This has been bugging me for a while. I took some notes and checked the wiki and only came up with 8 boys that are definitely in poe, 15 girls and Heyoka. Is this right, or did I miss a load of guys?

Crosslisting the wiki by cottage and class I get the following list for Poe Freshmen. This doesn't include some who have been described at various times but not named. It includes only those which the wiki editors have agreed live in Poe and are in the Class of 2010.

Aggro
Flux
Gabriel
Kenny
Lancer
Michelangelo
Risk

Heyoka
Phase

Bladedancer
Bugs
Carmilla
Chaka
Feral
Fey
Generator
Punch
Riptide
Scrambler
Selkie
Shroud
Tennyo
Verdant
Vox

IIRC we have in a much later story found out that Selkie is also a freshman in Poe.

Looking at it again, it seems that there are 7 guys that are gay or bi, 7 girls that are gay or bi and about 9 shifters/changelings/intersexed/others. This seems weird from an in story point of view, but from a readers view, the changelings are the main characters. I wonder if there's a real reason for it-in story I mean

It's been pointed out, right from the beginning, that there are an unusual number of TGs in the freshman class. In fact, Ayla discusses it with Mrs. Carson when he's bribing her with an offer to expand offering to fund the expansion of Poe and Hawthorn cottages. There are other discussions of the situation as well; see The Braeburn Report as just one example.

Whoops! Slipped right past my gaze while looking at two pages, you're correct; I've updated the list to reflect this.

Good catch!

Jinn being left out is at least understandable since she doesn't take up a room.

Indeed, claiming Jade twice/Jinn was the reason for the smileys, to try to show lack of seriousness.

Triple whoopsies!

We've now reached the initial figures from the first post in this thread, presuming Phase was listed with the boys.

Any others known to be Poe Freshmen? Ideally we should include "mentioned but not named" (describe and cite). What does Welcome to Poe, etc., provide numbers wise?

Are you sure Carmilla is a girl? She looks like one at the moment, but calling a GOO a girl Neutral
Very Happy

Didn't she try take on several different shapes but find she could only take girl shape at some time? Or am I confusing her with some other character possibly in some other storyverse?

Wouldn't that limit her powers? I mean if she only relies on the lust aura for seduction her skills are going to drop one day. Even her "dad" can become a woman.

There's a thing called "default shape" -- the one she assumes when not actively trying to morph.
