Hum, looks like Sokka is in the lead again... Somewhat unfortunate, as that is the setting I know the least about... And find least interesting, honestly.
[X] Fire Nation Shennanigans has resulted in Wang Fire being recalled from active duty on the Northern Front and into the bed chambers of Princess Azula.
[X] Vote Change to Louise.
Aaaaand vote called. Post Alpha will be up soon, as well a character sheet. Louise wins! And Anzu looses, being the only poor girl without a vote to her name. I really must do a card quest some time with her.. And Tsukune lovers, don't worry, I'm working on a few ideas for him to. But first we'll see how this goes.
So. It was the day that you had dreaded. The day you had dreamed of. The Springtime Familiar Summoning. Today was the day. You would, for the first time ever, cast a successful spell. You hoped.
You had done all the research, all the reading... You've practiced the spell until it become not an incantation, but a mantra.. For your teachers had made it clear, gently, but in no uncertain terms that this was your last chance to prove yourself. Prove yourself a true noble, not a failure.. Prove yourself worth the family name, worth Cattleya's regard.. worth your mothers respect.
And so you waited. Patiently. Well, mostly patiently. It's not your fault Germanians are so annoying, right? Still, there is one thing for sure.. Your Familiar would blow her stupid Salamander out of the water.
..And then.. it was time. And so you incanted. And so you cast.. Nothing. Silence. Not even an explosion.. Once more you try, for the same result. The mocking of your peers grows. You beg the teacher for one last try..
You will succeed this time!..
"I, Louise Françoise Le Blanc de La Vallière, in the name of the great Five Pentagon Powers, following my fate, summon a familiar."
So you cast. So you believe.. So you demand of yourself, reaching deep into your soul.
For a moment.. Nothing. And then it flares to life. Within you, you can feel it.. Something, for just one single instant, burns. Burns brighter then you can imagine..
And then, for a second, your thoughts.. stray. Memories, or should I say visions, arise.. But of what?
[ ] You see the deep shadows, the wasteful strength, the rising tide of darkness. Within your soul, you see it. The emptyness. The lack. The Void.
[ ] You dream of the past. You dream of the future. You see them.. those that have come before, those that have come after. You walk in the footsteps of a thousand thousand students, and a thousand thousand will follow in yours. Seeking knowledge. Seeking.. Awareness. You can smell the sea.
[ ] And in that instant your heart ignites. You are Louise Françoise le Blanc de la Vallière, and you will not fail here! For your family. For the princess you were once friends with. For yourself! And to spite that Zerbst! All you can see is Flames.

I know this one gets us Fire, but what do the other two grant us?
