~F. Wedekind Academy, established 1891. A fine institution for young minds and bodies to grow and learn. We are a bastion of traditional values. Come. Join us, won’t you?~
Based on the Broadway musical '
Spring Awakening' (and, by extension, the original play) Wedekind Academy is a modern-day AU RP set at F. Wedekind Academy, an isolated, ultra-conservative boarding school. Classes are segregated by sex (male & female, boys & girls, there is nothing beyond that, don't even bring it up). There is no internet access and the library only carries 'approved' books. Discipline is strict and physical. But perhaps there's a little bit of rebellion running through the place all the same.
The characters, of course, will be based on their musical counterparts but adapted to fit the setting (or not; if you can make it work otherwise, go for it) and their backgrounds will be up to the writers. Please take inspiration from either the OBC or Deaf West productions (or both) and use headcanons as you will. Major plot points will be worked in eventually, but for now, we’re just going to let the writers write and let the characters come into their own.
Due to potentially mature themes, we do ask that our players are 16 years or older. There are no length requirements. Players are allowed up to 2 characters at present (this is likely to change because the mod is weak.) If you’re interested in reserving a character for one week, or if you have any questions, please contact me at
clockworkmouse.
Note: OCs will be allowed, but I would like at least the principal characters filled first (denoted by an *). And hey, most of the secondary characters could almost be OCs anyway, yeah? Each player is allowed two characters each, though preferably not two characters that will interact a lot with each other, ie: Melchi/Wendla, Hanschen/Ernst, etc. Also...consider
Melchior and
Hanschen to be on the Most Wanted list because the mod is selfish.
