Once in a blue moon, i come up with the greatest ideas
Black Sage is my idea of a manga series burrowing elements taken from Fruits Basket, X-men (unintentionally) and other anime/manga/tv/movies i've seen, and some real-world references in my life. And is set in my fictional 21st century country: Portland
<More coming soon>

Can you elaborate more on your manga series? I feel that I might want to read it, if I knew what it was about, that is. I like Fruits Basket and X-Men. What exactly did you have in mind that combines elements from them?

Well I said it was a bit of wishful thinking on my part. I'd like to get into detail, but typing this stuff up on a mobile phone is slow and painful. My thumb has now gone flat. Wait until I get my hands on a computer.

Well, I got it back, but someone lost the wireless thingy, so I have no net. I could use this, but my computer has a habit of chewing up more data than it needs, how dare it try to get 300mb of updates?!

That does indeed suck. I really hate it when that happens. What type of operating system do you use?

Well, my thumb might as well die, coz i'm going to start elaborating. It's the best thing for me to do at 10pm, thank god for predictive text.
The story follows the life of Melissa McNaugh, a teenager who lives alone in the suburb of Knoxford. Somewhat disorganised, if not a little stupid, she is constantly tardy at school, garnering a reputation for filling up an entire record book for late passes. A new student moves into her class, a white-haired boy named Richard Harper. Richard isn't someone who likes company, and rejected everyone's attempts to befriend him, even Melissa's. However, without a sense of direction, he accepts Melissa's friendship, and tells her the reason for the way he acted was to protect a secret, one he didn't even tell her.
Now the actual plot, Richard and his family have ties to what used to be known as Black Sage Magic, a medieval dark art which was practiceable by normal humans who asked for it by the power of High Sages. The humans became known as demons: in exchange for such power, their hearts were bound to it permanently. Part of the process is a contract set up by a contractor, which outlines the demon's freedoms, and their obligations. Richard is a demon of ice, he has the ability to create ice, which can be used in light amounts to cool something down, or freeze it solid. Being as such, he is immune to extreme cold, but despises the heat. He is in constant fights with his cousin, Ashley, who is the demon of fire. Ash can create and manipulate fire in the same way that Richard does with ice. He is immune to fire, but hates the extreme cold. Both Ash and Richard live with their older cousin Paul, the demon of Earth, who can create plantlife to freshen the air, or vines to restrain enemies. During the course of the story, more will be learnt about the curse, and other demon types, and the rest of Portland.
Characters: *Melissa McNaugh: the main character, becomes the demon of lightning after an incident at the Harper household. *Richard Harper: demon of ice *Ashley "Ash" Harper: demon of fire Paul Harper: Ash and Richards playfully manipulative cousin, the demon of earth *Haruka and Sakura Shiichi: Twins with an extremely close (and scarily unnatural) bond, friends of Melissa *Emma Bergen: one of Melissa's best friends from Germany. *(EDIT)Mr. McGrady and Ms. Demiccoli: homeroom teachers of class 10E, Melissa's, Richard's, Haruka's, Sakura's and Emma's homeroom. *Donald Bradford: the last High Sage left, thought to have been executed in medieval times during the extermination of the Black Sage, wants to relive the past and his dream by bringing it into the present. The Harper trio's uncle, and master (he had them manifest a Sage Spell while they were unborn).
Well, my thumb is hurting. That's all I'll let out before I've said too much.

Note, names of things may change, but i believe i'm sticking with the characters. There are, obviously, more i have, but describing them now would probably spoil the whole thing

If i can't draw it, maybe i'll write it first when I get the chance, then wait for someone to ask me if they can manga-ise it

I'm agreeing with Cassie on this one Darren. I reckon it would look very impressive as a manga that people can watch. As for the drawing, do art or get some who you know can draw to do it.

Slight Edit, There are now 2 homeroom teachers (like at my school) Mr. McGrady and Ms. Demiccoli (an actual teacher at my school, i hope that's how her name is spelt)
Ms. Demiccoli's name is a pun on Mr. McGrady (listen, it sounds like Mr. Macaulay) I like Ms. Demiccoli (the one at my school), she looks like my ste aunt and has a good sense of humour. She goes good with all the students coz she's young at heart
