St. Peadrus MacCallion Exchange Program REBOOTED (OOC)

[Folaisia]

Hopefully the rest of the first day can go smoothly.

Me too. And hopefully, we can transition to first period by noon tomorrow.

Ojala, as they say. With school online and this quarantine I have a LOT of free time.

[Folaisia]

You got that right.

[Diahon]

Hm.

I'm interested. And unlike previous tries to get back to writing form, I'm healthier, or at least less sick, than I've been in quite some time, and there are far less distractions.

So: you say you got two guy slots left? I'll take them -- either this nation, if you'll let me use RP samples from my DEAT'd nation (and maybe have Purg and Lux vouch for my creative bonafides, though they're two years and two nations removed from relevance), or my puppet (which does have the advantage of not having been previously DEAT'd), or even both, as fancy strikes.

Lemme know your thoughts, Minh.

Hey, Diahon. Two slots are still open, so you can use either nation. I am now made aware that you have a DEAT'd nation, and I recognize your flag and former nation name. This means that you can present samples from your DEAT'd nation. However, again, it's your own discretion.

Dahon here -- thanks for that clarification. Now, let's start with something edgy:

A dead ringer for a teenage Macaulay Caulkin, except shorter, somewhat messier blonde hair, and his smiles... somehow sadder. While not evasive of company and will always put up a front of calm friendliness, he prefers to be alone with a book, either crossword puzzles or James Joyce's doorstoppers. Will certainly not make himself known if not already noticed.

Name: Stephen Daldry
Nation of Origin: United States (please take note of my sig)
Age: 16
Gender: male
Religion/Faith: None; if pressed, he'll simply say it has never crossed his mind.
School of Origin: United States International University (Wessington)
Current Year: third year/junior
Background:

The lone son and youngest child of university professors teaching at the United States International University in the capital city of Wessington, Stephen's life was destined to be as drab and regular as his parents', especially as he displayed a preference for scholarly subjects.

However, he had the exceedingly ill fortune to be born in the final decade of a 150-year-long, increasingly violent ideological battle between hierarchically nationalist conservatives and globalist egalitarian liberals, the proverbial last straw being the candidacy of and election to the United States presidency of Donald D. Dwarf, the diminutive head of Virginia's long-settled Dwarf clan, proud descendant of Julius Caesar and Charlemagne, raging narcissist, all-around bigot, serial inseminator, and the most prolific mass murderer in the history of mankind, with some 360 million people killed within the boundaries of the United States in less than one year of absolute rule.

At the tender age of twelve, Stephen was the only one of his family to survive the roundup and massacre of journalists and other intellectuals and their families that immediately followed Dwarf's election. After seven months spent in hiding from armed groups loyal to Dwarf, living off the increasingly denuded and defoliated land and polluted water, armed only with a stolen gun and a knife, Stephen would be discovered and saved by Yaniv Kaufmann, a former mercenary and second-in-command of the guerilla army that would finally overthrow the Dwarf regime; Kaufmann is now not only Daldry's adoptive father, but the current president of the United States.

Following the restoration of democracy in the United States, Stephen would resume his studies in the reconstructed university his parents once taught in, excelling in many academic subjects. However, the horrors of recent history still weighed heavily upon him behind a mask of equanimity and competence. In an apparent bid for a change of atmosphere, Stephen himself requested and was allowed to participate in the St. Peadrus MacCallion Exchange Program.

Health Issue(s): A perfectly healthy teenager... if a bit short. Say: four feet, eight inches. Also, might have some unpleasant flashbacks of those seven months AND something else.
Roleplay Sample: PPC might remember this bit.

[Les Etats Connuriste]

In my point of view, Verity, Detlef, Khalid and Sueentliok.

From my point of view, the Jedi are evil!

Is that Idi Amin?

[Les Etats Connuriste]

Is that Idi Amin?

Indeed, it is His Excellency President for Life, Field Marshal Al Hadji Doctor Idi Amin, VC, DSO, MC, CBE, Lord of all the Beasts of the Earth and Fishes of the Sea, King of Scotland and Conqueror of the British Empire in Africa in General and Uganda in Particular.

It is a mark of my support for Aminist Uganda in the World Assembly Secretary General elections - the flag shall return to normal by the time the weekend is over.

A real supporter would simply become one with Aminist Uganda. Tsk tsk.

I'm almost offended that you question my devotion to His Excellency - being part of the team that made it to 4th overall in 2016 is something I consider as one of my greatest achievements

Huh. Interesting

Just a warning;
So, uh...
Due to this yikes, I might not be able to post as often. Or at all, for at least the next few days.

EDIT: Approximately 3 minutes after I finished typing this, the issue was fixed.
