[OOC] Your Hero Academia!

[Lmpkio]

@Rune_Alchemist If she wants to be a total bitch she can just try and annoy him lol

Can't say that would end too well for her in the long run XP

[DELETED7282737]

Will hopefully be able to get a backstory up tommorow

Akira Hidori

[Gender]

Female

[AGE]

15

[PERSONALITY]

Akira is very joyful and always seems to be quite happy around others. She is however scared to approach others. So she doesn’t have much friends but when she is a little closer to someone she tends to hang out with them more instead of others she doesn’t know well yet. She is very flirty and has a perverted way of thinking but is generally a very nice girl and does get embarrassed about certain things.

[BACKSTORY]

[QUIRK]

A free soul - She is able to separate her soul from her body. When she does her body will fall into a deep sleep and be in a sort of standby mode. Her soul appears like a ghost version of herself that everyone is able to see. She can possess objects and or humans as long as they don't resist. She can go to any wall and fly around just like any ghost can.

[SKILLS AND TECHNIQUES]

Possession - She can possess objects that her quirk can handle at the moment so as she progresses she will be able to possess bigger objects. She can also possess human beings. Animals are easier to possess then humans. Humans are harder to possess and will mostly only work when they don't mind to be possessed. When she is able to possess a human their eye color will change towards hers. She can also sub possess someone which means she just sits in their body and talk to their mind.
Intangibility - She can't be touched in her ghost form.
Telekinesis - She can let objects float from a short distance.

[LIMITS]

Vulnerable - She can't control her own body when she is in ghost form so anyone would be able to do something to her.
Untouchable - Apart from possessing objects she can't touch anyone and they can't touch her either.

[Zeroth]

@liferusherI'm going to have to say no to Molecular Manipulation, sorry, as that's far too generalized and potentially overpowered an ability. Also, we already have a teleporter character.

[Great Sogeking]

HUP, HERE WE GO. It... Took me less time to draw that picture than it did to figure out her character, but I got it done at least.

Nina Aiza

[NAME]

Nina Aiza

[GENDER]

Female

[AGE]

15

[APPEARANCE]

Nina stands at 5’6’’ with a fit build and noticeable muscles in her arms. She keeps her mid-length hair tied back whenever she can. She typically doesn’t wear her jacket, and keeps it tied around her waist. Her normal attire consists of sleeveless shirts (since sleeves can get in the way of her Quirk), basketball shorts, and sneakers.

[PERSONALITY]

Nina, at first glance, appears to be a quiet and disinterested person that usually only pipes up to wisecrack at people. She actually just tends to keep to herself unless she’s with people she considers friends. She’s still seems a little disinterested when it comes to her friends, but she becomes much friendlier and a bit more aggressive.

When she’s with her friends, Nina is the aggressive kind of friend that expresses affection in the form of tight bear hugs and handshakes, harder than necessary high fives, and arm punches. She also has a tendency to try and push her friends into doing what she would prefer to do, but she’s aware of it and exercises restraint in that regard. She’s honestly a good person at heart, so she’d rather have fun than cause arguments.

That being said, getting into an argument with her is the last thing you’d want to do. Getting her riled up is a sure-fire way to see fists flying, and it’s not too hard to make her tip over the boiling point. She can forgive things like people bumping into her or stepping on the back of her shoes; so long as it’s all an accident she doesn’t mind. The two things that make Nina the most annoyed are when people intentionally screw with her, or keep push a joke past its funny point. Depending on her mood, her reactions can range from passive-aggressive threats, to full-on threats, to “not even bothering with threats and punching straight to the point.”

But again, at the end of the day she’s honestly a good person at heart. She’d rather cause more resolution than conflict, and tries to not hold grudges over anything. If anyone’s uncomfortable with her she’ll back off in a flash. If anyone else is making someone comfortable, however, she’s loaded with enough reckless courage to back right in and get them to shove off.

[BACKSTORY]

Nina grew up in an apartment complex with her father, a former boxer and current radio personality; her mother, the Hero “Dune Arms”; and a great number of neighbors that were effectively her second family. Her parents were frequently out from her life thanks to their jobs, so that’s how she came to embrace her neighbors as family. Her aggressive tendencies and desire to sway things her way comes from all of the neighbor’s kids she’d play with.

Her desire to be more of a conflict resolver than a source of conflict stems from an incident when she was 8. At the time, she and her closest friend were having a long series of arguments over what to play and ultimately decided to settle it by arm wrestling. She couldn’t win in a contest of pure strength, however, and resorted to using her Quirk to give herself an edge, or at the very least force him to tap. The end result of squeezing a kid’s hand and locking it in place with a literal rock grip permanently injured it.

Nina doesn’t look back on that memory fondly.

Her drive to heroics and her restraint from having things her way also stem from this incident. She never wants to see things escalate that far due to a selfish whim again, and the subsequent lecture she received from her parents strengthened this point of view. It taught her about Quirk responsibility, and how one wrong move could land someone in the hospital or worse. To keep anyone from misusing their Quirk or worse, she made it her career goal to become a Hero.

In the present day, her parents are still working the same jobs as before. Whenever her father could, he’d take her to the gym to learn boxing so she had a means to defend herself as a Hero. Her mother fully supports her career choice and even intends to take her on as a sidekick following graduation. As for her friend he’s… Doing better. His hand never healed correctly, but they’ve since buried the hatchet and moved on from the incident.

[QUIRK]

Sand Stone - Nina’s quirk is a combination of her mother’s ability to turn her arms into sand, and her father’s ability to turn his arms into granite. The resulting combination lets her turn her right arm into granite and her left arm into sand. Her Quirk starts from her shoulders and can be activated along any part of her arm. Her sand arm is as consistent as you’d expect sand to be, but she’s in full control of the various shapes it can take. Her sand arm can also extend exactly two arm lengths further from her body. By contrast, her granite arm freezes its position when its active, effectively making her arm into a statue.

[SKILLS AND TECHNIQUES]

Sand Whip - Nina’s most common application of her sand arm is to just turn into a flexible whip. Good for actual whipping, or for mobility purposes.

Sand Bind - The second most common application of her sand arm is to use it to wrap around people. It’s not a very long range skill, but she thinks it’s good enough as is.

Granite Punch - It’s just any kind of punch with her arm turned to granite, but she likes to believe it sounds stronger if she puts a name to it.

Basic Boxing - Nina understands basic boxing form and has more than a few tricks up her sleeve. Her style is more like a slugger.

[LIMITS]

Un-interchangeable - Nina’s arms are locked into what they can turn into. There’s no half and half granite and sand on one arm, it’s only her right arm that turns granite, and it’s only her left arm that turns into sand.

Literally Broken Limbs - Nina’s arms are capable of being broken, shattered, split off and so on. The damage reflects back on her real arms, so if for example her granite arm was completely broken off… Bye bye arm. She can grow it back by ingesting sand/granite that matches her arm’s original weight, but that’s as comfortable to do as it sounds.

[Krayzikk]

So, finally have my character concept in mind. Should be done by morning, and posted by the afternoon. But just to make sure I don't make an error anywhere, where is the school supposed to be located? My assumption is Japan, but I just wanted to make sure I checked.

[DELETED7282737]

@liferusherI'm going to have to say no to Molecular Manipulation, sorry, as that's far too generalized and potentially overpowered an ability. Also, we already have a teleporter character.

@Zeroth

Aw okay. Any good ideas?

[Zeroth]

@Great SogekingAccepted, and within her limitations the specifics you described about her quirk are fine!

@KrayzikkYes, the school is in Japan, although I haven't really decided where geographically. Probably somewhere near Tokyo or something since it's divided into so many sub-cities.

@liferusherNo one's really gone with the "pure elemental" abilities like fire, water, wind, electricity, etc yet (although we do have a couple of "stone" themed characters now so earth might not be a good choice). You could also use the Superpower Wiki and just browse or hit the Random Page button until you found something you liked. Are there any specific themes or ideas that you wanted your character to be able to do with the Molecular Manipulation that could be whittled down to a more specific power?

[Krayzikk]

That's what I figured. I appreciate the answer.

My CS should be done by the end of this evening, and I will have it posted as soon as it has been proofread for errors.

[Matsuri]

Almost done with my character. Just have to get the backstory written up and it should be finished.

[Krayzikk]

Finally finished. I have not actually watched the show, so if something does not work, I apologize. I am happy to correct things that need correcting.

Yasumine Kazu

Kazu

[NAME]

安峰 運 (Yasumine Kazu)

[GENDER]

Female

[AGE]

17

[APPEARANCE]

Kazu

Kazu tends to dress in nice, albeit functional, clothes. No dresses or skirts for her, if she can absolutely help it. No heels either. None of them are helpful at all when running at high speeds. She tends to carry, and wear, a pair of dark sunglasses to protect her eyes from unexpected light or detritus when moving at high speeds.

[PERSONALITY]

Quite friendly, and always willing to help, Kazu is nonetheless a little self-conscious. Her parents’ reputation back home casts, in her eyes, a rather large shadow. Despite taking after her mother with regards to her Quirk she feels inferior. Her body’s limitations grate on her pride, compelling her to work harder and harder to compensate for her perceived failings. In the back of her mind she fears that her body will never actually become strong enough for her to use her speed without limits, forcing her to stay in her parents’ shadow forever. She doesn’t let anyone in on this doubt, and she might not even admit it to herself, but it remains a driving force behind her behavior.

To everyone else she just seems friendly, if a little ambitious. Her naturally accelerated processing of stimuli sometimes leads her to speak or act quickly, without realizing that her peers aren’t necessary keeping up with her. This doesn’t change that she is a generally likable individual, and not one to go poking sleeping bears so to speak. The major exception is for arrogance. Kazu is painfully aware that the metaphorical lottery of Quirks is not a fair one, and she feels strongly that lucking out and receiving a powerful Quirk does not give someone the right to feel superior. Not to fellow Quirks, and certainly not to those unlucky enough to be born without. This isn’t usually an issue, but Kazu will get very angry very quickly if presented with such behavior.

[BACKSTORY]

Kazu’s parents, a speedster and a kineticist respectively, were rather famous local Pro Heroes. Not nationally or anything of the sort, but in her home region they were well-known and beloved. It was never spoken but there was an air of expectation, that the offspring of two reasonably powerful Quirks from capable heroes would lead to a child that could match or surpass them. Her birth was met with lots of celebration from the Yasumine family, and an eagerness as to what Quirk she would develop. When a four year old Kazu ran after her mother on her way to work, and actually kept up with her, her parents were ecstatic. Even if her Dad was disappointed that he lost the bet on which she’d take after more. For the first few weeks everything went fantastically. Her grandparents were already experienced in dealing with a super-fast toddler, so updating the home’s babyproofing to account for it wasn’t difficult. Her birthday was themed after all the greatest speed-based Pro Heroes. It wasn’t until a month or two later that the problems manifested.

Kazu would accelerate unexpectedly, something that was clearly a surprise to her as much as anyone else. She would run into things (though thankfully she wasn’t very good at high speeds, or there would have been much more immediate problems) and show discomfort, if not pain, when moving after using her Quirk. So they took her to the doctor, and learned the bad news. Kazu’s Quirk wasn’t something her body could handle yet. She would eventually grow into it, so to speak, as her muscles grew and toughened alongside her bones but for the moment it was incredibly hazardous to her health. It could go awry in any number of ways, potentially causing permanent damage.

Her parents were desperate for a solution, but an old family friend was quick to come forward. He had been born with a Hyperintelligence Quirk, one he used to make great strides in biotechnology and create a prominent, profitable company. He suggested, since she would grow into it gradually, that it might be possible to limit her in such a way that she could safely grow into her ability. An intelligent neural implant, something that could regulate the amount of energy she could pump into her speed. In the meantime Kazu was fitted with custom weights to ensure that she couldn’t accelerate to dangerous speeds unexpectedly. The neural net was completed in a matter of weeks, and implanted into Kazu’s central and peripheral nervous system in a twelve hour surgery.

It worked, but for the majority of her early childhood Kazu’s speed was hamstrung. Her mother focused on training her to control it, to ensure that as more speed was permitted to her she could handle the increase in her capability. She learned, as a result, very refined technical control over her Quirk to compensate for her lack of potency.

But the expectations she had been blissfully unaware of as a young child kept becoming more apparent. The disappointment in her family, even if her parents worked exceptionally hard to mask it, and the barely concealed exasperation from the people who had expected so much. It was the worst from her peers. Kids who had no way of understanding the finer points of the situation, and just knew that the great Yasumines had produced a weakling.

Kazu would be the last person to admit it, but the experiences shaped her development. They made her work harder. Hold herself to a higher standard. Instilled her with a great hatred for arrogance. The same man who made her neural network, at her request, fashioned her a custom set of weights for her 10th birthday; weights that greatly increased the resistance when she ran, helping her develop her muscles and bones faster. Anything to accelerate her development. Every year she would request a new set, scaled to her current abilities. The contempt she felt towards her abilities fueled a conviction that she would prove them wrong, that she would be the best Hero she could possibly be.

Here and now, that hasn’t changed. Kazu is still striving to be stronger, faster, and better than she was before. Better than they believed she could be.

[QUIRK]

Redline - verb: drive with a car engine at or above its maximum rated RPM. The daughter of a speedster and a kineticist, Kazu’s Quirk essentially uses the fundamentals of the former to accomplish the latter. Her muscles are constantly in a state of motion, even on a very low level, generating incredible amounts of excess energy that her muscles are uniquely able to store. She channels this additional kinetic energy into her muscles, vastly increasing the force exerted with each movement and the rate at which those movements occur. Oddly the friction generated by her power at high speeds tends to shift her overall appearance into the red spectrum, with intensity of the shift scaling according to her speed. In short, Kazu can move at extremely high speeds. Or rather, both she and her parents wish that was all there was to be said.

Unlike most speedsters, Kazu’s body could not handle the extreme forces her particular variation on speed exerted. Her Quirk is always on, to some extent, and young Kazu could neither adequately control it nor sustain the stresses it put upon her body. She would try to run normally and accelerate uncontrollably, often into objects, and the very act of acceleration would tear her muscles and stress (if not fracture) her bones. The Yasumines took her to a doctor, someone who specialized in understanding Quirks; they received good news as well as bad news. The good news was that her body’s inability to cope with the effects of her power was temporary. She would, in time, be able to cope with the stresses just like her mother’s body did. But that capacity was developing at a much slower rate than the capacity of her Quirk. Kazu needed time, both to learn how to control it and for her body to be able to cope with the strain.

Unfortunately she wouldn’t get either in her current state. Not when she could accidentally accelerate to unsafe velocities, potentially with great harm to herself. So her parents called in a favor with an old family friend, a hyperintelligent inventor in the field of biotechnology. He designed and implanted a smart neural network wired into Kazu’s nervous system; it constantly assessed the degree of stress that her skeletal and muscular systems could handle, and blocked her from pushing any more energy into her muscles than that. It was a safeguard that the human body performs naturally, preventing the use of 100% of a muscle’s potential, but on a grander and more adaptive scale.

Like the body’s natural safeguards, the neural network set limits. Four, to be precise. Anything under the first one it designated as ‘safe’. The range of use that Kazu is permitted. Beyond that is yellow, designated by another limit. The region wherein the body starts to cause harm, but only mildly; the sort of overexertion that can be forced for brief amounts of time. At this point the network starts to limit how much stress she can put on her body. The last two limits, orange and red, are what the network is designed to prevent her from reaching. It is within those ranges that she will start to cause serious harm to herself, and thus, the network will not let her attain. The lowest limiters can be consciously disabled, as a personal safety measure, but this is done with the potential for significant risk to her health. She hypothesizes that they might be overridden, but given that they’re there for her safety, she hasn’t dared to try

The network was designed to grow with her, and at this point is integrated so tightly into her natural nervous system that removal is impossible. It serves, in this way, to bolster her nervous system to ensure that she can process the stimuli she experiences at high speeds. It constantly adjusts its parameters as she grows stronger and older, and will eventually disengage its limits completely once her body can handle her power at full force.

[SKILLS AND TECHNIQUES]

Formation 91 - With a little fine tuning, Kazu has adapted a technique of her mother’s for her own use. At the right speeds, and the right angle of movement, Kazu exploits the delay in the mind’s perception to seem like she is leaving after-images; like while she’s in motion there are more than one of her. With the current limitations on her speed, she can’t manage this for very long but the momentary confusion is easy to take advantage of.

School of the Undefeated of the East - A name cheekily invented by her Dad, Kazu learned rudimentary hand to hand combat from her father. She wouldn’t win any prizes for form, but a hail of blows coming at superspeed will really put a damper on your day. Though her Quirk does not afford her any enhanced strength, its very nature lends her movements much more force. In short, a punch at superspeed is going to hit much, much harder than you would expect from someone with her strength.

Three Times The Speed Of The Others - As a side effect of both her Quirk and the neural network, Kazu can take in and process stimuli far faster than non-speedsters. Without this capability operation at superspeeds would not be possible, but it carries over into the rest of her life.

Trapped By Earth’s Gravity - Kazu wears custom weights on her body, designed to act as a sort of extreme resistance training. As a result of this Kazu is rather fit, even without her power, and has a second wind of speed so to speak if she drops the weights that hinder her movement.

[LIMITS]

Speed Limit - The neural network limits Kazu’s speed to what she can safely operate at, barring extenuating circumstances. Though she is still fast, incredibly so, her full potential is locked down for her safety.

Breakdown - If Kazu exceeds her limits by too much for too long, she will literally tear her own muscles apart and fracture her bones. The limits are put in place for her own safety, and purposefully trying to push past them is a sure-fire way for Kazu to land herself in the hospital at best, and specifically the ICU at worst.

The Third Law - If Kazu happens to run into something at high speeds, she is going to get hurt. Probably badly. She wasn’t gifted with enhanced durability. A wall, or a pole, or the ground at top speeds is going to do a lot of damage.

Explosive Overclocking - Though casting off her weights will grant her an extra burst of speed, just a little more to help her reach her goal, Kazuu is unused to her balance without them. Dropping her weights tends to make her unsure of her own speed and balance, increasing the likelihood that she will make a mistake. See The Third Law for why that would be very, very bad.

[Zeroth]

@KrayzikkUnfortunately, we already have a speedster with a focus on acceleration and many of the same control issues. I'm trying to prevent as much overlap between powers as possible, but I know that with so many characters already that's going to get hard to do. Nonetheless, I personally think this is a little too similar.

[Kaithas]

So uh is this full or you got room for one more?

[Plank Sinatra]

Dallas Grenier

[NAME]
Dallas Brett Matthieu Grenier [possibly]

[GENDER]
Male

[AGE]
17

[APPEARANCE]

The Superhero Pinup

Many of Dallas' accessories are either familial or religious. He wears his father's custom French Foreign Legion jacket, white and sunburst orange, and has a small silver cord around his neck where he wears a weathered .22 caliber bullet and two Catholic medallions, one for St. Christopher and one for St. Anthony.

Tattoos include the words "REPENT, HARLEQUINS" along his right clavicle and a large clock face over his abs, with his navel resting where the VI would on an old grandfather clock. The quote "I'm late, I'm late, for a very important date" wraps underneath the bottom half of a clock, with the words very important date forming an arrow pointing down his waist.


[PERSONALITY]
Though not villainous, Dallas isn't exactly a "truth, justice, and kissing babies on the head" kind of hero - nor is he a brooding, "knives and guns are the weapon of the enemy" espousing emo brat. Rather, his personality flaws all lay in his poor attitude in general. Intentionally needling, irreverent, and quick to anger, the mercurial young man loves to pout and roll his eyes with aplomb, and his Cheshire grin is just as often intended to make someone else roll their eyes right back at him. He's not without his vanity either, often going out of his way to emphasize his own attractiveness or flirt with others. Noted pansexual.

Despite his love of being the bad boy, the French army brat has a heart of gold a Rolex heart somewhere underneath the jackassery. Bold and fearless to a fault, his incessant need to talk often belies superb oratory skills and a creative mind. It's not rare for you to shut Dallas up only to find yourself thinking later on how there was a good idea or two underneath the stream of jokes, come-ons, and curses. In addition, he has a pronounced weakness for the terminally ill or those badly affected by their powers.

He gets a little wet in the eyes when certain animals bite it in the movies.

Fuck off.

[BACKSTORY]
There is honestly little known about Dallas' life that could be called concrete.

When he first attempted to enroll in Brave High, he was turned away when the name he used to enroll - Jean-Claude Bravo - was found to be clearly falsified and he begrudgingly enrolled under another name. This one - though still probably false - at least led somewhere. The boy who called himself 'Dallas Grenier' had Parisian records dating back to his tenth birthday, living with an American father who had enrolled under another pseudonym in the French Foreign Legion and later became a French citizen under the edict of Français par le sang versé. The boy, now a citizen of the European Union, used the name in a series of EU countries in a trek eastward - last living in Vilnius before enrolling in Brave High.

Though he often spits out a series of random (and seemingly unbelievable) factoids and anecdotes about his life, much of the truth regarding a boy whose very power relies on conning people into thinking he has more power is going to remain unknown.

[QUIRK]
If I Only Had a Heart - Dallas' organs are less organs and more biological watches, clocks, and other assorted timepieces. His heart is a large pocketwatch; there is an alarm clock face on the bottom of his right forearm that counts down the amount of time he's lived from years to the second; his very pupils have golden, ticking clock patterns. If you were to cut him down the middle you would find a large clock face underneath his six pack. This obviously does not allow him control over the power of time, but rather, a subtle degree of suggestion regarding it. Similar to how people look at stopped clocks or clocks not set for Daylight Savings Time, Dallas is able to coerce and trick people's perception of time, allowing him to seemingly manipulate it for good or ill. This power, as much illusionary as it is chronokinetic, has won Dallas many a scrap in which he landed a hundred blows on a fighter in the time they thought it took to blink once.

[SKILLS AND TECHNIQUES]
Chew it Over with Twix - Dallas has the ability to alter the perception of others regarding how they perceive time - he can slow them down to the point where he appears to move like a speedster, allowing him to land several blows in the time they try responding to one. Use of this power often leaves an opponent feeling sluggish and helpless, as though waking up from a nap, though to anyone unaffected by Dallas they will be simply be allowing the blows to rain on them.

Faster Than a Speeding Bullet - Conversely, Dallas can also speed up the way people perceive time around them. Whereas the other half of his skillset revolves around psyching out opponents, this skill is more of a way to challenge the reflexes of his allies - similar to pushing someone in a pool and expecting them to swim quickly, attacks rained down on him or his friends are more likely to be deflected and countered quickly and with more effectiveness.

Only the Good Die Young - Less of a skill and more of a biological side effect of his Quirk, Dallas' cells are healthier and more orderly than those of a normal person. He will handle the effects of aging much more cleanly - if he ages at all - through the rest of his life and would, exempting the limits of his Quirks, prove healthy enough to live 150% of the lifespan of a normal human. The fact that this life expectancy is such a toss-up for him is a source of quiet bitterness for him.

The Subtle Knife - Dallas is uncannily well suited for combat with a knife, and often carries one on his person when not inside a classroom.

Hell of a Tongue - Dallas speaks at least four languages - English, French, Italian, and Japanese.

[LIMITS]
The Boy Out of Time - The majority of Dallas' internal organs are timepieces - and, like all timepieces, are susceptible to skipping, going out of rhythm, or just plain dying. His aversion to aging disguises the danger this poses to his body - when such glitches inside his body occur, his mannerisms will range from twitching extremities, rapid blinking, and a slight stutter in words to full on seizures until his organ systems course correct. The use of his Quirk does not seem to instantly bring on these side effects, but their continued usage seems likely to be having a long-term effect. When these systems begin permanently failing - as all timepieces do eventually - Dallas will die.

[Write]

@Zeroth@Krayzikk

I analyzed the two CSes in question and I think that they are actually very different. Here's my general analysis:

1. The general weakness Matsuri deals with is the stop. She has listed limits of durability, turning and environment (the general is moving faster and is harder to react limitation) whereas Kazu’s are: Speed limit (she can only go as fast as she can safely move without hurting herself), Breakdown – her muscles and bones with fracture and tear the more she uses her quirk, durability, and her inability to control how fast she is going when dropping her weights.

2. Breakdown of differences: One of Kazu’s strengths is actually one of Matsuri’s weaknesses. Kazu is able to process stimuli far faster than non-speedsters where this is one of Matsuri’s largest weaknesses.

3. Kazu uses weights for extreme resistance when she is running and a way to ‘break her limit’ by taking them off. This is a key difference to how Matsuri functions mainly due to the fact that Matsuri is more focused on a burst of speed whereas Kazu is focused on maintaining a slower more constant speed, thus the need to process stimuli faster and weight to keep her going slower (on a super speed level of course).

4. Matsuri’s techniques mainly revolve around using her quirk in order to perform a superhuman attack. This is very different from any of Kazu’s skills in which she typically speaking uses normal movements that are greatly enhanced because she is moving at super speed. Kazu also has fewer named moves and is more focused, once more, on her consistency as a speedster instead of a one powerful shot archetype that Matsuri clearly falls under.

5. Both go into great detail about how their quirk can get them into trouble, however Matsuri seems to be unable to be ripped apart simply by her own speed and strength. Whereas this is a constant wall that Kazu has in front of her. This may not seem important, but it allows them to write how they are using their abilities very differently, it also allows them to specify in complete different strengths and overall have very varied writing.

All in all, while yes they are both speedsters – the way they use their abilities are completely different, as are 95% of their strengths, weaknesses, skills and techniques. I’d argue they’re very different under analysis as too will be their writing in application. Personally, I know we're getting a ton of applications so I think two very different uses of super speed isn't the worst offence, given the fact that it's such an incredibly popular power/quirk and I would hate for either writer to have to go back and edit their entire CS.

[DELETED7282737]

@Zeroth hmm what thinking on something with liquid but ill go and continue looking for something special

[Zeroth]

@Plank SinatraI'm a little wary of any time manipulation powers, but absolutely awestruck by how creative this is. I think I'm going to allow it, although might I suggest maybe adding a limit or two to it? As it is the one he has is a pretty big one, but since it's a time manipulation power I just wanna be on the safe side, you know? But I think as long as he's basically a support of sorts, speeding up allies and slowing down enemies, it will probably be fine.

@WriteHmm, you make some good points. Alright then, I'll allow it, @Krayzikk, if no one has any other objections. And within her limits, let's say that the speed that she can safely run at is 65 kmh (about 40 miles per hour), with her yellow, orange, and red areas being 2-4 times that.

Everyone, I hope that huge-ass post wasn't too much for you. If you need a TL;DR, basically all the teachers collected their homeroom students--the four classes--and are giving them a tour of the school for the benefit of the Freshmen and any newcomers. This is the time to ask questions of the teachers, interact with and get to know each other some more, and for the Juniors, to do their Quirk Assessment at their own pace. I'll let you guys decide how well you do in each event, and once the juniors are finished the other classes can move in.

If you haven't finished a character or posted yet, it's fine with me if you retroactively write yourself into the previous bits and pieces, since we don't want to leave anyone behind.

[Inertia]

@Zeroth
Can you please make a quick list of who's in which classes, like a list of the freshman, sophomores and juniors?

Edit: Holy crap the latest post is amazing, I can't wait to come back and post ^^!

Freshmen - Tatsumi, Nina, Matsuri, Daisuke, Luca
Sophomores - Sou, Yasu, Ayah, Kosoku
Juniors - Tonaka, Namari, Mine, Dirk

Of course, this only includes one of the just-recently-accepted characters, Nina. For those that are just getting characters up, there's a year margin with the classes so feel free to pick between the two classes that match your character's age.
