[Tenma Tendo]

@Araby264@Tominas@Rob Thanks for the kind words. Really means a lot. ^^

A little late to the party, but that box match post is beautiful T^T.

Also, I'll work on getting a post up once I've read everything :o

@Rob

Hi!

I've been lurking and have just caught up with the OOC and the Characters. I have yet to read the IC, but I think I have enough information to throw my hat into the ring and attempt a CS application, here goes, and let me know if the power seems redundant, especially with Dante and Eir's quirks. @Araby264 @Superboy

Osameru Kyouran

_{Height: 5'11"
Weight: 180lbs (more if using quirk)}

One detail of NOTE. There is a bear trap permanently fused to her lower jaw, so she actually kind of looks like this:

Name: Osameru Kyouran
Gender: Female, bordering on EPIC
Age: 15

Personality:

Kyouran is chummy and honorable, with all the chivalry of a typical hot-blooded Japanese punk with none of the insecure aggression. She readily makes 'bonds of brotherhood' with people who have impressed her in any way. She is a tomboy who likes to get down and dirty and believes that physical contact is integral to 'brotherly' bonding. She has a tendency to joke and just let things roll off her shoulder so it's very difficult to know when something is actually bothering her. Kyouran believes very strongly in protecting the weak and standing up to bullies, but will recognize when people need to beat each other up to communicate with their fists.

Background:

Born in Yokohama to rice-farming parents, the only daughter in a house full of boys, Kyouran was always the underling in her gang of brothers, though they called her 'older sister' (Ane) because she was the first (and only) girl, telling her that if they had any more sisters, she would be the leader of the girls. Living in a rural area, the children grew up in a rough-and-tumble environment, forming small rival gangs, but their upbringing stressed a sense of honor among them.

One day, in elementary school, Kyouran broke into her father's tool shed and found a bear trap. Thinking to prank him, she fused the trap to her mouth using her quirk to make herself look scary. However, in her hurry to run out of the shed to go scare her father, she walked over a rake that she had knocked over in her search for the bear trap, causing the rake handle to fly up and strike her in the forehead. She was unconscious for much longer than her quirk's time limit, and by the time her family found her, it was too late. The trap that she had fused to her face was now a permanent part of her body, taking away her ability to speak normally. Initially, the thought was horrifying, but her family reminded her that they would still love her no matter what she looked like, and she eventually found humor in her situation.

As she grew older, she used her visage to intimidate her foes and became notorious as a strong gang leader in her own right. It had always been her dream to become a hero and protect the weak, but now she had another motivation: perhaps the training of her quirk could allow her to learn how to finally unfuse the trap from her face. Unfortunately, her grades were pretty sub-par so getting into a prestigious hero Academy was impossible to her. Her family caught wind of the experimental Kosei Academy, which was her last shot to find a place where she could dedicate to mastering her quirk.

Quirk:

Dieselpunk - Kyouran has the ability to fuse mechanical or metallic objects into her body for one hour, after which intense pain will cause her to reject the 'implant'. Her jaw is a permanent example of what happened if a mechanical piece stays attached to her body past the time limit. This quirk doesn't give her enhanced strength, only enhanced durability for whatever part of her body has been temporarily replaced with a mechanical object. Eventually, she will develop the ability to harness force-generating aspects of machines such as pneumatics, hydraulics, engines, motors, servos, etc. Even further along, she will be able to meld with electronic devices. Her quirk is severely limited by what pieces of junk she has access to in her vicinity.

Talents and Skills:

Kyouran learned sign language as a way to cope with her speech impediment. She also has the ability to write very quick notes to communicate and always has a notepad and writing utensil on hand. She can speak, but she cannot pronounce the following sounds which require functioning lips: B, F, M, P, V. She replaces B with NG, F with H, M with N, P with KH, and V with W. She's a brawler but undisciplined. She has learned to use her mouth as a weapon and is surprisingly good at catching things in her bear-trap teeth.

Theme Song:

If anyone want to interact with the Dragon girl, I'm in the library, if not I probably go somewhere where there is people xD

[FallenTrinity]

I'm back and should have a post up soon

[Remram]

@Rob
Hi, I think I have an idea for a power. Just giving you a heads up before I send the pm.

[Tominas]

@Iatos
I certainly wouldn't mind Jefferson having a talk with her, she seems like an interesting character. Unfortunately, he's a little tied-up at the moment, as are many of the characters in the RP until Rob gets back. That, and like... broken hand and character development :T I'm certain the training center will treat you well, though. Lots going on :D

[Iatos]

@Tominas

Alright, ^^ sounds good to me.

@Iatos@Araby264@yahoo3422@Superboy@Talipaendrag@Tenma Tendo@Rob@NobodiesHero@Phobos@Pirouette@Animal@Samreaper

If I didn't get you tagged, my b, i was just running down the character tab.

Good God, there are a lot of us. Anywho, I'm just bumping the thread and seeing who's still here and who's still interested in continuing, as we've been kinda sitting without a post for a few days now and I'm not looking to have another fresh RP kick the bucket. That and everyone seemed relatively enthusiastic about this thing initially, so I'm hoping it's a haitus.

Regardless, i hope you've all had/are having wonderful days and wish you all the best. Cheers!

[NobodiesHero]

@Tominas I'd be posting but I'm waiting for Pirouette.

@Tominas

Well, For those that is not aware @Rob is stranded in the Philippines currently until we get a status update and have been delay by 5 days with no internet. Posted from a phone on discord today I think.

And I guess most have been waiting for Rob's return.

But I'm still interested anyway and Like to continue.

@Tominas If you are still interested in interaction we could start up a collab and Interact while you wait for Rob in the current Rp and just post our interactions after your current event has ended.

I suggest that everyone else do the same, Interact with each other with a presumed conclusion to your current event and add what happened in the concluion in a flashback or something later.

[Araby264]

@Tominas
I'm still down to continue

[yahoo3422]

@Tominas

I am still definitely interested, just feel like a lot of us have been waiting for Rob.

[TaliPaendrag]

@TominasI'm still here as well. :D Just waiting on Rob to get back.

[Tominas]

@TaliPaendrag@yahoo3422
That does seem to be the trend. I won't lie, I was getting a little nervous about this one dying too. Just came off of a recent RP death, wanted to make sure this one was alright.

That being said, I just now got a look at the dischord and as long as Rob's holding interest, I reckon we'll probably end well. In the meantime...

I suggest that everyone else do the same, Interact with each other with a presumed conclusion to your current event and add what happened in the concluion in a flashback or something later.

@Iatos

That's... actually a really good idea. Kinda limits options for immediately right now, but I would totally be down on working on a comp if you or anyone else really wanted to. Hell, a multi-person comp sounds kinda fun, if there's interest.

[Stern Algorithm]

I've got a pending character app that I posted right after Rob went AWOL, but I'm still interested, just waiting to be accepted.

[Prewiga]

@Rob I'm a big fan of the series and would like to submit a character if this is still open.

[Tominas]

@Prewiga
I think we're still taking new people. Right now, the GM is without internet, so there's been a bit of a slow-down. That being said, if you slap together a CS, he'll probably be happy to take ya when he gets back. Cheers m8

[Prewiga]

@Tominas Thank you. I'll try to get one up as soon as I can.

[Rob]

Hey guys, online and back home. Sad to say though, after going almost 2 weeks without internet, I sort of lost my motivation for RPing and stuff. Sorry, but I think I won't be continuing this anymore. Feel free to do whatever with everything in the thread. I apologize for wasting everyone's time. See ya.

[Pirouette]

;_; Another Hero Academia RP lost.
