BIG Cadet Academy

BIG Cadet Academy for the Valiant 

In its dying moments, SOCS merged with BIG, despite the fact that they'd been enemies for a time. BIG's cadet academy had already been established, but suddenly BIG had a bunch of experiments left over from SOCS. BIG wasn't so evil to keep up something so unethical as experimentation on live subjects… but these were the leftovers. The war is getting long, hard. They're starting to justify the use of experiments in hopes of creating stronger, genetically enhanced soldiers. 

Meanwhile, BIG Cadet Academy for the Valiant is accepting more and more students at an alarming rate. Feeding children as young as eleven propaganda, teaching them to fight, and then placing them on the battlefield or into labs as soon as they come of age, it seems as though BIG is getting more desperate (and ruthless) than ever before…

***

Here is the recreated (and hopefully better) version of the original boarding school roleplay. The very basic story is summarized above, but I'll put it in clearer terms. The story is that now that SOCS, a very evil group of scientists who used to experiment on live beings, has been destroyed, BIG has been left with their experiments. At first, they were only using the leftovers, but they have now grown so desperate for power in the war that they are creating more experiments in an effort to make stronger soldiers. BIG also has a boarding school for students (BIG Cadet Academy for the Valiant or BCAftV) who will either fight or do science for them when they graduate. Mostly students learn propaganda about BIG, science, and combat skills, although all of the core classes are more or less there. At the academy, there is a lab. Some experiments are living in the lab for the students to use as test subjects in their lessons. But when a group of students becomes aware of these experiments plot for escape, they have to decide if they want to help or not. This roleplay will be about the days leading up to a small rebellion from students and experiments at BIG. If you have a half-baked, undeveloped idea for a character, don't worry because this is a perfect place for character development!

Your character can be a student or an experiment. While there is no limited number of characters, we ask that there only be up to eight experiments right now for smoothness and believability. Please consider if you will have time to commit to this roleplay before you join, especially if you're making an experiment character. Two of my characters are experiments, which leaves six experiment slots left as of right now. You don't need to have been in the old roleplay to join this one! If you were in the original roleplay, you can keep your character or make a new one. I'm also going to give you first dibs on experiment slots if you already had an experiment character for the next few days; that only seems fair.

Yay it's up! Hope it's okay they're not completely human (homo lupus, able to transform into wolf, both likely never do it around here so no one really finds out). If it's a problem I can try to adjust it. both are students

Name: Leskie Aderaine

Pronouns: she/her
Age: 13 and a half
Appearance: silvery blonde hair around shoulder length, pale blue eyes, fair skin 
Personality: thoughtful, kind, smart, quiet, can come off as cold sometimes

Skills and abilities: good at most academic things, good at keeping secrets, relatively decent at fighting (though not the best), can transform into a wolf (though rarely-close to never does)

Likes/Dislikes: likes reading and archery, dislikes anyone asking questions about her past 
Shipping: open to anyone, though a bit slower to trust
Other: Has a brother named Winter Aderaine, joined BIG at 11 officially though beforehand she had been doing prep/training for BIG ever since she was really really young

Name: Alyria "Aly" Virsoe 

Pronouns: she/her

Age: 14 and a half

Appearance: light red hair, golden-yellow eyes, rather tan, a few freckles 

Personality: thoughtful, caring, impulsive

Skills and abilities: archery, general combat skills, mentoring, and accuracy (in any context)

Likes/Dislikes: likes archery, making friends, adventure, dislikes being left out, not being accurate, bad people in general

Shipping: open to anyone
Other: brief backstory: Aly was enrolled into BCA when she was relatively young, at the youngest possible age, and so doesn't feel much closeness with her parents as she should, with friends taking that place more. At BCA, she discovered her passion for archery, and since then, she has been practicing whenever possible. She's neutral on Catastrophe and the Resistance. She just tries her best to focus on her academics and stuff.

Just wondering, what's your opinion on shipping Kathleen with Alyria?

submitted by Moon Wolf@Celine, age lunars, A Celestial Sky
(March 19, 2024 - 11:51 pm)

Sure! And that'd also make for an interesting then when the students are deciding whether to help the experiments or not bc Lee is full Catastrophe and BCAftV but Aly is neutral, right?

submitted by Celine@Moon Wolf, age Wootwoot, We are the valiant!
(March 20, 2024 - 9:51 am)

Yep! Thats true. So Aly might end up wanting to join Catastrophe.

submitted by Moon Wolf , age lunars, A Celestial Kyngdom
(March 20, 2024 - 4:22 pm)

Or she might help Lee see the other side too, idk :) excited to see how it all plays out though!

Feiya says UNREF... I wonder what that means?

(March 20, 2024 - 5:09 pm)

Oh and forgot to say: as the first RP was going on, I realized that Lee is, like, FULL Catastrophe supporter, I think something to do with her parents and stuff...? Like idk, were they killed by the Resistance or who(m)ever, or? Me not knowing my charries' backstories XD But yeah she's all for Catastrophe and BCAftV, so I have a feeling she's gonna be pretty conflicted later on... :D

also she has a big appreciation for nature and simple beauty in the world <3

Name and experiment number: Aenys (AY-NS) - experiment number

Pronouns: Primarily uses xe/she/he/they.

Age: A teenager, but...in cat years?

Appearance: A handsome and quite large Birman cat with three fluffy tails and a robotic front arm, spine, and eye (this eye is particularly shiny and white--it has no pupil).

Species (can be completely, partially, or not at all human): Catborg.

Skills and abilities: She is particularly flexible, due to xer bionic spine. Their eye can see through walls and has a lie detector--it also has a laser pointer for giggles. (What can I say? He's a cat.) Xer eye is a very fritz-prone GPS.

Likes/dislikes: Despises wet environments because xer robotic parts become prone to fritzing or stiffening when xe forgets to apply their water-repelling spray. Adores the warmth. Enjoys writing with a pen that xe is able to take out of his robotic arm (since she doesn't have opposable thumbs, their robotic arm has an attachment that allows him to write).

Shipping: Sure. Xe has no preference.

Other: N/a.
