  introduction.

  
  
  
  

  Welcome to the prestigious Sheldrake Academy, founded in 1882 by the wealthy railroad tycoon Quentin Sheldrake. Our campus is nestled in the woods in cozy Quentin, Massachusetts in the former home of Mr. Sheldrake. Some of our amenities include a large library, an observatory, spacious dorms, an indoor pool facility, a newly renovated auditorium, and beautifully manicured grounds.
  
  We have been consistently rated one of the best schools in the country, so rest assured that your child will get the best education possible here at Sheldrake. We pride ourselves on academic excellence, which is why we employ some of the finest teachers and offer a wide variety of enriching courses. Our classics program is unrivaled.
  
  Though it began as an all boys school, we here at Sheldrake are thrilled to announce that beginning this year, we will be becoming coed. To all of our new students, and those of you returning, we truly do extend a warm welcome and hope that we can make an impact on your future.

  TEEN FOUND DEAD AT SHELDRAKE ACADEMY
  Late last night police were called to local private school, Sheldrake Academy after students reported seeing something fall off of the tower. When they arrived, the body had been found at the foot of the tower and identified by other students early this morning as Henry Marsten, a student at the school. We have reached out to school officials for comment, but they have declined to make a statement. Local authorities have not confirmed anything yet, but a reliable source tells that the police will likely rule this as a suicide despite some evidence that may suggest otherwise. We will follow up as soon as new information is available.

  the new girl.

  
  
  
  

  reserved for ghostchild
  (Gender: female) The new girl is exactly what the name implies. She is smart as a whip and doesn't take anything from anybody. She's wanted to go to Sheldrake for as long as she could remember, always admiring her older brother and the things he was learning there. When she found out they were becoming coed, she was practically the first to apply, and quickly was accepted based on her grades and extracurriculars. How will she fare when thrown into the lions' den?
  

  
  
  

  
  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  
  
  

  
  
  
  

  
  
  

  the bookworm.

  
  
  
  

  reserved for Bellatsakha
  (Gender: flexible) Even in a school like Sheldrake, the bookworm is top of their class. Often found curled up in the library, the bookworm is the go-to student for anyone who needs tutoring, or just doesn't feel like doing their own homework. They're happy to do it, for a price of course. Sheldrake is their home and they love learning new things about the history of the school...even its darker corners.
  

  
  
  

  
  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  
  
  

  
  
  
  

  
  
  

  the outcast.

  
  
  
  

  (Gender: female) The outcast began at Sheldrake before she began her transition. She had to go through hoops with the school to get them to understand her situation and let her stay at the school. In fact, she's part of the reason they decided to become coed. If you ask her, she'll tell it's all to save face and look accepting so they don't get any bad PR. Being the only girl in a school full of boys, and a trans girl on top of that, she became something of an outcast to the rest of the students. Hopefully she can make some friends with all of the new kids coming to the school.
  

  
  
  

  
  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  
  
  

  
  
  
  

  
  
  

  the mess.

  
  
  
  

  taken by gingerwayne
  (Gender: male) The mess has been a student at Sheldrake since his freshman year. He's more creative than your average student there, preferring music and poetry over theoretical physics or historical analysis. He spends most of his time trying to find things he misplaced and downing black coffee. He's got deep family ties to Sheldrake, so there was no question as to whether or not he was going. There are rumors as to what those family ties are exactly, though...
  

  
  
  

  
  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  
  
  

  
  
  
  

  
  
  

  the athlete.

  
  
  
  

  reserved for invariance
  (Gender: male) The athlete is a bit of a celebrity at Sheldrake. He's not only smart, but he's great in a sport as well. Being that Sheldrake doesn't always attract the most athletic crowd, the school gives him lots of attention and even some relaxation of the rules to ensure that he stays. To say its all gone to his head would be an understatement. Is this the year that someone finally puts him in his place?
  

  
  
  

  
  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  
  
  

  
  
  
  

  
  
  

  the outsider.

  
  
  
  

  reserved for dirt
  (Gender: flexible) The outsider got into Sheldrake on financial aid. They thought that no one would know, but upon arriving, they began to realize just how elitist people can be. They know they deserve to be there because of their intelligence, but everytime they get a strange look for wearing old shoes or a hand-mended sweater, they feel more and more out of place. Will they try even harder to fit in with everyone else or will they accept their differences and gain more confidence?

  rules.

  
  
  
  

  
  
  
  

  
  
  

  
  

  01.

  
  

  
  

  
  
  
  

  Literacy. I expect a detailed paragraph at the minimum and five at the maximum. The goal with these limits is to move the story along at a pace that everyone can follow.
  

  
  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  
  
  

  
  

  02.

  
  

  
  

  
  
  
  

  Age. I know, this is the boring one. But please be at least high school age. Anything under that makes me uncomfortable. I am, however, a minor, so if that makes you uncomfortable, this isn't the RP for you. Characters should be in high school.
  

  
  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  
  
  

  
  

  03.

  
  

  
  

  
  
  
  

  Post frequency. I'm not at all picky about this. There's not going to be a set requirement of posts per week or anything, but you have to be active enough to be involved in the story. It's not going to be a huge group of people, so if you're not active, the story loses something. Only commit if you can actually commit. I don't want this dying after a few days.
  

  
  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  
  
  

  
  

  04.

  
  

  
  

  
  
  
  

  Relationships & NPCs. Establishing relationships beforehand with other players is encouraged. All teachers will be NPCs...sort of. There are certain teachers that are more important than others to the plot (wink wink). Those will be open for anyone who wants to play them, but since they're not part of the main story and they require lots of spoilers to the plot, they're not included in the roles section. If you're interested in playing a teacher, just shoot me a message and I can spoil whatever's necessary for that role. They don't need to have character sheets or post when they're not directly involved in the scene.
  

  
  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  
  
  

  
  

  05.

  
  

  
  

  
  
  
  

  Diversity. This one is important. I'd like to have a nice mix of genders/sexualities/races in this RP. Dark academia tends to be a pretty white male dominated space, and one of this RP's themes is how people who do not fit into those boxes exist in a dark academia setting. The outcast must be trans, but any of the other characters can be cis or trans as long as you can make it make sense. Even the roles that are gender-locked can be changed if you make it make sense. Same thing with race. Any character can be anything you want, just...say it with me...make it make sense! Good job, you get it.
  

  
  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  
  
  

  
  

  06.

  
  

  
  

  
  
  
  

  Be nice. I shouldn't have to say this, but just because there will be drama IC does not mean there should be drama OOC. I will not tolerate any bigotry, discrimination, or any other form of harassment. If you have a problem OOC, address it in a mature and appropriate manner and it will be dealt with. If you act poorly, you can be kicked from the RP.

  thatch is not like your typical jock from the teen movie you watch with your girl besties. although he has the talent as an athlete to get himself places, he isn't the dumb brute that a jock is portrayed as. instead, thatch is known for his intellect just as much as his skill in sports. he's a quick learner in every aspect and he actually pays attention in class. albeit he can be distracted and he isn't the best role model for lowerclassmen, thatch is not someone who should be underestimated.
  
  naturally the praise that thatch garners from the staff and fellow students at sheldrake academy has very much gone to his head. thatch has the ego of the top dog who knows it. he is well-aware of his status at school and he isn't afraid to use it. charming and confident, thatch can weasel his way out of anything thanks to his celebrity-like status and the personality that has followed. thatch can be rather vain in this way and he feeds off of the attention and praise he receives on a daily basis.
  
  unknown to many, however, thatch is very insecure and tense within himself. being known for such advanced and talented things has put its own kind of pressure on thatch from himself, staff at school, fellow students, and his family at home. he can be quick-tempered and defensive when he feels like he's being threatened but against more personal relationships he is a pushover, often letting them walk all over him in order to get out of conflict.
  
  likes : swimming, mathematics, the outdoors, flirting, free passes.
  dislikes : graffiti, english or poetry, flash photography, ultraviolet light.
  
  fears : a very personal fear of thatch's is never being good enough. it is just about all he is scared of.
  
  quirks : thatch will always arrange the condiments on a table at a restaurant. he hates making a fuss about a wrong order or food that is cooked poorly or he doesn't like at restaurants. he was a picky eater when he was younger and he still refuses to eat strawberries. he scrunches his nose when he's getting frustrated. his socks have to be at the same height. he wears belts with all of his jeans.

  
  
  
• 
  
  

  
  

  born in salem, massachusetts to a teen mother and a deadbeat father, thatch's life didn't have a promising beginning. however, when he was adopted by an infertile couple who also lived in the salem area, his beginning had a promising turn of events. thatch was raised as an only child - spoiled from the start - with a healthy income thanks to his adoptive father's job. he lived a life of luxury and never struggled for anything in his life. both of his parents loved him deeply despite the lack of biological bonds.
  
  when thatch was seven years old, he started swimming. initially he didn't show much potential but as he grew older and more comfortable in the water, his true talent began to shine. it was clear that thatch was practically a fish out of water and that he had a future that was almost guaranteed olympics-bound. his parents dedicated his life to his studies and swimming, which he didn't protest as a young boy who knew little.
  
  as thatch aged he developed a passion for competitive swimming as well as a talent for teaching others in it. he had few friends at first because of his dedication but upon some quite manipulative moves by his parents and loads of money, he started bringing them in by the dozens. it was in his first year of middle school that thatch became the popular athlete. the ones the girls lusted over and the boys envied. his talent, intellect, and wallet were desired by everyone around him.
  
  influenced by his father's traditions and upbringing, thatch began to attend sheldrake academy once he was old enough. his father had attended the academy, as did thatch's grandfather and great-grandfather. obviously thatch's fame followed him even there thanks to the fact that he was one of - if not the only - talented athletes that sheldrake had. he grew comfortable with the leniency of the staff and the spotlight from students, growing his ego larger by the year.
  
  in recent years, there has been some stress between the controlling nature of thatch's parents, his growing independence, and his high school graduation looming ahead. his academics and athletic performance are not currently at their highest thanks to the tension at home.
  
  with the introduction of co-ed learning, thatch is merely curious about the introduction of girls and others into the school's system. he sees it more as an opportunity for his stage to grow larger. even more adoring fans and secret admirers, especially with all the girls sure to be swooning over him.
  
  family : nia johnson is thatch's biological mother. she was and never will be a part of his life. stefan kempt is his biological father and he left before thatch was born. raine paris is thatch's adoptive mother and she is very heavily involved in his life. landon paris is thatch's adoptive father and he is very heavily involved in thatch's life.

Sara Chibana

Female

Pansexual

Japanese

5'2"

Aquarius

PERSONALITY

Sara's mindset veers towards hypervigilance, always on alert in anxious anticipation for the worst. Sara is highly distrustful of anyone she comes across, her cynicism easily getting the best of her. She has a quiet disposition, preferring to observe rather than participate, and tends to shy away from those she doesn't know out of both caution and timidity.

However, once she begins to open up towards people, she shows her empathetic and warm colors behind her aloof layers. Sara is a nurturing individual that looks out for the wellbeing of those she's closest to, even stepping out of her comfort zone at times in order to be there for them. This kind side of her is also brought out by her when she's around her plants, as she's a person who values all living things in general. Sara is a sentimental girl, nearly obsessed with documenting things with pictures. She snaps photos of her plants and friends as they grow, stringing the pictures up on her wall or making albums out of them.

As a byproduct of her heightened sense of awareness at all times, she can be quite observant. She especially excels at reading the most subtle nuances in facial expressions and body language. However, her inherent cynical bias can cause her to sense threats where there are none, triggering her defensiveness and causing her to withdraw further into her shell. After all, she isn't very used to feeling secure, and may hold herself at arm's length to protect herself. Sara is additionally prone to ruminating over past interactions, remembering certain words said by other people that stick in her head.

LIKES + DISLIKES

+ Small groups.
+ Independence.
+ Botany.
+ Gardening.
+ Journaling.
+ Bubble tea.
+ Instant photography.
+ Her polaroid camera.
+ Making memories.
+ Her grandparents.

- Loud people.
- Alcohol.
- Her parents (as well as talking about them).
- Dishonesty.
- Troublemakers.
- Those who pick on others to feed their egos.
- Her personal space being constantly invaded.
- Being nagged.

TRIVIA

Role: The green thumb.

Fears: Phonophobia, athazagoraphobia, and mild androphobia.

D.O.B: January 26th.

Age: 17.

Quirks: She prefers to take pictures of people acting naturally instead of posing for the camera. Thus, she isn't the type to prepare the subjects of her shot, preferring to secretly snap a picture in the background, not disturbing the happy moment. Although, she doesn't mind them noticing every now and then, she gets a bit soft with her friends. She can also whip out her polaroid on a whim to take pictures of things she finds pleasant or positively interesting, albeit she never asks for permission to photograph. Too shy.

BIOGRAPHY

Sara had her unfortunate beginnings in the crime-littered city of Quincy, Massachusetts, born an only child to a relatively wealthy couple. Her father a biologist and her mother a financial advisor, money was never an issue...instead, the relationship between her parents was the most severe problem in the Chibana household.

Her father, an abuser, and her mother, a victim, screaming and temper tantrums punctuated each day and night with paranoia. Sara grew up feeling like she was walking on eggshells around her volatile dad, whom she quickly learned to avoid at all costs when upset. Locking herself in her room, curling up in a closet, hiding under a bed, even sleeping on the porch, she offered up her belongings as a sacrifice to his rage, but never dared to confront him in person. God knows how many tears she's shed when she did, the fear crippling her system and her distress skyrocketing. Her father's smoldering rage clearly wasn't something a young child could handle, her childishness infuriating him further and leaving her with no option but to run away. In order to survive this stressful environment, the blonde began to adapt to pick up on her father's emotions pretty fast, swiftly analyzing his behavior for any alarming signs. Heavy footsteps and slamming doors became instant red flags to look out for, and soon enough, Sara became skilled in reading other people's emotions as she grew older.

Her mother tried her best to be functional, consoling her daughter after her husband's episodes and making sure she was well-fed. Still, the presence of her child wasn't enough to keep her composure whenever dear old dad decided to dish out hits, bruising her skin blue, red, and purple. Sara remembered coming home from school to find her mother on the floor after a beating, nearly motionless, and thought her father had genuinely killed her.

Of course, she couldn't ignore her mother sobbing afterwards when she thought nobody was listening, and ever since she was a young kid, she could only feel pity towards her.
Pity, and a bit lamentful towards a mother who couldn't be there for her.

School was Sara's safe haven, a place where her dysfunctional family couldn't reach her. While she wasn't anything spectacular in class, always having an average report card with many Bs and a few As, she still found solace in the few friends she made despite her shyness. They gave her much needed relief after the chaos of her home, though she never spoke a word of the violence, just like mommy wanted her to.

There was only one thing about her family that she loved, and that was her grandparents on her mother's side. Visits to their house were some of the only times Sara could truly feel safety and tranquility. Her grandparents were serene souls, and her grandmother had a passion for growing vegetables in their backyard. Helping her grandma water and fertilize the plants were some of the happiest times of her childhood, the sun beating down on her elated face as she dug small holes with green-stained fingers. After looking through a joyful photo album composed by her grandparents and seeing herself in a few shots, Sara became transfixed on the idea of preserving the few happy memories she had in her dim life. It was then that she began her new hobby, photography, first using her grandpa's old camera to capture memorable pictures of her own.

Sara was inspired by her experiences to join her elementary school's gardening club, which she carried on into middle school after she showed great talent in it. However, the situation at home was getting worse as she aged. Now that she was older and in secondary school, her dad was lashing out at Sara as well whenever things didn't go his way. Soon enough, in 7th grade, he began to physically abuse her as a way of controlling Sara's mother, dangling his daughter's health above her head to obtain obedience. Her child now subject to physical harm, Sara's mother couldn't take seeing the same purple splotches on her own arms replicated onto Sara's own. After 8th grade was over, Sara's mother sent her to live with her grandparents in Quentin, Massachusetts in order to protect her from the menace that was her father.

With her home life drastically improved, her freshman year of high school was like a dream. She found herself not holding her breath around her guardians anymore, not skipping school lunch because of the anxious anticipation knotting her stomach, not having to invest in makeup to cover the various marks left on her body. It was the first time in her life where she could finally be 15 and have sleepovers, game nights, birthday parties. Needless to say, the amount of photos she took that year was humongous.

However, her days of effervescence were rudely cut short by Sheldrake Academy abruptly becoming coed. The announcement prompted her grandparents to immediately transfer over Sara to the same one her grandfather attended as a wee lad. Given Sara's wariness around male figures, she naturally wasn't excited in the slightest to be sent to a former all-boys school...gross.

Hopefully the gardening club isn't all that bad there. Although, she can't help but remain cynical...

  Personality

  
  

  TJ isn't the quiet artsy kid that everyone imagines him to be. He's a bit hot-headed and won't hesitate to get into an argument over anything. Especially if you're spreading rumors about him. While he can be defensive, he also lets his guard down when he finally trusts people, which isn't often. Once he does, though, he's deeply caring and will probably write you poems or something sappy like that. When he's not getting into arguments, he can be found trying to find something he misplaced weeks ago or chugging a fifth cup of coffee after spilling it on his homework. No one really knows how someone so chaotic manages to stay at Sheldrake, but that's his secret and he'll never tell.

  Pre-Sheldrake

  
  
  

  TJ was born to Donald and Mary Marsten in Boston, Massachussetts. The family quickly moved out of the city when TJ was a few years old, and into the suburbs. His younger siblings, twins, were born when TJ was four, with his younger brother having autism. His sister and brother were always very close, and even though he was only four years older, TJ felt more like a parent than a sibling to them. When the time came for TJ to go to high school, there wasn't any question about where he was going. Sheldrake, on a mysterious scholarship that his father, an alumnus, refused to explain the details of. There's a story behind it for sure, and sometimes TJ wondered what it was. That is, until he got there.

  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  
  
  

  At Sheldrake

  
  
  

  The first thing anyone will tell you when you come to Sheldrake is that its haunted. Specifically by the ghost of a student who died there back in the 80s. Intrigued by the story, TJ did some digging. He found an article with the student's name. Henry Marsten. It could've been a coincidence, of course, but something inside TJ made him believe it wasn't. Needless to say, the second everyone found out about the two sharing a last name, the rumors began. TJ retreated to the sidelines and grew defensive over anyone who brought it up. He asked his parents if they knew of the connection, but his father denied it completely. He was a terrible liar, but without any leads, TJ had to give up on finding answers.

[SomebodyElse]

Name: Emily Cait-Sid
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Height: 5'10
Weight: 129
Hair: Blonde
Eyes: Blue
Appearance:

Personality: Emily is a composed and charming girl with a southern accent. She's quite reliable and tends to have her school work and general stuff together, she's not one to be caught unprepared, you might know her as that one friend who always has their shit together. Her unusual composure makes it hard for people to really understand what she's thinking. She doesn't tend to talk about other people much. She comes off as clever but laid back, and she has an amusing sense of humor, one that people might not understand unless they've known her for a while.

Backstory: Emily grew up in a farm on texas, she really didn't have anything to do with the rich life, being a small countryside girl living on a farm. She would wake up early every morning and take care of the farm as a little girl. Her parents were farm owners, often selling produce to make it through the seasons. Sometimes they wouldn't always make enough, and it would get cold in their house during the winters. Emily had decided from a young age after experiencing much hardship that she'd be rich when she was older. Ofcourse most of her friends would tell her that no farm girl from texas could make it big. Still the idea stuck in her head as she continued her life.

Eventually she started attending school. She got good grades for the most part, but the real change occurred years later when a standardized test was taken in the entire school and her score was high enough that word got out to people and before she knew it, she was packing to attend sheldrake, perhaps this was her chance to make it big.

Likes: Horses, Guns, Boots, Puzzles, Riddles, Animals
Dislikes: Rain, Stormclouds, Churches, Annoying people
Skills: Owns a farm, good with horses and other animals, sharpshooter, expert pianist, history intellectual

Personality

Demitri is a loner, but he’s not lonely. Or perhaps he is – he’d be up for debating that, provided the opposing party has done their research. He doesn’t have a set group of friends or best friend, he flits around from group to group so while not many people know him personally, a lot of people know of him, and that’s how he likes it. He values the notoriety and being the guy with all the answers. He doesn’t care if people roll their eyes when he starts debating a teacher on a topic, because he knows come end-of-term exams, everyone will be begging him for the answers. That doesn’t mean they come for free though. He doesn’t take monetary payment, he has no need for it, instead he writes the person’s name down in a little black book and keeps it so that if he ever needs a favour done, he can subtly remind them of that time he wrote their entire essay on the history of Rome and got them an A*.

He enjoys a challenge and will insert himself wherever he sees something interesting going on, especially things that can’t be explained. Half the fun of life is trying to explain the unexplainable. He can be rather reckless with his behaviour and a small part of him, despite the logical arguments otherwise, makes him feel invincible – likely because he could pay his way out of anything so he has a lot less to lose than the average person. Most of his inner battles are between logic and feelings. Logically, he knows he is under-socialised and quite a loud part of him wants that kind of close-knit group like you see in the movies, but he also values the time he spends alone with his own mind in the little workspace he made for himself in a spare defunct classroom covered in chalkboards and library books that he should probably renew. It’s his own little section of heaven when being around so many people gets tiring.

He grew up rich, not the typical LA yachts rich, but the type of rich the ordinary person doesn’t even know exists. He doesn’t flaunt his wealth because he doesn’t feel the need to impress anyone. If you didn’t already know, you wouldn’t be able to tell that the shirt he was wearing was custom-made by one of the top designers at their personal workspace in Vienna. His parents come from a long line of businessmen and women who married rich, sometimes royalty, consolidating so much wealth that their family wouldn’t have to work a day in their lives for the next couple of hundred years.

His parents are distant clinical people, hardened by the corrupt world and burden they have to bare being responsible for so many parts of society. Perhaps that was why they placed pretty much no expectations on him whatsoever. He didn’t have any chores to do, didn’t have to meet certain grades, go to school, or follow a certain career path, hell, he didn’t have to speak to them at all if he didn’t want to. He could have decided to leave the house at 7 years old and move into one of their spare holiday homes on the other side of the world and they would be alright with it since it would’ve been filled with servants and cleaners anyway. He had all the time in the world to study whatever he wanted with endless resources, and he did. He spent most of his childhood pouring over books. He knows how to date art based off the colours, style, and type of paint used, he can recite the properties of every element discovered off by heart, he’s fluent in 7 languages, he can debate international policies and figure out complex algebraic equations without hesitation. Can he make a friend… debatable.

Sure, he had friends – the kids of his parents’ friends. They could only hang out when their parents got together to have dinners and gossip about the stock market or Louis and Angela’s divorce. The kids would imitate their parents in the way they spoke and acted charismatically and affluently, avoiding all emotional talk and refusing to reveal anything that could be used against them, which became the basis for all his social skills. However, every family was so heavily intertwined that the politics of the parents often affected the way the kids interacted and led to a lot of conflict and ‘final dinners’ whereby Demitri would meet a friend as if everything were normal and then never see them again. When he asked why, his parents always responded with ‘It’s too complicated, you wouldn’t understand’.

He has two older sisters, Ariza who is 7 years older than him and runs her own high-fashion dress company called Afródis out of their home town in Greece, and Evangeline who is 9 years older than him and works as the Under-Secretary-General at the United Nations. It’s a lot to live up to. So he decided to just avoid it and live in the moment, ignoring the constant dark gloom just around the corner. That was part of the reason why he accepted Sheldrake’s offer after a particularly impressive paper he wrote on the modern interpretation of The Odyssey; to physically get away from everything he knew he would have to inherit at some time. There certainly is enough going on at Sheldrake to keep him busy for now.
