©Hi, I’m Jam.
This is my very original RP idea, so please don’t steal.
The Academy
[Quick Information: Not All Characters Are On Site. There are more Harsham Hall characters. Ask for Bio.]
Welcome to Hawthorne Academy, the superhero training school for teenagers with extraordinary powers and talents. This boarding school is said to be one of the best training schools in the U.S. of A., let alone the world. Its true purpose is hidden from the public eye and especially the government. Only people affiliated with Hawthorne Academy know what it really is.
To everyone else, it’s just a school.
But not to the students attending the Academy. In a boarding school news travels fast, and the drama is worse. When you add super powers, responsibilities, and evil that’s quickly rising everything is going to turn upside down. Bonds will be formed and broken, alliances will be made, people will be hurt, and the Team will be challenged by their worst foe ever: the Devil himself.

OOC: Emmy Character Name: Hadley Chase Sports: N/A Special Positions: What do you think? I’m not too sure… Email: my_attitude_@hotmail.com Sample Post:
Addiction [ad-dic-tion] n 1: being abnormally tolerant to and dependent on something that is psychologically or physically habit-forming (especially alcohol or narcotic drugs) [syn: dependence, dependency, habituation] 2: an abnormally strong craving 3: (Roman law) a formal award by a court sentence of a thing or person to another (as of a debtor to his creditor); a surrender to a master; "under Roman law addiction was the justification for slavery"
“See. That means it’s bad.”
Closing the dictionary with a snap Lisa Crawley looked hopefully over the large volume to her friend. Mackenzie Blackpool stared back, her eyes lingering on Lisa and then drifting to the mug of coffee she held beyond Mack’s reach.
Lisa didn’t get it.
She was an only child.
Mackenzie was one of six children; she had abandoned her own childhood only to become emersed in three others that of her seven-year-old twin sisters and eleven-year-old brother. She’d lived through sleepless nights with dreamland just beyond her fingertips, and crying babies right next door. It seemed someone was always yelling, crying and keeping her awake. Coffee was her saviour. Without it she would never have been able to survive in that household and go to school the next morning. If it were not for her steaming mug of skim latte, three shots and half a sugar she would have fallen in a heap right between her maths quiz and her spelling test. Needless to say, now it was rather an addiction but at least it wasn’t that bad. There were people her age taking drugs on the streets and indulging themselves in alcohol into they were well past intoxicated, vision blurred, reactions slowed. Coffee gave her control, it didn’t steal it.
“Lisa it’s not like I’m shooting up or spending lonely nights with a vodka bottle.”
Making a snatch for her mug Mackenzie scowled as Lisa picked the cup up and moved it several inches further.
When Mackenzie had first started at Hogwarts she’d been worried if they’d be able to accommodate for her morning requirement. Luckily for her she’d befriended the houselves in the kitchen and ever since then they made sure there was a swelting cup of caffeine prepared for her when it was required.
“It’s unhealthy. UN-healthy, as in bad for you.”
The look of authority and worry on Lisa’s face was almost comical. The blonde had been Mackenzie’s best friend since they’d both scored themselves a detention for being late to potions back in first year. There’s nothing like scraping flubberworm guts off ten-year-old sinks to form lifelong friendships. They both made fierce friends, a thick pair, fitting the role of a Hufflepuff perfectly. Likewise they were both loyal to one another and friendly to all. It seemed Hufflepuff was truly the house to be in. Far too often underestimated for housing nothing but a load of blonde airheads (hello, Mackenzie was a brunette), they were easily the most well-liked of the four houses and had managed to clear the rivalry tension between that of the Gryffindor’s and Slytherin’s. Heck, neither of the girls was complaining.
Most of the time they got on splendidly, fighting only when Lisa falsely believed Mack had cheated in wizard chess, which was totally preposterous of course. Apart from that they fought rarely and although did not agree with all that the other said and did, they did not voice their own opinions so loudly, nor try to persuade the other to conform to her own beliefs. Truth being told they were as different as night and day and that did not only refer to their appearances but also to their personalities. Lisa was pale, fair skinned, blue eyed and blonde. Mackenzie was dark, deep brown eyed and darker brown hair. Lisa was an academic, which caused many to wonder why she was not in Ravenclaw. Mack was failing nearly all her subjects, despite all the effort and time in the library she felt hopeless and her grades reflected this to a T. Still, they were the very best of friends, the type of friendship only a Hufflepuff could truly master, and they never fought. Within exception to now of course.
“Let me explain this to you, if Mack doesn’t get her coffee, Mack gets grumpy, extremely grumpy and extremely tired. She will therefore proceed to bite off people’s heads and fall asleep in class thus signing herself up for several weeks detention detentions and possibly a trial for decapitation of her fellow human race.”
Raising her hands Lisa waved them in the air. A sign of defeat.
“Okay, okay. Take the coffee, just take it.”
She pushed the cup to Mack, who took it graciously and raised it to her lips. Over the rim of her mug she waved to Lisa as the blonde grumbled something about caffeine and it’s terrible side-affects and how she was going to the library before vacating the Great Hall.
With a sigh and a smile of satisfaction Mack leant backwards in her chair…too far.
And in seconds she was sprawled in a most unladylike position on the ground, the shatter of china and the scorch of hot water of flesh. She yelped and closed her eyes.
I wish I was a rock.
[[By the way I'm on exam week at the moment but I'm just finishing. Just wanted to let you know in case something happens with my study schedule and whatnot.]]

*Cackles* *Is going to tryout as an original charrie* I was considering trying out as Marshall on here, but he already has a history that I would have to change completely for him to be a character on here, and I don't really want to do that. XD So I'm going to try out as Melanie instead. ^^
OOC: Sabrina Email: shadygirl551@hotmail.com Character Name: Melanie McVayne Character Picture: I'll get one in a bit... Age/DOB: 15/ May 30, 1991 (This is assuming the rp would take place in the fall of 2006...if it doesn't, then change that birthdate to 1990.) Year: Sophomore Friends: Er...I dunno. XD Personality: The best way to describe her is brutally honest. Sometimes she is able to bite her tongue, but not often. Half of the time she isn't even aware that she's getting to people with what she says. But don't think that she's a complete beeyotch. Most of the time, she's rather friendly and a great person to be around. As long as you don't take what she's saying too seriously, you should be good. Interests: She has a slight obsession with vampires. She is also into singing. Sports: Er...I'll think about that, but I'm not sure if I see Melanie being all that into sports. XD Special Positions: Once again, I'll think about it. History/Description: Nothing too out of the ordinary. Her parents are still together, and she has one sister two years older than her and one younger sister. She has no idea how she got her powers, but she isn't the only one in her family with them. Though neither her parents or her older sister show any signs of powers, her 10 year old sister, Casey, is starting to show signs that she has the same gifts as Melanie does. (I know that was kind of...blah, but I don't think it was that bad, considering I came up with it in all of five minutes. XD) Powers: She can control fire. She can sometimes even create fire at will, but she's still having a hard time with that, and can't always do it. Sample Post: Do I have to, Jam? I already tried out, and plus, you know me... *Pokes repeatedly*

Pre-Made Character – Student Always Check Biographies First.
OOC: Josh Character Name: Harvey Hall "Stretch" Sports: (Which sports do you play? Position? If you don’t put N/A.) Baseball/Volleyball. Special Positions: (Team Captain, Student Council, Club Member) Not sure. Email: wc_swimmer09@yahoo.com Sample Post: (At Least 5 Good Paragraphs)
Thomas Greeley was a shy boy and one who was picked on often. Thomas never seemed to fit in and was often the middle of a bad joke. No matter how he tried, everyone still seemed to be against him. As a 6th year, if he was known for anything, it would be the for his dark poetry, how often he cried, and how he didn't care who saw. Thomas could rarely remember a time he wasn't sad. He hadn't smiled, giggled, or talked louder than for only one person within five feet of him to hear for what seemed an eternity. He rarely slept anymore unless he was in class and didn't mind physical pain, but more of being picked on. Depression plagued him, and everyone he once thought as a friend fell into disasters. Unsure of where his boyfriend even was and not knowing if his best friend from 2nd year was alive. With a slim body, his robes always seemed baggy. His lip had been pierced for several years now and he'd made a habit out of biting his lip and chewing his nails. His hair was dark brown with a chunk of pink in it, always having a ribbon in it to match his nails, which were currently pink and green to match his shoes. He spent hours on his hair everyday and kept his tinted emerald eyes hidden by his silky 'pride and joy', always having it flipped.
It is about 2:00 a.m. when Thomas woke up, sweating from a bad dream. He walked down from his dorm into the common room to find himself alone in the silence. He sighed, deciding it would be a long night. He plopped down into a love seat, making himself comfortable after a few attempt of rolling over, until he found himself on his side, curled up.
Don't worry, I'll protect you.
A voice in the back of his head reminded Thomas of him, the only person he knew would die for him. The one person who would sing him back to sleep on restless nights like this, where his imagination caught up with him even in his dreams. The only one he thought was for him. Thomas sighed, remembering how much they'd gone through together all those years. He remembered how he'd helped Thomas believe there was a reason for him to wake up every morning. But, now? He wasn't so sure.
Thomas felt abandoned. Lost. Helpless. Was there really any reason for him to stay in this wretched school when Tom should be trying to find him? The boy who had saved him a countless amount of times. Shouldn't he be using every last speck of energy to make sure he was even alive? Thomas looked at his lime slippers, biting his lip as he thought. The words came back to his mind, repeating until they finally faded.
Don't worry.

Beep. Beep... Beep... Beep...Beep....
The beeping continued for almost a half hour until the door of the room shot open with a thunk. Standing int he doorway a straggly woman her hair stand out on all ends, and her raccoon eyes all blood shot. A grown escaped her lips as she stomped across the room and shotput the alarm clock at the wall. The woman stared at her son, who was still dead and let out a blood-curtling scream. With her face bright red she looked back at her son, her son had merely rolled over. Picking up her wand, the woman levitated the matteras(sp?) and dumped it's occupants on the floor. Her son sat up with a yawn and streched.
"Oh hey Mother. What's for Breakfast?" Her son said, Standing up in only his boxers. He rubbed his stomach and smiled his sly smile. Ruffling his already messy hair, the boy yawned and choked back a small laugh at his mother. Her face seemed to be getting redder and redder. Letting out a bit of his laugh, the boy watched as his mother came barreling at him and grabbed him by his shoulders. Pinning him against the wall his mother withheld a growl.
"Sirius Black, You have 20 minuets to get to Kings Cross Station, So either starve or walk to Hogwarts. I am not taking you AGAIN this year." Sirius smiled at his mother and patted her cheek lightly. He peeled his mothers grip off his arms and laughed.
"Oh, Mommy you really DO care about me!" He said with just a HINT of sarcasm. Sirius walked around his mother and picked up the uniform he had set out on his desk. He jumped slightly as his mother stormed out of the room muttering profanities under her breath. Sirius shook his head, He couldn't wait to get out of this house. As Sirius got dressed his thougth about how he was going to live his last year at Hogwarts and keep from being sent home. He thoughts ran to his best friends, Lily, Remus, Peter, and espically James. James was his brother, he was the best friend Sirius had ever had. Not to mention that the map they had been creating for almost 2 years now was almost completely finished this helped him get dressed a little faster. Leaving the top of his shirt slightly open, and his tie untied and just drapping around his neck, Sirius walked out of his room, his trunk in hand. Grabbing an apple, and about 30 Galleons from his mothers purse, Sirius walked in to the lit green fireplace with out a word to his mother. With his mouth full of apple Sirius sputtered, "Kings Cross station, Platform 9 and 3/4." With a loud WOOSH![/I] he was gone.
"Thanks." Sirius said polietly as the baggage man took his trunk. Sirius smiled at a few of the girls that had oogiling him and laughed. Ladies man wasn't the best title... but it was title. That's what Sirius was... A ladies man. Boarding the train Sirius shoved his hand in his pockets and fumbled with the coins in his pocket. He looked into the compartments on the train to find one of his friends. Not finding a single one, Sirius sat in an empty compartment and set his feet on teh chair across from him. Starign out the window Sirius got lost in his thoughts.[/size]

Original Character – Student
OOC: Emmy…again! Email: my_attitude_@hotmail.com Character Name: Alison Carmichael. Character Picture: Ashlee Simpson. Age/DOB: 15/July 5 Year: Sophomore. Friends: We’ll have to see now won’t we. Personality: Alison is very lively and fast paced. She wants to do everything at once and as much as possible. She’s very anti-conflict due to her positioning in life but you’ll find out about that in her history. Alison loves a good time and in very fun but she finds it hard to get close to people. She’s new this year. Interests: Alison used to have a passion for soccer, which has died down over the years. She love drawing and has recently been mucking around on a skateboard, although she kinda sucks. Sports: She hadn’t joined any teams. Special Positions: Not as of yet. History/Description: Alison was born for a purpose. Her sister Kate was diagnosed with leukemia when she was two years old. It was hinted by her doctor to her parents to have another child, created scientifically to be a match for Kate. Alison isn’t sick but she may as well be for the amount of time she spends in a hospital. Ever since she was a few hours old she’s been harvested for her marrow, her blood, cells which were stemmed in her body and then removed to Kate’s. but Kate is getting sicker and sicker and Alison’s parents are pushing her to donate her kidney to say her sister. She’s still torn and confused between what to do and although she has never complained she has questioned her parents choices. Alison knows that if it weren’t for Kate’s cancer she would never have been born. Powers: Alison can duplicate herself and not just so they follow her actions but so each copy acts in its own individual way. As of recently she has also found that at times when her emotions boil over she can hold time. She is in control of duplication but is still coming to terms with her new discovered power, which would appear to have come from stress. Sample Post: Must I?
I don't know if you've read My Sister's Keeper but I am in love with that book and many of the others by the same author. Alison is based on the main character in this book and her situation. So there will be a few references to the book in the way of her history that aren't my own original ideas. -Nods- -Grins-

And I will keep up with flick, i love playing him but I do like to have a completly opposite character to balance out. So I get to rp both sides of the feild..if that makes sense OOC: Dylan Email: dyl_again@yahoo.com Character Name: Liao Zhang Character Picture: Jerry Yan Age/DOB: seventeen, december 9th Year: Junior Friends: Duno Personality: Hes pretty new to the school, so hes a bit shy and doesn't usually gravitate to a large group of people. He can be sort of stand offish whne you first meet him and doesn't like to be threatened or messed with. Is usually pretty serious but every now and then he'll smile or make a joke. Is realy intelligent, doesn't talk much Interests: Archery and Drawing Sports: Archery Special Positions: N/A History/Description:Liao has a pretty understanding family, and pretty stable which is more than you can say for most of the kids at Hawthorne. He first discovered his powers when someone at school tripped him and Liao struck the boy with lightening...they spent four days peeling the remains off the halls. His powers are emotionally triggered and for some reason he is prone to outbursts of anger, and can be really aggressive, probably because when he was younger he endured many beatings from his older brother (The only real problem in his life) but thats what kids do, they beat up those weaker than them...or those they fear. Will probably respect the team and greatly dislike extremly arrogant people Powers: Controls the weather(couldn't think of anything good) Sample Post: (At Least 5 Good Paragraphs) will if you want And because I have nothing to do, I made a siggie already -rollseyes- In a little hilltop village, they gambled for my clothes I bargained for salvation an' they gave me a lethal dose. I offered up my innocence and got repaid with scorn. "Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm." Well, I'm livin' in a foreign country but I'm bound to cross the line Beauty walks a razor's edge, someday I'll make it mine. If I could only turn back the clock to when God and her were born. "Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm."
