Suddenly, a multitude of cards appear in Kaetar's hands, and as she sets them down on the desk, they grow into full-sized textbooks. "While we were traveling, I made sure that Iolth did not neglect his scholarly studies. I composed these syllabi myself, and the one Iolth was reading previously. I have this knowledge because I was a ghaele azata before I was felled in combat, and I have visited many planes as a result. As for dating," Kaetar says, and then she transforms into about a thirty-five year old stern woman in a pin-striped suit. "I can change my form to a certain degree. Most of the facility wouldn't even know about our relationship."
After Tyrrin left, Ori looked over at Salis, smiling. "There's an entire section in the library on words of power. I've been looking forward to studying it actually. Perhaps we can study it together. But in the meantime, you are going to need to hurry as well or you'll be late to your first class."
She helped him gather his papers and kissed him passionately before effectively shooing him out the door.
"Ah yes I do have a class to teach. Thank you for the reminder. I have quite the lecture today for class. It's a shame I don't have more time for this class." He sighed before throwing his satchel over his shoulder and stepping in to the hall. "See you for lunch." He told Ori before starting his way to class.
Mel was talking to Tybs when Vicky and Artie approached offering help.
She looks over, Huh? when did you guys get here? and who's the metal man?
she shakes her head, don't worry about that. I wish I could explain, its a little complicated really. and its something tybs should say, its not my place

"Metal man? You don't even recognize me? and here I thought we were close" he makes a snapping motion with his right hand, but the metal on metal fails to make a snapping sound

Vickory looks at the guy in power armor, as he comes up behind her, and with zero recognition. She then looks at Tybs, patiently waiting for him to speak.
Tybalt curls in a little more with the introduction of all the new people.
"Thank you for asking. But it's not really something that can be fixed... I just need a little time...."
He looks around the room, clutching his body tightly, looking uncomfortable.
"Do we have a blanket? I really want a blanket..."
With Tybs a blanket works just as well as a normal person. Just so long as it doesn't produce heat. It will still keep the cold he generates insulated. See, a blanket only wouldn't work if he produced heat. But, because he does the opposite, and doesn't have a limit to how cold is comfortable, a blanket would work almost better than a normal person. Sorry. Meant to address that earlier.
Cindra blushes and avoids the young firebird's eyes when he starts flirting. To her credit she only giggles once and stifles any other show of amusement when he is tripped, and gives Serrin a disapproving look out of the corner of her eye. She does not respond directly to him at any point.
When the explosion happens in the headmaster's waiting room, (which they are close to if not right in front of) she flinches, then starts helping the professor gather his scattered papers.

"I can probably go get you one, would it's primary purpose be for something to cling to or insulation, because if you want to be colder, I have a reverse induction reactor... Er cold lazer beams"
Mel looks to the others in the room then back to Tybs a bit sympathetically.
She goes over to Vic and Arthur, whispering so Tybs cannot hear
Tybs is having a bit of a real emotional breakdown. he feels like the one person he cares the most about has rejected him. Now i am pretty sure it really isn't like that, but still it is really difficult.
looking to Arthur, for once can you drop the science and be human. please. she is not looking angry, more like she would like to see Arthur's more caring and sympathetic side.
Mel looks to Arthur about the racist comment. she looks a little angered at the comment are you human? I believe the answer is yes, the only one in here by the way. all I have asked you to do was stop being scientific for a change and try looking at this situation a little more humanely.
Mel get as close as she can, Tybs? I really sure Dave didn't do what he did to actually hurt ya. I think he just needed a little more space. but he will come back to you. You are the best thing that has happened to him since coming here, it will take time but he will eventually realize that.

Dave has gone through a lot, he needs time to sort it all out. but knowing that you will be there, ready to receive him when he is ready, just might be the most important thing to him, you are the light at the end of his dark tunnel. So you stay lit for him.
Mel takes a seat on the icy floor next to the bed.
Ya know tybs, I don't know how many times I dreamed of having someone there for me, like you are for Dave, I guess I'm a little jealous of that. Please don't shut us out.
"One, the number of explosions, earthquakes, fires, demonic invasions, riots, techno-zombie attacks, and Hunters this school has dealt with pretty much makes it impervious to a little proto-matter explosion. Two, we encourage safe exploration of a students abilities and control. You'll have plenty of opportunity for that later. Three, as long as you do not deliberately harm a fellow student, detention for seeing what you can do is pretty uncommon."

Ryo:
Given that he threatened to fire Vare over dating a student I'd say it's more than slightly discouraged...I think the most she could be is a teacher's aide kind of arrangement.
"Oh, thank you, miss," the gnomish engineering professor says, peering at Cindra through his thick spectacles that make his eyes look comically huge. "I simply wasn't expecting the office to blow up just then...really more the sort of thing you expect in the alchemy classroom or the cafeteria, you know? Be a dear and hand those to the secretary please? I have to hurry or I'll be late to teach my first class of the day," he said, affably, handing the disorganized stack of papers to Cindra and hurrying off.

i looked on your sheet and I'm not seeing how cold doesn't affect you, that said you might not know how cold the room is and just teleported in"Carl I do wish you would stop doing that, I'm kinda in the middle of something"
As Carl it's the cold you can see it affect him, but he seems to heal the Damage just as fast, then his body shimmers over with Iron and he's incased in his space mining suit, blocking out the cold.
"I know lad, just looking for ya, bit chilly in here, but no as cold as space like"
He clanks up to them looking down at the cold cat.
"Is he hurt?"

Renkai feels the wind tearing across his exposed face... He ties a square of cloth across the tender flesh, but it is so unlike his pale smooth ivory that has been his constant companion for so long.
The street is empty, market stalls vacant of peoples, but wares of all shapes, sizes, and purposes lay where their missing owners had lain them on display. Shining white bowls lay upturned in the dust, and coated with weeks worth of grime.
Renkai grips the black, sweat stained hilt of his long sword, advancing with caution down the road. He unconsciously stays in the shadows and nearby cover, but his ability to hide in any condition and with the magically muted steps aren't there. What once would have been the ability to stand upon someone's front step and be unnoticed, is now only the cautious creep of a common thief...
The dead town is barren and soulless... A superb comparison to how he feels... He has abandoned his school and had his valued mask stripped away by that black clothed specter.

Treisdan's eyes slide open slowly... His head turns and surveys his room... Seeing the smooth, empty floor space devoid of the circles for the summoning of the vestiges.
He smiles softly and rises to his feet, planning on heading for the cafeteria.

Treisdan sees the diminutive creature, but fails to give significance to the scintillating pattern upon its back, because of the interference of its wings and its size.
He thumps his lengthy staff upon the floor with every step, more out of habit rather than the actual need for the magical aide, he still feels the weakness of his magic and the schism within his soul, but is glad to be rid of the foul nature of himself.
Having left the boy and his angel 'friend' at the Headmaster's office, Vare hurried as much as he could, heading towards his classroom to finish preparations for the morning classes.
Having left the boy and his angel 'friend' at the Headmaster's office, Vare hurried as much as he could, heading towards his classroom to finish preparations for the morning classes.
In the midst of preparing, Vare, depending on his perceptiveness, may notice the immediate appearance of a familiar figure.
Standing where she appears, Anahita walks from the doorway to one of the seats, while saying, "Good morning, Professor. I trust you slept well? Any wild stories in between my departure and only just returning? I thought to surprise you, however, this is your office, if I'm not mistaken." She has a glint of playfulness in her eyes, but that's brief.
Anahita Pose:
She looks identical as before, if he saw in the mundane space, while in the Dreamscape, she is the middle aged version, with all it's glory and blaze, shifting and twisting, as before. At least, this time, not three in one as previously.
Slipping onto a table to sit, she does have a new article of clothing on, some scarf of a dark nectar color, wrapped around her shoulders and neck. Quite fetching, going along with the white cotton desert clothing, with it's embroidery in gold and flames, plus the brief glint of metal around her left hand and fingers.
Feeling the cloth of the scarf, while looking idly around the room she'd been in previously, her eyes peer at the details with ease, before returning to fall upon Vare once more.
Archena jumps at the explosion.
"The f$%& was that?!"
I kinda want Archena to swear a lot, but I personally have trouble writing that. I'll try it, at least....

He switches over and places a paw in Melody's hand, holding it there. He is quiet for a while.
"I just don't know Mel... what if I'm not what's best for him... I want to help him so bad, but I feel like I'm only making it harder for him..."
Skipped cheerfully down the hall, dragging Ignace along with her. Ignace was a bundle of nerves now that she knew going to the nurses office wasn't an option.
"Stop being so silly! Big sis is teaching class today! It can't be that bad with her in charge," she said, trying to encourage Ignace.
Keme just couldn't take it anymore. Somebody needed to step in and help before this poor kid's life turned into an actual circus. A small fox darts out from underneath the desk at the nurses' station and transforms into an exceptionally pretty boy.
"Okay, people, that's enough. Too many trying to help at once, let the poor guy have some peace and quiet. You!" he said, pointing at Vickory. "Fetch a thermal blanket from that cupboard over there, third one from the left and bring it to him, then leave him be. You!" he said, pointing at Arthur, "Go fetch some cookie dough ice cream. Yes, it has to be cookie dough. Treating a broken heart with chocolate ice cream...that's just crazy talk. The rest of you, except her," he said, pointing to Melody, "please exit the room. Rejection sucks. Even more with an audience. I know you want to help, but one at a time, please and thank you."

Not sure if he has his telepathy set to off or not. If not, he hears the following.
::If you ever want to talk about it, I'm available. I know a thing or two about rejection. The girl I liked went to such drastic lengths to get away that she skipped dimensions without even saying goodbye. Nothing says 'stay away from me' like not even being able to be on the same plane.::

Silinrul had been sitting quietly, watching Asha eat such a massive amount of food. He had seen similar in the wilds, usually from an animal who for whatever reason was unable to have stowed away enough food for winter. Or had been held captive. Poor girl must have been near starved to eat so.
Then the bell rings, and she jumps. He too had never heard such a sound, and so he's claws come out, and he looks around for threats "What in the Abyss was that?!"
Asha shrieks when Silinrul's claws come out and she falls through her chair, realizing as she fell that he wasn't threatening her. But it was too late to stop herself and she ends up resolidifying in just the wrong position...one of the chair legs is going straight through her leg. She screams.

I just happened to collapse there. And then in the morning...In the morning Vai came asking Sadie to help her with some important mission, and Sadie agreed without so much as a second thought. I don't know if it was because she was relieved to get away or because she's still kinda hung up on Vai. Probably both.

Ardiente fidgeted slightly at that, a little uncomfortable as Morrivan explained her problems. He had no idea how he wouldn't reacted in a similar situation. Wait what? Sadie and Vai...? Vai was with... hmmm.
"I don't think I'm a very good candidate to decide what is and isn't stupid in this respect, Morrivan.

Repp cursed just as the bell rang, though spoke up so that he could be heard through the door."I need someone to help me find a friend who's gone missing. The arrows led me here."He replies, not really caring overmuch for going to class at the moment.
Should anyone be interested a play-by-post possibility for those really wacky characters that you might not get a chance to play in the normal run of things.
It's a rules super light game based in the same world as Realms of Agartha (Here is the original Agartha thread for anyone who is interested. Not required reading, kinda different setting, but can give you a good feel for how rules light plays.), though it's not necessary to have read or even be remotely familiar with that thread. I'll gladly fill you in on the basics. Basically the action would be taking place in a school for magical youngsters. Think a mashup of Hogwarts and the Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters. Existing characters include weredragon triplets and a good-aligned demon. Power level starts in the mid to upper teens. This is really the beauty of rules almost free, it actually supports that without making you want to tear out hair trying to keep track of all the details. Cause sometimes its fun to play superheroes. :)
We do use dice rolls, but sparingly, and if you have a concept that isn't easily supported by existing rules we can help you cobble together something that works since really all you need is a basic idea that lets you know what to roll for attacks, saves, damage, etc. The focus is more on the shared storytelling aspect of the game.
Power level is mid to high teens. Loosely Pathfinder/3.5 based. The current thread has been going for a couple of months, but we've had a few players drop out, so need to fill a few slots.
In game it's about two weeks into the term, so you can choose to be a late transfer or easily say that you've been there all along and just hadn't interacted with the main story before.
Rules light means don't sweat the numbers. Rule of cool wins over RAW every time. :)
All you need to know is your attack bonus, AC, saves, and maybe a few key skills, but really there's a lot of handwaving and it's okay to improvise. The focus of the game is on cooperative storytelling rather than crunch.
Feel free to take a look at the thread and read through a little bit of it if you want to see how it looks in play.
What do you want by way of a stat block or back story?
I think I will run with a human savant. Sorry but I really do not want to ready 3800 post so let’s just say he is late. If it will not work I can think more. The kid from Mercury Rising is about what I want to play.

As far as stat block goes, just have a basic concept of your ability scores (we use the handwaving point buy system), know your attack bonus, saves, AC, maybe a few key skills if you like. And watch your power level. Your concept sounds like it might be a bit weak as is. I don't want you to not have fun because you handicapped yourself too much.
You don't have to write me a book on backstory. Give me a synopsis and maybe a few key things that I can use to draw your character into the story. You can feel free to relate details (or not) as the story progresses.
Also:
Spoiler:
I'm not opposed to the concept, but as a personal favor I'm gonna have to ask you to tread lightly with this one. As the parent of an autistic child that is some emotionally charged territory for me. If done right, that is a concept that I can really respect and appreciate. Heck, that's one of the things I really love about the tv show Bones. It does an amazing job of showing an autistic person struggling to relate to the world around them without making it something to be pitied or being preachy. But if the character you have in mind is more of a caricature, I am not the person to do that around. Figured it was better to just be up-front and tell you that now.

To give you an idea of what she means by this, here is a list of current characters that I made just yesterday.
EDIT: I did not make all the characters yesterday, just the list. As you can see all of them are pretty crazy.
EDIT 2: Not all of these characters are mine, and those that are aren't always active.

Char Info:
True Name: Unknown
Given Name: Tom
Class: Technically Summoner
Race: Assumedly Human
Alignment: Neutral
Age: ??
Height: 4’4’’
Weight: 77lb
Description:
Tom looks like a basic young boy. He has common slacks and a light blue tunic. He has vivid green eyes and a wide happy smile on his face. He has no shoes but his feet seem to look rugged.
Personality:
Tom is extremely inquisitive, but also seemingly lost. Since the point in time when he was first spotted he has not said a single word to anyone. He does seem to speak, but the word are not in any known language, nor consistent. He really does not pay all that much attention to his surroundings, which really causes issues due to the fact he reacts somewhat aggressive to fear.
Tom has an innate ability to create small living creatures seemingly at will. This ability most includes very small things like butterflies, spiders, or other bugs. Aside from the bugs he also seems to really like colorful fish and flowers.
He really does not have any desire to follow the standard structure of society. Due to the fact he can substance himself with food, water, and shelter the traditional structure of society is irrelevant. If given simply motivation he will follow others due to his inquisitive tendencies. Interesting creatures, people, or things tend to make him happy.
Back-story:
Tom was found walking down the middle of the road about 6 months ago. Before that time he had never been seen.
A few different vastly intelligent creatures have spent some time attempting to understand what Tom really is, but no one is really sure. The current competing options range from sentient life force, to lost construct. Everyone has concluded he looks like a young boy, but he most certainly is not one.
The power that be decided to send Tom to the Avalon Academy
Well I find this interesting I would need levels at least, I dont like being all powerful or having a slanted advantage. Kinda takes away from the point to me. Characters need a goal/purpose and gaining levels, money, inflence, etc etc is the means and so the adventure. I like being able to play pretty much anything but if their is nothing at the end or even the illusion of an end then just does not seem fun. How can characters evolve or even grow with out the real threat of failure at least if not death.
But then again I may not know what I am talking about so if you can clear this up for me then please do.
Just tell me if you think this will work or if you want me to change anything.
** spoiler omitted **
It sounds like a solid concept, but I have two concerns.
The first one I've already mentioned is power level. Now, I will say this, if you start and then discover that you're way too weak, you can always have your characters powers evolve as he gains more control over them, bringing in more powerful abilities.
The second is how is this kid going to relate to or even notice the other students? He doesn't have to be socially skilled, but I'd hate for the plot to always be passing him by. What are his points of interest? His obsession if you will. There's usually something.

There is threat of danger/failure/occasionally even death. But the goal/purpose is generally more story driven rather than levels, money, etc. Abilities can and do develop over time, and as DB3 said, that's the real purpose of the school. To help the students gain control of and develop their powers. I'd suggest maybe reading the first page or two of the thread to get a feel for how things play out. There are definitely rivalries, enemies to defeat, long-term goals and so on. And trust me, while the characters are powerful, there are plenty of things out there that are more powerful than they are.
This would be the situation when he spontaneous summons everything in his power to stay safe. He can do more than just play with butterflies.
TWO: Get into the game
Interesting creatures, people, or things tend to make him happy.
I assume I will find something about the other players that will fall into this category. After I get him going, and get a better idea of the other players I will hook him into the plot.
He is more or less the embodied sprite of a forest.
Okay, cool, that gives me something to work with.
When you say that he is interested in life do you mean that he likes to observe other creatures' behavior? or more like biological processes? outward appearances? It sounds like he and EJ, the recently 'born' intelligent ooze, might have some interesting interaction should their paths ever cross. :)
When you say that he is interested in life do you mean that he likes to observe other creatures' behavior? or more like biological processes? outward appearances?
At this time he does not understand what he is, but he likes to create life, and down the road the stuff he calls forth will start lasting longer and longer until it is permanent.
In time he will understand what he is and more than likely start a new forest. When he starts a new forest he will no longer exist as a humanoid.
Here are a few questions of reflection?
What are the emotions of a tree when the morning sun comes over the horizon?
What is the first thing a seedling would say when it eclipses the crust of the earth?
Why does a duckling or other bird work so hard to free itself of the shell?
Does a spring rain drop speak with the plants as it falls to the earth?
Does a seed try to find the best soil?
Does my house plant get upset when I turn it away from the window?
So would I be able to make a character with some interesting Templates?
I'll need to think about it, but Ive always got some interesting ideas for that or maybe just an interesting personality to play. Halfling wizard (maybe SUmmoner) with a napoleon complex comes to mind.
Edit: Halfling wizard with a napoleon complex who was cursed with a permanent reduce person effect. lol!

Also, I love that character idea. You don't want to know how many times I watched/read the Borrowers when I was a kid....in other words I think that character sounds like a ton of fun. :)
I GOT IT! Permanently reduced halfling with a Napoleon complex who is a master summoner. He can't kick your a$$, but he can summon something to do the job for him. LOL Maybe with a template or two.
Both of you guys can head over to the discussion thread if you like to iron out details. As you can tell we get a bit quiet on the weekends, but now it's Monday and things are back in full swing. :)

Hey, out of curiosity, are you still planning on joining the game? If you are just let me know. Thanks.
Feel free to hop on over to the discussion thread to iron out details, ask questions, and figure out how you want to make your entrance if you would like to join the game. There's a link a couple of posts up. You'll need to give her a couple more levels, but don't see any other immediate problems. The anti-dragon sentiments in Agartha don't extend to the miniature variety.
Are there gods and goddesses in this world. I've an idea for a centaur cleric of Shelyn or her counterpart. :)
Yes there are. Any that you like. Thus far most of the gods that we've used are a bit more well, made up on the spot, to be honest, but that doesn't mean you can't worship a more established deity. It sounds like a good concept. Are you thinking you'd like to be a student or a teacher?
Please do not be intimidated by the wall of text near the end there. One of the other players has a cool but very complicated concept, and we're still working some of the bugs out. Sometimes when we have to just make up rules to fit a concept they don't work exactly right the first time and have to be adjusted a bit first.
Also, I'm going to be working on a quick primer of everything you need to know about Agartha this weekend, so hopefully that will make it easier for newbies to catch up and figure out what's going on.

SPECIAL ABILITIES<br>
=================================================<br>
Bloodline Arcana Whenever you cast a spell of the compulsion subschool, increase the spell's DC by +2.
Cantrips You learn a number of cantrips, or 0-level spells. These spells are cast like any other spells, but they do not consume any slots and may be used again.
Dragon Traits (Ex) Dragons have Immunity to magic sleep effects and paralysis effects. Dragons breathe, eat, and sleep.
Fey Bloodline The capricious nature of the fey runs in your family due to some intermingling of fey blood or magic. This tends to make you more emotional than most, prone to bouts of extreme joy and rage.
Fey Magic (Su) You may reroll any caster level check made to overcome spell resistance. You must decide to use this ability before the results are revealed. You must take the second result, even if it is worse. You can use this ability at will.
Fleeting Glance (Su) You can turn invisible for 15 rounds per day. This ability functions as greater invisibility. These rounds need not be consecutive.
Immunity to Magical Sleep (Ex) You are never subject to magic sleep effects.
Immunity to Paralysis (Ex) You can never be paralyzed.
Laughing Touch (Su) You can cause a creature to burst out laughing for 1 round as a melee touch attack. A laughing creature can only take a move action and can defend itself normally. Once a creature has been affected by laughing touch, it is immune to its effects for 1 day. You can use this ability 7 times a day.
Poison (Ex) Sting-injury; save Fort DC 14; frequency 1/minute for 10 minutes; effect sleep for 1 minute; cure 1 save.
Telepathy (Su) You can mentally communicate with any other creature within 60 feet that has a language. It is possible to address multiple creatures at once telepathically, although maintaining a telepathic conversation with more than one creature at a time is just as difficult as simultaneously speaking and listening to multiple people at the same time.
Woodland Stride (Ex) You can move through any sort of undergrowth (such as natural thorns, briars, overgrown areas, and similar terrain) at your normal speed and without taking damage or suffering any other impairment. Thorns, briars, and overgrown areas that have been magically manipulated to impede motion, however, still affect you.
Hey, out of curiosity, are you still planning on joining the game? If you are just let me know. Thanks.
Sorry, been out of touch lately. Unfortunately no. I've got too many school obligations. Though I still love the character concept. Feel free to steal it.

If your schedule ever opens up, consider this a standing invitation to join the game.
