Academy Solo Write!

-

As your parental figure calls you down, you raise your eyebrows in surprise. You then quickly hop out of your chair that is pulled up to a desk and quickly exit your room, bounding down the stairs to see what is happening and what is going on.

You then question your parental figure, asking what they’re calling you down for.

They reply with a short, simple answer, explaining that a letter in the mail had been addressed to you. You simply tilt your head in confusion and your parent slides the letter into your hand with a small smile. 

You eye the letter in confusion and end up going back to your room, sitting at the desk again and examining the letter. The outside has nothing but a nicely written statement that claims that it is for you. You turn the letter over and open the neatly done floral wax seal, pulling the two pieces of parchment out of the envelope.

Greetings, Future Pupil!

I hope this letter finds you in good health. We have the magnificent opportunity to invite you to our school. The school is simply named Lone Oak Academy, or LOA for short.

You then push the introductory page aside and find the form. You hastily dip a quill in an ink barrel and sign the enrollment form.

Once you finish writing everything out, the letter bursts into flames and turns into ashes. The ashes are then swept away and they scatter, exiting through an open window you have in your room.

Hello! The name I’m going under is just an alias. I might not be the most guessable CBer on here, but here I am. Starting up a solo write.

Disclaimer I: I cannot guarantee that I will be 100 percent on here all the time and writing because I procrastinate a lot. I also write in the past tense. ALSO! Please specify to the best of your abilities. You don’t need to specify certain shades of colors, but go in depth with explaining the personality and more. 

Now that that is over, thank you for reading and if you partake in this solo write. I hope this will live up to your expectations. I accept 15 main characters at the max (I will add more if there is more characers than intended), but if anyone would like to partake later, you may join. You will just have to specify a lot more. The maximum to adding main characters is two (2). You may take a companion with those two main characters. I will inform people if they have more than two main character submissions.

Whoo, this is long. If you didn’t see anything within the beginning parts, I will accept anyone of any gender and any pronouns, either neopronouns or any other pronouns. Just specify.

Disclaimer II: I might be needing some teachers. You may simply put the main character sheet as the teacher, just with less specification. (This post is already long, I apologise.) I will post Sol’s form after this is posted.

Oh wow, this looks cool! Don't mind me going into detail-

Name (First and last, please): Aster Sirius Polaris (Former name is Ashley. Details come later in the form.)

Age (14-18 for students): 17

Gender and Pronouns: Non-binary, they/them.

Appearance: They have carrot orange hair with really long bangs. They have extremely pale skin and a lot of freckles scattered all over their body. They have heterochromia, one eye being an olive green, and the other a taupe color. They wear rectangular gold framed glasses that have thin glasses chains with colorful gems on them. (Kind of looks like those librarian glasses, but like a lot more fancier?) They like to layer their clothing a lot, and their iconic look is a thin, long-sleeved black turtle neck, a white polo shirt with the collar over a cream colored sweater, and on top of that, a lightwieght light gray cardigan. They wear black pants with black and white sneakers. This is important! They wear eye contacts (for seeing purposes) and covers up their eyes with their long bangs. They're pretty self-conscious about their eyes. They also carry colored eye contacts that are a taupe color so they can wear their glasses.

Personality: They're quite outgoing and loud. They're extremely extroverted and love people. They love chaos and creating it. They're always that one person who always has the latest gossip of the school. They almost can never stay still. They loves teasing people, but if they're in a relationship, they tends to keep the teasing to a minimum with other people, but definitely loves teasing their significant other. They're super sappy with a significant other.

Any Allergies?: Cats.

Magic Ability (You may not use time-travelling, mind-reading, future-telling, mind-control, or anything of the such. You may use teleportation, speed, controlling of certain elements, telekinesis, flying, et cetera. There can be repeats.): They have kind of a ghost.. thing? It's kind of like they can relatively float and walk through walls and stuff.

Backstory (Make it as detailed as you would like. Put N/A if there is nothing you would like to add): They grew up with a mother that really didn't support them, and always deadnamed them. They were born a female, but quickly leanred that they weren't comfortable in their body and they figured out they were non-binary, although their mother didn't really like that. They got more outgoing and stuff in middle school, spending time with their friends.

Luggage (You may bring as much as you need, but list it from most important to least important): Their phone, laptop, earbuds, multiple sweaters and cardigans, a binder (assigned female at birth), eye contacts, etc.

Would you like to ship your character? (Please ask other CBers if you'd like to ship your character with theirs. Please specify preferred genders): Sure, sure!! They'd love a partner! They're biromantic, but feels no attraction to females. They prefer someone older than them! They also really want someone to tease and stuff, and the person has to put up with all their sappy stuff. 

Anything I should know of? (Anything important to the character, such as likes or certain classes you'd like them to attend?): They're always cold (as in temperature) and loves breaking the rules. They live life on the edge, basically. They also really love astronomy and will most likely talk about it all the time.

Dorming with another person? (Ask other CBers again): Sure! Someone might get fed up with them, but if they're willing to take the risk, then sure!

Introductory? (Would you like a specific thing to happen when meeting your character? Or in a certain place? Put N/A if you don't mind): They're probably going to be found walking through walls and talking to people. Their introduction to the class is probably extremely loud and ecstatic. They could also be found talking about astromony to someone, probably explaining some sort of moon or something.

Other: Nothing!

And for Aster's companion! 

Name (First and last, please, unless if it is an animal): Cassiopeia

Age: 15 in human years, but actually 12 months old in cat years.

Gender and Pronouns: Female, she/her.

Breed and Species (Mark N/A if it is a human sibling. You may bring elves or anything of the such): She's a Siberian cat! (Meaning that she's hypoallergenic.)

Appearance: She's extremely fluffy and is mainly white with brown details. She has green eyes and usually has large pupils. She wears a small collar around her neck containing Aster's information if she walks off somewhere.

Personality: She's really outgoing and loves chaos. She will eat anyone's houseplants. She's vocal in the day, but quiet at night. She's a very affectionate cat.

How does this relate to the pupil?: Cassiopeia is Aster's cat. She's kind of their backbone in a way because they can get pretty lonely. They're like an emotional support cat?

Other: Nope, nothing, but I'm really really excited!

I have no time to proofread this, but if something is really confusing, just ask!!

By proofreading this after like an hour, I realized I did mess up on some stuff, but it's not too confusing.. hopefully.

I think I also forgot like height? Aster is pretty short for their age. They're also pretty scrawny. I also forgot that I wanted to add that Aster partakes in an astronomy class if there is one. They get relatively good grades, considering how rule-breaking they are. I think that's all I forgot?

(June 21, 2021 - 9:57 pm)

Look at me being indecisive.

Um.. do you mind if I change a few things? I actually don't want Aster to be kind of teasing and stuff. I still like the rest of the character, but I don't really like the idea of them being a teasing sort of person? They're still a rule-breaker and stuff, but just without all the teasing? They're still really sappy and romantic and stuff.

Also a small change to the relationship part, which is just cutting out the teasing of the relationship. 

Everything else is perfect, though!! 

It's okay if you don't want them to change and stuff if you already have a full plot and everything already planned out! If I'm allowed to change it, I can just remake Aster's form so it wouldn't be too confusing?

Sorry!! >-<

I don't mind changing the character. Thankfully, I do not have a fully fleshed out plot yet because people are still submitting their forms. You're perfectly fine and you don't need to remake the form! Thank you for bringing this up!

(June 22, 2021 - 5:52 pm)

Hi, hi! I'll make this post again because it kind disappered?

I just kind of want to change Aster's character a bit? I don't want Aster to tease a lot? They're just kind of a just really outgoing character? I don't really know about the sappy part too. I had a general idea, but I don't really know anymore-

If you don't want to change Aster's character, I don't really mind! It's just if you have the time and stuff, I kinda want Aster changed? 

Thank you and I'm sorry!! >-<

okay, here we go!

[form 2/2]

Name: Caeli Felix McCove-Daren

Age: 14 1/2.

Gender and Pronouns: female, she/her- but i don't mind it if people use the 'wrong' pronouns.

Appearance: i've got shoulder-length wavy black hair with bright yellow tips and a tiny braid hanging by my left ear. my skin is pale olive and i've got gray-black-brown eyes. i'm kind of short for a fourteen-and-a-half-year-old, and i'm average weight. oh, and i have wings! they're dark gray, feathery, and kind of big. (she's wearing a short white tank top with an abstract feather design in black on the front, faded jean shorts, tons of bracelets and anklets, and yellow sandals. She occasionally puts on a yellow 'Aerial Sports Summer Team' sweatshirt that's too big for her.)

Personality: bubbly and fun, kind of a 'popular nice kid', sweet to everyone, very kind and hates conflict, always happy, hiding social anxiety and fears and doubts and worries behind a mask of cheerfulness, can talk on and on for hours, occasionally drifts off and ignores the world. forgetful and anxious. tries to be a good student but has attention issues and longs to be outside. hates closed spaces. writes everything important down so she doesnt forget it.

Any Allergies?: just shrimp!

Magic Ability: i have wings, so i can fly, naturally!

Backstory: well, this is a strange question. my half-sibling callisto grew up with our dad and their mom while i grew up with my mom in a coastal town. she was working most of the time and basically let me do whatever i wanted, so i had a pretty good life, i guess! occasionally i got to go on a train ride and go see callisto and dad, which... wasn't that great. except for callisto, they're awesome. but dad isnt. oh- im rambling now, sorry.

Luggage: i don't need much! just my journal, photos from home, a giant waterbottle, etc.

Would you like to ship your character?: shipping... hm. caeli's aroace i think, so maybe not. but if she was open, it'd be with another girl.

Anything I should know of?: she's good at gym and language arts, but gets pretty average grades everywhere else. it'd be super poggers if caeli could join a bunch of clubs and have way too much homework and get barely any sleep because y'know.

Dorming with another person?: sure!

Introductory?: i don't really mind, but it'd be cool if callisto could run into caeli in the hallway when she's surrounded by a bunch of friends and then embaress her.

Other: i'm very excited for this school and to make friends and to have fun!

[still super itchy from camping- plus im v dehydrated so theres like no way im focusing on spelling]
