Author's Note:

I'm not exaggerating when I say that selecting the party was incredibly difficult! I didn't want to make it especially large, but everyone's characters were so cool. I had already planned on accepting every application (gotta have a lot of teachers for a university), so I was mainly looking at how to form a team that would compliment well. Hopefully I did so! That being said, the first part will primarily take place at Laeliths, so all the characters will be featured for at least the beginning.

When it comes to opinions and love interests, everyone can do them, including the side cast! For the side cast, please indicate if your character would keep a correspondence with anyone in the party (that way they can still be included).

Unfortunately, I can't exactly run a campaign via this story, but I'd love for some form of interaction with y'all still! So, if there's anything you think your character would do or say, or if you have an idea for a letter for them to send, or anything really, feel free to PM me! I'll try to include anything you send me to the best of my abilities :)) There's also a pretty good chance I'll PM you with a question about your character during the writing process.

Also, my laptop was having trouble displaying comments for some reason, so I used my phone to read the applications while typing everything from my laptop. If anything is misspelled or just wrong regarding your character, please let me know and I'll fix it ASAP!
