You know I'd be coming back.

NS Name: Nuxipal

Name: Cyra Achaemenid (Cyrus the Great)

Age: 14

Gender: Female

Sexual Orientation: Bi (Outwardly Hetero)

Grade: 9th

Clubs: Monarch Club, Religious Studies Club, Student Council

Sports: Soccer

Appearance: Cyrus has light brown skin, clearly of Persian descent, with short black hair. She stands 5'5" tall and stands without a slouch as a noble of her position was expected to stand.

Personality: Ambitious to a fault, Cyrus strives for excellence in everything she does. She is also extremely competitive, but very humble upon victory. She searches for the best in others and seeks to bring that out when it helps her achieve success. Overall, Cyrus is a kind and generous person whose ambition grows with each new achievement. On a more personal level, Cyrus is a bit awkward when outside of sports, clubs, or scholastic settings.

Brief History: A short paragraph explaining how your character made it to MAHE. Keep it under six sentences. The last thing Cyrus remembers is a Messagaete horseman's spear going through her chest and watching his head fall off his shoulders a moment later as another warrior killed him. She woke up moments later in a room surrounded by books reading one titled Cyropaedia: Book 8 written by Xenophon, which was under her face. She has frequent dreams of a woman named Cassandane with whom she feels a strong connection with, but has never told anyone about these dreams lest they mock her for them. Having lived such a powerful and influential life previously Cyrus gets déjà vu frequently when doing things similar to her previous life, such as winning a soccer match(winning a battle), reading about Persia or herself as Cyrus the Great, or when watching shows or playing games which involve the Middle East.

Headcanons:Speaks Farsi, Greek, and English with a Persian Accent



429 (Do not remove. This permits me to find your applications.)

I'll make a second character some time later to give people better chance to pick from their favorites.
For Cyra: Lowered her age and made her a freshman.

I belive I reserved a tableCharacter?
Name: Abraham Lincoln

Age: 16

Gender: male

Sexual Orientation: pan-sexual

Grade: sophomore

Clubs: student council,

Sports: Do we have golf?

Appearance: HE stands tall, at 6'4". (I know that isn't his real height, it is his new young person height), with a rugged face, some facial hair on his chin, and he like to get his fancy clothes on. (bowtiesarecool)

Personality: He is the equivalent of a liberal, and very laid back. while he doesn't appear it, he suffers from depression. He likes to tell funny stories.

Brief History: As Lincoln watched the play, he could hear some one run up the stairs. Ignoring it, he continued to watch the play. However, on feeling something hit the back of his head, he felt himself collapse. trying to say good bye to his wife, his vision blacked out, and he faded...

Waking up in a bed, he soon came to a quick conclusion: this is a school, and therefore not heaven, but hell.
"oh boy," he thought.


Headcanons: He is a model railroader, and upon discovering tv, falls in love with the history channel.

Other Notes: If we can make our own clubs, he might try to make a model railroading club (in which no-one will join)

Discus throwing, I assume you mean.
A bit more of a description instead of simply pasting a mosaic would be appreciated, especially considering the age of him in that mosaic.
Ok, so we now know his likes and dislikes, but those are not the whole personality. EDIT: Also, "Bad politics" care to explain? /EDIT "Calculation when it comes to war" excuse me, but I didn't quite catch that phrase..... what do you mean?
Making assumptions, not always the best thing to do. A bit more detail about him as he died wouldn't be of harm.
Nope. The students wake up there - no choice or anything involved. Considering he's not the Ruler of Macedonia anymore (in addition to it not even being a monarchy anymore), I have to ask: Is that something like a wish/dream, or does he actually intend on trying to make it an empire?
Neither Israeli, nor Egyptian languages exist (unless with egyptian you are referring to ancient pre-arabic egyptian). Additionally, really, him speaking Hindu and Urdu? I can see where Persian comes from, but those two..... :eyebrow:
He's a 15 year old who just returned from the dead - No, he is not.

Sure thing. But he'll be open again if you don't apply for a couple days.

Saw that, and about the books..... sure, I suppose. That's the books I mentioned being on everybody's desk. I intended for them to be on two topics: Their lives, in case they don't remember, or just want to see something, and general history of what happened after their live - with there being multiple of both types, with varying sources, authors, and times of writing, as well as language in case of multilingual characters.

I'd appreciate a bit more for her history. Also, about hearing god - for the sake of rp neutrality I think it'd be the best to say she is convinced she hears god, regardless of whether or not that is true.
Otherwise, Accepted.

As for Clubs: You can start any club( or multiple) now, or join any existing ones (as long as it fits with how you make your character, of course), or both - though I'll repeat that a bit after the IC starts (giving people to ICly recruit members for their club) clubs without enough members will be closed down. So that means you can feel free to add a Model Railroading club to the clubs in which Lincoln is, and I'll add it to the main list - allowing people to join it.
As for sports: We are an Academy for the elite of the elite, we still are a school, but an excellent one - of course we have golf.
Your history and personality are a bit short, but mkay. I'll accept once you reply to me about the club(s).

Name: Yekaterina Alexeevna, though she strongly prefers her other name, Catherine

Age: 16

Gender: Female

Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual

Grade: 10th

Clubs: Monarch's Club
Student's Council
Founder and President of the Russian Club


Sports: Riding, Archery, Cheerleading Squad

Appearance:
Image


Personality: All in all, she's a pretty compassionate and kindhearted person, that is, until she gets angered, then be ready to suffer tremendously. She is a young woman of modest means, and seems to be growing more and more devoted to her intellectual studies with each passing day. Despite her sometimes sarcastic, and cynical nature, it is fairly obvious that she is very protective and compassionate for human life, order, and tolerance of others, and beneath her negative shell, she is quite timid and naïve above everything else, and only now is she beginning to grow out of that shell and spread her wings.

Brief History: Catherine the Great was a woman of many successes and virtues, showing her dominant position even in her later years. Everything was not alright however, as she had been in declining health, partly because of how furious she was with a certain Swedish cousin of hers for refusing to take the royal hand of marriage from one of her granddaughters. Apparently, she had gotten over it, but the level of stress on her as seen by her servants showed otherwise. Early one morning, she was at the usual chore of going to the toilet when she had suffered a stroke, collapsed into a coma, and died the next day.

In her dying moments, there was a faint light, a loud thud, and then the faint light had now come to overtake her entirely. Yekaterina awoke to find herself in her dorm, most likely having dozed off while studying, and came to the realization that she was now late for class. Hurriedly, she packed her items and ran off, hoping that she'll soon forget about that weird dream she just had.


Headcanons: She has a keen interest in sports and academics (mostly the latter), and doesn't seem to have a social life outside of the two, nor intends to, but her class/teammates beg to differ. In addition to English, she also speaks Russian fluently, sometimes with a bit of an accent in both, as well as conversational German and semi-conversational French. On occasion, she will have sudden flashbacks and visions from her previous life as the great Tsarina, but are so brief and cryptic that she often ends up getting more confused than alarmed.

Other Notes: She is an intellectual and favors intellectual pursuits of the mind, or a sophisticated sense of leisure, but she is prone to falling off her own standards to simply enjoy herself as a regular girl; she's classy, not snobbish. She's quite analytical as well, oftentimes her appearance misguides people of her actual intelligence. She also owns an old 18th century sword and dress that she remembers nothing about
