How is your character as a student? What kind of school would they attend? How would they get along with the teachers/peers?

______________________

My character would be the typical student who sits at the front of the class, gets the best grades, and loves to answer questions (Even those not directed at her.) She'd be the typical twat who'd be like:

Teacher: When was this person born?
Student: 1954
Sasha: Actually, it was April 6, 1954. [insert smug smile]

Also, she'd probably remind the teacher of homework and quizzes if it made her look better in front of everyone. As in, if she did the homework, she'd be the first to remind EVERYONE it was due. If she didn't? Well, then she'd stay quiet.

Really, she'd be hated by everyone unless they were part of her clique. Too nerdy to fit in the "cool kids" club, too stuck-up and proud to fit in the stereotypical nerd group. She'd probably ft in with the nerdy preppy kids. She'd likely go to a private school and still act like she's above others.

You're welcome to say you'd slap her.

This is actually a large part of my character's backstory. She comes from Sharlayan and was the top student in her class. She's always been the quiet type and while she wasn't openly smug about her intelligence, as you described, she does have something of a superiority complex. She is also prone to do this:

Melodia (pre-fall) would have been the class flirt, passing notes and trying to score dates with anyone she could.

Mel: "Oh...you were fun to date for a while but I've moved on."
Boy/Girl: "It's only been a week since we started dating!?"

As for school? A private school because she would love the uniform but only to wear improperly.

Graeham would likely attend some sort of sport's academy. He'd be a very driven student who wouldn't neglect his studies. Given his friendly personality he'd likely be fairly popular too - and he'd be spending a lot of his time swimming, fishing, running and climbing to maintain his physique.

Since he's very well spoken he'd perform quite well in regards to literature based studies too - but he's terrible with numbers and so math would confuse and frustrate him. Potentially to the point where he may offer to pose shirtless for whoever helped him with his math homework...

He's gotten less rebellious with age (though he still has a problem with authority) but Eddard definitely would have been a trouble maker in class. He'd be that kid that smokes cigarettes in the bathroom. He'd probably get in the occasional fight though it'd be to protect someone else from some bully or the like instead of one that he instigated himself. He wouldn't be the most popular kid but he wouldn't care either. He'd just try and pass (if just barely) while making things exciting every now and then.

Nebula already spent IC time as a student. As a Witch in Training she was sent out to learn various forms of magic, and joined the FC USH IC for that. She has since gained her fairy and progressed to practicing Witch. Her next quest is to seek out an ancient witch to teach her high order witchcraft, and so is venturing to Ishgard and beyond in search of the lost library.

Also for how I imagined it, just take a look at Little Witch Academia

And a +1 to you for mentioning what is possibly my favorite anime! That's also how I envisioned Cecilia's school days in Sharlayan!

Now we must RPz!

Eses'd be the quirky class pervert who sneaks looks up the other's skirts whenever possible, though can't handle her own composure when her poor advances are reciprocated.
Her grades would be abysmal in all but shop class, art and literature, to which only a rare few would catch a glimpse of astounding profoundness right before she decides to pull down someone's trousers, take a picture and bolt off whilst giggling like a maniac.

Glazwyb would probably be an average student in terms of grades, but only just barely. Being stubborn would cause her to probably refuse help from anyone trying to help her pick up her grades, and because of her rough appearance she'd fall into the group of people that like to extort and pick on others. 

To any of Glaz's friends it would seem she hates her situation, but she'd probably be pleased with it, as she likes feeling in power. I could see a lot of detention and yelling at teachers in her school days.

Indeed, we must!

I answer this way every time this comes up, but Virara would be a delinquent boss. You know, the sukeban look, with the long skirts and allergy mask covering her face so she's hard for witnesses to identify. She'd have few friends, but other tiny terrors would flock to her gang for protection, though Virara's doesn't do much leading. There would be a part of the scool nobody visits on lunch break that's controlled by her gang, like a storage shed or behind the gym. They'd occasionally mug others and rider around on bikes, and some might have been to juvie. Despite all of this, Virara would love and fear her mother, and be surprisingly interested in home ec. Maybe she's not so bad...

Okhi would start out doing rather poorly and wouldn't ask for help and eventually study and be up there as a top student. She would go to a common elementary school.

Edda would most certainly be The Valedictorian. You know the type, the one that the rest of the class can't imagine having a life outside of school. She gets dropped off and picked up every day in a fancy car, and rumor has it her family owns the school building itself. With that aura of near-perfection, she is rarely approached by anyone. Eats by herself at lunch, never speaks up more than necessary in class, never talks to anyone outside of group projects and sharing notes. Everyone knows who she is, yet no one knows her name. People would gossip about the infuriating ice queen perfectionist, then turn around and ask "who?" during her speech at graduation. No one would keep in contact with her after the fact, and neither would she. However, she would show up at class reunions, leading to some awkward two minute conversations.

Despite all that, at least a few choice classmates would remember her for her pathetic "performances" in PE...

Roen would be that girl who stares out the window during history lessons daydreaming. She is not a troublemaker though, and would immediately apologize if caught or asked a question that she obviously did not know the answers to since she wasn't paying attention. Book oriented studies and things that requires rote memorization, she gets bored easily, her thoughts wandering elsewhere.

She is very good at athletics, and anything that requires coordination. Sports, dancing, drawing... name it she is all over it! Also quite competitive in those things she is good at.

Roen would be either the bane or a favorite of her philosophy teacher though since she is opinionated and would be open to discussing anything. Her grades are average, good in some subjects, not so great in others.

As for friends, she is not the popular girl; she likely has some geeky friends, and she wears loose, comfortable clothing. Kind of a straight arrow though, doesn't smoke, doesn't drink nor do drugs. She also doesn't act cute or feminine around boys, so others might mistake her for not liking them at all when in truth, she is kind of awkward about that.
