"Ah, yes, Mr. Hence." Funke remembered. "I read your file. Quite a talented Earth specialist. As a member of the Storm Set, I'll admit Earth is not my strong suit. Now, I'll need to ask you a few questions. Start by telling me about yourself."

Quote

Ak, you can't put me on the spot like this!

"Well, I've been a part of the Earth Set for a little over twelve years now, and I have spent a large portion of that time mastering my skills. 3 of my abilities are Earth based, so of course that is my focus. For the past five years I have also worked as an independent tutor for others in my Set of all ages."

Tough luck buddy 

And I believe three of your skills are Earth based

Funke rolled his eyes.

"All that was in your file. I want to know more than that. Who are you? What's your family life like? What hobbies do you have? How many Entities have you banished?"

I have no idea what a normal number of entities banished would be.

It depends on what his career is like and how powerful the Entities are. He's definitely banished at least a half dozen, but you can make it more than that if you want him to seem impressive. You can also mention how dangerous or famous they were if you want.

"Well, I am a very work-oriented person. It gets the grand majority of my time and energy, especially because both of my parents have passed away recently and I don't have contact with any extended family. As for Entities, I've banished sixteen. One you may recall is the murderous one from a few years back that was causing people's campfires to grow uncontrollably."

Quote

Is that the right kind of idea?

That's great! You can have freedom with this- it's meant to be a looser RP.

Funke bobbed his head. "So sorry to hear about your parents. Mine are the same, actually. Hazards of being Banishers; I'm sure you understand. Sixteen is a good number, considering Banishing isn't your main career. Now, tell me why you would be good for this job."

"Well, I have a very high focus and dedication, and, as I'm sure you gathered, considerable experience with education. While it will take some time to accustom myself to the new systems and environment, I'm confident that I can and will do very well as a teacher."

"Your resume is very good. All the best recommendations, top marks during school, and a good standing with your Set. Considering you're the only applicant who's showed up, I think you'll get the job. Just one more question. Are you currently involved in any Entity contracts, do you posses any Entity Boons, or do you have any intent to seek these things during your employment with us?"

I'm assuming any of those things would be undesirable?

Not necessarily. Generally, it's something employers want to know, but it isn't all bad. Boons are generally accepted because they come from Good Entities, while Contracts (the binding of Evil Entities) are frowned upon. And teachers aren't allowed to use the Entities located inside the school for personal gain.

What kind of things would result from Boons or Contracts?

 

[Ranryu she/her]

Just now, The Aspiring Archivist said:

Non-Set superpowers, magic weapons, special information- stuff like that. You can basically get whatever you want from an Entity, providing it has enough power and you're strong enough to control it or convince it to help you. Contracts come with strings attached, however. A price of some sort that usually results in bodily possession or some bad thing happening.

"Understandable. In my youth, I fancied myself an Unsealed." He winked. "I'm lucky the Sets decided to give me a second chance. Just make sure to keep your Boons away from the students. Some of them have sticky fingers and no common sense."

Funke stood up and shook his hand. "You're hired!"

ATTENTION ALL STUDENTS WITH FIRE SET SKILLS. FIRE 101 WILL BE HELD IN THE TRAINING CAVE AT 1:00 EXACTLY. ALL FIRE STUDENTS ARE REQUIRED TO ATTEND- EVEN STUDENTS ENROLLED IN FIRE 102, 201, AND 202. TARDINESS WILL BE PUNISHED WITH DETENTION.

Phoenix grumbled to himself, pushing his dark hair out of his eyes. Visions flashed across his eyes of the new kids that were coming to the school. Why do we always have to do this every year, it is so pointless, I can just summon water or just put it out with my power's, So why bother?

He kicks the ground and continues walking towards The Cave. Ready for the start of the School year.

Does he already have the tree or is that too advanced?

Qoorith begins walking to the cave. He gets so nervous that he starts sweating. What if he got hurt? What if he hurt someone else? He doesn't want to go through that again. He would much rather forget his fire sets. Plants are much safer but, learning how to safely use fire sounds nice or at least make it so he doesn't accidentally do something again.

He's 13 and this is his first day.

It he's summoned his tree, it's probably really small.

The training cave was large, but not quite large enough to fit all the students comfortably. The students who could fly did so to get a little extra space, and other students had shifted into small animals for the same reason. A fashionable woman standing atop a raised stone at the front of the room yelled.

"Shut up, everyone! For those of you who don't know, I'm Miss Miranova, Set School's fire 101 teacher, but you can call me Jess. Every year, we get a new batch of hotshots who think they can do whatever they want and get away with it. Every year, those hotshots end up in the infirmary covered in third degree burns. We already have some from this year, and it's only the first day. I won't tell you not to play with fire- you already know that. I'm just here to give you a reminder of what happens when you break the rules. You!" She pointed at Qoorith. "You look like a decently behaved kid. And you!" This time she called Phoenix up. "I've been keeping my eye on you, troublemaker. Both of you, get up here."

Phoenix starts surprised, he didn't expect to be called up on the first day, especially as a troublemaker, he had never made any trouble. Well, he thinks to himself there was that time last year, oh and that other time.... He walks up to the front of The Cave, swag in his step, awaiting the other kid that was sure taking his time.

Qoorith's face goes pale. What. Did. She. Say. Qoorith nervously walks up. To be called up in front of the class, and on the first day too! Well he might as well try to seem normal. "Hi I'm Qoorith." He says as he stands next to Pheonix "You're Pheonix right? I heard some other kids saying you were trouble and now this teacher too. What did you do?"

"No time for chatting, boys." Miss Miranova interjected. She didn't seem mean... just blunt. "Now, both of you are going to summon fireballs. Not too big- quickly now."
