Serpentine High School

Origin and Purpose of Serpentine

Serpentine was created as an alternative institution for students that mainstream schools are unable or unwilling to handle. This includes individuals with a history of violence, unstable behavior, involvement in illegal activities, excessive grade repetition, or simply those who don't fit into traditional environments.

Officially, the school exists to "reintegrate" these students into society, offering basic education and discipline. However, in practice, the approach is completely different.

Serpentine doesn't attempt to eliminate problematic behavior—it observes, tests, and in certain cases, even encourages conflict/fighting as a way to reveal the true nature of the students. The institution's implicit philosophy revolves around the idea that pressure, confrontation, and instability show who is truly capable of adapting, surviving, and asserting themselves.

Because of this, fights, disputes, and territorial conflicts are common within the school environment. Although formal rules exist, their application is inconsistent, and many teachers adopt a passive or even amused stance in the face of the chaos, intervening only when necessary.

The school essentially functions as an uncontrolled social ecosystem, where each student needs to find their own way to survive—whether through strength, intelligence, influence, or adaptation.

Despite this, Serpentine still maintains a functional educational structure, with competent classes, assessments, and teachers. The contrast between a formal educational system and a chaotic social environment is what defines the school's identity.

Ultimately, the Serpentine school doesn't create exemplary students—it reveals what each one truly is when placed under constant pressure.

Other Schools

Serpentine is not the only institution of its kind. There are several other experimental schools scattered throughout the country, most of them funded by BlueBird and following the same principle: receiving students considered problematic and allowing them to develop in an environment of extreme freedom.

Despite sharing this goal, no two schools are alike. Each institution has its own culture, implicit rules, groups, leaders, teachers, and way of dealing with conflict. Some value discipline, others power, while some are even more chaotic than Serpentine itself.

It is relatively common for events to occur between schools, such as visits, exchanges, tournaments, competitions, and even historical rivalries. Transfer students may also appear, bringing with them reputations, fighting styles, and histories from other institutions.

Most students know that other schools like the Serpentine exist, but rarely know the details. Information usually circulates through rumors, alumni, transfer students, or occasional clashes.

Currently, the Serpentine school remains the main focus of the story, while the other schools exist only to expand the universe and create opportunities for new characters, conflicts, and future events.

DISPLACED:

Name: Sofia Azevedo
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Height: 158cm
Nationality: Brazil
Group: Displaced persons
Appearance: Young and pretty girl, Ashy blonde curly hair, Tanned/Dark skin, simple uniform, somewhat insecure and shy demeanor.
Personality: Observant and cautious, still trying to understand her surroundings. May seem weak, but reacts unexpectedly when pressured.

Displaced: Completely varied appearance and no defined identity, ranging from ordinary and forgettable students to strange or out-of-context cases. They mainly include newcomers—anyone who has just arrived automatically falls into this category. They act neutrally or indecisively, still trying to understand the dynamics of the school, and may avoid conflict or react unpredictably when pressured. They are there for any possible reason, from the most banal to the most absurd. They interact little with fixed groups at the beginning, being ignored, tested, or used; over time, they end up being pulled into some faction… or become something unexpected within the Serpentine.

Nerds: generally thin or sloppy, with dark circles under their eyes, heavy backpacks, and strange hidden equipment. They wear glasses (sometimes broken), improvised lab coats, or clothes stained with chemicals/paint. They act in a calculating manner, avoid direct confrontation, and prefer to manipulate situations from behind, creating improvised weapons, substances, and illegal schemes within the school. They interact using other groups as "tests" or protection, mainly bullies, and tend to negotiate instead of fighting.

Bullies: physically more imposing, aggressive posture, simple clothing (tank top, sweatshirt, baggy uniform). They often bear the marks of fights and travel in groups. They act impulsively, dominate through intimidation and brute force, enjoy provoking and initiating conflicts. They interact directly: they respect strength, despise weakness, and are frequently manipulated by more intelligent groups without realizing it.

Repeaters: older (20+), tired or disheveled appearance, some with beards, tattoos, or a more adult style. They walk calmly and confidently, as if they've seen it all before. They act with experience, avoid unnecessary conflicts, but when they do get involved, they are efficient. They interact with all groups with a certain respect or disdain, know the school's systems, and are rarely caught in trouble.

Parasites: Variable appearance, but they generally stay close to someone stronger or more influential. They don't possess a strong identity of their own. They act seeking protection and advantage, avoid risks, and easily switch sides. They interact by adapting to the dominant group around them, sucking up, betraying, or disappearing when the situation worsens.

Emos/Goths: dark clothes, makeup, heavy accessories, closed or indifferent expression. Some are thin and silent, others more intense and unstable. They act introspectively, but can explode emotionally at specific moments. They interact little, but observe everything; when they come into conflict, they tend to be more dangerous than they appear.

Popular types: well-groomed, stylish, or flashy appearance, always in groups. They can range from athletic to elegant or modern. They act by controlling reputation, influence, and image within the school. They are not always the strongest, but they know who is. They interact by leading, manipulating socially, and maintaining status, often connecting different groups.

Chaotic: unpredictable appearance — mixed-up clothes, strange behavior, exaggerated expressions. They may laugh at inappropriate times or act illogically. They act without pattern, initiating conflicts for fun or irrelevant reasons. They interact by breaking all expectations, being difficult to manipulate or predict, and frequently disrupting even the predators' plans.

BlueBird (BB)

Type: Clandestine organization
Scope of work: National (with influence in various sectors)
Status: Extremely secret

Overview

BlueBird, also known simply as BB, is a clandestine organization responsible for funding and maintaining a network of experimental schools spread across the country, with Serpentine being just one of them.
Officially, these institutions exist to receive problematic students, those who have been expelled, or those considered difficult to integrate into traditional education. However, this is only the visible side.
Behind the scenes, BlueBird uses these schools as large-scale social experiments, observing how young people develop when placed in an environment with minimal intervention. Gangs, rivalries, disputes, and conflicts are seen as natural processes of adaptation, leadership, and survival.
The organization believes that society imposes artificial limitations on people and that only absolute freedom can reveal the true nature of each individual.

Philosophy:
"Society shapes people. We want to discover who they are without that shaping."

---

Influence

BlueBird possesses virtually unlimited resources and influence across various sectors of society, including politics, private companies, public institutions, and criminal organizations.
Much of his activity is illegal, but his financial power and network of contacts prevent investigations from progressing for very long.
Very few people even know that the organization exists.

Hierarchy

BlueBird uses a hierarchy inspired by a beehive and flocks of birds. Each member knows only their immediate superiors, making it virtually impossible to discover the entire structure of the organization.

Queen
Absolute leader of BlueBird. His identity is completely unknown.

Child
The group responsible for the organization's most important decisions. Only its members know the Queen.

Wings
They administer entire regions, overseeing various experimental schools.

Beaters
Combatants and field agents of BlueBird. They operate undercover, solving problems, protecting the organization's interests, and ensuring that experiments continue to function.

Observers
Responsible for recording information, monitoring students, schools and leaders, and producing regular reports.

---

Crows

"Crows" is the nickname given to the Scouts within schools.
They are experts in combat and conflict resolution. Their main function is to eliminate obstacles to BlueBird's interests, whether through intimidation, violence, or covert operations.
In addition to fighting, they can also investigate, gather information, and maintain contact with important figures in the schools.
When necessary, they can act like regular students, making it extremely difficult to identify who actually works for the organization.

Crows are classified by Rank.

Rank C: Simple missions, surveillance, and low-priority conflicts.
Rank B: Experienced agents capable of resolving most problems within schools.
Rank A: Specialists sent for sensitive infiltrations, school leaders, and high-risk situations.
Rank S: The elite of BlueBird. Extremely rare, they are only mobilized when a threat jeopardizes an entire school or the organization's own interests.

School Leaders
Every school naturally has a student recognized as its leader.
These leaders are not officially members of BlueBird and are not chosen by the organization. They earn their positions through merit, usually through strength, influence, or leadership.
BlueBird simply observes these individuals and, when it deems it advantageous, establishes contact.
While some leaders become useful allies, others are treated merely as disposable parts.

---

Objective
BlueBird doesn't aim to create heroes or villains.
She seeks to observe.
Its goal is to discover how far a person can evolve when all social barriers are removed and only their own choices determine their future.

The Serpentine functions as an unstable ecosystem where status, strength, and utility define relationships. There is no lasting peace, only moments without active conflict. Groups coexist in constant tension, and this coexistence alone generates disputes, temporary alliances, and confrontations.

INFORMAL HIERARCHY
It's not an official structure, but it's perceived by everyone:

Top: Predators and some Popular Ones
Middle: Bullies, Repeaters, and Featured Nerds
Base: Lonely Nerds, Emos, and Misfits
Variable: Parasites (dependent on who they follow) and Chaotic (outside of any pattern)

This hierarchy is unstable and changes frequently, which keeps the environment competitive and unpredictable.

NATURAL CONFLICTS
Conflicts automatically arise from differences between groups:

Bullies and nerds clash because they represent direct force versus indirect intelligence.
Predators engage in a silent struggle with each other for control and influence.
Commoners come into conflict with other groups as they try to maintain their status and image.
Chaotic individuals randomly generate conflict with any group due to their unpredictability.
Students who repeat a grade often clash with the system and other students because of their experience and attitude.
Displaced people are frequently tested by different groups, generating conflict situations.

RELATIONS OF INTEREST
Relationships within the Serpentine are based on convenience and are rarely permanent between groups.

Nerds use other groups to execute or protect their plans.
Predators manipulate and take advantage of others.
Parasites switch sides depending on what gives them an advantage.
Popular figures control reputation and influence social interactions.
Repeat offenders observe their surroundings and choose when to act.

There is no such thing as absolute loyalty, only temporary agreements.

Invisible rule:
Everything within the school revolves around imposition and force. Authority is not fixed and can be challenged at any time, provided someone has enough strength, influence, or intelligence to uphold it.

Vice-Director — Serpentine

Name: Otávio Rangel
Age: 50 years
Gender: Male
Height: 174cm
Position: Deputy Director

Personality: Rigid, direct, and constantly irritable. Unlike the principal, he tries to maintain active order, even knowing it rarely works. He lives frustrated with the environment, but continues to insist on rules, punishments, and control. He's the type who yells, threatens, and shows up at the worst moments.
Appearance and main features

Professor — Mathematics and Physics

Name: Caio Mendonça
Age: 29
Gender: Male
Height: 182
Job Title/Teaches: Mathematics and Physics

Personality (sober): Extremely rational, cold, and direct. Treats everything with pure logic, including human behavior. Doesn't waste time on emotions and corrects students without filter. Seems distant, but is highly accurate and competent.

Personality (drunk): Loose, chaotic, and unexpectedly charismatic. Speaks loudly, mixes concepts, creates absurd analogies, and conducts unpredictable classes. Even disorganized, he continues teaching—only in a completely unconventional way.

Appearance and main characteristics: Thin, usually rigid posture, simple and neat clothes when sober. When drunk, loose tie, disheveled shirt, and a more relaxed appearance. Constantly tired look.

MAIN FACTORS:

He frequently alternates between sober and drunken days, with no clear pattern.
Two extremes of behavior: absolute control vs. functional chaos.
Even when drunk, he maintains a high level of knowledge.
It analyzes situations and movements like equations.
It can predict actions based on patterns, even in altered states.
Unpredictability affects both classes and social interactions.

Story: Caio always saw the world as something logical and predictable, where everything could be calculated and avoided. This changed when he lost his wife in a car accident caused by brake failure—a simple, technical error that, in his view, was avoidable.
From then on, he lived with the idea that a small miscalculation could cost him everything. His confidence in his own logic was never the same, even though he remained extremely precise.
The drink manifests itself erratically: some days he seeks absolute control, other days he needs to escape his own mind. This creates his two versions — the cold and calculating professor, and the chaotic, unpredictable one.
Even so, he continues teaching, as if still trying to prove that understanding the world can prevent everything from going wrong again.

Attribute System — Serpentine

The Serpentine attribute system originally emerged from the Nerds, who jokingly began categorizing students, inspired by tabletop RPGs, competitive games, and internet forums. At first, almost no one took it seriously, but as the discussions and "analyses" spread throughout the school, the students themselves began to use these classifications naturally.

Over time, this became part of Serpentine culture. The attributes came to influence reputation, provocations, rivalries, and even expectations during conflicts.

The rankings are not absolute. They only represent the overall average of each group, and extreme exceptions may exist. There are always exceptions.

Attribute scale:

++++ = Extreme
+++ = Too high
++ = High

• = Above Average
  +- = normal
  Below average
  -- = Low
  --- = Very low

In rare cases, some individuals may exceed the common limit and reach ++++.

Displaced
??? (Unknown and random values)

Group Combat Style — Serpentine

Conflicts and fights are commonplace in the Serpentine, so in order for each group to survive, they had to adapt in some way.

Nerds
They rarely engage in direct combat. They prefer to use traps, improvised weapons, and equipment they create themselves, which is almost always non-lethal. They fight through planning, environmental control, and strategy. In pure physical confrontations, they are usually at a disadvantage.

Bullies
Brute force and constant pressure. They resolve everything through physical impact, intimidation, and resistance. They don't usually think much during fights, relying on aggression and physical dominance.

Predators
Technical and efficient fighters. They use speed, intelligence, and combat awareness to end conflicts quickly. They avoid wasting movement and rarely fight without an advantage.

Popular
Many have experience in more formal or elite martial arts. Their styles tend to be more refined, flashy, and visually impressive. They like to maintain composure and image even during conflicts, turning fights almost into demonstrations.

Emos/Goths
They don't often get into conflict, but when they do, they fight without regard for honor or appearance. They use unexpected objects, environments, and blows. They are emotionally unpredictable and often ignore boundaries during confrontations.

Chaotic
They fight without a fixed pattern. They mix speed, strength, improvisation, and battle intelligence in a completely erratic way. They can prolong a fight for fun or end it immediately for no apparent reason. Not even other groups can predict their actions.

Repeat offenders
Experienced and pragmatic. They possess high physical strength, but prefer to use combat reading and experience instead of impulsive aggression. They fight like people accustomed to real conflict.

Parasites
They avoid direct combat. When they fight, they use numerical advantage, distractions, or unfair methods. They take no pride in confrontation and prioritize survival above any reputation.

Displaced
Unpredictable. Because they don't yet have a defined identity within the school, they can demonstrate any fighting style, from complete inexperience to skills absurdly beyond expectations. This makes the Displaced the most difficult students to analyze.
