Orientation + Basic Information

[Akacius Severin]

A fellow walks out from the entrance, with his top hat on his head, making him seem taller. His walk was very agile and graceful, but somewhat stiff. He's shoes made a solid, clonking sound that echoed in the gymnasium and finally, he stopped and turned to everyone. A smirk on his face, he speaks..

"Welcome...to Black Stone Academy. I am Akacius Severin, Headmaster of the school. This is Orientation and you will be introduced to what Black Stone has to offer.
Black Stone Academy was founded by Lucifer to help vampires control their powers and for the younger ones to get to know each other instead of going to a regular school with other species. Surrounding Black Stone are plenty of dark colored sharp edged rocks and cliffs and some trees. Many degons fly around the school so don't be alarmed if you hear anything.

What Black Stone has to offer? We have several classes, not too many, but we are willing to add any by student or teacher requests. For the lack of classes, we do have several extra things at the school. Degonback riding for instance. That's a favorite of our students. We also have a garden that's half dead and half alive and students could add any plants to it if they wish. And the most favored part of the academy, meeting and being social with other vampires.

Black Stone is a 6 story building. The 1st story is the gymnasium, auditorium, and cafeteria. The 2nd story are the main classes. 3rd holds extra classrooms for art or music and has the library. The 4th has wildlife rooms for the feral clans. The 5th are the student dorms and the 6th are the teacher dorms.

Outside, we have the garden which stretches for about 10 acres. Degons are directly behind the school with the pound and above the school is a very large area for the feral vampires to run around and play with. Clans are able to take territories without permission.

About the cafeteria, we serve different types of meals. Not only blood related meals but "human" meals such as spaghetti, seafood, chicken, Asian dishes, etc.
Our library is quite huge. It holds almost every bit of information of vampires and famous vampires. Many novels are also found there. There's also a computer section for computer work and book finding. That is the only place you'll find electronics in the entire building.

Also, for the record, there isn't any sunlight down here. So there is no need to worry about sunlight frying you. And it's also nice to read the papers we have given you about the school. [OCC: The other posts in this board. There's some things that may confuse those not familiar with my world.] And now, I introduce, the headmistress, Meta."

[OCC: Since there has been somethings and mentioning of Horn, I'm listing some things down here but please read the thread on "The World" for more information.]

Horn[/u]: My version of hell. Horn is very rocky and it's lit by the cold fires in his sky [think clouds].
Halo[/u]: My version of heaven. Halo is very cloud like and the only times of darkness are during the wartimes. The sky is a reddish/pink tint.
Lucifer[/u]: Lucifer, the light bearer, angel of light. My Lucifer is not Satan. He's a scientist and high ranked devilxfallen angel of Horn.
Cold Fire[/u]: Blue tinted fire instead of red and is cold to the touch. It gives Horn more of a blue tint than red.

Now if there's other terms you do not understand, please PM me and I'll put it up here.

Also, if you need to know things about the area or anything for your post, you may contact me with AIM. The SN is About BSA and if I do not respond within 10 minutes [or 5 minutes for you impatient fellows], then go ahead and post what you're going to post.]

[Meta Bonnaire]

Peaking in the door after Akacius, a young woman came stepping lightly. Her entrance seemed slow as she tried to make it as graceful as possible. Little did the crowd know, but she had only woken a few moments beforehand. A teacher had been kind enough to send after her.
She was sure that Akracius knew about her sleeping schedule and sent him a filthly look before smiling quite sadistically toward the new arrivals...

"I suppose the headmaster droned on long enough," she questioned without any response.

"Tough crowd. Kids have no sense of humor these days. My name is Meta Bonnaire. Akracius should have explained our classes, building, and everything to that extent..

My favorite reason for the Orientation is the rules. They are posted on the walls of many classrooms and I find almost no reason to repeat them now. However, the punishments are not covered on those sheets. You will recieve no favoritism in these punishments and will always vary. You may only have to clean the library or you may have to clean the entire building or tend to the plants. The crueler punishments go from having someone prick your thumb on a thorn or having your tounge sliced in half...

If there are any problems for the students, see the proper teacher. When the problems goes beyond teaching staff, please see Akacius or I. Our offices are in the first hallway of the sixth level.

That reminds me. Don't go any further than those offices on that level. There's no reason for you to be there. Teacher bedrooms. The only reason I could think of is that one of our students may be trying to raise their grade?"

[Akacius Severin]

<sup>Akacius looked across at the students, examining what they wore. "Uniforms are required in this school. Rukou." From the right of the stage, walked out a brown haired male vampire that looked like in his 20's. He wore something that a well dressed vampire would wear.

"The outfit that Rukou here is wearing is the school uniform. For males, the shirt has a long collar and long cuffs. Pants are regular black pants. A belt is optional and is given to you anyway and has a "fang" or bat buckle. For females, you receive the same shirt but have the choices of a black mini-skirt [that passes fingertips], a knee length skirt, or regular pants. Again, belt is optional. Black dress shoes are given to both genders.

Ties will be given to you and according to your grade, it will be the color of that grade. Also, these uniforms CAN be customized and modifed so it suits your desired appearance, but they must be school appropriate.

I'm sure most of you know the simple rules of dress codes but if not, they are in the papers given to you. I will still go over the rules that other schools may or may not enforce. Hats are not allowed insde the school, but may be worn outside. The same goes for bandanas, sunglasses, combs, or picks. Piercings besides the ears are forbidden. If seen, we will yank it off of you. And I suppose that is it for the dress code."</sup>

[Meta Bonnaire]

"Alright, kiddos. I know the rules are on your papers and repeated on walls around the school, but I'll repeat them once more for your sake," Meta smiled gently.

1. Fighting is not tolerated. Those caught will be sent to the detention cell.

"Now, I'm in charge of your detention and other punishments. Each one of you had best observe school rules. Or you're left to me," the idea didn't seem so bad the way she had read over the rules. Some students were bright enough to catch on to her lure. She wanted kids to break rules so she could make an example of the first few of them. After that, she was usually more lenient.



OCC:

"Official" Characters
aka characters that should be known and/or respected

Please note: I'll try to be fair with the characters' privileges but you'll have to obey and follow what they do. I won't permit any non-official characters to be as powerful or close to powerful as any of these characters below unless stated otherwise.



Name: Rukou
Profile: x
Importance: Rukou is the younger son of Lucifer and the "owner" of Black Stone Academy. In Sanc, he is a very powerful ..thing..[AngelxDevil mixed with vampire and phoenix blood? You'd call him a thing, too.] of Sanc, meaning he's probably more powerful than your char. So make sure your character know he's pretty powerful, but don't worry. I won't make the guy kill or injure your char unless you piss him off. Rukou may also be part of most plots. Also, he gets special privileges.


Name: Dion Dante
Profile: x
Importance: Being the oldest son of Lucifer, he is more powerful than Rukou. He injures and kills people using guns and/or his own physical strength. Dion gets the privilege to actually kill injure students and teachers [aka powerplay] during RP. He will NOT kill any animals of a characters' or a character without the player's permission but will injure with or without a player's permission. He may or may not be in any plots.


Name: Lucifer
Profile: ---
Importance: Lucifer is the creator of Black Stone Academy and one of the most powerful devils of Horn, with Satan just a little below him. He rules most parts of Horn and is a well known scientist throughout all four worlds [excludes humans knowing about him].
