Iwatodai High School, a small high school located in the small town of Iwatodai, Japan. It's stood there for generations, and instead of being rebuilt, over the course of the last 50 years, additions have been added. Because of these additions, the structure of the school often confuses new students. Hallways often lead in dead ends, stair ways lead to landings with classrooms, and sometimes you see doors that boarded up and were cemented shut.

Because of how old the school is, many rumors talk about the various ghosts that haunt the school and it's campus. Things like the mirror in the old storage room that a spirit inhabits, that will kill you if look away. Or the facet in the girl's bathroom that turns on by itself, only to have blood flow out of pipes/

To investigate these claims, the Iwatodai Paranormal Investigation Club (I.P.I.C) was formed to investigate the claims and rumors. While it's simply an "Unofficial Club" It's actually a small organization of students who can see ghosts, and some who can even exorcise said ghosts.

What awaits you in the halls of Iwatodai Academy? What lurks in the next corner? It's time for you to find out...

Name: Yumi Tamaki
Gender: Female
Age: 16
Sexuality: Bisexual

Appearance: Yumi stands at 5,6 and weighs about 120 lbs. She has a slender build, with an hourglass figure, and pale white skin. Yumi has long waist length pin straight black hair with evenly cut bangs that come down slightly past her eye brow. Yumi has pale brown hair that almost colored like honey, and she's often admired for her serene grace and beauty. She often wears the Iwatodai Uniform with a skirt that comes down just above her knee, with black tights. When performing exorcisms, she often dons a lavender colored yukata or kimono, and carries an ornate white fan a design that resembles a maple tree branch

Personality: Yumi is often admired by the other students and teachers for her beauty and intelligence. She's very kind hearted, and despite the disbelief of many of her peers. Yumi has a very playful side, and likes having fun with her friends. Yumi is actually rather motherly, and tends to be rather protective of her fellow club members. Yumi also is rather kind hearted, and many ghosts find her enjoyable to be around. But if their is one thing you don't wanna do, is piss her off. If you mess with one of her friends, or lie to her for any reason, she will show no mercy, and will be very reluctant to forgive. Yumi also has a slight guilt complex, and if something goes wrong during an investigation, she can't help but feel responsible.

Yumi tends to have some family troubles, so she doesn't really like talking about them, and when the topic of her parents comes up, she tends to clam up. Yumi is also a little out of touch with modern trends, such as current music groups, celebrities, TV shows, etc. Yumi also enjoys telling ghost stories, and is really good telling them.

History: Will be revealed in the RP

Other: N/A

Name: Travis Rubio Sommer

Gender: Male

Age: 17

Sexuality: Heterosexual

Appearance: Usually seen in Iwatodai Academy uniform that consists of a black blazer with a pair of black trousers and a red tie. During PE class or friendly sparring games with other schools, he is always wearing Iwatodai basketball jersey with the number 32 and "IWATODAI" written in red and a pair of high top, yellow basketball shoes with "Yesterday you said tomorrow" written with permanent marker on the sides of his basketball shoes, which is actually a phrase his deceased brother often says when Travis is slacking off. A black wristband, eyeglasses and a red scarf paired with his school bag completes his usual everyday look.

Travis stood at exactly 170cm (a fact that he despises to no end), and has a tan skin from playing outdoor most of the time. Although he didn't go to the gym, he is slightly muscular, thanks to his deceased brother who often gives ridiculous drills and exercise. Travis has jet black hair, with the sides of his head shaved and a round face. His eyes are sea green and sharp.

Personality: The very definition of summer, Travis is very upbeat and cheerful, albeit having a somewhat sensitive side he rarely shows to the world. He is the kind of guy to work hard, and play harder. Travis knows how to relax, and his common relaxing hobbies include kicking back with friends, bond fires, and of course, watching a basketball match on tv with friends.

He is typically loud when it comes to talking about girls, but is true and faithful when it comes to the one he loves. Travis listens mainly to country music, but he is open to any genre.

Travis is very easygoing, friendly and remains levelheaded to the point of being facetious about how the others are always "too serious." Travis has a fear of water dating back to a childhood incident of playing hide-and-go-seek and falling to lake.

History: Travis is a transfer student from Spain, and is currently in his senior year in Iwatodai Academy. He plays as the Point Guard in his school basketball team, even though he is not too bright on some subjects like math and physics.

Travis had a relatively happy childhood. He loved playing outdoor with his friends, and grew up to someone who really loves nature and bugs. Having been picked on throughout his childhood by his basketball-playing brother motivated Travis to become a basketball player himself. He got tired of always standing in his brother's shadow and joined the school basketball team to prove his worth. Shortly after, his brother Tyler died in to a car crash accident, and no matter how hard he tries to hide it, Tyler's death places a heavy burden in Travis' heart.

One day, his teammate hid his basketball shoes in the old storage room where no one dares to come to because of all the ghost rumors around the campus. Being a very laid back guy, Travis ventured inside the room without concern to find his shoes. He found it sitting on top of boxes stacked together and he climbed it to reach his shoes. Once he got his hands on his shoes, his feet slipped and he fell down, slamming his head on the floor hard. While sitting on the floor in pain, he heard whispers and saw a figure resembling his dead brother. Astonished, he scurried out of the room and the next day, he keeps on hearing whispers and started seeing some ghost sightings around campus. At first, he thought he was starting to lose his sanity, but after he told his experience and his new ability to see ghosts to his friends, he was recruited by the IPIC who found out about him.

Other: Travis's theme song:
 
@Selenium; Approved. Nice sign up, I love the detail and complexity behind it. Almost everything has a reason for being there.
 
Thank you very much. It's my pleasure to be a part of this RP :)
 
May I reserve? I just need a little time to figure out my SU.
 
@Mitsune Haku; No, and based on that reference, 90% of these investigations will deal with actual ghosts. Just FYI.
 
May I be a teacher?

Yes or not, I'll still reserve. I'm on vacation now but I will try to make the bio on monday.
 
Sorry, no teachers
 
Name: Imera Helianen
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Bisexual

Appearance: Imera is a young lady who stands at 5'9" and has a slim figure. Her fiery scarlet hair reaches her midsection on the back and only her shoulders in the front. She often wears mascara and always has a layer of blush on, but seldomly wears lipstick of any kind. In addition to the default school uniforms, she wears black leggings and red snowboots regardless of the weather. She also has her guitar with her at all times, even when sleeping.

Personality: Like her appearance, Imera is one flamboyant girl and will exaggerate everything that happens to her or someone else. She can and will be easily distracted by the most minute topic or entity and can be a chatterbox at times, but will be completely silent and oblivious to the outside world when she's creating new music to play on her electric guitar.
 
Name: Cerise Marine
Gender: Female
Age: 14
Sexuality: Bisexual

Appearance: cerise.jpg

Personality: Cerise is a well-humored teen, who unexpectedly was the class clown, despite her rather beautiful appearance. She is a prankster who desires nothing more but to extract a smile unto people's faces. She is rather logical, scholarly speaking. Her personality has no limits, and while she is a bit pessimistic, she enjoys nothing more than living a happy life. Cerise is mentally and physically flexible, with an artistic and visual way of seeing things. She loves painting, but often likes abstract kinds of art rather than say a self-portrait. Many call her weird, but then again, how did a french girl end up in Japan?

History: Nothing is really known about her, except that she is a transfer student from France.

Other: She gets rather frustrated if others don't understand her occasional french phrasing. Other than that, she has a very thick french accent, having only moved to Japan months before.
 
Will fix later the spelling errors, etc.

Name: Kaito Tanaka
Gender: Male
Age: 16
Sexuality: Heterosexual


Appearance: Kaito stands relatively tall and relatively muscular, but not overwhelmingly so in either regard. A kind soul, the first thing most notice is his warm, almost loving smile. The second thing tends to be his eyes- luminous, almost soul-piercing windows that change color depending on the lighting. His short hair is a dark, deep brown, but rarely observed in favor of a visible black. He wears a traditional Iwatodai uniform, but opts for a jet black tie whenever possible, creating a monochrome outfit. Underneath he wears a blue tank top and matcing basketball shorts just in case things get physically strenuous. In many situations, he carries his bass, Luna, with him in a case on his back.


Personality: Kaito is a calm, reserved person. A frequent meditator and an enjoyer of the serene sound of the tide, he always attempts to be as kind as possible to others. Inside, he houses a strong desire for affection and romance, as well as somewhat debilitating self esteem issues. These occasionally cause him to develop dark desires and perform questionable actions. He remedies many of his problems through music, whether it be vocal, resulting from playing basslines, or a combination of both. He believes all bad situations can be resolved, no matter how intense they may be. As such, he is loyal to causes he believes in and people who are accepting of who he is.


History: Possessing an independent sense from a young age, he ran away from his abusive, uncaring family at the age of seven. He knew that, as a young child, he could attract a lot of sympathy and spare change by singing whie homeless on the street. He managed to last several weeks underneath a freeway overpass before a generous family decided to take him in and raise him as if he was their own.

It was here that Kaito finally found people that actually showed him a remote sense of care, and he gave back by giving them the money he earned off videos online of him performing. After amassing enough, he bought himself a bass, his perefered instrument. Basslines may go unnoticed, but the support it provides the rest of the song is irreplaceable. Similar to his own sense of wanting to assist others.

Dismay can never be avoided, though. When his adopted mother passed away from a heart attack, Kaito flew into a rage, continuously getting into fights at school. He began to dread going into public, out of fear that bad things may happen to others at any moment. After being expelled from his old high school, his adopted father transferred him to Iwatodai, in hopes that it would provide a fresh start. Finding passion in his music, his rage eventually settled as he prepared for a new year, a new school, and new experiences.


Other: Can play guitar and drums as well, but does not personally own either. Clairvoyant through his dreams. Often dreams about deceased souls, from his mother or otherwise. Recently, he has began to see actual ghosts while awake on rare occasion, but does not know what it means to him.

Name: Hisao Muramasa
Gender: Male
Age: 16
Sexuality: Bisexual

Appearance: Hisao has been doing work as a model since he was 14, and it's not hard to see why. He's boyishly handsome. More "cute" than "manly", but still attractive. Just not quite conventionally. He has medium-length black hair, and a slender build. His dark green eyes are fairly large, and he has somewhat pale skin. He tends to wear the school uniform with little extra flair. The only thing he adds is a lucky skull necklace. His grandma bought it for him on a whim when he was 8, and he decided it was good luck.

ed29d1533978f4b5f642475ff7859f79085e5c2a.png

Personality: Despite having a part-time job in the public eye, Hisao is a bit timid. Not really 'shy', per se. He'll go up and talk to people. But he's a bit of a pushover. He has a hard time saying no to people. He's also perhaps a bit more worried about what people think of him. He is extremely kind, but he's also a bit of a doormat. He's also easily frightened by a lot of things. He prefers to avoid problems as opposed to face them head on. As far as hobbies go, he likes board games a lot, as well as puzzles and riddles. In spite of (or because of) the fact that they terrify him, he watches a lot of horror movies. He's a bit of a movie buff in general, but horror movies are his favorite. He also sings, and is a member of choir. And of course he works part time as a model.

History: I'll reveal it later.

Other: Nope.
