Time for School

AWRIGHT, LISTEN UP!

Now that I've got yer attention, the name's Hellboy. I been workin' for the better part'a fifty years fer the Bureau of Paranormal Research and Defense, and I am now a teacher here at Fandom High. I'm here because there's a bunch'a ya who know what's out there in the shadows of th' world, some of ya who ARE what's out there in the shadows of th' world, and some who got the powers or abilities to deal with what's out there.

So we're gonna have us a class. Paranormal Studies 101. Every student who signs up is taking the 101 class. There is no discussion of that. I don't care how much experience ya got, you take 201 when I say ya do.

Understand, if ya got paranormal powers or abilities, yer not gonna be forced to take the class. But I am gonna have my eye on you *cracks the knuckles of the enormous stone gauntlet covering his right hand for emphasis*. And havin' powers or abilities ain't a prerequisite fer takin the class. All are welcome. There ain't no textbooks, and all grading will be based on participation- in-class discussion, theory-in-practice, and combat field training.

The classroom is in the basement of the main school building at the very back. And that door wasn't there yesterday, in case anybody's gonna get smart and contradict me. It's a portal that's gonna lead ya to a safe area. It's been enchanted to make sure nobody can get seriously hurt or killed durin' class. My class is also chronofluid, although generally we'll be meetin' every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. First class will be Monday. I know ya all got a busy week startin' things here, so you can rest easy until then. Sign up for the class will be ongoing until Sunday night, by which time I hope the headache this is gonna give me goes away.

There are things I ain't gonna tolerate in class: nazis, cyborg nazi gorillas, elder chaos gods, elder gods from the dark beyond space, killing Catholic priests, sacrificing humans, sacrificing animals, cheating, using magic or scientific performance enhancers and cannibalism. Professor Jerusalem is the exception to that last one, and if ya piss me off you will be fed to him as a midnight snack.

Signup sheet's posted. Make sure I can read yer name.

*Lights up a cigar and walks away.*

This humble one has had scant few experiences with the supernatural, but has dealt with ghosts and deranged spirits before. Perhaps this class is not such a bad idea for one such as myself.
