I'm not victim blaming but all generalizations are false, even this one.

I personally like small RPs like this isso far and I at least can be on regularly save for special events like holidays.
@Aisling Indeed you were. Since both of you were pre-occupied with other things we decided to simply ignore the both of you until it became pertinent. Charlie was supposed to bunk with Wittywolf but he is bunkless because Wittywolf has been gone for a while. So in this case your character will simply be judged on the first part of your exam and we won't worry about the fight that was supposed to happen. In other words nothing you mere mortals need concern yourselves with.
Theology is studying the religious beliefs.

Natural theology is information based on facts and oberservations

Revealed Theology is based on revelations and works of faith.

The law of contradiction explains that a thing can not be both true and untrue at the same time, which is different from a paradox. It is a main part of the reasoning and deductive process involved in Scholasticism.

Scholasticism is a way type of thinking or belief, that logic is used to understand things, from normal interactions to religion. It primarly focuses on using reasoning and inference to solve problems.

The problem of evil is the difficulty in explain how evil exists with the presence of an all good and all powerful and knowing god. It is a key argument against religion and a source of much controversy.

Thomas Aquinas believes that love is an act of free will. God will eterenally love you but how you choose to react to that love is your own choice. You can return it with love or choose not to. Love is essentaily the prime virtue and should be sought at all times but it is your own choice to do so.

Five Ways.
The Argument from Motion: Everything is in motion and that motion is caused by something. We can link this motion backwards until we arrive at the first mover, who must be unmovable.

The Argument from Efficient Causes: Nothing can exsist prior to itself and everything is caused by something. Therefor there must be a first cause, or it would extend infinitly and nothing would exsist.

Argument from Possibility and Necessity: Every being is a contingent being and has a time and reason to exist. But this is not at all times, so there could be a time where nothing exsisted. But if there was nothing then, nothing could exsist after taht point. Therefore not every being is a contingent being, something must have created other beings and not recieved its own being.

Argument from Gradation of Being: Everything has Graduation some better or worse. There is a maximum of a thing, something is hotter, more close to hottest. The maximum of any one thing casuses all those things. There must be some maximum things taht has caused all other maximum things, god.

Argument from Design: Natural things are not random and most of them lack knowledge. Therefor they are directed by some thing. Therefor something directs all things, this is God.

Argument of Design is weakest. It begins with the assumption that all natural things are not random, when in fact they could be so. The intricacy or detail of a thing is not reason for it to not be random, it merely decreases the chances of it being so. Though you may deem it unlikely that all things are not random, it is still an inaccurate assumption to base the existence of a god upon, when all things could function without the god to direct them, merely through chance arriving at a purpose or goal.

The Traditional Juedo-Christian God generates the concept of God because it presents him as all good and all powerful, which would result in him eliminating all evil. Thomas approaches this by saying that God must create free moral agents, who he can't influence or they would not be free moral. Humans are naturally tended to become corrupted, a concept of original justice. Finally he says that the existence of evil is a mystery that humans can not understand. this approach seems weak to me as it does not solve the question, merely shoves the issue to faith.

Aristtole argues that happiness is a virtue obtained, something that is acquired throughout one's life. Happiness is a measure of how you lived your life, it can not be gained or lost in moments. The Hedonists argued that happiness was only momentary, that the moment was all that mattered. Do what gives you joy, nothing else matters. I think that Aristotle's idea is superior. The hedonist view resulsts in all those stoires about people who have everything but are not truely happy. The Aristotle view results in those that are poor and have nothing.
Oh dang it I'm sorry @olcharlieboi I forgot that wittywolf has been dead for a while..... FEAR NOT YOUR MIGHTY CO-GM WILL FIGURE SOMETHING OUT!

Herm, I'd be up for this, though my knowledge of this anime is negligible. Though I'm slightly reluctant to work on a character sheet if we couldn't start anyway. Would you be willing to play with just the three of us?
Bristle gave a sigh of exhaustion and lay on his back breathing heavily. This tired and they were in some sort of easy mode? Goodness he really was weak. At least the hard part was over, now they just had to sit and listen. As he lay on the ground and Zephyr introduced himself it occurred to him that it was likely no one knew his name either. He stuck one hand into the air weakly and said, "Bristle reporting in." and let it fall back to the ground. He wondered how much sleep they would get. A weird thing to think about since they'd apparently been out for months or something but he was defiantly ready for a nap. Or at least a game of chance, but all his toys had been taken away so that was out. Maybe someone would play tic-tac-toe with him. Most people thought it was a random game but it was really just a bit of memorization before you could win nearly every time.
Neven turned to Abelia somewhat amused, "Of course not, I'm referring to our kingdom of course. Owning a mere portion of this building would be disrespectful to ones of our standing." He said haughtily. "Until that's decided and we are summoned I suppose we are to do whatever we wish, which is fine by me." Neven then jumped on the bed and lay on the covers yawning briefly before closing his eyes. The ride over here on that pesky carriage had been exhausting, restraining himself from yelling at the driver every time they bounced up and down. Ah well, things would be set right soon.

Finished Examines

A voice emitted from a speaker in one of the corners of the room. "Your dorms have now been arranged and your schedules will be waiting for you when you arrive. When you exit this room you will find yourself in your dorm. Your rooms are as follows for future reference." For any who did leave them would find themselves in a hallway that lead forward for several feet with an opening on the left and right. Both led into very spacious rooms with beds, plenty of storage space, and even a fully equipped bathroom for each student. Further on the hallway led into a equally pleasant kitchen area with a fully stocked fridge, pantry, and other important cooking supplies. Hopefully one of the two denizens had a faint idea of how to cook.
Seems alright. The only thing I would bring up is that there are decks that don't use the extra or ritual summon so you would be excluding those. In addition it seems like there wouldn't be a lot of room for trick decks like burn, reverse burn, exodia draw, etc.
