St. Margaret's: the OOC Community

Come one, come all! It’s Crack Plot time!

The mod team has put our heads together and whipped up a fun 24 hour event! On April Fools Day (Friday, April 1st), there’ll be a strange disturbance in the force. In the morning, your character will get up like normal, perhaps prepare some April Fools pranks like normal, perhaps pretend to be sick to avoid some April Fools pranks, perhaps head to early morning runs or make their way to class, and then, just before the bell tolls for classes to commence, WHAMMY. ( It happens. )

Also of general importance unrelated to the crack plot:

The full moon nights are March 22, 23, and 24.

The game calendar is updated! Take a LOOK We have added such events as upcoming field trips, the music/dance recital, the play, spring formal, yearboook day, and graduation.

If you weren't here for Easter last year, we have an exciting game event scheduled for the day in the form of a House competition Easter Egg Hunt. The House with the biggest egg collection will be given the privileged of choosing the theme for the upcoming Spring Formal Dance. More information on this later.

Cheers!

Hey guys! I just wanted to say that if anyone wanted to have their character encounter the ~thing in the woods, let us know! Next week we've got the next stage of plot movement, but not until after Halloween, so everyone has until then to play around with the figure in the woods. It'll be just a shadow, hostile feeling, but it leaves no trace, no scent. If they pursue it, it'll eventually disappear at the graveyard. if they run from it, it'll chase them all the way to the castle walls.

A lot of this plot depends on character participation, so please! If you wanna get involved, GET INVOLVED :D We're not gonna hold your hand, no worries, so just have fun with it. But no pressure if you're not interested. Jussayin ;)

For The Mods

PS! Full moon nights this month are Octover 26th (TONIGHT!), 27th, and 28th.

Tonight is a full moon and more importantly, it's a SUPERMOON! Also, it's a lunar eclipse~ Oooo~

:D

Greetings Players!

We're very sorry for the late notice on this and thank you for your patience. The mod-team is encumbered by RL things this week. This week (May 25-29th) is FINAL EXAMS. That means your students and teachers are already neck deep in tests.

Next week will be the last week of school for all students. Teachers are probably going easy in these last days after exams, but some may be sticklers expecting performance! NOTE: If you don't think your student is going to do well on tests enough to move ahead a grade, let us know! Summer courses are offered to make up for things like that. ALSO: Please let us know if your teacher is going to be doing any summer courses and what it is! We'll add it to the curriculum page. Summer courses will commence in July!

The full moon nights are June 1-3, conveniently after finals so our weres aren't losing sleep on top of cramming studies.

Graduation is Friday June 5th! After commencement ceremony, students are officially free-range for the summer and our Experts will be leaving the school. REMEMBER: Expert Level characters are allowed to stay in the game until the end of summer, at which point they'll be moved to Emeritus Status.

Go. Play. Have Fun.

Cheers!
The Mods

Full moon this January will be on the 4th, 5th and 6th.

( What will happen to the Experts? )

In terms of softening the blow, I will also up the character limit by one. Cheers!

On September first second! (because Labor Day, apparently), classes will start anew. Summer classes will have ended this week, so the last week before the classes start is entirely empty for the students to enjoy as they will. Most students will be returning from their homes in this week. For your characters, this means that this is the perfect time to update their curriculums. Which subjects will they be taking this year? You can leave it unchanged and handwave it, if you wish, but this is the perfect moment to update the classes, optimize them for RP purposes and let them reflect the changes your characters have been through. The characters who joined this summer needn’t bother with this, of course.

House Mentors will be announced later. This post, however, is the place to be if your character wants to be a captain for a sports team. (Mickey, for example, is the captain of the soccer team.) Consider if it’s suitable for your character to be a captain. If two characters are vying for the same position, the mod will decide, basing on seniority and history of the characters. The mod always has the last say in this.

Moon days this month are September 8th, September 9th and September 10th.

The heat wave is officially over.




Questions? Comments? Have at in the comment section below!

It's August! A heatwave has rolled into Camden Wharf, making it less of a nice summer and more the kind of summer that makes you want to stay inside with the curtains drawn and the airco in maximum overdrive. Too bad the Academy doesn't have much of an airco... It will end next Wednesday with a beautiful, night-long thunderstorm.

Secondly, a plot thread has been weaved! All will be revealed in time, but for now: someone is sifting through the minds of the students and teachers when they sleep, triggering nightmares and dragging up their deepest fears. People may start sleeping badly, getting visits from someone who seems like an evil sandman. There won't be nightmares every night, but there will be nightmares: vivid and scary. Even the vampires will feel uneasy when they've retreated to their own haunts to do their meditating, though their nightmares will be more like daydreams, vague and hard to grab a hold off.

In their dreams, characters may witness a person observing them. He will be clad in an endless robe of midnight purple, which will be decorated with silver, shimmering moons. Have at!

Full moon days this month are August 9th, 10th and 11th.

It's June! This month will be a plot-light month on my end, since the mod is finishing his thesis. So, after the Gilligan's Gala, not much will be happening on the school grounds, giving your characters ample opportunity to get away from the school for a bit.

All characters will graduate to the next year automatically. If you do not want this to happen, answer to this post, and your character will be held back in their year.

As Mr. Kaden mentioned, full moon nights are June 12, 13 and 14.

Furthermore, I would like to remind all players that I encourage player involvement when it comes to plots and world-building. If you have an idea for a plot that affects more than just your own characters, or if you want to add an amenity to the town or school, feel free to drop me a line. I will always retain the right to veto, but I will do my best to incorporate your vision into the game.

Detail: in June, there are plenty of ladybirds covering the school grounds. Most of them are red and black, but some have more outlandish colours.

And, together with the first real snow of the year, a new schoolwide plot appears! Read the first clues here. Something's going to skulk about, killing animals and perhaps other things this December, and it will be drawn to the school...

If you and your characters want to join the plot as victims, holler below! If you're playing a human being (a witch or a psychic) and you want to be more involved, give me a shout as well. All comments will be screened, so there's that. If you don't want your comment screened, do so say so, and I will reveal them. ;-)

Also, the full moon this month will be on the 16th, the 17th and the 18th.

( Werewolves! )

Below, feel free to ask questions or make comments, plot with others players or even shout random stuff. Just have fun with the concept, and creativity is, as always, encouraged.
