    This is an all english RPG, which means that we write the characters and posts in english and we expect you to be able to write good post, with correct grammar and use of words and punctation. Of course you can chat in dutch.

    In this RPG we'll follow a couple of students attending Springfield University– a university only willing to accept the best students, or the richest. Springfield is an university with a high reputation as well in sports as in grades. Students come from all over the world to attend and almost no one starts or ends in any other year than the first and last year. To get in Springfield University students will need the best grades and motivation

          • Studies
    Students can follow a wide variety of studies at Springfield, of which all include a lot of colleges and work you have to do on your own. The students we follow follow either of the courses on this list. Most of those studies include some kind of separation in the higher years.

    If you have read all this, please add 'Name' to you character sheet for this RPG. The 'name' has to include a name as well as a surname, and would be preferred to also have an cited meaning, origin and pronouncement. Nicknames and the reason your character has that name are also optional, but would be nice.
          • Dorms
    Springfield University has a roomie plan, which means that at the beginning of your first year, you get paired up with someone else from your own gender, and you guys will have to share a dorm room for your coming years. Your dorm includes two one-person beds which you can set to almost any height and can also pair up, two desk, two closets, two chairs, two nightstand and two dressers. You are allowed to move your furniture around in any way you like, but it has to stay in your room. Cleaning your room is your own responsibility. Boys and Girls are not allowed to be in each others dorm room while the door being closed and not allowed in at any time between 19.00 and 7.00. The dorms are checked every evening so there is no way of students sneaking in or out. In the evening there's a patrol at the doors, except between 1.00 and 4.00, but there still is an alarm on the building. The list of roommates will be made at the opening of the writing topic with a randomizer.
    If you have read all this, please add 'Age' to you character sheet for this RPG. This has to include a birthdate– but no year! and the age your character is at the start of the new school year. Astrological signs are optional, but would be nice.
          • Sports
    Sports are high-valued at Springfield University, though not a must. Athletes are well-known and most of them are populair. The cheerleading and football team are above all, most valued and most populair. The selection process for those includes a lot of work, and the only person secure of their place of the team another year is the person who was captain.

    The year is split into three trimesters. At the end of your last trimester, you'll have an exam to determine whether you can go on to your next year. The other trimesters end with a big test, that counts 20% or that years exam, which counts 15% on your graduation exam. Students are allowed to get three tests pro subject every trimester, and two essays.The grading goes on a percentage-scale. This percentage builds up, so at the end of your year you could reach a maximum of 1800%, though no one ever was able to reach that.
    If you have read all this, please add 'Appearance' to you character sheet for this RPG. You have to include the basic things, but it's important to mention a height (using centimeters, not inches!) and have a faceclaim.

    RPG Rules

    • Posts are at least 200 words.
    • Post regularly.
    • Be nice to each other.
    • Posts are in English only! OOC is allowed in Dutch.
    • Make a full post, meaning a picture, a name, your post and the study of your character
    • 16+ is allowed, but warn in the top of you post in red so people who don't want to read it don't have to.
    • Quizlet house rules.
    • Only Deamus and Anemoia make the topics, unless stated otherwise.
    • There's no character limit - but don't take more than you can handle.
    • When you want to reserve another character, please pay attention to the amount of boys and girls and keep that in mind when deciding on the gender. If there's a stop there's a stop. There is no wait-list, so first the first to actually claim the role gets it.
    • You only have to write English in your Character Sheet and in the Writing topic.
    • If you aren't writing with fun anymore, you can quit the RPG but not before you write a post where your character leaves the conversation/gets send off to another school/etc.
    • Read the whole topic!

    This RPG has been opened before, but I decided to open it with two others again. I'm sorry if you participated in the last one and want your old role back, because I want new, fresh roles that haven't been used before. Some things also might have changed between the last one and this one.

    Ik vind het heel eerlijk gezegd niet heel hard nodig. Een gigantische lijst met eigenschappen is vaak nog duidelijker dan zes eigenschappen die uitgeschreven zijn, in my opinion.


    Nah joh. Dan doen we dat toch niet. Sorry hoor maar uit een lijst vol met 30 eigenschappen pik je niet zomaar de dominante eigenschappen, en daarnaast is het zo dat als he er zes uitschrijft, er al meerdere dingen in genoemd worden dan precies die zes. Je krijgt er een reden etc voor. Maar goed. Ik zal het wel uit de beginpost halen als anderen enorme lijst duidelijker vinden.

    Niet om mensen af te vallen of wat dan ook, maar persoonlijk vind ik een onderbouwing fijner, want dan weet je welke eigenschappen dominant zijn, en zeker als dyslect vind ik een eindeloze lijst woorden een stuk onleesbaarder dan een verhaaltje


    Bowties were never Cooler

    Dat mag, maar ik vind niet dat het een verplichting moet worden



    daarnaast vind ik het ook jammer dat ik niets hierover heb kunnen zeggen van tevoren terwijl er ook niks in het overlegverhaal staat, girls, what's up with that?


    Spinning around, I'm weightless.

    Maar er zijn toch zat RPG's waarbij er staat dat je t uit moet schrijven?


    Bowties were never Cooler

    Eh well since you weren't responding and hadn't een online for a couple of days... But whatever.

    Er staat letterlijk niks in het verhaal en jullie hebben ook niet echt geprobeerd me te bereiken. Zonder mij was hij nooit heropend dus ik vind dit echt een keiharde naaistreek.

    ELZA DELILAH MORROW


          Name
    Elza — joyful
    Delilah — delicate

          Age
    19 • 13/3 • pisces

          Study
    Science. She has always been very interested in the laws of science and physics. This is an interest she has in common with her father, who is a scientist.



          Character
    Elza is a very straightforward girl, who is pretty stuffed on the bullshit. She detests liars and, naturally, values honesty. She grew up in a safe and loving environment so she never really had to keep any secrets, something she has a few difficulties with now.
          Elza isn’t afraid to speak her mind and always does so, even when nobody asks for it. She pretends to be more confident than she really is. The one thing she’s the most insecure about is the fact that she can’t hear as good as normal people do. She suffers from severe hearloss and has to use hearing aids in order to have normal conversations. This is why she never wears her hair in a braid or in a ponytail, she hates it when people find out about it because they always start to threat her differently.

          Elza is in fact, a genius. At a young age she would read her dads’ science books and ask serious questions about them. Her father was very impressed and gave her some exercises she could make. She has always been interested in science and so she decided at an early age that she wanted to study science. Her parents always supported her. Because she is so smart —and not only in science— some people think she is a know-it-all, and she used to get bullied for this. This didn’t have a big impact on her because the bullying, luckily, didn’t last very long.

          Elza can come off as rude sometimes but she not always intends to. She is rather social actually. She likes to be with her friends and family and goes to a lot of parties. She thinks of herself as a simple soul; she doesn’t need a lot to be happy. She’s also impatient and stubborn, which can be very annoying, but everyone has their bad sides. When someone else annoys her she mostly says it right to their face, as she sincerely thinks that’s the best thing to do.

          Elza is not really good at flirting and rather has someone who says directly to her face what he wants from her. This way, it’s easier to get something from her, as she detests flirting. Though she’s not good at it, she can be quite charming – a character trait she shares with her mother.

          Appearance
    Elza has European roots but you can’t really see that. She has straight, brown hair, which reaches her shoulders, and her eyebrows are a few shades darker than her hair. They’re arched and she’s actually quite happy with them. Her skin forms a beautiful contrast with her light green eyes. If you look close enough you can find some amber coloured spots in them. Her nose is nothing special, it fits her face exactly, and her lips have a light red shade. She highlights her cheekbones with make–up and she already has a sharp jawline.

          Elza likes to keep it natural but she does use make–up. Some mascara, foundation and blush. When she attends a special event she’ll use more make–up than normal but she knows her limits. She also likes to combine her clothes with accesoires such as necklaces, bracelet, rings and watches. Her closet mostly consists of black, white, dark purple and dark red coloured clothes. She hates bright colours so you’ll never see her wear any pink or yellow clothes.

          Elza has a height of 5.7 feet (175CM) and is pretty happy with that. She has a slim built with big hips and long legs. She’s not strong at all and you can easily push her aside.
    She walks in a way you immediatly know she used to be a ballerina; graceful and confident. She is, however, very clumsy and still runs and trips over things and people. Sometimes even her own feet.

          Family
    • Father: Samuel Finch Morrow
    • Mother: Clary Laurel Morrow
    • Brother: Miles Nicolas Morrow
    • Little sister: Rosie Angelina Morrow


          History
    Elza grew up in a busy street in New York. She had a good childhood — her insecurities aside, and has a good bond with everyone in her family. Especially her little sister, Rosie, who is completely deaf. The only way they can communicate with her is through sign language and that’s why everyone in her family masters it.

          Relationships
    Christopher Aurelian Narcisse Ainsworth — Elza sees him as a good friend but has a weak spot for him.

    Met Celine, ja, niet met mij. We zouden hem met z'n drieën openen. Als ik dan zo lang niet online ben is het misschien een idee om eens een berichtje te sturen, want goh, misschien is m'n telefoon wel kapot.

    Just so* you know... En ja doe maar, dan heropen ik en hou ik lekker geen rekening met jullie, goed? Kijken of je dat leuk vindt.
    En the fuck maakt dat uit? Fact is dat je het gewoon niet hebt geprobeerd, en dat is echt een ongelooflijke kutstreek.
