Name: Takashi Minamot

Age: 17

Gender: Male

Nationality: Japanese

Class: 3-D

Appearance: Standing at 5' 10", he blest with a lean body, with strong legs and arms, honed during baseball practice. He doesn't take to caring for his, dusty black hair, except for the occasional quick comb, so it left in a messy state, dropping not too far below his ears, not to hinder his performance. Said hair hides his dull gray eyes, and small nose. When not wearing the school uniform (Black blazer, white dress shirt, black dress pants and penny loafers), he wears a white polo shirt under a red hoodie with black jeans and light weight black sneakers.

Personality: Takashi is relaxed being, a trait he picked up in middle school. He prefers to take things at a steady pace, not to slow, not to fast, attempting to figure out situations before they get out of hand. He tends to be patient, but can get annoyed if he has to wait too long. Compared to the Average Joe, he will be more interested with foreign ideas or objects, rather than going into a panic. Takashi sees the glass half full, and gives people a fair shot, unless they prove to be too shady or abnormally goody-goody.

Birthday: March 23rd

Talents/Hobbies: Baseball, American rock, reading (usually fiction)

Likes/Dislikes: Tests, math, people who look down on others, people who rush things.

Type of Magic you want: Physical Magic

History: Takashi was born as the first born of Minamoto family, and since has been an only child. Since his early years, both mother and father have desired him to labor in the elite in the workforce, and focused on his academic skills And while he followed his parents will throughout elementary school, leading him to small social life, it was the end of his sixth year of educational life when he discovered another calling. Bored at a friend's abode, he happened upon a baseball game. Intrigued by the sport, Takashi's eyes were glued to the screen while his friend explained what he could.

Upon enrolling into middle school, he promptly signed up for the school’s baseball team, much to his parent’s display. Naturally they were against the idea, as how training sessions would heavily intercept with Takashi’s studies. But he showed potential to the coach, whom with his help, Takashi convinced his parents to join full time. He was accepted into the team with open arms, become fast friends with the teammates, especially with the captain. He taught Takashi the skills he needed fir baseball, including trick throws, secret plays that were the specialty of the club, lots of physical exercise(some which Takashi believes he is still recovering from), and how to enjoy the sport not for the competition, but the love of the game.

The team suffered its ups and downs, with memorable wins with magnificent plays, to devastating loses, whose skills Takashi analyzed and applauded. Teammates came and went, a true loss being the captain himself as he graduated during Takashi's start of his seventh grade. At least he went out with a bang, winning the championship under his guidance and Takashi's backing. Others took the captain's place in the pasting years, with Takashi preferring to be one of the followers, leaving middle school with a smile.

Takashi quietly entered the baseball team of Shinozuka High School as a freshman, where unfortunately did not share his views. They trained to the extreme and showed their rivals no mercy, to the point of being borderline barbarians/ It was Takashi's first experience with stupid, immature jocks, and intended it to be his last, leaving the team after three weeks. It wasn't the end of his baseball days, as he took the time to arrange rendezvous with former teammates from middle school, usually turning out unsuccessful with busy schedules, happening every now and then.

However, Mr. and Mrs. Minamoto took their son's removable of the team as a sign that his "baseball phase" was over, and ushered him back to business. Having nothing to do with his parent's wishes, Takashi took on the rebellious attitude that teenagers his age often wield, resisting his parent's demands, and finding a way to survive by the bare minium, until he can move out and start college.

Really and truly
1. Picture's Worth a thousand words! But if it will make you happy, I'll add to his description sometime.
Flame Mistress is right - a written description is always mandatory. Pictures can not replace words on a written-word RPG forum.

Also got to say that your font is pretty irritating to read, and you may want to split the plot into paragraphs so it's not an annoying wall of text.

Okay, let me tell you that the new class system doesn't make sense. You can't have years 1-4; there's 6 years in elementary school, 3 years in junior high school, and 3 years in high school. So there can't be 4 years.

And told you.

...Okay, so are we in Junior High School or in High School? Do you actually know anything about the Japanese Education System?

And before you retaliate with "But this is anime-based - it's not set in the real world!", have you ever seen any kind of Japan-based anime with four years in a school or something like that? No? Thought so. Even if it is anime-based, it needs to have at least some logic in it.

Yes. I am quite aware of how the Japanese school system works. What you should know is that the school isn't the focal point. It's an intermediary for the role-play. You can role-play what you did in the day, but I won't be making any classes a main plot. This is a role-play about magic. Not education.

My deepest apologies, mind taking the time to review an LSU?


Name: Angie-Scarlet Clearjoy

Age: 16

Gender: Doll Female

Nationality: French

Class: 1-A

Appearance:

Angie-Scarlet's double-tailed black hair only reaches her shoulders, but still manages to turn some heads. Well, people are usually staring at the giant blue rose that sits on her right temple, but let's move on. Her eyes, like the rest of her outfit, are a deep blue hue. Both eyes are topped with just the right amount of masquara to make them seem rather empty and doll-like. In contrast, her petite lips are coated with a deep red lipstick, while her similarly petite nose happened to be placed above it. She considers any other make-up a bit over-the-top, so other than the lipstick and masquara, make-up is visibly absent on her face. Her ears and the rest of her face are completely free of piercings. All this tops a generally round visage.

Angie-Scarlet' skin is not deathly pale, but it still gives off a porcelain image. Her frame rises to a bit above 5 feet. And then, we get to her fashion tastes. Like I hinted, her outfit is based off that of an old-fashioned, slightly goth-loli doll. Her top is a blue corset with a matching white buttoned shirt and tiny black bowtie under it. Covering the entirety of her legs is a black-rimmed deep blue skirt which looks it would belong in a western movie. You wouldn't be able to see these from a normal angle, but white stockings cover the entirety of her legs (thighs don't count) and to finish it off, some simple blue shoes which really look like they belong on a life-size doll. Which is what she is.

Personality: At the most, Angie-Scarlet barely passes for a human. The first thing one would notice is that she's very poised and composed, down to the last detail. She's obscenely polite and forgiving, her smile is too damn angelic and unnerving to be true, she tries her best to get along splendidly with others... Dear, she's just too innocent; which is absolutely what she's looking for when putting up this living doll image. She's perfected this act over the years, right down to the refined speech patterns and the "innocent" giggle. Even if she does find a problem with something or someone, she'll try to put what she's trying to say in the sweetest form possible, so the other party doesn't feel as offended as they normally would. (Hell, she can put it in a song if you want.) All in all, Angie-Scarlet is certainly a girl you can easily socialize with, and most certainly won't threaten to rip you apart if you get in her way,

unless we're talking about the hot Italian chick who's also in Theater Club. (Of course, what refined rich girl DOESN'T have endearing character traits?) It's a very little known fact, since she acts there's nothing going on, but Angie-Scarlet happens to have... a "thing" for this girl in her class named Monica Fiorelli (played by *Jean Grey*); and when she gets attached to someone, she's probably not going to let go anytime soon. Suddenly, money becomes simple pieces of paper which she can spend without worries (this sadly isn't the case anymore, her parents blocked her account), and all of a sudden, Angie-Scarlet suddenly seems like an average girl in a normal Japanese high-school.

Her composure changes drastically when prompted. Her giggle seems a whole lot more wholesome (but refined), the stiff doll facade breaks almost instantly, and she suddenly seems more willing to have a laugh. And all because of a hot girl. Of course, if anything threatens to get in the way of her chances with Monica, she'll flash another innocent smile that shortly but sweetly says "Kindly get the f@ck off my future girlfriend."

What exactly does she see in Monica? Angie-Scarlet has always found girls of her own nationality to be a bit boring, but it's not just her looks that bedazzled her. What really drew her in was how she was so "open" about herself. She was rebellious, outgoing, everything Angie-Scarlet wasn't. Perhaps she was sick of the world around her being the same, and that made her more open to black sheep in the crowd. Of course, there's that one barrier that blocks the path to Monica no matter how hard she tries, and that's her resentment towards females. Of course, Angie-Scarlet'll try her best to get there. (Note that I can't deploy this plot right away, as the RP starts on what I believe is the first day of school.)

Oh, just for communication's sake, call her Angie. Angie-Scarlet is a bit of a mouthful, and she doesn't want to get faces from people.

Birthday: December 11th

Talents/Hobbies: Drama, Singing, Dancing, Pretty much every instrument that comes to mind (except any variety of saxophone or brass instrument)

Likes: Monica, roses, Anime with a generally dark theme, fluffy pillows, Monica, any sort of sour candy... Monica

Dislikes: Seaweed, having Monica not like her, arrays of pink, competition for Monica's interests, sugary desserts

Type of Magic you want: Mental

History: Angie-Scarlet's parents, being rich socialites, expected only the best from their only daughter. Because they had such high expectations for her at such a young age, she went along with whatever they planned rather smoothly. By the time she was 8, she had mastered the vast majority of string instruments, although this left a large imprint on her sleep patterns. Since she was only 8, she didn't necessarily care at the time, and like any normal child, enjoyed making her parents happy.

5 years and many instruments later, Angie's parents wanted to get her into acting. Now that she was 13, she started having her own ideals about herself, which conflicted with her parents' image. That doesn't mean she hated them at all, her personality just took a 'different' turn here. Rebellious, one might call it? Of course, her parents attempted to silence this, as they didn't want stuff about family problems to go on the tabloids. Because of her naivety at that age, it wasn't that hard to coerce her.

Two years later, she started to compare herself to a doll in this macabre phase of hers. She didn't know it was called goth lolita at the time, but that's irrelevant right now. That was around the time her parents got her into modeling. They reluctantly told her that apart from the main fashion line, she was allowed to model her 'doll-like' dresses just for fun (Oh, what money can do.). This was the most important year of her life, as around this time she questioning her sexuality. Modeling got her to be surrounded by a lot of girls her age, and that only served to make her confused. She then decided to make a very naive decision and date one of the older designers (who was around 18, miraculously). After some 'healthy arguing' with her parents about her wavering sexuality (taking her to a priest was out of the picture), ending with Angie impulsively running away and moving in with her girlfriend. This girlfriend, much to Angie's dismay, had 'different' living standards than her lavish life. She realized two tings; that other people had life harder than her, and that money solves a lot of problems (such as living expenses for a girlfriend). After only a week, she was spotted by her parents when she was shopping and forced to to pack her bags... while her girlfriend wasn't home. Oh, agony.

Then, they moved to Japan. Angie remembers the reason being some business related stuff she really didn't give a sh!t about, but their family was probably all over the tabloids back in France because of her. Of course, both her parents and her (to some degree) hope that she would start out on a clean slate. If ever.

Still, it doesn't make any sense. I know education isn't the main point here, but you can't have four years in a school. Why don't you just fix it?
