This was a desk near the entrance of the Academy where a plump old woman sat, offering a piece of paper where the students were supposed to write their CVs on.

The information in the CV was supposed to be the following:

Name: ...

Age: ...

Gender: ...

Hometown and family status: ...

Background history: ...

Purpose for joining the Alchemists: ...

Lira carefully knocked on the Academy door and entered. She looked around, everything sinking in her memory. The girl finally saw the sign "Reception Desk" as she came closer. The Alchemist wanna be got one CV paper and started filling it:

Name: Lira Phoenix

Age: 18

Gender: Female

Hometown and family status: Clifford; Has two twin-sisters; Parents - alive o.O ("What am I supposed to write here anyway!?" - murmured the girl beneath her nose and continued writing.)

Background history: At 16 I left my hometown and I spent the next two years in Rush Valley. Now I am here to become an Alchemist.

When she was ready, Lira handed the piece of paper back to the woman behind the desk and smiled kindly.

"Very well, Miss Phoenix," said the old woman after looking trough the CV and putting it away in a drawer. Then she handed a key to the girl and said: "This is for your room in the Alchemy Dorms. Its room 101. For now you will be alone, but the next two students entering the Academy will be put togwther with you."

"Thank you! Have a nice day!" - Lira smiled and headed towards the Dorms to leave her luggage, while w2andering what her roommates would be like.

A tall raven-haired girl approached the reception desk and glared darkly with her blue eyes at the plump woman. She snatched a CV paper without a single word and started writing down brief information about herself.

Name: Revi Phoenix

Age: 18

Gender: Female

Hometown and family status: Town of Clifford; has two twin sisters; parents: married.

Background history: Lived in Clifford until 16, left for the South, came to Central in order to become an Alchemsit.

After she was finished, the dark-clad young woman gave the paper to the worker behind the desk and waited, looking blankly at her.

The old woman eyed her with a look saying 'youngsters these days', before putting away the CV and handing her a key.
"Here you go, Miss Phoenix," she said and scratched the back of her head wondering where the name sounded familiar from. "You're in room 101. There's already a young girl there and I hope you'll get along well."

Subject: Re: The Reception Desk Mon Aug 18, 2008 5:25 am

'Cool, I hope she won't ask any unnecessary questions,' Revi looked at the key and nodded her thanks to the woman. She threw the piece of metal in the air and snatched it with a swift motion in her palm and looked at the number 101. The blackhead waved 'goodbye' and headed for the exit, her sack positioned on one showder.

A little after it was closed again, the door burst open and a red and blue blur flashed trough it. In just a second it was made obvious that a young woman with bright red hair and blue clothes and backpack had dashed into the room. She snatched the piece of paper and still panting from all of the running wrote down the needed information:

Name: Kylie Phoenix

Age: 18

Gender: Female

Hometown and family status: Clifford; My parents are happily married (at least were two years ago) and I have two twins

Background history: I spent my childhood in Clifford and left it at 16. I spend the last two years to the North.

Purpose for joining the Alchemists: To rise my Alchemy abilities.

Once that was done she handed it to the old woman and waited, trying to catch her breath.

It took the woman a second to get over the shock of the sudden appearance of the girl and then she looked trough the CV. 'Now this is strange. Those two must be the other twins...'
"Here is th key to your room, Miss Phoenix. The number is 101."

Subject: Re: The Reception Desk Mon Aug 18, 2008 5:50 am

When the key got handed yo her the girl didn't wait a second and snatched it, putting it in one of her pockets and after a quick 'thank you', she ran out of the door again.

A small boy stumbled through the front doors, bumping into nearly everyone near him while quietly muttering an apology as he looked down at his feet, blue bangs hanging in his face to hide his embarrassment. Once he reached the front desk, he grabbed for the paper and scribbled in almost illegible hand writing.

Name: Zachary Iofiel

Age: 16 (17 in 6 months!)

Gender: Boy

Hometown and family status: Runyun. I'm pretty sure my family's still alive and well.

Background history: I was born in Runyun. I helped my parents with their restraunt, but after realizing how bad I was at being a waiter, I quit and went to school. A few years later I decided to study alchemy. And here I am.

Purpose for joining the Alchemists: I want to make my parents proud.

He sighed and handed it to the woman, smiling nervously at her. "Is that all I gotta do?"

The woman looked trough it quickly and then smiled sweetly at the boy:
"Sure, sweety. Here," she handed him a key with the number 102. "This is the key to your room. For now you're alone in there, but as soon as a new student comes he or she'll be sent with you."
