High school is a caste system. Kids fall into certain slots. Jocks and popular kids in the penthouse. Glee kids; Subbasement. What will happen when William Shuester, Spanish teacher, makes it his mission to bring back a glee club that has long since been dormant? Will kids with a dream finally rise above to become popular or will things stay the same?
Edge of Glory is a Glee Series Redo RPG where nothing is canon unless stated in the character biography. What happens next is all up to you.
Est. October 05, 2015
With that being said, moving forward there will be a few changes happening one of which will be an entire revamp at least where it concerns graphics and the like. Of course you all can continue your story lines and rping as usual. This week’s glee assignment will be posted later on tomorrow or on Tuesday at the latest. It will be somewhat business as usual even if I continue with a heavy heart that I’ve lost my teammate and coadmin.
Congrats to Jen! You’ve been accepted as your second character, Lucas (Tyler Blackburn FC)! He sounds adorable with his Parisian past and honestly, we can’t wait to start interacting with him.

IC Information
Desired Character: Lucas Carson (Tyler Blackburn FC)
Quote: “The way that other people judge me is none of my business.”
― Martha N. Beck
Age & Birthday: 17. | October 31st
Grade: Senior at Carmel
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Extra Curriculars: None
Ships: Luke/Chemistry
Anti-Ships: Luke/No Chemistry
Bio Points:
Lucas was born in Paris, France, the second of four children. His father was the top chef at one of the more popular restaurants in the city while his mother was an up and coming lawyer. When Lucas was ten his father got an offer for a job in New York so the family packed up everything they owned and flew to the United States to become American citizens.
The first few years in America were tough for the family, having to learn and entire new language and set of customs. Fortunately his parents were smart enough to hire teachers for their children and Lucas was able to master English and become fluent by the time he began high school. While he still messes up words every now and then, and his accent is pretty thick, he’s by far the second best English speaker in his family, the first being his younger sister.
In the middle of Lucas’ freshman year of high school his mother got transferred to a firm in Westerville, Ohio. With his father still doing well and unable to leave his job in New York, the two agreed to live apart for their jobs with frequent visits back and forth. His younger sister chose to stay in New York with their father while Lucas and his baby sister made the move to Ohio with their mother. His older brother had already left for college by that time so he transferred to Carmel High and immediately became interested in Vocal Adrenaline. He could sing. At least when he sang everyone understood him.
Lucas often gets a reputation as being a bad boy because of the way he carries himself and how most of the time he can be found sitting in a corner not talking to anyone with his face in a book. The biggest reason he keeps to himself is that he knows many people have trouble understanding him and often don’t put forth the effort. He’d just rather stay to himself.
Connections:
Dani Cortez - She’s one of the few people Luke is comfortable talking to because ever since meeting him, she’s been patient enough to not only understand him but help him with his common mistakes. He considers her one of his only friends in Westerville.
Taylor Scott - Luke doesn’t know her all that well but he definitely admires her. He respects that she knows what she wants and is passionate about VA, more so than a lot of other people. He never really minds when she asks for extra effort.
Jesse St. James - To be honest, Luke doesn’t like Jesse very much. He thinks he’s arrogant, self-centered and way too cocky. Sure he’s a great singer but Luke has heard much better. He keeps his mouth shut though. He doesn’t care enough.
IC QUESTIONNAIRE:
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE GLEE CLUB AND WHY? I think its great fun. I like singing and I think some people take the competition part very seriously but still, it’s fun.
WHAT’S YOUR BIGGEST REGRET? I don’t know. I try not to think of the past, just the future and how I can be better.
WHAT IS YOUR PLAN FOR AFTER HIGH SCHOOL? College. I don’t know what I want to major in but maybe go back to Paris and study there or somewhere new, like London.
DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE CLASS? IF SO, WHY IS IT YOUR FAVORITE? I like math. I am very good at it so it makes me like it.
I’ve been thinking long and hard all weekend about our next assignment. We’ve all come a long way as a group, but I feel like we need to remember who we are as people in order to become a better team and take the victory at Regionals. This week your task is to get in touch with your nostalgic sides. I want you all to dig deep and perform a song that makes you feel nostalgic and reminds you of who you really are.
As always, I’m here to help you out if you need it. You’re all free to stop by my classroom or office and we can talk. The deadline for this assignment is Sunday, February 7th, and as always don’t forget to tag your posts with eogglee.
So this is EZEKIEL “ZEKE” CASTOR. He is currently SEVENTEEN and a JUNIOR at DALTON ACADEMY. He currently identifies as PANSEXUAL and is currently SINGLE. People say she looks a lot like LIAM HEMSWORTH but Zeke says otherwise.
BIOGRAPHY ⇨
Oblivious isn’t exactly the word to describe Zeke. Not because it doesn’t apply, but because he is the epitome of it’s stem meaning. Having grown up with his nose in a book, and never having been discouraged from this, has left him with a loss for the real world.
While his knowledge in things that most would deem unnecessary or ‘for fun,’ is great, it doesn’t exactly help him in matters of social circles.
Still, his lack of social skills hasn’t kept him from throwing himself into any and every extra curricular activity for the sake of not becoming inept.
But he spends so much time in far off worlds, learning about everyone else, that he often forgets to enjoy his own, and get to know himself. When he’s home from school–but not reading, he’s helping his mother and sister raise his Nephew. (His sister got pregnant last year at 15 and they recently welcomed a baby boy into the world. The miracle of life was something of blank book that Zeke couldn’t wait to be a part of writing).
Extra curricular activities include Dalton Warblers Lacrosse, Yearbook/Journalism, Debate Team, Library Assistant and Tutoring

IC QUESTIONNAIRE ⇨
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE GLEE CLUB AND WHY? Considering Glee Club is another form of what the Warblers do, I’d say my thoughts on the idea are positive. However, since they are one of our rivals my positivity stops there. I have nothing against any of the individuals but my sense of loyalty and competitiveness trumps.
WHAT’S YOUR BIGGEST REGRET? I find regret to be an illusive enemy and therefor have no room for it in my life. Everything I’ve done and gone through has made me the person I am today.
WHAT IS YOUR PLAN FOR AFTER HIGH SCHOOL? I’d love to do a bit of traveling and find a journalism job that could eventually lead to something more editorial. But if I’m being realistic, my current plan is to take over my grandfathers hardware store.
DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE CLASS? IF SO, WHY IS IT YOUR FAVORITE? Creative Writing. I think that speaks for itself.
So this is GAGE DYER. He is currently SIXTEEN and a JUNIOR at MCKINLEY HIGH. She currently identifies as CLOSET BISEXUAL and is currently SINGLE. People say she looks a lot like DYLAN O’BRIEN but Gage says otherwise.
BIOGRAPHY ⇨
Growing up, Gage had what should have been the most ideal childhood. He was adopted by his parents after being taken away from his birth mother who was found unfit ate the ripe age of three. His new family raised him in Lima, Ohio and did everything in their power to give he and his older sister the world.
Gage was the guy you’d expect to almost always have a smile on his face. Making friends was never a problem for him. He joined art club and tried out for the lacrosse team his freshman year and loved every second of it.
His sophomore year when parts of his life grew a little more complicated he was convinced by his guidance counselor to join Glee club in the attempt at keeping himself busy and completely distracting him from his life back home.
Gage’s parents left him with his aunt and uncle during the second semester of his freshman year. Not to run away from Lima but to keep him from seeing their life style. Their sick addiction to drugs. The last Gage ever saw of them was when his mother came home to see him and to tell him she wanted to come home, get better, and raise her son. However his father, in rage that she’d quit and in fear that she would leave him thought up a plan that would devastate their family. It ended with him taking his own wife’s life and than his own right in front of their children during the winter break of Gage’s sophomore year. It’s a scar he feared he would never quite be able to heal from. Fortunately Gage learned to hide it well, in hopes to keep the rumors about his family to a minimum.
He willingly joined the first club his guidance counselor suggested as a plan to keep his mind busy and even more of his after school time taken up with extra curricular’s.
Extra curricular activities include Lacrosse, Glee Club and Art Club.
CONNECTIONS ⇨
Sam Evans: The two have a deep love for art that has drawn Gage to joining the art club that Sam started at McKinley.
Natalie Hastings: The two seemingly bubbly members of art club. The two seem to get along fairly well.
Santana Lopez: The girl next door who knows far too much about Gage’s family life that he is trying to hide. The two have an unspoken rule about not talking about the night that changed everything in Gage’s life.
IC QUESTIONNAIRE ⇨
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE GLEE CLUB AND WHY? I mean it’s alright. I always thought the whole randomly bursting out into song thing was saved for the movies but I guess not. Obviously stranger things have happened. I also find it a little bizarre that everyone in this club is oddly good looking.
WHAT’S YOUR BIGGEST REGRET? My biggest regret was not being able to protect my family when the incident occurred. I just felt totally helpless the whole time. I felt lost and empty and my counselor said joining another club is somehow supposed to help fill that?
WHAT IS YOUR PLAN FOR AFTER HIGH SCHOOL? I don’t really know what my plans are because I’m not sure what I can afford. I guess I’m kind of hoping for some kind of scholarship if I want any hope of being able to afford going to college. My aunt and uncle aren’t the richest folks in town.
DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE CLASS? IF SO, WHY IS IT YOUR FAVORITE? I really like my art classes. I guess because they’re something I’m actually pretty good at so I don’t really have to think to much. I like building stuff with my hands. I also really like chemistry because we get to blow stuff up.

Alright, everyone it’s taken me a while to think of this week’s assignment. I was leaning towards Smooth Jazz and talking to everyone about Michael Bolton, but other things have come to my attention. As a team if one member is hurting the entire team suffers. We aren’t just a team-- we’re a family. When one of our own is falling it’s up to us to pick them back up. Glee club isn’t just about competition or about the music, from last week we learned that it can be about emotion and healing. Brittany, I just want you to know that we see what’s happened and that we see your cry for help.
With that said this week is will be all about Brittany, and another Britney. That’s right it’s
Britney Spears week.
As for the members of Vocal Adrenaline you can use some of that variety that you’ve all been showing. As for the warblers this is just going to be a chance for you all to come into your own through the power of a pop princess.
You all have until Monday, February 1st to post your assignments. As a reminder, don’t forget to tag your post with “eogglee.”
