Jemals School

[Theroc]

Coravin blinked, rather bewildered at how quickly the woman became angry with him, and turned away, so as to cut through some of the tension he so disliked. He sighed lightly and resigned himself to the ignorance of his compatriots.

"Just because I feel someone is misled does not mean I cannot be civil. I apologize if I'm being offensive, but I really don't understand this overwhelming concept of prejudice. It's a very dismaying notion and promotes high amounts of violence and tension... which invariably get in the way of study and peaceful progress. I'll stop now, and will refrain from speaking in the future unless my opinion is asked for, as it seems my views will offend the remainder here."

Coravin turned towards Jamien and extended his hand as asked, awaiting reciprocation before shaking it.

"There, are we settled?"

 

[Rhun]

Amaya nods, and then turns to regard Jamien expectantly.

Zero just shakes his head at the drama, focuses instead on his food. Nothing to be gained by fighting with people. "This is why I like my crafting, can't wait until I can make some companions of my own. I thought I left the politics behind in Sharn" the artificer thinks to himself as he munches on the food, pausing for a moment to savour the flavour.

 

[Myth and Legend]

Jamien blinked at Amaya - he didn't know weather he wanted to kiss those pretty lips of hers or hide from the storm in her eyes. He then turned towards the Wizard: "By all means. I enjoy debating, and you have not offended me. My views are based on my entire life being spent in Faerun and aronud my father and other warrior types. Perhaps with time, i will become wiser and learn to broaden my understanding of the multiverse."

The Knight firmly grasped Coravin's hand and turned towards Amaya: "It is not the first time for me to see a woman that has more sense than three men. In fact, my dearest mother taught me much of my manners. If you think i am lacking now, you should be glad i wasn't entirely tutored by my hot blooded father." the lad grinned and revealed his white teeth.

"GRRRRRRRRRRRR, YIPYIPYIP" Aussir shoots out from the table and hides behind Jamien. He pokes his head arounh Jamien's leg."Okay Aussir can take Nettle... Aussir just not want to right now. What talk about?" He looks between those conversing and looks puzzled."Meep?"

 

[Arkhandus]

Keizaan thinks for a minute or two, then replies "I should probably check on the others in my......class? Study group? Whatever. And see if there's anything else I need to do first. I will return later and perhaps take you up on that offer." He waves goodbye and heads off to try finding his way to......the cafeteria? Yeah, that's where Arin was leaidng the others, he thinks.

 

[Rhun]

Amaya smiles at Jamien, and then at Coravin. "I'm just glad to find that you can both listen to reason." She then turns to look at Arin. "I think there was some talk of you showing us the Arena?"

 

[renau1g]

Zero's eyes lift up at the mention of the Arena. "Yes, it would be most desirable to see where we are going to test ourselves" he says

 

[Jemal]

-Hallways/mall-
Keizaan takes his leave of the dwarf and heads back into the hallways. Eventually he finds himself entering the mall to overhear a familiar young man(Terrance) speaking with a red-skinned man surrounded by what appear to be stylish sticks - perhaps wands of some sort.

The red-skinned merchant's smile slips for just a moment when Terrance mentions his lack of funding, but returns shortly "Ah, I thought you were fresh off the boat, but not THAT fresh. Nobody explained the currency 'round here yet, eh? We use a credit system, info's magically and automatically stored right there in that ring you was issued when you were accepted." He points the school signet ring Terrance wears. "Course being new your accounts probly empty, which is a bit of a problem, but nothing we can't handle, eh friend?"
He smiles and pushes a few sticks aside, leaning his arms on the table "Tell ya what, you look a smart fella so I'll let ya in on a secret - People round here aint into IOU's, but if you're short on creds, there're ways to make do. You can barter, take up a job like I myself have done plying your trade, or simply trade a favour or other special skill you may have. SO kid, what's special about you? Any marketable or useful skills or knowledge that might come in handy? I might just be persuaded to part with some of my own creds to help a new guy out, provided I get at least a little somethin in return."

-Cafeteria-

"If everyone is finished eating, then of course I will show you to the Arena." Arin smiles and moves towards the hall, looking to Jamien "Most are too caught up in the change in physical appearance to notice the way we speak... you are more observant than she gave you credit for. The short answer is that 'Arin' is not one person, but two. We are a composite being: two minds in one body." She waits for everyone to join before continuing to explain as you make your way through the halls.

"Over a millenia ago, there was a great cataclysm on our world. Many races were destroyed, others changed. In particular, the humans lost their ability to touch the weaves of magic, and my people lost our corporeal form. We spent centuries unable to touch, feel, or affect anything. The humans, too, were having troubles - Bereft of the ability to wield magic, they were unable to defend themselves properly, their mighty nations falling one by one. They held on through sheer force of will and strength of arms for a time, but both of our species were in danger of fading away."

"Eventually our two races worked out a deal. Our magical power for the ability to.. well, LIVE. And so a symbiosis was formed between our people, one which has helped us at first to survive and then to prosper, raising our dual race to the top of the food chain, as it were."

 

[Rhun]

OOC: So Arin is kinda like a Tok'ra, without the symbiote?
