Well, traditionally black magic is considered evil and is used for evil purposes. I was thinking something less morbid, like using the darker side of usual magic and have crazy antics with voodoo.

Kind of like Blood Magic in Dragon Age?

Also, Tomia am I accepted? :blush:

I feel like that would be okay, but could you describe the kind of magic you were thinking of just so I can see if we're on the same page? Also if your character is a student then it's okay as long as they haven't mastered it.


The black magic I was thinking about is incantations, magic circles, voodoo, tarot cards and stuff like that. Most of it is harmless unless she uses it in combat.

Adapa's philosophy is based around the idea that magic is just a science, so we just make sure to remain consistent.

When he came to the age of 13, his father sent him immediately to the academy where it was little surprise that he went into House Torven. His brother, Alistair had been in House Davmor untill he graduated as was expected since he was in line to rule the kingdom. Artanis was perfectly content with becoming his brother's Royal Minister of the Kingdom, tasked with acting as the King in order to move the kingdom along through the terrible storms of government.

Both she and her brother natural prodigies, were already fulfilling their royal duties by the age of 13, when they were then sent to the academy to become true experts in their respective studies. Elendil was much more subtle in her art than her twin brother. He focused more on charming people where as she preferred the twilight of midnight and the call of the wild.

History of Kingdom-Founded by Illythri Helyanwe millennia ago, they are an old and establish royal family. As they prospered, their fiefdom grew. Soon, it encompassed a large swathe of the very heart of Anthiral. They built their citadel at the heart of their great kingdom, a great city divided into four sections by towering walls and large wrought iron gates. Anthil and the Helyanwe bloodline are among the most ancient in Anthiral, with ties and kins with both the elves and humans. Constant raiding by the orcs in the kingdom's early years seeded a hatred for the green-skinned warmongers, which would carry on through the centuries until eventually the bloodshed had grown so great that the two races eventually negotiated a treaty. Bearing borders with almost all the lands and races of Anthiral, the Kingdom of Anthil grew to be much more tolerable in the last century towards foreigners. The current King, Aaron the Kind, married the royal daughter of an equally ancient and noble Elven house, Princess Esmeralda now Queen, and fostered four half-Human-half-Elven children.

Student:
Name- Jinx Grimsbane
Age- 17
Gender- female
Appearance-
Image


Race- human
Personality- Adelheid is rather sadistic and has a morbid sense of humor. Nothing makes her more happy than scaring people with her incredible skill of appearing out of thin air. She's quick to make an uncomfortable joke about death and dismemberment of people around her.
How many years have they attended the school?: 4
House-Abisila
Skills: Jinx is very skilled in many forms of black magic. She takes special interest in alchemy and voodoo.
Weaknesses: Jinx is not very skilled in hand-to-hand combat and is not physically strong.
Equipment: A black grimorie that she made by hand and is constantly adding to it, a bag of alchemy ingredients, and a ritual knife.
Bio: Jinx was born to a rather poor human family in the middle of Yendell. Since living in a very dangerous part of the world, Jinx's family found the only somewhat profitable profession for their social class, undertaking. For most of her early life, Jinx helped tend to the dead with her mother and father, cleaning up wounds and digging graves. Seeing the horrors of death caused Jinx to see the world for what it is at a very early age. In her spare time, she read up on death and the afterlife and the magic that goes with it. She found the subject of black magic interest, but she knew she would never be able to study and practice it. She was born into undertaking and in her mind, there was no way to escape it.

One day, while carting the dead back to Leòthe , Jinx and her family were attacked by a bunch of dark elf bandits. The bandits killed her mother and father right in front of Jinx and were about to kill her until a stranger stepped in and saved her. The stranger was a dark elf by the name of Dirutain and was Mage for the elven king of Yendell. Feeling sorry for Jinx, Dirutain took her in. For the next three years, Jinx studied black magic under Dirutain at an apprentice level. Dirutain only taught her minor spells and incantations, nothing that could cause serious harm. Feeling that Jinx needed proper education, Dirutain, under the blessing of the king, sent her to Karmiar to further her studies in black magic.

The kingdom app looks good, as does your first one, so they are accepted. The second one is a little too young I think. Maybe he could be 11 or 12 and have this be his first year? I'd accept him then.

Weaknesses: Jinx is not very skilled in hand-to-hand combat and is not physically strong.
Equipment: A black grimorie that she made by hand and is constantly adding to it, a bag of alchemy ingredients, and a ritual knife.
Bio: Jinx was born to a rather poor human family in the middle of Yendell. Since living in a very dangerous part of the world, Jinx's family found the only somewhat profitable profession for their social class, undertaking. For most of her early life, Jinx helped tend to the dead with her mother and father, cleaning up wounds and digging graves. Seeing the horrors of death caused Jinx to see the world for what it is at a very early age. In her spare time, she read up on death and the afterlife and the magic that goes with it. She found the subject of black magic interest, but she knew she would never be able to study and practice it. She was born into undertaking and in her mind, there was no way to escape it.

One day, while carting the dead back to Leòthe , Jinx and her family were attacked by a bunch of dark elf bandits. The bandits killed her mother and father right in front of Jinx and were about to kill her until a stranger stepped in and saved her. The stranger was a dark elf by the name of Dirutain and was Mage for the elven king of Yendell. Feeling sorry for Jinx, Dirutain took her in. For the next three years, Jinx studied black magic under Dirutain at an apprentice level. Dirutain only taught her minor spells and incantations, nothing that could cause serious harm. Feeling that Jinx needed proper education, Dirutain, under the blessing of the king, sent her to Karmiar to further her studies in black magic.

Accepted.

Thanks, I'll change the age. Is Mithril allowed:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mithril

Okay, they are all accepted. Also, I suppose Mithril is okay.

I think it's going to be a little less strong in this though, and rare to keep things fair.

Student
Name: Ephram var Ortoged
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Appearance: Tall but thin, with sharp features. Pale skin color, with dark blond hair and deep-set green eyes.
Race: Human
Personality: Manipulative, arrogant, extremely intelligent, and sometimes very blunt.
How many years have they attended the school?: 4 years, in 5th year now.
House: Torven
Skills: Skilled swordsman, knows how to handle a crossbow, decent with poisons, and a master strategist. Also a strong manipulator. If you were to start your very own feudal secret service: he's the man you want.
Weaknesses: Not that physically fit, arrogant and blunt at times, not always as likeable as he'd like to be.
Equipment: Steel longsword(enchanted to make it more durable, so that it can be used to block other blades without harming it), steel punching dagger, dagger, crossbow + steel bolts, black (boiled) leather tunic, several leather belts and pouches.
Bio: Ephram var Ortoged was born in the Kingdom of Ezramor to human nobles, the rulers of the relatively large coastal town of Ortoged. Born to such a wealthy, and thus powerful, family, he became well-educated. Ephram was raised mainly by servants, as his parents were usually busy with other things, such as ruling their lands or visiting nrighbouring nobles, or the royal court - his father especially spending quite some time there. As a second son, Ephram got to pursue other interests than just fighting and being a knight. As he grew 'older' he was sent to Castle Karmiar to further develop his talents. Unfortunately, in recent years, his older brother has died, leaving him as heir to Ortoged.

How many more teacher apps do you think we'll get? If it looks like not many other people will be teachers, I think to make sure the RP gets off the ground some teachers should teach more than one class.

I feel like the skills and weaknesses are a little unbalanced. Fix those a bit and you should be good.
