NEPTUNE CITY
High School of Heroes

Students and staff, welcome to Alexandria High~!

Alexandria High is one of the most energetic and prestigious high schools in the nation. It is located near the center of Neptune City, on the east coast of the United States. Everything is peaceful, and the city is full of catchy hot spots, jazz cafes, and illustrious businesses during the day. There never seems to be enough time in the day in this fast paced city. Though there are many events and activities during the day, during the night... in certain sections of the city... like a flipped switch the criminal underbelly reveals itself. Murderers, psychopaths, evil scientists, and other men with sinister smiles and greedy stares plot to prey upon the defenseless. Supplying the technology for the destruction of the city is billionaire Victor A. Masters. As he begins executing his plans for world domination, the twisted megalomaniac is eager for one thing. Super powers. As experiments and machines rise, and all hope seems lost... fate throws a curve ball smack dab into the diabolical man's plans in the form of a team of young heroes.

About Neptune City

Spoiler

Neptune City is divided into the center of the city and the four districts surrounding it. The four districts are built near the outskirts of the city. You have rich and gated community to the north. There are various expensive colleges and private schools, as well as many art museums and the enormous Nickelback Library, named after the founder. To the south, the poverty stricken slums remains barely active. Urban legends and rumors of ghosts, vampires, zombies, and other eerie 'fictional' human hunters make it far from a tourist spot. Whatever is actually happening one thing remains true... people in south Neptune frequently disappear.

The east and west outskirts of Neptune are constantly at war. There is the chaotic gang filled east Neptune, and the mafia that holds a firm grip on west Neptune. Their feud causes trouble for anyone that ventures into those areas. East Neptune is home to many wild night clubs, the water park, and the school of rowdy and violent teenagers. The school that most of the known troublemakers are sent to is called Bloomington High. It remains as fixed up as possible, due to the city and the police, but the gangs still find time and opportunities to randomly spray paint it and destroy property. The West has jazz clubs, the old drive-in, and rolling skating rink. The mob head, Alessandro, wishes to keep the olden vibe of West Neptune despite the constant push of big businesses to close it all down.

Central Neptune is also connected to Downtown. It is the economic and political masterpiece of the bustling city. Alexandria High is located there, and students come from all over just to attend. It has some of the best and brightest amongst the staff. The Mayor, B.R. Higgins, is a tough mayor that refuses to back down and let crime overrun his city. City Hall is located there, and you'll find a vibrant and massive police academy as well. Nearby it stands most of your businesses and the beautiful vast skyscrapers. There is also the Daily Times, run by Jebediah Franklin, a loud mouthed and short tempered editor. Near the northern section of Central Neptune you can find the imposing and massive skyscraper with Masters Enterprises stationed for all to see, looming over all else.

Creating Your Hero

Spoiler

You start as a novice superhero between the ages of thirteen and eighteen. You were in detention one day, in the science lab, when a chaotic explosion went off releasing a gas that smothered the students, Janitor, and the teacher assigned to watch over the class. Whether hero or villain, your origin begins here. Keep in mind, you are allowed one ability. Just one. That single ability can branch into smaller, passive abilities, but none that are additionally superhuman. It is recommended that you branch your ability into techniques, and be creative with it, rather than stockpiling them.

The Amazing Cosmo!

Civilian Identity

Name: Kevin Terrez

Age: 17

Gender: Male

Size: Medium

Personality: Cocky and charismatic. Kevin is the picture of bold and enthusiastic youth. He is take charge by nature, but lacks the wisdom to make wise choices. Still he charges ahead recklessly with full confidence in his abilities and rarely second guesses himself. His impulsiveness sometimes gets him in the type of trouble that only his cleverness can bail him out of. Deep inside Kevin is fast to make friends and wildly competitive.

Appearance:

Background: Living the chaotic life of an orphan, Kevin was the walking talking example of a 'troubled youth'. Kevin was soon found, taken in, and raised by his dear aunt Claire. Though she would not reveal to him at that time her true identity. Despite inquiring about his parents and the rest of their family, Claire would often dismiss Kevin's questions or simply distract him with entertaining activities. This left Kevin conflicted, crass, and curious about his family. Lacking a sense of belonging and purpose, Kevin still grew up with his fierce a violent streak. He would often wander and get into street fights, as his school, the one Claire demanded he attend was full of preps, wimps, and wanna be 'gangstas'.

Kevin would take off running when school ended, daily, to partake in his violent activities. Since he grew up in one of the many safe and gated communities in North Neptune City, he would venture straight to either the south side, the western area where mobsters reigned, or the dangerous eastern communities commonly ruled by various wild street gangs. He built up notoriety through randomly challenging and beating random thugs senseless. He soon built up a powerful gang with aimless teenagers, first becoming their unofficial leader, before being chosen as their actual boss. He called them, The Crimson Phoenixes. With his gang he raised hell, often clashing with the Mafia that dominated the western side of Neptune City.

Upon coming home one evening, Kevin did so to find his aunt Claire had been brutally assaulted. She'd been shot a few times and left to die. Kevin struggled to keep her blood loss under control, but in what he thought was her dying moment, she revealed to him the name of his father. Victor Masters. Kevin wasted little time calling an ambulance, and his aunt was taken in.. left in comatose state.

Kevin's life took a complete turn around. Inheriting her fortune, and with their butler Jeffery becoming his primary caretaker, Kevin began doing all he could to help those in need. At school instead of hanging with the cool kids and laughing at those being tormented he found himself defending people from bullies. Outside of school he'd get into it rival and even fellow gangsters. His own gang turned on him, beating Kevin within an inch of his life while those that still respected him kept silent during it. The police dropped the case, refusing to continue searching for his aunt's killers. Kevin knew it was due to their fear of the mafia. It was then that he began planning to become a vigilante take on the mob regardless of the consequences.

Civilian Identity

Name: Baylee Maryann Allard

Age: 17

Gender: Female

Size: 5'6" / 135 lbs

Personality: “My friends tell me that I'm abrasive and somewhat commanding. However, they also recognize me at highly disciplined, energetic, and motivated. These characteristics all combine to make somebody who will make sure the job gets done. If somebody’s in my way, I tell them to move. If they don’t move, they end up with a bloody nose. That’s not to say that I’m all about yelling and screaming and breaking noses. I try my best to help others and stick up for the outcasts. I attract a lot of these people. This is partly because I’m generally a sweet person but mostly because all the bullies are afraid of me. I mean, who wants to mess with the girl who broke Mathew Dively’s nose at the lunch table freshman year? Then there was that time when Maxwell Saunders called me a lesbian; let’s just say that he speaks a few octaves higher now. For the record, I’m not a lesbian. I’ve just never had the time to have a steady relationship with anyone. In between school and sports, I don’t have much time for boys. My friends have been trying to hook me up with somebody, but I’m not really interested. Besides, don’t people have more important things to do than stick their tongues in each other’s mouths? Both enough about that. I don't like talking about myself anyway.”

Appearance: See costume.

Background: “There’s not much to know. My mother passed away when I was young, and my father never remarried. He raised me the best way a single father could. He taught me how to pitch a tent, swing a punch, throw a ball, and everything else you'd expect a father to teach you. He also taught me the importance of discipline and explained that if I wanted to get anywhere in this world, I would have to work for it. When I entered grade school, he pushed me to join a sport. I jumped around from baseball to gymnastics to lacrosse and finally ended up at hockey. I played hockey from fifth grade onward and took up track field when I entered middle school. I did hockey during the winter and track in the spring. During the summer, I camped with my dad, and he taught me everything I needed to know about survival. By the time I entered high school, I probably knew more than most survivalists out there. That isn’t to say that I don’t find education important. When I entered grade school, my dad stressed the importance of honing both your physical and mental prowess. He explained that the body and mind were the only things that were truly yours and that nobody could take them away from me. Material things came and went, so did people. Therefore, it was important to nourish the only things I truly had in this world. When I wasn’t practicing, I was studying, and when I wasn’t practicing or studying, I was outside doing a bit of both. I'm now in my junior year of high school. I'm captain of the girl's hockey team and am currently on my way to becoming captain of the girl's track team. Although I've never had a boyfriend, I have a large circle of friends and huge following on Twitter. My friends are pushing me to at least find a date for junior prom, but I have more important things like the SATs to worry about.”

Cape Identity

Codename: Survivalist

Costume: Click me!

Power/Ability

Classification: Reactive Adaptability, or the power to instantly adapt to immediate threats or environmental hazards. It is biological in nature with the purpose of maintaining homeostasis within the body. Because of this, it is activated involuntarily whenever the body perceives a threat that will endanger its ability to function normally and cannot be consciously controlled. The most common adaptations include the ability to grow gills when thrown into water, the acquisition of night vision in dark environments, the alteration of the body’s core temperature in response to extreme cold or heat, and the immediate production of antibodies in response to infection. Other adaptations include camouflage and enhanced strength and speed. The biggest disadvantage to reactive adaptability is that it cannot respond to threats that the body does not perceive. Likewise, they cannot respond effectively to threats beyond the user’s understanding. For example, if the user perceives a threat but does not know what it is, his or her body will either adapt randomly or do nothing at all.

Power Techniques: None

Other Skills: "I am captain of the hockey team and am working to become captain of the track team. I'm trained in survival tactics and was taught to defend myself at a young age."

Civilian Identity

Name: Masaru Zimmerman

Age: 18

Gender: Male

Size: Medium

Personality: Analytical and driven. He's a very determined young man, and very rarely second guesses himself. He is also clever and innovative, and intelligent tactician, and has a keen mind. Beneath that part of himself, there is a big heart, willing to let people in and do whatever he can to help those in need. He's courageous and dynamic, and though he is slow to make friends, the few he allows himself to befriend he would treat like gold.

Appearance:

Background: Masaru was the second child born to Dwayne Zimmerman and Mika Kobayashi-Zimmerman. They already had one child, Dwayne Jr., who was a quiet and studious boy. Dwayne Jr. was a genius at anything technologically based. Masaru, on the other hand, was the gregarious and outgoing boy. Though both boys studied hard, Masaru studied harder to keep up. Whereas his brother was a bit of a recluse, Masaru was quickly drawn to sports, and made several lasting friendships in elementary school.

In middle school Masaru's already friendly character improved as he began actively participating in actual sport teams. He had a wise coach, Coach Hawk, that taught him many important things. Discipline, teamwork, and morals. The most important of all, however, was heart. It was during that period that it happened.. the most horrific thing Masaru ever experienced. During a football game, Masaru being the quarterback, witnessed a being that couldn't be described as human striking and killing many. The ones that died included Coach Hawk, his girlfriend, his best friend, and his parents. Masaru hit the stands with a harsh wallop, and fell, barely surviving. No one believed the report, and their inability to follow the bizarre attack resulted in the case being dropped.

By the time Masaru reached high school he lived with his older brother Dwayne alone, and his personality changed drastically. He was cold, focused, and isolated. While his brother went on to pursue an active career in the technological industries Masaru found himself being pressured to begin preparing for college. Lost on the road of life, and unsure of what to do with his future, Masaru got a taste of fame by preventing a robbery. He caught a bullet in the arm in the process and failed to stop the criminal that broke into the apartment, but kept him from stealing anything. He was still recognized as a hero for it, but his response to that is always, "No.. a hero would've stopped him."

Cape Identity

Codename: Zephyr

Costume: Black uniform with a short sleeved long tailed white and blue hooded cloak.

Power/Ability

Classification: Teleportation

Power Techniques: Spatial Shuffle -Masaru violently manipulates a person or object's interior with rapid teleportation, momentarily and repeatedly scattering things within it in a single excruciating moment, causing tremendous pain. He has to actually be touching the person or thing to perform this at maximum force. He can also let it linger in space/air, but only right where his hand is. He can adjust the size and force, but the larger the size the greater the fatigue it can cause.

Other Skills: Talented martial artist. He is also innovative and a talented tactician. He's good with cross word puzzles, loves game shows, chess, and strategic war games. At school is good at basketball, great at football, and secretly loves tennis and ping pong.

Spoiler

Personality:

Spoiler

Riley is a unusual individual. Just the way she looks gives off a mysterious vibe. She could be described as quiet, emotionless,and studious. Though she is capable of being sarcastic. Riley is extremely anti social and tends to be distant, but despite this she does look down on others. Due to her so called "foster parents" Riley was forced to grow up to be able to take care of her self, due to the fact her foster parents are terrible people.

Despite Riley behavior, things were not always like this. Riley used to have a regular life, filled with friends and parents who loved her. That was not long ago. So what happened?

Riley used to be home schooled but was forced to go to public school. She quickly made plenty of friends and had no problems what so ever. She made the grades but her "parents" didn't care. Soon Riley friends began to grow jealous of Riley intelligence, and began bullying her. And Riley life with her new parents grew worse. This happened towards the end of the 7th grade. Do to Riley outstanding grades she was allowed to go straight to high school. Which was bad timing because this was the point when Riley began to change. She became a loner, and looked down on people. Why should she be bullied for intelligence? Riley endured. Her absences became out of control. And her disrespect to what she called "incompetent teachers" became out of control as well? Riley grades began to go down because of her absences. Though the school had to intervene with Riley being absent and recently Riley has been forced to attend school. Today will be her first day back to school after being gone for how long? Weeks? A month? Or more? All Riley knows is...something better change...and fast.

Age: 14
Gender: Male
Appearance:

Spoiler

Personality:

Spoiler

Ryan is extremely laid back and I love to have fun!He has have a good sense a of humor. He is expressive, naive, high-spirited, enthusiastic,and loud! His mother says he has knack for getting into trouble,but trouble means adventure in his eyes. Ryan is very protective over the people he cares for. Ryan is extremely optimistic, which makes him gullible. He also enjoys attention, due to the fact he barely gets any.

Although he has lots of things on his shoulder, and lots of responsibility and stress as he is not doing well in school, he is very childish. He is a light hearted jokester and prankster, he even sometimes has the courage to prank his mother. He usually cracks a wise comment or joke at the wrong moments. Which makes other think he is immature, thickheaded, and cumbersome after first impressions.

Though he can easily win over people with his kindness, quick-thinking, and battle prowess. Though Ryan does have a serious side, he knows when its time to play games and when its time to be serious and get mad.

Background:

Spoiler

Ryan life is pretty simple, he had two parents. His dad was a police officer...and his mother was a doctor, who has a addiction to alcohol and gambling . His dad died. His mother was a kickass mom who has faith in him and always trusts him. But was still a parent and made sure he stay in line. Life was good...and simple? Sure he was sad that his father died.....and he was depressed for a month. But although Ryan may not act like it, he is smart, and knows that all this sitting around wont accomplish anything. Once him and his mother got out of the gutter and returned to there normal lives everything got better. Though I guess Ryan life isn't that normal. Who else has a grandfather who was probably one of the best martial artists in the world? And who passed on all his knowledge and skills to his daughter who so happens to be my mother. My mother taught me how to defend my self...and she didn't hold back. Without his mom Ryan wouldn't be who he is today....a care free BAMF 9th grader.

Civilian Identity

Name: Aiden Alistair Adams

Age: 16

Gender: Male

Size:

• Height: 158 Cm.
• Weight: 51 Kg.

Personality: Aiden is your everyday awkward kid, always tripping on the corridors with his own shoe laces (or just with air), knows little about reptilian zones, and sucks at starting (or having) a conversation. Basically, it's as if he had been taken away from society by mother nature, and he was now trying to re-insert himself into society again, but doesn't know the codes.

Background: Aiden was brought up by a hardware shop owner and a middle school teacher. He had always been that weird and awkward kid who didn't know how to behave with other life forms. His parents tried therapy, hypnosis, everything you could get for a reasonable fee. Since they couldn't really change him, they decided to leave him as he was. As he grew up, he started to grow fond of the tools and other artifacts his father sold in the shop. And 'sold' is in the past because he died when a shelf full of nails fell over him, when Aiden was 10. His mother decided to sell the house and now they live in an apartment in Central Neptune.
