Welcome to Academy Island, home of riders and trainers, blacksmiths and farmers. Oh, and of course, dragons.

This is the only place in the world with such a high concentration of dragons, made successful by strategic housing and fantastic instructors. Dragons are trained with their prospective riders, bred every five years, and cared for their whole lives. The island and surrounding ocean is home to eight different dragon species, ranging from the fairly small Scottish Leprechauns to the legendary Norse Leviathan.

If you want a place here, you’ll need two things: a job and a dragon. Every dragon can help out with certain jobs, but sometimes your job is to look after a dragon.

Across the sea, and yet unknown to the Isle of Dragons, the dark king Abigor reigns at his fortress, Hellgate. He’s building an army of a brand new dragon species. By breeding Swiss Mountain Dragons with the last great land leviathan, the Great Mountain, Abigor has amassed scores of dangerous and powerful dragons.

If you choose to throw your lot in with him, your options are more limited. Of the four roles, only three are allowed a dragon companion.

To apply for this verse, please submit the following filled out for your character. We request that all applicants be human, so if your muse is otherwise they’ll need a human verse. If you run a multi-muse blog, you may submit applications for as many muses as you can keep up with. If you need some ideas, take a look at our Historical Context page.

Name: Age: FC: Academy Island/Hellgate (please choose one) Role: Dragon companion: Short bio: (include whether your character was born on the island or travelled there and how they found it)

The ten dragon species currently discovered are as follows:

Swiss Mountain Dragon (Draconis Crystallus) English Hill Loper (Serpentis Britania) Guardian of Moors (Indus Susceptoris) Chinese Forest Dragon (Serpentis Sylvaniis) Norse Leviathan (Gigantis Mareanis) Scottish Leprechaun (Draconis Minoris) African Cave Dragon (Gigantis Africanis) Himalayan Rocket (Draconis Celeris) Great Mountain (Gigantis Saxis) Ice Spear, “Flying Boulders” (Saxis Volantis)

Please read through the dragon profiles before choosing a role, as certain roles are limited as to what dragon companion you can have.

For Academy Island, roles are as follows:

Rider Husbandry Trainer Blacksmith/Craftsman Medic Scout Cook Farmer Fisherman Researcher

Also take note that the three Leviathans, Great Mountain, the African Cave Dragon and the Norse Leviathan, are unique. Once someone claims them, no one else can have them as a companion.

For Hellgate, the roles are as follows:

Breeder Trainer Soldier Slave

Anyone is welcome to apply, but if we get a surge of certain roles, some applications may be held until things even out. If this happens, we will give you an opportunity to choose another role. Note that the leaders of both the Island and Hellgate are already chosen. Once you’re approved, please write up a more detailed bio for your own page.

Tracking the tag ‘draconacademyrp’. For Academy Island threads, also tag ‘dragons; island bound’. For Hellgate, tag ‘dragons; Hellgate’. Please reblog this post if applying.

Guys, I'm turning this into an archive. I haven't had Willow as a muse in a long time, and I don't think she's coming back.

However, Icarus is still around, so I made him a side blog. Go check it out! And then unfollow this blog.

Yee-haw it’s a supernatural giveaway

So, I’ve never done a giveaway before but I just moved and it really brought to light how much stuff I have that I don’t need or have any interest in; I figured someone on this site would find my trash to be treasure. Here’s what’s included:

- a big bad (and I mean BIG) Supernatural handbook/guide/whatever, “The Essential Supernatural: On the Road with Sam and Dean Winchester”. Basically this thing takes the show season by season and showers you in stills from the set, interviews with the cast and crew, and fun behind the scenes knowledge and lore. There’s also a foreword, and episode guide, some character (and actor) profiles, and some goodies taped to the pages (ones I hadn’t taken off when I originally got it. The book came with loads of stuff taped to/inside of it, but most of it is gone. What’s here is pictured: some postcards with hotels from the show pictured on the front, a couple old school book posters (from the Supernatural series by Carver Edlund), and some….I’m not sure what those are. Small paper advertisements for whiskey?

- ONE OF THE POSTERS IS SIGNED BY JARED AND JENSEN. I do not have it on hand because I had to leave early from ChiCon and had a friend use my gold pass to have them sign the item. I will have it by the end of the giveaway to send off.

- a ukulele signed by Misha Collins. A weird thing to have, but there it is. It was a last minute prop for a photo op, but I don’t really play the uke anymore and if I wanted to restart, I can always pick one up again. Point is, I know someone out there wants a signed uke more than I do, and the picture is all that matters to me anymore.

So! There it is. Rules:

I’ll use an random number generator. Like and reblog as much or as little as you want, just be courteous to your followers. You don’t have to follow me, because I don’t actually post about the show anymore, so that would be mean of me to make you do.

Giveaway ends August 20th, in roughly a month. Maybe a little more? I haven’t looked at the calendar in a while.

Have fun, yo

Here we go again with a new Art Assignment! This week, Fritz Haeg tasked us with making a rug out of old clothing. I happened to have a bag of shirts I was planning on donating, but they were donated to the cause of art instead.

I cut as I went so I didn’t end up cutting shirts I didn’t need. I started out intending to rainbow out from the middle, but since I was missing yellow and green, this idea was scrapped.

I got a fair ways before realizing I was making more of a bag than a rug, so I had to let out a lot of it and start over, adding more stitches this time around.

When I was cutting the last few shirts, I got to one of my old University of Pennsylvania T’s that has the School of Arts and Sciences crest on it. It made me think about when I had purchased the shirt and all the memories at Penn, and I got kind of nostalgic and sad.

I really looked at all of the shirts I was using, some of which I’d had for eight years. Each one has a story, either of when I got it, when I would wear it, or whom it reminded me of. The center shirt was one I used to wear on Christmas Day, and the orange one was my Samhain shirt for school after I started exploring Wicca. Two of the shirts were Beatles T’s that my step mom had gotten me for Christmas, and one of the blue one’s was a gift from my mother in law from her trip to Israel. Two of them were Penn shirts, another from when I worked at a bar in college, and all of them had had a purpose at one time.

I realized that I was using objects from my past to create something for my future, and that’s how I like to live my life. All my choices build a foundation for who I am and what I do, including the bad choices. It made me realize that I’ve come farther than I thought, and I’m still moving forward. What was once clothing is now a very soft meditation rug.

I really enjoyed this art assignment, and I hope you guys will give it a shot. Function meets art and yields a result of which you’ll be proud. Mine even rolls up into a perfect travel pillow!
