Realistic or Modern LABELED

[Neri]

Middle school was hard. It was a constant struggle of feeling like you wanted to belong somewhere, to be with the “in-crowd”, and your parents telling you that you didn’t need to fit in to be liked or accepted and that you were perfect just the way you are. It was a mantra that you clung to, hoping it would help you through the days of petty pre-teens and awkward adolescence. You only hoped that high school would be better, that a little more time to mature would be all people needed to have a civilized school experience.


Oh, how wrong you were.


Welcome to Kingdom Crest High School, where belonging to the right crowd is important to your survival. For decades, eight cliques have ruled the school and anybody who’s anybody must be a member of one.


The cliques have existed in a tense sort of peace for so long, always one step away from ripping the other apart. But, things change with the arrival of “The Burner” and letthekingdomburnbook.com. Suddenly, this mysterious figure is dishing dirt on everyone’s lives, and as they get dangerously close to the secrets that the cliques want to keep hidden, they find they must ban together to not only keep their secrets buried, but to oust this Burner and silence them… perhaps even forever.

The Beloveds- Trust fund babies, old money, or whatever the case may be, the Beloveds come from wealth. This group is the elite group of Kingdom crest, the top of the food chain, the crème de la crème and they run the school with a fresh manicure, the newest iPhone, and daddy’s credit card. They are an incredibly exclusive group, prioritizing family, name, wealth, status and, above almost anything else, perfection. As such, they don’t interact much outside their group, with few exceptions. Though they call themselves the Beloveds, the majority of the other cliques (but mostly to their rivals, the Harlots) refer to them as the Bitches, a name that, in most cases, is aptly earned. If you come from money, you can bet that the Beloveds will be after you to join their group.


The Athletes- As the name implies, this group dominates the athletic sphere of Kingdom Crest. They are one of the more diverse of the cliques at the school. They don’t care what sort of sport you play, whether you’re male or female or something in between; so long as you play a sport or are a sport fanatic, you’ll find a place to fit in with them. The majority of the Athletes spend their time at practices, training hard and are focused on keeping in shape and on obtaining success in their sport of choice. The best of the best hang with the athletes, including the Beloveds, and the Harlots are always trying to score with the top players of Kingdom Crest.


The Artists- After so many years of the Musicians being the only artistic clique at Kingdom Crest, a rival clique sprang up many, many years ago, calling themselves the Artists. They still remain close with the Musicians but their members are talented in other aspects of art and creativity. The members of this group are talented in creating more physical representations of art. This includes activities such as painting, sculpting, dancing, fashion design, and even acting. This clique works hard to be a master of their craft, whatever that may be, though sometimes their work isn’t as easily understood or accepted as the Musicians’. As a group, they’re fairly laid back and welcoming. They mingle most often with the Musicians and often the Misfits.


The Musicians- The Musicians live and breathe music. They’re always sporting the newest concert merch or listening to the newest release from their favorite artists in their headphones. If they’re not listening to music, then they’re playing it. Most of the members of this group has been playing an instrument (or multiple instruments) from a very young age and are very nearly prodigious in their ability. Also included in this clique are vocal musicians, including the choir kids and aspiring The Voice hopefuls. Most members of the clique have some sort of dream of becoming famous and well-known performers. The Musicians often work very closely with the Techies, especially when it comes to A/V, but the group is also known as being one of the more virtuous, kind, and welcoming clique at Kingdom Crest and they mingle with other members of the cliques fairly frequently.


The Techies- This group has a love for all things electronic and technological, earning them their name. They’re often ridiculously smart, but with interests that sometimes veer towards the more illicit or illegal, distinguishing them from the Gurus. The Techies are masters of the computer and more than a few have hacked into the system to change grades for a student willing to pay enough money. They have a love of programming, computers, video games, and anything they can dismantle and put back together and ten times better to boot. The Techies also includes members of the A/V team and they’re often running the sound booth in the auditorium for Drama Club productions or creating the pump-up video before Homecoming weekend. Though they’re often ridiculed as being geeks and nerds, the Techies are smugly confident in their own superiority, as they’re entering into a booming industry and are almost guaranteed job security after college. Money may run the world, but money still has to contract techies to do their dirty work and to do it well…


The Gurus- Simply put, the members of this clique are the brains of Kingdom Crest. Nearly all the individuals of this group are members of the Honor Society and are all regarded as being Ivy league-bound. They prize intelligence and ambition towards knowledge, always seeking to know more. They spend a great deal of time studying for their AP classes and various college placement tests. If they aren’t in the library, they’re in the local coffee shop guzzling copious amount of caffeine to help them stay awake for their all-night study and review sessions. They can often be thought of as uptight, mostly because they’re always doing homework and extra credit and studying for their college-level coursework. But they’re otherwise friendly people who are perfecting their mental craft. They like to joke that they are really the ones that run the school and not the Beloveds. After all, while money may enforce the decisions, it takes a clever brain to manipulate the money into doing what it wants.


The Harlots- This particular clique came into existence because they were tired of being unfairly criticized or labeled for their life decisions. “Harlots” is just a nice way of dressing up what they do. They’re the sluts and manwhores of Kingdom Crest, a fact that is certainly no secret among the human body. These members like what they like and won’t apologize for it. The Harlots, then, is the group for any student who wants to sleep around whenever they want and with whoever they want, some only for the pleasure of it and others for a price, without being unduly criticized for it. They are hugely accepting of others, with the exception of the Beloveds or potential Beloveds whom they despise, and are willing to talk to other cliques without reservation (though you have to be wary of any hidden intentions with them from time to time). Members of this clique slip in and out of the Athletes in an effort to get closer to them.


The Misfits- The Misfits are truly the most diverse clique in Kingdom Crest. They take in those who feel like they don’t belong anywhere else in the clique hierarchy of the school. Whether you’re super shy, like to wear all black and studs, or live on the wrong side of town, this clique will welcome you with open arms. As such, this group has a population with a wide variety of interests and hobbies. As a group, they’re perhaps a little more disorganized and an easier target to pick on, but they’re fiercely loyal to each other and always strive to be kind to others. What makes this group unique is their value of passion. So long as you’re passionate about something, whether that be comic books, nail art, studded belts or what have you, you’ll fit in just fine. Beware, though. The Misfits are also home to the less unsavory students of the school, including those who are willing to dirty their hands for the right price.


RULES & GUIDELINES

• 
  
  
  • Concerning Activity: Roleplays aren’t fun and exciting if there isn’t something happening, right? So make your own activity! Talk to and interact with other characters, spread some gossip, complain about unfair homework. MAKE activity! If you want to throw a party? BROADCAST IT. Know of a concert going on? BROADCAST IT. Want to start a fundraiser for a cause dear to your heart? BROADCAST IT. We will be featuring those sort of activities under the Events tab so the whole (or at least most) of the school will hear about it. It’s up to you to be creative and to keep not only Kingdom Crest but the roleplay interesting. That said, if you have any plot ideas concerning things like death, teen pregnancies, or so on, please contact the creators first to get approval.
  • Concerning OOC Chat: There will be absolutely NO tolerance for any fights or disagreements going on in the OOC area. In-character drama WILL NOT cross over into out-of-character chatting, otherwise you will be IMMEDIATELY pulled from the roleplay and the next event to schedule will be your funeral. How does underage drinking and driving sound to you?
  • Concerning Maturity: As has been stated before, this roleplay will feature mature situations dealing with mature subject matter. Therefore, we ask that, if you the player are under the age of sixteen to kindly leave now. Since we do run on the honor system and have no way to truly validate your age (because let’s be honest, lots of people lie about their age on the Internet), we ask that you please be considerate to us as creators and to other members of this roleplay and please not join. There is a whole plethora of roleplays on this site and I’m sure they would be thrilled to have you! We thank you for your interest, though.
  • Considering Post Length and Frequency: We understand, life can get hectic. Work, school, friends, hobbies, they all take time and we don’t expect you to live on the computer. But, in the interest of keeping this roleplay active, alive, and healthy, we are asking you to post at least once every 72 hours (or 3 calendar days). Please let us know ahead of time if you will be gone for a longer period of time so we know how to appropriately move your character along. If we receive no notification from you within a week, we will move your character to the pending list and ultimately pulled after another 72 hours. If you feel you are posting but your character hasn’t found a character to interact with or is floating aimlessly, don’t be afraid to reach out to other players to create some mini sub-plots or some new conversations! Posts must meet the aforementioned requirements of being 1-2 paragraphs in length with a minimum of three-hundred words per paragraph PER CHARACTER.
  • Considering Characters: First, like we’ve mentioned, ALL LEADER POSITIONS MUST BE FILLED BEFORE MEMBER SLOTS CAN BE TAKEN. We want character diversity, but we do also want to make sure we have a good balance of genders, sexualities, races, classes, etc. Please be mindful of the numbers when making a character. Second, you can have UP TO THREE characters, but you CANNOT have two characters in the same clique. There will be no Mary-Sues or Gary-Stus in this roleplay, so please be able to stay in character and realize that your character has limits and cannot do everything. Third, REAL pictures must be used and they cannot be any well-known celebrities (so this means no Taylor Swifts or Ryan Reynolds). Please also fill out the application AS IS. We understand that some of you are very talented with BBCode and we applaud you for it. But we want to keep everything neat and cohesive. PLEASE DO NOT ALTER OUR CODE IN ANY WAY. We reserve the right to accept or deny any characters without giving a reason as to why.
  • Considering Harassment: While we encourage players to interact with one another and to discuss sub-plots or ideas, we ask that you please do so respectfully. This means, please do not harass other members in their private messaging. This includes things like rushing or nagging a player to post or pestering them about a situation or idea on which they have already given their input. Let’s live by “no means no” and respect each other as writers, players, and human beings, thanks!

omg. Is this... is this what I think it is? I don't know if you'd remember me, but I participated in this last time, and it is still one of my favorite roleplays I have participated in. Like. I still think about this a lot. Would it be possible to join up again?

p.s. If I can should I make a new character or would it be cool to keep my old one?
