[OOC] Academy of Hereos and Villains: Year two

[Archmage MC]

@KatherinWinter where should I have Van come in?

@Weird Tales

Well apparently there was an attack on the school this morning causing darkness illusions or something. No one knows where it came from and it was over quickly, but morning classes were canceled.

Right now everyone is at gym class doing an obstacle course in two distinct talking groups from what I can tell. BlackPanther's group and RumikoOhara's group. but everyone does the course individually.

Hop into gym class and fold into a group is my best guess on where to start.

[KatherinWinter]

Oh, ok. No one was posting for a couple days so I decied to go. Figured there were only 8 or so people since Hachi is incapped and your char felt like she wanted to go last as to not ice up everything and the rest aren't in gym.

And the ring thing is more her bad luck, I wasn't sure on the doors since people without super strength lifted them just fine. I'll edit stuff if you need me to no problem. How should I edit it?

@Archmage MC

Not to be rude but it hadn't been a couple of days. It had been 22 hours. Second I MADE sure that EVERYONE was in the gym before starting the course. Even with only 8 (which if you count the characters even half) only one has gone and a second volunteered. Honestly the only thing I would have you change is

Light decided to give the course a shot. "Well, I guess I can do this thing. Not many people left."

and

First around halfway through the obstacle one of the rings broke, causing her to tumble to the ground. Grumbling she grabbed another one and tried again. The second time through, instead of the ring breaking, the peg decided that it had enough of these kids swinging on it and snapped free, causing her to fall again.

@KatherinWinter

Your not being rude, don't worry. Sorry, I felt a couple days had passed. My schedule is messed up and I thought today was thursday or friday. xD

I was thinking the ring thing was a thing about her luck, but I guess it doesn't make sense. I'll change it all up. xD

[MarshiestMallow]

There's still a few people to go actually.

Connor, phoebe, Kijani, Kassy....that's four off the topic of my head right there

Kyle.

More.

I'll be posting tonight

[KatherinWinter]

@Archmage MC

I understand days getting confused. It happens too me all the tim. Just look at the time stamp. It will tell you how long it's been. Im fine with her falling. Just change the breaking.

[KatherinWinter]

@BlackPanther this reminds me I meant to ask you how strong is Jasper in human form?

[BlackPanther]

@KatherinWinter
String but not superhuman strong

Both him and his brother trained and part of training was weight lifting

Jasper can lift around...300 pounds not with ease but he can lift it

Hachi has leaner muscle that allows him to not be as bulky but still lift around the same.

I'm not totally familiar with how much weight would be considered superhuman but 300 sounds okay to me because like I said not with ease.

[MarshiestMallow]

@BlackPantherjeez

Maybe Kalinda should go to him for strength training XD

[Archmage MC]

According to the superpower wiki, 300 is really low on the strength scale. Apparently the top that peak human physice is 1100 lbs. I find that a bit obscene, but I guess Batman can lift a ton so it kinda makes sense?

I don't use that wiki very often so I dunno how creditable it is.

[BlackPanther]

@Caits
Either brother :P

@Archmage MC
With that in mind it should be good then.
Figure comics are super realistic since to be able to lift a ton you would have to be a competition weight lifter.....or on steroids
Neither is super recommended

Anyway yea thanks think I'm good then

[KatherinWinter]

Jasper can lift around...300 pounds not with ease but he can lift it

@BlackPanther

I think 200 pounds would be the max for most humans. So superhuman would be 200-500. Beyond 500 you would need someone like the hulk.

[BlackPanther]

@KatherinWinter
So I looked it up
290 for a novice male lifter is actually average

livestrong.com/article/380767-how-much..

So id say I'm in the ball park since Hachi is 18 and Jasper is 17 figure they aren't exactly beginners with lifting but not exactly pros

So I'll drop to around 220 for both

Edit: though I'd prefer to keep it higher

[RumikoOhara]

"An effective way to evaluate the average's man strength is to look at familiar exercises that work multiple muscle groups. With this in mind, the average untrained man can squat 125 pounds, bench press 135 pounds and deadlift 155 pounds."

At least that's Wiki's answer

And Olympic Athletes

Snatch 216 kg (476 pounds) Behdad Salimi Iran 16 August 2016 Olympic Games Brazil Rio de Janeiro, Brazil [13]
Clean & Jerk 263 kg (579 pounds) Hossein Rezazadeh Iran 25 August 2004 Olympic Games Greece Athens, Greece

[RumikoOhara]

Sorry I love research

@RumikoOhara

Thats about how much I can do in all 3 of those and I'm a twig. xD

So what would you all evaluate Super Strength to start at? Personally I think its around when you can easily pick up and throw cars.

[BlackPanther]

@RumikoOhara
You should peek at the link I posted
It's got a bunch more stuff

@Archmage MC
That would be around 1 ton at least
I'd say that's reasonable

But that's just me

[KatherinWinter]

@BlackPanther I would say 500 or less.

[BlackPanther]

So with that all in mind I'll go with a nice middle range for both at 250
Sound good?

[Archmage MC]

So, are any characters dating any other characters yet or no?

[KatherinWinter]

@Archmage MC Kalinda and Ryan but that's it I think
