ROLEPLAY EXPERIENCE
⊹₊˚‧︵‿₊୨ᰔ୧₊‿︵‧˚₊⊹
BEGININGS
Starting with the background of my overall roleplay experience, I felt that over the years I have accumulated quite a dose of quality insight that shapes who I am today related to roleplay. In second grade, with my friends at school, we would essentially play games such as mums and dads, assigning roles to each other with specific concepts.
This involved more typical family-based scenarios where there were simple actions of cooking or cleaning, going out to the park to play. Of course, as this was my first exposure to the idea of roleplay, acting, and improv, it was very minor and short, though I still consider it serves a larger purpose in my universal growth.

⊹₊˚‧︵‿₊୨ᰔ୧₊‿︵‧˚₊⊹
TRANSITION
As I grew older, my exposure to technology evolved, directing me toward an online form of roleplay. Discovered through Minecraft Pocket Edition, I was initially drawn to creative building a variety of different environments such as buildings, forests with caves, huts, secrets, and many more.
Driven by inspiration and assisted by friends' hobbies, the idea of roleplay made its way into our Minecraft worlds! Turning into writing each player's character names and ages on signs, possibly with a book &, quills attached, filled with lore and extra information. Leading us to act out short scenarios and establishing a lightly structured system, slowly introducing me more and more to the concept of roleplaying.

EXPANSION
Once I had a taste of what this type of roleplay could be like, I yearned for something larger and more immersive, involving roleplay with other people with the same passions! I began engaging in unofficial RP's on MCPE featured public servers. Two specifically, which I have the most vivid memories of, one included a minimal school map and the other simply a hub with a large map, which not uncommonly players used for roleplay.
Around this time, immersion appeared more frequently, learning to adjust my Minecraft skin to match scenarios such as swimming, cold or warm weather, and so on. However, these servers were not specifically designed for roleplay, as one was a hub and the other had different mini-game features related to schooling and was not tailored for roleplay scenarios.

INSPIRATION
Around this time is when I first discovered Scholar, though I did not have access to Minecraft Java Edition. Because of this barrier, I strove to find alternatives to SRP instead of Bedrock and eventually found a school-style roleplay server with a much larger player base than seen before! Here is where the main basis of roleplay came to light.
The character I chose portrayed a very energetic and social character, which caused there to be many insignificant forms of roleplay, involving meeting new people and having fun. I was commonly creating friend groups and exploring the community while collaborating with various personalities and players. Though not too serious, I still believe it helped me develop a larger skill set, incorporating improv and interacting with various unique people.

EVOLUTION
Over time, as that server slowly grew, so did my commitment to roleplay! During this period, creative literature had a significant impact on me. A close friend and I had composed a novel together, filled with various characters, including complex lore and deep personalities associated with each persona. This was when I truly felt the enjoyment of more mature roleplay, where my focus shifted away from messing around and more toward having scenarios stay more immersive and with meaning.
I essentially began contributing to DetailRP's in Discord servers and DMs, which let me bring to life the characters I created. Allowing myself to interact more toward an in-depth writing style RP, introducing myself to this further ideology, though at this time, Minecraft role plays had never left my side, still actively immersed in scenarios.

MILESTONE
Finally, as I ventured into owning Java Edition, I had attended SRP for the first time around December 2022. Initially, once I had achieved this exciting new opportunity, I had evolved to a whole new level of roleplay, where I could essentially have a proper extroverted character whilst also maintaining a stable balance of serious RP.
All the features of SRP had given me so much interest because of the immersive features not being as available in the Bedrock Edition of Minecraft servers, such as whispering or yelling. This was when I was introduced to so many new features and concepts, and as a greenie, slowly learning what SRP is truly all about!

⊹₊˚‧︵‿₊୨ᰔ୧₊‿︵‧˚₊⊹
DEVELOPMENT
Eventually, once I had played for a while, I started developing my characters beyond simple fun interactions, focusing on more long-term storytelling. At this time, I had met a quantity of friends and started a family dynamic, which introduced a lot of lore about my first character's family background.
Various types of DetailRP, such as romance, gang, sports, and cooking RP, were another milestone which had helped me improve my actions immensely, practising scenarios with consistency and even being trained on how to write actions for combat. Some of these included role plays that went for hours, with each person writing 3 appends of DetailRP for each action, leading to a brighter insight into this side of SRP.
As I immersed further into roleplay, I also cooperated in school tasks more seriously, which also helped me learn a lot about writing as well as how the school and faculty team worked, aiding in class activities and DetailRP such as cooking or drawing. I truly enjoyed the thrill of improvising more serious scenes based on what was happening around me, which helped improve my literature and overall English skills.

GROWTH
Whenever given the opportunity, I have always tried to help the community, whether it is contributing to bug reports, helping greenies out to learn commands and giving them items to start them off, answering questions asked in OOC when people need help, or even reporting people for inappropriate behaviour. Very early on, I tailored in SRP, which I believe starting out so soon had given me a lot of experience in authority, following guidelines, and also working with various people. Learning to handle conflicts and observing the faculty structure.
Overall, I truly think that over the years, I have accumulated a great deal of knowledge about roleplaying and all of its subtopics. The transition from simple childhood games to immersive role plays, as such, has brought me to a further stage of wanting to take on a more mature, responsible, and important role within the community.

In your own words, why do you think professors are important to SchoolRP?
My belief in the importance of professors continues to develop each day. I incorporate more ideals into why they are such an honourable role in SRP! When I first joined SRP, faculty members especially stood out to me as large role models within the community. I admired faculty members through plentiful methods in ICLY and OOC settings. Witnessing how they professionally handled situations in class involving possible ruckus, or even simply how they spoke and interacted with the surrounding students.
Even plain helping outside of class times, allowing students to print copies of books or showing a new player around the school when a receptionist is not around. Along with teaching students a little about their subject is inspiring how their passion for a subject can impact someone, letting them learn something new, OOCLY and ICLY. Professors take schoolwork with an interesting and more serious perspective, whilst allowing students to complete their goals and guide them on their pathway to developing into a higher degree level, or even all the way to an adult role.
Professors are an essential part of maintaining the flow of the schooling system, serving an even larger role now than ever before. After the graduation homework rework, every day, more players make their way into college, which immensely increases the demand and importance for professors.
Do you acknowledge that if you are inactive, you may face demotion or removal from the faction?
Yes, I acknowledge this and understand the consequences.
Do you understand if your application is accepted, you may have to undergo professor training?:
Yes, I acknowledge this and understand the requirements.

How do they look and act?
ENFJ-A
As your gaze settled on Sakura, you noticed a natural, quiet warmth deep within her. An inviting aura surrounded her 5'6" figure, followed by an easygoing courage, less filled with intimidation and more with reassurance. The way Sakura held herself had something authentic and sincere about her uplifting care for those around her, even if she barely knew them.
Her steps moved in productive, contrastingly graceful strides, seemingly fully at ease, with an optimistic, relaxed mind at every corner. Enhancing her persona further, a fragrant hint of vanilla seemed to accompany her, leaving a comforting impression in every room. In conversation, Sakura is commonly witnessed remaining composed and observant, listening with genuine focus and examining social and physical cues.
Though soft-spoken, her confidence is unmistakable, always offers guidance with steady encouragement and protection, on no occasion rushing or doing anything with force. Sakura was a carefully kept 27-year-old lady who looked younger than her age. Sakura was entirely comfortable with herself, maintaining a well-polished appearance.
Her figure was slim yet healthy, with brushed curves complementing her height. All of her features were nothing excessive, each harmonising with each-other in a balanced, attractive, and approachable manner. Her oval-shaped face confined large, slim brownish-blue eyes that often carried strokes of mascara with inconspicuous eyeliner. Paired with two straight eyebrows engaged in a fine arch, tapering thinner towards the ends. The centre of her face charmed a modest Greek-style nose and timidly upturned lips. Her bottom lip pouted marginally fuller than the top, whilst her jawline conveyed a tame definition, leading down to her subtly pointed chin.
As she gave a bright smile, the twinkle in her eyes was juxtaposed with her rosy-tinted cheeks and adorable dimples. Her long, blue hair was naturally silky straight, not uncommonly styled into careful waves resting upon her shoulder. A light fringe fell across her forehead, creating an intentional, somewhat messy sweetness framing her face. The scent of strawberry shampoo drifted from her hair as Sakura strutted, blending with her layers of vanilla perfume and honeysuckle body lotion, leaving her delicate, warm-toned skin with a faint glittery shimmer.
Her clothing style favours a formal and trendy style, influenced by her past role as a model. Frequently seen wearing skirts or dresses, without exception, coupled with heels, adding height to her frame. Her posture constantly stayed upright, though collected, never stiff or slouched, and her movements were nimble and filled with purpose. Her overall signature was standing with a hopeful mindset.

| Amygdala / Parietal Lobe - Her emotions, empathy, and approach.
⊹₊˚‧︵‿₊୨ᰔ୧₊‿︵‧˚₊⊹
You noticed the sharp difference in personality, balancing professionalism with warmth. While maintaining high standards and clear expectations, Sakura stood out by never allowing authority to be an excuse for any rude attitude toward situations or people. Her kindness overshadowed her mindset, and so the woman has always understood and believed that education is not just about learning something new, but it is something more.
She often notices the minor, unspoken things around the school, such as a student feeling relinquished or engulfed, before they verbally express it. Her understanding helps to direct students without confrontation, building a calm and emotionally safe environment. Sakura achieves this by giving a short hint to chat after a lesson or during break time in order to go into a more personal, smaller group. Allowing her students to communicate with her as if Sakura were a close, trusted friend rather than an intimidating teacher. Allowing trust and communication where the student does not feel attacked, gently bringing her attention to the student by asking simple, open-ended questions directed in a way to allow them to open up and feel safe.
The woman collected inspiration, interest, and a pure connection with topics and people alike. Sakura's uniqueness came from her empathy and logical thinking. She understands people's feelings when applying evidence-based strategies to help them learn and grow. Sakura is also extremely interested in the study of micro-expressions, utilising deception detection and nonverbal behaviour observation. Her approach to situations comes with personal observation, connecting personally and directly with any specific matter.

⊹₊˚‧︵‿₊୨ᰔ୧₊‿︵‧˚₊⊹
This slowly led her to research topics in psychology. Sakura initially only started tasting the subject because she wanted to be the best helper she could be for her friends as a kid. Eventually, after spending her childhood doing this, the phrase psychologist came up a lot more frequently in her life and in conversations. A lot of her friends and peers noted how she would be extremely talented in the topic. Slowly, her interest in psychology flourished, and she truly fell in love with the topic and everything that surrounded it, more specifically, human behaviour and reactions to specific situations and scenarios, with feelings. As soon as she turned 18, Sakura committed straight to university to study psychology.
She eventually took up 4 years of full-time study to earn a bachelor's in teaching! After that, Sakura was on the lookout for schools to teach, and her close friend recommended Karakura highschool! After some research, it stood out to her because of its structured system and academic immersion. The woman was drawn to the diverse students, believing it would be a wonderful place to shape young adults, qualifying them for their futures. Along with the school's reputation from around the area, she admired the balance between discipline and creativity within the institution, students with canvases for futures!
She aimed to get a bachelor's degree in social science, so Sakura studied hard, and after 3 years, she achieved her goal. She pursued a job in psychology for another 2 years, helping people in diverse fields related to psychology and counselling, helping hundreds along the way. Though after a lot of thought, she had realised that though useful, sufficient people did not understand their own feelings, and instead of taking on one-to-one sessions, she started teaching it to reach a larger audience more quickly.
Sakura understood, though, that teaching psychology differs from practising it professionally. She regards that early education can help students better understand themselves, as well as lead them to become passionate about the subject. Sakura wants to become a professor to guide, but also to challenge students to do their best, believing in true growth and letting them build resilience, not dependency.

Sakura hopes to create experiences that help students explore human behaviour ethically, as well as empathetically. Her perspective on students and her co-workers is always non-judgmental and full of inspiration. While Sakura is empathetic, she also demands in maintaining firm standards in order to keep structure and an equal playing field for all. She encourages independence and expects students to take responsibility for their actions and have an understanding viewpoint from multiple perspectives.
Respect within her classroom should be mutual and non-negotiable. She does not see anyone as having different potential. believing everyone has the potential to learn and values effort just as much as natural ability. Her outlook toward her co-workers stays similar to that of students, expecting them to be understanding and not see students as different or without potential. In Sakura's mind, mistakes are welcome, though the lack of effort is addressed differently for every student.
Sakura had a sweet family of good fortune. She never had to worry about a roof over her head, a warm bed, or a lack of food or water. Once her mind had opened about how various people did not have the same life Sakura did, her gratitude for her position led her to make it her life goal to contribute back to the community and anyone she could. Sakura wanted to truly make an impact on their lives with her knowledge and share her outlook. Wanting to help people around her deal with any problems they may have and even guide them on a journey to a life they desired. Being there for her friends and co-workers whenever they vented or comforted them when they cried, she was always there and happy to help. It made her happy that Sakura was using her good life to contribute and help others, especially since her surrounding community always said they felt better after she had been there.

Especially after experiencing years of working and studying as a psychologist, she plans to advance her knowledge even further while also inspiring students to explore her shared passions. Dreaming of teaching her knowledge to students while she is still young and energetic, then once Sakura is older, she wishes to go back into psychology, helping pupils with one-to-one laid-back sessions rather than loud, passionate rambles!
For her future career, she intends to create a curriculum that upholds a classroom and balances emotional intelligence with structured learning and remaining firm with values. She holds that consistency and clear rules are essential for long-term student success. After contemplating, she had decided her life goal was to help students whilst Sakura was young and full of energy, and then privately attend to people's problems once she was older!

A jock is ignoring your lesson and throwing paper balls at another student. What would your character do?
⊹₊˚‧︵‿₊୨ᰔ୧₊‿︵‧˚₊⊹
Whilst Sakura was explaining a topic, her voice gradually softened to a halt. Her eyes lingered on the student who had been hit, noticing the slight stiffening and forcing a fraction of a smile. She observed the situation with the jock and the victim. The jock held an exaggerated lean, glancing toward his friends for a sense of approval of this performance.
Sakura had called out the jock's name, continuing to state
" We value respect in this classroom, including someone's ability to learn without being disrupted by those around them. "
Her voice remained warm, but with a non-negotiable tone beneath it.
" First, please grab that paper ball and place it into a trash can. Whilst doing that, could you please tell me the part of the brain related to humour?"
This was in order for him to physically grasp what he had done instead of throwing his actions away, along with that paper ball. And to ground the jock in participating with the class rather than distracting away from it.
" Thank you. Now, you can either help me hand out these papers to the class, or we can have a little chat outside? "
Her voice lowered, though not in anger. Allowing silence to fill the room, awaiting a reply from the jock.
If he were to abide by the first offer, the class would continue as normal, with Sakura having a chat with the affected student after class. Though if the jock were to shrug it off, Sakura would continue with her lecture.
After the class was over, Sakura would head over and have a small chat with the victim who had been hit and messed with. Allowing them to speak on anything bothering them and making sure they were okay, she attempted to grasp what was going on.
Especially if this had been happening for some time, or even recently. Sakura offered that student to sit up near the front with her as a sort of protection barrier from the disruptive students and possibly assigning a time where they could chat further or even with a school counsellor about the issue.

Reminder
" This is your first warning, you are capable of better than this, dear. Something like this does not need to turn into an after school detention. Do you agree? "
Sakura asked a question after her statement, letting the student hear her words. Authorising Sakura to grasp whether the student was genuinely listening to her.
If the jock stopped, Sakura would simply speak with both the jock and the student who had been hit after class. Though if continued with disruptive behaviour later on in the class or the jock replied clearly disrespectfully, Sakura would enforce a further statement.

Formal warning
" This is your second warning. I have already explained the expectations for this classroom. "
Sakura would briefly gesture towards the door, her voice remaining slightly firmer.
" If this continues, we will have to step outside, and you will be issued a detention, and I will ask you to leave this classroom. I would prefer to not go through with that, dear. Please redirect that energy into participating and listening instead. "
This warning stood as more of a lecture on the consequences of continuing. Sakura did not want to further distract the class from learning and instead give the student the opportunity to correct their behaviour without embarrassment or punishment.

Consequence
Sakura would stop the lesson for the final time, her expression more serious, though staying calm.
" This is your final warning. I have given you multiple chances to correct yourself. Unfortunately, as it has continued, I ask you to please step outside with me for a moment. "
Once Sakura gave her students something to work on while she was gone, such as a worksheet or watching a short film. She stepped outside with the jock, her tone remaining steady, away from a confrontational one.
" This classroom should be a place to learn without distractions. At the moment, your actions are preventing that, and due to this continuing past two warnings, this will now result in a detention. "
Sakura passed him a detention slip.
" Please attend the detention after school, and once you return to my class, we reset and move forward from this. Do you understand? You are a very capable, smart young man, and I expect that you know right from wrong "
She would allow the student a moment to respond before returning to her classroom and continuing the lesson. Further maintaining a calm, safe environment within.

A student doesn’t seem to understand the material, yet hasn’t requested help. What would your character do?
⊹₊˚‧︵‿₊୨ᰔ୧₊‿︵‧˚₊⊹
While teaching, Sakura had quickly noticed a student quietly staring at their notebook, tapping their pencil rhythmically without writing much down. The hesitation in their movements and expressions led her to believe the student was experiencing difficulty.
To avoid drawing notice and to support students silently struggling, Sakura had developed a routine of slowly walking around the classroom, ensuring no one felt alone in their confusion. By checking in with every student, Sakura made it feel normal to request help, so no one felt singled out.
She quietly approached the individual, whispering so as not to draw unwanted concern.
" Hey, would you like me to go over this concept with you? "
Sakura phrased her question in a way that the student did not have to ask anything themselves. A simple yes or no was enough for her to guide them, clearing that there was no shame in seeking help.
If the student had nodded, Sakura would acknowledge in a soft tone.
" Is there any part that feels tricky, or is it everything? We can figure it out together! "
Sakura would often utilise small guided examples or draw quick diagrams to make the material clearer. She would explain anything the student had been struggling with, reassuring them.
" Do you understand it better now? Being unsure only leads to growth, it can feel annoying, but never put pressure on yourself! "
She encouraged the student to take notes, even if they did not fully understand the content, because having something written down is better than nothing!
After the student had nodded in understanding, Sakura would not hesitate to check in again later in the lesson or whenever she noticed the student struggling once again. If their confused had persisted, she would notify the student that they could approach her at anytime for extra help, including after her class.
Being a reliable source, Sakura made it a point to provide additional exercises or materials to support the students future understanding in upcoming classes.

When in the faculty lounge, how does your character act?
⊹₊˚‧︵‿₊୨ᰔ୧₊‿︵‧˚₊⊹
Whilst in the teachers lounge, Sakura was deeply aware of how teaching could take a toll on mental health. Walking past her colleagues, she greeted each warmly and with a gentle smile, aiming to let them feel appreciated, though without forcing much conversation.
Sakura often baked fresh cookies to share, bringing a comforting aroma of sweetness that flooded through the room! The cookies built as heart red velvet sugar cookies, with the taste leaving a soft, crackly, sweet, and simple feeling in your mouth. Topped and piped with white chocolate, sprinkled with a hint of salt and caramel for contrast. Whilst handing the cookies out, she often took a listening approach more than she spoke herself. Observing cues and expressions that may hint at feeling, though never confirming these observations aloud, instead offering quiet support.
If someone appeared isolated, she might offer a cookie or a cup of herbal tea without pressure, gently starting a conversation, giving them a chance to open up and feel more comfortable. Her laughter always stood at a level of genuine giggles, though approachable and kind. Every action she took carried a sort of intention and desire to contribute positively to the faculty environment.
Once contributing and speaking with some pupils, she calmly sat in her own space, her posture and presence in a soft though confident style. Actively reading some new extra facts she was curious about, or writing notes for a new class. She would sip her tea with a cookie of her own, switching between her own activities and listening to her coworkers from afar. Opening a window to let some healthy fresh air into everyone's system, taking care of the musky scent of mixed food aromas and coffee spills.

Reaction time
Learning Intention :
Students will investigate how reflexes and decision making can relate to the brain and nervous system
Activity :
- In pairs, one student drops a ruler and the other catches it as quickly as possible. ( rolling out of 20 for their base success rate )
- Students are to record their reaction times in a book, repeating the experiment whilst being distracted or whilst gently pinching themselves. ( Each rolling out of 10 to lessen chances, representing a compromised mind )
- They are to compare results and think about how attention and brain processing can affect reactions. Along with potential fatigue!
By the end :
Students should understand the relationship between neural processing and reaction speed and see how cognition affects physical responses.

Emotions in Action.
Learning intention :
Students will identify the cognitive and behavioural components of emotions and connect them to real situations.
Activity :
- Students will be divided into pairs and given scenario cards such as. " You just saw a snake! " or " You just dropped your phone in water "
- In a book, they will list physical reactions, thoughts, or behaviours for each scenario they receive.
- Then, groups will compare responses and discuss why they may differ between people, linking to theories of emotion.
By the end :
Students should have a better understanding of how emotions differ and can be influenced both in mind and body by specific scenarios.

Brain functions
Learning intention :
Students determine the interactions between brain regions and neurons in producing behaviour.
Activity :
- Each student will be assigned a booklet with a brain region or a neuron component. This booklet will have information on what role their part is in the body.
- The teacher will assign the class a scenario, such as touching something hot or watching a sad movie.
- Students will have to act out their part, passing messages along through neurons and brain functions!
By the end :
Students should have a better understanding of the main brain regions, neuron components, and the brief pathway of neural communication when faced with a behaviour.

Sensory signals
Learning intention :
Students will explore how someone's perception of textures or physical stimuli can be altered by prior knowledge and expectation.
Activity :
- Students are all given a board filled with different textures and physical feelings such as slime, pebbles, sandpaper, and so on, along with a book to document their findings.
- Students shall first write a hypothesis on how they think they will react before they feel each material.
- Then they will interact with each texture, writing what they perceive and why they perceive the material that way. Do they like it? What feelings or memories does it bring to the surface?
- Then they will write if their hypothesis was correct and compare what they thought earlier to now.
By the end :
Students should be able to explain how perception can vary and influence factors that can influence sensory interpretation.

Memory game
Learning intention :
Students will explore how short-term memory functions in the prefrontal cortex and recognising why your brain chooses to recognise certain things easier than others.
Activity :
- Students will work in groups of two, receiving a series of 8 items on their desks. ( written in a book )
- Student A had 3 seconds to memorise all the items in front of them
- Person B covers person A’s eyes whilst they secretly remove 1 item at random from the bunch.
- Student A must attempt to remember which item is missing !
- Students switch roles so both can experience memorising and recalling.
- They must discuss and write which items were easiest to recall and why? How does attention and perception affect what we remember?
By the end :
Students will know how to explain how perception influences memory and why some memories are easier to recall than others, connecting these to short-term memory functions in the brain.

field trip idea
Learning intention :
Students will explore how animals' behaviour and responses relate to brain function and sensory perception.
Activity :
- Students will be taken to a forest, park, or natural area with observable wildlife such as birds, bees, goats, or bears.
- From a safe distance, students will fill out and complete a worksheet observing the animals' reactions to movement, sound, or food. Noting how quickly or cautiously they respond.
- Students will record their data, though never involving themselves with the animals, drawing diagrams or writing notes.
- Everyone will compare and share some reflections with the class, discussing questions such as
How did the animals respond to their surroundings?
How could these observations relate to humans or other species?
By the end :
Students should be able to describe connections between behaviour and brain function, explaining how thinking could arise in animal behaviour. Teaching that psychology is not just about humans but that it is about all brains, including the study of animal function and perception.

ROLEPLAY EXPERIENCE
BEGININGS
Starting with the background of my overall roleplay experience, I felt that over the years I have accumulated quite a dose of quality insight that shapes who I am today related to roleplay. In second grade, with my friends at school, we would essentially play games such as mums and dads, assigning roles to each other with specific concepts.
This involved more typical family-based scenarios where there were simple actions of cooking or cleaning, going out to the park to play. Of course, as this was my first exposure to the idea of roleplay, acting, and improv, it was very minor and short, though I still consider it serves a larger purpose in my universal growth.
TRANSITION
As I grew older, my exposure to technology evolved, directing me toward an online form of roleplay. Discovered through Minecraft Pocket Edition, I was initially drawn to creative building a variety of different environments such as buildings, forests with caves, huts, secrets, and many more.
Driven by inspiration and assisted by friends' hobbies, the idea of roleplay made its way into our Minecraft worlds! Turning into writing each player's character names and ages on signs, possibly with a book &, quills attached, filled with lore and extra information. Leading us to act out short scenarios and establishing a lightly structured system, slowly introducing me more and more to the concept of roleplaying.
EXPANSION
Once I had a taste of what this type of roleplay could be like, I yearned for something larger and more immersive, involving roleplay with other people with the same passions! I began engaging in unofficial RP's on MCPE featured public servers. Two specifically, which I have the most vivid memories of, one included a minimal school map and the other simply a hub with a large map, which not uncommonly players used for roleplay.
Around this time, immersion appeared more frequently, learning to adjust my Minecraft skin to match scenarios such as swimming, cold or warm weather, and so on. However, these servers were not specifically designed for roleplay, as one was a hub and the other had different mini-game features related to schooling and was not tailored for roleplay scenarios.
INSPIRATION
Around this time is when I first discovered Scholar, though I did not have access to Minecraft Java Edition. Because of this barrier, I strove to find alternatives to SRP instead of Bedrock and eventually found a school-style roleplay server with a much larger player base than seen before! Here is where the main basis of roleplay came to light.
The character I chose portrayed a very energetic and social character, which caused there to be many insignificant forms of roleplay, involving meeting new people and having fun. I was commonly creating friend groups and exploring the community while collaborating with various personalities and players. Though not too serious, I still believe it helped me develop a larger skill set, incorporating improv and interacting with various unique people.
EVOLUTION
Over time, as that server slowly grew, so did my commitment to roleplay! During this period, creative literature had a significant impact on me. A close friend and I had composed a novel together, filled with various characters, including complex lore and deep personalities associated with each persona. This was when I truly felt the enjoyment of more mature roleplay, where my focus shifted away from messing around and more toward having scenarios stay more immersive and with meaning.
I essentially began contributing to DetailRP's in Discord servers and DMs, which let me bring to life the characters I created. Allowing myself to interact more toward an in-depth writing style RP, introducing myself to this further ideology, though at this time, Minecraft role plays had never left my side, still actively immersed in scenarios.
MILESTONE
Finally, as I ventured into owning Java Edition, I had attended SRP for the first time around December 2022. Initially, once I had achieved this exciting new opportunity, I had evolved to a whole new level of roleplay, where I could essentially have a proper extroverted character whilst also maintaining a stable balance of serious RP.
All the features of SRP had given me so much interest because of the immersive features not being as available in the Bedrock Edition of Minecraft servers, such as whispering or yelling. This was when I was introduced to so many new features and concepts, and as a greenie, slowly learning what SRP is truly all about!
DEVELOPMENT
Eventually, once I had played for a while, I started developing my characters beyond simple fun interactions, focusing on more long-term storytelling. At this time, I had met a quantity of friends and started a family dynamic, which introduced a lot of lore about my first character's family background.
Various types of DetailRP, such as romance, gang, sports, and cooking RP, were another milestone which had helped me improve my actions immensely, practising scenarios with consistency and even being trained on how to write actions for combat. Some of these included role plays that went for hours, with each person writing 3 appends of DetailRP for each action, leading to a brighter insight into this side of SRP.
As I immersed further into roleplay, I also cooperated in school tasks more seriously, which also helped me learn a lot about writing as well as how the school and faculty team worked, aiding in class activities and DetailRP such as cooking or drawing. I truly enjoyed the thrill of improvising more serious scenes based on what was happening around me, which helped improve my literature and overall English skills.
GROWTH
Whenever given the opportunity, I have always tried to help the community, whether it is contributing to bug reports, helping greenies out to learn commands and giving them items to start them off, answering questions asked in OOC when people need help, or even reporting people for inappropriate behaviour. Very early on, I tailored in SRP, which I believe starting out so soon had given me a lot of experience in authority, following guidelines, and also working with various people. Learning to handle conflicts and observing the faculty structure.
Overall, I truly think that over the years, I have accumulated a great deal of knowledge about roleplaying and all of its subtopics. The transition from simple childhood games to immersive role plays, as such, has brought me to a further stage of wanting to take on a more mature, responsible, and important role within the community.
In your own words, why do you think professors are important to SchoolRP?
My belief in the importance of professors continues to develop each day. I incorporate more ideals into why they are such an honourable role in SRP! When I first joined SRP, faculty members especially stood out to me as large role models within the community. I admired faculty members through plentiful methods in ICLY and OOC settings. Witnessing how they professionally handled situations in class involving possible ruckus, or even simply how they spoke and interacted with the surrounding students.
Even plain helping outside of class times, allowing students to print copies of books or showing a new player around the school when a receptionist is not around. Along with teaching students a little about their subject is inspiring how their passion for a subject can impact someone, letting them learn something new, OOCLY and ICLY. Professors take schoolwork with an interesting and more serious perspective, whilst allowing students to complete their goals and guide them on their pathway to developing into a higher degree level, or even all the way to an adult role.
Professors are an essential part of maintaining the flow of the schooling system, serving an even larger role now than ever before. After the graduation homework rework, every day, more players make their way into college, which immensely increases the demand and importance for professors.
Do you acknowledge that if you are inactive, you may face demotion or removal from the faction?
Yes, I acknowledge this and understand the consequences.
Do you understand if your application is accepted, you may have to undergo professor training?:
Yes, I acknowledge this and understand the requirements.

(not written in question order, having snippets of each question with different spoilers)
Occipital Lobe - Your perception, your first impression of Sakura.
ENFJ-A
As your gaze settled on Sakura, you noticed a natural, quiet warmth deep within her. An inviting aura surrounded her 5'6" figure, followed by an easygoing courage, less filled with intimidation and more with reassurance. The way Sakura held herself had something authentic and sincere about her uplifting care for those around her, even if she barely knew them.
Her steps moved in productive, contrastingly graceful strides, seemingly fully at ease, with an optimistic, relaxed mind at every corner. Enhancing her persona further, a fragrant hint of vanilla seemed to accompany her, leaving a comforting impression in every room. In conversation, Sakura is commonly witnessed remaining composed and observant, listening with genuine focus and examining social and physical cues.
Though soft-spoken, her confidence is unmistakable, always offers guidance with steady encouragement and protection, on no occasion rushing or doing anything with force. Sakura was a carefully kept 27-year-old lady who looked younger than her age. Sakura was entirely comfortable with herself, maintaining a well-polished appearance.
Her figure was slim yet healthy, with brushed curves complementing her height. All of her features were nothing excessive, each harmonising with each-other in a balanced, attractive, and approachable manner. Her oval-shaped face confined large, slim brownish-blue eyes that often carried strokes of mascara with inconspicuous eyeliner. Paired with two straight eyebrows engaged in a fine arch, tapering thinner towards the ends. The centre of her face charmed a modest Greek-style nose and timidly upturned lips. Her bottom lip pouted marginally fuller than the top, whilst her jawline conveyed a tame definition, leading down to her subtly pointed chin.
As she gave a bright smile, the twinkle in her eyes was juxtaposed with her rosy-tinted cheeks and adorable dimples. Her long, blue hair was naturally silky straight, not uncommonly styled into careful waves resting upon her shoulder. A light fringe fell across her forehead, creating an intentional, somewhat messy sweetness framing her face. The scent of strawberry shampoo drifted from her hair as Sakura strutted, blending with her layers of vanilla perfume and honeysuckle body lotion, leaving her delicate, warm-toned skin with a faint glittery shimmer.
Her clothing style favours a formal and trendy style, influenced by her past role as a model. Frequently seen wearing skirts or dresses, without exception, coupled with heels, adding height to her frame. Her posture constantly stayed upright, though collected, never stiff or slouched, and her movements were nimble and filled with purpose. Her overall signature was standing with a hopeful mindset.
Amygdala / Parietal Lobe - Her emotions, empathy, and approach.
You noticed the sharp difference in personality, balancing professionalism with warmth. While maintaining high standards and clear expectations, Sakura stood out by never allowing authority to be an excuse for any rude attitude toward situations or people. Her kindness overshadowed her mindset, and so the woman has always understood and believed that education is not just about learning something new, but it is something more.
She often notices the minor, unspoken things around the school, such as a student feeling relinquished or engulfed, before they verbally express it. Her understanding helps to direct students without confrontation, building a calm and emotionally safe environment. Sakura achieves this by giving a short hint to chat after a lesson or during break time in order to go into a more personal, smaller group. Allowing her students to communicate with her as if Sakura were a close, trusted friend rather than an intimidating teacher. Allowing trust and communication where the student does not feel attacked, gently bringing her attention to the student by asking simple, open-ended questions directed in a way to allow them to open up and feel safe.
The woman collected inspiration, interest, and a pure connection with topics and people alike. Sakura's uniqueness came from her empathy and logical thinking. She understands people's feelings when applying evidence-based strategies to help them learn and grow. Sakura is also extremely interested in the study of micro-expressions, utilising deception detection and nonverbal behaviour observation. Her approach to situations comes with personal observation, connecting personally and directly with any specific matter.
Temporal Lobe / Hippocampus -Sakura's memories, experiences, and development.
This slowly led her to research topics in psychology. Sakura initially only started tasting the subject because she wanted to be the best helper she could be for her friends as a kid. Eventually, after spending her childhood doing this, the phrase psychologist came up a lot more frequently in her life and in conversations. A lot of her friends and peers noted how she would be extremely talented in the topic. Slowly, her interest in psychology flourished, and she truly fell in love with the topic and everything that surrounded it, more specifically, human behaviour and reactions to specific situations and scenarios, with feelings. As soon as she turned 18, Sakura committed straight to university to study psychology.
She eventually took up 4 years of full-time study to earn a bachelor's in teaching! After that, Sakura was on the lookout for schools to teach, and her close friend recommended Karakura highschool! After some research, it stood out to her because of its structured system and academic immersion. The woman was drawn to the diverse students, believing it would be a wonderful place to shape young adults, qualifying them for their futures. Along with the school's reputation from around the area, she admired the balance between discipline and creativity within the institution, students with canvases for futures!
She aimed to get a bachelor's degree in social science, so Sakura studied hard, and after 3 years, she achieved her goal. She pursued a job in psychology for another 2 years, helping people in diverse fields related to psychology and counselling, helping hundreds along the way. Though after a lot of thought, she had realised that though useful, sufficient people did not understand their own feelings, and instead of taking on one-to-one sessions, she started teaching it to reach a larger audience more quickly.
Sakura understood, though, that teaching psychology differs from practising it professionally. She regards that early education can help students better understand themselves, as well as lead them to become passionate about the subject. Sakura wants to become a professor to guide, but also to challenge students to do their best, believing in true growth and letting them build resilience, not dependency.
Hippocampus / Prefrontal Cortex - Her visions, philosophy, and ethical thinking.
Sakura hopes to create experiences that help students explore human behaviour ethically, as well as empathetically. Her perspective on students and her co-workers is always non-judgmental and full of inspiration. While Sakura is empathetic, she also demands in maintaining firm standards in order to keep structure and an equal playing field for all. She encourages independence and expects students to take responsibility for their actions and have an understanding viewpoint from multiple perspectives.
Respect within her classroom should be mutual and non-negotiable. She does not see anyone as having different potential. believing everyone has the potential to learn and values effort just as much as natural ability. Her outlook toward her co-workers stays similar to that of students, expecting them to be understanding and not see students as different or without potential. In Sakura's mind, mistakes are welcome, though the lack of effort is addressed differently for every student.
Sakura had a sweet family of good fortune. She never had to worry about a roof over her head, a warm bed, or a lack of food or water. Once her mind had opened about how various people did not have the same life Sakura did, her gratitude for her position led her to make it her life goal to contribute back to the community and anyone she could. Sakura wanted to truly make an impact on their lives with her knowledge and share her outlook. Wanting to help people around her deal with any problems they may have and even guide them on a journey to a life they desired. Being there for her friends and co-workers whenever they vented or comforted them when they cried, she was always there and happy to help. It made her happy that Sakura was using her good life to contribute and help others, especially since her surrounding community always said they felt better after she had been there.
Prefrontal Cortex - Sakura's plans, motivations, and decision making.
Especially after experiencing years of working and studying as a psychologist, she plans to advance her knowledge even further while also inspiring students to explore her shared passions. Dreaming of teaching her knowledge to students while she is still young and energetic, then once Sakura is older, she wishes to go back into psychology, helping pupils with one-to-one laid-back sessions rather than loud, passionate rambles!
For her future career, she intends to create a curriculum that upholds a classroom and balances emotional intelligence with structured learning and remaining firm with values. She holds that consistency and clear rules are essential for long-term student success. After contemplating, she had decided her life goal was to help students whilst Sakura was young and full of energy, and then privately attend to people's problems once she was older!
RP SCENES
A jock is ignoring your lesson and throwing paper balls at another student. What would your character do?
Whilst Sakura was explaining a topic, her voice gradually softened to a halt. Her eyes lingered on the student who had been hit, noticing the slight stiffening and forcing a fraction of a smile. She observed the situation with the jock and the victim. The jock held an exaggerated lean, glancing toward his friends for a sense of approval of this performance.
Sakura had called out the jock's name, continuing to state
" We value respect in this classroom, including someone's ability to learn without being disrupted by those around them. "
Her voice remained warm, but with a non-negotiable tone beneath it.
" First, please grab that paper ball and place it into a trash can. Whilst doing that, could you please tell me the part of the brain related to humour?"
This was in order for him to physically grasp what he had done instead of throwing his actions away, along with that paper ball. And to ground the jock in participating with the class rather than distracting away from it.
" Thank you. Now, you can either help me hand out these papers to the class, or we can have a little chat outside? "
Her voice lowered, though not in anger. Allowing silence to fill the room, awaiting a reply from the jock.
If he were to abide by the first offer, the class would continue as normal, with Sakura having a chat with the affected student after class. Though if the jock were to shrug it off, Sakura would continue with her lecture.
Reminder
" This is your first warning, you are capable of better than this, dear. Something like this does not need to turn into an after school detention. Do you agree? "
Sakura asked a question after her statement, letting the student hear her words. Authorising Sakura to grasp whether the student was genuinely listening to her.
If the jock stopped, Sakura would simply speak with both the jock and the student who had been hit after class. Though if continued with disruptive behaviour later on in the class or the jock replied clearly disrespectfully, Sakura would enforce a further statement.
Formal warning
" This is your second warning. I have already explained the expectations for this classroom. "
Sakura would briefly gesture towards the door, her voice remaining slightly firmer.
" If this continues, we will have to step outside, and you will be issued a detention, and I will ask you to leave this classroom. I would prefer to not go through with that, dear. Please redirect that energy into participating and listening instead. "
This warning stood as more of a lecture on the consequences of continuing. Sakura did not want to further distract the class from learning and instead give the student the opportunity to correct their behaviour without embarrassment or punishment.
Consequence
Sakura would stop the lesson for the final time, her expression more serious, though staying calm.
" This is your final warning. I have given you multiple chances to correct yourself. Unfortunately, as it has continued, I ask you to please step outside with me for a moment. "
Once Sakura gave her students something to work on while she was gone, such as a worksheet or watching a short film. She stepped outside with the jock, her tone remaining steady, away from a confrontational one.
" This classroom should be a place to learn without distractions. At the moment, your actions are preventing that, and due to this continuing past two warnings, this will now result in a detention. "
Sakura passed him a detention slip.
" Please attend the detention after school, and once you return to my class, we reset and move forward from this. Do you understand? You are a very capable, smart young man, and I expect that you know right from wrong "
She would allow the student a moment to respond before returning to her classroom and continuing the lesson. Further maintaining a calm, safe environment within.
After the class was over, Sakura would head over and have a small chat with the victim who had been hit and messed with. Allowing them to speak on anything bothering them and making sure they were okay, she attempted to grasp what was going on.
Especially if this had been happening for some time, or even recently. Sakura offered that student to sit up near the front with her as a sort of protection barrier from the disruptive students and possibly assigning a time where they could chat further or even with a school counsellor about the issue.
A student doesn’t seem to understand the material, yet hasn’t requested help. What would your character do?
While teaching, Sakura had quickly noticed a student quietly staring at their notebook, tapping their pencil rhythmically without writing much down. The hesitation in their movements and expressions led her to believe the student was experiencing difficulty.
To avoid drawing notice and to support students silently struggling, Sakura had developed a routine of slowly walking around the classroom, ensuring no one felt alone in their confusion. By checking in with every student, Sakura made it feel normal to request help, so no one felt singled out.
She quietly approached the individual, whispering so as not to draw unwanted concern.
" Hey, would you like me to go over this concept with you? "
Sakura phrased her question in a way that the student did not have to ask anything themselves. A simple yes or no was enough for her to guide them, clearing that there was no shame in seeking help.
If the student had nodded, Sakura would acknowledge in a soft tone.
" Is there any part that feels tricky, or is it everything? We can figure it out together! "
Sakura would often utilise small guided examples or draw quick diagrams to make the material clearer. She would explain anything the student had been struggling with, reassuring them.
" Do you understand it better now? Being unsure only leads to growth, it can feel annoying, but never put pressure on yourself! "
She encouraged the student to take notes, even if they did not fully understand the content, because having something written down is better than nothing!
After the student had nodded in understanding, Sakura would not hesitate to check in again later in the lesson or whenever she noticed the student struggling once again. If their confusion had persisted, she would notify the student that they could approach her at anytime for extra help, including after her class.
Being a reliable source, Sakura made it a point to provide additional exercises or materials to support the students future understanding in upcoming classes.
When in the faculty lounge, how does your character act?
Whilst in the teachers lounge, Sakura was deeply aware of how teaching could take a toll on mental health. Walking past her colleagues, she greeted each warmly and with a gentle smile, aiming to let them feel appreciated, though without forcing much conversation.
Sakura often baked fresh cookies to share, bringing a comforting aroma of sweetness that flooded through the room! The cookies built as heart red velvet sugar cookies, with the taste leaving a soft, crackly, sweet, and simple feeling in your mouth. Topped and piped with white chocolate, sprinkled with a hint of salt and caramel for contrast. Whilst handing the cookies out, she often took a listening approach more than she spoke herself. Observing cues and expressions that may hint at feeling, though never confirming these observations aloud, instead offering quiet support.
If someone appeared isolated, she might offer a cookie or a cup of herbal tea without pressure, gently starting a conversation, giving them a chance to open up and feel more comfortable. Her laughter always stood at a level of genuine giggles, though approachable and kind. Every action she took carried a sort of intention and desire to contribute positively to the faculty environment.
Once contributing and speaking with some pupils, she calmly sat in her own space, her posture and presence in a soft though confident style. Actively reading some new extra facts she was curious about, or writing notes for a new class. She would sip her tea with a cookie of her own, switching between her own activities and listening to her coworkers from afar. Opening a window to let some healthy fresh air into everyone's system, taking care of the musky scent of mixed food aromas and coffee spills.
Provide at least 2 interactive class ideas and one field trip idea related to your subject
CLASS 1 Reaction time
Learning Intention :
Students will investigate how reflexes and decision making can relate to the brain and nervous system
Activity :
- In pairs, one student drops a ruler and the other catches it as quickly as possible. ( rolling out of 20 for their base success rate )
- Students are to record their reaction times in a book, repeating the experiment whilst being distracted or whilst gently pinching themselves. ( Each rolling out of 10 to lessen chances, representing a compromised mind )
- They are to compare results and think about how attention and brain processing can affect reactions. Along with potential fatigue!
By the end :
Students should understand the relationship between neural processing and reaction speed and see how cognition affects physical responses.
CLASS 2 Emotions in Action.
Learning intention :
Students will identify the cognitive and behavioural components of emotions and connect them to real situations.
Activity :
- Students will be divided into pairs and given scenario cards such as. " You just saw a snake! " or " You just dropped your phone in water "
- In a book, they will list physical reactions, thoughts, or behaviours for each scenario they receive.
- Then, groups will compare responses and discuss why they may differ between people, linking to theories of emotion.
By the end :
Students should have a better understanding of how emotions differ and can be influenced both in mind and body by specific scenarios.
CLASS 3 Brain functions
Learning intention :
Students determine the interactions between brain regions and neurons in producing behaviour.
Activity :
- Each student will be assigned a booklet with a brain region or a neuron component. This booklet will have information on what role their part is in the body.
- The teacher will assign the class a scenario, such as touching something hot or watching a sad movie.
- Students will have to act out their part, passing messages along through neurons and brain functions!
By the end :
Students should have a better understanding of the main brain regions, neuron components, and the brief pathway of neural communication when faced with a behaviour.
CLASS 4 Sensory signals
Learning intention :
Students will explore how someone's perception of textures or physical stimuli can be altered by prior knowledge and expectation.
Activity :
- Students are all given a board filled with different textures and physical feelings such as slime, pebbles, sandpaper, and so on, along with a book to document their findings.
- Students shall first write a hypothesis on how they think they will react before they feel each material.
- Then they will interact with each texture, writing what they perceive and why they perceive the material that way. Do they like it? What feelings or memories does it bring to the surface?
- Then they will write if their hypothesis was correct and compare what they thought earlier to now.
By the end :
Students should be able to explain how perception can vary and influence factors that can influence sensory interpretation.
CLASS 5 Memory game
Learning intention :
Students will explore how short-term memory functions in the prefrontal cortex and recognising why your brain chooses to recognise certain things easier than others.
Activity :
- Students will work in groups of two, receiving a series of 8 items on their desks. ( written in a book )
- Student A had 3 seconds to memorise all the items in front of them
- Person B covers person B's eyes whilst they secretly remove 1 item at random from the bunch.
- Student A must attempt to remember which item is missing !
- Students switch roles so both can experience memorising and recalling.
- They must discuss and write which items were easiest to recall and why? How does attention and perception affect what we remember?
By the end :
Students will know how to explain how perception influences memory and why some memories are easier to recall than others, connecting these to short-term memory functions in the brain.
Moral dilemmas
Learning Intention:
Students will explore how moral decisions are influenced by emotions, social pressure, as well as personal values.
Activity:
- The teacher will call out short moral dilemma scenarios such as :
"Would you save one person or five people?"
"Would you lie to protect a friend?"
- Students will move to different sides of the classroom depending on their decision.
- Each group will explain their reasoning to form a further understanding of one another.
By the end:
Students should understand that moral reasoning can vary widely and is influenced by outside values in each person.
field trip idea
Learning intention :
Students will explore how animals' behaviour and responses relate to brain function and sensory perception.
Activity :
- Students will be taken to a forest, park, or natural area with observable wildlife such as birds, bees, goats, or bears.
- From a safe distance, students will fill out and complete a worksheet observing the animals' reactions to movement, sound, or food. Noting how quickly or cautiously they respond.
- Students will record their data, though never involving themselves with the animals, drawing diagrams or writing notes.
- Everyone will compare and share some reflections with the class, discussing questions such as
How did the animals respond to their surroundings?
How could these observations relate to humans or other species?
By the end :
Students should be able to describe connections between behaviour and brain function, explaining how thinking could arise in animal behaviour. Teaching that psychology is not just about humans but that it is about all brains, including the study of animal function and perception.
