INTRODUCTION
In the robust city of Venice there are many people, right? Well, every single one of them knows that Illeria Boarding School is the best place to go for education and such. All the parents try to get their teenage children in, but few are accepted. Students here come from the wealthiest and most well known of families, including some royalty from other countries. Transfer students are a regular here; it’s the Italians that are rare.
Illeria seems like an ordinary boarding school – discluding how famous it is. However, it is that fame and glory that seems to get it into trouble. Fights, drugs, sex, alcohol…it’s all an every-day thing here, the school just knows how to hide it from the press.
Most of the time....

(Nick)Name: Dean Years of RPing: 3 RP Example: Dean walked into his class room for the first time that year. He had been a student teacher last year, and the year before that. Since he himself had been to school there not 4 years before. But now he was teaching, and he would do one hell of a job. Taking off his sports coat, Dean hung in on the coat hook to the left of his desk. The class room was blank, and he had little to fill it with.
He hadnt planned on teacher at Illeria, but he had nothing against it. He wanted to travel to America, to teach math or English. But at the last minute he was called by his old professor and asked to take over his job. There was no saying no to Professor Dirmix, one of the best teachers in Europe. So he packed his things from his falt in east London and flew out to Italy, to teacher English. He had to wait for the headmistress to bring him things to fill his classroom with, because currently all he had were large tables, afew chairs, and a desk.
"This wont do...no this wont." Dean said to himself, shaking his head. If there was one thing he remembered while going to school was that they had a very big teacher student connection, and that was something Dean wished to have with his students, Picking up his phone he called the head office, and requested that they order him many comfortable sitting chairs, and more round coffee tables. He would make this classroom his own.
In Character
[color=black]Full Name: Dean Murphy Russell Age: 24 Grade: Teacher Gender: Male Apearance: Dean, try as he might, cant pull off the expected teacher look. He tries, but being a 24 year old male, he always seems to make it look like a clubbing outfit. Most of the time he looks like a college student. He wears polo shirts, sweaters, and on the rare occasion he wears a suit.
Personality: Growing up Dean was one of 4, and the only way he could get away from his older brothers was to go to boarding school. Each brother got sent to a different boarding school, and Dean was sent to Illeria. Because of that he grew up very well educated. There are few things that Dean wont get into a heated debate with you about. Thought he is smart, hes not smug about it. Deans teachers taught the students to be kind, and well manored, and thats what he is. He will open the door for a lady, wont interrupt someone, and will always pick up the bill at a dinner.
History: Dean's father is the owner of one of the largest gold and siliver mines in all of Russia, though as a boy he didnt grow up in Russia, he did visit there many times. Dean grew up in Aussie until he went to Illeria boarding school his freshman year.
Dean spent all 4 years of his highschool at Illeria, and passed every class with flying colors. After he graduated at the top if his class, he went to school to become a teacher. There was nothing he loved more then learning, and he wanted other children to feel the same. After college he went to be a student teacher at Illeria, working for his favorite teacher. After 1 and a half years of student teacher, Dean was offered a job in America, and two weeks before he was to leave he got a call from Illeria asking him to come teacher. He couldnt say no sp he left, and was about to teach his first year of school. Family: Mother and Father both live in Aussie, raking in the money from their gold mine. Dean has 4 older brothers and none of them live in the same country. His oldest brother Martin lives in America, second oldest Kurt lives in Iceland, Bennet, 3rd oldest lives just west of London, and Leo, closest brother to Dean, lives in Africa, trying to help fight AIDS. Wealth: Insanly rich, but his father and by himself Home: Dean grew up in Aussie until he moved to Italy for boarding school, he moved back now that he has a job. Languages: Dean can speech anything from Italian to American slang, and anything in between. Illeria teachs almost anything, and he took most of it. Celebrity: Jude Law Desired Clique:...teacher?

April 10th, 2007 The table has finally been put up. Whoa. It's taken me ages...for some uber strange reason. I've been doing everything else besides the easy stuff. Why? Because I want the site to be a hit, that's why.
April 12th, 2007 We officially have a logo! I'd like to thank Kiah McGregor at HMS for making it especially for this site.
I'm still working on expanding the Intro/Plot, making it more worthwhile and exciting. At the moment, it's rather lame and I'd rather not keep it that way. After all, who joins a site with a lame plot? I wouldn't.
Tres Chic Filles Their the most popular girls in school. Their like the Queen Bees. They decide whats cool, and whats not. They wear all the latest fashions, and are the ones who start neat trends. If they have a party, its likely that the whole school is going to be there. All five of them are rich, and their family is somewhat important. There is only five of them, and to become one you have to be invited. {Written in pink.}
The Ragazzos These guys are either jocks, or just plain hot! Most of them are either funny, or bad boys. To become a Ragazzo you have to be important, rich, and a ladies man... your not recognized as one if you're not in the top five. Anybody may be in this group, as long as you meet the regular, rich-folk, treat-ladies-with-respect, standards. {Written in dodger blue.}
The Chicks Second in command, behind the Tres Chic Filles of course. They're all pregnant dogy. This group is sort of the group that worships the ground the Tres Chics walk on. You might call them wannabes. The Chicks are rich too, but far less rich than the four Tres Chic Filles. They rule the school too, but they follow in the shadow of the Tres Chics. Anyone can sign up for this clique. {Written in hot pink.}
Glamour Queens The Glamour Queens are the highly popular and rich. They're as sweet as can be and mostly african-american or hispanic, etc. There aren't too many white girls in this clique. These girls are similar to the preps only they are always dressed to impress and sometimes have the reputation of a very *friendly* person. These girls are known for their risky affairs with the teachers at school, though they don't seem like it, nor are they pregnant dogy and rude. {Written in 9999cc.}
The Caballeros One word to describe these fellas; nice. They are much like the chicks, only males. The word caballeros mean gentlemen, and thats exactly what they are. Its rare if they make someone feel bad. They don't always get the girl, since most girls would rather be just friends with them. They are cool, and do hang out with the top cliques, but they are also neutral and try be friends with everyone. {Written in cornflower.}
The Jocks Yes, like the Ragazzos, these guys are hot and sporty. Unlike the Ragazzos, these guys are more jerks and ass-holey. They are most known to treat girls with no respect or else they're man-sleepers. Every school has them and every school somehow learns that they couldn't survive without the Jocks. Anyone can sign up for this clique. {Written in red}
The Charmers These guys are total romantics, they make any girl swoon over them. They appear to be caring, and soft. But most of the guys in this clique are not. They are thingyy, and all they want is to land a girl in bed. They are usually players. Of coarse there are the ones that are what they appear, loving and gentle. {Written in teal.}
The Preps The Preps are the sweetest, nicest, pretty girls you'll meet around school. They get good grades, are teachers pets, and are terrific girlfriend material. They're more the girls that are quiet, reclusive and everybody loves them. They're friends with every clique and everyone who wants their friendship. They can be rich or not. Anyone can sign up for this clique. {Written in orange.}
The Mean Girls These girls are just plain nasty. They're mean to everyone and the only friends they have are the other two in their little group. There has always only been 3 mean girls and there will ALWAYS only be three mean girls. They're usually somewhat pregnant dogy or very *friendly* personty. {Written in deep pink.}
The Neutrals The Neutral kids, to put it simply, don't fit in anywhere. They're 'wanderers'. They'll hang out with any clique & act however. They can be pregnant dogy, sweet, loyal, back-stabbers, whatever. They just have different mood swings and that's why they don't fit in anywhere. Anyone can sign up for this clique. {Written in gray.}
The Bookworms NERDS! Thats what these are. They stay up studying all night, most have pocket protectors, and wear glasses. No matter which way you look at it, if you read for long periods of time your a nerd. The popular people have assigned you this clique, but you put yourself in that position. But being a nerd does have its upsides, at least you'll get into university! Anyone can sign up for this clique. {Written in limegreen.}
The Dare-Devils These high-schoolers are hardcore rebels. They have their own ideas on everything, and love to bother people. They are true dare-devils, and will do anything to have all eyes on them. They are bad-asses, and teachers hate them. {Written in maroon.}
Punks If your rebelious, and skateboard, you might just be a punk. Punks don't seem to care what other people think about them. They enjoy being unique. This group is accepting, and welcomes you, but they sometimes have attitude. Anyone can sign up for this clique. {Written in dark gray.}
Emoths Goths tend to wear black a lot, and by a lot I mean 24/7. They are really quite depressing sometime, but don't really mind what other people think. Emos on the other hand do care what other people think, the slightest thing sets them off balance, they are often suicidal. These two different sets of people hang out together, they aren't that welcoming but don't really mind if you hang out with them. Anyone can sign up for this clique. {Written in black.}
Use the form, remove the stars, and post in this thread.

Valeria Inconnu « Result #7 on Apr 10, 2007, 5:39pm »
Out of Character
(Nick)Name: Kaiya aka Kai Years of RPing: Five RP Example: (Three paragraph minimum.*) *cough* I'm the admin...I'm skipping this.
In Character
Full Name: (First, Middle, and Last) Valeria Antoinette Inconnu Age: (Make sure it corresponds with your Grade/Position.) 24 Grade/Position: (Adults, leave this blank until your job application is accepted.) Headmistress Gender: Female Apearance: (Three paragraphs minimum.**) I love being the Admin. *grin* Personality: (Four paragraphs minimum.***) Valeria has a very understanding personality. She's always been wise for her age and is very good at getting what people are trying to say...most of the time. Though, she's pretty intelligent, she tends to blank every now and again. She even spaces out sometimes and forgets why she went somewhere. So why would she run a school? She's responsible. She may not seem like it, but she is. She takes her charges very seriously.
Ria loves to party and have fun. On her days off, it's often either very hard to find her or very easy, there's no "happy medium". She's often either running like crazy, having fun or taking care of business, or lounging in some hard-earned quiet time. She lives for art of all forms: display art, performance art, etc.
As willing as she is to try new things and as much as she loves doing pretty much anything, there are many things she can't stand. For example, she can't stand paper work. ("But that doesn't make sense! She's the headmistress at the best school in the world!" I know, but that's just how she is so get over it.) She doesn't like pizza, peas, bacon, or popcorn. She really despises people who judge others without getting to know them first. Also, she hates hypocrites, biasts, "homophobes", "religion-freaks", "rich-pregnant doges", and people who are condescending.
Some of Valeria's hobbies -- besides running Illeria -- include: drawing, painting, designing, singing, dancing, playing her instruments, and daydreaming. She goes horseback riding on occassion, as well as swimming. Though she doesn't like it, one of her hobbies is flying to meetings in other parts of the world. (She likes traveling, but for pleasure...not business.) History: (Three paragraphs minimum.+) I just might get to this at one point... Family: (Include links to pictures, if possible.) I have family? Yes, I suppose I do. Wealth: (Very rich or comfortably rich.) Very rich. Home: (The country your character is from.) France Languages: (List any extra languages your character speaks.)

N/A Other: (If there's anything else you'd like to add, place it here.++) N/A

&&The Rules. « Result #10 on Apr 10, 2007, 4:53pm »
General
1. Respect everyone, in character and out of character. 2. Spamming needs to be kept to the OOC boards only. 3. No fighting except when it's between two characters. 4. Only advertise in the Advertise board, no where else. 5. Know that violators of any rules will be punished appropriately.
Images
1. Your avatar can be any size you like, but it must not stretch the board in any way. 2. There is no set size limit on signatures, but -- again -- it must not stretch the board. ---Please don't make the height of your signature huge, it's annoying to everyone. 3. No nude photos, thanks. 4. Avatar/signature(s) should contain your character. If it is a picture of your character and someone else's character, that's fine. However, do not put random people in your avatar/signature(s). 5. Images violating any of these rules will be removed without warning.
Applications & Joining
1. You must wait for your Character Registration to be accepted before continuing on. 2. Your C.R. must meet all of the requirements to be accepted. 3. If your C.R. is declined, suggestions will be made. Fix it accordingly and you will be accepted. 4. Your Display Name must be your character's first and last name. 5. Please, only one character per account. (Exceptions are very rarely made.) 6. Famous or royal characters are allowed, but only some. ---I am very strict about this rule. I am only going to allow a few famous and/or royal characters. 7. No special powers. Sorry, but this is a realistic high school/boarding school RP site. 8. No Mary-Sue's or Gary-Stu's. (A.k.a. no perfect characters.) ---Another rule I'm insanely strict about. Perfect characters piss me off. Period. 9. Please have your character's age be reasonable. 10. You may have as many characters as you wish as long as they are active. ---Inactive accounts will be deleted.
Role Playing
1. All I.C. posts must be at least five sentences. Yes, there's a minimum, get over it. 2. Can't spell? Then use the Spell Check. That's what it's there for. 3. As for punctuation, if you can't use the right marks in the right areas most of the time, learn. 4. No chat-speak while role playing. (Ie. No..."lol", "omg!", "wtf?!", etc.) 5. No "Big Eyes". (Your character can't know what's happening/what has happened if they aren't/weren't there or haven't heard about it through another character.) 6. No "Mind Reading". (Your character can't know exactly what another character is thinking. They can, however, sometimes know how another is feeling if they know them very well.) 7.

If you're low on muse, please don't reply to a thread. This is an advance-literate RP site, so posts should be to their greatest potential. If someone is bugging you to reply, tell them you will as soon as you can. 10. Sexual content, drugs, alcohol, etc. are allowed. Don't like that? Too bad. ---If you are going to use explicit content in your thread, please make sure you put some sort of warning in the title.
