Fetzen@The One I'm still in. I'm just a bit stuck with my character right now. I'll try to get him up tonight, but I can't promise anything when I can't even come up with a decent name.

Leaving for a 9 day Geology Field Camp. I will be offline until I get back on the 28th, but I may not get to catching up with stuff I missed until the 29th. See y'all in a few days.

Going camping in the middle of nowhere to do geology stuff. I'll be back Sunday evening.

Going dark for a few days. I have a major project for Paleontology due Tuesday morning, and I'm nowhere near done with it, so I'll be away until I get that done. See y'all in a few days.

@Prosaic I doubt anything could be worse than rooming with a werewolf, especially at the full moon. I'd take a sickly water horse any day over a werewolf. Of course, since I'm playing a dragon (as soon as I get his cs finished), I'm not sure he'd even be affected by a werewolf bite. Still, a sickly water horse seems a lot less dangerous.
I will hopefully have posted by then. I'm busy right now, though, so I can't guarantee anything yet. I'm working on my post, though.
@Zelosse Thanks. Also, would students have weapons with them, or must they rely on their wits and their powers alone? Finally, just for reference, about how far into the term is this?
@Sedjwick Yep, one power.
Wait, do you mean elemental manipulation is one power, or each element is one power?
@Sedjwick Find the post starting the obstacle course. If you're aetherial, you'll be on the forest path.
Is that Phase Two, or is that earlier?
@EverI think The One will be deciding who rooms with whom. At least that's how I interpreted what she said in the characters tab.
@Zelosse Okay, so Milo's sheet is up on the characters tab, and I glanced at the last page of the IC tab, and it seems something big is going on with just about everyone, so any ideas how I should intro Milo?
Seth gave the brunette a small smile as he jogged alongside her, keeping an eye out for any other guards, taser at the ready should anything pop out at him. As they reached the other boy, Seth turned to him. "Um, what was that thing you did with those guards in the lab?" he asked still curious about what the boy had done and how he had done it despite the fact that this probably wasn't the best place to discuss that. Even as he spoke, he kept glancing around for any more people who meant them harm.

Name: Milo Stevens
Age: 14
Element: Aetherial
Appearance: Milo is small for his age, having not yet had his growth spurt. He currently measures 4'6" tall and has a lithe, slender build. His hair is fine and golden blond in color and hangs nearly to his shoulders, concealing his slightly pointed ears behind the unusually long tresses. His face is round and youthful with high cheekbones and only a few zits across the porceilain skin. His sapphire eyes are large and round, giving him an owlish, somewhat surprised appearance. His smile is nearly perpetual and often reveals two deep dimples on the sides of his face.
Personality: Milo is a ball of sunshine in all but the most extreme circumstances. He's not one to crack jokes, but he will find a bright side to most situations. His positive attitude makes friends easily and encourages his teammates. He is an extrovert, but only barely. He likes spending time with his friends and/or teammates, but also values his "me time" and personal space.
History: Milo was born in a small elementalist community far from the academy, but he had heard about the academy from his parents practically since the day he was born. Milo was born to a long line of elementalists of all elements, including darkness (though they often did their best to conceal their true powers due to the stigma attached to manipulating shadows), but Milo was the first to be gifted with the power of the Aetherial, being able to control all the elements. His powers first manifested on his tenth birthday when he not only blew out the ten candles on his birthday cake, but blew them over. A week later, it was clear that Milo was not merely a wind elementalist when he was stuck out in the rain waiting for his mom to pick him up after school and he never got the slightest bit wet. As the weeks went by, Milo slowly but surely displayed other talents with the other elements: he cut his finger by accident and it healed within minutes, the power went out one night and he glowed like a lantern for a moment, he even caused a lightning bolt drop out of a cloudless sky and strike the ground a foot from where he stood. With Milo being able to control so many elements, it was clear that his power was in the Aetherial, and his parents couldn't have been prouder.
Milo had a fairly ordinary childhood. He went to an ordinary school and took ordinary classes. When he was 6 he started taking gymnastics. With his small, light build, he was good at vaulting and tumbling, but he lacked the arm and shoulder strength for bars, rings or pommel horse, but this suited him fine since he was more interested in the vault and floor exercises anyway. To keep him limber and flexible, Milo's coach recommended Milo practice yoga and/or Tai Chi, which Milo did and continues to do to this day. He also continued with gymnastics throughout middle school and even competed regionally on his middle school's gymnastics team.
When Milo was 12 years old, he talked his parents into letting him take fencing lessons and he has begun to learn how to use a foil. He also picked up the habit of writing short stories and poems and has a fondness for writing by hand with a quill.
Equipment: Milo brought his blue yoga mat, a wooden Tai Chi sword, a foil, a few quills, a bottle of ink, and a small knife for keeping his quills properly sharpened.
