Animus Academy: training for monster hunters.

Animus Academy is the best and only school for monster hunters, starting from the youngest age of 16 to 35. For up to eight years, students are tutored to be excellent hunters. Great hunters such as David Malica, Kyle Hizaki, Lucas Revolvet, and Lucahn Nogami all were trained by Animus. A wide array of specialties are taught, such as Dragon Slaying, Archery, Martial Arts and more.

Students can take anywhere between two to eight years of classes, each one progressively getting harder and epicer.

*Dorms are existent, having two students per dormitory. Dorms are assigned randomly and no changes to dorm partners will not be changed.




In the beginning, Animus Academy was started a cult named Scarlet. Animus's purpose was to attract possible candidates for a little project of theirs. Certain humans are slightly different than others, having a special type of blood than most. It is named "Z Negative". Without any kinds of special tools, it is impossible to detect that one has this type of blood. However, Scarlet had created an object used to detect this. They secretly use it in the physical exams done upon First Year's first day**. It is existent in about 1 in 10,000 people.

It is said that when thirteen peoples' blood is sacrificed on an Alchemic Circle, a great monster's seal is broken and obeys the one who sacrificed the humans. The beast is said to be sealed away after it had killed thousands and destroyed much. It is said to be thirty feet tall and fifteen metric tonnes.

Currently, five students with Z- are enrolled in Animus.

Notes:

* = Being an all-male Academy, females are known to facade as a male to get into the Academy. Those who fail to keep it up the entire time are punished severely and are typically "never heard from again".

** = Physical exams consist of just medical things.

- The time is modern. Guns are sometimes used by students.

- Often Years take missions to assault an infestation of monsters. This happens typically weekly for each Year. Every student will be told a week in advance when they are to attend a Rush.

If your character/s skip class or do not attend class for more than two days in a row, you will be expelled from Animus Academy for a year. Being sick is acceptable, but faking sick for two days in a row will result in expulsion as well. Skipping class more than seven times in one year will also result in expulsion, as well as frequent skipping will result in it too. You have been warned.

-----M-y----------C-h-a-r-a-c-t-e-r---------

Full Name: Mino Revolvet

Age: 16.

Race/Species: Human.

Year: Second Year.

Sex: Female.

Gender: Male.

Weapon of Choice: "Armagedon Spear" - A spear handed to Mino from her father. It was forged in a mountain via lava, and it's made of pure steel. However, the blade is slightly dulled and it is not very sharp. It was originally blessed with magic, but it wore off. http ://fc07.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2010/205/8/f/Asmira__s_Spear_by_Aikurisu.jpg

Specialty: None yet.

Backstory: Her father, Lucas Revolvet, was a popular monster hunter. He specialized in Giant Slaying, and he was mostly popular among the women due to his muscles. It wasn't very hard for him to get a wife and have a child. Shortly after Mino was born, Lucas left his wife for someone else. Mino's mother decided to ditch duties as a parent as well, as she was only in it for Lucas. She dropped Mino off at an orphanage where she grew up at until she was sixteen. At the time, she decided to read up upon her father who had mysteriously went missing two months ago. He was an arrogant, self-loving hunter who fought beasts without a shirt on. The thought repulsed her in a way, just the sheer amount of imperiousness that was sensible.

Disregarding it, she read more about Animus Academy. She loved her childhood stories about fairy tale monsters, and the monsters themselves interesting her. Curiously, she learned that it was a male-only Academy. She desperately wanted to attend to Animus, so she ran downstairs and asked about it. She was told a story about a girl who faked her sex and attended five years at it, but disappeared when one of her friends accidentally said something about her true gender. Mino decided that she too would try this, but instead she wouldn't be caught. Six months later, she appeared at the gates of Animus, with her school uniform on.

Extra Info: None I have in mind.

Not to be 100% offensive, but I don't even in a 30% way.

Okay... Before I apply, I have a few questions....
Firstly, in this set of circumstances, are 'monsters' fairly common knowledge, or are they regarded by most of society as myth?
Second, how would you go about attempting to get in to the academy? You didn't really specify... Do you just go over to the school, fill out some liability forms, then profit?
Third, would you mind my character being a pyromaniac. (Eg. He carries around large amounts of fireworks, flammable materials, and matches?)
Sorry if I seem like an idiot asking all of these questions, I just want to make sure I don't waste my time making an app that will be denied right off the bat.

For the first, they're a common thing in the wild, hence why there's an entire academy dedicated to slaying them.

Second, basically like any other School. You send in your papers, and if you're accepted, you're in. I guess I didn't really make it clear.

And I don't mind if he's a pyro. Just don't start set the world on fire...

Thank you. And don't worry, I have some common sense. He'll only set small things on fire. Like a urinal or two, maybe.

Besides, you never said you wanted a link.

Full Name: Joshua (Prefers to be called Josh) Miller

Age: 17

Race/Species: Human

Year: 1st year

Sex: Male.

Gender: ...why the same question twice? He's still a male. But, maybe he'll somehow change gender by the end of the application.

Weapon of Choice: Anything he can grab from the large variety of incendiary objects in the backpack he constantly carries around with him, which includes many fireworks, a few boxes of matches, and a couple of lighters.

Specialty: Burning things.

Backstory:
Spoiler
Josh was born in one of the larger cities (I'm assuming this would take place in an alternate reality of our Earth, so not the same countries, cities, towns, correct?). His behavior was often described as 'outrageous' and 'unruly', but his parents and close family thought he would grow out of it quickly enough. Fortunately, they were, for the most part, correct. Josh was a good child, did his schoolwork without complaint, always helped around the house, and was overall just a good kid. However, things began to change when he got to fourth grade. Kids started to make fun of him for being such a goody-two-shoes, which hit him hard, as he was a rather sensitive kid. Every day, he got bullied more and more, until he just stopped going to school.

After a bit of convincing, his parents managed to get him back to school, after the bullies had been straightened out. However, Josh wasn't the same. He became more rebellious, he acted out every now and then. But, it was mostly small stuff. As the years crawled by, Josh began getting into fights, vandalizing things, other bad behavior. Naturally, his parents were rather concerned, and were wondering what had happened to their darling little angel of a son. For quite awhile, they talked to him, sent him to a couple of camps, and did their best to get back the Jodh they used to know.

It took a few months, but Josh managed to get back on track. He got his grades back up, stopped causing trouble, and went back to the way he had been before. No one really knows what had happened with his behavior, but many guessed it was just some sort of mood swing. But, now that he had turned his life back around, Josh was enjoying normal living. Such a shame his world crumbled to pieces so quickly. Josh's mother had recently gotten a new job at the bank, and it was rather stressful, and filled up most of her time. It was rather difficult for her to focus on much, and often led to broken dishes,burning potted plants, and other small mishaps . One day, however, Josh wasn't lucky enough for just a small accident.

Josh can still remember the day vividly. It was a hot, dry Thursday, his mother was attempting to file some tax reports while getting some dinner ready. Josh's mom was more than a little distracted, and Josh was zoned in to his homework. On the counter, there was a scrap of paper that read:
To-Do-
Clean Garage.
Buy groceries.
Replace batteries in fire alarm.
Buy batteries.
All it took was some low hanging curtains a clumsy cat, an electrical outlet, and a glass of water to spark a flame. As the flame began to crawl up the curtain, some smoke curled up to the ceiling, not affecting the inactive smoke alarms. Josh and his mother both smelt a hint of smoke, but ignored it, not bothering to look up from their work. Unluckily for the both of them, the fire managed to spread to the front door first, before reaching use enough for the two to notice. They were extremely unprepared, having never thought of a fire burning their home.

Earthquake, sure. Tornado, sure. Giant, sure. But never a fire. They managed to grab most of the important things from the house before exiting through the back way, and calling the fire department. Then, from the house, a loud meow could be heard over tge crackling of the fire. Cheeto, the cat Josh had since he was five years old, was still stuck in the house. Without hesitation, Josh rushed in the house, without regard for his own health. He found Cheeto in a corner of the living room, and quickly snatched him up, and made a mad dash for the door. He didn't make it. Thanks to his immense levels of clumsiness, he managed to trip over a tiny table they had next to their burning couch. He hit his head hard on the tiled floor of the kitchen, and blacked out.

When he woke up, Josh was in a small white room. A hospital room. There were bandages covering his face, and his body was rather stiff. He managed to raise his arm a bit, but not much else. He finally got a nurses attention, and she called in a doctor as well. Josh then learned that he had been in a coma for two years, after getting knocks out in the burning house. His face had sustained massive burns, which they were unable to fix. Naturally, it took quite awhile for Josh to get back onto his feet, after being on a coma for so long. After the incident, he was never tge same mentally. He often acted strange, especially around fire. Among his many weird behaviors, he managed to convince his mother that him going to Animus Academy was a good idea, because "I want to do something good for everyone! I can help get rid of monsters!" As he said once. And so, he applied to the Academy, got accepted, and headed over with a mask he bought on e-bay (to hide his face), and a backpack full of his newfound love, flammable objects.


Appearance: Sorry, but I couldn't find a picture that suited my needs to save my life. Josh is a man of average height and weight. He has slightly tanned Caucasian skin, rarely seen without cuts and small burns on them. He is normally seen wearing plain black tee-shirts, along with denim jeans, often seen with grease stains on them in various places. He wears this mask at all times, to conseal his horribly burned face. Hopefully that's a good enough description?

Extra Info: I hope this is an acceptable application, and if not, I hope that I can try again. Thank you for taking the time to consider it.
