Transformation

Faceclaim: Just some art

History:
The truth about Luna’s birth is sketchy at best. She remembers parents but nothing about their builds or faces. She remembers having a home but not how she left it. Either way by the time she came to real sentience she was living alone in a forest, hunting things on her hands and knees to survive, barely scraping by. That was when a young boy named Hector found her. The child lived with his family deep in the forest in an old log cabin. His father was an Arborist who was tasked with keeping tabs on the health and longevity of the forest. And his mom was a writer. With both parents busy day in and out Hector found himself wandering the forests alone rather often. He came upon the girl starving and wounded. She was a sight many would run at. Her feral nature was evident to see and she spoke no language the boy knew. She grunted and growled at him and generally tried to look menacing, baring her fangs and her claws. But Hector was a kind boy and so he reached out and offered her some of his lunch and it was a done deal from there.

Luna immediately adhered to the boy like glue and the two became deeply close friends. It was Hector who gave her the name Luna in the first place and from there the pair were bonded and became inseparable. The boy became like her brother who taught her many things and Luna filled his formerly boring days with cheer. One of the topics he taught her was about his favourite subject, super heroes. With not much to do out in the forest the one thing his parents brought him from town every now and then was comics. Every time both the children would eagerly await their parents return and immediately grab the books from Hector’s Mom before she could even make it to the house. They’d lay on the floor in front of the fireplace and the two would act out the scenes in the books. Luna didn’t always remember to be careful with her strength at times, often breaking things in the house and generally just being a ruckus. But with Hector she was always gentle. The boy was ecstatic when Luna continued to develop into their adolescence and eventually teenage years and her powers began to blossom. He told she had to be a hero and Luna felt herself wanting to live up to those expectations. And she would get her chance soon enough.

The duo had decided long ago that they would share Hector’s birthday considering Luna’s was a mystery. And so on the day of their 18th birthday right as they were about to blow out the candles a large explosion rocked the skies above their small quaint forest. They rushed from the home to see Superman and a villain both fighting in the skies. Their fight was chaotic and it began spiraling towards the small town the family lived outside of. With zero time to think and an inspiring speech by Hector followed by a slap on the back she was off. Luna bounded through the forest towards the town at many times the speed of her family. When she arrived she wanted to join the fight, Superman however directed her to simply evacuate the townspeople instead. When meeting your idols many things can occur but the one thing that is always true, is that you’ll do whatever they say.

Every single townsperson survived that day and Superman himself thanked Luna for her assistance. With their town decimated alongside most of the forest the community had a lot of rebuilding to do. However all of them, as well as Hector and Luna’s family all urged Luna to take the offer that Superman extended to her that day to attend Wayne Academy. Luna agreed, with only one stipulation. She refused to go unless Hector followed her to the city. And so with Hector enrolled in a more mundane College within Gotham Luna took her deserved place at Wayne Academy.

Personality:
Luna has a bubbly and excitable personality. She chases her emotions and pursues them like crazy until immediately bounding off to the next thing that caught her interest. This can be a little chaotic for some people but she’s almost always smiling and having a good time. She’s very naive and gullible but also exceedingly curious and eager to learn. She has an endless interest in making friends and isn’t fully up on the difference between friendship and romance. She’s touchy and possessive and takes even light threats to those she loves very seriously. She’s very forgetful and scatterbrained so keeping her on task is difficult but if you’re able to keep her focussed she’s the most determined person there is. She has an incredible infatuation with heroes and hero culture in general and holds the idea as monolithic and idealistic. She wants to become like her idols and save people but she unfortunately has to learn how to understand them first. She loves to tell stories even if they tend to drag on and get a little bit winding. Her sense of justice is strong however and her heart is golden.

Powers:

• Wolf-like Physiology
• Superhuman Strength, Speed, Stamina, Agility, Durability, and Dexterity
• Incredibly attuned Superhuman Senses, even more than those of most powered individuals
• Razor sharp Claws and Teeth which she can regrow
• She also has the ability to communicate with other canines although no ability to control them
• Luna has also recently developed an ability to increase her primal nature and transform into an almost werewolf-like form. All of her powers as well as her senses are increased considerably in potency during this transformation and more specifically her durability increases tremendously. She has a hard time controlling herself during it however and often finds her animalistic whims to be much stronger.

Special Qualities: 
Super Hero Junkie: Luna has an incredibly strong sense of justice and dedication to helping people. She wants nothing more than to be the next Superman and be hailed as a hero. Both to sate her own dream and to earn the praise of her brother. She will never falter in things like daily training and studying in her classes, even if she doesn't fully grasp the idea of a class just yet. Additionally praise from other hero hopefuls is not exactly what she wants but even more desired by her than that of the general populace and she has a drive to earn it. She might be misguided at times but she wants people's admiration so adamantly she can perform incredible feats to get it.

Abilities:
Hunter: Alongside her incredibly high natural senses Luna is a trained hunter. She spent a lot of time catching dinner for their family to cut down on food costs in the household and it shows. Her skills are not only the result of her innate abilities but of years of training. She is in tune with natural environments and knows how to read them. This extends to a deep knowledge of herbs and other natural edible plants. She also knows what flora to avoid when in the woods. She finds a lack of use for these abilities while in the city and with her meals prepared for her every day but she finds time to escape out into the wilderness from time to time. She is also a very good fisherman, although she seldom uses a rod.

Hero Nerd: Luna is completely obsessed with heroes, specifically those in the Justice League as it was the comic she read the most often as a child. She has an insanely deep knowledge of the exploits of these characters to the point of encyclopedic. She will talk the ear off of anybody about them and is generally just a big dork about it. This does come in handy to her however as she uses this knowledge as the basis for her decision making. Whenever faced with a decision on how to handle a situation she often asks herself, “What would Superman do?” and then takes that path. Curiously enough this has served her well in the past especially when fighting baddies. (Fair warning I am not this person IRL so I will try my best to actually portray this well but just go with me pretty please.)

Special Equipment:
Luna doesn’t really have anything like this. Maybe something to explore?

Limitations/Weaknesses:
Luna is both weak to magical or energy based attacks. Besides this she’s also untrained and naive. She falls for feints, she doesn’t understand when she’s being led into a trap and she generally can be fooled very easily. Most importantly Luna struggles to tell friend from foe. To her, any person carrying a firearm is a bad guy and you better not be walking the streets on your way to the ski lodge in a mask because she’ll take you down too. Anything that is tropey and stupid that can be found in comics she believes as fact. Also chocolate : P

Also notably Luna's surrogate brother Hector is in fact in Gotham and a completely mundane human being. If someone wanted to get at Luna they could very easily target her brother instead. She'd basically completely fold if his life was in danger. She's impulsive but something different triggers in her brain when Hector is involved and would never even try to save him if it could risk his life. 

Ons & Offs: Besides my regular O/Os which I’ll still link here I’m looking to do a lot of pet play with Luna. She’s a bit wild and unkempt as she is now. Chaotic and excitable. I’d like it if she could be trained pretty heavily into being a good well behaved puppy. Throw a collar on her and leash her so she doesn't do something stupid. Domesticate the fuck out of her please.

Also uh I know I gave her an Anthro form but I’m not doing any sexy stuff with her in that form. It’s a part of her character but I have 0 interest in writing anything even closely related to smut involving it. Not that I won’t include it in normal scenes but yea I don’t do the deep furry stuff.

O/Os

Plot Seeds:

• I’d like to explore a scene where Luna comes upon a crime and tries to stop it but just ends up making things worse and another hero needs to step in to fix things.
• Another one is what the heck is happening with her and her transformation. It’s a new part of her powers that she hasn’t explored much.
• She currently lacks a hero name as well as some kind of costume. I’d love it if someone would be willing to help her with that kind of stuff. She has no idea how having an “image” works and so all of that would need to be explained to her.

[Mythril]

I can vouch for that. Discord is wonderful. The support from the other players for each other, plot creation, thread tracking. It's nothing short of amazing. Great organization and a wonderful cast of writers.

This game has been going on for a long time and is still going strong.

[rpguy37]

Name: Jas'n
Codename: Bluefire
Age: 18
Parents: Dick Grayson (Nightwing) and Princess Komand'r (Darkfire)
Species: Half Tamaranean Half Human
Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: Straight(-ish?)
Enrollment: Legacy
Appearance: Jas'n is 5'7" lean and muscular build, bright blue hair and matching eyes.  He has a smattering of tattoos on his shoulder and upper back in Tamaran that boast to his family line and their dominance in combat

Faceclaim: (Is AI generated OK?)

History: Jas'n is the spawn of a moment of weakness in Dick's early career.  He was raised on Tamaran in secret by his mother until recently dropped off at the school.  As part of the royal family on his homeworld he was spoiled and brought up knowing nothing but luxury.  His father didn't know of his existence and his mother couldn't be bothered raising him, so he's had a very lonely life. Taught the arts of manipulation and deceit, and lazy in developing his powers he was brought here in part because his mother didn't want to expend the resources on him and to develop his full potential. 

Personality:  Jas'n has never had any friends, raised by palace staff.  He's used to being alone with his thoughts, getting his way and having everything done for him.  The epitome of lazy and spoiled.  Deep down he craves some direction and a strong hand to guide him.

Powers: Being half Tamaranean he can absorb and control ultraviolet radiation, but to a lesser extent than his mother and Aunt.  When his abilities manifest he glows with a blue crackling energy and can fire blasts, perform feats of strength and is more resistant to damage than a normal human.  The full extent of his abilities have yet to be tested, as have feats of mastery like flight.

Special Qualities: He has trouble interacting socially, especially with those his own age, since his near isolation with older palace staff whom were his loyal servants.

Abilities: Jas'n is fluent in several cosmic languages, as well as highly advanced technology of Tamaran

Special Equipment: Tamaran power gauntlets that help him control his blue blasts.

Limitations/Weaknesses:  Very little control over his powers of confidence.  Limiting exposure to ultraviolet rays can render him powerless.

Ons & Offs: Jas'n has zero sexual experience. He secretly craves a strong woman to tell him what to do and show him all the wonderful pleasures of intimacy.  He's a closet sub, and perhaps has no idea.  He isn't attracted to men, but may curiously experiment with transfemales.  Secret turn ons include bondage, femdom, orgasm control/denial, CFNM

Plot Seeds: None at the moment

[Everlasting Starfall]

Name: Jeo Young-soo / 저영수
Codename: Emerald Eternal / The Eternal / The Eternal Emerald (and probably a few other variations of this).
Age: 200+
Species: Human
Gender: Male (can turn into female)
Sexual Orientation: Straight (when male), Lesbian (when female)
Enrollment: Staff (Medical)
Appearance: During the usage of his powers or strong emotions, his eyes might turn emerald, and emerald vines might appear like tattoos on his skin.
Faceclaim:
Male: Lee Joon-gi (이준기)
Female: Seo Yea-ji (서예지)




History:
Young-soo was born in the Great Joseon Dynasty (Nowadays Korea) in the early 1800’s. His family lived in a small isolated village in the deep forest. Everyone in the village worshiped the Eternal Tree — a big tree that was growing in the middle of a lake. It was said that The Eternal Tree Spirit could heal people, or in some very rare cases grant people abilities.

When a child in the village was five years old, they were presented to the tree and underwent a ceremony in the lake. If the Eternal Tree was going to grant any powers, it was now. Most people got nothing, some had smaller abilities for healing, or making barriers. There were stories about people getting healing or barrier powers that were much stronger, but that was years past.

Young-soo had his ceremony like every other child, but something different happened. When he entered the lake, the water started to turn an emerald green, with the origin coming from the Tree itself. Later they discovered that he had been granted strong abilities in both healing and barrier-making. Something that was a big boon for the whole village.

And so life went on. Young-soo would be the protector and healer of the village: against other animals, other humans, and disease. When he was around 25 years old, they noticed something else, however, he stopped aging. It seemed his own strong self-healing abilities had decided that he was in his prime and that his body growing older would just hurt him. At first both him and his family were overjoyed, but as the years went on it would seem more like a curse than something great. Young-soo outgrew everyone he knew, his family, his friends, and eventually his village.

With his village gone and everyone he once knew, he decided to leave the isolation and try to integrate into society. First in other villages, then in bigger towns and cities. He would make a living by pretending to be a doctor but often had to leave town once people figured out his abilities.

Over the years, and with more superheroes and supervillains popping up, he understood that he was not alone and that other people have power also, and have built somewhat of a reputation as a neutral party. He is often contracted for his healing abilities since they are strong, and as long as there is breath, there is life. But also for guarding and defense missions where his barriers can help. If the injury he is healing is very serious, it can take a big toll on him, making him bedridden in the most serious of cases.

Eventually, he traveled to the US, where he continued his work. During a meeting with some other supers, he got the question if he wanted to get a female body, and he agreed, mostly because he was curious. Once he was transformed he noticed that he had a new ability, he could change back and forth between his original male appearance and the female appearance he had first taken when he transformed into a female. Apparently, him transforming into a female had triggered something with his original powers.

He eventually met Batman and helped him out with a job. He later got contacted and asked if he wanted to work as the head of medical staff for the Wayne Academy, which he agreed to.


Personality: He is kind and helpful. Can come off as apathetic because of his age and not really knowing how to act. This is something he has gotten better with, however.


Powers:

Healing: He has very strong healing powers. As long as the person is alive, he can pretty much heal anything. This includes self-healing that is active at all times (unless he concentrates to repress it). His abilities pretty much keep his body in peak human physique.

Barriers: He can create strong barriers around himself or others. He needs to extend more effort to keep a barrier up that is being attacked.

Transformation: He can switch between a male and a female form. It is always the same two forms.

Abilities:

Languages: Korean, Japanese, Mandarin, Cantonese, French, Spanish, English.

Black belt in Taekwando, judo, jiu jutsu, Brazilian jiu jutsu, kendo, iaido.

Very good at finance.

Special Equipment:
Sizable wealth in at least the millions. People are not too sure, since he is a very private person.

He is owed favors from a dozen of supers that he has saved the lives of with his powers.

Limitations/Weaknesses: The more flesh he has to regrow when healing an injury, the more taxing it is. If he overuses his powers he might need to take some bedrest for a few days.

Hit his barriers enough and it will be too much of a strain on his mind. Overuse -> bedrest.

Ons & Offs: See signature.

[JackTheTipper]

Name:

Darren Waller

Codename:
Omni-Man "Hero of Tomorrow"

Age: 
25

Parents:
Amanda Waller x Test Tube

Species:

Meta-human

Gender:

He/Him

Sexual Orientation:
Heterosexual

Enrollment: Recruit

Appearance:

https://ibb.co/3S9psLz

(concept costume artwork)

Faceclaim: Trevante Rhodes

History: Darren Waller, otherwise known as "Omni-Man" is the collaborative effort to create a functionally ideal Supe complete with perfect evolutionary adaptive traits. He is named for and modeled after Amanda Waller's deceased son. He's completely organic and human, unlike Amazo. Rather, his DNA has a sequence which allows him to undergo a near instantaneous evolution of sorts. Embedded in his DNA is the code to replicate the DNA of nearly every hero in existence...potentially.

Darren spent his early life in an underground facility where he was "homeschooled". Amanda and Dr. Ivo wanted to learn from project Amazo so they didn't make the same mistakes. Project Pinocchio centered moreso on the personal and emotional developmental sides of what it takes to create a good Supe. Putting emphasis on the "man" part. As they grew more confident in his development, Darren was given more opportunities to engage with the real world. Hence his recruitment to Wayne Academy.

Personality: Despite the unusual circumstances of his birth Darren is a lot more well-adjusted than you would expect a guy to be with his upbringing, there's some underlying baggage here and there, but he seems mostly normal.

Powers: Darren possesses an Omni-matrix of abilities, he has perfect adaptive DNA which allows him to evolve into virtually anyone. His body undergoes a metamorphic process to adapt to become a carbon copy "match" of their ability, although with some limitations, at most he can only tap into about 80% of whoever he evolves into. He can't run as fast as the flash, He can't fight as good as wonder woman, and he won't be as powerful as superman. He also is very much human, which might be considered a limitation in of itself.

Special Qualities:

Darren's special quality could be considered his lack of bothered-ness, no matter the situation or outcome, he'll maintain composure. 

Abilities:  None so far.

Special Equipment: Darren has a smart watch which allows him to focus his perfect adaptive ability trait, it'sjust helpful compendium that gives him a working knowledge of the heroes he's come in contact with in the field.

Limitations/Weaknesses: Human. 80%

Ons & Offs: Haven't gotten around to that yet. Ask me if unsure.

Plot Seeds: Not sure, but open.

[Wyatt]

Name:  Tanis Eliades

Codename: Theristi (Reaper in English)

Age: 39

Parents Unknown

Species: Human/Psychopomp Goddess

Gender: Hermaphrodite

Sexual Orientation: Pansexual

Enrollment: Faculty (NPC):  Archery/Occult Studies - Arcane Theory and Advanced Occult Defensive Skills

Appearance: Tanis stands 5’9” with an athletically toned and powerful form, feminine yet fierce.  With long dark hair and darker eyes, Tanis’ beauty is exotic and challenging all at once.  She tends towards dressing in clothing that is either pragmatic or seemingly from another time and place, though she will adopt a more ‘modern’ look when it suits her needs and desires.  A red aura surrounds and emanates from Tanis when she invokes the dark powers of the gods from whom she descends, but otherwise she tends towards a less flashy nature.

Faceclaim: Katrina Law

History: Tanis has the barest memories of her family, not even sure if those flashes of memory are real or hers or that of her predecessors.  She was raised on the island of Crete, in the Republic of Greece, her earliest days spent in an orphanage in Sitia there.  The orphanage was organized and run by a Hellenistic society, what might be technically and in some cases literally called a cult, but more truly a collection of cults in the way the term has been used for millennia to describe the followers of the Gods, Goddesses and heroes of Greek mythology.  Hence there was a sense of religious devotion, though nothing like a more modern religion might feel and seem, with the ‘Sisters’ who ran the facility each an acolyte of the deity they felt called to worship and devote their life to.

Educated in an exacting and thorough manner that included learning the modern world and the ancient one, as well as struct and intense physical training, Tanis was unlike many of the others at the orphanage, which in a way made her just like them.  The parentless children in the Sitian orphanage were not merely local urchins, though some were and others not local but arrivals in the small port city by chance or divine intervention and still others sought out and recruited and claimed by missionaries of the Hellenistic Order from across the globe.  Where she was actually born was never known to Tanis, though her features were a mix of eastern and western ones and she heard talk that she had been disowned by her parents for what made her unique at first glance as a child, being a very rare true hermaphroditic newborn.

As she grew older Tanis trained more and more in the steep mountainous regions of Crete’s central range and when puberty hit, Tanis, whose name means simply ‘daughter’ was one of the few who were chosen to continue their studies at the monastic styled temple maintained by the Order deep in the mountains.  Visions began to haunt her sleep, and in time appeared to her waking mind, even as she trained and learned the full history of what were her true people, her long ago ancestors.  One day Sister Phaedra was teaching the story of Artemis and Siproites, the warrior and hunter who chanced upon Artemis’s naked form as she bathed one day amongst in the human world.  Rather than being blinded or devoured by wolves as others were whom had glanced too closely upon a powerful Goddess, Siproites was spared by Artemis while being transformed into a woman so that his presence and gaze upon Artemis’s unclothed beauty could be excused and accepted.

It was the reading of that story, and later tales of Hermes exploits and legendary feats that Phaedra sensed were finding root within Tanis and her training and experiences were curated in a way that drew out certain abilities and connections within Tanis to Artemis, Hermes and Siproites, becoming a skilled archer, hunter and warrior and an ability to both help those whose time was ready to cross over to the afterworld as well as to hunt down those who escaped Tartarus or were set upon the living world by Hades himself, ending their time on earth in some cases and erasing their very existence in others.

Neither hero nor villain, Tanis left Crete and roamed the world as Theristi, some called her Reaper in English speaking lands, protecting life, taking life, doing the work of the gods and goddesses, always willing to accept any consequences or casualties to carry out her divine grant of power and the missions and tasks that power was set to carry out.

And now she had been called to teach, but Tanis knew well that no call to her was ever as it seemed.

Personality: Tanis is pragmatic and disciplined, not lacking in passions or humor, but neither controlled by them.  She does not easily tolerate fools or those who would waste what life and opportunities the Gods have given them.  She is naturally curious, with a thirst for learning whether it be within the pages of a book or scroll or experientially.  A surprisingly excellent cook, the level of a professional chef, she almost seems out of place in her garden and walking through open markets tasting and testing the ingredients she will turn into an irresistible meal, though she most often eats alone, too often she has begun to feel very alone in this modern world that seems both home and foreign to her all at once.

Powers: Tanis has the physical strength, ability and speed of a human Olympic champion in each of those qualities, and is an archer supremely skilled and trained in styles from Greek to Mongol to Native American and modern competition styles.  She can move with incredible stealth day or night, though she is more truly a creature of the darkness when she hunts.  When the challenge calls for more than her human form can achieve, Tanis becomes both God and Goddess, hunter and warrior, and can see and reap souls and carry them to the afterlife or destroy them utterly with the magic that fills her entire being at such times.  She can seemingly necromance the recently deceased, more truly taking command of their dead bodies through their souls that have not yet crossed over, a skill and ability that can turn what is seemingly an utter defeat to her forces into an overwhelming power that her enemies cannot withstand or overcome.

Special Qualities: When a mission or task she divines has been given to her by the Gods, Tanis becomes a zealot and will not rest, eat or drink or bow to pain or injury unless doing so furthers her goals and gains the victory she seeks. 

Abilities: Tanis is multilingual and learned in the Occult and dark and arcane magic.  A skilled martial artist capable of fighting in several forms, her swordplay is a deeply underrated ability simply because it cannot match her skill with a bow, but few can.  Capable of living off the land, Tanis can sense which plants can be eaten or that will kill and has few human peers as both hunter and warrior.  She enjoys teaching, but requires students that devote themselves to their studies and whom are to learning the truth of what is being taught.

Special Equipment: Tanis owns an array of bows and blades and her leather and cloth armor will deflect or defeat most blades and spears and offers some protection against ballistic projectiles such as bullets and the like, though far from being bullet proof.  She is rarely fully unarmed and can call both her sword and Greek bow and quiver to her when she needs them.  Small hidden weapons and what some might call gadgets used for things like climbing a sheer cliff face or starting a fire are usually on her person or can be cobbled together from nearby materials.

Limitations/Weaknesses:  Her human form, while strong and fast and agile, is still entirely human and subject to the same mortal dangers that all humans are.  In her Divine Form, Tanis is stronger, faster, capable of dark magics and far more resistant to mental and physical attacks, but channeling the ancient powers from the river Styx, as she does, can also be quite draining and her crimson aura makes her far less stealthy and in ways more single minded and less flexible of mind and thought as those powers course through her.  She has no power over a pure soul or innocent creature and cannot harm them unless their sacrifice will further a divine task Tanis is set upon.

Ons & Offs: Tanis is by nature an inherently physical creature in all the ways and manners that can mean.  While she would not ascribe herself to any particular kinks or sexualized practices, Tanis might well be described as a passionate, powerful and generous top whose sensual favors are not easily earned, but when earned she will not be deterred from fulfilling the deepest needs and most fervent pleasures and desires of both herself and her partner.

Get Ready For Season Two of The Wayne Academy


The GM/DM team would like to tell you about some of the ways the game is getting a boost as it moves into its next Season.

First, there will be a full month open for your characters to post in going forward.  Does this mean we are opening up a full new 30 or 31 days write now?  Does it mean my currently open threads have to close? No and nope. 

The way the month of posting possibilities will run is that the current posting period of September 1st – 15th will stay open (though no new threads will be allowed to open in this timeframe) and those existing threads will remain active AND we are opening September 16th – 30th for new threads and stories.  This will continue on until the threads in the first half of the month run their natural courses and close at their own speed, and when they do, we will open up a new half month so that there will always be a full month worth of time to post in, but also keep players and characters from getting too far ahead of their own story lines.

Next, as happens in any and every game, we have had some players drop or take a hiatus from the game.  Their characters will be listed in the character roster as “Lost” and for the upcoming season about to open, their status as missing will be addresses and will be part of game lore and IC knowledge.  If you have a character you are no longer interested in playing at the moment, they can be placed in this status at any time, and likewise, if you want to play them again or players return from hiatus, your ‘lost’ character can be moved back to active and written back into the game.  Just let Kara and Eve know what you want to do and they will work with you to make it happen (when they have time).

Kara remains the game’s owner and founder and one of our two GM’s, joined by Eve (Discord handle) or Everlasting Starfall (E name).  Kara and Eve will handle all things character related from reviewing new characters for approval, handling room/roommate assignments and all of the technical and administrative things that make the trains run on time, so to speak.

Mythril and Wyatt are joining the Game Staff in the role of DM’s or Storytellers, responsible for plotting and planning the larger metaplots and overarching stories in the game, creating things like Social Events (e.g. the Mixer) for open sandbox play of multiple characters and Special Events which are things that happen on or to the campus or characters or both and are part of the IC game experience.  They will also be creating Storyteller NPC’s to play useful roles in GM guided plots and threads that will pop up from time to time.  They are looking for player input and ideas, so reach out to them and let them know what you and your characters are interested in doing, seeing, playing out, etc.

And as always Wayne Academy will largely remain a game where players can and will create their own threads and play out sandbox scenes that can range from everyday interactions to sexiness and romance to smaller player run plots (that may later get woven into the larger fabric of the overall game) and whatever your creative minds can devise, within the game rules of course.  Play at any speed you like as always and work together with your other players to agree on things in player run threads such as plots, locations, setups and player posting expectations and order.  Game Staff will not intervene in player run threads unless they have to for some unusual reason.

Wayne Academy is a school and place of learning, so both Game Staff and players who have created a faculty member can run classroom scenes that are open to all and can provide excellent open style writing and roleplaying opportunities for all students.  An utterly fabulous example of this type of thread is Elizabeth’s Miss Ryalls' history class thread that is open for play to all right now!!  Expect a few more class offerings in the future, just enough to give a flavor of learning and fun for all.

Season Two opens on February 1st in real time.  Expect to see a Special Event occurring early on, plus a Campus Wide News Announcement about some major changes in school administration, an explanation (of sorts) of the missing characters and other major news events that have shaken up campus recently, several Storyteller NPC’s will be joining the fray, and more, as the fun of Season Two gets rolling with in game dates September 16th to the 30th being opened for play starting on February 1, 2024. 

In the very short meantime until then, finish up your current story recaps/character status posts of completed and currently ongoing stories for your characters, and reach out to Game Staff with questions, ideas and anything else you can think of!!!

Recruiting for the Game remains very much open, so invite a friend or three to come and visit us, read our great stories and maybe become part of the cast and family here!!

[oldedog]

Name: Talia Nahla
Codename: Royal
Age: 20
Species: Human
Gender: Female
Sexual Orientation: Lesbian
Enrollment: Reform
Appearance: Talia is a gorgeous woman of Middle Eastern descent, standing roughly 5'10" with black hair, deep brown eyes, and a regal bearing. The vast resources her mother left her ensures that she is always immaculately dressed, allowing not even a single hair out of place.

When in her heroic persona, Talia wears a black business suit with a gold button-up shirt since she prefers to not get her hands dirty.

Face Claim: Naomi Scott 


History: Talia left her native Biayla once her mother, the Queen, was removed from the throne. Her mother had ensured that she had plenty of resources to draw from in order to keep herself living comfortably, not to mention that she possessed a lesser version of her mother's ability to manipulate the minds of those around her. A few run-ins with the authorities in Europe prompted her to travel even further from home, which resulted in her making the trip to America.

Once she found herself in the US, she set about learning the full extent of her powers. She expects that with practice and time, they will grow stronger and allow her to control people for longer stretches of time. An attempt to build her own empire quickly fell through and she was given the choice; prison or attending the Wayne Academy as a means of being reformed.

Personality: Talia was raised in the lap of luxury in the royal palace of Biayla and enjoys such creature comforts whenever she can access them. She was raised to be the next in line for the throne and expects others to show her the respect afforded one of her station. She remembers every insult and takes great pleasure in seeing her opponents brought to their knees before her.

She has a lot to learn about being a hero, occasionally still using her powers to force civilians and law enforcement into fighting for her. The nature of her powers makes her skeptical of people's intentions, since she had can be completely certain of that they aren't under the effects of her powers.

Powers: Talia produces pheromones which allow her to manipulate the minds and emotions of those around her. Her power requires the person breath in the pheromones, the effect varying based on several different factors. In most people, her ability allows her to control them like mindless drones but other simply feel inclined to follow her suggestions or fawn over her.

Special Qualities: Despite the fact that she prefers to rely on her mind controlled drones to do the dirty work for her, Talia has been trained in hand to hand combat.

Abilities: Talia is able to read and write Arabic, English, and French. She also has a gift for negotiations and diplomacy without the use of her powers.

Limitations/Weaknesses: Anything that prevents someone from breathing in her pheromones. Without her power to manipulate people's minds, Talia has the same limits as a normal person.

Plot Hooks: WIP, open to suggestions.
