University NPCs

[Pegasus]

Use this thread to create "classmate" or "student" NPCs. This will allow consistency between players and will mean that you can have more skilled NPCs than the usual "faceless" ones being played consistently without needing to go through the full approval process. If you use your skills against them, however, this submission MUST be linked in your review request to ensure that our Peer Reviewers can confirm.

As long as the NPC meets the requirements / restrictions below, you may play them immediately and don't need to wait for approval. It is perfectly ok for you to post them here after you finish your thread with them! Professors and other academic staff need to go through the usual city approval process.

All NPCs of this kind have up to 8 skills, it's just the levels that change. If you wish your classmates to progress with you, use the code below. PLEASE NOTE: These are the maximum skill levels. It's fine for an NPC to have lower skill levels than this.

Clarification: Consider these "flavour" NPCs. They follow the same rules as flavour NPCs with 2 differences.
1. They can be a significant presence in university study / teaching threads. If you want to have one student who is your buddy or nemesis or the joker of the class etc be with you all the way from Letter to Licentiate, that's fine.
2. They are more skilled than usual flavour NPCs.

Outside of the University threads, the same rules as Flavour NPCs apply. You can meet them, see them in passing. Someone who isnt studying at the university or who isn't studying with this person might use them in passing. If, however, an NPC becomes a significant part of your story, then they should be submitted as a personal NPC or a city one.

Brief Description of Personality: A seemingly snobby and unkind girl, she’s just upset that her parents only let her take the course because they want her to be a vet instead of a hunter.

Stephan, Alchemy, Zi'da 721

Name of NPC: Stephan
Level: Letter
Subject Studying: Alchemy
Date started: Zi'da 721
Skills: Competent Alchemy, Competent Science, Competent Detection, Novice Research, Novice Writing, Novice Gardening, Novice Animal Husbandry, Novice Medicine
Brief Description of Personality: Stephan is a young human male with dark eyes and dark brown hair. He grew up on a farm just outside Scalvoris Town and still lives there with his parents and his little sister.

While his sister wants to become a farmer when she grows up, Stephan has always wanted to become a scientist. Despite the fact that his parents are simple people, they’ve always been supportive of him.

Stephan is an intelligent young man, but his curiosity often gets the better of him – which causes him to ask a lot of questions in class. A lot of them are good, but some of them are at least slightly off-topic. Stephan usually sits at the back of the classroom, but not because he’s shy or lazy. He’s neither. He just thinks that the last row is especially cozy!

Prudence, Arcana Studies, Saun, 720

Name of NPC: Prudence
Level: Certificate
Subject Studying: Arcana
Date started: Saun 720
Skills: Competent Teaching, Competent Research, Competent Writing, Competent Etiquette, Competent Discipline, Novice Detection, Novice Linguistics, Novice Rhetoric
Brief Description of Personality: Prudence is a very proper young woman that usually thinks that she knows better and doesn't hesitate to criticze her teachers - if they are just Diploma, Charter or Licentiate students rather than actual professors. When it comes to the latter, she is very well-behaved and tries to get on their good side - because she wants to get good grades. Prudence hardly ever criticizes the teachers for no reason though. Most of the time she kind of has a point - she actually knows something about teaching. She does it in a way that is not very pleasant though. On the bright side, Prudence is a very intelligent and hard-working young woman, and she possesses a nearly insatiable thirst for knowledge. That's why she's still doing her Certificate after more than half an arc. She wants to know everything and take all the classes - and she takes a lot of electives on top of it.
Notes: Prudence is human and has brown hair.
