"Magic is both the host and the vessel. It is the reason why many beings exist and why many others die. Magic can create subjects of beauty and elegance with a simple snap but in contrast, can turn the most beautiful things to ash. This thing, this 'magic' is a balance that hangs in our being and if this balance tips it will definitely bring chaos to its host, infecting them, breaking them down to their darkest emotions until only... evil is left. "

"So you hide behind that wall of lies you've forged yourself. But remember you can never escape the unbalance infecting your pupils. "

"Mrs. Tohru? "

"Are the students ready? "

"Are they coming? "

Elizabeth was hushed by the cloaked woman, " They will soon. " She exhales with frustration afraid that the letters had been declined. Her eyes look towards the taller woman standing beside her in front of the mansion as she watches the yard with extreme intent. As Elizabeth examines her master closer she can notice the faint light escaping the mask her master wore, "Do not fret-- once they come we'll have a new batch to teach. Hopefully, prepare for the close future. "

"I-... I feel like we've deceived those children. "

"Probably most of them are here solely to learn the wonders of magic... "

"Not the vicious creatures that wait behind the facade the whole wizarding world has created! "

Her master sighed, "Elizabeth-- love. Magic in whole is a beautiful lie but we mustn't rely on this lie for so long. Our people-- the people who've created these wondrous schools have only hanged on the hope that we've managed to muster and that very hope has blinded most wizards and witches from these lies we've weaved but what happens when the lies break our facade? How will the wizarding world handle the outbreak? We can't do this alone-- so these groups of students will be the first warriors to send the message to warn the world of what is to come.. "

Elizabeth simply nodded, biting her lower lip watching the flower covered yard as they now wait for the students in silence. A worry forming within her head. Though that worry turned transparent once a bright light began to form in the yard.

"Welcome. "

Definitely interested in this. Will there be an overall plot or is it sandbox?

@Ambra

Absolutely! I left it a bit ambiguous in-universe, but OOC, I'd like to think of Akari as a Guardian Spirit. Semi-immortal beings, very benevolent, but not very powerful when it comes to the magical or physical realms. It might tie back to the age question by saying the spirits tend to pop in and out of existence at intervals, so they're not immortal either.

<Snipped quote by Avemelle>

I think I can make that work. Maybe a... more recent arrival to this plane/town. I'll adjust the age down to about 20.

<Snipped quote by Avemelle>

I'll make the necessary adjustments. If you want Akari to be hired on as a defender for the school, I'll absolutely be happy to make that happen! If you'd rather they were just another student, I can work with that as well.

@Aleranicus

Everything thing is fine-- but for now I'd recommend just being a student! ^^

It's from an old 'encyclopaedia arcana' addition to dnd.
It 'can' do a lot, quite versatile. But I know how to level play.
It will mostly be little energy bolts, small temporary creations and short dizzying teleportation.

Nothing OP ;)

@Dark Light

Alrighty ^^

Small Town of Wizards and Witches!

And I was JUST thinking about a slife-of-life too...

Reserving a spot is a bit much, isn't it?

@Verdaux

Sorry >.<

Small Town of Wizards and Witches!

I'll either start making the post right now! Or during the morning XD

@Dark Light

I'm sort of confused about your magic... do you mind putting more emphasis on it? It sounds sort of scary :< Like what your magic can do? Can it freeze things? Melt things? KILL PEOPLE?! Jk. But yeah-- if you just fix your magic you'll be accepted! ^^

Tachibana Shiori

Tachibana Shiori

Age: 22 (appears younger, more like 15 years old)
Race: Mostly human, although the remains of demon blood still run through her veins.
DOB: April 21st, 1994
Occupation: Student / Waitress

___________________

Background:
Many decades ago, near the smouldering end of the war between magical critters and those who were not magically gifted, a female human and male demon reconciled a little earlier than the rest, and started building up their lives together. Eventually a child was born: a demi-demon. Now, a couple of generations down the line, the demon-genes are still passed on, albeit to a (much) weaker extend. The newest addition to this lineage is Shiori, whose demonic traces only manifest themselves in the form of slightly pointier teeth and ears, as well as the supernatural ability to manipulate unconsciousness.

Despite her somewhat uncommon ancestry, she has lead quite the normal life so far. She was a bit of an outcast in primary school, but this was not due to her looks nor due to her giftedness; in fact she had not even realized her powers at this age. She was, and still is, simply always a bit caught in her own little bubble, wondering about the nature of things, or marveling over the minds of scientists.

Most would call her dreamy, but a more fitting word would be analytical: Shiori likes examining and dissecting situations, both social and scientific, but is more apt in the latter. She finds great pleasure in trying to solve puzzles, reading, listening to music: just about anything that stirs her imagination. She has a good spatial aptitude, and has found herself to be good at putting herself in someone else’s shoes. Even though one could say she is emphatic, most people find it hard to approach her because of her aloofness. Her absent-mindedness has also lead her to be clumsy at times.

Shiori may have the logic dexterity of a scholar, deep inside the girl is still a child. She loves collecting cute things and expresses this through keeping dainty stationery, small keychains, and sticking stickers whenever she finds the opportunity. Although she is usually eloquent, she likes squeezing in cute slang in her sentences every now and then.

Shiori’s parents had not gone unnoticed of their daughter’s abilities, both her cognitive and mystic skills. It was hard not to find out as they occasionally ended up being subject to her powers, albeit by accident. They have urged her to continue developing them by following more education in the fields Shiori is specialized in.

Almost as if by destiny she received a letter that she had been selected for a magic academy not much later. Knowing she had the support of her parents, she accepted the invitation. Shiori still has some doubts about her decision, but is looking forward to set foot on new terrain nonetheless.

Magic:
Dreams (and Sleep) - Shiori has the talent of controlling and manipulating dreams. Because her imaginative power is well developed, she is capable of creating surreal dream worlds that appear incredibly lifelike, as if the person experiencing the dream were awake. She does however not yet have full control over her powers, and needs to be unconscious herself to shape the dreams of her subject. If she manages to change the dream to a nightmare, her demonic nature will slowly start to kick in, and Shiori may lose control.

A master in this field has the potential of materializing themselves in dreams: actually being present in the other’s dreams and experience them. Besides dream control, they would also be able to have an influence on sleep: make their target fall asleep or feel fatigued.

Magical Equipment:
none

Hope you like my creation. :) Let me know if anything needs changing.

@Amaralyn

Accepted! ^^
