What are your current roles on the server? (If you're college, specify your degree level):
I have one Doctor role that I have gotten at the beginning of March 2026; all the rest are grade 12.
Describe your activity and roleplay experience on the server:
So I began playing around July 2022. I was very active up till the start of 2023 when my activity began to decrease because I had to focus on university. But I've finally graduated and landed a job this year that I can do mostly at home, giving me more free time and a consistent schedule for playing on the server. I'm consistently on from 9 pm - 12 am every day. On weekends, I can log on earlier as long as I’m not running errands or visiting my family.
I’ve been RPing on the internet for a decade at this point, so I'd say I have plenty of experience. I’ve also written fan fiction and original short stories with original characters.
Doing schoolRP is where I’ve spent most my time on the server. I’m the type of person who likes to approach people randomly and strike up a convo with them. Even if I got my own friend circle, why not keep making more friends? It’s SRP after all! That’s what the community did when I was new, and I intend to keep doing that for all the people I see on the server, both veterans and newcomers.
Even if most my time is spent dabbling in SchoolRP, I have tried GangRP early on in my time on the server but it turns out I was too much of a do-gooder to last long (un)fortunately. But this year, I'm currently part of Pink Panther, a delinquent gang more focused on P2L actions (which I much more prefer than rolling). Aside from that, I also joined the HS Swim team for a few months back in late 2022. It taught me the ropes of detailRP as it was required to do swim actions.
Recently I got the Doctor role and am currently training for it, but if I do get accepted into this faction, I will be more than willing to learn the ropes of being a proper faculty member, juggling between faculty for school hours and EMS for after school. Experience is how I learn how the different roles in the server, after all, and I'm all for it!
In your own words, why do you think professors are important to SchoolRP?
Somebody has to hammer in the minds of students the virtue of wasting your life away in a dead-end white-collar job where the only physical activity is getting up to get coffee, right?
Okay, all jokes aside, professors represent, well, being professional: knowledgeable, wise, and more than willing to share their skills. College is where our recent high school graduates learn the ins-and-outs of being the strong, independent adult they will soon become. After all, these children come out of high school knowing things, but not what they are for: a blank block of wood to be sculpted by a professor. They also serve as the role models in the classroom as teachers are to high schoolers. No professor would act like a baboon and still be a professor!
Well in more SRP terms, professors are there to do that, but they’re also there to maintain discipline in both the classroom and school grounds. They have to do this while still being approachable enough to help students. Also, they exist to grant students the means of progression within the server to get to masters, PhD, and eventually into adults, and they do this by designing class activities to keep them active and engaged… like what my character will be doing!

Describe the character: How do they look and act? What makes them unique and different?
Suzune is a 157 cm tall (5’2) woman who leaves a positive vibe everywhere she goes. Her white sneakers leave behind a trail of vibrant pink, her signature color. Her bright pink hair takes the form of a wavy bob with loose, wispy strands dancing over eyes that glow lime green. She dons a hairpin featuring cyan and white quavers. She is wrapped in a wave-patterned orange shirt declaring "NO MUSIC, NO LIFE" complete with a pair of black shorts. For her faculty outfit, she replaces the shirt with a pink blazer and shorts with a brown plaid skirt.
From her clothes to her personality and even her hobbies, it’s impossible not to notice when Suzune’s around. Such strong light needs its release! She can yap and yap for hours talking about numbers, music, or whatever else she vibes with at the moment. It’s not for everyone, of course; one person’s sun tan is another’s skin cancer (sorry bad joke) but for those basking in her glow and her very pink hair, she’s nicknamed “Glowstick”.
Growing up in Harajuku, Tokyo, lil’ Suzune often helped out her mom in managing their clothing store. With the frequent flux of international tourists, Suzune had to learn English to communicate with those customers more easily. Her older brother is a musician prowling the streets of Tokyo. It was he who instilled the love of music into Suzune’s youthful heart and taught her the way of playing keyboard.
What are their plans for the future? Optionally, what is their past?
Suzune graduated with a degree in Mathematics at Osaka University, and took her graduate program in Applied Mathematics at Tokyo’s Waseda University. To fund her studies, Suzune worked as an assistant professor teaching pre-calc and basic calculus to freshmen. Getting her Master’s degree at 24 years old, Suzune entered the private sector as a data ****yst, eventually moving to Karakura island to join one of the company’s branches there. A few months ago, said branch collapsed, leaving Suzune unemployed.
After that, Suzune put her newly-acquired eight hours of do-nothing time to use, walking along the coast in deep introspection, catching up with her friends, and deliberating on all her life’s mistakes. After a certain conversation shown later, Suzune, after a few more introspection sessions, made up her mind; she’s coming back to teaching, and she’s going to make it her lifelong passion. Her prior experience as an assistant taught her one thing: math is an art, one that students simply need to learn how to appreciate, to partake in. It takes a certain kind of person, perhaps not an entirely sane one, to pursue math for as long as she did, but she won’t let that stop her.
Professional plans aside, Suzune is rather content with what she has. She has the choice to marry a man that can handle her energy, or let that light fade out alone in the far future. But she has a simple dream she longed to achieve in her lifetime, one that started when she was just a little girl: start her own cafe. Her very own creative space where she can serve customers her version of strawberry shortcake that her mom would bake for her. Her favorite treat she would ask for when she returned home with good grades or when it was her birthday or Christmas.
Suzune would have loved to have her mom be her first customer when she eventually achieves that dream. Alas, she’ll have to wait till they inevitably meet in the afterlife.
What is their outlook on students and their co-workers?
Suzune believes that college-aged students should be capable of independence and proper time management. She shows leeway to students who lack such things, but will not hesitate to put her foot down; after all, they aren’t high schoolers anymore, are they? But she would never abandon stragglers and slow learners. Suzune thinks everyone has potential, from the greatest to the least; it is her duty to these young adults to coax it out. As long as they did their best, she is content.
Suzune is more than willing to mingle with anyone and everyone while still maintaining a separation between work and personal life. She’s highly focused when at work teaching and grading but she lets her hair down just as easily once she’s done. Normal conversations has her words flow as freely and quickly as the Niagara Falls passing through a drinking straw.
What is their motivation for becoming a professor?
Suzune made quick friends with the denizens of Karakura island. She grew especially close to the Murasaki family, forming a bond so strong she may as well be another member. A month into unemployment, Suzune found herself in a long chat with Tohoku-born Nanoha (forgive her accent), where they eventually touched on the topic of Suzune’s future.
“Y’know, Suzu,” Nanoha said, “I jus’ don’t get it.”
“Get what?” Suzune replied.
“Why you’re wastin’ yer potential doin’ some stupid ****ysis work fer a company that left you mopin’ around in the gutter.”
“I’m not moping. I’m meditating! Introspecting!”
“Meditatin’, introspectin’, who cares? All I know is, you went and got yerself a degree from a good university, got a graduate degree from another good university, then wasted it on some white collar job, doin’ work you don’t care about, helpin’ a company who doesn’t care about you!”
Suzune sighed. Nanoha sure doesn’t beat around the bush.
“Look, you enjoyed teachin’, right?” Nanoha said, her expression mild and understanding. “I know you were havin’ lots of fun back when you were an assistant prof.”
“Yeah, true. Those kids were a joy to work with.” Suzune loved reminiscing about that time.
“Then why don’t you go back to that? Go teach some kids how to enjoy math like you do. Stop puttin’ your mind to work on things that don’t matter.”
Nanoha had a point, and its sharp tip pierced Suzune’s heart. She only took that job because of its higher pay, and now that it’s gone, what’s the point? She was grateful to the company leading her to Karakura island, but things have changed. It was time for a new chapter in life; it was time to follow her heart.
That heart found itself in the form of Suzune's very positive experience being an assistant professor. She loved teaching math. She loved showing how the tangled mass of a hieroglyphic mess of a formula could be stripped bare and revealed to the world with a simplified view. The numbers weren't cold but they spoke of the world. Most of all, she loved her students. Quiet students. Brash students. Students who choked down bile the second a letter shows up in their math exam. Most students come into her class with fear, and it was Suzune’s job to turn their fear into love, a love of the art of numbers. For every anxious glance a newcomer threw her way, was a confident smile from a graduate leaving her class. The students loved her as she did them, and Suzune shared their pride when they graduated with top grades or even just graduated at all, as long as they did their best.
Really, why did she even leave this life?
Luckily for Suzune, the school seemed to have openings for a new math professor..
A jock is ignoring your lesson and throwing paper balls at another student, what would your character do?
Such immature behavior. Suzune sighed to herself. She hoped that college students would be past this, but evidently not. Suzune glances at the victim. They don’t seem all that into it. A little friendly horsing around during class was tolerable (I mean God knows how insufferable she was as a student with her stupid pranks) but this crossed a line. She puts down her pen.
“Hey.” Suzune flashes the jock a smile. It wouldn’t do to be too hostile from the off. “Mx. Jock, are you listening?”
“Of course, ma’am.” The jock smiles back.
“Good.” She turns back to the board.
Not even a minute later, the corner of her eye catches the sight of another crumpled ball. It’s action time.
“Mx. Jock.” She turns back to the class, a faint smile still on her face. “Can you tell me what it is you’re doing?”
“Just listening, ma’am.”
“Really? You mean to say that crumpled-up ball flew by itself?”
“We’re just friends, ma’am, friends!” said the Jock, laughing a little too loud. “Why’re you even sticking your nose in our business, huh? You a high school teacher or somethin’?”
“Look, setting aside-”
“-we pay you to teach, so teach! Stop yappin’ about pointless shit and go back to your numbers.”
“I’m just saying that-”
“Shut. Up. And. Teach!”
Suzune felt the pangs of frustration welling up inside her. The jock’s baiting her. The wrong choice of words and it’s a trip to the principal for her... she would really, really prefer not to lose this job. Suzune took a deep breath. She saw another student ready to rebuke the jock, but she held up a hand to wav them off. She knew what she had to do. Suzune walked toward the door as the silence in the room began to grow heavy, opening the door pointing to the hallway before looking back at the Jock.
“Out.”
“Huh? But I didn’t-”
“I don’t want to hear it. I treat you like an adult, and I expect you to act like one. If you want to act like a child, the classroom is not the place for you to do it. Come back when you’re ready to learn. Understand?” The glowstick had lost its warm glow, replaced by a blank, terrifying expression.
The jock, unnerved by the sudden shift in atmosphere with all eyes pointed at him, grabbed his bag and slunk out. Suzune closed the door gently. She turned back to the class, a smile instantly returning to her face as if nothing had happened.
“Now! Where were we? Ah, right, we were just about to solve this equation!”
A student doesn’t seem to understand the material, yet hasn’t requested help, what would your character do?
Suzune is very observant, like an owl. You know that feeling where your pen’s just hovering uncertainly over your paper, your sweat starting to trickle, your brows starting to furrow… suddenly, your eyes dart to the board as if realizing something but no, it fades and you’re back to square one? Yeah, she knows that very well. In fact, it’s a look she wore often enough even when she was a wee student herself. But she wouldn’t call them out publicly. Mortification is rarely a good teacher.
Suzune lets the class work on an exercise she had written on the board. As she patrols the desks she’d approach the struggling student, perhaps humming a tune to make her approach less predatory.
“Hey there,” she’d whisper, crouching down to eye-level with a chuckle. “You’ve been staring at that problem for a good five minutes. Give it a break, he’s starting to get shy. Walk me through your thought process. Where did the numbers and the letters stop making sense?” Like any language, Suzune just needs to find the right way to translate Math to a way they understand.
Aside from in-class discussions, she’s also open to some tutoring outside class sessions! She’d invite them to her office as long as her schedule’s free, letting the students tackle the lesson together with her or if she has no time, assign a tutor to them. She also gives Strawberry Pocky after!
When in the faculty lounge, how does your character act?
If Suzune in a good mood, she’s gonna be the lounge’s podcast. She’ll make coffee (with lots of condensed milk), bounce between desks, and chat up anyone unfortunate enough to make eye contact. She’ll especially pester physics teachers about why they are totally fine with rounding pi to 4 (why is that a thing?). But what if she’s grading papers or planning her next lecture? Silence. Absolute laser focus. She’ll sit in her cubicle with her headphones blasting her favorite Blockify playlist as her red pen flies across the papers. In this state, you may as well treat her like a furniture piece that screams “DO NOT DISTURB”, only coming to life to reach blindly for her overly sweet coffee. Sometimes she’ll dip Strawberry Pocky inside. Ugh, why?
Provide at least 2 interactive class ideas and one field trip idea related to your subject
Interactive Class Idea 1
Geometry! ...is usually where fun goes to die for most people. I mean, what will a student aspiring to be a chef or businessman do with sines and cosines? Suzune knows that feeling but she’ll do her best to make learning it fun anyway! Instead of drawings on the board, she turns the lesson into a more interactive one, like a real life search for angles!
First, she hands out to each group a kit containing protractors, rulers, a pentel pen, and paper. The goal is to find the angles hiding in objects in the real world and recreate the object with their materials. She guides the students out to the middle and lets them go search for an object of choice. Groups may measure the acute angles of a stair railing, the obtuse angle of an arch, the right angle of a window frame, and so on. They have to physically measure the vertices with the protractor, replicate the angle using their pen and papers, and finally draw and finish the full object. All angles must have measures and labeled accordingly according to type. Through this, students learn to perceive the world not as a random mess but a wireframe of math, and it helps them ponder and think about why certain angle are the way they are (you would NOT want to make a computer screen composed of acute angles, wouldn't you?).
Of course Suzune would walk around checking if the students are actually performing the work or if they are just eyeballing it. She does not tolerate laziness.
Interactive Class Idea 2
Probability class! This is where students learn why the house always wins or why it sometimes loses disastrously (mostly the former, please don’t gamble your life away).
Suzune asks students to form groups of up to four and hands out kits with tools of probability: coins, dice, decks of cards, etc. The goal is to invent a short game with a clear win condition and calculate the theoretical probability of victory. Once the math’s done, it's playtime! The class rotates, playing each group's game to gather data. They then compare their theoretical math against the experimental results they gathered. They will inevitably find that the real-world probabilities don't match, and after that they are taught about how sample sizes can only be so aligned to theory. It teaches the students that theory will always differ from cold, hard data. You either win big or lose terribly.
Field Trip Idea
Field trip time! Suzune leads her class on a walking tour through Karakura. Like the angles interactive class, her goal is to show her students how math isn't locked away in textbooks or online tutorial videos but practically screaming at you from every building, bridge, and storefront.
The students are asked to bring sketchbooks, and they are instructed to make good use of it: they sketch the angles they observe in architecture, proportions in doorway height, even patterns they may find in objects of nature such as flowers (like the golden ratio!). Then they note down the possible math concepts they discover alongside their sketches. Sometimes, Suzune might pause in front of an object and ask the whole class a question. "So can anyone tell me why people build spiral staircases? That’s right, they’re minimizing floor area use!" For a more technical exercise, she'll have them estimate the height of the lighthouse using basic trigonometry. One student stands a distance away from the building, acting as the vertex of the right triangle and another will measure the angle from a distance and run some math, thus determining the building’s height! Alongside their exercises, Suzune will also tell stories about how all these engineers and architects actually use these concepts, demonstrating the hows and whys of why objects are built that way, alongside consequences of using the wrong proportions or measurements among other things. After the field trip is done, the students will then return to class with their sketchbook and present their insights on how math literally shapes the world around them.
Numbers aren't just some boring obstacle they have to deal with in school, they're the reason why we, everyone, everything, in the universe are shaped that way. This is the message Suzune wants to spread, and is the reason why she became a professor.
