The general concept for this RP is that players will be playing as teenagers enrolled to one of many academies that caters to those with supernatural and out of the ordinary abilities. However, unlike other institutions, they focus more on practical teaching and usually skip the theoretical part. Although with well respected and known staff, the school itself has no real sponsor thus monetary problems are somewhat common. To deal with this dilemma, the school actively partakes in missions to cover the amount of money they tend to spend throughout the year. Although frowned upon by many due to the dangers that come with it, students are given scholarships and in exchange for their free education and training, they are assigned to handle missions of their own.

Ability-wise, think of it as a mash-up of various shounen series. Scaling of the abilities would be done by myself to keep the balance and unlike shounen, it'll be a bit darker with death always being a possibility.

Maybe? Count me as tentatively interested; I'd like to hear more about the plot first.

So, is this done, or does anyone else want to try and start it up?

Same deal as before for me; show me a bit of background first and I might just be sold.

Okay so here's my idea
We'll start out in our own world, as ourselves. Everything is normal until these spheres start showing up out of nowhere. They'll just pop into existence and then vanish, along with whatever was locating the space. From there our characters will find ourselves in something like a hub world that's encased by a glowing wall of light(similar to the spheres) and we'll learn from someone in the city that there's no way to predict where we'll end up next so if we'll just have to walk through and keep going from world to world till we get home.

As for abilities I think, in the hub City, or world, a group will approach us and they'll be the ones who'll explain whats going on. From them we'll learn that the coins we've found in our pockets(four of them) are a specially form of currency that could be used to acquire abilities from them. So we'll get a list of abilities and be able to pick out a maximum of four. Not sure if there should be abilities that cost more than a single coin though. Anyways, don't worry about having to pick skills from a set because that's not the end. Naturally, we'll gain new powers and abilities as our characters progress through the worlds. It's just that the abilities we buy will always be with us, as the abilities to use certain powers change with the world's we find ourselves in.

Honestly, not too sure what kind of system we'd use for the other powers we'd gain from our travels so if anyone has any ideas on that share, please.

Well, you said the first time we teleported, we gained the four coins, right? Why not have it so after a teleport, you gain a coin. That was what you meant by "other abilities gained from travels," right?

Also whatever's going on here, call it a tentative interest, like Spoo.

I guess we could gain a coin after each jump, but the thing is, I kind of saw it as the coins could only be spent at a hubworld, and would be more more neutral, as far as being related to anyone world so you could use them anywhere, while I think in some worlds you'd be able to gain abilities that could work sometimes, but they'd be more specialized to your character like for example you could end up in a world similar to bleach and get a zanpakto which wouldn't be able to work everywhere, since spiritual entities don't exist in all worlds.

But we could meet the two halfway like if you don't want to start developing an ability from one of the worlds your in you could buy a skill from a hubworld, or maybe we could have our characters gain some sort of device that would always allow us to be able to make purchases the "skill set guild?"

Sorry, just left the house so I'm doing this one the phone. So if it doesn't make sense let me know.

Ah. So the world rubs off on them. That's cool. I dunno. Running my own RP at the moment and I don't want to be the one making decisions again, so whatever you or whoever else thinks is best.
