Good evening guys, gals, and nonbinary pals! It’s your friendly neighborhood Luxe Academy Admin, coming at you live from my couch! With our Halloween event wrapping up within the next couple of days, things are finally beginning to settle down in the halls of Luxe Academy. That’s alright, though. Our lovely members need a break before our next plot drop, which will be happening this weekend! Now is the perfect time to get in on the action here at Luxe Academy. We are an inclusive, welcoming, friendly, and accepting group for anyone looking for a place to explore and develop their muses! Come on over and check us out, we’d love to see you join our little family!

Canon trans muse anon here- I am so so happy to hear that last part! I've been in RPs before where only explicitly stated trans charas were allowed to be played as trans so this is great! I'm considering some other muses first but I will *definitely* be apping someone in the near future <3

We're so happy to hear that you're happy, 'Nonny, and we're certainly looking forward to seeing your app! I just want to reiterate (not just for you, but for anyone else who may be reading this, 'Nonny) that we strongly believe in inclusivity and recognition here. In fact, half of our Admin team is made up by a POC, non-CIS man. Representation is such an important part of RP, and trans characters are unfortunately some of the most underutilized in writing today. Again, there truly is no way to know for sure that any character isn't trans, and it's not something for anyone in the community to police. Assuming that you're able to identify someone as CIS or trans simply by looking at them is a very detrimental way of thinking, and a hurtful one at that. It should be just as easy to assume someone is trans to assume someone is CIS- though really, these things shouldn't be assumed at all. So, long story short, bring all of your beans to me Anon, we're here for you and for them all! <3

Hello and the best of evenings to you all! Thank you so much to our wonderful members for sticking with us, things have been a little tough on the Admin side of things, but we are getting put back together slowly but surely. That said, I have a couple of quick updates for everyone, so that we may all proceed on the same page!

Student Government Elections have been extended to Friday, October 1, 2021! Voting will be held at that time, so players are still 100% free to make posts and hold events for their campaigns! Voting will take place in the OOC Discord. The floor will be opened to votes at 5:00 PM EST on Friday, 10/1 and will remain open until 11:59 PM Friday, 10/1!

The Previously Scheduled Marked Games will take place next week. Please keep an eye on the main for further updates on how this will work, and what the new schedules will look like!

There will be no Activity Check this week! Admin activity has been low recently, due to some personal/medical issues. That said, this week will be a free week for everyone. Activity Checks will resume next Saturday, 10/2, as normal. Anyone who has been inactive for more than 5 days at that point will be placed on Warning, and will have 48 hours to post IC or risk losing their spot in the RP!

As always, anyone with questions is both welcome and encouraged to reach out to the Main, or an Admin!

Welcome, welcome one and all to the grand reopening of Luxe Academy! I’m so grateful and excited to have you all here with us! A couple of quick things/requests, as we move forward! As always, anyone with questions or concerns is welcome to reach out to the main at any time! Thanks for helping to make this the best opening day ever!

First, please make sure you’ve read through the Student Handbook, the Soulmate Information, and the Student Points Explanation! These have been updated with the revamp, and this is definitely important information for everyone to have moving forward!

Second, please take a moment sometime within the next 72 hours to post both your Class Schedules and which Clubs and Teams your character is involved in! 

Third, given how things are moving, a Starter Blog is in the works! It may be tomorrow before I’m able to get it up, but it will be created! So, when I post the follow link for that, please make sure to hit that ‘Follow’ button! We don’t want anyone feeling left out or ignored.

Fourth, I’m still playing around with the idea of re-opening the Discord. It would be totally OOC and optional. Please let me know your preference ASAP!

Finally, I’m tossing around the idea of a Gossip Blog. I think it would go well with a setting like this! If that’s something you absolutely do not want, or do not want your characters to participate in, please let me know!

Happy afternoon everyone, and a very joyful opening day to you all! Unfortunately I have had a work emergency that is going to keep me occupied until later tonight, BUT you are all more than welcome to get things kicked off. I’ll be on as soon as I can, and we’ll get this party really started! If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out!

[luxeacademyhqs]

Good early, early morning loves! Today is opening day, and Admin Chris and I simply could not be more excited! I spent a good portion of time tonight updating things on the main, including the Roommate Lists. When you get the chance, head over and take a look, see who your characters are rooming with, and use that to begin making some connections! A few quick notes before we get this ball rolling:

After some consideration, I have decided that I will be creating an OOC Discord server. I’ll send everyone the link via Tumblr DMs once I’ve got it put together. Please note, this is completely optional. If you do not wish to join, please let me know when I send you the link, and I’ll make sure to keep you updated OOC of whatever is happening in the server. 

Remember to get those bios/intros posted, so everyone has an idea of who your character is! 

If you haven’t yet, head on over and take a quick look at the Classes and Clubs. Once the Discord is up and running, I’ll have channels for everyone to post what their character(s) is/are involved in, so that shared classes and clubs can be used for plotting/interactions.

Also, if you haven’t checked out the Formatting Guide yet, please take a quick minute to do so! Anyone with questions is more than welcome to reach out to Admin Chris or myself! 

We are definitely looking for/welcoming anyone interested in taking one of the Club Captain spots. Club Captain characters are required to make ‘club challenge’ posts at least twice a month, but these are easy-peasy and can simply be a social media challenge (i.e. whomever captains the Book Club might make a post discussing their favorite book, and then challenges others to make a post discussing their own favorite). 

Thank you all so much for being here and for being interested in exploring this world with us! Admin Chris and myself are both beyond excited to get the ball rolling!

Hey there, hi there, hello and how are you? Welcome, members, to our very first Admin Note. Can you tell I’m excited? Anyhoot, I know I mentioned it in the generalized post from the tags, but I wanted to formally announce a couple of things:

1.) I’d like to go ahead and open the RP for plotting. I’ll be posting the follow links I do have here in a moment. Feel free to reach out using Tumblr to get to know your fellow members, and see if we can’t get some connections going! Please note: I am still considering how to go about an OOC setting for those who are interested. If you have a couple of spare moments, please message me here and let me know what you’d like to see- an OOC Discord, or an OOC Blog. Or, if you prefer not to participate in an OOC setting, please let me know that as well! 

2.) I’d like to go ahead and schedule the opening of Luxe Academy for Saturday, August 14, 2021 at 4 PM EST. Don’t worry if you are unable to get on precisely at that time, that is simply the time I’ll open the floor for starters and interactions! Join us on the dash whenever you’re able. 

3.) Please remember to post bios/introductions sometime in the next 72 hours! 

4.) We’re going to be kicking things off and getting things moving right out of the gate, so keep your gorgeous eyes peeled for notes regarding the Week of Welcome from your one and only Headmistress!
