The Average Highschool Experience [CLOSED]

[OverCast]

Before we begin
A lot of the people here on Iwaku have either already graduated highschool, or are currently enrolled in a highschool. I often see lots of "Vampire Highschool" or "Demon Highschool" roleplays, so I thought to myself; Hell, what if there was a highschool roleplay that played out almost just like normal highschool does.

Hopefully you've connected the dots by now and figured out that I decided to execute my own idea.
Now, without further adieu, lets get started.

Melbourne Highshool
Home of the Raiders
Melbourne Highschool is dedicated to teaching students the skills they will need to thrive in the future. Our students are exposed to a multitude of different learning environments, each designed to better your son or daughter. Enroll your child today!

Rules
No otherworldly-style characters allowed. This roleplay is designed to accurately simulate highschool life

Each day begins with your character approaching his/her bus stop. Use this time to describe what your character is wearing or how his/her morning went.

No school shootings, no bomb threats, anything of that matter. If you even TRY something like this, you will be removed from my roleplay and Iwaku Staff will be notified. This is a sensitive subject and I will not tolerate it at all.

Are we allowed to have multiple characters, and have more unconventional students (e.g. trans, genderqueer)?

I mean I'm gonna join regardless of the answer, but, I was curious. c:

 

[MinTea]

Name: Levi J. Tanner
Age:17
Grade: Senior
Appearance: Levi's dark brown hair always has that playfully tousled look; most times he just rolls out of bed, throws a cap on, and leaves his hair at that. Insightful amber eyes normally glued to a book or a sketchpad rarely venture upward from the paper to the students around him. A tall, slightly built teenager he walks with the slightest air of confidence, while remaining aloof to those around him.

Home: Suburbia
Clubs or Sports: Art club, Jazz Band

 

[Nat]

Name: Amy Jackson
Age: 17
Grade: Senior
Appearance:

Always dressed in the newest fashion, with blonde hair. Her eyes are grey, though they appear blue at times. Often seen with starbucks coffee, or with whatever is currently in, like an Iphone, sushi, the newest gucchi or something else. Never seen without make-up, and she usually carried a big bag over her shoulder where she keeps her tablet, and everything else a girl could need.

Grade: Junior

Appearance:

Spoiler

Home: Suburbia

Clubs or Sports: Paranormal Club, Tennis

 

[MrBriWolf]

Name: Florian "Leviathan" Becs (Bey-ch)
Age: 16
Grade: Sophmore
Appearance: Florian has his black and red-fringed hair combed back, and though standing only at 5'9 has an imposing figure in his broad shoulders. His hands are like that of a poet, though that's not to say he isn't nimble, his wire-frame glasses often are a little loose behind his ears, so he needs to tighten them regularly. Other than that, he has a Hungarian flag tattoo with a hole in the middle of it- symbolizing the revolution his grandfather fought to get away from Communism. He isn't one for sports, so he has very little muscle in his arms- though he runs a lot from home to school, either that or he bikes in.
His ideal outfit of choice is, in the summer, a light jacket with a few pockets and cargo pants. He can also be seen wearing a black mask during the winter, in the style of Japanese kibuki, when not in school. In the summer he also will mostly wear tank-tops, the jacket keeping him warm as he barrels down the hill to school.
Home: Suburbia
Clubs or Sports: Paranormal Club, Socialist Student's Union, Programming Club, On and off the Track Team.

[phantasmagoricStoner]

Name: Alexandria Gael
Age: 16
Grade: Sophmore
Appearance:
Stands at 1.65m. Black hair and green eyes (I think it's blue in the picture but I'll say it's green for this rp). Usually ties her hair in a high ponytail while her fringe covers her forehead. If not, she'll wear a grey or black beanie. She usually wear contacts to school since thinks she looks better without glasses. On her lazy days, she'll just wear her black rim spectacles.

Home: Suburbia
Clubs or Sports: Paranormal club, IT club, and has her own band outside of school (she plays that bass guitar)

 

[Phi Chisym]

Name: Mendi Fletcher (Lizzy passed away last year)
Age: 17
Grade: Junior
Appearance: Stands about 5'5 3/4" tall flat footed, around 129 lbs when dry, with light blonde hair with her signature Peacock dye job on the right side of her face (distinguishing her and her sister apart), and grey-blue eyes. Limber and fast on her feat, but even faster in water.

"Yea, we're identical twins... Just don't tell my sister that." - Mendi​

Home: Elmwood
Clubs or Sports: Swimming/Diving (Olympic Qualifier), Volleyball, Track, Student Council, Language Club.

More about Mendi:
The Fletcher girls were not your typical identical twins. Each one tended to feed off the other when it came to their personality, looks, attitudes… you name it! If you had known them for a while, it would still be the same as meeting them for the first time; there was almost no way to tell them apart.

Lizzy was the rebel; The skateboard-towing, cross-country runner (interior design wannabe) was always the first to get into trouble and capable of dragging Mendi into the mix so she could get them out of it. But Mendi - volleyball extraordinaire and all around dolphin in the water (future interpreter/Olympic Hopeful in Swimming and Diving), wasn't a halo-wearer either.

Regardless of their sweet smiles and tender-hearted passion for their friends and family, they both were a mess to manage – especially when they were together. And no matter how hard you try, both of them were masters at manipulating their way with others – pathological liars, their parents, Eric & Tracie Fletcher, would say. Their bluff was far too hard to read – they were just far too honest and sweet looking to not believe in what they say. Their mom was possibly the only person who could read behind their angelic faces for what really hid underneath. But even still, it was a rare occurrence.

Lizzy passed a year ago due to a rare kidney cancer she developed when she was ten, one her family felt Mendi might also develop. Now, after six years struggling to help her sister battle cancer, and dealing with her family's stress about the false health situation that threatened to ruin her Olympic prospects; Mendi returns to school with no drive for anything. She's picking up where she left off...but, life is just not the same without her twin.

Name: Castor Magnuson
Age: 18
Grade: Senior
Appearance:
Tall and lanky - 6'1", 172 lbs of muscle; better suited for basketball, but basketball's not suited for him. Very unique grey-blue eyes and light, sun-kissed hair, given to him by his South African/British father, and he uses them well.
Home: Suburbia (Left his original home in Elmwood to start living on his own and prepare for college.)
Clubs or Sports: Soccer, Poetry Club, Jazz Band (Saxophone/Bass/String Bass), Orchestra (Cello/String Bass), Music Club.

More about Castor:
Not trying to be a major egomonger, but Castor holds himself to be an intellect in his own right. Although, he's not considered a nerd, just one bad-ass brainiac with a serious fetish for sharp things and an ear for the classics & mixing fresh tracks. His aim is to work in music production, even though his IQ gives him VIP privileges at MIT, if he so chooses. (If only they knew about that one night after his old garage band got into a huge brawl at The Pharmacy that sent him to jail for a weekend...)

Is a charmer, a taker, and rarely gives of himself unless the recipient is one who has proven, without a doubt, that they're genuine and will remain so afterwards. He's spent far too much of his time, money, and effort over the years helping friends; only to be stabbed in the back in the end. Weary, cautious, Castor chooses his friends carefully to avoid being hurt yet again.

Name: Aujuli Magnuson
Age: 16
Grade: Sophomore
Appearance:

A tiny little creature, standing at 5'4" and around 132 lbs, hazel eyes, light brown hair.
Club or Sports: Swimming/Diving (Mendi's sequenized diving partner/Olympic Qualifier), Gymnastics, Drama Club, Dance Club (Classical Ballet)

More About Aujuli:
Aujuli looks more like a 12 year old than a Sophomore in high school. Don't misread her though, Auju is a little firecracker when the need arrises, and can hang with the best of them. Her brother, Castor, made sure of that. But where Castor is picky about friends, Aujuli rather have as many friends as possible; come what may! She doesn't fear the consequences of meeting the wrong people; still a bit oblivious to 'reality' since she lives in her own fantasy world with a stage just for her.

She and Mendi have been diving partners for about six years so far. She's, at this point, the glue that's keeping her friend together. She understands that losing a sister is hard, but she doesn't want Mendi to give up on their Olympic dreams. Aujuli can find another diving partner, but she can't find another best friend.

 

[Lilpuff]

Name: Darcy McClade
Age: 17
Grade: Junior
Appearance:
Darcy is the average height for her age, at about 5'7". She has long red hair and blue-ish green-ish eyes, often hidden by huge glasses with black frames. Despite her intelligence, she does have an athletic build and is on the school track and lacrosse teams.
Home: Suburbia
Clubs or Sports: Scholar bowl, track team, lacrosse team, National Honor Society

Appearance + Personality:
Penelope is a natural brunette girl with blue eyes and a slim, petite shape. She stands at 5"9, tall in a way and weighs 119 lbs. She is known to be quite dainty and whimsical physically. From the outside she simply seems like a hard working girl, work first then play later--However comments about her being childish and fun in a quirky yet cute way becomes true once you actually meet her. Her admirable social butterfly, affable and amiable personality is what seems to get to people.

The wavy haired girl is Brazilian and South African mixed and is capable to speak their native languages fluently. 'Brazilian' -or Portuguese-, and most of the known South African languages.
