Spiral Training School Information
Diarmuid's fighting/training school, Spiral, is located in a building/warehouse near to the Police Station (either behind or beside, wherever there is space once the new maps are drawn up). Most of the building will be an open training area that can be used for all kinds of weapons/hand-to-hand defense training as well has having several smaller rooms for more specialized training, since he hopes to get someone with magical talents to train those who want training in that kind of fighting as well.
All of the usual training things like punching bags and the such will be there. In addition, there will be some odd features in the training area in the form of some hanging rings, several tall poles, and balance beams. It obvious someone has a bias for acrobatic fighting styles and it's showing.
In addition to the training areas, there will be some small rooms where teachers and students can crash for the night. The rooms aren't going to be anything fancy, but they are there. Each room will contain a bed, a desk, a dresser, and some shelves. More things can be added on request, but the rooms are pretty small so there is only so much space. Diarmuid will also be building a small loft up in the corner of the building to serve as his own 'living' space. Considering how much effort he's making to fix the school up so that it will be usable by any fighter who wants to use it no matter their skill level or chosen fighting style, it is as much his home as any place else ever will be.
Despite the fact that the school is meant to teach fighting, the atmosphere is very open and relaxed. There is a bathroom with tub/shower in the back, along with a small but well stocked kitchen. And, as if to reflect it's name, most of the decorations have some kind of Celtic spiral theme to them. The walls also have several posters on them that hold information about the other training areas in the city.
3 rooms for training classes, 8 rooms to be used for people to sleep/rest in, plus the main large training area.

Yes, he is always looking for people who can teach magic. It seems like he finds people only to end up having them leave. I am quite familiar with Vergil, so I can safely say that his skills would be very welcome!
Generally, being a teacher means that the character can come and go at the school as they please. You can mention in logs he is teaching there and use the school as a setting for threads/logs etc.
If this sounds good to you, let me know! Also let me know if you have any questions. :-)
no subject
Do you think we should do a thread where these two meet and discuss the possibility of Vergil working there? I'm sure he would have been drawn to the training school more than once, whether or not he could actually train yet due to his injuries (which are clearing up enough for him to actually start using magic and stuff again).

like a huge delinquentin that capacity!Is it fair game to assume that anyone's invited to come in and work out on the punching bags and whatnot, or do they have to be an enrolled student first?

Thank you, I appreciate it!

No problem at all! If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

He'd also be interested in being taught by Diarmuid – and perhaps England.
no subject
If you would like England to teach him as well, just drop his mun a note at England's journal to set something up.
no subject
Julian would probably want to work on his swordsmanship primarily, more so than anything else. He's decent, probably better than one would expect on a first impression, but he'd appreciate a third perspective on his skills and ways to improve.
Now that I think about it, he wouldn't want to trouble England with teaching him how to use ranged weapons, seeing as he only has the miniature grenade launcher that is his uncle's revolver – it's not designed to be effective beyond point-shooting range.
no subject
There is always later to learn other ranged stuff too if you change your mind. :-)
no subject
While Julian is ambidextrous, he favours his left hand – and until he sees Diarmuid (or somebody else) using two swords at the same time in the school, he'll stick to using one himself. He does only have the one sword on him currently. Though, he might try switching which hand he's holding the blade in during a simulated fight.
I very well might change my mind later about Julian learning to use ranged weapons, we'll see. =)
no subject
Diarmuid actually dual-wields as his first choice, so it wouldn't take too long for Julian to see him practicing with or talking about using two swords or spears. Feel free to say Julian sees/hears about him dual-wielding whenever you want.
