    The Illustrious.



    G
    oing to college is one thing, plenty of people wish to experience in their lifetimes. It’s a time to open new doors, make new friends, find the love of your life, and just… Find yourself. But what isn’t always talked about is how important the choosing of the college is. Sure one could go to Princeton, Yale, Harvard, or Drexel… But even out of those schools, there is one that is not only equal to them but excels way above what they were and ever could be.

    Dubbed ‘The Campus in the Trees’, Dubois University is here and ready to make itself known. Being the country’s best in basketball, being in top ranks of Law, Business, Computer Science, and Engineering, this school is nothing but the best and those within it have been nicknamed ‘The Illustrious’. Oh, did we forget to mention it’s an HBCU?

    With over 15,000 students, while it may paramount those who try to take it down, it doesn’t mean it isn’t filled with drama. From friends to frenemies, baes to hurt baes, baby mommas and baby daddies, there isn’t a dull moment on campus.

    It’s now a new year and the new freshmen have finally arrived- ready to take on the school and earn the title of being ‘illustrious’. The only question is- How far are they willing to go to get it?

F.A.Q.
(This is for everything not explicitly stated in the overview OR that is commonly rehashed. While this is a running list, please read the overview first, then refer to this list. Feel free to reach out if you need clarification.)

"The overview mentions AkuTheWolfOkami and Kitsune2202 as GM's. Who are you?"
Hi! I'm your friendly neighborhood Aato, a long-time member of the group and occasional helper for this RP.

"Okay, it's an HBCU. What sets it apart from others?"
While this roleplay has a focus on (but not limited to) BIPOC students, it is essentially like any other university RP. However, you will be more likely to encounter the social & political issues (in RP, of course) that are significant within BIPOC communities. If this makes you uncomfortable, we appreciate your interest, but kindly implore you not to join.

"What if I'm interested, but can't join right now?"
This RP occasionally re-opens for "soft reboots" where we recruit a couple of new members at a later date and revamp the story. Look out for those!

"When does the RP close for new members?"
There is no set date. Whenever we feel we have enough people/characters for a solid RP. GM's will keep you posted.

"Where does this RP take place?"
This RP will function heavily through Discord with main posts being made on RPN. (Sometimes GoogleDocs may be utilized when needed). See overview for further details.
