Have fun!
Could you elaborate? I read it and it left me somewhat confused. Mostly as to where to start. So I'll start with a couple questions.
This topic indicates your looking for more characters in the combatants part of the school, is that right? That being said, the details seemed vague as to if it's all one school. The Arts, Scholars, and Combatants. The only clue I got for that was reading part of the RPs on the 'Main Plot' page, making me believe it is in fact, one school.

The only conflicting note, however, is this statement in the setting. "From there, they are put in schooling systems, which allows each child to explore the various areas of study. When they are fourteen, children pick a school of Scholars, Combatants, or Arts. Here, they will live with a roommate, most likely someone from the group they were raised in." which seems to imply that the arts, scholars, or combatants are various schools to attend for what they specialize in and what the characters want to pursue. If you could clarify that, that'd be great,

Also, how is this energy utilized? The details on that were vague as well, it only explained that it has different effects on everybody and is either powered with the character's mental state and/or physical... maybe?

It's still an intriguing concept, but I'm just a crazy person who strives for detail when it comes to a setting. So any questions answered would be appreciated if I'm to consider trying it out.

Sorry about that, the whole front page is definitely a WIP. I'll probably post this in the group as well, I do enjoy elaborating about my ideas.

There is one school, but it has three schools within that one. So while everybody might be in the same grade, many of their classes are completely different. So, obviously, the combatant students won't be in something the Artits and the Scholars might share because they have the least amount of classes.

Artists can specialize from anything-- for example, drama, painting, drawing, or even literature can be the affinity of an artist. They have more recreation time than the other two schools. They aren't very close to each other due to the cliqués that form because of the diversity of the group. Obviously, those who participate in drama tend to bring just that-- drama, into their classmate's lives.

Scholars have the most classes but also have a decent amount of time to study a particular subject that they may enjoy. They are one of the smaller group, very close knit around each other, but notoriously grumpy around others, especially the combatants. This could because the ideal Scholar enjoys talking about real, tangible things.

Combatants are known for their extremely loud tendencies. They often chant and clap and yell. They are the most passionate of the groups, or at least that's what the King says. They are obsessed with idealistic ideas, brotherhood being the core of it all. They are fiercely loyal to their superiors, and friendly to their classmates. They feel that if one does not get along with another, chaos will ensue. They have the busiest schedule, even with the lack of classes.

So while students will be apart based on the smaller schools within one big school, it is not uncommon for old friends to room with each other, even if they haven't chosen the same small school. Nurturing groups are often completely random, unless one is of royalty. Than their parents will manipulate the whole thing, allowing their children to be put in a group with the children of their friends, of course. Because the royals often do not socialize with others from other groups, these little royal-ing squads are often the strongest, hence, the Royal Guard have been together and learning to fight since they were children. It makes for an impressive show. Their origin will be dove into more as the plot progresses.

The energy is traditionally measured and recorded, and the blood of a student is taken. Many students don't know their parents, so they don't know their genetic history when it comes to abilities and what not. From there, the student is told where they would belong best. The school they choose is all up to to the student themselves.

Often, students are paired with students who are older than they are, or even an Instructor if the administration thinks they're talented enough.

Any other questions?
Actually, I think that covered most of what I was confused about.

Fantastic! So should we be expecting an application from you soon?
I do have one rather important (to me) question in regards to how this energy manifest in combat students.

For instance, can it occur as Electrokinetic Combat? or along other lines of abilities?

Why, yes, it can be used! It won't be called that, but it is the same thing!
