The Occult | Period 1 | Tuesday
So, it was time for her first class. Paige had found the school just fine and taken a moment to marvel at the fact that it was a damn castle. She hadn't seen buildings like this in a long, long time. After that moment of awe had come and gone, Paige had slipped inside and found her classroom.
She didn't write anything on the board of do anything else ridiculous like that. Instead, she took a seat behind the desk and waited. She didn't really know what to expect of the class but she figured most of them would be amaurotic.
Eventually, the small group of students filed in and took a seat. Paige stood up and circled around the desk so she could lean against it.
"Hello." Good start, obviously. "My name is Paige Mahoney and I'm really rather new to both America and teaching. To give you a little background on myself, I was born in Ireland but I come from London though it's probably not like the London some of you might have visited. You've all signed up to learn about all things revolving around the occult so either you're interested or chose classes by closing your eyes and pointing."
Either one was a sound option to her. "We'll start everything out by getting some background on each other so I know where we stand. For instance, I'll let you all know that I'm clairvoyant. Specifically, a dream walker."
She didn't really think any of the students were going to be wanting her power so she could be a little more open about it. She was still adjusting to the lack of NVD or SVD. "I've a connection to the aether, or the spiritual realm. Right now, in addition to seeing you all, I can see your auras as well. And some of you might sense a few spirits around me. I keep a few close by for protection. I'm not sighted so I can't see the spirits but I sense them."
Paige paused and gave a quiet, almost rueful laugh. "I'm still getting used to being able to say these things in meatspace. Or, you know, the corporeal world. But, I have been assured that this place is different then where I came from."
Paige smiled briefly and hoped that was a decent enough introduction for the moment. "In this class, we'll be exploring a few different subsets of the occult. We'll learn why people seem to fear occult studies and objects and why they don't always have to. I'll be looking for your input on certain things since my knowledge of some things is limited due to a variety of factors. But first, again, let's learn about each other. All I'd like to know is your name, if you have any experience with the occult and if there's anything you'd like to learn."
Paige circled back around and took her seat. "And, from what I hear, I'm allowed a teacher's assistant. If anyone wants that job, let me know. For now, let's start with the introductions."

Re: OOC [01/07]
In canon, their 'heartcores' feel like:
Sholeh--brook of bright waters
Zeela--gathering storms: lashing winds and heat lightning
Zhahar--a calm summer lake
Also, Paige won't pick up anything demonic from the girls because they're not actually demons. They just think they are. It's very Tara from Buffy, only their whole race has been taught they're demonic. They're not.
Hopefully that's helpful to you, apologies if it isn't.

So, thank you!
