Introduction
Credit to Orson Scott Card for writing Ender's Game
The year is 2097, eighty-four years after the first bugger attack. Earth now knows that they are not alone, Humans are not the only advanced, living species. The buggers destroyed us in the first war. Once we killed their queen though, they retreated. If such had never happened, the Human population would probably already be endangered. America has issued a population control law, a married couple may only have two children. Sometimes, when the genes are excellent, they are permitted to have a Third. These kids though, the Thirds, aren't considered to be as good as the other kids. In other words, they are societies outcasts.
Children are tested thoroughly, given a monitor as soon as they are born so that the government can keep check on them. If they're removed, you haven't made it. If they aren't, you'll end up at Battle School. These are the kids that have made it, and now they're leaving their family with nothing of their own, heading off to a place they do not know. The journey takes a few weeks, but soon they're up in space and heading towards the Battle School. It's odd for the children, the floors slant upwards, you share a room with your teammates. You don't talk about your past or your family because once you're here, you can't leave, can't talk with them.
Your desk is your lifeline here, it's a portable, touchscreen laptop-like device where you can send and receive messages, either from students or teachers. This is where you take tests, or study. There are games, all educational, of course. There is the Battle Room, a zero-gravity area, where the objective is to either eliminate all of the opposing team's members by freezing them with a pistol or by getting more than a certain amount of group members to the opposing team's Gate. There is the Game Room, where students may compete against one another or practice by themselves, playing the computer. There are sixteen different Battle Rooms, which are often used for training, no two teams may use the same one at a time.
Rooms are usually organized the way your army leader wants it to be, as is customary the older members are in the front and the younger are in the back. The commander gets his own quarters which will be close by, but far enough away to have his or her own space. Oh, yes, very few girls actually get into Battle School. Most of it's students are male.

Re: Battle School - Ender's Game
My computer glitched out and posted a character named cAR. I'm so mad at this piece of crap right now im sorry can you delete that
Re: Battle School - Ender's Game
Love Ender's game! Definitely will join! :D Please reserve a male for the Water Army for me, citrus brother!
Re: Battle School - Ender's Game
- So many people, yay! I wasn't expecting it since the little conversation up there, xD.
@A Castle, You can certainly play the Air Army Leader, C: I didn't plan on having so many females, but you could make it a female if you wanted(though I see you said male, just wanted you to have the option (: ). I don't have my own character completed yet, so I don't have an example. Though on the Information page there should be a character sheet if you want to use that, it includes everything I *want* to see when you submit your character. But feel free to elaborate and all.
@suigenic, I'll reserve you a spot, cx The books were amazing, and honestly I can't wait to see the movie too. (okay, it might partially be because Asa Butterfield is playing Ender.)
@xfaithyx123, Yes you may, (:
@Lolkatlove, I'll reserve the spot for you, (: And what I said to A Castle is the same here, if you want to make a female and so does Castle, it's alright.
@Everyone, Just like Castle said, you can read up on the series on Sparknotes! It's a really interesting book, definitely worth reading about. <3
Re: Battle School - Ender's Game
Spoiler Alert: http://www.sparknotes.com/lit/endersgame/summary.html
^ Those are the complete Spark Notes for the book if you're interested (:
It really is a fantastic book, and worth the read!
Lolkat, I took a glance at your previous characters and it looks like you like to play mostly female characters. I was planning on playing a male anyways, so it works out great!

Re: Battle School - Ender's Game
Hello, i'm not familiar with enders game, but this does sound really interesting >:) If possible, could I reserve Air second commander?
I would choose to make my character female but if A Castle is going to make a female I shall make a male.
SO, A Castle what you making ?

Re: Battle School - Ender's Game
Hello!
I'm brand new to this type of RP, but I thoroughly enjoyed the Ender's Game series and would like to participate. I write in my spare time and I have an active imagination, so I think I would be a good asset to Battle School.
I'm interested in the position for Air Army Leader.
Is there a filled-out, sample character sheet you could send me for this? (To give me a basic idea of what you expect)
I guess I can start by creating a character sheet then, and take it from there.
Lastly, I might be able to pull one of my friends in to help fill up slots.
Oh, and my favourite colour is charcoal.
Thanks in advance!

Have fun! =D
P.S.
Maybe when someone is asking a question about your role play try not shoving them off right away? I was interested until you 'politely' showed me the door. Good luck with this.
I love how you automatically assume it's one of those "crappy fan-fic rp"s. I didn't even know they were making a movie until a little bit ago, I just finished reading the book. Never had a Hunger Games or Hobbit role play, actually hate them, XD.
P.S.
Maybe when you're asking someone a question you shouldn't assume and should try being less rude. (: Thank you!

- So have I, and you're right, there was nothing about homosexuality. This is my version, it's loosely based off of the books, the idea of them. ^.^ Thanks for dropping by, if you aren't interested in the role play, please leave it be.
@Ever, my show color is purple! cx Sure, I'll reserve her for you.
