SINS Academy Interest Check! [applications re-open] Students and Sins required.

[Clio]

This must be what I said 'no' to earlier, then.

I had already done the entries by the time you said that. It's just for my thread mainly, so that doesn't change anything for you.

[Rave]

Phew! Finally back home!

Name : Myung-Dae "Dae"
Age : 134
Sex : Male
Classification : Corporate Shark
House : Greed


Position : Student
Year : 3rd

Skills: Dae is exceedingly charming and smooth, always self-confident and quite skilled at handling any given situation to his advantage.  He speaks multiple languages and has a keen mind for human business, making him a corporate nightmare, or dream, depending which side of the table he is on.
Powers: Infernal Deals are his main source of power.  He has offered up his wicked services to many corporate entities in exchange for souls, or simply out of the goodness of his heart, as long as his work will bring about more destruction and ruination of human lives.  He also has the unrealized potential of financial manipulation, which means he can "find" money.  This ranges from "discovering" a twenty in his pocket(a twenty that was once in the wallet of whomever he'd targeted), to shifting massive amounts of funds around in banking systems.  He doesn't need physical contact with the person or the system, simply concentration and line of sight.  This power is not yet apparent, and it will take time to develop.

Minor Self-Alterations are sometimes required when dealing with the corporate world.  Depending on his role, he may make himself shorter, or taller, leaner or more broad, more masculine or delicate, hair longer or shorter, but his changes are relatively minor and they are made to influence the impression he makes in his deals.

Height : 6'1"
Weight / Body type : Lean and toned, swimmer's body.
Hair : Black
Skin : Dusky
Eyes : Black
Distinguishing Features : When not working, he often has tattoos, but they change with his mood and whim.


Likes : Corporate maneuvering, iron-clad contracts, hostile take-overs, desperate humans, the long-term investment, fashion, cigarettes, gambling
Dislikes :Loopholes, contentment, the little guy, mom and pop businesses, righteous indignation, pretentious people, failure

About:
"What's more important to you, Mr. Fenworth, sleeping well at night, or keeping your company?  Because, frankly, they make drugs to help with the former, and there's no coming back from having your company go belly-up and all your investors finding out what you've really been doing with their money.  Ahh.  See, I knew you'd make the wise choice.  Now, just sign on the dotted line."

I had your typical demonic childhood, apart from my early fascination with the human world, and, in particular, their financial and business dealings.  I was probably the only demon with a subscription to the Wall Street Journal and China Daily.  I swiftly learned how things worked, and decided that I wanted to put my theories into practice...but only insofar as it benefited me in some way.

You'd be surprised how many businessmen utter, or think, the phrase 'I'd sell my soul...'  I happen to know, because I can hear every instance and sometimes I respond.  They never know what they're doing.  All they know is the well-known, much feared corporate shark Myung-Dae has offered his services in exchange for a few 'minor' sacrifices on their part.  There's no contract, usually, no official signing over of their soul.  No.  See, all they have to do is fire a few hundred people, or change one of their suppliers.  They know that I wouldn't be asking for this if it didn't help me in some way, but they have no idea the true destruction that their actions cause.  Even if they did...they'd still take those actions.

I'm attending the school to expand my powers.  I know that I can do more, be more, and I want that.  There's no better goal in life than self-improvement and the accumulation of power.

Super helpful. I'm moving this to the front page as-well. Thanks Christa!

Done.  Might undergo minor revisions because I'm not quite happy with how it's written, but meh... 

In any case, if accepted, my character just might need someone to latch on to, as per her personality.  It does not have to be sexual.

Here she is.

Name : Anneliese Lally
Age : 35 (Appears early 20s)
Sex : Female
Classification : Solitary Sin
House : Greed


Position : Student
Year : Second Year

Skills:
Fades to Background -- With quiet demeanor and passive personality, the seeming youth is oft forgotten when others speak around her.

Confidante -- Many people look upon this unassuming and quiet form with favor, and find themselves divulging innermost secrets. 

Powers:
A Giving Compulsion -- Her innocent appearance and veneer of polite praise encourages others to gift her, and often.  This is a developing talent, rather small now but innate through most of her life.

Whispers in the Dark -- This newfound power requires concentration on a specific target over the course of days.  A mere echo in dreams in attempts to sway a target to her way of thinking.

Height : 5'3
Weight / Body type : Slender
Hair : Red
Skin : Porcelain
Eyes : Blue
Distinguishing Features : "Quod abundat non obstat"; a Latin script along her ribcage on the left side.  In opposition, in both meaning and placement, is "Radix malorum est cupiditas   " just under right shoulderblade -- a symbol of polarity.


Likes : Trinkets and gifts, being adored from afar, subtle exploitation.
Dislikes: Loud noises, confrontation.
 
About:  "Inopiae desunt multa, avaritiae omnia." To poverty many things are lacking; to avarice, everything. A plaque of blue lettering on black background adorns the entry to her room..

"I would not profess to speak of myself.. Pride is no sin of mine.."

To speak a story better untold, for simple lack of splendor..  Youth alone gives so little opportunity for narrative.  A birth of lusts conjoined amidst bickering and squalor produced wide-eyed child of unassuming manner.  Nothing stood out; no pulse of strength and power in which creators could find a source of pride.  Perhaps her only saving grace was a rare streak of compassion on part of mother, to smuggle her through to realm of earth and deposit her there to rot, instead of allowing others feast on tender entrails.

More luck saw her found by passerbys, soon turned to authorities and then to state home.  She was by nature a quiet child, keeping to herself.  In school, her 'friends' were stronger, voracious defenders of the girl who was smaller, weaker, and so rarely whispered evils of others that she must be believed.  Magpie-like tendencies manifested early, in form of both gifts and trophies.. small trinkets hidden under bed or loose floorboard, admired in private.  She thrilled at these private attentions, at her private treasures.  She excelled at her games of power behind the scenes, learning again and again to start from scratch when shifted to another foster home.

At age of sixteen, the girl had amassed enough hidden fortune (a small one, really, to bankroll a life of her own) to earn freedom away from foster care.  She found herself gravitating nigh immediate to powerful men, easily manipulated by a pretty face and soft voice.  How easy it was to rule from bed, to take what she wanted without dirtying delicate hands..

This drifting lifestyle of relative comfort suited the blossoming woman, though she remained slender and pixie-like in body.  Older men enjoyed her physical appeal immensely, and she was rarely found wanting.  In private, Anne wondered if something was wrong.  She turned to less reputable resources in her search for explanation, yet it was only when she found obscure texts of Demonology in Latin that she felt a resonant chord.  Late at night, surrounded by the dim glow of solitary candle's flame, she whispered of the secrets she had learned and, nigh three years ago, she was answered...


Labels :  Unobtrusive, weak, wallflower, leech..

Sexuality : Bisexual with male preference. 
Sexual On's and Offs : Brazen's o/o's

She's fine, and her background is interesting, but you must raise her age significantly. A 35 year old demon is barely on the cusp of maturity. The youngest Demon in the academy acceptable is Aya's character (50 years old) and only because there's special circumstances surrounding her, being a prodigy of sorts. A demon who is 35 wouldn't know two separate powers let alone one, since at that stage they are simply physically stronger and faster than humans, nothing more.

So I would imagine that she'd need to be at least 100 years if you want her to have those powers, or perhaps some slight adjustments can be made to her history simply to say that she discovered her true self after several more years passed.

No worries.  More important than her age is her innocent vibe and her lack of physical prowess among other demons.  I can fudge it and add to backstory for intervening years.  Thanks.

Edited, Rave, if you would like to check.

-moves him on over and settles in to wait patiently for the first.-

Just wanna say that is a really fantastic job Christa

[bubby]

HAVE WE STARTED YET??!!!

[aya]

Please tell me that this launches exactly at midnight on the 30th.

[bubby]

Or meow... it could start right meow too....

[Assassini]

Right, so I've made the necessary changes to the backstory of Guy. Rave, do you want to re-read it or should I move him to the accepted characters now?

Sorry to keep you waiting Assassini!

I glanced over it once more, everything seems to be quite alright now. Go ahead and move him to the accepted characters thread!

[Clio]

It's already the 30th here...just sayin.

[aya]

It's already the 30th here...just sayin.

Then I demand for this game to start, right this instant.

Aha, a loop hole I suppose

Then I demand for this game to start, right this instant.

On another GM note:

GAME LAUNCHES TOMORROW!

Expect and be ready for these threads!

1- The Grand Hall: The main meeting and dining hall within the Academy, it can fit just about every student in admittance plus faculty. It is where all students will gather the first day for socializing and the introductory speech given by Headmaster Charon and his siblings.
2- The Naughty Thread: This is where all the naughty will happen. Getting it on with a classmate in the hallway? No problem! Just switch threads and keep the general ones relatively clean for smoother story telling!
3- The much needed OOC/Discussions thread! Clearly interest has been checked, so we need to relocate!

Those are the three that will be going up on launch, and after 3-4 days, more IC threads will be thrown up.

SO GET EXCITED 

[xPeachyPuff]

Moved my character over finally

- Rainbow ♥

[Angie]

Ironically, assuming MissFire's still on board, we do have someone who looks like Jinx, meaning we actually have someone with the passive "Get Excited" (gain extra Move Speed on a kill)

*Anneliese squees*



(Side note: I'm available to discuss past relations/connections in advance, and I'm interested in particular in a 'friend' of sorts. She works best when attached with someone.  Again, not necessarily a sexual relationship.)

[Clio]

[Sindra]

So excited and a little crazy lol.  I can't wait for us to start!!

Maggie and Veradis are both open for connections as well.  I owe a couple of PMs for the game as well and will be getting on that today. 

Rave - did you have particular thoughts as to what you wanted for the opening from the Originals?
