Hello everyone I'm newer to the series My Hero Academia (only being in at episode 11 in the anime) however I've come up with some ideas and some characters as well. However I am far too busy to be GM'ing a roleplay for one at the moment. The most I could do for a roleplay in this regard would be some basic plot planning, NPC Management, and being a Co-Gm. I do have a tendency to prefer higher level casual roleplays over lower casual as well however I'll leave the gm'ing to whoever is willing to volunteer for that duty...or if I'm forced too I can take the reins however I heavily insist that someone else do so. I'm getting rather sick of having to do all of the story related posts for roleplay which is especially annoying since there are so few roleplays rolling around that I'd be able to participate in with any interest.

The story I believe should be completely separate from the main story in it's own universe, or at least be a prequel to the main events of the canon timeline. Quirks need to be managed and have weaknesses and all characters should be born with their quirks as well in my opinion but this is all up to debate among those interested. However something I will adamantly insist on including is a laid out explaination of their powers (Weaknesses, strengths, and limitations) for the quirks chosen by the players. Characters should either be all villains or all heroes. Roleplays with two opposing factions can be fun if handled well however in my experience all of those roleplays have failed miserably due to in-fighting.

However for my part I will definitely throw out a couple of ideas to get started.

A school based roleplay. We get accepted into the academy from the anime and we all start on our journey from low class heroes all the way up to graduation with all the misadventures and trials involved. Assuming that roleplay gets too the end we could conceivably get too make a spin off as we make our journey forward as actual recognized heroes.

A team based roleplay. We could skip all the boring slice of life based stuff and get right into the action as a group of heroes. Be it we start as a team, congregate to fight another group of enemies, or simply work together in the same city we could all have our own villains, make our own scenarios, and plan the story as it goes along while easily being able to allow new players to join in.

A team based roleplay....as the villains. Hear me out why not flip the tables over? Why not try to take over the city? Those goody two shoes have it all good don't they? Fame, fan girls, and fortune? What's not to like about that? How about the fact we have to kiss the public's ass on a daily basis and work within the law and listen to the police every time they bitch about us using our god given quirks? Let's put our powers too some good use and flip the tables over? Most people like playing the heroes but playing as the villains can be equally as fun in my opinion.

Well those are three ideas I have. I hope that they at least peaked some fancy but this is a ROLEPLAY PLANNING after all. If you guys have ideas feel free to throw them out there. I understand that mine aren't full fleshed out and all but it is what it is until someone decides to come help me out.

===

For now I'll leave a small checklist of what I know we should expect but don't have just for reference sake.

Checklist:

GM []
Plot []
Players: []
Rules: []

You have peeked my interest @vancexentan, and I can say that I would be all for it participating in a My Hero Academia RP managed by you.

As for what I would prefer, it would be the first or second idea. I will admit that portraying a villain is absolutely not my think, and School Life part takes precedence in my mind mainly because it is the main part of the anime and manga that I am most familiar with.

Still, you have me 100% and I cannot wait for this to be off the ground.

I'm glad to have you aboard Nightwing as I said I'd prefer this roleplay be managed by someone else but I also agreed to gm if no one else is willing to do. I don't have plot details in specific only general concepts so if you could help me brainstorm with anyone else who may be interested I'd appreciate anything you can throw out.

Ok, the first idea I have on top of my head is about the setting. I would like the possibility of a prequel, that pretty much gives us free reign on our characters, the Teachers in UA Academy etc. But what is more obvious is that one of the characters...could be the user of One For All. I know that this sounds like a Broken Character waiting to happen, but if the character is either played or controlled by the GMs it could very much become an important and interesting plot element.

By the way, If this starts, I already have my own Quirk that I just cannot wait to put in use.

I've already ruled out the one for all power as a thing. I don't want to trust a quirk like that too a person who could very well just vanish off the face of the earth in the roleplay.

That makes sense.

Has anybody else except me shown interest, through PM maybe?

I'm always up for a My Hero Academia or OPM rp, regardless of which idea you choose in the end. Though, I would prefer the first two. I also like the idea of having our own scenarios/villains, so that could possibly be implemented with the first idea as well (like having our own rivals throughout the school year).

I already have a character and quirk ready to use.

Also, HI VANCE!

@Nightwing95No one but you and animal. It has only been up for a half a day and was posted at one in the morning so I wasn't expecting any immediate interest.

@AnimalHello Animal glad to see you here always nice to see two old faces. I'll wait for a few more faces to show up before I do anything for sure but it seems the first option is the most popular so far. I'll be willing to let you guys make up your own rivals and play them if you desire without a character sheet assuming you run their powers past me first. Rival NPC's will allow players to do things without forcing me to shove people together which has become an all too annoying common place thing for me.

The Rival system seems interesting @vancexentan. I'll give it a thought.

By the way, do you accept more people in your Persona RP?

I was expecting more interest to be frankly honest. If either of you two know anyone who may be interested and who may also be interested in gming (but the last part isn't required) I would be appreciative if you told them about this.

*throws in coin of interest*

I personally would love to see a really good villain, or at least antagonist, but really there is so many directions we could go that I'd be down for whatever.

I've seen how academy RPs turn out and it's turnover after turn over. Acting as a team would be nice as long as everyone is consistent and PRESENT which I seem to be having problems with myself but from the evil perspective sounds like a fresh idea. But if that's the case will we make our own hero's to fight? Will the GM? Or do we try to expand it so that Rpers have a choice to choose sides. Problem with that is when it comes to fighting ESPECIALLY if you have a RPer who just straight up disappears.

Now I was thinking. What if we set it up to were it's similar to say, Avengers Civil War. The governments of the would enact a policy requiring that all superheroes have to register themselves into a database so everyone knows who they are and what not. Some agree and some disagree leading to a fight amongst themselves. I have a few ideas and if you're interested just pm me or whatever and I can help you out

I was leaning towards the second one myself but I do honestly think the villains team up would be an interesting one to do. If the others would be willing to do so I think the latter two of my ideas would be for the best unless someone has a better idea. Depending on the situation we find ourselves in I believe the GM should control most fights but depending on if I become gm or not I would delegate some fights to people willing to make up a one off or reoccurring villain as an NPC. I've been in one free roleplay where the gm let us as the leaders of the group make our own antagonists so I wouldn't mind that assuming it's run through the big G. Having players on opposing sides SOUNDS viable but at the end of the day in all of my experiences in Naruto based villages roleplays with people in all sorts of towns even with multiple gms the roleplays failed quickly. REALLY quickly. And on top of that there was a lot of infighting. I know there was one multi village naruto rp that succeeded but that was a dime a dozen.

Personally the civil war idea is a solid idea but it's pretty bad for an opener. It would be more suitable for a possible idea for around the roleplay hitting it's mid-stages. We should start out small and work our way up into bigger things. @FallenTrinity

@Unlucky0013Also thanks for showing interest.

@vancexentan

I mean this is YOUR idea. I find it difficult to believe you wouldn't want to GM your own idea but this is simply my opinion.

As I said in the first post I don't mind being the gm for this roleplay if I have to be. I'd just prefer someone else to be the gm. No one would be making of these roleplays for awhile so I figured I'd throw it out there and maybe see if someone else would mind taking over the story posts. I've grown tired of making them as of late but I can still do them.
