Title: Excelius (sequel): Beginnings.
Description: The New and The Old, blended into one.


Apocalyptic-V - May 11, 2008 12:41 AM (GMT)
The room was dense with students, all chattering excitedly. They had just finished testing, and knew their scores... The worst was behind them. Now it was time for orientation.
Some had been at the school for a few years, others never before. It was a time of excitement and fear and Nimara viewed their faces and smiled. She loved the beginning of the year. It was a fresh start, so full of promise.
She stood slowly, from the chair on the stage amongst her colleagues and addressed the room.
"Welcome students, to the New Excelius."

The large round room was thick with people. All Ex-Teachers from the Old Excelius school, the school was now run again by old students from it. And new teachers were being picked for the New School.
Two Schools.
Two Paths.
One new, One old. And the Old with secrets of the past clinging to its walls. This was the Board, the Council. They were here to decide the teachers and the fate of the new school and the old.
-------------------------------------------------
This rp will take place in the middle ages. It is a school to train warriors. In a time when the veil between the underworld and our world is thin, we must train the next generation to protect our lands.

The students, upon applying all take three tests to assign them to a certain specialty. These tests are:

Test of arrows- This is a major test on your ability to move quickly, the importance of the test is to catch as many of the blunt arrows that are shot from the bow (majorly important for thieves, minor to warriors)

Test of academics- tests your intelligence, it is very important for mages and mechanics (scale of 0-200, 200 being the best)

Test of Ingenuity- tests your ability to solve problems and build things, important for the mechanic (on a scale of one to ten, ten being the best)

-------------------------------------------
THE SPECIALTIES

Mechanics
1. armorers
- those who wish to go into the art of making armor. must be good with their hands and willing to labor hard hours. not for the faint of heart.
2. weapons specialists
- those who wish to guild swords, lances, chemical weaponry, etc.

Thieves
1. thief
- those who wish to do special operation for thieve guilds or the king (spies)

Warriors

---------------------------------------
Then each student takes an Extra Class...

Stranghill Olganis - May 11, 2008 01:46 AM (GMT)
Name: Stranghill Olganis
Age: 38
Gender: Male
Appearance: http://www.path-of-radiance.info/images/dl/volke.jpg

Short-Bio: Stranghill comes from a Thief and Cleric lineage. His grandmother was a cleric, and his mother is a cleric. His Grandfather was a thief, and his father was a thief. His grandmother and grandfather taught him the technicalities of each. Of course, Stranghill spent more time with his grandfather, as he aspired to be a world famous thief. But he did value his grandmother's knowledge. His mother and father taught him the physical examples. They practiced with him and did demonstrations. However, as time went on they became less and less able to teach him well. Finally, they decided to send him to the academy, and he agreed.

After Stranghill's time at the school, he left and, despite the drama he had with the females of the school, met a female cleric named Arraya. They fell in love, married and had a child. Stranghill named the child Salster Olganis. Stranghill later returned to the school, one of his old classmates, whom he had conflicts with in the past, was the new stealth teacher. Stranghill offered to serve as a substitute when the need arose, and one other task.

Stranghill knew that Excelcius never had the history of being the safest of places, and offered to serve as additional security when needed, and serve as a spy, thief, or assassin if it was imperative to the school's safety. He also wanted to spend time with his son.

Minor Info: Stranghill is very calm and collected, and he never really seems to become affected by anything, but his wife knows that he can be affected by very personal things. He has a deep sense of honor and respect for his parents, who are quite old now, and his grandparents, who have passed. He also has a powerful sense of loyalty and honor in general. He is very confident in his skills as a spy, thief, and assassin, but knows his limits.
Student or teacher(if teacher which one): Substitute Espionage/Stealth teacher.

Character 2:

Name: Salster Olganis
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Appearance: http://www.night-blade.com/images/screensh...ThiefRender.jpg
Score on test of arrows (max 15)-15
score on test of academics (max 200)-179
Score on test of ingenuity (max 10)-5
extra class-Archery
Short Bio: Salster was trained by Stranghill, Arraya, Stranghill's mother, and Stranghill's father as soon as possible, in a similar manner to the way Stranghill himself had been trained. However, Stranghill trained Salster specifically for Excelcius and its tests, so that he could do better than Stranghill did (Stranghill's Results: 14, 173, 4). It paid off, and Salster did better than Stranghill did on all the tests, but barely. Stranghill decided to train Salster in the art of dagger-use himself, instead of sending him to swordsmanship class, and instead have him take archery class to better his marksmanship. Salster, technically, had the right to choose whatever he wanted, but he and Stranghill both wanted him to take archery, and learn dagger-use instead of swordsmanship.

Salster is aware of his family tradition, and can only assume that he will fall to the same fate.

http://porrie.deviantart.com/art/Karma-Brothers-1-38107223

Short-Bio:Darrius was once a human, and a powerful sorceror who had trained at excelsius. Then one day, the one he loved got injured in battle, and Darrius found in horror that he did not have enough magic to save her. SSo, as a last result, he sacrificed his life and soul, to become a lich in order to gain the power neccesary to save his lover. Yet, he was too late. She had died, and ever since he has been trapped as a creature of the undead, hated by all those who know his secret. Lich's are evil creatures, yet Darrius is not. He was allowed by Jesibell to teach strategy to the students, not allowed to use weapons of any sort, so long as he hid what he was. After a few years of this, he fell in love with Jesibell, but lamented that she could never love him back. Now he is a council member, much to the dismay of some of the other ex-teachers. He tends to be unfriendly, yet a realist.

Student or teacher(if teacher which one):Council member of the new excelsius, ex-strategy teacher.
