Magical Teacher Professor Landry! - Discussion 1: Not Really Normal

[Teal Mage]

Right! Time to formally begin Magical Teacher Professor Landry! After a painfully long battle with a strangely pervasive writer's block, I've finally managed to get the game thread up.

Before we get to the question of what players should be doing in the thread (if you didn't guess already) though, here's a list of players and their profiles!

Jay Miles (Overcast), has a baseball bat.
Michael Jones (IHateMakingNames), loves nature, concrete and tennis!
Jackson Hall (Dracorion), wishes he was a better wizard.
Dalbhach Nuada (Krylo), some Fae sentenced to High School.
Dean William Hunter (krogothwolf), Scottish Dragon Rider.
Astarte Whitewrap (Armored Bishoujo), made a Mummy by her Mommy.
Bartholomew 'Andy' Andrews IV (DanteFalcon), he cheats.
Jin Ifirt (Menarker), he's a Genie. Are you surprised?
Sean Castevet (BardTheFifthLightWarrior), his mom was an Ice Person.
Johanna Imirsdotter (Arhra), is basically a giant snowcone.
Diana Tear (Steel Shadow), carries a camera everywhere!
Sao Opallios (Riin Whitewind), a water elemental tied to the school's river.

Right, for your first post, players will just need to find their way to Professor Landry's classroom in Building Q, first floor, room eleven. Also known as room Q-111. Yes, the other twenty six letters of the alphabet are also probably involved in the campus, but I won't be making a map for the school's grounds - that would complicate things needlessly as the game progresses. Locations will be added as required, but will remain vague, by and large.

Oh, and you can already be sitting in the classroom, if you like, when mysterious hazel-eyed NPC girl shows up.

Anyway, get to the room, toss a few thoughts in, maybe start a conversation - most of you know how this stuff works.

A few other points to cover before I forget:

Players may have been in the school for a little while, depending on their living arrangements. But this is, for everyone, their first day of classes.

Certain relationship characters (particularly parents and younger siblings) may not appear in the game often, since opportunities to bring them into the story may not come up much. For the first post, I'll let players control their relationship characters (not the Principle though, in Menarker's case), so if they want to include them in a short scene, they can. None of them are in Professor Landry's class though, that's a PC only thing. After this, I'll take over a lot of NPCs - but if you've got a scene in mind that you'd like to use them in without having me break up the post, PM me or something like that. Since I don't have a good idea of what they're all like yet, I'll probably say yes, for a while at least.

Dracorion, you and Krogoth will be rooming together. The dragon's not there though, so don't worry about that. She's staying somewhere else in the school.

Yes, there is a personification of Death sitting in the Teacher's Desk. The creepy black aura isn't actually an aura, its actually floating visibly in the air. Professor Landry is very strange! Wearing a Halloween Costume to the first day of classes, so unprofessional.

Oh, and try to specify which desk you're sitting in. There's five rows, each has seven desks in it. Chalkboard's on the front (this would be South) wall, door to the room's on the east wall - which is on the left side of the desks. West (right side) and North (back wall) are blank.

And, in case any of you are wondering, there is a GM generated NPC in your class! Actually, there'll probably be others, including Professor Landry, so get used to the idea of their being around. I'll post this one's bio (even NPCs have bios) a little later - probably when she says her name.

So, are there any questions?
