Venture Academy - School Grounds
Interactions - None


Students came and went at their leisure, as one would say. They were responsible for their own development, a sense of maturity placed upon children of an early age. This was, as could have been expected, often case a starting point of debates and discussion. Should children be given the freedom to shape their own education? A heavy responsibility, indeed. However, with the mantle of heroics at their backs, the students of Venture Academy did not quite fall under the same jurisdiction as those within the public school system.

Neoh, though a single coin in the pond, reasoned that it offered him a desire to attend class, more so than when he was younger. The days where his presence was a forced addition behind that desk. Then, considering the nature of Venture Academy, he would be forgiven for the all too casual reaction to yet another student's entrance into the classroom.

However, the scenario did not fall under a more general application. A young man had fallen through the ceiling, undoubtedly the start of a creepypasta, had fingers been present upon a keyboard. Unable to stifle the chuckle escaping his lips, Neoh noted the startled reaction of more than a few. Lime's attention was peaked, naturally, the ferret's ears standing erect and attentive. "How nice of you to join us, Mr. Anderson." Came the teacher's voice, as she paused the development of class. "Use the door next time, yes?" She finished, before proceeding with the curriculum.

Yes, Neoh had come across this young man, before. Kane, if the boy recalled. Laid back, relaxed and with little consideration for a day's less pleasant scenarios, he was what one would be right to expect from a young man of twenty winters. Of course, like any student at the academy, his powers were an aspect many would be interested in unearthing. They would, however, have that curiosity sated at the sight of his arrival.

A specialized operative, one might say. Neoh was more or less informed of his classmates' abilities, and of their exploits. This was, after all, the main talking point of any student. Missions were the absolute focus, both in interest and conversation, without fail. One would surely be deprived of ears if rumors and gossip passed, leaving nothing behind.

Neoh was not exempt from this. Missions were oftentimes a vast source of exchange between himself and Miles, or rather, Milly. This served a purpose, of course. Neoh and Miles and were primary team mates. They fought as one, these brothers, the relentless spear and the unyielding shield. Javelin and Barrier. They had been dubbed The Nova Brothers, which was a title they decided to maintain.

They were not above resorting to this theme at costume parties, which, despite expression, Neoh quite enjoyed. Though, dressing to reflect one's powers was a commodity at Venture. Crimes thwarted at the day of Halloween were colorful, to say the least. Neoh could still point towards last year, when an emergency forced him onto the field, still dressed as a dog. An animal theme sounded good beforehand, but reached a point of laughter in more ways than one.

Shifting his attention back to the single most impressive feature of his reportire, vacant of a battle zone, Neoh continued working on a picture he had been drawing. It was an outfit, something a tad more flamboyant than what he and his brother wore. Something which borrowed elements from the mystical desert with a decorated vest and silken sash. This was merely one of the countless outfits Neoh had been working on.

He decided on something simple for one reason alone. He could not make up his mind. It was, however, never a bad idea to work on more aspirations.

Armor was far too heavy for him, and tactical gear was too boring. He wanted to find something more akin to his powers, flashy but straight forward. Mystical and dangerous.

Tapping his pen against the page of his sketchbook, Neoh occasionally looked toward the teacher, only halfway regarding her, before smirking at his brother for nearly dozing off. It was no particular individual's fault, make no mistake. They had enjoyed a far too engaging game of Dungeons and Dragons, so, who could possibly blame the brothers?

Indeed, roleplaying. An activity heroes of Venture enjoyed, like any other teenager with the interest. Even though they had been blessed with the very powers displayed upon game boards, in rule books or character sheets, few disregarded the prospect of imagination. The pursuit of something fantastical, in the safety of one's own mind.

It was quite entertaining, however, to compare heroes to what had been offered on the pages of this material. If Neoh found himself in a roleplaying game, what would he be? A wizard? Yes, perhaps. Would Miles follow the same route? They were very alike in abilities, after all, but polar opposites, all the same. Would Kane, who had made his entrance known only recently, fall under the category of a Rouge? It was a playful notion, to be sure. One which occupied Neoh's mind occasionally.

Depends on when you decide to post your character in the character tab.

Welcome. The chat is available to you, if you'd like to talk with all the degenerates, here.

It was good, and entertaining. I'll make sure to react to your reply in my next post.

Tapping his fingers against the wooden surface of Neoh's desk, the boy's attention maintained focus on a passing summer breeze, beyond a large, reflective window. Black eyes met the rattling of branches and leaves in response to nature's breath, the teenager's slender digits carefully caressing his beloved pet.

Neoh could still recall how he came across Lemon, the blonde colored ferret refusing to leave its owner's side. Since before the academy brought Neoh and his brother into its embrace, the child found great comfort amidst the warmth of feral beasts. A bleeding heart went out to them, their innocence and primal purity a sense of perfection in itself. He was never able to ignore their plight, and would consistently take steps required to aid those of lesser fortune, who crossed his path.

Lemon was one of these unfortunate souls, a furred tree dweller calling Venture Island its home. It was by the virtue of coincidence that Neoh came across the ferret, wounded and abused. Another student was first to the scene, their presence forcing a most heated scenario. Onlookers would note that the student in question was making himself known as a nuisance towards unfortunate animal.

Neoh faced exile, nearly finding himself expelled after confronting the culprit. It was clearly branded in stone, from that day, that Neoh's temper was a dangerous furnace. His salvation came in the form of an accepted duel, regulations shielding him from ultimate punishment.

Following the battle, Neoh left his fellow student barely clinging to a thread of life. It earned the young soldier a reputation among others, indeed. For Neoh, however, this was an irrelevant side effect. He spent weeks nursing the ferret back to health, earning the creature's trust and love.

Unlike his brother Miles, Neoh was an unforgiving zealot shackled to his beliefs, and ideals. He would not shy away from anger, but rather embraced it as the hero he was known. Javelin, the relentless spear. Truly, the relaxed, laid back and even serene persona displayed for others to view was easily dispelled, in response to unwarranted cruelty.

That ferret on his shoulder was not only an endearing sight, but a reminder. A statement. Where Neoh's sweet if moody state was prevelant, it could easily shift and sway.

Turning his head back to the teacher, Neoh exhaled a tired sigh. The lesson would soon be over, and he could indulge in a long awaited lunch. 

Some assumed Neoh's stance on nourishment, but he was in fact not opposed to eating meat. It was the circle of life, undeniable to all. He even enjoyed hunting, and had done so in the past, when time allowed. Students of Venture Academy were taught to survive, after all, which included hunting and sleeping under the stars. Not every mission took place on an urban battlefield.

Smut is not allowed on RPG, irrelevant of what individual RPers think. No matter the age of characters or RP setting, smut is never allowed in a public RP, based on the overlaying rules of Roleplayer Guild.

I ticked the 18+ box because of darker themes, blood, gore, drugs, violence, whatever. Everything except smut.

If you see an RP on here which includes smut, it's breaking RPG's rules, so you don't need to think that 18+ involves smut on a general basis. It never does.

I removed the category in either event, since you were confused by it.
