A01 - AUDITORIUM

[Carrs Jasal]

Starfleet Academy's auditorium is a huge, bright, modern-looking space capable of seating over 500 people. The entire South wall is made up of windows allowing the sunshine in and an awe-inspiring view of San Francisco Bay and the Golden Gate Bridge. On the other walls hang large painted portraits of Starfleet legends--the noble people who set an example for cadets and officers alike--including the likes of Jonathan Archer, Christopher Pike, and Kathryn Janeway. There are currently a few dozen beings of various races occupying the auditorium: some are talking in small groups and others just enjoying the view between classes. Most are wearing uniforms designating them as cadets at Starfleet Academy. A few are wearing the purple tunic that denotes them as Academy personnel.

Just below the stage is the admissions area; a long desk sits there with multiple computer terminals as well as two or more officers. At the center position is usually found Captain Maddie Allen, the Academy Superintendent . Newly arrived Cadets report to her for training holodeck assignments, where they will undertake the final portion of their four year academy training. The Dean of Evaluations, Commander Carrs Jasal, can be counted on for assistance as needed.

There is a queue of cadets at the admissions area, awaiting their turn to accept the assignment for their final examination here at Starfleet Academy.

== Welcome to Federation Space RPG and Starfleet Academy! We're so glad you've decided to join us. 

Please make your first post below! The post should contain two things... 

First, write an in-character portion describing your character's arrival in the auditorium. They have just completed four years at Star Fleet Academy and are waiting the assignment for their final examination. They should report in to the Admissions desk to the officer on duty for their assignment. 

Secondly, you must read the Cadet Code of Conduct and the Federation Space Constitution. Include in your post an out of character statement that you have read, understood, and agree to abide by these documents. 
For example:
Cadet Davis entered the auditorium and tugged at the stiff collar of his uniform. Seeing the admissions desk and the short line of Cadets, he approached and waited to catch the eye of the officer on duty.

"Cadet Davis reporting for assignment sir!" He cringed at the volume of his own voice, hoping no one noticed the error.

Good luck and have fun! ==

[Cologero Coppola]

Walking into the room Cologero looked up to the sky for a second knowing that his Nonno was watching, he was the only one of his siblings that went into the Military. The rest were in law enforcement , a few detectives and a lawyer. Now he was here making his own path, his way of coming out of the large shadows becoming his own man. It was going to be hard, and equally exciting. With the Parron Saint Jude medalian with him, Cologero knew he could do anything. All he needed to do was keep doing everything that helped him succeed, patience and timing were two key components that aided his success. His flair in the kitchen and hospitality made him friends, it was simply an Italian thing.

Now it was time to do what he came here for, reporting for duty to tho one appeared to really Command respect and authority with grace. "Sir." With a petty thick Italian accent. "Cadet Cologero Coppola reporting for the final exam."

The day finally came when he was ready for this, ready for the final exam and the cooks could breathe easier without him there. He passed off his small garden to a newer Cadet who was really good at it, producing a lot of great crops.

[Maddie Allen]

Maddie looked to the approaching cadet as she placed her cup down. She swallowed her drink and smiled. 

"Sir. Cadet Cologero Coppola reporting for the final exam." 

"Hello Cadet Coppola," she began. "It's a great day to get the last leg of your training complete, eh?  She quickly looked down at her console, checking for the cadet's name for his exam. As she found it, she looked to the tactical cadet a moment. "Your instructor will be along shortly to meet you in holodeck one. Good luck cadet. I look forward to seeing you at graduation."

She watched the cadet as they processed the information and then left for their assignment. She then called "Next" for the next waiting cadet.

Cadet Co

[Alexander Turner]

Alexander entered the large auditorium not for the first time, but potentially for the last. Even though he had been here before, the room seemed different today. Perhaps he just felt the weight of those larger than life figures looking down upon him. Somehow it was different now that he was potentially ready to head out into the galaxy they had helped to open up and shape. Alexander paused to take in the room as well as the incredible view. Earth was not his home, but the beautiful San Francisco had been the first place he had ever set down in for so long. He would miss this place, but his feet ached for the comfort of pulsing and vibrating deck plates.

Approaching the bank of computers and Commander Allen whom was seated at them Alexander felt a pang of nerves. Luckily they were quickly overshadowed by his excitement for his final exam. Well not excitement for the exam it self, but rather for the end of a chapter of his life and the beginning of a new exciting one.

"Good morrning Commanderr Allen. Cadet Turrner reporrting for final examination."

There was a bit more purr to Alexanders voice than usual perhaps betraying a bit of his nerves and excitement.

[Maddie Allen]

"Good morning Cadet Turner," Maddie began as the engineering cadet reported in. She picked up her tea and took a small sip and then continued. "It's a wonderful day to take an exam, don't you think?"

She smiled as she looked to the cadet. She looked to her console, finding his holodeck assignment. Once she did, she looked back to him, pausing a moment in case the cadet had any other comments.

"Cadet, looks like you've been assigned to holodeck two. Your instructor should be along soon, so don't let me keep you." 

As the cadet took it in and then started to leave, she then added, "Good luck Cadet Turner. I look forward to seeing your name during graduation."

[Jade West]

Today was the actual day, and it seemed entirely surreal to Jade as she stepped into the Academy’s Auditorium, for what would be her final time as a Cadet. Perhaps it was extremely optimistic, especially when one took into consideration that the young woman hadn’t even been administered her final examination, as of yet. That wasn’t preventing the Cadet from trying to see, and plan for, the best possible outcome.

There’s really only two ways this will end. I can either make myself look like the greatest fool in all of the universe, which would result in my washing out. Or I’ll give it my all and make this exam regret ever coming face-to-face with me. Get a posting to a prestigious ship like the Enterprise, but perhaps I should keep my expectations grounded in reality. I’m sure the list of hopefuls for that kind of assignment spans several lightyears.

Jade couldn’t help but wonder if the Academy had been equipped with its very own time dilation field, as the line she’d joined seemed to be at a standstill for what felt like hours. Which would be ridiculous after all. The Academy personnel just had to make sure all the I’s were dotted, and all the T’s crossed. It was pure bureaucracy at its dullest.

The only constant in the universe.

After what felt like an exuberant amount of time, Jade finally found herself at the front of the line. She’d lost track of the time, if she’d been honest, so it could’ve easily been mere minutes that she’d been patiently waiting. Besides, it wasn’t the most important thing to worry about at the moment. Brushing part of her hair, coincidently where the purple highlights began, over her ear, she addressed the Superintendent. It was now or never.

“Cadet Jade West, reporting as ordered.”

Even though he isn’t around anymore, I wish I could say my father would be proud of me going the Starfleet way. Unfortunately, I’d be willing to bet he’d be just as indifferent if he were standing here in the flesh.

[Maddie Allen]

The next cadet approached Maddie's desk as Maddie was taking a quick sip of her chai. Maddie savored the taste of the hot apple chai for a moment, watching the security cadet come to her.

"Cadet Jade West, reporting as ordered."

Maddie smiled at the cadet while she greeted her. "Hello Cadet West. Let me find your assignment..."

Maddie looked to her console, finding the cadet's final exam assignment, and then looked back to the cadet. While she always enjoyed her job, teaching and learning from all the cadets, she always held a fondness for those who were in her area of study.

"Cadet, you're assigned to holodeck three. Your instructor will be along soon..." After pausing a moment, she continued. "Good luck Cadet. I look forward to seeing you at graduation."
