Hey everyone,
I've gotten quite a positive response from many of you running my TSAB game, and I thank you all for that. However, it doesn't satisfy my needs as a player, and games that are laid back enough to play while you're GMing are rather hard to find. So I decided to do the only option to make sure my needs are met: Make one myself.
And here we are. This RP will be more like the ones run here in the past, in that there is no system or structure, and no big rulebook to download. I will retain some form of control over the game, and when speaking in red text (GM Voice), I will expect you to listen to me. Other than that, it will be a fairly relaxed Slice of Life.
The Setting: Sekigahara Midcchilda High school, a new prestigious private 6 year middle and high school. Only having been open for 9 years now, it is invitation only, and has some of the best teachers in all of Japan. That isn't to say it doesn't have its intrigue, as there is a reason its invitation only, as all new students are bound to find out...
You may play some Nanoha characters, or your own OC. Just remember that they aren't enforcers, dimension-hoppers ir villains of any sort. Yes, there still is magic, but its more like Cardcaptor Sakura: less ccombaty, more useful, and not something you share with your relatives.
A few rules: first off, rule zero is in effect. For those not familiar wiith it, that means [='red']when I say something in red text you listen to me.[/] however, I won't try to interfere a lot; if I do then something has gone terribly wrong. Second, If your character becomes too powerful, his/her house burns down, or some similar horrrible accident occurs, until you either quit or stop your inappropriate behavior. Third, don't be a jerkass to the other players, and Fourth, remember THIS IS A GAME. Don't take everything personally.
With that said, if you want to play, post some basicc ccharacter info in the thread below. You may follow my example.
Name: Chrono Harlaown
Grade: HS Senior
Background: Chrono was invited to SMH during its fourth year of operation, just as it was starting to make waves in the accademic world.

He is the current student council president, and Captain of the Lacrosse team and also a senior member in the Fencing club. He hopes to enjoy hhis last year before heading off to (hopefully) Tokyo U with his long time girlfriend Amy.
And now, since the game has been started, this is where you can post random out of character comments that you want to discuss between players who for whatever reason aren't on chat, and can also dig up all kinds of other information on stuff, starting with the handy table below!

A freeform RPG with no rulebook. It's been a while since I played in one of those. Anyway, since I pretty much joined this site to play in the TSAB RPG, I might as well join here. Now who to play...
You may play some Nanoha characters, or your own OC.
Does that mean any Nanoha characters? If so I call dibs on Nanoha, if shes not available, gimme Hayate instead. qq
I'll come u with the character info later depending on your answer to that.
Yeah I see your point. Let's just see how it goes then and I'm sure I'll be able to find an alternative in case someone else picks up those characters.
I'll be joining, I'll put up the information in a bit.

Sounds intriguing...I'll probably give it a go...just need to work on the profile.
Its fine both of you. I'm not going to put that much importance on this, and it will hopefully be very casual. Not too much time commitment expected, and without any plot to be urgent, hopefully little sense of urgency.
im thinking of joining
This looks interesting, never RP before but something lighthearted like this sounds fun if you'd have me.
Question though will time pass? Such as a year goes by and students graduate? Or as the seasons go on they stay in the same grade?
Also do you have to be a student? Or can you be a teacher or faculty?
Lastly I'm sure making your OC a close relative (Uncle, sister) of a MGLN character is against the rules but a distant relative or sticking yourself into the past alright?
Sorry for the barrage of questions.
Its no problem. I am after all running it, so someone has to answer them, sooner or later. Plus, I've given you far more text in answers than you asked questions.
1) Yes, time will pass. I'm trying to go for a pacing similar to Lucky Star, in terms of things that happen in the RP and the passage of time.
2) Ummmm.... Well, it would certainly be an interesting twist to be a teacher, but I'd like to see your idea before it is approved, since I have made up some background for this and it might be incompatible with that.
3) No, not at all. If you really wanted to, you could be Nanoha's older sister, for example. Like I said above, so long as you get my permission, you can play an in-universe Nanoha character. However, making up a character out of the blue for a relative of a plot-relevant character would be against the rules, since Nanoverse families are complex enough already. Fate's existence has already cost me a lot of time in thought (which is fine, since most of today was busywork at my job because someone else didn't show), and I'd rather not have to do that more than needed.
EDIT: I didn't really answer #3. To the first part: yes. Second part: Not so much, unless you have permission from whoever is playing that character.
And around, around, and around we go~

Name: Joseph "Joey" A. Hernandez
Gender: Male
Grade: 2nd Year High School (Junior)
Age: 17
Background:
The eldest in a family of four children, Joseph is an exchange student from Southeast Asia (and is a gaijin as such) and is determined to finish High School (and eventually College) with a respectable, if not excellent, degree so that he can shoulder the burden of supporting his family. As such, he is serious about his studies and has little time for other things.
He is also a very quiet, private and seemingly aloof person due to a few unfortunate events back in his Grade School and to being a social outcast. His friends, however, would vouch that he can be very amiable and loyal once a person earns his very guarded trust but he is not a physically expressive person so hugs and the like are rare even for his friends.
He heard about Sekigahara Mid-Childa from his Counselor back in his old Elementary/ Secondary School, also a prestigious School in his home country. Seeing a chance to get away from his obnoxious (Note: Downright infuriating) class mates and to see some other part of the world, Joseph signed up for a full 6-year scholarship in the said School and miraculously was the only one who passed the arduous tests.
Academically speaking, he excels in Math and Science. Anything with a formula and a procedure to be learned, he can do best. History, Biology and Japanese would serve as his weakest subjects (But compared to most students, he gets average to above average grades in those two subjects.) on account of History and Biology being boring to him and being a gaijin although he knows how to speak Japanese, just not as well as his Japanese classmates. As for PE, he gets above average grades considering his athleticism despite not going out a lot.
Despite being dedicated to his studies, Joseph does have a few hobbies. One of which is his gaming addiction. He can control his addiction, however, just enough to get decently high grades. (Think around B- to an A-) As a way to keep himself fit, he also took up Karate in the school's Karate club back when he was a Freshman. Lastly, he likes to read from time to time.
Physical Attributes:
Eyes - Brown
Height - 160 cm
Weight - 60 kg
Hair - Clean cut, 2 by 3.
Nose - Somewhat flat/ wide.
Physique - Short, undefined but firm body.
Attire (At school) - The standard Sekigahara male uniform; formal-looking but comfortable and durable leather shoes with laces.
Other:
* Almost always has a somber or neutral expression.
* A pessimist but keeps it hidden until his frustration mounts.
* Not easily riled, but can be very violent when provoked.
Here's Joseph's Schedule.
I'll try and do my best. So I'll join > u <

Gender: Male
Age: 15
Grade: First year (Freshman)
Background:
His father was a famous musician, while his mother was an English teacher. Andros first heard about the school while browsing through various schools to try and apply for after he graduated from elementary school. He is sometimes quiet, but is willing to lend a hand to others, even if they tend to get on his nerves. Despite that, Andros can sometimes be a little picky but he knows when to choose his battles. The only thing that irks him a lot is being bombarded with questions about his father.
After he joined his first year, Andros felt that familiar feeling of being the underclassman and had a few friends. Some girls were interested in him as well, but he felt he could sense that it was more than just being interested in him that he couldn't fathom.
His favorite subjects are English and Science. He has joined a music club in elementary and likes the outdoors. His parents once tried to add another child to their family, but unfortunately it ended as a miscarrage. Since that time, they've been a bit hesitant to try again.
He still hasn't decided what he would want to do in college and hopes that through his time in high school that it will eventually become clear. Since he has long hair, he is sometimes mistaken as a girl and ever since he was 13...never decided to shorten it.
He currently lives with his grandparents and he sometimes is able to see his mother, but seldom at times sees his father since he has tours at unexpected times.

Maybe. Seeing as I myself am still rather new here, I would give deference to a few more veteran members who I could forsee wanting those characters very badly; namely, Nanoha-san and Hayate Yagami. I do this not only gecause of their seniority on this site, but also because Nanoha has ran similar games before, and as such has a bit of my trust to play such an important character.
