I think some kind of pendant or jewelry would be best for the creatures to be able to take human form while attending certain classes. The students would be able to take off the jewelry as they please though while classes aren't in session. Freedom to be who you are without bias is important to the academy.

Yep, we can work on that. :) For sure.

Hmmm... I've had an idea for a Bride of Frankenstein character bouncing around my head the last few days so finding this game might be serendipity. Would something like that work here?

Yes, a character like that would absolutely be welcome. :)
 
RE: Nightmare Academy (Interest Thread)

I like this idea, always been into things like this. Would something along the lines of a human with 'psychic' powers be permitted? It's by all means a mutation, but if you're preferring the more monster aspect, I can do that.
 
RE: Nightmare Academy (Interest Thread)

Absolutely acceptable Jason yes, that would still qualify as a supernatural. :)

Going to see about getting the profile page up here shortly, so that you guys can start working on them. :)
 
RE: Nightmare Academy (Interest Thread)

Awesome shizzle. Thinking in the way of a telekine possibly. How many people are you looking at the moment?
 
RE: Nightmare Academy (Interest Thread)

Currently we've got 5 people interested, but if you know someone whose up for joining in, we have plenty of room. Alpha and I have GMed large groups before so we can handle quite a load.
 
RE: Nightmare Academy (Interest Thread)

Good stuff. When you thinking of starting? Just returned after a year hiatus, need to get back into it.
 
RE: Nightmare Academy (Interest Thread)

Yeah know that feeling.

I'm actually hoping to get started here soon. :)

Working on the profile stuff now, then will need to do some talking with Alpha, so we can make sure we got everything on the same page. So we should be good to go here in the next few days.
 
RE: Nightmare Academy (Interest Thread)

Ah good stuff, anything I can help out with, lemme know, I like big things like this, run a few similar ones myself.
 
RE: Nightmare Academy (Interest Thread)

Thank you, and I shall certainly keep you in mind. :)

Alpha and I are always open to suggestions and requests as well.
 
RE: Nightmare Academy (Interest Thread)

Well have you nailed down some specifics of the place? How dorms are set up, numbers of students, specialist classes, on grounds entertainment, technology, in academy rules in relation to drugs/drink/sex etc etc?
 
RE: Nightmare Academy (Interest Thread)

We've touched bases on a few of those things yes... If you got suggestions though I'm all ears.
 
RE: Nightmare Academy (Interest Thread)

I'm just curious. What do you have in regards to ideas and I'll try help fill in the blanks. This is you two's venture so you have word over mine. :)
 
RE: Nightmare Academy (Interest Thread)

I've had some ideas for monster types I would like to play, as well as some others, I like the original ideas you have (and are familiar with them).

Would a mad scientist or necromancer be acceptable? I have an idea for either one, but will develop whatever one you think fits.
 
RE: Nightmare Academy (Interest Thread)

lol. Yes, we know, but of course we do favor the input.

Dorms we're not going so much with that, more rooms in the castle, and those will vary on the species that come in and what not.

The Dean and Assistant Dean will of course be informed before people show up, at least for the most part, I'm sure there will be surprise visits but they'll be rare... A family of 4 siblings may get a section that's set up for them each to have their own bedrooms that are connected to a common room for example... Or a troll, will have a larger room, for comfort reasons and as such their room may not be mingled in with a bunch of vampires. We hadn't decided fully yet if we wish to separate by species or not, haven't taken the time to weigh pros and cons of that.

Far as number of students that will totally depend on who all joins, and what they want to play.... I'd much rather have 500 students and 3 teachers, rather than 500 teachers and 3 students, because teachers can always be shadowed in as classes can be ghosted over.... So will just see what happens, and of course each person is allowed multiple characters, long as you can keep up with them of course. :)

Specialist classes will again depend on the students..... No sense in having a class on pixie magic if there's no pixies in the story.... Or dragon flight if there's no dragons.

Technology we will be going off modern day, haven't gone into detail talking with Alpha about that of course, but we like modern day. I've had to many times were I've done medieval times and people have brought in modern day stuff, so kinda tired of that.lol.

And rules we haven't really touched on at all, but that's certainly on the list of things to do. We know most rules that are going to be made, are going to at some point be broken, whether they're outright broken, broken accidentally, or secretly broken that will all vary.

RE: Nightmare Academy (Interest Thread)

Sounds great. :) Looking forward to starting it really. I take it yourself and Alpha will be participating?

One of the teachers I play is a hardcore pot head and the dean's kids are hellwolves, so sex, drinking, some rowdiness, it's gonna happen lol
 
RE: Nightmare Academy (Interest Thread)

I prefer modern as well.... Last time I did medieval I kinda mussed up a post... I was so focused on what I needed to say that I slipped in "flips on the light switch".... Nobody caught it (including the people I was rping with) for like a week.. But they give me crap about it still today. lol.

That's the thing though, Alpha... Some of the rules should be made just to add to the fun of us knowing they're gonna be broken.... Makes it more realistic... Like.... "No chewing gum" I've never been to a school that allowed gum chewing.... Nor have I ever been in a classroom that didn't have gum under every desk.
 
RE: Nightmare Academy (Interest Thread)

Yeah, the 'If nobody knows, it's alright.' type thing?
 
RE: Nightmare Academy (Interest Thread)

Sounds good. My character idea is a creature that is very foreign to European folklore. In modern times, that's not so much of a big deal with how many people move around these days for work, vacation, and of course, the internet lends itself to much of the world's travel as well. Foreign peoples are much less out of place in modern society.
