Stepping off the bus, the smells and sounds filled the air around the young Half-Elf. The first steps to his life in the big new city. His family paid for his bus ticket, and sent him on his way after all the time with them to take on the big world he dreamed of. He was even offered multiple places at many different schools. The high mage's collage, famous across the world. The Local special forces squad's academy to learn how to be a high grade officer, serving Ten years minimum before taking on the job fully or working privately. Even a few clubs got calls from your home town of how well you could play a few instruments and offered you a few gigs. But the City is full of different opertunities...maybe you could find something else to go on.
But...what to choose?

A: Mage's Collage.
B: Special Forces Academy
C: Work as a Musician
D: Write in

(If it was not explicitly apparent, this is in a d20 modern setting. There really isn't much of this on /tg/, and I wanted to fix that. Pic loosely related because elves.)

(Mage's college it is, and sorry if I don't pump this stuff out quick enough, I want to make this good.)
Thinking harder for a brief moment, you remember that you really like working with magic. You decide to go to the Mage's College, to master the craft of the Arcane and do what you enjoy. You proceed to head from the bus stop and down the street, humming a brief tune to yourself as you walk. Another quick thought, and you remember that you have a brochure for the Mage College on your person, which you promptly pull from your pocket so you can read it briefly while you traverse the concrete jungle.

As stated previously, the Mage's College is quite well known around the world. It's located within the southern section of the City, and stands as a great dome surrounded by pillars in a Pentagon arrangement. It is the Griswell University of the Arcane, a rather fine establishment. It offers majors in the schools of Healing, Conjuration, Evocation, Illusion, and Abjuration; and minors for the various off-shoots for each major school. You believe there was also a course for Cantrips as well. Luckily for you, the University offers free Room and Board for students who can display a decent competency with magic. So this benefits you, as you don't have much money on you, and you were pretty handy with spells back home.

After about an hour of walking through town, you come across the college. You can now...
A: Find and Go to the main offices
B: Go look around the campus.
C: Go find a student to talk about the courses
D: Write in

(Majority vote, We're going to the office.)

You decide to go to the main offices, to see if you can get that entrance exam taken care of. As you walk along the main path of the campus, you bump into somebody. Brief apologies are exchanged, and the other person gives you a more attentive look.
"Hey... You're not in the student robes. Must be here to apply, right?" they say in an oddly soft voice.
As you focus on the person a little more, you notice that they are female. This woman stands a few inches shorter than you, with long brown hair tied up in a low ponytail. She's wearing what you assume to be the student robes for the college, which are a simple red color.

A: Agree with her and inquire why she asks.
B: Shake your head and keep going, apologizing again for getting in her way.
C: Blink and remain silent.
D: Write in.
>>
>>22128729
D: Flirt with her,

(Very well my audience.)

You nod at this woman, who you now notice is human. "Yeah, I came to apply. Why do you ask?" you reply. She gives you a smile before speaking again.
"Well I'm the Entrance Test Proctor, so you're in luck if you don't feel like shelling out the-" she pauses briefly, and holds up a finger to you, before bringing her arm to her face quickly and sneezing into her elbow. "-the admittance fee. Sorry, a bit under the weather. I think I caught my cousin's cold... Anyway! Before we continue, I should probably introduce myself. My name is Adriana Belkin, and I am an examiner here at the University," she extends a hand out to you. "And you are...?"

What is your name?
A: Write In (I'll pick the name with the most approval.)

>>22129065
(This is our name, remember it well, my Audience. Also, I apologize again for not writing fast enough. I'm a sucker for quality.)

You take her hand and shake it, giving her a small smile. "Alladeen Wintermarch. A pleasure to meet you, Ms. Belkin."
She lets out a brief giggle as she draws her hand away from the shake. "Adriana's fine, Alladeen. A nice traditional name you have. Mind if I call you Al?"
"Not at all." you reply. You never really had a nickname before, so this is a welcome change.
"Great! So, Al... I assume you're familiar with the school's majors?" Adriana crosses her arms and raises an eyebrow quizzically. You simply nod, and she smiles. "Okay. So, cast whatever spell you wish, just tell me what school you're using first."

You mull over your repertoire of spells for a moment...
A: Cast a Healing Spell to get rid of Adriana's cold.
B: Cast a Conjuration spell and summon something.
C: Cast an evocation spell and subject a nearby rock to elemental torment.
D: Cast an Illusion spell and mess with Adriana a little.
E: Cast an Abjuration spell and booby-trap a nearby rock with a rune or glyph
F: Display proficiency with Cantrips
G: Cast a spell from a different school not offered as a major. (Specify school and spell.)

>>22129332
I REQUIRE A CORPSE...find a dead rat to bring back to life.

>>22129332
Try the healing spell first

If that doesnt work maybe we made a cantrip in the past? Show that off if so
>>
>>22129358
If this than use magic to find
>>
>>22129332
D AND THEN WE /d/!
>>
>>22129494
You...Get the fuck out. NO /d/ here!
I change my vote to Catrips.
>>
>>22129512
WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO RIP A CAT?

(sorry couldnt be helped)
>>
>>22129535
That pun made me sick...
>>
>>22129535
Because most cats are assholes.
But not as bad as birds.

No

About half of cats are assholes

>>22129619
Nope.

>>
>>22129682
Dark Souls. There's a really nice weapon called the drake sword you can get by shooting the tail off a dragon.
>>
>>22129702
Ah. Nope.
Made it up a few years ago. Ment it more to be Drake's Word. But the site I went to didn't let me say it like that. So I just put it as Drakesword.
>>
>>22129720
Oh...I read it as drake sword.
>>
>>22129745
Lotta people do.
>>
>>22129350
>>22129512
(It seems Cantrips are popular. Very well. Back on track, guys.)

"Alright... I'm going to use a Cantrip from the... Universal School." You say. A quick muttering under your breath, and a snap of your fingers... Viola! A small ball of light appears and sits there between the two of you for a moment, then you start flicking your index finger around. The ball of light follows your silent commands. and begins circling you and Adriana. The silly glow continues to zip around for a few moments before it settles on your Proctor's head and dissipates.
Adriana giggles for a few moments and gives you a small applause. "Very nice use of Prestidigitation, Al. I'd say you can come in to the school," She turns to walk away, and looks back at you over her shoulder. "Come with me, we'll go get you fitted for your robes."

Do you...
A: Follow her with a proud smile on your face.
B: Stop her and ask if she can show you around first.
C: Wander off on your own.
D: Write in.
>>
>>22129764

>>22129764

Well my friends, this night was fun. But I must leave you for now, as my girlfriend is giving me what I call the "Get off your laptop and on me" look. If you could archive the thread, I would appreciate it. We'll pick up tomorrow with a brief recap, and a revote for the choice. Goodnight, /tg/. Ave Imperator.
