Which house of Serendipia do you belong to?

Welcome to the international magic school of Serendipia! Here, we seek to integrate our students into the realities of the modern world, a world of discovery, technology, arts and world wide communication. In this school, we believe that teaching our students about aspects of the world outside of magic is paramount to their undesrtanding of what the real world is like and how it came to be this way.

The separation between mages and non mages is closer to collapse every day. Technology develops at an awe-inspiring speed, areas of knowledge and different lifestyles grow and appear everyday outside of the isolationist bubble the magical community has built for itself and the ignorance about the realities of the world is dangerous for our future mages, not to mention that the foolish and malicious idea that there is a fundamental difference between mages and non mages is a fallacy that cannot survive in this modern, everchanging world. We seek to reduce the gap between our students and the world outside that bubble of self-righteousness.

Knowing that the "house system" that some schools around the world use foster a sense of kinship and healthy competition among students, we at Serendipia have established five houses that our students van belong to: the focused architects of Sofrosina, the hearty gardeners of Cornucopia, the brave warriors of Ares, the curious scholars of Cognito and the diverse wanderers of Penumbra. Now, let me ask you one question: what is it you seek the most?

Which of these sounds do you enjoy the most?

The cheering of a crowd at a sports event

The singing of birds on a sunny day

A quill gently writing on blank parchment

The patting of rain against my window on a stormy night

The gentle crisping of fire and the creaking of a chair as I make myself comfortable

Which is your view on teamwork?

Working with others is a nuisance. I'd rather do what I want without the opinions of others

Teamwork is practical. We each cover the others' weaknesses. It makes achieving my goals easier

I love teamwork! Nothing better than working our way through hardships together with my friends!

Teamwork is fine, as long as I don't have to make any compromises in my ideals. And, if I can be the team's leader, all the better

I'd rather work alone. Nothing against teamwork, really, but I tend to work better without the distractions of other people

Which of these color schemes appeals to you the most?

Dark, cool shades. Black, purples, greens, that sort of stuff

Warm and vibrant shades of red, orange, golden and bronze

Light and pastel colors that evoke peace. White is my favorite shade

Earthy colors and vivid greens, like a meadow of fertile soil

Deep shades of blue, like an ocean or an open sky, with sprinkles of metallic shades maybe

Which of these phrases is the most menaingfull to you?

Memento mori

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing

Cogito ergo sum

Law is the correct judgement of the state

You have lost nothing until you lose a friend

Your stance on lying?

Never! Lies are for cowards and backstabbers!

Well, sometimes it's for the better. If the others are not sharp enough to see through it...

There is always a honest way to do things. No need for lies

Lies sow mistrust and hurt feelings. I avoid it, unless it's for the good of someone I like

"Lying" and "omission" are very different things

Which of these is your greatest skill?

What kind of patronus would you like to have?

A good way to spend your free time?

Wander around, looking for secrets

Reading, maybe in the library

The sports clubs!

Just chill in the common room with my buds

Go for a stroll through the gardens

In a closed room, you see these boxes. Which one calls to you?

The small box of white marble with ornate golden filligree

The iron box, time-worn and warm to the touch

The black laquered box with carved sigils that can only be seen when looking in the right angle

The large wooden box, painted in shades of yellow, red and green , from which a fruity fragrance emerges

The transparent glass box, with closed scrolls waiting inside

Which of these statues is the most appealing to you?

A lady spreading her arms and looking skyward

A loving couple embracing each other

A group of lionesses hunting

A seamstress, weaving with a mysterious smile

An aged wise man, holding a scroll and giving a speech

A group of students is bullying a friend of yours. It doesn't look like it's gonna end well

I stand before these jerks and tell them off. You mess with my bros, you're going down!

I try to defuse the situation, trying to get everyone to chill and go their separate ways

I come to the aid of my friend with a couple buds. We're protecting'em from these idiots

I casually walk in and adress the bully chief. "You know, it would be a SHAME if anyone knew that you..."

I run to the nearest teacher to put a stop to this nonsense!

You and your pals face a hard situation and one of you has gotta do the ugly job

Let's leave it to chance. It's only fair

I volunteer. I want to spare my friends from this

I try to weasel out of it. Come on, this isn't life and death

I talk it out with them. We each say our reasons and the weakest one has to go

Let's all go at it together. It'll be over faster

Which of these routes would you prefer for a walk?

The nice and tidy path of stone, with freshly cut grass at the sides

The busy street full of people and sound

The dark and quiet path in the outskirts of town, with only the stars and the cricket's songs for company

The green road through the woods, feeling the uneven raw earth under your feet

The narrow alley through the old part of town, while browsing the stores at leisure

It's late at night. You walk alone, but you believe someone's been tailing you

I stand with my back against a wall, a hand in my wand and ready for anything

I walk faster and try to lose the stalker by turning corners at random

I look for a well lit area with people, like a store or a station

I cross the street, sure that they'll just keep going

I just keep going. No need to be afraid, I know where I am

Which of these would you spend time gazing at?

A dark sky full of stars

My family's youngest playing in the backyard

A mesmerizing bonfire

A particular work of art

A crowd of people coming and going below

You'd like to enter a certain clique, but they are giving you the cold shoulder. What do you do?

I just insist, no big deal. But if they keep rejecting me I might take offense

I'll get some more info. Maybe there is a way I could change so they can accept me or i'll realize I'm not interested at all

Well, can't force them to accept me if they are not willing to. I'll just look for friends somewhere else

I'm a friendly guy. If they don't warm up to me, well, I still have my other friends

If they've got something againste me, too bad. I ain't changing to please anyone

The Big Written Exam of Doom is upon you and you studied next to nothing. What do you do now?

Oh, gosh. I'll have to accept my painful failure and do better next time

No worries! I'll trust my gut, maybe i'll get lucky huh?

Impossible. I've studied more than enough for this. But there's always time for a last revision

Ah crud. I wonder if any of my friends could give me a crash course on this thing...

Cheat. It's just a dumb standard test. Specially if it's a subject I don't care about

Someone has wronged you badly. Do you plot revenge or what?

I go straight to them and ask in their face what is their goddamn problem. Then, we take this outside

Nah, they're not worth it. I've got my firends' support and as long as they're with me I'm fine

I'll take this to the pertinent authority so they'll face the consequences of their behaviour

Ok punk, you messed with the wrong person. I'll screw you over five times before you even realize it

Patience. Time will make them fall by themselves. Meanwhile, i'll plan for contingencies

An ice cream cone for you. What flavor?

Good old vanilla is always a fine answer

Let's go for something intense. What's your strongest sour?

Let's spoil ourselves a little. Make it chocolate sprinkled mint with a nice sauce

Hmm, i've never tried maracuyá before. Let's go with that

What's the weirdest thing on the menu? Habanero Swordfish? Hell yeah, give me that stuff!

Finally: which of these visions would you enjoy the most?

Creating a building in perfect harmony, from plaques of light and as tall as a cathedral

Wielding a sword of flame and sporting robes of gold, with the clamor of a crowd at my back

Transforming into a godly moth and ascend to wrap the moon between my wings

Dive deep into the ocean with a school of golden fish whispering a chorus of secrets around me

Soaring above an infinite emerald green forest, with golden flowers blooming and uncountable butterflies flying around me
