The Institution of Silver Lake - Sign Up and Discussion

[Daenerys]

Well, after talking to a few people, a High School RP would be welcomed so, here goes nothing. ^^

Basic information about the school

The Institution of Silver Lake is over 500 years old, and is located in England, far away from any cities and towns, in the countryside. A lake, Silver Lake, runs through the school grounds, it's called Silver Lake because it's said to glow silver when it turns dark - emitting an almost-eerie glow, rumored to stir strange and irrational emotions within people.

The Institution is a boarding school, and it excepts all children from the ages 11-18. Discipline at the school is strict, students can be punished in various ways, from the standard detention, to being locked in a cold, dark room for 3 days. Although few teachers choose to use the harsher punishments, their are a few sadistic ones who relish being able to give misbehaving students a thorough beating. The students sleep in dormitories, each dorm can hold 5 students, and prefects, 2 in each year from 3 upwards, can have their own rooms if they so wish.

The Prologue

Our story starts in December, it is unusually cold this year, the school is swamped by fog. 3 Students have gone missing, one of them was found dead, with a sinister note pinned to her face - I'll be back. Despite this, the school remains open, and the faculty remains determined to keep the school functioning as normally as possible. This is where you come in, are you a teacher, investigating your fellow staff members? Are you a student, scared and disturbed? Do you know more about these disappearings? Have any of your friends gone missing? Do you think that you'll be next?

Are you a hero, or a villain? A sinner, or a saint?

You decide.

Miscellaneous RP Information
​

Depending on your age, you will be in a certain year :

11-12 - Year 1
12-13 - Year 2
13-14 - Year 3
14-15 - Year 4
15-16 - Year 5
16-17 - Year 6
17-18 - Year 7

Each Year group from Year 3 onwards will have two prefects, the Teacher who is head of that year will decide who will be the two prefects.

Classes will be as follows

Period 1 - 9:15-10:10
Period 2 - 10:10-11:05
Break 11:05-11:25
Period 3 - 11:25-12:20
Lunch 12:20-1:20
Period 4: 1:20-2:20
Period 5: 2:20 - 3:20
After School Clubs : 3:20 - 4:30

Lockdown - no student allowed outside the dorms - starts at 9pm and finishes at 7am the next day. Students caught outside during lockdown will be punished.

Most of the action will take place after school and such, but it's probably more realistic to have a schedule that the kids would follow.

Well, that should be everything you need to know, although this is my first time at making an RP, so tell me if I'm missing anything, and don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions ^^

[Daenerys]

Thanks for signing up guys ^^ I'll post my characters bio now too ^^

Name: Kevin "Kai" Wilson

Gender: Male

Age: 16

Year: 5

Teacher or Student: Student

Basic Info: Kevin is a loud, clever, intelligent kid. He likes to be the center of attention, and he has friends in every class. He hates the name Kevin, as he was named after his father, who betrayed the family and ran away when Kai was just 3 years old, leaving his mother to raise him and his 4 siblings all by herself. He is the only child in his family to go to the school, as instead of paying for it, he won a scholarship, allowing him to go to Silver Lake for free.

Being the youngest of 4 children he is used to getting ignored at home, which is why he so desperately craves attention at school. He has dyed his hair bright blue in a bid to get noticed by his mother when he goes home. He has been badly effected by the disappearances, becoming quieter and secluding himself more often.

His Girlfriend, Sabrina, was one of the students who went missing, but, she wasn't the one who was found dead. So, Kai clings to the possibility that she may still be alive.

Likes: Gaming, Reading, Writing, Learning, Music, Hanging out, Making out with his girlfriend, Movies, Martial Arts.

Dislikes: Being alone, homework, being ignored.
