You awake in your house one morning. It feels like a normal day. Well, as normal of a day for someone like you. You go through your morning as normal of a routine as you do. Then, the mail arrives. You and your family, if you have one, find this weird because it is a Sunday and the mail usually doesn't arrive on Sunday. Or maybe you don't get mail, depending on who you are. Either way, you receive a letter.[/i]
Dear Recipient of this letter,
You have been watched over for most of your life. You, whether you know it or not, are special. You have a gift unlike any other. Through whatever the means you have received this gift, we are interested in you. We know of others with gifts who are like you. Inexperienced, surprised, or unsure. We can help you. We are Eidikos Academy. A school for the youth such like yourself, with gifts and powers uncontrolled or wishing to be further controlled. If you are interested, an address is located on the back of this letter. Arrive on the first day of September, which is the first day of schooling. We look forward to seeing you, and hope you will take this opportunity.
Sincerely, The Staff of Eidikos Academy
INFORMATION
Hello, I am Entei to all who know me for RPs in the past or participating. After a long while, I decided to try to make another RP. I found one RP that was attempted to be recreated and after discussion, I am making this RP as a revival for that RP. If the letter was not obvious, this is an RP around a school for individuals with powers and magic and stuff. They will be brought here to learn to use their powers better, to hopefully becomes defenders of the world in their later lives.
RULES:
1. Obviously, no godmodding, metagaming, powerplaying, etc. Basic rules I hope everyone can follow.
2. Keep tennis posting to a minimum. If it is an important conversation between two characters or a character and themself, then it is fine. If it is three or more characters, please allow time for others to post to keep things flowing and from being confusing.
3. I will take the rule of the RP this is based around. If you have some power much stronger than everyone, give it a side effect. Like if you stop time, your body suffers depending on how long time was frozen, or you can summon things but at the sacrifice of blood or other dead corpses. Set limits for yourself.
4. As for posting, let us know if you are not able to post for a while. I understand if something comes up serious. That is acceptable. And if it is a prolonged period of time, then I will take over the character and move them around, keeping to their personality if interactions happen, but mostly keeping them in the background.
5. Romance is allowed. I would prefer PG-13, as this is a school. If you wish to go beyond, PM each other on it or put it in a spoiler in the chat so those who don't wish to see those things don't have to.
6. Unless given permissions, I control all teachers and villains and such.

((AND NOW))
It is a calm and quiet morning. You awake in the hotel or house or wherever you stayed the night on your way here. It is a small town just outside of Des Moines, Iowa. It wasn't exactly marked on the map well, and it seems like less of a town and more of a road stop, with two gas stations under the same name, a diner, and a couple of motels and inns. You obviously notice the stranger looking characters of this area, as all of you have some rather distinguishing characteristics about you. Then you follow the rest of the instructions to get to the Academy. You find one of several bus drivers, cattle herders, or truck drivers, and give them the code phrase. Then, they take you south. But things start to change. The landscape looks nothing like the rest of what you've seen. It goes from fields and roads into a thick forest that you wonder how anyone could move anything through here. And after a short while, you reach a large mountain range far vaster than anything you've seen before. You meet with a guide at the entrance with a yak to put your luggage and stuff onto. The guide leads you through the mountains, across chasms, and eventually into a clearing. When you emerge, you see it. The magnificent academy you journeyed here to get to. Welcome, to Eidikos Academy.
The Academy itself is not open currently, however the massive city you have arrived at is bustling with activity and places for you to go.

Emmett slouched in his private train room, staring outside the dark window into the night. He was chewing a recent creation; A squid tentacle charcoal roasted with peanut butter and honey. It was dried and salted, and the smell permeated the entire 4 seater room. Emmett couldn't help but chuckle.
"Disgusting..." He laughed some more, then swallowed the tentacle. He suddenly lurched forward and gripped the railing below the window, and held his stomach. His eyes were wide open.
This is a winner for sure...
He sat back down again and sighed, glad he didn't puke everywhere. He chuckled some more and leaned back, then drifted off to sleep.
Emmett woke up to the blinding lights of the morning sun shining through the window. He got up, grabbed his suitcase, and left his room, certain he didn't leave anything behind. He followed the steps instructed on the letter, and made his way to the academy.
This place is so bland... Why would an academy be out here?
They approached a mountain where a guide waited for them. They began hiking up the mountain, though Emmett couldn't be bothered complaining. Soon, though, they reached a clearing and saw the vast city.
"How the hell did they hide this?!"
Making their way down, and after a thanks and a little tip, Emmett strolled through the streets of this huge city. With absolute no clue of what to do, he decided to just journey through the city to see what it's all about.

You wander about the city and arrive in the town square, bustling with excitement and activity. People of all kinds wander here, with looks and gifts beyond any seen by yourself. Dwarves, elves, other such fantasy races. Spider people, people made of stone, aliens even. Stores of all kinds with all kinds of languages on the signs are scattered about.
Emmett
You adventure towards the residential area, where housing for everyone here is located and perhaps eventual housing for yourself after the Academy. You wander into a smaller street where two men, one a man with spiny hands and a spiny beard, and the other a shorter man with tattoos all over himself in what appear to be an ancient language, are harassing a young woman, possibly another student with the looks of age.

Emmett wandered in awe. His family's diner might have been popular, but it sure wasn't posh and refined like this place. A few random streets later, however, and he found a scene of interest, two guys harassing some girl. Emmett leaned against a nearby wall and chewed on his horrendous squid tentacle combination. His arms were folded.
He raised his voice to get all of their attention. "Yo, what's happening here?"
Already Emmett knew this might not go down well, but he already had a plan... And it would have to do with the disgusting tentacle hanging from his teeth.

Morning finally arrived brightening the darken skies, Non was up early today getting himself prepared before due time since it is the day that might change his life for better or worse, He dressed himself in black jacket and bring up his hood to both block the irritating sunlight and to avoid others. He was rather skeptical about the letter at first but curious about their knowledge on his power, curious enough to the point where he decides to see the place for himself. He walk through the front door of the house towards a car in wait for him up front, for a moment he look back at the house attempting to bid farewell but hold himself back to such a pointless action, he enter the car and begin his journey to Eidikos Academy.
The place wasn't exactly what Non had expected, the place felt rather empty while the academy is yet to be seen. Upon several instructions, the stop at the entrance within the forest which lead up towards the mountain where a guide and a yak had await them along with several others of Non's own age. It seems like only the invited are to pass beyond this point, Non get out of his car along with his luggage and follow the guide and the letter instruction. After quite a distant the group arrived at the academy location that have a city surrounding it, the group then march down towards the bustling city.
The sunlight shined through the window of the hotel and woke Alex up. Still with bags in his eyes he got out of bed, washed up his face, and got dressed. Well, this is it.. Alex looked at the letter he got and went towards a truck driver and did what the instructions told him.
Alex opened up the passenger side of the truck and sat down as the truck slowly took off towards a thick forest A forest? Hm. Must be like a sort of shortcut I thought as the truck moved along the dirt path.
The forest slowly ended and it soon turned into mountains as the truck driver pulls over. "Good luck kid." The truck driver says before going back into the forest. I see the guide and he leads me through the mountains and chasms.
What almost seems like hours the guide and the yak finally stop. "Here we are!" The guide said. "Welcome to Eidikos Academy!"
I gazed around the huge city with eyes as wide as a kid in a candy store. I think i'm going to enjoy it here! Alex thought.
And without warning he dashed off into the city wondering what will await him.

Emmett
The spiny man looked over to Emmett. He snickered. "Hey, Eddy. Look what the breeze brought us. Another poor lost kid to harass." His voice was rough, and he had a thick German accent. He walked up to Emmett, stroking a couple of his needles in his beard. "So, are you going to get lost, or will we have to take care of you as well."
Peter
As you look through the stores, you find a couple of vials at a shop run by a blue skinned human that restore stamina a decent amount, however when the stamina gained is used up, the user will suffer bodily harm, such as weakened skin, bruises, and possible broken limbs. A decent price is given for them, and the man appears to be open to a bartering session.
Non
You arrive into the entrance of the city, an area bustling with shipments from various parts of the world and many areas unknown to you or the others. Shortly after your arrival, a large amount of guards gather in the middle of what appears to be a plaza of sorts. The guards call forth those around to witness a spectacle. One guard emerges from a building nearby with a small black scaled dragon next to it. The dragon begins to perform tricks and stunts and actually seems to enjoy itself.
Alex
You dash off into another part of the market district. This one seems dedicated to the eateries and various food stores of the city. Strange foods of all kinds are around. What appears to be alien chickens hanging on drying racks, delicious and succulent looking meats and fruits are for sale all over. A literal candy store which claims to have the grandest fudge in all of the lands is located to the north.
Drew
You find yourself in a district of the city dedicated to the strange. Magic shops were located all over, along with fortune tellers and many people performing acts and such with their powers. They don't seem to keep the money given to them. After one person fills their hat or bin or such with money or objects, they walk over to a large pit and pour their bounty inside. It can be assumed that it is a group bounty for all to share and to spend on the betterment of the community.

Emmett wasn't a fighter. All he had really done his life was make food, and though that food was spectacular enough to bend people to his will if he wished, he never used that to his advantage. However, now he thought otherwise.
But I need to be quick...
Emmett, without realising, began to slow down time, and shoved a disgusting tentacle into the man's mouth. It was quick enough that his age hardly changed, and quick enough that Emmett still wasn't aware of his gift. But he knew that tentacle would not be kind to the man, as the only people who can resist - and barely - the tentacle's disgusting flavour, was Emmett himself, and of course his father. He smirked, unless this guy had no tongue, he'd be crawling on the ground in no time at all.

Emmett
The man began to make incomprehensible noises as he tried pulling the tentacle off of his tongue, which you could tell when he tried to pull it off, his tongue was spiny as well, making this difficult. He got the tentacle off and ripped the spines off of his tongue, new ones growing in their place. He looked back at his colleague. "Eddy. Change of plans. We make this kid the new paint on the bricks."
Eddy let go of the girl and rubbed his arm, the tattoos glowing and a small dagger came out of the arm. As he did this, the girl jumped back and reared back a fist. Eddy turned around to her fist being engulfed in blue flames, being struck in the face and sent into the wall. The spiny man turned to the girl in surprise.
Peter
You don't find much of anything else in the stores.
Drew
You wander into a store where the man running the place had a long, silky, grey beard. He wore round sunglasses, even indoors. The place seemed to sell everything and anything. Trinkets and staves were lining the walls. Shoes, other clothing items, sunglasses, glass bottles, anything really. The man waves to you when you walk inside of his store.

The city is pretty lively in comparison to the town that was separated by the forest especially around the area that seems to be a plaza of sort. After the guide finishes their job they bid their guests farewell and disappear into the crowd. Without much expectation he took out his letter and decides to follow the next instruction if there is one, seems like the safest option within this new city unknown to him. Right before he can took a glance at the letter, a group of guards march into the plaza and invite peoples to come and see their performance or rather a performance by a small black scale dragon. Amuse by the appearance of the dragon, Non dive deeper into the crowd near the plaza and rank himself on the front row spectating a dragon's show.
Alex slowed down to a walk looking around at all the different foods. Some of the things he saw looked good. But a lot of other foods didn't look too appealing... I probably should've brought more money with me.. Some of these look really good! Alex then passes by some strange meat that looked like it contained leaf's in it Note. SOME of these look good. Alex was ready to head back until he saw a candy store dead ahead. You know what? Why not! Alex then dashed off towards the candy store zipping past some other foods until slowing down right in front of the candy store.

Huh, guess he liked it?
Emmett had his arms folded and he blankly stared at the girl punching Eddy. He tapped his foot in wonder.
Maybe I should work on the smell... Yeah, because I dried and salted them, the pungency remains low compared to some of my, uh, other combinations.
He chuckled, still quite oblivious to what was happening in front of him, as if he forgot all of a sudden. He suddenly changed pose, on arm resting on his hip, the other under his chin. He stared slightly upwards.
I wonder if I'll be able to use the kitchens at the academy?
As if remembering something he looked ahead of him again. Then he looked at the girl, then back at the man. He grinned and pointed at the fallen man, and started cracking up. He bent over and slapped his knee, almost comically. Emmett attempted to speak between laughter.
"Look..." He pointed at him some more and bawled out laughing again. He couldn't even properly speak yet. He stared at the men and wiped his tears, still laughing.

Emmett
The spiny man turned back to Emmett and grew spines all over his arm. He reared to throw a punch and then sighed, deciding it wasn't worth it. He threw his spines off of his arm into the ground, creating a smokescreen of some kind. When the smoke faded, the man was gone. Eddy glowed on his tattoos and seemed to melt into nothing.
The girl sighed and blew the hair out of her face. She sat down on the ground against a nearby tree.
Non
The dragon continues it's show as it dances around the sky, creating different colored flames to form patterns and such, amazing the crowd. The dragon finishes the show by engulfing itself in flames, reemerging in beautiful white and gold scales. The crowd applauds the dragon as its scales return to their original color. The crowd goes back to their normal business as the guards leave the dragon and one man in a cloak, hiding his face, in the center of the plaza.
Peter
You find an odd restaurant that sells egg based dishes. The menu has everything normal on it, but with a variety of eggs and meats to go with the dishes.
Alex
The candy store seemed to sell a variety of fruit based candies, fudge, chocolates, and sugary delights. When approached, it actually seems to be a full sweets store, also selling baked goods from cakes to doughnuts to croissants and all other things. The man in charge was an older man with six arms. He had a kind face that looked like it had tragedy but also learned and developed into a joyous cadence.
Drew
The old man seemed to mutter something in an ancient tongue incomprehensible to Drew. A voice in the same language could be heard from the back, this voice was very stern and matured. The voice spoke in a human tongue now, having a more smooth and gentle yet developed and mature voice to it. "Mr. Edgar can't speak in most mortal's tongues. He speaks that of the dragon. Come to the back, we can talk there."

"Eh..?"
Emmett stared at the void spot where the men stood. His mouth was an open smile, his eyes half closed, and he looked totally blank to the situation. A couple seconds later he regained his composure and stuffed his hands in his pockets, then walked over to the girl. At the same time he pulled out a case of tentacles, took one out and chewed the end of it with his teeth, then put the case back in his pocket, along with his hands. He stopped about a metre from the girl and looked down at her. For a split second he wasn't smiling, but he quickly grinned.
"That was pretty cool! Sorry I didn't do much, I guess all I did was help distract 'em!" Emmett chuckled and scratched the back of his head. "Well it looks like you handled yourself better than I did, at that. Pretty cool! I'm guessing you have a power, huh?"

Emmett
The girl looked Emmett up and down. She scoffed. She spoke in somewhat difficult English with a French accent. "What gave idea, imbécile. Did you come to gawk like boys who roughed up me?" She spat to the side, the spit being a blue flame.

Drew
The man in the back wasn't exactly a man. He was an image out of some child's nightmare. A large half-spider who it is surprising how he fit inside of the door to get to the room. He stood at about twelve feet tall. He had a devilish grin on his face. "Welcome to my store. I am Edrid Varicos, proprietor of this shop. As you see, Mr. Edgar is the salesman. We aren't used to those not able to speak in the language of the dragon here, so he doesn't know how to speak your language. I've been teaching him slowly." Edrid picked up a strawberry from a bowl and ate it.

"Well, no, I just came to the academy 'cause I got this bad boy." He grinned and pulled out his letter. "At first I thought this was cooking related but I don't see how your 'power' could be related to cooking..." Emmett began to trail off again.
"Well... Maybe you could start fires easier for a campfire..? Or you could quickly heat things? Hmm, actually there are some dishes that require the touch of a blow torch so maybe you would come in handy..."
He slowly began to mumble and he held his hand in a thinking position, and stared off into the distance.

The show went on for quite sometime with dragon showing off its skills and tricks, the last trick was an amusing sight of the dragon engulfing itself in flames and emerge a different color. A round of applause was given to the performer, then without further interest people started to scatter and went back to minding their own businesses. After the crowd separated, a lone figure is seen standing at the previous stage area. The figure was cover in thick cloak hiding away his face similarly to what Non is doing at the moment. With no where else to go Non decides to approach the cloak figure and speak "That was a good performance".

[i]Emmett[/i]
The girl sighs and lights her finger, pointing it at Emmett. "You gonna keep rambling, imbécile? [/i][i]Je m'en fous.[/i] I am here for school. And don't get in my way." She gets up and begins to walk off. "Unless we work together. The name is Alice. Alice Beaulieu." She keeps walking off.
[i]Peter[/i]
The servers bring you an egg dish over rice. The egg is from what can be explained as a blue feathered parrot from an ancient and extinct planet, now held in a sanctuary somewhere in an alien zoo.
[i]Non[/i]
The cloaked figure speaks in a nervous female voice. "Oh, t-thank you." She holds out her hand to shake Non's hand.
The dragon begins to morph into a more humanoid figure, about a foot taller than an average person.

It seems like only the invited are to pass beyond this point, Non get out of his car along with his luggage and follow the guide and the letter instruction. After quite a distant the group arrived at the academy location that have a city surrounding it, the group then march down towards the bustling city.
The sunlight shined through the window of the hotel and woke Alex up. Still with bags in his eyes he got out of bed, washed up his face, and got dressed. Well, this is it.. Alex looked at the letter he got and went towards a truck driver and did what the instructions told him.
Alex opened up the passenger side of the truck and sat down as the truck slowly took off towards a thick forest A forest? Hm. Must be like a sort of shortcut I thought as the truck moved along the dirt path.
The forest slowly ended and it soon turned into mountains as the truck driver pulls over. "Good luck kid." The truck driver says before going back into the forest. I see the guide and he leads me through the mountains and chasms.
What almost seems like hours the guide and the yak finally stop. "Here we are!" The guide said. "Welcome to Eidikos Academy!"
I gazed around the huge city with eyes as wide as a kid in a candy store. I think i'm going to enjoy it here! Alex thought.
And without warning he dashed off into the city wondering what will await him.
Emmett
The spiny man looked over to Emmett. He snickered. "Hey, Eddy. Look what the breeze brought us. Another poor lost kid to harass." His voice was rough, and he had a thick German accent. He walked up to Emmett, stroking a couple of his needles in his beard. "So, are you going to get lost, or will we have to take care of you as well."
Peter
As you look through the stores, you find a couple of vials at a shop run by a blue skinned human that restore stamina a decent amount, however when the stamina gained is used up, the user will suffer bodily harm, such as weakened skin, bruises, and possible broken limbs. A decent price is given for them, and the man appears to be open to a bartering session.
Non
You arrive into the entrance of the city, an area bustling with shipments from various parts of the world and many areas unknown to you or the others. Shortly after your arrival, a large amount of guards gather in the middle of what appears to be a plaza of sorts. The guards call forth those around to witness a spectacle. One guard emerges from a building nearby with a small black scaled dragon next to it. The dragon begins to perform tricks and stunts and actually seems to enjoy itself.
Alex
You dash off into another part of the market district. This one seems dedicated to the eateries and various food stores of the city. Strange foods of all kinds are around. What appears to be alien chickens hanging on drying racks, delicious and succulent looking meats and fruits are for sale all over. A literal candy store which claims to have the grandest fudge in all of the lands is located to the north.
Drew
You find yourself in a district of the city dedicated to the strange. Magic shops were located all over, along with fortune tellers and many people performing acts and such with their powers. They don't seem to keep the money given to them. After one person fills their hat or bin or such with money or objects, they walk over to a large pit and pour their bounty inside. It can be assumed that it is a group bounty for all to share and to spend on the betterment of the community.

Emmett wasn't a fighter. All he had really done his life was make food, and though that food was spectacular enough to bend people to his will if he wished, he never used that to his advantage. However, now he thought otherwise.
But I need to be quick...
Emmett, without realising, began to slow down time, and shoved a disgusting tentacle into the man's mouth. It was quick enough that his age hardly changed, and quick enough that Emmett still wasn't aware of his gift. But he knew that tentacle would not be kind to the man, as the only people who can resist - and barely - the tentacle's disgusting flavour, was Emmett himself, and of course his father. He smirked, unless this guy had no tongue, he'd be crawling on the ground in no time at all.
Emmett
The man began to make incomprehensible noises as he tried pulling the tentacle off of his tongue, which you could tell when he tried to pull it off, his tongue was spiny as well, making this difficult. He got the tentacle off and ripped the spines off of his tongue, new ones growing in their place. He looked back at his colleague. "Eddy. Change of plans. We make this kid the new paint on the bricks."
Eddy let go of the girl and rubbed his arm, the tattoos glowing and a small dagger came out of the arm. As he did this, the girl jumped back and reared back a fist. Eddy turned around to her fist being engulfed in blue flames, being struck in the face and sent into the wall. The spiny man turned to the girl in surprise.
Peter
You don't find much of anything else in the stores.
Drew
You wander into a store where the man running the place had a long, silky, grey beard. He wore round sunglasses, even indoors. The place seemed to sell everything and anything. Trinkets and staves were lining the walls. Shoes, other clothing items, sunglasses, glass bottles, anything really. The man waves to you when you walk inside of his store.

Non von Visconti
The city is pretty lively in comparison to the town that was separated by the forest especially around the area that seems to be a plaza of sort. After the guide finishes their job they bid their guests farewell and disappear into the crowd. Without much expectation he took out his letter and decides to follow the next instruction if there is one, seems like the safest option within this new city unknown to him. Right before he can took a glance at the letter, a group of guards march into the plaza and invite peoples to come and see their performance or rather a performance by a small black scale dragon. Amuse by the appearance of the dragon, Non dive deeper into the crowd near the plaza and rank himself on the front row spectating a dragon's show.
Alex slowed down to a walk looking around at all the different foods. Some of the things he saw looked good. But a lot of other foods didn't look too appealing... I probably should've brought more money with me.. Some of these look really good! Alex then passes by some strange meat that looked like it contained leaf's in it Note. SOME of these look good. Alex was ready to head back until he saw a candy store dead ahead. You know what? Why not! Alex then dashed off towards the candy store zipping past some other foods until slowing down right in front of the candy store.
Huh, guess he liked it?
Emmett had his arms folded and he blankly stared at the girl punching Eddy. He tapped his foot in wonder.
Maybe I should work on the smell... Yeah, because I dried and salted them, the pungency remains low compared to some of my, uh, other combinations.
He chuckled, still quite oblivious to what was happening in front of him, as if he forgot all of a sudden. He suddenly changed pose, on arm resting on his hip, the other under his chin. He stared slightly upwards.
I wonder if I'll be able to use the kitchens at the academy?
As if remembering something he looked ahead of him again. Then he looked at the girl, then back at the man. He grinned and pointed at the fallen man, and started cracking up. He bent over and slapped his knee, almost comically. Emmett attempted to speak between laughter.
"Look..." He pointed at him some more and bawled out laughing again. He couldn't even properly speak yet. He stared at the men and wiped his tears, still laughing.
Emmett
The spiny man turned back to Emmett and grew spines all over his arm. He reared to throw a punch and then sighed, deciding it wasn't worth it. He threw his spines off of his arm into the ground, creating a smokescreen of some kind. When the smoke faded, the man was gone. Eddy glowed on his tattoos and seemed to melt into nothing.
The girl sighed and blew the hair out of her face. She sat down on the ground against a nearby tree.
Non
The dragon continues it's show as it dances around the sky, creating different colored flames to form patterns and such, amazing the crowd. The dragon finishes the show by engulfing itself in flames, reemerging in beautiful white and gold scales. The crowd applauds the dragon as its scales return to their original color. The crowd goes back to their normal business as the guards leave the dragon and one man in a cloak, hiding his face, in the center of the plaza.
Peter
You find an odd restaurant that sells egg based dishes. The menu has everything normal on it, but with a variety of eggs and meats to go with the dishes.
Alex
The candy store seemed to sell a variety of fruit based candies, fudge, chocolates, and sugary delights. When approached, it actually seems to be a full sweets store, also selling baked goods from cakes to doughnuts to croissants and all other things. The man in charge was an older man with six arms. He had a kind face that looked like it had tragedy but also learned and developed into a joyous cadence.
Drew
The old man seemed to mutter something in an ancient tongue incomprehensible to Drew. A voice in the same language could be heard from the back, this voice was very stern and matured. The voice spoke in a human tongue now, having a more smooth and gentle yet developed and mature voice to it. "Mr. Edgar can't speak in most mortal's tongues. He speaks that of the dragon. Come to the back, we can talk there."

"Eh..?"
Emmett stared at the void spot where the men stood. His mouth was an open smile, his eyes half closed, and he looked totally blank to the situation. A couple seconds later he regained his composure and stuffed his hands in his pockets, then walked over to the girl. At the same time he pulled out a case of tentacles, took one out and chewed the end of it with his teeth, then put the case back in his pocket, along with his hands. He stopped about a metre from the girl and looked down at her. For a split second he wasn't smiling, but he quickly grinned.
"That was pretty cool! Sorry I didn't do much, I guess all I did was help distract 'em!" Emmett chuckled and scratched the back of his head. "Well it looks like you handled yourself better than I did, at that. Pretty cool! I'm guessing you have a power, huh?"
Emmett
The girl looked Emmett up and down. She scoffed. She spoke in somewhat difficult English with a French accent. "What gave idea, imbécile. Did you come to gawk like boys who roughed up me?" She spat to the side, the spit being a blue flame.

Drew
The man in the back wasn't exactly a man. He was an image out of some child's nightmare. A large half-spider who it is surprising how he fit inside of the door to get to the room. He stood at about twelve feet tall. He had a devilish grin on his face. "Welcome to my store. I am Edrid Varicos, proprietor of this shop. As you see, Mr. Edgar is the salesman. We aren't used to those not able to speak in the language of the dragon here, so he doesn't know how to speak your language. I've been teaching him slowly." Edrid picked up a strawberry from a bowl and ate it.

"Well, no, I just came to the academy 'cause I got this bad boy." He grinned and pulled out his letter. "At first I thought this was cooking related but I don't see how your 'power' could be related to cooking..." Emmett began to trail off again.
"Well... Maybe you could start fires easier for a campfire..? Or you could quickly heat things? Hmm, actually there are some dishes that require the touch of a blow torch so maybe you would come in handy..."
He slowly began to mumble and he held his hand in a thinking position, and stared off into the distance.
Non von Visconti
The show went on for quite sometime with dragon showing off its skills and tricks, the last trick was an amusing sight of the dragon engulfing itself in flames and emerge a different color. A round of applause was given to the performer, then without further interest people started to scatter and went back to minding their own businesses. After the crowd separated, a lone figure is seen standing at the previous stage area. The figure was cover in thick cloak hiding away his face similarly to what Non is doing at the moment. With no where else to go Non decides to approach the cloak figure and speak "That was a good performance".
[i]Emmett[/i]
The girl sighs and lights her finger, pointing it at Emmett. "You gonna keep rambling, imbécile? [/i][i]Je m'en fous.[/i] I am here for school. And don't get in my way." She gets up and begins to walk off. "Unless we work together. The name is Alice. Alice Beaulieu." She keeps walking off.
[i]Peter[/i]
The servers bring you an egg dish over rice. The egg is from what can be explained as a blue feathered parrot from an ancient and extinct planet, now held in a sanctuary somewhere in an alien zoo.
[i]Non[/i]
The cloaked figure speaks in a nervous female voice. "Oh, t-thank you." She holds out her hand to shake Non's hand.
The dragon begins to morph into a more humanoid figure, about a foot taller than an average person.
