Current You'd think after like 15 years I'd stop feeling like a fraud when writing posts but I still do which is both a statement on my self confidence and a compliment to how good my partners are as writers

Look, I got lost on the way to getting some jajangmyeon and it'd be foolish to leave now.

@Scarescrow The curriculum is different from a 'normal' curriculum by virtue of it being magical in nature. And the way it works in this universe is more like up until around fifth year, the core classes remain the same but you learn more advanced techniques. It's like going from Algebra to Algebra 2 only on a larger scale. It works the same way for the electives, so yes lower year students have more introductory courses while sticking with it advances up the ladder. This continues until reaching fifth year where students start focusing on more specific classes and with it more serious coursework.

It's not like a 'normal' thing where you take like one year of Gen Eds and then it's all good.
@Scarescrow Real talk I honestly didn't think anyone would play a first year since I always assume people would want to be cool magic types. While it's not stated in the character sheet (because of the whole "I made a bad assumption" thing), first years have an extra class in Flying so they have a different course load in that respect. If you're deadset on taking alchemy as a first year you can make a case for it and I'll likely okay it if it seems reasonable.
The OOC might not be up today but I come bearing the offering of a character sheet instead. It's simple. It's effective. It's open to modification from ya'll. Go nuts. Pretty it up all you like, make it cool, make it hot, make it whatever. It's a foundation and the house is your character. And the OOC is likely to be up before week's end.






Oh hey wat this



Helll yeh

They have already accepted one prodigy, so the precedent is already there. I would advise you not to design them as a surgeon for... personal reasons.


Why not, I could always use more people to boss around.
@Fabricant451 Can we make nijū the official word for "muggle"? If I have to read an Engrish "no-maj" equivalent, I may gouge chunks out of my computer screen.


That works as well as anything else in my eyes. Consider it official.
Since people are discussing house selection and stuff I figure I'll try and have the character sheet up tomorrow. But before that there's some information that might help people tweak their characters. Mahoutokoro students are given enchanted robes to indicate their skill at magic. First years will always have a pink robe but the colors change as a wizard grows. The colors themselves are not going to be bound by year (excepting first years, if anyone is making one). However, for anyone playing a student in their final year they could be what is called a Gold Robe. Think a prefect only for the eight students with the highest marks.

More information will be given in the OOC proper, of course, including the color options, but anyone wanting to be a Gold Robe student is required to be a seventh year. Since this is set in a Japanese school it will be using Japanese school schedules. Years 5-7 are essentially 'high school' while Years 2-4 are 'junior high' in terms of course load while first years would be like the end of elementary school and an introduction to the boarding school lifestyle.

On the topic of robe colors, no one will be allowed to have a white robe as there is a lore reason for it and also because those vaguely hinted at dark whispers might already have the market cornered.
