[Location] Once in a Blue Moon Sleeping Quarters

[Creeper]

Layout : Once In A Blue Moon Sleeping Quarters, also known as the "Quarters" or "Akalak Dorm House", is located on Petal of Adamant Devotion. Off by itself and only surrounded by the other training areas, the Quarters is a well-built building large enough to hold up to twenty five Akalaks; one Overseer and twenty four exchange. There is very little personal space and whatever the trainees bring with them must fit inside a personal trunk stationed at the end of their bed. The beds themselves are situated as bunks, one atop the other. One of the two closest to the door is where the overseer sleeps. In the middle of the room, an eating table resides. This holds only twelve individuals, but it is not necessary to eat at the sitting places. The bathroom is near the door and one unlucky individual is picked each week to clean it, if someone is not sentenced to it. The smell is often horrendous nearing the end of seven days. Next to the Overseer's bed, there is a tiny room. Unlike the entrance, the room has a door. Inside, the individual cannot hear anything on the outside. There is a stool inside with a lamp sitting on top. A hard cushion is on the floor. In one of the corners, a potted plant hides. It gives off a relaxing aroma, helping the individual stay calm. There are strict rules to be followed in the Akalak Dorm House. 1) Anyone who steps out of line and risks harming others will be sent to the Isolated Meditation Area. This is a room next to the overseer's bed specifically designed for meditating. The sentencing, depending on the type of situation, could be for up to six bells. The Akalak will remain in the room for six bells. 2) Everyone is to be accounted for by dark, as the curfew is then. Those who are not inside the quarters by dusk risk bathroom duty, lecturing, and excessive training. Three times of missing curfew and the individual will stand before the Memory for a type of trial. They will plead their case, have others defend them on their behalf, and the Memory will decide whether the individual should be sent back to Riverfall. 3) The living space is to be kept clean. There is very little excess space in the building and clutter risks fire and endangerment of others. Once a week, the overseer will randomly examine the quarters. Those who are not living in clean environments risk bathroom duty, cooking duty or being sentenced to be a housekeeper for a Spires citizen for two weeks. 4) There is a house meeting once a week to discuss progress with the Akalak's training. If one of the trainees is tardy to the meeting without probable cause, they will be excused from the building until the meeting is over. The Akalak risks bathroom duty, cooking duty, or becoming a housekeeper. 5) Any type of sentencing handed out is to be the first priority above work or training. If an individual skips their scheduled time of duty, they will stand before the Memory. If the person is a housekeeper and is rude, they will stand before the memory.   Shrawn Name: Shrawn Race: Jamoura DoB: 178 AV PoB: The Spires Title: Deacon, Overseer Skills: •Meditation 66, Teaching 55, Wilderness Survival 76, Logic 45, Leadership 45 [Appearance] Large and chubby, Shrawn stands at eight feet and weighs nearly six-hundred-and-fifty pounds. Black hair covers his body, except his torso and face. Unless he is overseeing, thick lips often part in a smile. Twinkling grey eyes hold somber secrets and joyous humor. An outstretched belly causes Shrawn to waddle when walking. [Personality] Shrawn is a giant teddy-bear. He is kind-hearted and easy-going. Ideas and suggestions are agreed to more often than not. Shrawn tends to follow the thoughts through, if he remembers that is! Overburdening himself is a high risk, leaving Shrawn stressed and snappy. Children are adored and cherished, but barely tolerated for more than a bell. Especially those that cry and whine. When it comes to overseeing, Shrawn turns serious. He dislikes any mess and disorder. He also resides on the bench which will judge a troubled Akalak. Decisions are reached based on what he has seen in the dorms and on the training areas. [History] Shrawn was born in The Spires and left his family's home at two hundred years. He sought to make a name for himself. The stress caused him to become a person he wasn't and he took up meditating, finding it relaxed him immensely. Wanting to share the love of meditating, Shrawn began to teach topics such as meditation and wilderness survival. A hundred and thirty four years later and Shrawn was still doing the same thing. He had evolved from a citizen to a deacon over the years. When the exchange program became public after the Djed Storm of 512 AV, Shrawn was elected to oversee the exchange students.   Mikali Name: Mikali/Mohn Race: Akalak DoB: 300 AV PoB: Riverfall Title: Overseer Skills: Leadership 62, Organization 64, Cleaning 66, Meditation 65, Brawling 67 Mikali is an intimidating person. He has been known to hand out the most punishments. Jokes rarely fall from his lips and laughter is extraordinary. He holds himself with high regard, believing he sets an example for others. Women are precious and should be handled with care. Trained, blue muscles are always tense, ready for action. Mikali believes everything has a place and every place has a thing. If there is disorganization, there is a cluttered mind and lazy goals. On the opposite spectrum, Mohn loves lounging around. Mohn has a quick temper and has been the product of more than a dozen broken bones. In fact, Mohn was the cause for a spiderweb of scars tracing over their back. A loose tongue resides in their mouth, and dirty words slap women more than once when Mohn is in control. He believes women are inferior and good for nothing more than a roll in the hay. Mohn is the more easygoing of the two. The pair reached an agreement, mentally, after years of meditation. When at work, Mikali has control. Off duty, Mohn controls and cannot start a fight. This helps keep Mikali from becoming too stressed and Mohn from becoming to mentally abusive. Moderator's Notes: This Location requires no Moderation. *Full Credit goes to Lixue
