Welcome! Here are some nifty links to get you started.
Overview
Ophelia Blacke Academy for the Gifted, built in the ruins of the extinct town of Old Evanston, has long been an esteemed boarding school. Not only does it do an exemplary job of teaching regular high school level classes, but it also teaches students to be able to better use their powers. Cliques are not a major problem, but they do exist. The building itself is gorgeous and old, surrounded by ancient forest. Overall, Ophelia Blacke is an outstanding school.
However, recent events have made it take a turn for the worse. The rumors about people disappearing into the forest at night, never to return, are slowly proving true. To make it worse, the forest is too dense and vast to find the bodies in a timely manner once they disappear.
The students have been catching wind of rumors about the things that go bump in the night. Most of the few staff members who have heard it believe that it may be true. The only staff member who doesn't believe in it is the Headmaster. As he says, "Vampires, werewolves, and demons are a myth. It cannot be them who plague the forest and attack our students." Few other people seem to be as sure as he...

Re: Demian Barret « Result #3 on May 2, 2008, 10:07pm »
I just felt like redoing Demi. Hope you don't mind, Ben.
ABOUT YOU (optional):
Preferred Name;; Just call me Demi. Age;; 15 Roleplay Experience;; About a year or so. Other Characters;; None. Roleplay Sample;; Go check some of my roleplays.
YOUR CHARACTER
Full Name;; Demian Solomon Barret Nickname;; Demi, although it's a girl's name. Gender;; Sir Age and Birthday;; 15; November 29. Power;; Empathy - sensing and manipulating emotions. Species;; Gifted Human. Dorm Room Number;; 807
[[personality]]
General;; "I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use."
~ Galileo Galilei
Likewise are Demi's opinions. Not only does he believe that intelligence is vital, but he also thinks that people without it are lost causes. In this way, he comes off as 'snooty', especially since he is incredibly smart and looks down on anyone less intelligent than him. Because of his pursuit for knowledge, he reads quite a lot and can more often be found with a book than with an actual person. His friends are few and far between; he is not very social. If one were to attempt to strike up a random conversation with him, more likely than not, he or she would not succeed. Demi places no importance on any kind of sport or physical activity, but he has a true young man's metabolism. Often he percieves atheletes as their stereotype portrays them: dumb, rude, and ignorant.
However, if one is lucky enough to get to know him, he or she will find that Demi is not a total anti-social freak. He enjoys being around certain people and, despite being conservative toward others, he can be a friend none-the-less.
In relation to others, he is usually very distant. Even with his friends, he has boundaries, though he is a little more open. In a friend, he looks for anyone who can keep up with him and genuinely cares about him. Sometimes it seems as though his friends would be more accurately referred to as "allies".
Demi needs to feel like he is in control. He doesn't show a lot of emotion because he wants to give off the illusion that he is apathetic about most everything and can view any situation objectively. He hasn't cried in front of anyone since he was about nine.
Likes;; ♥ Violin ♥ Guitar ♥ Learning ♥ Reading ♥ The Pursuit of Knowledge ♥ Brunettes ♥ Quick Wit ♥ Pop Rock ♥ Family ♥ Snow ♥ Nonconformists
Dislikes;; • People Who Act Dumb • Science • Religion • Boredom • Noise • Being Around People Too Much • Alcohol, Drugs, Cigarettes • Lack Of Common Sense • People With Their One-Track Minds In The Gutter
Hobbies and Talents;; Demian enjoys most anything that involves using the brain, such as reading, number and word puzzles, and school. He plays the guitar and violin very well, and he likes to hang out with his friends on quiet days. Demi reads and writes in his free time, and he is the editor of the school paper.
Entertainment;; Demi doesn't like TV, but he does like pop and softcore rock, reading, and the occasional episode of a crime drama such as CSI or House.
[[background]]
Birthplace;; Sunrise, Virginia
Family;; Demi lived only with his parents before attending Ophelia Blacke. He has a good relationship with them and is able to talk quite openly about most everything in his life with them. He enjoys spending time with them.
Brief Bio;; Since a very early age, Demi has been exhibiting signs of advanced intelligence. He learned to read before many people his age had learned to talk. Demi was even able to play the violin and guitar with a fair amount of ease. Both of his parents posessed some sort of power, so it was only expected that he did the same. At first, they thought his intelligence was his power, but he developed empathy. There were no nearby elementary or middle schools for the gifted; therefore he attended a regular school until he was old enough to attend Ophelia Blacke Academy. When that day came, he nervously walked up the cold steps of the school, dreading his initiation into the social scene. He had lived in the same small Virginia town for his entire life, so making friends used to not be a problem. He knew everyone, and everyone knew him. After showing an advanced ability for regular schoolwork, he was bumped up to all honors classes for main subjects except for science, which had never been his forte. Despite his inital fears, he met many friends in these classes, namely the 'nerds'
[[appearance]]
Height/Weight;; Demi is a semi-short teenager, at a slight five feet and five inches. He weighs about 140 pounds.
Hair/Eyes;; His hair color changes bi-monthly, but is never an unnatural color. At this current moment, it is brown with blonde highlights. Despite what one would assume about him from his personality, Demi cares very much about his appearance. His eyes are dark brown.
Style of Dress;; Mostly he wears "plain" clothes- that is, jeans and t-shirts. He isn't very concerned with clothes.
Anything Else;; Nope.

[[misc]]

Job;; Not old enough.
Financial Status;; Demi is well-off but not rich.
Schedule;; Honors Trigonometry Anatomy Honors Geography Honors English II Jornalism Spanish II Non-Physical Powers II Graphic Design
Misc;; He hates anything science-related and hates reading "classics" and historical novels. He is unobservant when it comes to other people because he doesn't care about most of them.
