Hello!

[amberhearted]

Hi, Save the Earthers! I'm Mini and I'll be playing a not-yet-vampire named Alexander Varista. He simply goes by Alex. In his original life, he was a human who rose from the dead as a vampire after nearly two decades of rolling in his grave, worrying about his wife and child. In Locke City, he is a 4-H volunteer at a/the(?) public school by day and a paramedic by night.

I'm unaware if the school system the 18-years-old and younger characters are in is a K through 12 or split into elementary/intermediate/high school. If nothing has been established one way or the other, I'd like it if the system was a K through 12 so that it's easier for the students to have CR and so that Alex can possibly have CR with more students. Yes, I am greedy!!

But I'm totes fine if the schools are split. Likely, Alex would be with the elementary middle school, then. In 4-H, he helps with animal husbandry projects, like raising goats or building chicken coops. He was raised on a farm, so he's familiar with the topic. He's been volunteering for four years.

As for being a paramedic, Alex has been on Locke City University Hospital's EMS team for five years. He loves what he does, but sometimes he gets frustrated by the restrictions of paramedicine. I'm thinking the hospital itself is a teaching hospital so any future medical student characters can do their rotations there if they want. Alex running into LCU students there is probably slim, but definitely possible. He works night shift, 7p-7a, not counting overtime which is common. It's possible he has responded to your character's 911 call if you like!

His app is here, his info post is here and my HMD is here. I can be reached through PM or plurk (applechai).

I'm excited to be in the game and play with you all!

Hiya! I'm Gail, and I play the local high school biology/health teacher :) He's a kinda dorky but very determined and devoted fellow, and will eventually become a werewolf again...

I've been playing it how most public schools in the US go and that it's elementary school for K-5, middle school for 6-8, and high school for 9-12-- but if the mods wanna change that, they can. I've only ever seen that in private schools here, though, so I dunno if it'll work!

[amberhearted]

Same here, I've seen public split up and private all together. Like I said, I'm fine with either!

Hell yes werewolves 8) His mentor in monstership 101 was a werewolf so this ought to be fun!

There are so many vampires in this game right now :: snickers :: When more memories come back, Lyall will definitely be exasperated by them all X3

But either way the school thing goes, I think these two might know each other? Lyall here kinda loves sheep, he used to do do genetic research on them. I can imagine he'd at least visit the 4-H club, if just for good memories.

[amberhearted]

I know! I felt a little bad adding to the numbers, but not bad enough, obviously.

Oh yeah, that's a good idea! Maybe he could even do super casual guest "lectures" if you like. Alex is very chatty. It sounds like they'd get along swell.

[professorwolf]

Nah, dun worry about it XD I look forward to his exasperation! Though someday there will be another werewolf, if I'm lucky :: chinhands ::

I like, if you like it :D Plus I love pre-game CR, and Lyall needs a few adult friends :B He's already collected a lot of current and former students.

[amberhearted]

Sounds good to me!!

[professorwolf]

Excellent ^^ Once they find out who each other are, they can catch up :B Lyall has mentioned his name several times on the network, including on his own posts, so that side at least shouldn't be hard.

[amberhearted]

I just realized they're both from older time periods! That might be fun, too.
