Character:
Tobias Alexi Sever
Location:
Hall of Two Paths
School:
Spellbreaking
Tobias had been forced to turn in his equipment in favor of school-issued variations. Not to mention this school apparently had a strict dress code. He despised uniforms in every manner, what good was making everyone look identical supposed to do rather than give them some kind of complex? At least he didn't have to wear it all the time, but still: his own equipment had just fine. Better looking than this drag too.
Still, he had kept the jade dagger he had taken years before hidden under his traveling clothes. He didn't keeping it was against some kind of regulation or not,
no one
was about to rob him of the prize he had earned.
He sat down by a group of students who were busily talking and began eating. Though he would have prefered a little peace and quiet, he supposed this was as close to it as he was going to get for a long, long time. He set his rucksack on the floor between his feet and the chair. He wasn't about to risk anyone running off with the belongings he had been allowed to keep, least of all some battlemage (though they, at least, were more respectable compared to the dress-wearing casters).
Still, he just needed to wait for classes to start, then he would be able to learn what it was he had come here to learn. The finest points in the art of spellbreaking (a talent of his that he was already well familiar with) would be putty in his hands. The ability to turn aside any and all magic at his fingertips.
Ambitious? Yes, yes he was.

Veraldine, Arthur, Miss Skivvers
Location:
Mage Tower
Vera sighed happily, but forced herself out of the thoroughly destroyed covers. Grabbing her bag, she threw open the chest and began to deposit in an almost random assortment her things inside. But there was a method to her madness, and once everything was actually fairly inside the chest she shifted them around out of sight hiding some, leaving in plain sight others. She would have to get a false bottom made for this thing, she reflected.

"Greetings," Octavian said, nodding at the the other human. "How goes it?"

"Before or after they took my stuff?" Tobias asked in abrupt manner, he stopped his eating and looked over at the other human. He silently awaited an honest response.

"Well, 'goes' being in the present tense and our stuff having already been taken, I would shoot for 'after,'" Octavian replied.

"They took my stuff," Tobias repeated, slower. "So you could say I'm a little peeved at the moment."

Octavian waved a hand. "Possessions are transient. You, yourself is what is truly worth the most, more than any possession. Hone yourself, and you become a living weapon, able to strike down anything in your path.'

"You sound like one of those air-flinging casters," said Tobias. "Perhaps you're in the wrong building? Your dress-wearing friends already left."

Octavian fixed him with a steady stare. "Those "air flinging casters" are the scum of humanity," Octavian said quietly. "If I had my way, each and every one would be put through the training of a common soldier, like I was, before learning of their true heritage. Discipline, strength, regard for their fellow soldiers; all these must be instilled in them before their great power is given. Responsibility comes first. Only after it is learned are the perks given."

Tobias smiled as the other man reffered to the casters as the "scum of humanity." Although he could not relate to anything else in the other man's history, he felt that their common dislike of casters was equal footing enough. He extended a hand towards Octavian. "Tobias Sever," he introduced himself, "studying Spellbreaking."

"Octavian Cassius," Octavian replied, shaking his hand. "I, too, am a spellbreaker."

"The ring on your finger is a dead giveaway, Tobias," Siber japed, "But still, it is good indeed to meet a fellow-minded individual. Siber Antares," he spoke, waiting for the two to shake hands before extending his own.

Tobias shook Siber's hand. "I'm honestly surprised to find so many of our discipline here," he said. "I had thought for sure there would have been more true battlemages here, the kind that focus on the enhancement of their weapons or othersuch spells."

"There are many mages in this Collegium; it just so happens that the ones with a penchant for destruction number roughly the same as us," Siber shrugged.
"And I would not dismiss the possibility of the administration keeping us in equal numbers deliberately. We
are
going to compete against them, after all."

"I'm...I'm quite alright, Siber," Kim replied as soon as the food in her mouth was chewed and swallowed, but without taking her critical eye off 'Tobias'.

"Numbers don't mean anything to me," Tobias said. "I haven't met a mage yet that stands a chance against me." He saw the woman staring at him. "Something I can help you with?" he asked her.

Kim pointed to her cheek, which (along with the rest of her lower face) was already busy processing more food. After a few seconds she forced it all down and shrugged. "May I tempt you all with some modesty?" she said and held out an empty saucer, as if presenting yet another delicious dish, accompanied by a light-hearted grin.

"False humility is more prideful than honest appraisal," Octavian replied instantly.
