[OOC] Tatakai Academy

[sassy1085]

Tatakai Academy

The premise is that each of our characters goes to a special kind of highschool where strength is respected as much as intelligence is. What you lack for in grades can be made up for in brawls with fellow students, just as long as you come out on top.

Not even the student council is immune to this, if they are ever to lose a fight, then they get kick out of the student council spot and their rank will go back to rank C and they must defeat them to get it back. I say 'fight' a lot in here, but what does that actually entail? Powers. All of the students have unique powers that seem to have no fixed pattern on what they could be.

Each can be powerful in their own right but some can't exactly function well without other things. Fortunately, the school also allows weapons to be brought in and taken with you whenever. With all of this going on, you would think it would be a tough time on the teachers, right? That's sort of the case, but many of the teachers in the school are previous graduates and have their own powers as well.

School life is chaotic to say the least, but at the end of the day, all of the energy fades and you would almost think that nothing had even happened the day before. That is partially the work of the people in the nurses office, who seem to have medicines for pretty much everything, and the legendary re-constructors who have never been seen, but when daybreak comes their work is done.

Ranks

as you gain Points you will gain an equal amount of Ranks. You can only lose Ranks by betting them on a fight, or by breaking the school rules. Your overall school ranking is decided linearly with your Rank, which simply means you having higher Ranks than someone else means you are stronger. You'll need a certain amount of Rank to get good grades but that's not exactly difficult to do. You'll gain a set amount of rank for a victory and the other person will also lose a set amount of rank for a loss or due not wise to have that rank anymore, but you can bet more or less if you really want to.

Rank C

Rank C is the lowest rank ever in this school. Each student who starts their first year begins with Rank C so they can beat others to go to a higher rank, some who are next year are still in rank C, As for Dorms is a fairly normal dorm by anyone's standards. It has normal accommodations with a maximum of four per room (using bunk beds), but you can request to have less. You are able to arrange who lives with you if you want, and meals are provided for you in the communal meal area but they are relatively standard in comparison to other dorms. Rank C houses the most residents

Rank B

Rank B is the same as Rank c but you can development a club but with a slow start and for the dorms are simply a step up from Rank C, requiring a certain rank to move up. The rooms are larger and each can even have their own desk inside. Rank B rooms also have their own bathrooms even though meals are still only communal. You can either have a full sized bed or a bunk bed.

Rank A

Rank A is Where are you are getting into the top and your Club is stronger then before. and now for the dorms are rather luxurious in comparison to the other dorms. Rooms are spacious and meals can even be delivered if you don't want to come down to get them. The A-tier dorms also have their own lounge and entertainment area. A-tier usually houses the least students of the three open dorms, but not just because of the rank requirement.

Rank S

Rank S aka Student Council are the stronger students in the Academy some mat think you are a fool to fight them. and they are five Students, Vice President, the Treasurer, the Public Relations Officer, and the Student Relations Officer and of course the President.
let talk about their dorms are a little different from the others. Instead of having any set structure, their rooms change depending on what they want. Actually, the entire dorm's structure changes according to their wishes. Over the years, there have been greenhouses, tea parlours and even a store-front selling products and guided tours of the dorms. It should be noted that those tours actually took about an hour to complete

---

Fights

Fights are a regular occurrence. If there aren't any random fights breaking out in the school, then that just means that an event where you'll have to fight hard is coming soon. You can fight for any reason, or even no reason at all. There are very little rules when it comes to fights, but the ones that do exist are strictly reinforced. They include:

•Both sides must consent to the battle
•No fighting can occur before or after school hours
•Fighting shouldn't occur outside of arenas
•Anything wagered on a fight must be given when the fight is over
•The specific rules of the fight can be decided by the participants, but other than that anything goes
•Lose to a battle in student council or a club captain can result Rank deduction or a club disband

For some people, fights are their main source of Ranks but for others who can do well in their studies they don't need fights to pass. But if you really wish to excel in this school, you're going to have to fight.

Hurrah! A Thread!

Now what are the limits for the powers? Does every student have to start with a power that they know of? I like the idea of a character having to learn about their new powers.

Also I love your signature picture. Sorry random but I had to say that.

To answer your second question, yes every student have to start with a power that they know of, and to answer your first question, the limits of power can have Positives and Negatives sides

Akane

"I'll never give up! I'll keep fighting until my last breath, if it means proving I'm the strongest!"

AKANE

---

NAME:
Natsumiko Akane

AGE:
16

YEAR LEVEL:
1st Year

CLASS RANK:
Rank C

FACTION:
Undecided

POWERS:
None that she is aware of yet, but there is a power dwelling inside her

PERSONALITY:

Only one word describes Akane's attitude, and that word is determined. She's a headstrong young woman who seeks to prove herself by any means that she is the top dog, and she will never give up no matter how hard it gets for her. A strong will which is only matched by her compassion for others...and her addiction to spicy foods. Her appetite as well may be the only thing that outmatches her gung ho attitude.

BIO:

Name a school to anyone in all of the land, and chances are, they will tell you Akane Natsumiko has been kicked out of it for fighting other students. Akane was born and raised in the Ikagumi Province, in a town called Shogo, a town that was revered for its history of raising proud warriors. Akane herself aspired to be such, but being a girl, most instructors would not teach her, other than her father. In school, she never really had many friends. Her closest friend however was Misao Sakurada, the supposed cursed offspring of a woman and a wolf demon.

Misao was always being picked on by the other kids, until one day Akane came to her rescue, punching a kid so hard in the face he flew backwards. Akane was kicked out for the ensuing fight and transferred to another school. Fortunately, Misao followed her wherever she went.

Through the years, Akane had burned her way through school after school, being kicked out of nearly all. Either she was fighting to protect her best friend Misao or just fighting to prove she was the strongest to some jetk who challenged her. Due to her nasty reputation as well, some schools wouldn't even allow her through the front door.

Eventually, the only school left was Tatakai Academy, a school itself that had a nasty reputation for fighting students.

Misao

"Redhead is my best friend! You break her heart, I'll break your face!"

Misao

---

NAME:
Sakurada Misao

AGE:
16

YEAR LEVEL:
1st Year

CLASS RANK:
Rank C

FACTION:
Undecided

POWERS:
Being half wolf demon, Misao can move quicker than most humans and has a heightened sense of smell. She can also grow her nails to be sharp as claws and unleash a deafening wolf howl

PERSONALITY:
Though she can be hot-headed at times and very opinionated, Misao has a cheerful and bubbly persona that tends to get on people's nerves sometimes. This happiness and upbeat optimism she displays however only serve to mask her inner turmoil of being the offspring of a father who did not want her and a town that ridiculed her. She also has severe self esteem issues, as she becomes extremely angry towards anyone who mocks either her ears and tail or her weight, a desire to be wanted, as she constantly clings to her best friend Akane, and a lack of confidence.

Akane is about the only good thing in her life, and Misao never wants to lose that. It is possible she may even have romantic feelings for her best friend, but never reveals them. Either way, Misao doesn't like it when people hurt Akane, and she's been known to be increasingly jealous towards anyone who shows Akane too much attention. Unlike her best friend though, Misao has more of a sweet tooth and hates spicy foods. She'd rather take a plate full of chocolate than a bowl of ramen drizzled with sriracha.

BIO:
Said to be cursed, many people in Shogo mocked Misao or avoided her outright. This caused the girl in her childhood to become very withdrawn and self loathing.

Misao was the child of a human mother and an unknown wolf demon as her father. Her mother had passed away during childbirth, and with her father abandoning her, the child was left with none to care for her, other than her grandmother. Her grandmother was a sweet old woman, but she was frail and sickly for most of her life. Eventually, she too passed away, and Misao was completely alone. The townspeople had no choice but to be her guardians, but none would care for the supposed cursed child. In school, she was the constant target of bullying. Children threw rocks and old food at her, called her names. No one, not even the teachers would dare to help poor Misao, until one day when a kid threw a paticularly large stone at her and cut her forehead.

Misao fell to her knees crying, blood dripping down her face. The boy laughed at her, spitting all sorts of awful insults. Then suddenly, this red haired girl, Akane her name being, came charging at him and punched him square in the nose. The kid flew back a good two feet before skittering across the dirt. Misao was amazed and thanked Akane for standing up for her.

Since that day, Misao has followed Akane to every school she's been kicked out of, through every black eye and bloody nose. The two had become the dearest of friends, always sticking up for one another, but to Misao, perhaps Akane was more than a friend. She dilligently supports Akane's desire to prove herself, but Misao hopes this year she doesn't get into too much trouble at Tatakai Academy. She's heard there are some pretty tough students here and worries Akane might get torn to shreds by them. However, knowing her best friend, she'll probably be dragging the fiery redhead out of a hallway full of unconcious students with broken noses and shattered jawbones.

[Jurassic Weeb]

Name: Ryuuji Minamoto
Gender: Male
Age: 16
Year: First-year
Rank: C
Faction/club: None
Power: Memory Immersion- Making skin-to-skin contact with Ryuuji results in a transfer of the memory strongest in an individual's mind at the time. Whose memory is transferred depends on who initiates contact; if Ryuuji initiated contact then his memory is transferred; if the other individual initiated contact then their memory is transferred; if the contact is the result of an accident then the transfer is two-way. Once the memory has been transferred the "receiver" undergoes the same emotions and pain the "sender" did in the span of less than a second. Either way the process takes a small toll on Ryuuji's brain, and transferring more emotional/painful memories tends to take a lot out of him. One side-effect to stronger memories is something that's been dubbed "emotional bleed" where the receiver begins feeling the sender's emotions in the memories (such as anger). If the emotional bleed is strong enough the receiver can react in ways they can't control.
Bio: Ryuuji lost his parents at a young age and was adopted by his grandfather and it was discovered shortly after that he possessed a weak psychic ability. Utilizing old contacts in both the military and school systems Ryuuji's grandfather made him undergo experiments to forcibly strengthen his psychic ability. However his grandfather ultimately deemed him a failure, finding his grandson's ability "less than useful". To say this upset Ryuuji was an understatement and in retaliation he put his grandfather through some of his most painful memories, both physical and emotional. The emotional stress of it all caused a heart attack, killing Ryuuji's grandfather. Since then he has been a ward of the state; while he doesn't wish to fight unless necessary his powers mean that a school like Tatakai is absolutely necessary.
Other: - Wields a scythe in combat, and is quite proficient with it.
- Due to everything he's went through Ryuuji can withstand a considerable amount of physical and mental pain before it can become incapacitating.
- For the most part he's needed to live in his own dorm. In addition to this Ryuuji also needs to wear gloves whenever others are around; the only exception to this is during fights, where he can use his ability to his advantage by providing a brief window to attack, defend, or retreat via memory immersion.

Oh okay. I wanted to go with an "normal " guy who has powers but doesn't know what kind of power he has just yet. I just didn't want a guy who could level a building with a smile. Sort of what Rusalka was doing.

@sassy1085 Gonna plug in one more character later tomorrow. Just a heads up.

[NewShoesForever]

Akari

Name: Akari Funagami

Gender: Female

Age: 16

Year Level: 1st

Rank: C

Faction/Club: None for now

Personality: Akari tries to put forward the appearance of being cool and aloof, but isn't particularly good at keeping up the illusion. In truth, she is excitable and enthusiastic, with a zest for life and a habit of taking massive risks in the name of fun. Her loud, boistrous nature makes her naturally magnetic, but makes it hard for her to navigate more sensitive topics.

Despite her fathers protests, Akari is still an avid gambler, though truth be told, she enjoys games of all kinds.

Power: Chance Manipulation - Akari can remotely control the result of any chance based event she can see. For instance, she can determine what side a coin lands on or what the top card of a deck will be. The restrictions are that she cannot manipulate events that seem random but are actually controlled (like a game of darts, which is based on skill) and she cannot influence events she sees via electronics (So she can't, for instance, rig the lottery by watching the winning number be drawn on tv).

Bio: Akari was raised by her father, a divorced convenience store owner named Shiro Funagami. Shiro was kind to a fault and very patient, but not overly bright and had no idea how to raise a little girl. He and Akari lived rather simply, but the two did their best to keep eachother in good spirits.

Eventually, Shiro's store started turning less and less of a profit. The two began living in abject squalor. In order to ease the burden on her father, Akari began to search for away to supplement his income. This is when she stumbled into the seedy world of gambling. Intimidated at first, Akari soon found that she was actually a gifted gambler. Almost supernaturally gifted.

Eventually, every reputable casino for miles had thrown her out and Shiro, not wishing to see his daughter fall any further into the disreputable part of society and suggested that she attend Tatakai Academy to develope her powers and find a safer, more reliable use for them.

Tohru

"You hit them, they get back up! I hit them, they stay down!"

TOHRU

---

NAME:
Itagaki Tohru

AGE:
18

YEAR LEVEL:
3rd Year

CLASS RANK:
Rank S

FACTION:
Student Council/Vice President

POWERS:
The only power Tohru has is her raw strength, and that is all she needs. According to her, everyone can keep their fancy superhero bullshit. A true warrior relies only on their inner fury and their skill in battle

PERSONALITY:
Trying to be friends with Tohru is like trying to be friends with an eight hundred pound grizzly bear. No matter how sweet your words are to her or how big your stupid smile is, chances are Tohru will tell you to fuck off or just beat the ever living shit out of you. A loner by nature, she thrives on maintaining her solidarity and has no desire to make friends with anyone. To her, friends just get in the way. In the Student Council, she's a ruthless tyrant who spares no one from a beating if they get out of line. Many have come to fear her for this reason.

Tohru shows loyalty to no one, other than her superior, President Tsukiko Gin. She is devoted to defending Tsukiko and upholding the law of the school. However, it is more put of burgeoning respect than compassion Tohru serves Tsukiko, as she has no real feelings or emotions towards her...or anyone for that matter. It's difficult to tell when this young girl became such a monster.

BIO:
The half Japanese half Chinese Tohru was born on a military base near Hong Kong. Her father was a decorated officer, who had seen combat in both Afghanistan and in the Demilitarized Zone between North and South Korea, but he was also a beligerent drunk, who on occasions abused her and her mother physically. Eventually, her mother divorced him and took Tohru with her to live with relatives in Kowloon. It was in Kowloon the young Tohru was first introduced to the martial arts. Kowloon was such a rough and repugnant city anyways. If you didn't know how to fight, then you only knew how to die.

Street gangs ruled the city, and with guns outlawed in China, they settled their disputes the old fashioned way, bare knuckle brawling.

Tohru fell into the street gang life at age twelve. She was taught how to fight by the leader of her gang, a brute of a man named Lao Shang. Lao Shang also taught her how to use nunchaku, switchblade knives, and other crude improvised weaponry in street brawls. Often, these brawls were bloody as hell. Tohru couldn't count on her fingers how many times she saw a guy's head get split open by a baseball bat or a roundhouse kick, or what guts looked like when a guy got cut open with a switchblade or stabbed fifty times.

It was a brutal time in Tohru's life, and she had the scars to prove it.

Eventually, as she grew into her early teens, her mother had passed away from cancer and her aunt and uncle, no longer wishing to take care of the delinquet she had become, shipped Tohru to live with her father's brother in Japan. Unlike his drunk ass brother though, Tohru's other uncle cared for her and tried to act as a father figure. He even sent her to the prestigious Tatakai Academy. He hasmd no idea however the school had a violent reputation, nor that by sending Tohru there would be the makings of a cold blooded monster.

On the day she was enrolled, Tohru began carving her name into the school. Her previous reputation as a tough delinquet from Kowloon pretty much garnered her some unwanted attention. Before too long, many students stepped up to challenge her and many were cut down by the Blue Dragon, as they began calling her. Fight after fight, she rose through the ranks of the school, until she was seated in the Student Council as Vice President.

To this day, to speak her name instills fear into the hearts of even the strongest students, and if you dare to challenge her, then you had best have your grave already dug.
