Quick explanation: I worked it out with Ragnarok that a rift opened up within one of the subbasements of the Academy due to a magical accident. It mostly shoots out random objects, but occasionally it pukes up an animal or even a person. I made multiple characters because I'm not sure which would be appropriate. Ragnarok can choose which, or you guys can vote on it, or I might just bite the bullet and choose one randomly.
I, Brandon Ravagesson, hereby declare my intent to attend Twilight Academy. I swear upon my life to speak not a word of it to any person, being, or spirit not of the Academy, and to uphold its laws and tenants to the best of my ability. I also attest that all of the following is true and accurate, and that I am not omitting any information from the Academy within this Contract. I understand that the Twilight Academy is concerned with ability, not morality, and that any criminal past is not a bar to entry, but I will be expected to refrain from acts which might reveal Twilight Academy to the public, including being caught breaking any federal laws or using my powers before any person not privy to this information already.
Applicant's Name: Brandon Ravagesson
Power: Brandon's power is unusual in that he cannot control it directly. It is effected by his emotions, more specifically how scared and/or suicidally depressed he is feeling. When directly threatened, or if he is trying to kill himself, unknown creatures that he refers to as "demons" will appear. These creatures are highly difficult to kill, and will target anyone regardless of age or ability to fight back. They will not attempt to harm him until everyone is killed, at which point they will attempt to hunt for him in order to kill him. Fortunately, their toughness seems to go down after this period.
Specialty: Technical. When released in a specific situation, his power can be unstoppable. However, it is not precise enough for combat and too destructive for support.
Short Self-Description (For Identification Purposes): Brandon is 16 years old. He is a Finnish male with short blond hair, blue eyes, and is tall for his age. He is pale and seems to be of Scandinavian descent. His arms are bandaged due to repeated suicide attempts.
Short History (For Records):
History: Brandon arrived via the rift in the subbasement. Multiple weapons including military-grade firearms were found on him, and he had multiple claw marks, bullet wounds, and other injuries. He was in a state of shock, and required hospitalization. An interview with him began when he recovered. Most of what follows is his account, as we have no real idea as to where he came from. He originally lived in a city named Helsinki within a country named Finland, somewhere in the north region of his planet. He fell into a deep depression recently, and under the influence of anti-depressants attempted to kill himself by carving two runes into his wrist and arm. He passed out, and when he woke up was in an empty hospital. After this, he had found that the city was empty of humans and now infested with "demons". He managed to fight his way through the infested city and out into the countryside, to arrive at his family's summer home just outside the city where he thought they had fled. However, after entering the home, he cannot remember anything past waking up within the Twilight Academy's hospital, and has no memory of the self-inflicted wounds apart from the ones done on his right arm. After a sudden incursion by the demons, it was worked out that anti-depressants suppressed the demon invasions. He has been enrolled in Twilight Academy as we are currently not sure what else can be done with him.
Special Notes: Brandon has managed to recover mostly from his depression, but having psychological help on hand is advised. In order to prevent further incidents, he is required to be on a system of anti-depression drugs. Do not give him any anti-depressants that have the side effect of suicidal tendencies, as that would trigger an incident.

Applicant's Name: Farah Wilson
Power: It is believed that Farah comes from a universe (Or spent a considerable amount of time within a universe) where reality itself was unusually malleable. Notably, it seemed that the more mentally unstable you were, the more control you had over reality. Farah cannot control reality outside of this universe, but she is able to manipulate herself. One of the most obvious forms of this is the occasional shapeshifting she undergoes. The power mostly remains subtle during the shapeshifting, changing her physical facial structure at most, but can occasionally manifest as gender switches, extreme mutation, or imitation of other people present. The other effect of this is the effect her emotions have on her. The more prevalent the emotions, a new effect comes in. For example, when she becomes attention-seeking, she releases pheromones that cause people with weak wills to be infatuated with her. However, she can be highly aggressive, thus why she is recommended for a combat speciality.
Specialty: Combat. Not only is she unusually trained in weaponry, when she is aggressive she becomes unusually tough due to enhanced adrenaline.
Short Self-Description (For Identification Purposes): Farah is 17 years old. She is typically hispanic, and possesses dark red hair that reaches her shoulders. She has five scars, including one that runs diagonally across her right eye. She has green eyes. She has two tattoos, one of two red eyes on her forehead, and another of a diving predatory bird on her left hand. Due to her power, these are the only attributes that remain stationary.
Short History (For Records):
History: Farah originally appeared through the rift in the subbasement. Upon manifestation, she became highly aggressive and killed several staff members. When tased and put into a straight jacket, her powers manifested as she managed to rip out a staff member's eye while the jacket was still on, which would have required immense strength. When drugged with extremely high dosages of sleeping drugs via injection, she became docile meaning that transportation to a secured room was easier. Interest was gathered by several of the more higher ranking teachers because it was suspected she was a reality warper, and the offer of enrollment within the Academy was given to her. She refused initially, claiming she needed to get back to "home". It was suspected she was a drug addict due to the immense amount of drugs already within her system, and when she was offered regular access to the pharmacy as long as she was here, she became estactic and signed up immediately. She has been rather unclear about where she came from or who she is, but she has stated that she was kidnapped by pirates at some stage, then joined them. The location she was based in, which she calls the Atlantis Isles, seems to be either a place where reality is broken or she was severely insane when she was there judging by the stories she's told about the area.
Special Notes: We're not keeping her on to teach her anything. We're keeping her here as a study. If she didn't have such a strange power and the ability to use it well, we would have most likely sent her off to answer for her crimes of murder. Keep her on watch: she is severely unstable.
I, Anya Risovat, hereby declare my intent to attend Twilight Academy. I swear upon my life to speak not a word of it to any person, being, or spirit not of the Academy, and to uphold its laws and tenants to the best of my ability. I also attest that all of the following is true and accurate, and that I am not omitting any information from the Academy within this Contract. I understand that the Twilight Academy is concerned with ability, not morality, and that any criminal past is not a bar to entry, but I will be expected to refrain from acts which might reveal Twilight Academy to the public, including being caught breaking any federal laws or using my powers before any person not privy to this information already.
Applicant's Name: Anya Risovat
Power: Anya has the ability to immediately identify how a weapon works, and how to use it optimally. A weapon is defined as "anything that can be used to physically harm someone directly". She can figure out how to use a computer monitor in a physical fight, but she cannot learn how to use a computer to pay someone to hurt someone, or use it to hack into their accounts and steal all their money, even though these are all offensive actions.
Specialty: Support. Despite the fact this is a good skill in combat, this would also be handy when someone's wondering how to use their assigned weapon or if the team loses their weaponry and needs to swap out with improvised or exotic weaponry.
Short Self-Description (For Identification Purposes): Anya is 16. She has short blonde hair, appears to be of slavic origins, and has blue eyes. She has a tattoo on her left arm of a hammer and sickle and "Muchenik TA7635", along with "GRU DIVISION P". She can be identified by the fact she carries a tape and video recorder with her at all times.
Short History (For Records):
History: Anya arrived by the rift in a red spacesuit with an oxygen tank. She also had a pistol identified as a Makarov by her. She asked the staff present whether or not they were communist or capitalist "aliens". When they asked who she was and what she was doing here, she replied that she was sent here on "a special mission to explore new worlds by the Soviet Union" and she was "a willing volunteer cosmonaut who wanted to explore new worlds for the Soviet Union." When it became clear that she did not actually speak English and the lines were fed to her by an unknown third party, a translator managed to convince her to take off the spacesuit and an interview commenced. Anya is from a world that is split between two civilizations: the United States and the USSR. She is from the latter. She was sent to a "gulag", a type of prison, for disagreeing with a political officer. She was recruited by a "GRU Division P" to serve as a test subject for artifacts, speculated to be magical devices that the USSR discovered. She underwent several highly dangerous tests that may have given her magical powers, which she didn't mention to GRU Division P. After this, she signed up for a volunteer mission to explore the multiverse, mainly because she "thought that was probably the only way out, even if she did enough up dying doing it. She was given the spacesuit, the recorders, and the pistol, and ordered to "shoot at anything that looked like a capitalist pigdog" and "to record anything you see that's notable". She has agreed to sign up for the Academy, as "I'm not going back there". Despite this, she still fastidiously records notable occurrences within the school.
Special Notes: Anya cannot speak English and is unwilling to learn how. We have assigned her a magical amulet that should allow her to converse normally with classmates, though it may occasionally malfunction.
