Title: Staff Seeking
Alice Black - December 9, 2007 02:10 AM (GMT)
Hey guys! Well, guess what? Aura is seeking staff members! And this time, we're doing it from within. All of you can apply - but don't be too peeked about getting chosen. Those who I trust more; those who I have worked with more, and those who have been at Aura longest will get the upper-hand in staff selection. But, don't worry, everybody can apply. Just, as mentioned before, don't get your hopes up too high.
Anyways, we currently are in need of the following staff:
[2/2] Admins (1 Rebel Admin; 1 Royal Admin)
This means that you can apply for admin only if you have a royal or rebel character.
EDIT: Yay for Turner! He deserves to be an admin. =]
EDITEDIT: Yay for Ren! She deserves to be an admin. =]
[0/2] Mods
Now, all staff need to be fairly active. As sad as it seems, we've experienced inactivity with FIVE whole staff members. Five out nine, isn't that sad? =[ Also, I'd rather like if all staff members, no matter if mod or admin, are fairly good in the field of grammar and the proper use of it. Really, that's pretty self-explanatory. They have to be somewhat friendly; welcoming to the new members, and suggestive. We're always looking to make Aura better!
Anyways, if you've read through all of the above, feel free to apply. Here is the form; be sure to fill all of it out.

Age:16
Character(s):Asher Black and Piper Fuller
Mod or Admin?:I'd love to be an admin, but since I don't really think I would be a big help (I'm horrible at coding and graphics), it'd probably be better if I were a mod
Why do you want to become staff?:Because I love this site! And I want to help it run along.
Role-Play Sample:((I just had copied this from one of my other sites because it happened to be open in one of my tabs. If you want one from here, I can get that too.))
It was sleeting again, Emaline realized as she heard some noise beside her head, something was hitting the window. She looked up from the book she had been reading and affirmed her observation upon seeing the mixture of snow and water streaming down the windowpane and then looked out at it, wistfully. Wet days let everyone mope around and be depressed without having a real excuse because one could just say that the weather depressed them. Emay, however, felt better when it rained. What could she say? She loved weather that most people hated. There’s nothing wrong with being different, Emay thought as she stared at the drops dancing upon the glass.
The girl was bundled up in a navy sweater and a pair of jeans, muggle clothes which she preferred to wizarding ones and a pair of lambskin boots. What could she say? She was a creature who preferred her comfort! Especially on such a chilly day. Sure, she liked the weather outside. But she didn't want to have to feel the weather or the chill that accompanied it. She loved being toasty warm. Who didn't? One of her favorite pastimes was soaking in a warm bath, although she hardly ever had the chance to do so at Hogwarts. Hogwarts for Emaline generally was work, watching over everyone who she loved, and occasionally taking a break to hang out with her friends. Emay Acker was by no means a workaholic. She just didn't feel like getting horrible grades in each of her subjects, subjects which she had studied so hard in order to pass the O.W.L.S so that she could take these classes this year. Some of them she probably should have dropped out of boredom, such as Divination, but whatever. It entertained her sometimes to see how idiotic and fake that class was.
Anyway… At the moment she wasn’t really doing any work. She was just sitting in the library, reading over some letters, which she had recently acquired from her anonymous source. It scared her how into the missives she had become. She looked forward to them daily and when the replies took a longer time than usual, Emaline tended to become a bit depressed. Emaline read the latest one and smiled softly. Perhaps she truly preferred the uncomplicated relationship between two people on paper rather than face-to-face. At least then one was able to cross out mistakes rather than have to go through those awkward moments when one person tried to make an excuse for a slip up. And even when she did say something inappropriate or idiotic, she didn’t have to see this person’s reaction and he seemed too kind to hurt her feelings intentionally. He was a bit blunt, yes, but altogether he was a kind person. And she loved kindness.
Kindness… One person who most definitely did not have this trait was the bane of her existence, Beowulf Malloren. He didn’t even know the meaning of kindness! He thought that everyone in the world was there to worship him and when someone refused to do as he wished, he refused to take a step back. Instead, he managed to irritate them even more than he had before! Why in the world was she thinking of him when she had her Unknown on her mind? To try and rid her mind of unpleasant thoughts concerning a certain seventh year Gryffindor, Emaline took out a quill and a piece of parchment and started to write a missive in response to the one she had received several hours before.
She was thoroughly absorbed in her writing and it seemed as if nothing in the world could distract her. And then there was a bang and she glanced up, wondering what in the world was going on in the almost eternally quiet library.

Mod or Admin?: I'm really not fussed at all. A mod is fine with me.
Why do you want to become staff?: I like the community here. The members are nice, and the staff have helped me a lot so far by making me feel welcome, and I think I can do just the same. I'm responsible and I know everything you need to know about the Admin CP, and I'm active everyday for several hours. I'd really like to help Aura reach its full potential. =]
Role-Play Sample:

Jaida had to take a moment to compose herself. They were so close that she felt a little self-conscious. She did not want to feel self-conscious. For the first time since the Tragedy, she felt like herself, like she wasn't alone, like something amazing had come out of the disaster after all. Looking into Keaton's beautiful blue eyes, she saw reflected in them something she had been searching for for three years, something she had had no idea she was missing until the very moment she laid eyes on him.
She swallowed, her mouth dry. Her heart skipped several beats as he promised her he would never let her go. She wanted to burst into tears; the emotions were so overwhelming that she did not think she could hold them in any longer. Her breath came out in shallow puffs as she tried to steady it. What was happening to her? She would have thought she'd have a million things to say if she ever found the guy who had saved her, but right now she was struggling to even breathe.
'Keaton,' she breathed. She was surprised at how easily his name rolled off her tongue, how much of an impact the single word had on her entire being. She took a deep breath, a small smile tugging at the corners of her lips. 'Keaton...' she wanted to say something, but all of a sudden she could not remember what. Gazing up into his eyes had caused her to lose track of her thoughts.
She bit her lower lip as a new emotion swelled over her. She couldn't tell just what it was, but as she drew closer to him, she felt a sudden desire to have his lips pressed against hers. She bit back the urge to kiss him, not wanting to startle him or allow him to think she was one to rush into things. The truth was, she had never felt this way about a guy before. She had never had intense urges to kiss anyone. So why this stranger.
But was he really a stranger, she had to ask herself. |

.one in a Million and
27LIES&6millionSECRETS
Role-Play Sample:[from site .one in a million charcter: Ashlynn Davies(I love the name Ashlynn)]
Ash couldn't believe that they had to strip again she had already done it once. No, correction the circus dude had done it. But, Ashlynn didn't care much for details in these types of situations. She strip down to show that she had nothing on her. She hadn't taken her cell phone with her like a smart person. After she was checked she put he clothes back on and watched as the girls spun on the wheel. Ugh, stupid people bothered her.
Ashlynn could not believe how boring these girls were. All the talked about was shit. All they did was shit. They were all shitty fucktards. But, the biggest one of them all was Adrienne. Sure, Charlie had done some dumb things too and Briana was a total lesbian hoe but, still. Adrienne was just stupid. And, Ashlynn didn't like stupid people. The girl continuously stood up to Selene who was obviously a complete psycho and thought that it was cute or something, News flash it wasn't Newton!
First the girl used to just be a minor annoyance now she was just another douche bag to add to Ash's list. Her tree fucking attitude had already gotten on her nerves. But, now she thought that she was awesome or something. Okay, whatever. Normally Ash would just laugh at those girls but, she had been living with Adrienne for months now and it was really starting to bug her.
She wanted to kill the bitch or something. Just anything to get her to shut up. Ash had been thinking about this the whole time that she had forgot all about Adrianna task and was just glaring at Adri. But, obviously she had done a good job since their were cheers coming from the audience watching. But, whatever back to her plan about killing Adrienne. Was there anything laying around to hit her with.
YES! Luck was finally on her side there laying next to the pool was some metal stick. Ash didn't really care about the 'consequences' she just wanted to hurt Adri. She picked it up and took at swing at her leg. When the metal made contact it sent a vibration up her arm and she heard a satisfying crunch. It may not have broken but, Ash would make sure that it did break. She hit it several more times "When I become an elite and trust me I will when its my turn to pick the juniors you will have no say got it BITCH!" While she was doing this she was thinking in her head DIE BITCH DIE!
Wow, maybe she had become a psycho like Selene and Adeline. But, then again this wasn't anything new, she'd broken a girls leg before. She heard people gasping and she didn't really care Adrienne had had fights with a lot of her friends and hearing the stories made her hate this girl even more. She put all of her rage into each blow. "Oh, I almost forgot about the rest of the hazing." she said dropping the stick into the water and walking away cheerfully.
It was Brianna's turn now and Ash couldn't wait to see what she was going to do. Probably do something stupid like Adri and Charlie. She had probably lost a few IQ points just looking at the girl. Too bad she had dropped her stick in the pool infested with sharks she wanted to bash this girls head in too. She was on a roll. But, like before she wasn't about to risk her precious life or limb. Hey, it was only important if it belonged to her.
Edit:added another site I was a mod on.

The teacher’s bathroom on the third floor.
Sure she shouldn’t be in here. But like most students at this school, Fallon always thought the rules were meant to be broken. This one bathroom was the biggest and cleanest bathroom on campus. And once you got past the fact that your teachers actually bathe in here, you could relax.
The soothing burn of water against her skin had always been a welcome feeling, if not relaxing. It had never been hard to sneak in, listening in anonymously as teachers slipped in and out of this room; it was not difficult at all to get past the monitors... As the long-gone ordeals of sneaking around were washed away into the warm swirling water and mounds of bubbles, the lightly flushed skin slumped happily in the over-sized tub, submerging her self to the top of her chin. It seemed like years had passed her by as she soaked, wanting to suck up all the warm air and keep it locked up in her lungs.
Fallon looked around the pale room; for some place so big… it was sooo boring. Her blue orbs found the only picture in the room and stayed there for at least half a minute. Then as if a bell had gone of in her head, she got and idea. Fallon stared at the picture a second longer, then, the woman moved; ever so slightly, but Fallon could see it, for she had created it. ”Hello…” Fallon cooed, watching the picture.
The woman jumped and tried to run away, only to be stopped by her frame, ”What’s going on here?” she demanded, her hand on her hips.
Fallon shrugged, blowing a pile of bubbles into the air ”I was bored…”
The woman stared at Fallon, Fallon stared back, and then the woman started. She was on a rant about not understanding and something about this going against all the laws of human kind. Or something like that. Fallon slummed further into the tub and drifted off to sleep. The motionless state attained for about a full hour. Someone would have almost called to believe the sleeping girl was actually...well...dead. With a final slink of Fallon's head she slipped beneath the surface, moments passing before a graceful rush of water accompanied air in her lungs. Piercing blue eyes shot open and scanned the room in a frantic pace, as though she had no clue where she was, which was the case for a brief moment. A deep sigh left her chest, Suppose I should get out... Was the only thought that took a form of action as she waded to the tub's edge. Plucking the fluffy white object from its stand, she quickly rapped it around her. Her body turned to where she had previously left her clothes. It became quite clear there was something out of place, something down right missing! As odd as it was, her clothes had seemed to become invisible... or had she been walking around the school naked all day. At least it was quite the possibility until she saw the traces of water giving the patern of... footprints.
"Shit."
It was blunt, it was angry, it was practically hissed as she came to the fact that some overly clean janitor had popped in while she was bathing, which left her very naked...and feeling rather exposed. Fallon groaned as she quickly tightened the damp towel around her, having forgotten to dry herself off, which had led to her ungracefully slipping as she tried to dart for the door. Her eyes darted in every direction before she padded off, only concentrating on returning to her dorm. She wanted new clothes! Agitation seemed to rule her. She took to the stairs, gripping the tightly wrapped towel as she ascended as silently as he could. God, this is not what I planned when I snuck out of the dorm.

Why do you want to become staff?: well since you need the extra help, I thought I'd apply. I'm very good with the mod controls, mostly because I have my own site, so you need to learn the controls so it doesn't crash.

It wasn't hard to tell that Jamey wasn't in a very good mood. He had been lying in his bed staring at floor for the past hour, looking up at his dorm every few seconds makings sure that no one walked in. Human contact was something eh didn't feel like making at the moment. He was lying on his stomach at the end of his bed, his chin lying on the inset of one of his textbooks. His eyes were giving off one of "talk and die" looks that would likely ward off any unwanted guests.
Homework had never really made Jamey feel bad in any way, but today was different. He was supposed to writing 3 pages on the uses of sunspoor in Potions, but he wasn't. Why? Because he was in the middle of a fight with one of his best friends. They were arguing over whether use of the Unforgivables was relevant in a life threatening situation. Jamey said no, they were never relevant. His friend on the other hand believed that if the situation was dangerous enough, use of them was acceptable. This argument boiled out after class and it ended Patrick getting offended. Jamey had been trying to think of what he had said that offended his friend so much, but it just wouldn't come to him.
Before coming into the dorm room, Jamey had managed to put a sign on the door:
Warning:
Irritated teenager inside
Yes, it was slightly childish to put up signs, but he he wasn't the mood for people to come bounding in and asking stupid questions at the moment. Pulling a wand on someone was something that Jamey was not above doing, even though he knew he would never really curse someone just because ignored his stupid sign. He also knew that when someone asked if he was okay, they were just trying to help, but Jamey was stubborn, so it would probably take him pulling a wand on the wrong person and getting hexed for him to openly admit these things. |
