Elfen High 2 (War OOC, Closed, Great rps are forged in fire)

[Nightkill the Emperor]

You know, I've scrapped plans for both Enya and the Israeli character.

Now I'm thinking about making a naive St.Gabriel exchange schoolgirl.

Go for it.

Weaknesses (Optional, but you could get more points if you do this): He's still very fond of his mother after all these years, so "Yo momma" jokes are a good way to get him to punch you in the face. Doesn't like onions and Vietnamese food, but it's not a major weakness of his.

Personality: It's a bit of a mixed bag. He tries acting friendly and decent towards people, but being in Elfen High often makes that a very difficult and tiring effort, and he resorts to being as abrasive or obnoxious as the person he's dealing with. William also has a tendency to be a gormless twit, though he can be rather competent when the situation calls for it. He has a lot of random knowledge and stories from his travels, which he talks about every so often, and well as a strong dislike of the French, which he talks about often as well.

History: Born on a farm in North Yorkshire in 2003, William grew up living a simple life of taking care of animals, particularly sheep and the sheepdogs, and doing fairly well in school. He was commonly referred to as Edward or Eddie in those days, as he had five uncles and two cousins named William, and even the postman was named William, so Edward was much more useful for identifying him, and his mother and sisters liked the sound of Eddie more than Edward. But things began to change for the boy as he got older. One day he simultaneously discovered his power to hurt and heal when he was attacked by a rabid fox while wandering the family farm one summer night. Edward found himself blasting the beast with glowing white energy from the palm of his hand with a precise, killer instinct he was completely unaware he possessed. Young Eddie Nilark was a gentle, peaceful lad who loved animals, thinking they secretly acted like they did in children's books, talking and going on adventures and having tea together; cheerful, innocent things like that. He tried to pick the wounded fox up to take it back to his house or a vet, when shimmering green light flowed from his palms, restoring the fox back to full vitality and curing its rabies at the same time. The boy reasoned it must haven been some strange dream and went back inside, not telling anyone about what happened.

But William's magical abilities would continue unexpectedly manifesting themselves, and the boy seemed to have little control of when they did, though panic or nervousness seemed to make his body more prone to lash out with its powers. His family grew increasingly frightened about what Eddie might do to them. When a man came knocking at the door to tell them their son qualified for a special school down in Norfolk built especially to teach children like him to control any magical attributes they had the Nilarks gladly took the opportunity to send William off, hoping he would come back cured, or at least able to hide his peculiar talents so as to he able to live as a decent member of ordinary society.

Little Eddie Nilark, a decent if not rather naive teenager with a messy head of thick brown hair and bright, attentive green eyes journeyed to the strange land of Elfen High, and adopted the pseudonym of Edward Craig Bellemew, hoping to hide his identity and not embarrass his family by letting anyone discover there was a magical freak tainting the family tree. The once cheerful, innocent boy grew more and more unhappy and distant from everyone around him. The person he had the most contact with his first year was a sadistic, arrogant German homunculus named Hildegarde. He didn't bond much with the other students he was around, as they seem quite fine with their own groups as they were. The only "lively" thing for the Yorkshireman were the gladiator fights with the participates randomly selected and forced to fight. Edward didn't expect much else to happen to him as his first year at Elfen High came to close.

And then the Norse god Loki marched himself and an army of demons out of the bum of "The Great and Mighty" Lazrian, and began attacking the school. Edward was in his room at the time, sulking about the fact that he hadn't had to courage to volunteer to dive into Hell itself to rescue the kidnapped angel Gabriel. When he heard explosions and screaming in the parts of the school beneath his dormitory he stepped out of his room, though his timing was rather poor. A lone demon was prowling the student dorms, possibly searching to score some easier kills, and spotted Edward immediately. The demon rushed towards the boy, drawing his sword and bringing in down towards the lad's head in a deadly arc.

Edward thought this was the end for him, when his powerful instincts returned. The same precise killing skill that had reared its head on the day the fox tried attacking him had returned, stronger than ever, and far more precise. Before it was a compulsive urge of simply retaliating with magic, but now it was a cold, calculating computer in his mind, turning his entire body into a weapon. The last thing Edward remembered before blacking out stopping the sword with his bare hands, ripping it from the demon's grasp and decapitating the demon.

When Edward came to he was covered in blood, both from his own body and dozens, possibly hundreds of demons. His mind had been unconscious, but his body had been quite active, transformed into an instrument of death by some unknown force in his brain charged with keeping him alive. Edward briefly greeted Thor, who had arrived to take Loki back to Asgard and imprison him there, before he collapsed again, this time from his numerous wounds he had received during the battle.

Fast forward two years and the naïve farm boy from Yorkshire had changed. He had gone through more arguments with his family after the details of his killing rampage during the demon attack came out. His parents had agreed to send their second son away to school to help him control and hide his powers, not become even more dangerous! Edward glumly returned to Elfen High in a self-imposed exile of sorts, thinking his family no longer wanted him around. The boy dropped the use of his pseudonym, no longer caring what impact the nature of his being might have on the Nilark family name. Besides, rural Yorkshire and Elfen High seemed like two completely different planets; it was doubtful much talk of what he did in the massive school would leak out up into his old northern home. After all, he had hardly done anything noteworthy at all his first years of attending Elfen High, and William didn't think he would get into any daft, wacky/world-saving adventures during his last year at the school.

This is where the author pauses for a minute or two to gleefully laugh about all that's going to happen to William.

Over the course of the next year he would accidentally become the president of Elfen High, fight a mad scientist angel in the ruins of Atlantis, call the Egyptian god Set a paedophile (though he doesn't remember that bit), befriend what was certainly one of the most insane man/bears to ever live, and teamed up with Thor, Richard the Janitor, Lord Alastor, and the unfathomable madness that is Dunefiend the Nigga Bear to fight against King Arthur, who was allied with the Fae. Shortly after defeating King Arthur and taking Excalibur he disappeared mysteriously for a short while. He doesn't clearly remember what went on while he vanished, but when he returned to Elfen High there was a redhead clone of him that he may or may not have seen in a hallucination/dream earlier that year. The clone, or Reddy as William initially called him, believed his actual name was Edward Craig Bellemew, and that William was the clone of him or something like that. The Abrahamic War broke out between Hell, Heavensgate and Earth, and William was gravely injured in the fighting of the Siege of Heavensgate. William and Edward fused together through strange magical means (this is another time where Sir Nilark's memory is hazy and unclear as to what actually happened), and in typical teenage stupidity the fused being began calling himself Eldliam instead of something normal like William.

Whatever his name was, the changed Yorkshireman continued fighting in the Abrahamic War, present for the final battle in Dys. His fusion had certainly made him more confident, and he had little qualms about killing more demons. He received knighthood from King Harry for his actions in battle, and with the war concluded he left Elfen High to travel the world, accompanied by Dunefiend for the first few years. After Dunefiend left his company Sir Nilark continued his wandering for the next ten years, before returning back to Elfen High as a favour to his mad friend. He's gotten mixed up in more adventures again and is currently trying to bang a magic Nazi.

The skinny, innocent boy who left Yorkshire twelve years ago is practically unrecognisable now. Grown from 5'6 to 6'3, powerful hardened muscles now adorn his body. His thick mess of dark brown hair changed to become red and silky, and his bright green eyes have been dimmed by the conflict, destruction and loss he's seen. In spite of his celebrated status among the British people as a war hero, a people who otherwise despise most supernatural beings and especially ones from Elfen High for the catastrophic destruction of London, Sir Nilark is still unable to face his family again.

RP Sample: I'm on a horse.

I miss the time where he was just Suzaku.

Yeah. In hindsight it would have been better to avoid that whole "fusion/clone/whatever" clusterchuckle, but I figured I'd been doing enough rectons with William. Maybe in a parallel universe he just stayed as Suzaku and had sensible character development planned from start to finish.

I will flat out admit that I had read almost none of Con's stuff before roughly late arc 2, when he became good.

Before then it was just very confusing.

The Wikitravel advice for a gay person in Saudi Arabia is darkly hilarious.

Homosexuality is strictly punished with the DEATH PENALTY. It is common for Saudi and arab men to walk hand in hand as a sign of friendship, but it would be unwise for homosexuals to attempt the same. Sharing a hotel room (if you're a traditional, man and woman couple) as a way of cutting costs is normal, but homosexuals shouldn't even think about doing it secretly. Saudi Police of Vice and Virtue and the Muttawa will even invade your home if they have any slight suspicions. YOU CAN'T HIDE FROM THEM, SO DON'T TRY IT. And everyone gets the same punishment, so if you're caught you're dead. Once again, DON'T TRY ANYTHING HERE

Is there any particular city in Norfolk that Elfen High is near to, like Norwich or Great Yarmouth, or is there just a little village of normal people outside the school?

I think it's the village, but Norwich is perhaps just a half hour by auto.

Do you mean Norwich? Norfolk's a city in Virginia, but in England it's a county.

I'm going with the little village since I can get away with more humour that way, but having a big city like Norwich nearby could prove helpful.

Not sure how, but could.
