The Art of War, Week #13 [Period 3, Monday]

[atreideslioness]

"Since our time together is rapidly coming to close, I thought we'd try something a little different today," Ghanima said as the class met in the Danger Shop as handwavily ordered. "Today, we take Tzu a bit literally. Today we're playing with fire."

( But a kingdom that has once been destroyed can never come again into being; nor can the dead ever be brought back to life. )

Care for Magical Creatures; Period One. [ 12/01 ]

This morning, the students would find the danger shop classroom reduced in size by about half. On the blackboard, there was a crude sketch of a great dragon, smoke pouring from his nostrils and jaw gapping open, a dramatic speech bubble proclaiming 'RAWR!' issuing forth from his maw with licking flames. On the opposite wall, there was the moddable collection of weapons, armour, and other items in case anyone wanted to stock up good and well for today's intrepid activity, which, clearly, lied beyond one side of the room. It was overtaken with a great, rocky area, leading into a mountain that disappeared into the ceiling, leaving only a series of deep, dark cavern openings.

"Good morning, class!" Minsc greeted them cheerfully, as usual, but there was a level of anxiousness in his voice. "I hope you feel you are well prepared for today!" Because he sure wasn't; he was going to be very jumpy on the Cancel button today, he feared. "It is time for us to face our dragons! Find your partner, prepare, and enter the cave of your choosing, and hopefully avoid being burned to a crisp!"

"I can answer any questions you may have before going in, and let me take a moment to mention that next week, I would like to do a little Show And Tell! Even if you have just an ordinary creature, bring them in; we will introduce our pets to the class and talk about what about them might be magical. I am sure it will be a nice, quiet departure after today!"

APPLICATIONS FOR TEACHERS AND STUDENTS FOR SPRING 2009

[canadianpopstar.livejournal.com]

To apply, read the following info, click the link to the application form, fill it out for the character you want to play, and send it off!

IMPORTANT THINGS TO NOTE

The early applications from last semester worked very well, so we've decided to continue with them this time around. If a player's application falls into one of the following categories:

a) Student applications where the player does not have a current student, or where the player's only student is leaving at the end of the current semester
b) Teacher applications where the player has not previously had a teacher
c) Applications from new players to the game

and the application is submitted between December 1st and December 14th, we will consider it and, if there are any issues with it, will go back to the player once the application period has ended (December 21st) to give them a chance to make changes. Players in this situation will have five days to make any changes and re-submit their application.

In addition, as previously mentioned, we are no longer accepting applications for students who are seniors during the spring semester application periods.

Application Form
You only need to fill out the parts that are relevant to the type of character you are applying for (ie: if you're a student applicant, don't fill in the stuff marked 'Townies Only').

If you don't get a confirmation email from us within 24 hours, please email us.

Here at Fandom High we have a soft character cap of 10 characters per fandom. (Characters who have graduated or otherwise moved away from the island are not counted towards this.) There are currently no fandoms at full capacity, so feel free to apply for characters from whatever fandom you choose. You can check on your prospective fandom's character count by checking out the character roster on fandomhigh.net (linked above).

Applications close Sunday, December 21, 2008. E-mail administration@fandomhigh.net with any questions and we'll try to respond promptly.

The next application session for students and teachers after this will be in April for a May start. Townie applications are always open.

Got a question? We're here to answer it!
