Faith

I was thinking they’re just walking a path around the school and they’ll arrive at the gym whenever we want

@whalekeeper thanks. My phone was telling me a pell was a sheet of paper, which made no sense in this context.

Ellis

“No. It’s more… spontaneous than that. I know nothing about your fate.”

The path sloped downward into a small, marshy area, surrounded by waist-high reeds. As Ellis stepped around a muddy patch, he noticed something. Several…[Read more]

@rae

Happy birthday!! Congrats on living this long!

(Perhaps that is a weird thing to congratulate someone for. No matter.)

This is why I call him oblivious.

Ah. That explains it.

(Lucy’s reaction to such an episode would be interesting, as she would completely break or try to keep him together. I can see it going either way personally.)

I’m n…[Read more]

A modern pell, used for practicing with swords:

Moth

“That’s wicked,” Moth breathed. “Can you see someone’s fate just by looking at him?”

I don’t really heve a good drawing of felicity

@rae I did your chart thingy! Posting here because these characters aren’t on unvale

@anyonewholikesthesecharactersidk

@whalekeeper very helpful map thank you

@everyone what are pells?

@whalekeeper

Ellis
“It means we watch for storms.” Ellis turned to face Moth’s inquisitive eyes. “And other things.” He began to walk slowly again towards the path to the gymnasium. The vague, sarcastic answer didn’t last long. “Some in my family have the ability to see the future. It was a gift from the fae over a hundred years ago and we have…[Read more]

@loopylin

Yep, he followed Ellis

Moth

“What does the name Stormwatcher mean?” Moth spoke up, right behind Ellis.

Okay good. If y’all want to decide where the stables and paddocks are, I’ll add them. :]

Also I don’t want to be controlling how all this works. So if anyone wants to change this or thinks something works better, I really don’t mind. I’m not the person who makes the final say. It’s entirely based on what your characters need.

The world should be glad that I am not a building designer. This feels like an impractical layout

Maybe the tiltyard area should be more of a large courtyard in between the main building and the gym

So at first I was thinking something like this. But the stables still need a place. It should probably be on the side somewhere so it’s accessible from the front and the back, as people come in from travel.

Thoughts? Is this actually practical or does something else make a lot more sense? Is this scribble legible?

I’ll just draw something and you guys tell me what to change

Okay. Maybe the gymnasium is a separate building in the center of the back gardens, then. We could integrate the gardens so they sort of surround the gymnasium (hedge bushes and paths and the like), and the tiltyard is walled off so the gym isn’t spilling into the tended grounds. Plus the stables are there… somewhere…

Sorry if no one wants it to be this hyper specific, but I think it might make roleplaying easier in the long run. If the boys will be in the gymnasium a lot

This is a really huge gymnasium, but it makes perfect sense for a bunch of chaotic boys.

A few questions. Should this gymnasium take up pretty much all of the back of the academy? Should it be in the main feature back there or should we put it to the east or west side? Or is it completely separate from the main building?

the path from the main…

@whalekeeper

a map would be great

Giving this kid the break he needs

@whalekeeper Moth still following? 

Ellis 

Ellis let his feet lead as his mind wandered. He soon found himself on a gravel path outside meandering down a hill towards the gardens. It was much quieter out here. Two yellow butterflies flitted into view, dancing around each other, and he paused a moment to w…[Read more]
