Roland College Chronicles (MT, OOC, Esquarium Only)

Postby Royal Kingdom of Quebec » Wed Jun 24, 2015 9:57 pm

Here's your IC thread, for those who have signed up.

Image




Four arches grace the entrance of Blount House, Roland College's oldest and main administrative building. The arches, historic and solid, are as well as its highly structured programs of academics, athletics and student life.

Roland College is an independent boarding school in Houma, Acadiana. Founded in 1871 as the co-educational Roland Wesleyan College, it is among the oldest schools still standing in Acadiana.
At Roland, boys and girls in Years 7 through 12 live and study on a picturesque campus surrounded by the Meynard Hills surrounding the campus on west, north and east, while bordering the beautiful East Sea. On an 800-acre campus in Northeastern Acadiana (located northeast of Banjia), the school has a population of approximately 652 students of various nationalities and highly qualified, dedicated faculty members.

Students enjoy a strong sense of community as they prepare for universities all across the world, with many of them on non-returning journey to worlds outside Esquarium. Building on over 140 years of tradition, Roland College is a mix of traditional values and modern society seeking to challenge the world ahead of them.

Once again, Roland College is pleased to announce that it will be back for its 214th school year, and thus will be welcoming a new crop of international students on top of existing domestic ones. Prospective students can be from Year 7 to 12, but are most likely to have passed the harsh, long admission process of an application and an entrance essay, followed by a personal interview. Coming from various backgrounds, interests and nationalities, they'll be welcomed like no other in Roland College and hopefully have a great time.

What would Roland bring? Competition, hatred, friendship, love, death or despair? It's up to how the things go in this small, isolated college....




Rules
Of Course, no one likes to keep, play or participate a RP without any rules or it will be very disorganized with lots of bad blood and problems in return! So, here are the things called....''rules''' that we should use. The rules are:

1. All the participating nations must be in Esquarium.
2. No godmodding of any kind. That means that there'll be no invincibility or super-perma glues.
3. No one-liners or Lyman-RPs please.
4. You're normally allowed to submit only one character per nation. A character from ONLY one puppet nation will be allowed. Second character will be allowed, depending on the RPer, at the OP's discretion based on one's RP history and quality.
5. To quote Luziyca, "Keep all whining out of this thread".
6. The language of instruction is English and French. The school offers courses in various other languages, most notable one being Latin. If the character's taking a foreign language course, then please contact the OP through responding through here.
7. You can RP as a student or staff, preferably student.
8. Sex and other crazy shits are allowed, just don't make them overly graphic.
9. To quote Pavonistade from Stranded... "Regarding edits to the OP, rules, and everything else: while I'm not obliged to give notice of any edits, I would just alert participants of changes anyways."
10. Have fun.

List updated. Also, here are my characters for now. I'll be using 2-3 due to myself being OP and to keep the RP flowing:

Character's full name:Sade Leblanc
Character's personality: Highly intelligent, wise, but with extremely bizarre habits and actions at times, highly addicted and advocating of Cannabis. May be rude if the respect's not being paid to him by others
Teacher/Student: Teacher
Short Bio: Born in nearby town of Hermans Bayou, he's very familiar to the school. He attended Roland for all 6 years of upper schooling, serving as the head boy and football team captain. After 5 years completing his BA and MA in Classics and Francescan Literature, he came back to teach in the school. He's now in his 12th year teaching in Roland, and is currently the head of Modern and Classical Languages Department. Because of this connection, his extreme love of Marijuana and owning+operating a homegrown farm in agricultural chambers are more or so tolerated.
Courses in instruction: Latin, Ancient Greek, Francescan, History (half the sections for junior grades)
Age : 35
A picture/Detailed description: This

Character's full name: Lucie Blanchard
Character's personality: Polite, genuine, sweet and very mature. Also quite intelligent, though not to the level of some of my other characters
Teacher/Student: Student
Short Bio: Daughter of a parliamentarian and a concert pianist, Blanchard grew up in an affluent, caring family who raised her in nature-filled house 12 hours from Roland. Progressing as an excellent vocalist and pianist, she moved to pursue her education in Roland, where she's now on her 4th year. It was initially very tough for Blanchard to settle into a structured environment, but she managed to grow into and thrive in it. Now, she's entering her last year of secondary school as not only an emerging musical talent, but also as the head girl.

They, after a long struggle, managed to break big with a restaurant business and are now in upper-middle class. Santeri joined the school on an athletic scholarship and is now the captain of football team. And of course, he is also Mr.Leblanc's farming assistant.

Character's full name: Katalína Kolskeggsdóttir Œskustrœdrmikilrœjlalingr
Character's personality: Katalína is an extremely insecure and reserved person, mostly quiet and observant, especially around people she isn't comfortably acquainted with. Despite showing a generally distant behaviour, she cares much about people she end up trusting and respecting. She is hardworking, causing her to often be anxious about not meeting her, or others' expectations. Finally, Katalína is rarely, if not never, cheerful, and tend to generally appear a bit melancholic to others, even when in a balanced neutral mood.
Teacher/Student: Student
Short Bio: Born on Œskustrœdrmikilrœjla, a medium-sized island in the south of the Sjal archipelago, she's the daughter of a Ministry of Culture employee and a grocery owner. She suffer from type 1 Osteogenesis imperfecta, making her bones brittles and making her generally frail, with a constant risk of bone fracture. She regularly swim, and is an avid book reader. However, she is quite reliant on analgesics to relieve her usual pain.
Preferred Elective courses (will be taken into consideration for Grades 9-12 classes) : Algebra II, history, civics, english
Age : 15
A picture/Detailed description: 1m58 (5' 2"), skinny, pale skin, long straight strawberry blond hair reaching to the middle of her back, blue eyes.

Precisions on the name: Sjalhaven doesn't use family names. For all intents and purpose, use Katalína (spell it without the acute i if you need) as a first name, and her patronymic name "Kolskeggsdóttir" for last name. The final part, the patrial noun "Œskustrœdrmikilrœjlalingr", should be ommitted in oral communications, though if anyone want to try to place this unpronounceable hell somewhere feel free to do so.

I would like to note that the train guard making an announcement of train's arrival in Giraween was done in the carriage, not at the platform. This is especially important to note, because Giraween is the station you need to get in order to go to Roland College. The train station that some of your characters at are 7-8 hours, as I have noted on IRC to one or two (most likely to Weis/Lyannesia), away from Giraween. So it'd make sense if your passenger's now on the carriage and hearing that, but won't if it's on station.

With that being said, I'll make an RP post in 16 hours. May have to do a timeskip on that one because people needs to start moving in and have their semester started. It's up to you on whether to continue RPing on that train or just move on.
