I'm not sure if you know red, but there's a character sheet for this. Tbf, you've covered most of it, but you've missed a history and some other things. I'll just post it here for convenience.
Character Sheet:
Name:
Hero Name:
Rank:
Nationality:
Age:
Gender:
appearance: (Can write or find a pic. Only comic/cartoon/anime pics, no real people/actors etc)
Power:
History: (This can be as long or as short as you like, but at least give us some bare essential information. Think of it like a hero dossier/document/file bio type history I guess, or do what you find easiest)
Motivations: (A few key reasons that your character is a hero, is it power? Protection? Money? All of those things? Do they secretly want to bring the Hero Association down? What are their motivations for doing what they're doing? These will essentially be your own characters story arcs/plot points etc.)
Now, I'm fine with your character, the only thing I have a problem with is the power. Lightning is fine, and so is calling on animals to help, but I'm just not sure how they're related. What helps with OPM is that each character kind of has a gimmick. This is a world where Hero's are celebrities, so they kind of make their own brand in a way. Not all of them though tbf. But yeah, like, if you wanted to be able to turn into different animals and summon animals for aid, that'd be awesome. But I'm just not sure about pairing lightning with animals. If you really really want it, I'll let it go, but that's my two cents. Edit: Unless the lightning is coming from a gadget? if so that should be specified. Sorry if I'm coming off a little anal, but there's a point to it, trust me.
You'll start off unranked btw

I'll give it a try.
- Name: Izuma Kurosuke
- Hero Name: The Gunslinger.
- Age: 19
- Gender: Male
- Appearance: Izuma is a young man of Japanese descent, standing at the relatively tall height of 6 feet exactly. His build is rather lean and fit, with broad shoulders and nimble, calloused hands whose fingers are usually wrapped up individually in light bandages, as if to hide away scars. His eyes are an intense but cool dark gray, which can seem to turn into a lighter silver whenever his adrenaline spikes up. Izuma is a University student, and generally wears his uniform casually untucked and tie loosened, with a warm, collared gray jacket over that. His hands are usually in his coat's pockets, as well, for more reasons than his hands being cold.
- Personality: Hm...well, there are quite a few ways to describe Izuma. Cool-headed, a bit emotionally cold and distant, yet undeniably selfless, relatively unmotivated, intelligent and open-minded, yet blunt and straightforward. He can come off as rude with his honesty, but over-all, Izuma is a young man that keeps to himself and does what he needs to do to advance in life. He doesn't have any ambitions, despite being a 4.0 student and the Ace of the marksmanship team. He feels like he is drifting through life, and that pisses him off. He does have a bit of an over-protective streak, and this has made him try out for being a Hero, if only on the side, to try and help innocent people. Although it's relatively easily to get annoyed with, well, annoying people, Izuma does have a very cool mindset, and doesn't crack under pressure. He has an undeniable dry, sarcastic wit, and due to his ability to speak his mind, his sharp wit does come out on occasions, usually accompanied by a smirk.
- Equipment: One thing you should know about Izuma, is that he is an incredibly obsessive gun-nut, despite the strict laws of Japan, and he has connections to an incredibly efficient engineer/weapon's designer. Because of this, he has a wide variety of futuristic firearm weaponry on deck, and by on deck, I mean hidden on his person due to his incredible concealed-carry license, something he received when he was a little boy, by his now dead father. Pretty sure it's has some pocket-dimension technology. The weapons he has is based on where he pulls them out from. This makes him able to change weapons on the fly, and even as he slings the weapon away from himself to use the other weapon, it reappears within the spot he originally concealed it in. His 'signature' weapons:
Plasma Casters MK1 ;; Two light-weight, compact pistols made of a deep black steel alloy, with leather grips and ridges that glows a deep blue, keeping the guns from over heating. They are located within the pockets of his coat. They are semi-automatic, and each shot sends out baseball-size bolts of pure blue energy plasma, with the ability to burn through incredibly tough shells and metals, and especially monster flesh. By holding the triggers down before releasing, the Plasma Casters has the ability to charge up their bolts to give them extraordinarily more powerful damage. So far, the largest Izuma has charged the pistols, has been to the point where he sent out boulder-sized bolts, causing massive explosions that, when the dust settled, revealed two deep, very wide craters that showed signs of both melting and exploding, at the same time.
Enforcer Assault Rifle MK2 ;; An assault rifle, built from the same dark metal as the Casters, yet with a more recoil-reliant stock and grip. It is an automatic weapon, and sends out barrages of your run-of-the-mill bullets, yet the bullets are surrounded in a blue-ish glow, which both increases it's piercing power to damage monsters, and send sharp shocks with each bullet, allowing him to stunlock enemies that aren't as durable as a tank. Mostly used in tandem with other guns, in Izuma's literal gunslinging manner. It's concealed within his backpocket.
Akuma Boomstick MK3 ;; A shotgun, modeled after both the Remington and Spas. With enough stopping power to blow the skull off of a centaur, yet with relatively low range, it has to be used up-close and personal. The shells it fires is not of the normal variety, like all of his guns. The shell has built in combustible powder, which gives it a little explosion with each impact. Great for monsters.
Viper Lazer Railgun MK2 ;; A more accurate, yet incredibly deadly weapon. A semi-automatic rifle with pin-point laser technology that can pierce even the most fortified defenses, and look damn good while doing so. The weapon is built with inspiration from a rather obscure anime cartoon Izuma watched when he was little. By pulling the trigger, the weapon will send out a long, powerful, painstakingly precise beam of crimson red energy, the energy even heating up the air around the beam. The trick is, once the laser energy 'tastes' blood, it implodes much like a souped-up molotov, consuming the enemy in flames. Flames that are very much normal, so it may not do much damage to stronger monsters, other than causing them immense pain and distracting them. The loud 'ZWIP' is a bit of a negative, but it's usually used as an opening for the battle against larger, city-wide monsters. It's one of the few weapons not constantly concealed on his person. It's in his apartment room, underneath his bed. - Abilities/Skills: Well, let it be known that Izuma is a hard-worker. He, like most potential heroes, gained his powers from training day and night. In his case, he began training a little bit earlier than most. His father was a gun-nut, a professional marksman that wanted his son to be even better than he was. Because of this, he pushed Izuma a little bit too much, having him training with many types of incredibly dangerous, military-grade equipment day and night. It's a wonder the cops weren't called. This is how Izuma gained his inhuman abilities.
Incredibly accurate and precise, Izuma possesses the gaze of a hawk, or an eagle. He can 'zoom' in on a target, and even scan over their forms for critical areas or chinks in armor - and target that area with extreme prejudice. His reflexes, instincts, and hand-to-eye coordination is similarly inhuman, with Izuma being able to easily dodge high-speed attacks and react when his amazing eyes finds an opening to exploit. Firearms training wasn't the only training he did. Having kept up a similar regime among his university studying, Izuma possesses immense speed, agility, and strength. His speed and agility is higher than his strength, and this goes in accordance with his acrobatic and jumping power, which he uses in conjunction with his equipment. He has been trained in hand-to-hand combat, even though gunmanship is his speciality, and can hold his own against similarly-skilled opponents. - Brief Backstory: This will be very brief. Trained by a master marksman, he was always a prodigy in the art of accuracy and precision, and has been trained to the peak of exhaustion ever since he was only a child. This, obviously, has made him into what he is today - a bit of a freak of nature amongst the more normal human beings around him. Despite this, he has attempted to carry on a regular life, despite the fact that he was anything but normal. After hitting a funk in his young career as a university student, not knowing what to do anymore in such a boring and dreadful existence, Izuma has turned to being a hero on the side of studying. It should help get out the kinks and depression.

Name: Donny Devereaux
Hero Name: The Blade Runner
Rank: #2 C-Class
Nationality: United States of America
Age: 22
Gender: Male
appearance:
Power: A rollerskating god. He can traverse any surface while performing acrobatics and parkour. The Blade Runner is fast enough with skates to commute on freeways no problem.
History: He learned how to fight in a Nova Scotia roller derby rink. He learned how to love in a Croatian strip club. He learned how to cook in Havana, Cuba. He learned how to finally do his taxes in Denver Colorado. Donny Devearaux learned many things in his life, but rollerskating? That ability was grafted into his DNA by the polyurethane gods of the rollerblading tundra. The man with the phantom feet. The hellion of hills. The swan of the streets. His mother calls him Don-Don, but to the rest of the world he is called...The Blade Runner.
Motivations: To put his god-given talent as a rollerskating phenom to use by helping everyone in need.

Alright, my character has a solid CS, i'm putting it up for approval now.
Name: Elysia Black
Hero Name: Conduit
Rank:
Nationality: One of the Baltic Nations
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Appearance:
Power: Electrokinesis, Technokinesis, Electromagnetism Manipulation, Energy Form, Enhanced Agility, Speed, Strength and Endurance
History: A prodigious student of Physics, Elysia had a brilliant, pardon the pun, life, until a lab accident left her body essentially dead, but her mind alive. She was experimenting with quarkium at the time, in a lab at the Tokyo University. The accident, a quark-induced explosion that, strangely, left her unconscious with live wires criss-crossing her, but harming almost nothing else. When Emergency First-Responders got there, they tried to remove her from the wires, but the moment one of them touched her, they got a helluva shock. Her body was freely conducting the energies coursing through her. She woke up a couple minutes after this happened, looking around herself, she saw the extremely confused rescue workers, and then, looking down at herself, she notices the wires on her. At this point, she has sat up, but the wires that are contacted to her bare skin haven’t fallen off of her. Confused, she removes them herself, and sets them to the side. However, as she removes the final wire, she blinks for a couple moments, her eyes fading, and falls unconscious, her breathing getting ever slower. One of the faster-thinking rescue workers, who was also a fellow student of hers by the name of Darian Blitz, realized what happened and almost threw the wires back onto her. It takes a few moments, but Elysia’s breath returns to normal, and she wakes up again. “Try not to remove the wires again until we can find something that will make do, ok Elysia?” He says with a partial smile, and then says to one of the other responders, “Watashi, go find a car battery, wires and some tape.” Watashi goes to find them, still looking slightly confused as to what is going on.
Elysia turns to Darian, and asks, “The bloody hell just happened, I feel like I was kicked in the chest by a mule, and then dropped on a slab of concrete from 20 floo- Oh Newton’s Arse, my experiment!” She exclaims, as she fully comprehends more of what just happened. looking over at the lab table, the fragment of Quarkium has explosively shattered it’s tempered glass containment case, and has begun to hover a couple inches off the table, glowing and pulsing slightly, stuff that it did not do before this event. “What in the 7 hells is going on?” She wonders aloud, feeling almost pulled towards the shard. As she approaches the shard, Darian realizes what she is doing, and calls out for her to stop, but she doesn’t seem to hear him. As she nears the table, she reaches out her hand to touch the shard, and as she does, the world around her goes briefly dark, and then explodes, as the pulsing Shard almost phases into her, the burning light shooting up her arm and stopping roughly where her heart would be, as the wires fall away, looking as if they were pushed off of her. The glow dims. Only then does Elysia realize something. The noise that comes naturally from the human body, like the beating of her heart, was gone until the shard merged with her. Upon reaching this realization, she falls unconscious, and is safely transported from the building to a hospital by a very confused first-response crew.
Fast-forwarding a couple months, Elysia has recovered, but has also gained a number of remarkable abilities, and is working with Darian to both improve her grip upon herself, and to study the phenomenon that is herself. She ends up making the decision, after talking it through with her professor, one Dr. Amelia Myrn, and Darian, that she would join the Hero Association with the intent of honing herself and her abilities, and pushing herself to the utmost limit, to see where it takes her. For the purpose of science, the Engineering Department made her a super-suit of reinforced, conductive fibers, with a web of sensors woven into it, so as to gather as much data as humanly possible.
Motivations: SCIENCE!!! The money isn’t bad, either.
