Kylie's stance softened as Namika revealed she was also a Keeper. Her eyes relaxed, and she sighed. "I'm beginning to learn that," she mentioned in a light tone, referring to the speak of other species. "You're another Keeper, huh? Does it get better than this? Because this...this is awful. I'm regretting the choice I made." Not that it was much of a choice...life or death, where was the real option? Of course, she knew this fellow Keeper had at one point had to make that choice- and win over that same 'Gifter' lady, likely, that Kylie herself had been forced to- and that very likely had been the scariest moment of her life. But did she have to go through the same things as Kylie? She seemed awfully free...
(Omg North! It's awesome! You're perfect for this Rp and totally accepted as a Helper! We're glad to have you! Do you have any questions?? Yes he can have a cat if he sneaks it in! It would be interesting Rp lol. Since he's third year he could have found it over the summer and just didn't want to give it up lol)

(Oh hey Turtle I was wondering how the years work as a keeper? Like... do they follow the same grade scale as the gifted or are they separate. (e.g. if a keeper is 16 but it's their first year there, are they placed in the second year, or in the first?)) {I had the same question xd}

(Hey Mid! That's a good question. Since the Gifted don't have to be there all the years I'm going to say they still follow the same grade as their age, even if it's their first year Just one sec and I'll do more replies )

Is anyone open to rp?
Turtle, what is the relationship between a student keeper and student gifted suppose to be like? Are the keepers assigned to the gifted or do they choose who they protect?)

Namaki's gaze prickled apprehensively, she scratched the back of her head to think for a moment before speaking. "Why would you regret it? You would of been killed if you didn't accept the role as a keeper!" She calmed down a little and tried not to overreact to things so she would startle the keeper. She assumed Kylie had been kept in confinement, she definitely looked like it. "Well, I guess it does get better. But that's my opinion, learning to battle is like a dream. They never let me do that back home..." She broke off as she mentioned her home. Of course she loved battling, but suddenly not being able to see or make contact with her family is slightly heart-breaking. "Honestly, I probably would've been killed if it wasn't Ayla trying to convince the Gofter to keep me alive," Namika finished with a slight grin.
(Om that was so nice to read North ^^)

(You're scratching Sorren? Lol why? Are they literally the same character you all shared? Lol!
So IF they have a Gifted friend- which probably only half or so do- it's usually the person that they learned about Gifted from. Someone who cares about them and their wellbeing, or at least their family does. Like with Namika and Ayla. They sometimes live with the Gifted family during the summers, or they may simply be sent to a council safehouse or even the headquarters. They don't have to be best friends, but a lot of times are. Many other Gifted may have had a human friend who learned of the Gifted world, and was not accepted as a Keeper, therefore killed, which they may be very upset about. Those that don't have a Gifted friend, when first starting out, are usually put under awful conditions like the boat, up to a few months even. Whether this is on purpose or just because there's not many other options will be discovered in the Rp.
Just let me know when you've got your other characters Nirth and you can jump in the Rp!)
Rowan caught sight of Roxy staring at him, tilting his head as he considered her. Cute, for sure. Maybe missing some of the curves he was usually interested in. Of course, he figured his options for friends/romantic interests were limited her. Perhaps he could get over that...depending on her species. He began to head over to her, gritting his teeth from the pain he was in. First, to get information. That's what he had always been taught, to make sense of where you were and get in a good place, before focusing on yourself.
---
Kylie shrugged further looking around. "Battle? You mean that crazy fighting stuff they had me do? Ugh, no thanks, seems insane," she mentioned, not making eye contact with Namika. "Are there...other Keepers here?"

(And remember not all Keepers- even new Keepers- are actually going to the school. Only certain ones are sent there, the rest in 'regular' training, as has been done for centuries. This school is an experiment of sorts, run by the Gifter, and many of the Council and other Gifted are not happy about it, not believing it will work, or that it is safe)

{I'd love to be a helper of this thread. Absolutely blown away by the amount of thought put into this and I'm excited to hopefully join. Unfortunately I have to be on my way to a work orientation soon, but for now I just thought I'd express my interest and copy & paste some stuff below as WIPs. c: }
Mickey 'Mick' Archibald, Keeper male | 16 [FACE CLAIM] Most people who come across Mick normally see what everyone else does-- a 6'0" auburn-haired teen with semi-bushy eyebrows and a wide set of freckles that dot the top of his cheeks and the bridge of his nose. His jaw is sharp and leads down to his small, square chin. Once getting him to smile, he often shows his gorgeous set of pearly whites and his set of pale pink lips are normally curved into a goofy crooked smile. His skin is slightly tanned and covered in freckles that spread out along his wide-set shoulders, muscular arms, and chest. His whole body is athletically toned and while he does have the start to a 6-pack, he doesn't get to working out much other than jogging long distances to clear his head and the occasional gym visit to burn off some steam. Although Mick has a big set of hands and feet, he remains gentle to the touch and wears either a nice sweater and shorts or a dark t shirt and jeans paired with either Timberland boots or boat shoes. Mick is mainly a very caring person, taking others' emotions into effect and constantly trying to please everyone (which happens to be a flaw in the long run) by at least setting a smile on their face after talking with him. He's a very nice friend for the most art, always offering to share his food and being a helpful ear to give advice, but something Mick struggles with is setting his priorities. While he wishes to say "bros before hoes," he has a pattern of focusing on his romantic relationships more so than his friendships. For that reason, Mick can be easily taken advantage of and therefore hopes that as a keeper he can work on some of the things that make him.. well, human. On top of it all, Mick is exceptionally brave and lovable for his compassion to others, romantically or not. Mick is a third year student with just about little to almost no knowledge of the mysteries at Evermore, but after an ordinary jog through a nature trail turned into a run-in with one of the gifted, he's bound to find out what makes him special enough to live on and protect one of them. Mick currently sits as pansexual, meaning he doesn't necessarily have a gender preference and like people in general, regardless of who they are. He very recently crossed a kitten on the school's campus and has the little cutie hidden until he finds a safe spot for it and gives it a name. [ northernskies ] Other: I have liked the first post. Role You Want: Helper
Luca (last name tbd) [WIP] - future teacher :3
Spencer Sandings, Siren female | 15 [FACE CLAIM] Spencer stands just above an average height at about 5'7" with a small yet well-fitted frame. She has a slight curve to her figure around the hip but she does not tend to flaunt it unless she wants something. Her hair is a brilliant bright shade of blond (somewhat of an off-white in bright lighting) chopped above her shoulder blades and normally held down straight or wavy; otherwise in a small messy bun. Her lips are fairly plump to a good size and typically hold a coat of lip gloss over the top while her cheeks remain bare of any natural markings or makeup. Her nose is slightly pointed up but is still small enough to fit her face shape naturally, giving a small and gentle touch to her expression. Her eyebrows are slightly arched yet simple enough to not shy any attention away from her wonderful set of sparkling hazel eyes. As for makeup, she tends to only wear a layer of mascara and eyeliner, although she sometimes likes to add a brown palette of eyeshadow or even a bit of highlight to make her face look brighter. Her skin itself is not too tanned other than being a bit sun-kissed but remains athletically toned with long legs and dainty hands/feet. To top it all off, her wide smile and childish laugh show off her naturally straight, white teeth along with her small set of dimples. - Spencer is a very positive yet complicated human being. She makes it her will to overcome her obstacles but doesn't like to share her problems with others. She's extremely competitive when it comes to sports and is not afraid to stand up for anything she believes in, but likes to push away her thoughts with music at times when she's stressed. For the most part she has a relaxed vibe to her, but if she ever gets into an argument or is double-crossed she can be dangerous to mess with. She can also act very playful and likes to tease & play hard to get while flirting. She's a bit snobbish at times but she puts up a tough side so she's not vulnerable to others. All in all, she admits she's an all-around imperfect person with a bit of a fiery edge and strong heart.
[northernskies]
Sorren Kellis, Elemental (Weather) male | 18 [FACE CLAIM] Such precision and fine body structure can only belong to one such individual, and that is of Sorren Kellis. Many despise his very nature, but only due to his seemingly-perfect appearance -- although with the kind of money this boy has, who could expect anything less? His long, medium blond quiff falls victim to the precise action of running a single rough hand through it throughout the day and yet remains in perfect care and condition. His eyes are a simple yet utterly impeccable shade of grey-blue paired with long eyelashes and perfectly arched brows above. His nose is slightly pointed out and matches to that of his angular chin and square jaw. For the most part, Sorren likes to remain classy with expensive sweaters and flannels fitted over his strong arms and wide-set shoulders. Due to his occasional gym visits, much of his body muscle is visible in his arms, stomach, and calves, and it wouldn’t be much of a surprise to see him out jogging early in the morning when the sun just begins to peak above the earth. Although he has no trouble wooing others over his muscular structure, what most people tend to notice first is his smile. With teeth so straight and pearly white (thanks to a few whitening treatments), it’s hard to imagine him drinking as much coffee as he truly does. The only part of Sorren’s body he is not comfortable showing off is his back, in which holds a daringly large tattoo, though no one else has ever been allowed to ask to see it, let alone what it means. Due to poor circulation, Sorren often finds in the cold and bitter weather that his hands and feet start to turn all sorts of purple and blue shades, but only if they are not properly heated under multiple layers. His ears are not pierced, nor in any other location that may suggest a “rebellious” sense of style, although that is much contrary to what anyone else would tell of his behavior. While trying to hold up a classy wardrobe, Sorren often tries to accomplish acting the same way -- but only in front of people he needs to impress. To the public eye, he is a smart and tactical person, always finding innovative ideas and wise approaches to challenging situations; when he finds himself alone or among ‘common folk,’ his mind is not necessarily in the same place. Sorren can be quite actually immature and selfish, but to his relief no one seems to think it’s worth yapping about. Around his friends, he enjoys feeling a bit more laid back and even flirtatious to flatter other women, but inside.. He’s a pure and whole-heartedly hopeless romantic. In his spare time, Sorren likes to read a wide range of genres and finds himself picturing a much more simply-led life. Often times you may find him with his nose caught in such books or deep in thought. Not many like to approach him other than his long-time friends since all most people can do is simply sit back and stare in either awe or the occasional eye roll. For those who once in a blue moon decide to get to know this young individual, he can only open up a series of more questions. Kind. Gentle. Brave; incredibly sweet. But what for? What makes him so hard to trust yet also make people want to pour their heart out to him? What would this man even be without his money?

(How about Ayla? XD Theres probably going to be some conversation between them two and Rowan now as I see XD)
Ayla was busy studying the new keepers walking off the boat when she noticed a flicker of movement in the corner of her eye. She grinned playfully and quickly shifted into a mouse, scampering over to Roxy without the other student noticing. She shifted back to her original form and her expression widened to a smile. "Hey Roxy!" The shifter greeted cheerfully behind the student to surprise them. She was half bouncing on her toes.
Namaki giggled in amusement, "Don't be ridiculous. Battling's fun! If you want during battle training you can practice against me?" She smiled but then looked around for the source of Kylies next question. "There's a few, but there are going to be more now since all of you are coming here."

(Hey Novi! Omg just jump in- ask if you need help- and someone will throw their charries in! Yes the three, plus more? That will be fun! Awesome North! Do you need help jumping in or do you have any questions? Otherwise throw your charrie in and I'll come up with a response yeah sure! Who is his paired Gifted? From your starter post it seemed like they were a Pyro? Are you going to make them and they're at school too?) Rowan raised an eyebrow, watching as this girl butted in before he could reach Roxy. Clearly they knew each other, though possibly just as aquintences. Either way, that meant it was likely they had been to this school together before...He caught sight of Ayla's changing eye color, and stepped back. His lips curled into almost a snarl. Shifter... --- Kylie's eyes were brighter as she became used to the sun. "Training? Uh, I...I don't know," she admitted, but was cut off as she saw a figure in the distance, heading through the marsh towards the dock and the group of people. As the person got closer, she recognized her; the Gifter.

Lol, okay. ) A short, but terrified scream escaped Roxy's mouth as she felt someone pulling on her from behind and calling her name. Instantly covering her lips with a pale hand and fearfully looking over her shoulder, the young weather student couldn't believe she had gotten scared over Ayla's quirky surprise. Her emerassment was apparent on her flushed rosy cheeks as she began to chuckle a bit. She gave Ayla a kind smile while trying to laugh the awkward gazes and attention away. "You scared me, Ayla!" Roxy giggled while she playfully teasing the shifter, a hint of daring wildness rung deep in her high tone. "So, what are you up to? Just watching this parade like everyone else?" Roxy wasn't one to normally pick at others, but she did feel the gifted were a bit too captivated by the new arrivals.

((Planning on it. XD))
Mhara was currently in the ocean, having watched the ships arrive and stayed out of the way for the most part. She hesitated for a moment, knowing that she really should go join the others before she steeled herself and pushed herself up onto the sand of the beach. She had arrived a little bit ago and she kept her seal coat clutched tightly around her shoulders, even as she focused on shifting her tail into a pair of legs.
Fayne hung back, regarding everyone with stern amber eyes, sharp and untrusting. The ravenette didn't stand particularly close to anyone, nor did he seem interested in getting too close to anyone at the moment, just watching silently and calculating. He wasn't too sure what sort of gift everyone else had, but he could certainly pick out the Keepers by body language and scent. His lip curled in disgust at the mix of far too many different scents, it was the same every year, yet he was still forced to attempt to socialize in case there were others of his pack or members of different packs to greet.

Namika opened her mouth to try and convince Kylie on how great battling is when she noticed the keeper's gaze shift to somehting in the distance. She squinted to get a better look at the figure on the marsh. Namika's eyes widened, "Its the Gifter! That must mean school might start soon!"
--
Ayla was a bit surprised by Roxy's sudden screech. Obviously the shifter wasn't expecting that kind of reaction to come from the other student. She quickly shrugged it off with a goofy smile, "sorry about that. I just want to have a more exciting approach than just strolling over and saying hello." She replied with amusement brimming her tone. "Anyways that's what i was going to ask about. Why didn't you come over to check out the new students? You seem almost out of the crowd as though you don't want to socalise with them.."
(Oo is that a bit of conflict i see in rowans post? And why do i keep having the temptation to write Rowanstar XD)

(Ok! No that sounds good to me! I actually want to make the Pyro, I'll do it! I'm on my phone tho so I can't just yet. My thoughts on it though would be they're not super close yet; I want her to be a girl, if that's ok, and she hates herself for giving away what she is, and was scared he would be killed, so she avoids him. He stays in safe houses during the summer ok? If this isn't what you had in mind let me know!
Omg I haven't made my Selkie or were yet! Ugh lol have to work on that. For now maybe Fayne and...Anastasia ?
Lol yes for sure, Lost)
Anastasia was watching from the back of the group; not because she wasn't interested, wasn't willing to socialize with these new Keepers...but because she needed to watch. It was the best way for her to understand. She looked on in disgust hating the way she knew many of the Keepers were initially treated- almost to see if they were worthy enough?- trying to get a better view. In the process of that she knocked into a huge boy- a Werewolf, she was sure from his size and stature, not to mention she vaguely remembered seeing him, though she mostly stayed clear of the Weres, intimidated by them, especially since they always called her and her kind 'know-it-alls.'
---
Take what you must, Rowan briefly reminded himself, quickly continuing forward, putting on a kind face- however fake it truly was. "Excuse me," he said to the girls, but his attention was mostly directed at Roxy. "How do we get to the barracks?" he questioned them with a friendly smirk.

Post by 🌿 Loѕтмoon 🌿 on Jun 26, 2017 16:22:54 GMT -5
"The barracks?" Ayla repeated, suddenly disappearing deep into her thoughts. Why does this new person want to go to the barracks all of a sudden? She wanted to pop up and greet the persona nd introduce herself but she waited for Roxy to respond first. The shifter could clearly tell that Rowan's expression was clearly focused on Roxy more. I wonder why...
--
"What's your name by the way?" Namika popped the question almost out of nowhere as they were glancing over to where the Gifter stood. "I'm Namika," Her expression was light and soft.
(Hmm i wonder why he is so off about the shifters XD)

I'll be slow on my replies here due to trying to rp on Crystalclan. XD
Soooo. Does that mean Kate and Roxy are a pair? I kind of want Kate to pair with another gifted to make the rp a bit more interesting, but Kate and Roxy have history together..)
Roxy simply shrugged in response to Ayla while maintaining her soft grin for her friend. "I'll have time to check them out when school starts. No point in wasting time here, though.." Once she had finished, Roxy was caught by Rowan's question and she obviously hadn't seen his distaste before. "Oh.. Um. If you head over to the Main Building of the island, you'll find most of the dorms there." She glanced back to the large building and pointed over at it. "Right there is the main building! Hopefully that helps." She gave Rowan a quick smile before glancing over at Ayla.

Kylie sighed once again. She wasn't too excited about that prospect...she wanted to go back to her old school. You know, full of normal human beings...besides, she didn't have very good or fond memories of the Gifter. Especially not as she begged for her life.
The Gifter was heading towards the group, an emotionless frown on her face as she stared down at the students, many of them knowing very well that they were in trouble as she arrived, for gathering at the docks off the main campus around the new Keepers. And those that didn't? Well they soon would.
---
Rowan sighed at Ayla, finding her to be dense. "The sleeping quarters? You know, beds and what not?" he demanded, nodding gratefully at Roxy as she pointed the way. "Wonderful. We should go, yes?" he motioned, expecting her to travel with him.
(What do you mean by pair? Pair is simply whoever they learned of Gifted from. Most Keepers won't even know who their pair really is- most Gifted, if their identity is discovered, take off. They don't have to have a lot to do with one another, but they can. It's up to you how that connection exists, if at all.)
