In this fictional land, there's many cities placed at great distances between each other. When boys turn ten, they can either go to schools, or go and train to be knights in the main city, Tortall. Tortall is where the castle resides for their kingdom. Beyond that, the Badzir tribes make their homes int he desert.
But that's not relevant now. There are five boys who travel from their cities to train at the kingdom. They'll train as Pages for three years, then be assigned as Squires for knights. They'll have to prove themselves worthy to hold a blue and silver shield for Tortall and protect their kingdom.
There are three girls who, for various reasons, hide their gender to be Pages, too. If they're found out, they'll most likely be cast from the land.
One of the five is the prince, the only son of Kind Roald and Queen Thayet.
This group of Eight Pages find that they have connections with each other, wheather they like it or not. Each of them has the Gift. The Gift is what people call it when someone has magic. The Gift comes from a magic within the user, and their eyes are the colour of it.
When a scorcerer comes to the kingdom meaning nothing but trouble for those eight, how will they react? Can they react in time to save the prince from certain death?

She tries her best to act, but sometimes her femenine side gets the better of her. |Short History;; Janelle's mother died giving birth to her and her twin brother, Neal. Her brother was supposed to go to be a Page, and she was supposed to train at the City of the Gods to be a sorceress, but she wanted to fight for her kingdom, and he wanted to learn magic.

|Name;; Xyun Q'eis (Yvonne) |Title;; Xyun of Winter's Reach |Part;; Female |Apperance;; She has black hair now cropped short in a choppy manner, but it's still rather long and she ties it at the nape of her neck with a black ribbon.

He has golden eyes and chocolate brown hair that curls when it ends just below his ears. |Personality;; Kyle can act like a complete know-it-all sometimes and can have a real temper, but when he comes to, he is actually a very kind person that knows what he wants in life and that he must work hard to recieve his wishes. (He does not show emotion much, aside from anger and solemness.) |Short History;; Kyle knows his parents; actually, he knows them all too well, though he lives with his aunt and uncle. Because his parents were the lower of the middle-class, they were having a hard enough time making ends meet while they all ready ad one child. So his aunt and uncle took him in, in hopes of him growing to be as great of people as his parents (though it seems he has his older brother Zac's temper but his mother's kindness).
Join as the prince? I'll type up my info in a sec, just making sure it's alright~
|Name;; Lucifer |Title;; Lucifer of Tortall |Part;; prince~ |Apperance;; average height, dirty blonde hair, deep blue eyes (cause he has the Gift of water-colored magic) |Personality;; mff, sorry, don't know yet Dx |Short History;; well, he's the prince right, but he's the second-oldest, and knew he wouldn't be a king, so he decided to be a knight instead.

Forgot to mention, but your title has to be a guy name, because you're pretending to be a guy. It's also part of the form to put why your girl wants to be a knight.
