Royal Academy is the most prestigious school in all of the lands. Well known for raising the best knights, kings, queens, blacksmiths, etc. Any job that one performed in a castle the Academy prepares a student for that chosen job. However not just anyone gets in. Each and every student is chosen for being already exceptional or having great potential. Royal Academy is located in the Castle of the Cisgadb County, a country that is neutral to all and thus not a danger to any countries citizens.

About the RP: This is going to be medieval style with some modern values thrown in. In other words there will be no electricity and things like mattresses aren't made of the same material as modern day. Things like flushable toilets that have been around since B.C. however will be present. Baths will be large baths that are separated by gender. Basically you'll be a student learning what your best skill is. This may be being a knight, blacksmith, etc. Anything that's done in a castle. You can also be a prince or princess learning how to act like one and to become a good leader. Other than classes there will be a plot for you guys to follow with. There will also be things like fighting animals which will be more apparent once the RP starts. Also there is no magic or non-existant creatures so no dragons or phoenixes etc.



Rules:
1) All BMG rules apply
2) I am GM and my word is law
3) No godmodding, bunnying or autohitting
4) If you have a problem with another RPer then tell me privately via PM
5) Try not to deviate from the plot too far. If you have and idea then feel free to share it with me
6) Avoid too much tennising or one liners
7) Keep romance PG-13
8) I may contact you privately to help with plot. This will be things like asking you to make a character or do something with your character.

My SU: (*NOTE: Teachers will not have SUs and I will be the only one controlling teachers)
Name: Dahlila Ikadoshi (*work in progress)
Age: 15
Gender: Female
Appearance: A height of 5'6'' with black hair that goes almost mid back and golden eyes which her bangs slightly cover. She wears black boots with black pants tucked into them. For a top she wears a v-neck elbow sleeved shirt with the body of it black and the sleeves white. The v on it has strings that tie it together. She also wears black gloves on her hands.
Personality: Dahlila is cheerful and friendly and hardly ever shy. She loves to learn about all kinds of things and loves to write stories. She also loves to learn about metals and how they meld finding the things that can be made with them. She is kind and caring towards others and has an accent to her voice similar to the modern day brooklyn accent.
History: Dahlila was born the daughter of an infamous knight of the kingdom of Cisgabd and a lord of the land. Her father was also the brother of the woman who the Prince of Cisgadb married. Thus she grew up around the school with a very peaceful life with her cousin of the same age. Despite being of a higher status than others of the land she learned to treat them as equals and to act like a princess should even though she has no royal blood. She would always read books finding the stories amazing and loved to watch the castle's blacksmith work. When she was ten she watched as a family of barn owls in the stables knocked a freshly hatched owlet from their nest. Luckily it fell into hay safely and Dahlila rescued the young chick and nursed it and helped it grow. She learned when all it feathers grew in that unlike the normal barn owl that had brown and white feathers, the owlet had black instead thus the reason it was abandoned by its parents. At fifteen the blacksmith suggested to Dahlila's family that she attend Royal Academy to see if maybe she had a talent other than writing as he believes she has the potential of a great blacksmith.
Position: Blacksmith
Pet: Luna (Barn Owl with a melanin defect) Female

Name:
Felicity Seraph
Age:14
Gender: Female
Appearance: Shoulder length black hair and a height of 5'4'' with golden eyes. She wears black boots that are only made for the royal family, with black tights and a black dress that is made of some of the finest clothing materials. The dress is styled with some lace on the body with the sleeves being billowy, the hem not going further than her knees.
Personality: Felicity like her cousin is cheerful and friendly. However she has little confidence and is afraid of things such as war and hurting others. Despite this fear she has a strong sense of protectiveness towards those she cares for and can become ruthless to protect them.
History: Felicity was born alongside her twin brother Gabriel, the two being the children of the King and Queen of Cisgadb. She grew up freely playing around the castle with her cousin and brother as well as reading the many books in the library of the castle. She also learned the basics of what she needs to know as a future queen. At eleven she received a puppy from a litter of two puppies her mother and father's dogs had, the dogs being a siberian husky and a black shepherd. Naming the puppy that was black and white with a blue and a brown eye Angelique she raised her to act as a guard as well as a pet and continued her simple life with her family. At fourteen in hopes of making her realize how strong of a queen she could be Royal Academy offered her a chance to learn with them.
Position: Princess
Pet: Angelique (siberian husky/black shepherd mix) Male

Name: Gabriel Seraph
Age:14
Gender: Male
Appearance: Short messy brown hair, green eyes and a height of 5'5''. He like his sister wears black boots only made for the royal family but unlike her he wears black pants tucked into them and a white button up shirt with a long black coat that has the emblem of the country embroided in gold on the back which is two black angel wings extending from an arrow.
Personality: Gabriel is calm and collect never letting things bother him much. He is very protective of his sister however he often doesn't show emotions and is usually bored. He prefers to think logically about things. He rather spend his time reading a book than anything else.
History: Gabriel was born alongside his twin sister Felicity to the Royal family of Cisgadb. However while his sister is perfectly healthy he was born with asthma thus he never had interest in exercise. He spent most of his time reading growing up rather than running around playing and while his mother said that his asthma did not mean he couldn't be active. At eleven like his sister he got a puppy from their dogs litter of two. Naming him Sora, the male brown and black puppy also had one eye blue and the other brown like his own sibling. After recieving the puppy he spent much of his time teaching him to become a guard dog. While he was active when growing up the teachers at Royal Academy found him to have hidden potential so they invited him alongside his sister.
Position: Squire
Pet: Sora (siberian husky/black shepherd mix) Male

Age: 17

Gender: Male

Appearance: Black long hair, he knots it in a ponytail. He has scars on his face, one notably goes under his eye. 5’10 and 120 pounds. Skinny and has a small appearance allowing him to go unnoticed. Much to his dismay. He wears a shirt and pants. Like how a squire would dress.

Personality: He’s an attention hog, loves all of it going to his head. Still he always doubts himself and he hates himself for it. He works hard at what he does. Little bit of a loud mouth.

History:John’s an orphan, his parents died at a very young age, so he doesn’t remember life with them. He grew up fending for himself, he had Emmy though. His best friend. Those two fight side and side and they became really close. At age 12 they both decide to run away together. On the road and broke they decide to steal from the Mayor of (insert town name). They scouted the place ahead of time, making sure everything will go smooth. Of course they weren't expecting him, the towns executioner to be there. Emmy being the lookout could only mutter a slight ah before he was beheaded. John scared drew out his sword, the executioner only stared at him, with his cold eyes before the building exploded. John wakes up in hut, He meets Lafleur. A past knight, after John pleads and pleads. They agree John can Stay here and train. A couple years later a man comes to town, he goes to the hut and observes John’s training. After he’s done. He hands him a letter. A letter for a spot at Royal Academy.

Question. Are Rogues/Assassins an available class? If so, I'd like to reserve a spot as well. This is very interesting.
 
Name: Morgan Agrippa

Age:14

Gender:Female

Appearance: Morgan is only about 5'5" with a small build. Her skin is a bit tanned and her eyes are colored a reddish-brown (the red part due to a slight lack of pigment in her eyes). Her hair is a very dark blue, though often seen as black in darker lighting, and it's bob-cut. On most days, she will wear a green dress like this:
sims dress.png Because I had no idea how to describe it, I just took it from a screenshot of Sims Medieval. the quality's bad because I had to take the shot from a youtube video
. On more casual days, Morgan likes to wear a white tunic with brown pants, and usually a dark brown cloak on colder days.

Personality: Morgan is very calm, especially around animals. But she does get more nervous and self-conscious around people, mostly because she hasn't had much interaction with anyone outside of her home. When finding herself in conflict, she resorts to the 'flee like it's the apocalypse' tactic, and rarely fights back. Morgan has a thing for animals, horses especially. She loves being around horses, caring for them, and riding them. (I'll make up some more traits later as it goes on)

History: Morgan was born in a small country called Cynfos. She was the daughter of a servant who worked/lived in the royal castle. Her father was never mentioned, and she never knew who he was for most of her life. She didn't have much relations with the royals, up until she was around 7 years old. On that day, the Prince's horse was startled, and didn't calm down until she intervened. It was then that she found her talent with horses, and was given the job to work in the stables. Since that day, she had also started a slight relationship with the prince, who was three years older than her. Over the years, she had formed a crush on him, but it immediately ended 5 years later. That year, the King died, and the Queen ascended to the throne. In the King's will, he revealed that he had an affair with Morgan's mother 12 years ago, and that he had an illegitimate child who was technically royal blood. That was when she realized that her long-time crush was her half-brother, and avoided speaking to him. Although the Queen was shocked by the King's confession, she still had to teach Morgan to be a royal, giving her the basics over the course of two years. At the age of 14, Morgan was given an invitation to Royal Academy, to further her training.

Position: Princess

Pet: Lo (Icelandic Horse) male

Time of Availability: School starts for me on Monday, so when that day comes, I'll be available anytime after 3:00 PM (Colorado timezone). But for now, I'm available anytime.

@Bad Apple; A horse is allowed. And on another note everything looks good except the end of the history. They are invited to Royal Academy by the staff there to further skills or realize their potential, not sent by family. So just edit that part of the history and other than that accepted.

@Booster Gold; That history is still to vague and as I said above to Bad Apple they are invited to the academy by the teachers. It can be personally or a letter they receive in the mail.
 
Name: Mark Martin

Age:15

Gender: Male

Appearance: Mark is 5'6", with an average build. He has short, unkempt brown hair, brown eyes, and slightly tanned skin. He typically wears a long-sleeved white tunic, black vest, green pants, and brown shoes. He also has a scar on his lower right arm from a knife attack (see below).

Personality: On the shy, quiet side, especially with girls. However, he won't hesitate to help someone in need. The fact that he's quiet makes him a good listener, and he's much deeper and more insightful than many give him credit for.

History: Mark grew up on a farm in Cisgadb, where he and Alex spent much of their time keeping an eye (and ear, and nose) out for potential threats. Back then, he rarely had any thoughts of leaving the farm. That changed one day when he saw a shady-looking man running through the farm; when he went to investigate, the man immediately attacked him with a knife. Alex jumped to his master's aid, attacking the man until he kicked the beagle away. This, however, gave Mark the chance to grab his staff and KO the man with a well-placed whack to the head. It turned out that the man was a thief who had stolen an heirloom from a nearby lord, and Mark became a hero overnight. When word of this got out, TPTB at Royal Academy decided he had potential to become a knight, and invited him to train. With his family's encouragement, Mark eventually accepted.

Position: Squire

Pet: Beagle named Alex

Time of Availability: Usually mornings (Eastern Time), but I'm also on mid-afternoons or evenings sometimes.
