From Create Your Own Story

Ah, University! The word rings in your ears. A new life, a new world, a new adventure! You played through six years of elementary and studied through six years of junior high and high school, but now you've made it. Selecting an institution of higher learning was a long and arduous task, but at last you found one.

Fort Uranium Community College isn't big or prestigious, more of an oversized rural high school than a proper college. But the tuition was cheap (by comparison) and the degrees were recognized. Those are two very important things for a student who doesn't want to add the word 'starving' in front.

You arrived on the 4:30 AM bus from Someplace Worth Being; it saved you the cost of finding a hotel since the dorms don't open until noon today. A dozen other students did the same, but you've been ignoring them since you arrived. They seem like normal students, which means you have nothing in common with them; just like high school.

You've just finished giving yourself a quick wash-up in the bathroom sink after breakfast at the bus depot's diner. You do a quick appraisal in the mirror.

Looking back at you is:

• Pete Sebastian, nerd.
• Cassie Williams, nerdette.
