Welcome to Millstone Academy, a prestigious, yet scandalous boarding school. Here the rich, the famous, even some commoners, come to get their education. But Millstone isn't known for just the people that attend it's Academy, it is also known for all the crimes commited here. Murders, suidicides, rapes, drug bust, robberies, and much more have occured here in Millstone. Thanks to both, paparazzi is almost always crawling about Millstone, hoping to catch that story that might pay enough for them to retire. So many secrets lay buried beneath Millstone, and everyone is determined to find them.

Apartments (3 sub-boards) The apartments in Millstone are fairly nice, having a nice amount of space within them. There are four stories. The rooms making the perimeter have small balconies, where one can relax, watch the sunset, etc. There is a swimming pool, recreational room, and gym as well for the occupants. All rooms are located inside this board. Moderators: Amerie Jakobs , Angelline Devorez
Town Houses The town houses are all two stories, but are much smaller than your normal house. They are all joined close together, but some people would prefer these over the apartments, for it is a house, and not some room within a building. The only disadvantage is they are all built the same, so they look identical. All homes are locates inside this board. Moderators: Amerie Jakobs , Angelline Devorez

Houses Scattered about Millstone are also a few houses here and there. Being home to a prestigious boarding school, the town is filled more the dormitories, apartments, and town houses, but a handful of homes can be found. They are much more original, not looking identical, nor are they joined together. They are spaced out, sizes vary, but they cost much more then the apartments, or town houses. All houses are found inside this board. Moderators: Amerie Jakobs , Angelline Devorez

Dormitories
Layton House (6 sub-boards) This is one of the girl's dorms. It is the first how on the left, the west wing, when you make your way out back of the academy. The four dorms basically envelope the back of the school. This dorm has a bit of a victorian feel to it, slightly run down. The stairs quick, the lounge is smaller, and the only heat given is by the furnace and fireplace in the lounge, if you could even call it a lounge. As for air conditioning, it's unknown. There are 2-4 girls per room, and your roommates are chosen at random. Don't expect to be bunking with your friends. Moderators: Amerie Jakobs , Angelline Devorez

Balore House (4 sub-boards) The Balore house is for the more rich of the girls, but the leader has been known to select girls below her status. Though don't expect to get in easy. The only way to make it in, is to do whatever the Balore girls' want, survive the tricks and cons, and prove yourself worthy to be a Balore girl. There are 2 to a room. This dorm is equipped with a heater, and a/c. The rooms are large and spacious, with good furniture. The place is high maintenance, it's no wonder why everyone wants in. It is located beside the Layton house in the west wing. Moderators: Amerie Jakobs , Angelline Devorez

Gregor House (3 sub-boards) The Gregor house is one of the boys' dorms. It is the first house on the right side, the east wing, and is closest to the school. It is the less fancier of the two, holding more 'commoners' than rich kids. It is much like the Layton House, being a bit run down, and beginning to age. There are 2-4 boys per room, and same here, your roommates are chosen at random. There is no telling who you will get to be bunking with. Moderators: Amerie Jakobs , Angelline Devorez

Prestin House This is another boys' dorm, but the more rich, higher classed boys are housed here. It it located next to the Gregor house, in the east wing. Their rooms are much nicer, bigger and cozier. There are two boys assigned to each room. It is basically the same as the Balore house, but, instead of being chosen, if you fit the requirements, you automatically have an invitation in. Moderators: Amerie Jakobs , Angelline Devorez

Trapped on Campus
The Headmaster's Office The Headmaster's office is quite large. One would come here to sign up to apply for the Academy. Other reasons would be to talk with the Headmaster, whether one was in trouble or not. Moderators: Amerie Jakobs , Angelline Devorez

Classrooms All class take place here. They are quite spacious and rather fancy. For being one of the top boarding schools, it does live up to its expectations. There are large windows, white boards or black boards depending on the classroom, and stands formed in a half circle about the teacher's desk. with five levels all together. The students' desks are all joined together, forming that of a countertop, with seperate, cushioned chairs. Moderators: Amerie Jakobs , Angelline Devorez

Hallways Lockers line the hallways, painted white and dark blue to support school colors. The Millstone Falcons' emblem is placed in the floor of each hallway, and banners, poster, and all sorts of announcements are always placed on the walls. Since the school is so big, there are a lot of halls, and one can get lost if they don't pay attention to where they're going. Moderators: Amerie Jakobs , Angelline Devorez
Campus Square (2 sub-boards) Within the school is the Campus Square. It is surrounded by the building of the Academy, but it is one of the more, peaceful, relaxing places on campus. It is quite big, covered by soft green grass, and a few trees here or there. Some picnic tables are scattered about, along with a few benches for students to rest.
The Library Hundreds of shelves are filled completely full with books. The library is a reader's heaven, no doubt. Many tables are placed about the building, and a large computer lab is located toward the back, all on the first floor. The building is three stories altogether. In the center of the building are a flight of stairs, zig-zagging their way to the top. Books line the entire walls of the building. Any type of book can be found here, whether for research or entertainment purposes. Moderators: Amerie Jakobs , Angelline Devorez
The Cafeteria The school is rather old fashioned in their ways, so the cafeteria almost has a victorian look to it. The tables are halfway decent, the lunch ladies are nice, and the food is more then edible. The school tries to keep their students healthy, so the food is much better then most schools. It is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Moderators: Amerie Jakobs , Angelline Devorez
The Gym (1 sub-board) All P.E. class occur here, along with basketball practice and home games. When the weather is bad, cheerleading practice also takes place here. The gym is rather large. The floors are a light tan, and the school's emblem is placed within it in the center of the gym. There are bleachers lined up at both sides of the court. They are plastic, and colored white and dark blue, supposting the school colors, like most of the school.
The Auditorium All big events are held here in the auditorium. Students will gather here for assemblies. Graduations also occur here. Other things for entertainment purposes, such as concerts, or even plays are also take place here.
The Fields (4 sub-boards) Wanting to attend one of the football games? Perhaps a soccer game? This would be your place to come. The are some bleachers placed about both fields for spectators. This is also where all football, soccer, and cheer practice takes place.
Sub-boards:
- The Locker Rooms - The Track - The Football Field - The Soccer Field
Millstone Chapel (1 sub-board) For all the sins made in this town, this Chapel is almost a must. The Millstone Cemetery lay just behind the rather old building. It is closed in by a rusting cast-iron fence and gate, resembling more of a prison than a place for the dead to rest in peace.
Lladaway Park Lladaway Park was named after one of Millstone's late mayors. His cause of death was unknown, yet another scandal of the town. The town decided to honor his name, in a way, by naming the park after him. Parents, both young and old, bring their kids here to play, teens hang out, adults relax, whatever one wishes. Moderators: Amerie Jakobs , Angelline Devorez
Millstone Complex Millstone Complex is the town's local mall. But for a small town, the mall is quite large. There are many clothing stores, along with a Pet Shop, Tattoo and Piercing Parlor, Food court, Starbucks, shoe stores, pretty much anything. A girl can go wild here. Moderators: Amerie Jakobs , Angelline Devorez
Millstone Studios Here is where many of the musical celebrities can come to record. It was built especially for them, so they wouldn't be have the problem of leaving to get a track down. They can do it right here in town. The studios also offer lessons to those who wish to make it big. They can learn how to perfect any talent they may have, if they have talent at all. Moderators: Amerie Jakobs , Angelline Devorez
The Hampton The Hampton is a four-star hotel, which is almost surprising for the fact that Millstone is rather small, and with all the chaos occuring. It is a great place to escape, to meet up with people, or just to stay for the night. It is only 8 stories, campared to the average 14. It is probably one of the tallest building one would find in Millstone. The rooms are nice and well-kept, along with the rest of the bulding. Moderators: Amerie Jakobs , Angelline Devorez

Sage Springs (3 sub-boards) Need a place to relax? Take a swim? Get a massage or facial? Well here's your place. Sage Springs is the local spa, where all the celebrities can go to get pampered. THough not just celebrities can come here. The spa is open to anyone who wants to come. It is definitely one of the more fancy places in Millstone.
Cosmos Cafe' Cosmos is a very hip, modern day cafe. The setting is relaxing, with dimmed lights, and the aroma of coffee plagueing the room. There is a fairly large stage placed toward the back of the room, where hired acts, consisting primarily of poets, singers, and bands, can be heard. Every now and then, to get more business, there are Open Mic nights, for which one can come and read aloud the deep words with in their souls, or sing their heart out. It's a good hang out place. Moderators: Amerie Jakobs , Angelline Devorez
Club Pleasure This club lives up to its name. Club Pleasure is one of the more 'exciting' places of the town. It is a more or less extravagent strip club. One must be over 21 to enter, but fake ID's have passed through more then once. Moderators: Amerie Jakobs , Angelline Devorez

Rebellion Rebellion is a quite popular night club, open to teens 16 and older. There is a bar, but alcohol is only served to one 21 years or older, though many find ways to get around that. There are different colored wristbands given out for bartenders to know who to serve and who to not. Green are given to those 21 and older, orange is given to those who are minors. There is also a DJ, and a rather large dancefloor, which almost always crowded. Moderators: Amerie Jakobs , Angelline Devorez

Millstone Police Department With all the crimes and scandals occuring with in Millstone, there has to be someone to stand firm with the law. The place is always busy, with all the constant havoc being caused around Millstone. Here everything occurs in a blur as everyone rushes and stresses to get things done, to catch a criminal before it's too late, too solve a case that keeps dragging on, etc.
The Alleyways As with any town or city, there are always dark alleyways. Although the town has held scandals everywhere, the alleyways still prove to be one he more dangerous places. Many drug deals are made here, but with that comes territory, such as the violence, the addicts, and everything else you can think of. Here drug busts have occured, along with murders, rapes, etc. It's not a place to mess with. Moderators: Amerie Jakobs , Angelline Devorez
The Old Mill This mill used to be the main income of Millstone a few decades ago. Nut then something happened, and times began to change. Millstone made a turn for the better as the Academy started up, but it also made a turn for the worse. The mill became no longer needed, and maintenance was soon forgotten. No sooner, the mill was then shut down, left to rot. Throughout time, it began to erode, but the process was only spead up by vandalism. Now all that's left is its ruins, though some parts of the mill are still accessible. Moderators: Amerie Jakobs , Angelline Devorez
