Describe your activity on SchoolRP: I spent a considerable amount of time actively participating in the School Roleplay community, devoting myself fully to the diverse roles and interactions that the server provided. My favorite roles were English Teacher and Librarian, where I worked with other players to create memorable experiences and compelling tales. Although I took a hiatus to concentrate on my college coursework, I have always enjoyed my time on SchoolRP and am eager to return to the community.

Describe your roleplay experience with SchoolRP and other roleplay networks in general: As stated before, I have been playing SchoolRP for a while, specifically on and off ever since the old yandere map. With that being said, I've been roleplaying a lot, with different roles as stated earlier. I aim to increase my roleplaying experience with the new role I'm applying for.

What are your current roles on SchoolRP: Just the adult role.

What is the subject you want to teach?: Ethics

TRIVIA SECTION

What is your motivation for becoming a professor?:
My desire to become a professor on SchoolRP stems from my prior experience instructing high school students in the roleplay community. If given the opportunity to return as a professor, I would share my passion for teaching and commitment to student achievement with the community. I am eager to apply the insights and skills I've gained from my previous teaching experiences to create engaging lessons that enhance students' experiences on the server. My goal is to inspire and empower each student to thrive in their roleplaying journey.

Work out two interactive classes you will host if accepted:

1.
In the first ethics class, I would introduce the Trolley Problem, an ethical dilemma where students must decide whether to sacrifice one person to save five. The class would be divided into two groups—one defending utilitarianism (maximizing happiness) and the other defending deontology (following moral rules). After debating their positions, students would reflect on their personal choices and reasoning, fostering critical thinking about ethical decision-making.

2. In the second ethics class, I would explore the ethics of social media, focusing on privacy, misinformation, and mental health. Students would form groups representing stakeholders (social media companies, governments, users, and content creators) to discuss the ethical management of platforms. We'd simulate a social media board meeting where groups debate issues like free speech versus harmful content and the responsibility of platforms for user well-being. The class would conclude with brainstorming potential regulations and fostering critical thinking about ethical responsibilities in communication.



Work out a field trip (meaning a class outside school grounds) you will host if accepted: I would organize a field trip to a local courthouse, where students could observe court proceedings and learn about the role of ethics in the legal system. This experience would help students understand how laws are created and enforced while considering the ethical dilemmas faced by legal professionals. I would lead a discussion for students to ask questions and reflect on the ethical principles observed. To conclude, they would write a short essay summarizing their observations and discussing the ethical implications, connecting classroom discussions to real-world legal practices.

SCENARIO SECTION

Your character would encounter a group of college jocks surrounding a bobcat jock, what would your character do?

Sade would approach the situation with a calm but authoritative presence. She’d first assess the dynamics of the group, ensuring no one is in immediate danger, before stepping in and addressing the students directly. With her stern, no-nonsense tone, she'd say something like, “Is this how we handle ourselves in public?” to diffuse the situation and command respect. Her goal would be to break up the group calmly, making sure everyone walks away without escalating the matter further. If needed, she’d call for backup or escort the bobcat jock to a safer space, ensuring that all students understand the importance of mutual respect and the consequences of harassment or intimidation.
interactions among the students.

Your character would be supervising detention, one of the students constantly disturbs by asking stupid questions, what would your character do?
Sade, being naturally stern, would address the situation directly but without losing her composure. She’d calmly tell the student that detention is not the place for distractions or games, stating something like, “If you have real questions, I’m happy to answer them. If not, I suggest you use this time wisely.” Her tone would be firm, leaving little room for further disruptions, and she’d make it clear that continued interruptions could result in additional consequences. If the behavior persists, she might offer a consequence like extra detention or a task to refocus the student’s energy productively.


Your character would be hosting a class, and a group of cheerleaders keeps on playing songs on the phone and calling out other students in the class, what would your character do? Sade would immediately halt her lecture, her stern expression signaling her displeasure. She’d address the cheerleaders calmly but firmly, saying something along the lines of, "This classroom isn’t a place for distractions. If you want to play music, do it on your own time. Right now, I expect your full attention."She’d give them a chance to correct their behavior but make it clear that any further disruptions would result in them being removed from the class or other disciplinary measures. Sade values respect in her classroom and wouldn’t tolerate ongoing interruptions.

Your character would be walking on the school perimeter and encounter a fight between a couple of students, your character tried to break it up but it didn't help, what would your character do? Sade would immediately step back and assess the situation, recognizing that her initial intervention wasn’t enough. She’d raise her voice in a commanding, authoritative tone, calling for the students to stop. If they continued fighting, she’d seek help from campus security or another staff member to safely de-escalate the situation.

CHARACTER KNOWLEDGE

Tell us everything you know about the character you will be playing in a few paragraphs. What does they look like? What makes them unique and different? What is their outlook on Students? What about the other teachers? What is their personality like? What is their plan for the future?

Sade Kamiyama is a young woman at the age of 29, holding a dignified posture and tall stature that naturally draws attention. Sade’s appearance alone is a bold statement: possessing a green afro with deep brown skin and sharp yet warm eyes, showcasing her confidence and individuality. In both her personal and professional life, she openly embraces her mixed Japanese and West African heritage. She has a complex personality; she can be quite strict and authoritative, especially when there is chaos or when someone is disobeying the rules, but she is also very considerate. She stimulates intellectual curiosity and takes pleasure in engaging in meaningful conversations. Because of her training in literature and ethics, she is a thoughtful person who is always looking for ways to better herself and her students.
Sade's outlook on students is both caring and strict. As an ethics professor, she takes her responsibility to guide her students seriously, emphasizing discipline and critical thinking. She believes in pushing her students to be their best, as she holds them to high standards. On the other hand, she also understands the value of nurturing their growth through understanding and empathy. Coming from a West African background, she can be stern when it comes to enforcing rules, yet she balances this with encouragement, believing that structure is necessary for young people to thrive. She’s always ready to offer support and guidance when needed. She sees herself as not only a teacher but a mentor, someone who can shape her students’ character as much as their academic abilities. Sade is known for her no-nonsense attitude in the classroom, but those who get to know her understand that everything she does is for their benefit.

Regarding her colleagues, Sade has a mixed approach. She greatly respects teachers who are passionate about their subjects and invested in their students’ success. She values collaboration and learning from others, especially those who share her commitment to education. However, she doesn’t shy away from voicing her disappointment if she feels that a fellow teacher isn’t meeting the standard of care she believes students deserve. She’s respectful, but she’s not afraid to stand her ground or challenge the status quo if it means better outcomes for her students.

As for her future plans, Sade envisions continuing to grow in her role as an educator while also giving back to the community. She may even begin to write a book on ethics in hopes of combining her academic knowledge with her own experiences to write a book about ethics in modern culture. She aims to develop a resource that examines the moral dilemmas that arise in modern-day life for educators and students.

Describe how your character ended up becoming a teacher and their previous life. It is optional to include earlier life but recommended.
Make sure this is over 100 words.

From a love of two distinct yet deeply enriching cultures, Sade Kamiyama was born in Lagos, West Africa. She was born to a Japanese woman named Keiko Kamiyama and a West African man named Olumide. Sade’s earliest memories are filled with her father’s rhythmic storytelling in Yoruba, laced with proverbs and folk tales, and her mother’s gentle reminders of Japanese customs—from tea ceremonies to bowing in respect. At a young age, Sade experienced a harmonious blend of both worlds. She was exposed to Yoruba and Japanese simultaneously, which ignited a curiosity for language. Lagos, with its colorful streets, lively markets, and vibrant culture, gave her a sense of community, while the occasional trips to Tokyo introduced her to Japan’s order and tranquility. The family carefully balanced both cultures, celebrating *****ian festivals and Japanese holidays.
When Sade was six, her family relocated to Tokyo, Japan, as her mother took up a teaching position at a prominent university. For Sade, moving to Japan was a mix of excitement and confusion. The bustling streets of Tokyo were vastly different from Lagos, and though she had visited before, the transition to living there permanently came with cultural and linguistic challenges. As one of the few biracial children in her class, she stood out—her curly afro was a stark contrast to the straight hair of her classmates. She sometimes felt like an outsider, but her mother made sure that Sade embraced her uniqueness.

Her father kept Yoruba alive at home, sharing stories and encouraging Sade to speak the language. Meanwhile, she attended local schools where she was immersed in Japanese culture, from learning the language to adapting to the discipline of the Japanese education system. Though she had moments of doubt about fitting in, Sade grew into her mixed identity, proudly embodying both *****ian and Japanese values. At age 10, Sade’s father enrolled her in a Yoruba language class at a local cultural center. This formalized her interest in the language, giving her the tools to explore her *****ian heritage even more. She found herself passionate about both the cultural significance of Yoruba and the ethical questions that arose from blending her two worlds.

Sade’s identity as a multicultural child of both West Africa and Japan became a key part of her self-awareness at the age of 13. Her parents sent her to *****ia during the summer holidays, allowing her to reconnect with her Yoruba roots more profoundly. In Lagos, Sade learned traditional dances, participated in family gatherings, and practiced Yoruba with relatives. Her grandmother became a major influence, teaching her values of honor, community, and respect—pillars of Yoruba society.

Back in Japan, Sade became a studious and introspective teenager. She dove deep into philosophy and ethics, fascinated by how different cultures tackled questions of morality. By the time she turned 17, she was already certain that she wanted to study ethics and focus on how cultural perspectives shaped people’s sense of right and wrong.

Sade’s multicultural background gave her a unique perspective, making her passionate about exploring cross-cultural ethics. She excelled academically, impressing her teachers with her ability to weave together Yoruba and Japanese ethical traditions in her essays and debates.

At age 19, Sade enrolled in a prominent university in West Africa to study philosophy with a focus on ethics. Her time at university became a period of deep intellectual growth. She developed a nuanced understanding of how culture impacts morality, using her Yoruba and Japanese heritage as the foundation of her studies. Sade frequently participated in heated debates, applying her lived experience to dissect moral dilemmas in a global context.

Her university years also exposed her to the philosophical intersections between African and Eastern traditions, and she worked to develop her ethical framework that combined Yoruba values of community with Japanese notions of discipline and honor. By the age of 21, Sade had become a leader in discussions on multicultural ethics at her university, known for her fiery, passionate arguments.

After completing her degree, Sade decided to continue her studies with a Master’s in Moral Philosophy while also starting to teach part-time at a university in Lagos. At 23, she was already making waves with her interactive and thought-provoking teaching style, challenging students to think deeply about ethics in a globalized world. Her classes were a blend of rigorous debate and cultural ****ysis, forcing students to examine their own moral beliefs through the lenses of different cultures.

By 25, Sade had earned her Master’s degree and transitioned into teaching full-time as an ethics professor. Her classroom was known for being strict yet deeply transformative. Her *****ian background influenced her no-nonsense approach, while her Japanese upbringing instilled a sense of order and discipline. She pushed her students to engage in difficult conversations and grapple with their ethical frameworks.

Unfortunately, Sade’s mother passed from a chronic illness in the year that she turned 29. To feel more connected to her mother, she moved back to Japan, however, this time to Karakura. Sade then proceeded to apply to the university there to bring forth her passion for the new city.
