Name: Fal Zanti.
Gender: Female.
Magical Attunement: Fire.
Road to glory: Child of one of the teachers, extremely overactive and uncontrolled magic, nearly accidentally burned down the house. Control is needed. (and a fireproof room) Teacher recommended.
Ticked that this group of fellow students are giving you the cold shoulder you withdraw and attempt to find more accepting company to spend time with before the opening ceremony.
((3/10 the dice gods have not received your daily sacrifices of goat good enough. Now SUFFER!))
All of the Grey hoods are in a tight knit circle around each other and don't seem welcoming at all. You are however fortunate to find two students one a grey hood like yourself and another wearing black meaning a experienced student at the academy. You decide why not spend a bit of time getting to know these two after all everyone else seems to not appreciate your (magnificent) presence.
((5/10 I smoothed it over some with the dice gods. You can thank me later))
"Hello, I'm Fal Zanti"
They both look at you in a shocked manner before the grey hood says something in a boyish voice."Nice to meet you I'm Oscar" and the other just says "Juice".
You get to know each other and Juice tells you about the academy and its obsession with training people in extreme measures to see advancements in their prestige. Apparently there are year around tournaments where the academies will duel each other in the capital in themes tourneys like Rookies, Journey starters, and even and all out rumble. Individuals win renown and the academy whose pupils do good in receive bonus grants from the King himself. He shares a rumor that the Dean is desperate after last years sweeping to turn receive extra funding this year for a secret project shes hinted at in some speeches. Those are rumors though no one knows the true story.
The Grey Hood tells you that he's been training hard for the rookies tourney and that has been training 2 years before joining the academy. You can just feel how ecstatic he is about participating but his brother seems very put off by it.Before you can converse a few red hoods yell to prepare for the ceremony and a bell tolls while eerie music plays off somewhere far into the room.In a distance you see a woman with a White and Red robe come forth from the dark entrance of a porch high in the distance. She seems to be old looking with gray darkish gray hair but youthful at the same time with her strong purposeful movement. The music tha plays her in continues for longer but ends when she puts her right hand up to signal the stop of the music. Eerie seconds turn to eerie hours for you as you feel anticipation come from your stomach to your eyes just waiting for your Master to begin."Students and Professors of Zaku it is so good to see you all here again."
She says with an insane looking smile and cheery voice that motivates you and creeps you out at the same time. Even your new Dark Hooded Friend Juice seems to share your chilly creepy assumptions.She begins again this time her face looking much more serious than before and her tone that of a classic motivator."As every year I will be known as Dean or Mistress Dean. Any other titles directed at me or indirectly will find you my annoyance. Anyone here understand who does not understand proper titles will be punished. Anyone here who does not grow will be punished. Anyone here afraid to become something more than what Society or the Church says you should be will be punished.
This School was created in honor of a man who fought for our freedom to study magic. To use magic. To control magic. He never turned ran away from those who dared challenge him nor did he tolerate attacks from the Crusaders or Imperials who wanted to destroy our kind of people. Everyone here will first and foremost learn to be a leader of your own ambition and soul. No amount of magic or money can make you the person you want to be, that you must do for yourself.
Yes there are enemeis in your path inside the school and outside but the fact is that if you want to be a graduate of this school and live happily...Than you have to destory those who are in your way. This is the year i plan to show Atalia why Zaku should be respected and feared. Unlike previous years, this year will focus on competing in the Grand Tournaments 6 months from now and research into new feilds of magic. All able bodies mages are encouraged to take up extra-educational tasks in this field."
Shes stops to take a breath. An then another while looking around at the room. You can even feel that she looks at you right in your eyes."Mages of Zaku Prepare for Masters Call."
Soon Red Hooded mages begin calling out names for Black Hooded mages and then to your colleagues. It's a painful reminder of the caste system here in the academy, one where you are never to speak to a professor out of class your father instructed you. Thoughts of home come in as your father talks to you on your bedside "Make friends with your kind and respect all your elders. Even if you don't like them that is the Zaku way. If you groing to study at daddies school your going to need to be perfect.".You wonder if you can live up to your fathers expectations.You are grouped with 20 other Gray hoods and 4 Black hoods who divide you with 4 Black hoods. You are forced to walk with your group through tunnels decorated with paintings of old magicians and busts of Zalqui and his Generals. You finally arrive at your dorms where rooms for 5 beds are situated and your luggage sitting on top of your bed. You are instructed to stay in the dorms area and not leave anywhere until your first classes tomorrow where you told to expect a escort.As you begin unpacking you wonder what to do right now? Your roommates are 4 other girls who seem to keep to themselves, should you change that?
