Name
Ryuma Saionji
(close friends call him Yuma)

Age
18

Appearance

Hider

Despite his title, he doesn't go around carrying a sword everywhere he goes. He does, however, wear an amulet of sorts. It's essentially an antique circular guard from a Katana with a thin chain looped through it so it can be worn around the neck. It's a piece of an authentic Katana, from a family sword that was broken up into pieces kept by various members of the family, Yuma's piece just happens to be the hand guard.

Personality
Yuma often comes off as very stern if not outright cold. That's mostly just an exterior he wears to keep with his title of Super Duper High School Samurai. In truth, he only seems cold or stern as a way of showing respect to others. If he seems cold or silent, its because he's respectfully allowing others their turn to speak. If he seems overly stern, that's mostly due to the disciplined nature of his art. Otherwise, he's perfectly willing to be friendly with others, spend time with them and eventually become their friend. His only real problem is that his stern exterior often makes him difficult to approach. One can usually tell how close or not he is with someone by simply listening to how he addresses them. He addresses people he barely knows by their last name, often with a -dono suffix to show respect or etiquette. It's only with friends that he is willing to go on a first name basis, and even then he might still use the -dono suffix out of respect.

Bio
Ryuma Saionji was born in Sendai, of the Tohoku region and known primarily as the land given to the Date clan during the Tokugawa Shogunate. Ryuma himself is of a family decorated in tradition. Descended from a Samurai of the Date clan, this fact is often worn as a badge of honor by many of Yuma's family and, to an extent, himself as well. Practicing Kendo and learning to wield a sword is a tradition within the Saionji family as a way of respecting their history. This doesn't totally define the family, though. Kendo is often just a childhood hobby for many and they pursue careers of their own during adulthood. More often than not, this leads them to fields of law and law enforcement. There are actually quite a few police officers and lawyers in the family, as well as at least one judge. For Ryuma, his talent and skill within the Kendo sport is a means to end. He enjoys the sport, and practices it to stay in shape and to respect his family, but he has made it no secret that he intends to use it primarily as a means for getting into a good college via scholarship. His plan was originally to attend Law School after graduating from Hope's Peak.

Name:
Kenji Akiyama
Age:
16
Appearance:

Kenji has dyed light blue hair and blue eyes. He is skinny and has a slim body build, he stands at 5'6 and he weighs around 143 lbs.
Personality:
Kenji is very awkward when it comes to making friends in real life, which he doesn't do that much. He is sort of friendly, but very shy and would rather makes friends on an online MMO or first person shooter. Kenji LOVES, LOVES to play video games. It's his favorite thing. Even though he loves games, he doesn't spend all his time on them, he can get work done and isn't lazy when it comes to something he needs to do.
Bio:
Kenji was born in Tokyo, located in Honshu. His parents were Sato Akiyama and Akane Akiyama. When he was 4, he discovered video games on his dad's old Playstation 2. At first, he found games confusing but also fun. Kenji had started to get better at them, and soon was a prodigy at it. He played in leagues of video games like Call of Duty, and usually made it in the Top 50. It was easy for him, was never that hard either. He didn't really high school, considering he was bullied of his geeky nature. He did try his best with his grades, either that or his parents would take the game consoles from him. Soon enough, he received an invitation to Hope's Peak Academy, a school for extremely talented teenagers. Kenji thought this was amazing, but he didn't know about the nightmare he was getting into..

YES FINALLY A DR RP! lemme make my char (how many can you make?)

Maria DiScascio

Name: Maria DiScascio

Speciality: Ultimate Devout

Age: 16

Appearance:
Maria is usually only seen in her habit. She wears a deep blue habit that covers her entire body, except for her face and hands. Around her neck she wears a necklace with a crucifix attached to it, and always keeps a spare crucifix in her inside pocket. Underneath her habit she wears a formal black nightgown in which she sleeps in. She wears low black heels with no apparent design on it.

Personality:
Maria, as you would expect from a nun, is a very kind and caring young girl who, at first sight, doesn't seem to have any bad intentions. She stays strong to her religion and always seeks comfort in it. Religion is something precious to her as it helped her in her time of need, namely when she was dropped off at a monastery by her biological parents. The head nun raised her as her own child and taught her the ways of God. Maria, having lived by the rules of God stated in the Bible is oblivious to anything outside of the Bible and monastery and thus doesn't know much about the outside world, despite her aspirations to join the Vatican. She doesn't know about a lot of modern age things and doesn't quite get jokes as she simply doesn't have any experience with the things jokes are usually about.

She is a fragile person who may cry a lot when bad things are happening. Though fragile, she does everything to keep her own and others clean of demons, and will do anything to do that especially in this survival game. She wishes everyone to be a good person and thinks they all need to convert to Christianity. She always has been this way, wanting to help other people to follow the truth, and get rid off all their sins so they may go to heaven when they die. However when someone sins/goes against the rules of God she may get quite angry and may even act like a huge bitch towards them. This is mainly because she is the adoptive daughter of the head nun and was quickly allowed to punish other people in the monastery when they were in the wrong, and always was able to avoid punishment herself.

Bio:
At birth Maria was an unwanted child by her biological parents, a mistake they made in their eyes. She was left on the front door of the local monastery and was taken in by the mother superior. Mother superior, not being able to get children due to her religion and of being a woman of age, really was glad with the child and decided to raise it as her own, naming her Maria like the holy virgin. Because she was adopted by mother DiScascio she always was treated better than the other nuns. But Maria herself was also very interested in the Bible itself and eventually learned the whole book. She did such a fine job that she was promoted and was the youngest of her age to have such a high position in a monastery. She was allowed to punish others when they sinned, but got away with everything else herself. Her great talent was discovered and she went to the school for people with exceptional talent, hoping that she could to the Vatican after finishing her school there.

Other:
She can cite the entire Bible from the top of her head, despite that still has a small Bible brought along with her.
She respects people with different religions, but can never put herself in the shoes of non-believers.

Douglas Peray

Name: Douglas Peray

Age: 18

Appearance:


Douglas is 5'5 tall and weighs 123lbs. He has bright blue eyes and his natural hair colour is light brown though he dyed it because he likes the colour pink. Sometimes he would carry a pink bunny doll with him and talk to it whenever he likes to.

Personality:

Douglas on the outside is known to be quite mean and awful. Instead of being a puppy with his innocent looks he is a wolf with a bad bite. He isn't afraid to be blunt and honest to a person and is ready to give his true opinion hard on them. This makes it hard for him to make any friends but in a sense he prefers to be alone. He is ready to chew anyone out and if he sees one single flaw he is ready to bite. As cruel he may be it because his lack of trust with people he has to act this way, he feels like he has to protect himself. He rather act like a jerk to others so no one would go in and hurt him again.

Alone or if possible in front of friends he is quite sweet and very loyal, he adores the cutest things and loves sweets especially peach flavored snacks. He gets scared easily and likes to hide behind Ruby his best friend for protection. He loves movies especially DreamWorks ones and can’t help but quote some lines there time to time. He is afraid of scary movies though but watches them so he can see how people can act.

Bio:

Douglas grew up in a small town being a blank face among many others. With the way he looked he was avoided quite a bit and didn't friends by his side. He watched movies and read books and began to act like them to create himself a world of happiness. It was with luck though he began his acting career, with one of the lead roles of his school play gotten sick and him being the backup he took role of Juliet. With great success from the play and it was even video tapped and uploaded to YouTube, so many talent scouts went to him. Auditions from auditions he taken part in many movies and plays in such a young age. His popularity reach so high that everyone wanted to be his friend and there he was happy.

He and his family moved to Japan in Tokyo, as there was a role offered to him. He moved to a new school and it seemed so many students knew about him. He thought it was nice to have friends for once even if it was just because of his fame. Some spread all of his secrets to magazines and talk shows almost exposing himself. Nasty rumours flew by and scandals appeared fast. He didn't know how to handle it but he played well and acted like he didn't care so no one sees how much this hurts him.

There he stopped letting people in. He lost his trust on people around him and grew afraid. Soon began to act this hurtful personality to others, as he is afraid for them to hurt him first. When he was offered to study in a school filled with people with great talent he thought he can make friends but rather testing the waters he played safe and continue to act nasty with others. After he graduates he hopes to stop his acting career, go back living like another face in the crowd and maybe start ups cafe.

Specialty:
Super Duper High School Actor

Other:
He still loves to act but he wants to stop his career and live peacefully away from people.

Likes: Peach tea and bagels
Dislike: Coffee and peanuts

Hope this is okay and sorry if my grammar is bad ^^; Just tell me if anything needs change!

Furostomi Yukimura

Name: Furostomi Yukimura
Age: 16
Appearance:
Personality: Furostomi is pretty timid and shy thanks to the constant chattering of her teeth putting people off talking to her. She's pretty kind underneath all the shivering, wanting nothing more than to help the people around her, but she lacks the confidence to do too much. She is a very active person and will do as much as she can in times of need or in terms of sports too.
Bio: Furostomi was born in Shizuoka in Japan. Her parents were a decently rich couple who owned an expansive series of winter lodges across the globe, including one in the mountains near Shizuoka. Thus, Furostomi grew up in full knowledge of winter sports, with her parents funds to help get her through most of her life with relative ease.

As she grew up, Furostomi's parents took her on various winter sports activities, sledding, tobogganing and eventually skiing. It was here, they learned, Furostomi had an almost unnatural gift for the sport, learning quickly and becoming more and more skilled with each conquered slope. As she grew older, she eventually became skilled enough to compete in true levels of competition, winning the Junior Japanese Ski championships at 16 and taking home a decent sized trophy.

Tragedy struck when she was out skiing on her own, one of her sticks broke as she was going down and she lost control, crashing into a snowbank. She survived with only minor injuries but contracted a rare case of Raynauds disease, making her almost permanently cold and forcing her to wear warm clothing as often as she can. It affected her personality slightly as she found it harder to talk to people with her teeth chattering and so, she became something of an outcast, even if she still loved her sport. It was good enough to have her come to Hopes Peak, at the very least.

Specialty: (Super Duper High School Skiier)
Other: Whilst skiiing is Furostomi's main skill, she is also an efficient ice skater and a half decent snowboarder, however she doesn't like snowboarding as much due to claiming it feels far too restrained for her liking.

Lee

Name: Lee

Age: 21

Appearance:
Short,black, messy hair and with stripes of grey ones on the side. Sharp, grey eyes, strong jaws and high cheekbones. His canine teeth are a little longer than normal. He has a mesomorph, athletic body. He wears a dark grey janitorial outfit and dark grey snickers.

Personality: Very sociable and won't give up the chance to meet new people. Very optimistic and always looks at things with pozitive eyes. He enjoys every moment he gets with his friends, cherishing their relationship. He is a complete sucker for beautiful girls and dies for cute little ones. Always loved the thought of having a little sister figure.

Bio: Lee was a very sociable person even in primary school. He had a really good start with friends and teachers alike liking him. It all changed once he started hanging out with a group of girls. Besides them being the dream of every boy in his class and maybe of his grade. From that point on he started to get hated and mocked by the other boys. Even though he didn't have any ulterior motives at that time he still got bullied for it. And it all started when he learned that he was put in the same class as his childhood friend that happened to be a girl and of course she introduced him to her group of female friends. ...anyway, that went on for sometime until he completely ceased contact with her in school or while in the company of his friends. You can't say that everything went back to normal after that but the school years passed none the less. ...he never saw her after finishing school. She had planned on going to Hope's Peak Academy but in the end she changed her mind. Lee wanted to join the same school as her in order to repair their relationship but seeing as his grades were normal and he didn't have any extraordinary talent he had to improvise. So he convinced the headmaster that he would work as a janitor before and after the school ended while following the lessons during school hours. He was also required to work as a janitor for a set number of years after finishing school, making it his main job. When he learned that she had changed her mind at the last moment, choosing another school to attend, it was too late. Since finishing school in Hope's Peak Academy he has been stuck there ever since, carrying out his work contract.

Specialty: Super Duper High School Janitor

Other: He has a wristwatch on his left arm and is almost always wearing a pair of earphones that are connected to his cellphone on his right pocket.

[Heckno12]

Robert

Name: Robert
Age: 18
Appearance:

Appearence

Robert is 5'10 and around a 160 pounds. He is almost never seen without his hooded grey jacket that he uses to block out light when sleeping in class.

Personality: To call Robert lazy would be an insult to lazy people everywhere. Despite sleeping pretty constantly, he seems to always be tired. He's pretty friendly, even if someone were to wake him up he'd put on a smile and at least make an attempt at staying conscious...perhaps not very successfully. Despite his demeanor, he is no idiot. He has often angered teachers and students alike by being able to answer their questions immediately after waking.

Bio: Robert has always been mocked by others for having no motivation. Being held back one year of Primary school due to a teacher grading students on their attentiveness, though he didn't seem to mind much. Being a year older than others in his grade would have normally led to at least some teasing, but many students seemed to have some kind of innate fear of him. Rumors spread that he was always so tired because he was doing terrible things at night. This of course wasn't true, but kids have a way with imaginations. It wasn't until early Highschool that people started warming up to him, some of them asking for help on assignments when they could keep him awake. His invitation to Hope's Peak was a surprise to say the least, but with plenty of coaxing from his family he accepted.

Specialty: Super Duper Highschool Sleeper
Other: Even though he seems to be able to sleep through anything, he can usually rouse himself enough pull to stay conscious if it's important.

Ando Yamagata

Name:
Ando Yamagata

Age:
17

Appearance:

Disregard the halberd and imagine it as a guitar. Ando is 6' exactly and is in amazing shape. He dyes his hair purple and usually wears a white button up and black slacks.

Personality:
Ando is usually seen as the silent cool type. The lead guitarist of a band he is in and therefore adored by many girls. However he cares little for any kind of relationship. Due to this many guys hate him or desire to be like him. The only thing that matters to Ando is his guitar. If he didn't have his guitar he probably would beat the crap out of anyone who got to close. The only time anyone can see emotion from Ando is when he plays his guitar or if he's pissed.

Bio:
At a young age many thought Ando would grow up and be like his father. A talentless failure who spent his life doing meaningless work. At the age of eight when his mother died, Ando didn't show any emotion. He bottled it inside. All of this occurred just before the young boys uncle came home to grieve the passing of his sister. The man was a major guitarist in a very prominent Japan. Ando quickly bonded with the man and one day decided to attempt to play the guitar. From the very moment he began it was obvious that Ando was a prodigy.

He spent hours upon hours playing the guitar and drew attention by big record companies. They paired him with a few others and his career as the lead guitarist for a major band began. He eventually became bored with the lifestyle and that was precisely around the time he received an invitation to Hope's Peak Academy. So, just to try something new and to get away from the fame a little he decided to attend the school.

Specialty:
Super Duper High School Guitarist

Tora Hayashi

Name: Tora Hayashi (real first name: Etsuko)

Age: 16 years old

Appearance: Tora is around 5'4" to 5'5" with an hourglass figure and a weight of 128 pounds. She has light skin, dark orange hair in a high side ponytail with a pair of goggles adjusted to be a hairpiece attaching it, brown eyes, one earring on her earlobe, and a tiger paw's tattoo under her bellybutton. Her main outfit consists of a white tanktop under her orange denim sleeveless vest with brown stripes on the back, matching orange denim shorts with dark brown suspenders, and brown boots with white knee-high socks. However, she used to have brown hair in a low side ponytail with a black ponytail holder.

Personality: She can be laid-back and easy-going when she wants to, though if things get serious, then she gets serious as well. She has a level of intelligence and knowledge in some areas, though she can be clueless in other areas. Despite her tomboyish appearance and profession, she's not afraid to be in touch with her feminine side as she does dream of getting married one day and having a family of her own as well.

Bio: Born as Etsuko Hayashi, Tora is the youngest of three children in a blended family consisting of a father from a family of carpenters, a stay-at-home mother, one paternal half-brother (from her father's first wife) as the eldest child and one biological brother as the middle child. As her brothers were a disappointment to their father when they refused to delve into carpentry like him and his father before him, Tora was expected to be one as well with their mother making plans to have her go into home education. However, she decided to go into carpentry instead when her brothers could not and become the first female in her family to do so. Despite her ambitions, Tora is often looked down by her family for the idea and is doubted by everyone else, thinking that the profession would stress her out. Against her peers and family's wishes, she accepted the risk and went into carpentry, working hard to get an apprenticeship and finding broken or unfinished projects to complete them using old blueprints. She becomes renowned for being a gifted carpenter and proves her worth to her family and peers, eventually coming to Hope's Peak Academy as a result.

Specialty: Super Duper High School Carpenter

Other: As a child, she developed a fear for tigers ever since she watched a documentary on them with her half-brother and would constantly be teased about it. After graduating middle school, however, she decided to adopt a tiger motif as a form of therapy, including dyeing her hair dark orange, sporting the tattoo, and changing her name from "Etsuko" to "Tora".
