the past to keep the facilities new and fresh. The school is rich with history, and produces some of the finest education in the country. Northwood has high academic standards and has policies students are required and expected to follow. Any students who fail to follow Northwood’s rules and policies are put on immediate academic suspension. However, it still encourages social and creative behavior amongst students and faculty.

The year is 1972, and beneath the glamor and prestige of the Northwood Academy lies a dark secret. Only the dean, Madame Géroux is aware of the special students that are scouted out each year to come to the academy. These students, although unaware of each other, have a supernatural aspect to them that appeals to what she is looking for. But each year, these “special” students continue to disappear and the school continues to thrive without consequence. At the beginning of the school year, there is a wariness that lingers amongst the older students. The previous year ended with a gruesome event that shocked the whole school: Helen Schwartz, a beloved student and popular girl disappeared in the middle of year. At the end of the last semester, her body was found by the lake with mysterious symbols etched into her skin. There were no suspects. This year, many are becoming more suspicious of the school’s disturbing history of student disappearances. And Madame Géroux seems to be the center of it all.

So that was the original plot I came up. Hopefully old characters and new characters will want to join! If you have any suggestions to improve this RP, just let me know and maybe I can tweak it a bit!
