About Houses

House Guidelines

Black house has the students with the least physical or mental shifts. They were admitted to the school purely because of their intelligence, which is almost always higher than that of the other house's students. Most Black house students are Immune type.

Black house is one of two houses where the students are allowed outside, as the students in Black house are the "face" of the Academy. They are allowed to return to their families during holidays, and most do so.

Black house students tend to look down on physical-shifters.

White house has the students with the most mental shifts. Most White house students are Mental-Shift type. Combination-shift types are admitted if their Mental-shift powers are at the same skill level as full Mental-shifts.

White house students are generally allowed outside and to go on trips and holidays. They are not, however, allowed to visit any family as it is feared that their powers might be revealed.

The majority of White house students look down on all students not in their house. As they possess the most unusual powers in the Academy, White house students tend to feel they are "special". While not all the White house students share these views, few care to speak out about it.

Grey house has the students with the most physical shifts. Most Grey house students are Physical-Shift type and this house is the only one in which full Physical-shift types are found. Combination-shift types are admitted if their post-radiation Physical-shift are exceedingly apparent (i.e. they're way too visible).

Grey House students never see the outside world. As such, they live in a community of virtually their own design and are have a very rigid class and social structure.

Students from Grey house are the underdogs of Halcyon academy. Despite the fact that almost all are stronger than the other House students, and most have sensory advantages, their physical appearance (despite the fact that it almost never makes them look actually ugly, it's just really weird) gives other students an easy topic to bully them about.

Blue house has the students with a combination of physical and mental shifts. All Blue house students are Combination type.

Blue House is reserved for Combination types with a relatively 50-50 distribution of Mental and Physical shifts (i.e. it's not strong enough for them to be placed in Grey or White house, but not weak enough for them to be in Black house.) Physical shifts on these type take up no more than 50% of their total body's appearance, and Mental shifts are not as powerful as those of full Mental-shift types.

Blue house students may go outside, but must wear clothing that covers any Physical-shift traits. Those with completely unnatural skin and eye colours cannot visit the outside world at all.

Students in Blue house tend to have a good reputation within the school for being team players, as all of the other houses can identify with them.

About the houses

The academy has 4 classes/houses.

Each house has 5 leaders. The leaders are invited to the group by me, the administrator (I'm also a leader of one of the groups.) Each leader can invite 2 more people to their house, which brings the total amount of members to 60.


Roles for each house
The original 20 leaders in the group choose their position from 5 possible positions. This is first-come first serve. Positions are outlined below:

Class President: (PLEASE NOTE: this is an actual leadership job within the group.) The class president manages the other members of his or her class. They tend to have good social skills and a larger amount of mental/physical power or intelligence than their classmates.

Vice President : (PLEASE NOTE: this is also an actual leadership job within the group. :/) The vice president assists the class president in managing his or her class. In the event that the class president leaves the class, the Vice present steps in.

Secretary: (PLEASE NOTE: This is not a leadership position unless the person taking up the job would like to help out with the group.) Er... do I really need to explain this? ;^;

Teachers: (PLEASE NOTE: This is not a leadership position unless the person taking up the job would like to help out with the group.) Teachers are generally of the same shift-type as the class they are teaching. There are 2 teacher positions per class.

In the event that one of the original 20 leaders (who are automatically assigned to a specific group, 5 per group) do not want any of the leadership positions, they can forfeit the right to one and become a normal member of the class. However, they still should invite 2 other members to the group, and we'll work out the roles then if there are any left over.
