This is for anyone wanting to test out their characters in the setting before applying, and to see if things "click". Multiples will be allowed for this post, and you can generally assume any threads are a self-contained continuity unless you feel like getting creative.

Just post a thread with your CHARACTER NAME and CANON NAME in the title with a prompt and others will reply. Prompts and threads can be action spam or prose or whatever. These threads can be used on the sample section of your application, as well. Go out and have fun! Feel free to consult the institute tour and dorm guide for setting info.

Is that so? Well, I must know who I have the honor of speaking to; someone with enough interest in fencing to start a team is certainly worth knowing.

[Ky switches to video feed.]

Bonjour. My apologies for not doing this sooner. I usually prefer using the voice setting.
swash_und_buckle: (Nowhere I'd rather be)

Ah! [His face brightens up.] Herr Kiske, a delight to see you again!

I was not aware you had a passion for fencing. What style do you prefer?

I come from a long line of fencers, M'sieur Wagner. I got my start shortly after my first year of school.

While I'm familiar with the main categories and their rules, I prefer sabre over all of them.

Indeed? Well, I would be honored to test my steel against you sometime.

I am more a fan of rapier, but I have taught myself to be adaptable, to say the least.

The feeling is mutual, though my sword isn't exactly competition-friendly.

Yes, the rapier is a noble weapon. Mine was patterned after a classic French rapier. [He shows Kurt his custom sword.]

Oh, wunderbar! [He's obviously impressed at the sword.] If you would rather not use that sword, I am certain I can provide a suitable blade for you, young Ky.

It would be appreciated as I don't use this one for sparring.

[He smiles easily enough, wanting to keep his blade for field battles.]
