@Spectral Accepted, mostly that last bit was just me musing to make sure the concept could work in my head in role play terms.
@Dumb1And1Lazy Well we got our first pure physical fighter, accepted.
As for exactly where Angel City is, frankly I don't really care because it is annoying to try and find a physical location. Still, let's just assume it is somewhere in the US.
B A C K G R ✿ U N D Oh, hold on a second, she just has to post something real quick. Yeah, wait a minute - she's touching up a photo. Do you mind?! Gosh. Clover's phone is a window through which she lives her life and actually she'd rather be inside anyway. With ten thousand followers she feels like she's on the right path. Do you think she should post this? Hey, take a pic. Anyway, Clover is an active student otherwise she wouldn't have anything to blog about. The baseball uniform looks great in photos, the dance hall has the best lighting on campus and she's fluent in Mandarin... but the club doesn't know that.
Clover is caught in a bubble, her character hasn't been sculpted by the struggle and harsh reality of life. She's naive, a bit conceited and her priorities are out of order. It's unfortunate because the truth is she has a lot of potential, she has a bright spark and it's not from her phone. She isn't a bad person, not in the least - she just needs a new perspective to blossom. Clover doesn't have many friends but if she did, maybe they'd see she can be kind and reliable.
A B I L I ☂ I E S Clover can materialise thousands of emojis like a colourful avalanche of small stones. The individual emojis are weak but the sheer number she can accumulate create something powerful.
Clover summons a single emoji and can scale its size to suit its purpose. The emoji will retain the characteristics of the thing it represents, for example, the bomb emoji will explode.
Clover snaps a selfie and uploads it to social media, an incredible beam of light bursts from her phone - its power depends on how many likes her photo got but it usually incinerates everything in its path.

I'm having flashbacks to my time in Korea. A very unique power set and interesting profile that really shows off her character. So I'll say accepted.
Ok, so I should be able to get this started soon enough, I'll wait just a bit for the current people still working on character sheets.
I know it's the norm to do introduction posts but it'll take forever and people usually lose interest. I also don't think it's necessary for characterisation.
Just my opinion - we should start on a typical school day, they know they have powers and they know they're going to be involved in some sort of event but they don't know if anyone else is involved. We roleplay the day, maybe bump into each other and write about their relationship dynamics. Then the Unfair Monster arrives and they're all surprised to see each other.
If you think about it, our characters aren't gonna have a chance to really develop and get to know each other until after the first monster because they need it to tie them together. Option 2 means we get to developing faster.

Truth be told, I actually kinda like the idea of doing it that way. I can throw my vote to two if it’s something like that.

That is a good point actually, I'd like to change my choice if possible
Alright so looks like we'll go with the second option then so we'll more quickly get into the meat of the story. So everyone will be near the start of their new careers so they'll still be getting used to it. Maybe a monster or two under your belt at this point that you were able to handle yourself. Now the monsters though will get to be unfair so cooperation will soon be needed.
First IC post is up, do what you want with your characters for the first part of the morning to get started. Just a normal school day right now until the Monster Hour starts. Good chance to show off how your character is dealing with their new situation, or not as may be the case with some. Feel free to make your own teacher and student NPCs to help with your writing cause I sure as heck am not gonna make them all!
Well I'll add another post soon, see if anyone else is around and allow for some interaction, then I'll head right to the first monster and see if anyone else is awake.
