Slots Taken: 12 | Slots Available: 0

Introduction

Kokoro Academy, like many others, is an institution in Musutafu dedicated to the training of Quirks utilization, however, has the reputation of being just a beginner's school for aspiring heroes. Specifically, those who weren’t deemed to be as blessed with excess talent and skill. A good proportion of its students leave after the first year, transferring to what they consider to be better schools. So far, this method has been working quite well for a handful of former students. Along with their low-standard facilities, insufficient financial support, and lack in personnel, the persistence of this pattern over the years, eventually lead to Kokoro Academy’s current status as the worst school in the country.

Fortunately, the upcoming school year will be different. Management of the school has been shifted to the Youthful Heroine, Misao "Childish" Okawa. Although still a licensed professional hero, given her age, she has leaned away from the public eye for the past few years and has been dedicating her time towards her personal projects. Currently, Kokoro Academy has yet to give out an official statement on the supposed overhaul in their facilities, curriculum, and staff. However, rumor has it that a significant amount of funds has been invested in the school’s renovation and their innovative way of educating.

For one reason or another, you’ve taken interest into Kokoro Academy and have applied despite not knowing the details to its up and coming changes. One thing’s for sure though, you certainly want to become a professional hero and Kokoro Academy seems like the perfect school for you.

Quirks

The setting of My Hero Academia is brimming with a wide variety of unique quirks, with some being obviously stronger than others. However, not all of them seem to translate well when shifted to a text-based roleplay, especially the powerful ones. With that in mind, the rule I want everyone to keep in mind when deciding on a quirk is KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid).

Several quirks seem to follow this idea, so hopefully we can adhere to this as well when making characters. Good example's would be Steel (Tetsutetsu), Tail (Ojiro), Somnabulist (Midnight), Foldabody (Edgeshot), and Erasure (Eraserhead).

However, this does not mean that I will reject more complex quirks, such as Creation (Momo) and Comic (Manga). The process though, of working on the details of these types of quirks and the inevitable nerfs, might cause too much of a deviation from the initial proposed quirk, leading to dissatisfaction from you guys. So yeah. If a quirk has the potential to be imbalanced right from the start, I advice to avoid it entirely.

Sakimoto Hiroki, 'The Origami King'

H i r o k i

Personal Dossier

---

_Name

Sakimoto Hiroki

_Age

15

_Origin

Saitama, Saitama Profecture

_{Physical Description}

Standing 172 cm tall and weighing approx 81 kg, Hiroki's entire body is actually composed of multiple sheets of layered paper of equal mass, folding, rolling, and bending into a humanoid shape, giving him a perpetual white color. The paper sheets inter lays over each other in such a way that only close examination can determine the individual pages. Features that provide any more definition other than shaping his volume (I.E, his eyes, eyebrows, creases of his cloths) actually appear drawn in pencil and ink in multiple shades. Hiroki perfers to utilize some of his paper body to produce his own cloths. While these clothes never display any color other than what can be found on a gray scale of white to black, his ability to produce patterns of pencil or ink allow him to cosmetically accessorize his attire. Given the option of his paper clothes and regular ones, he prefers his paper ones, since he will be able to utilize his powers without being limited by the cloth. He particularly hates the jumpsuits for how restrictive they are.

_{Characterization}

Believing himself more talented, more privileged, and just better than everyone else... Hiroki comes across as a bit of jerk and a bully. Arrogant to a fault, unflinchingly proud, he tries to keep an air of coolness and superiority. When it comes to heroing, he is dismissive on anyone he views as weaker than him, believing that either because of their quirk, or their personal skill, they should just give up on being a hero and just go home, to keep themselves from getting hurt. He is, as a rule, rude to everyone, being particularly blunt and attacking someone's personal failings, all for the sake of making himself more impressive at others expense. Against anyone that doesn't like the way he does things will either be ridiculed, laughed at, or challenged. He is more than happy to knock back down some upstart who thinks he or she deserves to play in the big leagues. He will never cross the line in these fights, attempting to humiliate his challengers rather than severely hurt them. If he ever gets a rival, Hiroki will constantly try to one up them and make sure they know it, unintentionally pushing them forward to keep up with him.

If forced to deal with others, or he finds himself actually engaged in some kind of mutual respect/ rivalry/ or general fondness, Hiroki can be surprisingly insightful and helpful, if generally unpleasant. In a group situation, he will try to take command of the group and plan out a way past the problem. He's not stupid, far from it, and he actually takes stock of what others are capable of. He doesn't leave people, nor does he want anyone to get hurt, but hes not sensitive about it either, preferring a stick over the carrot when it comes to reinforcement. Any plan that he implements almost invariably leaves him at the forefront of any fight and the main target for any villain. Onlookers will no doubt believe it's just him showing off, but his intentions are surprisingly selfless in these situations. When it comes to hero work, Hiroki does not mess around. While he seems prickly, arrogant and aloof outside of battle, he goes all in with protecting people, even to the detriment of his own safety. He'll protect someone before chasing down a dangerous villain, and while he'll blame the victim for not being strong enough that they needed saving in the first place, he can live with keeping someone alive.

Hiroki isn't completely heartless. If it seems like he's not going to get rid of someone, or if they have impressed him in some way, he will on occasion offer advice, aid, or even some companionship. While being a jerk, he's not a loner. Showing some appreciation for his art or feeding his ego is generally a very fast way to get on his good side. Only when it comes to hero work does he become quite abrasive, critical, and condescending. He is He's a bit softer on girls, commonly flirting if the situation allows for it.

_{Personal History}

WIP

_{Character Development & Conceptualization}

Hiroki is the typical foil to the main character. The one designed to challenge and test them as their first competition. He's the cool bully. The pompous jerk with a bit of talent. He's designed to be overcome, to stand as the hero's or heroes' first accomplishment so that they learn something about themselves, and Hiroki gets a taste of humble pie, something he needs. He's disillusioned about who should be a hero because he doesn't want anyone weak or unprepared getting hurt. He believes that if you don't put in your all, you shouldn't even try. The less people in the line of fire, the safer everyone is. He would put the whole world on his shoulders if he could. It's flawed reasoning.

Learning that he needs to nurture his companions as they need to teach him, he needs to learn to reconnect with people, to give in to accepting that while they might be hurt, and might even die, its not a reason to avoid making connections. While his goal presently is to be a hero so strong he doesn't need anyone else to keep everyone safe, maybe becoming a superstar idol in the process, my goal for Hiroki is to become a member of a super team, developing relationships that would last til the end of his heroing career. Why yes I do believe in the power of friendship.

On a power standpoint, Hiroki is capable of manipulating paper and his body for a number of feats. While he can layer paper which can become surprisingly tough, I want to eventually have his power be able to adjust the paper on a molecular level, turning the organic carbons of paper as hard as diamonds, and the titanium oxide treatments of paper to become titanium tools and edges. Eventually I want his powers to increase in limit and scope, perhaps going beyond paper, having ink and graphite fall under his purview. Perhaps being able to make and control constructs of ink and paper or being able to eat written words to obtain knowledge at a lightening fast rate. The anime read or die has some examples of ridiculous uses of paper mastery.

Abilities & Talents

_{Quirk Type}

Mutation

_{Quirk Description}

He calls his quirk Origami King. He has complete control over the paper of his body and any paper he comes into contact with. Regardless of kinds, any paper that is designed for the purposes of containing ink can become part of his body. He can use books, magazines, printer paper, etc in order to repair damage to himself, but that's just the most mundane of his abilities.

Each sheet of paper can float, fly, fold, layer, and shape themselves on his whim. This allows him to fly or even break apart and refold elsewhere. Doors mean nothing to him as he can just go under, he is resistant to blunt weapons, slashes, and bullets, grabbing him doesn't do anything, and he doesn't actually have any 'weakpoints' like eyes or throat as someone else would. His entire body can extend as far as a 10 meter sphree, with any paper separated beyond this range loses its properties of being under his control. When flying, his body looks like a mass of white birds or a tumble of paper sheets rolling through high winds seemingly at random. The paper can layer into armor, twist and fold into cutting edges, or bunch up into solid points that apply pressure in precision strikes. He can even use his body to envelope others, essentially applying a clinch all his own. Any strength is proportional to the amount of paper that is used. If all of his mass is used to a singular purpose, the effects is above human in potency. Room temperature except for extremes have no effect on him, likewise he could get nourishment from absorbing paper, but eating and drinking is still something he needs to do.

While he doesn't seem to have any eyes or ears, he can't perceive anything more than a normal person would. He believes he can use his paper to spy on people as a sheet of paper can act as his eyes and ears, but with the 10 meter sphere limit he can currently produce, its not as useful as he would like. He also needs to concentrate on that piece, ignoring everything else.

Being composed of paper, Hiroki is vulnerable to AOE attacks. Fire can be very deadly to him. Some paper types resist burning, but most of him isnt. Water can make his movements very weak and sluggish. In the rain, without an umbrella, he would need to use a significant portion of himself to keep the center mass dry. Wind also can be quite annoying as he needs free range of motion to control his paper, possibly being hampered more than a larger more solid object would. Any damage to his paper represents damage to his whole of his body. Some sheets represent minor scratches and brusing while a significant percentage loss represents a very serious injury.

_{Other Talents & Attributes}

Hero Training growing up in a family of heroes, he actually has some experience under his belt. Rescue procedures, law enforcement, survival techniques, basic carpentry, first aid, tactical planning, but mostly his training dealt with how to fight and subdue criminals. He especially is skilled with using his paper to bind up and trip enemies, sometimes even baiting them into disadvantageous situations. More than one criminal would waste precious seconds trying to shoot him, even as the next step he took was on one of Hiroki's papers. The next thing he would know is that he had the rug literally pulled out from under him.

Artist Hiroki finds drawing to be something relaxing. He secretly would love to be a cartoonist or manga artist if he wasn't already dedicated to being a hero. His drawing skills are impeccable and he often uses his own drawings as the logos for the shirts he makes for himself or even temporary tattoos.

Diligent Student while he seems cool, calm, clever, and smart, Hiroki actually studies alot more than most people would suspect.
He acts like a delinquent but he does his homework, writes his reports, and studies for quizes and tests. He's above average in intelligence but his intellectual talents are strictly for how to deal with people and some street smarts.

Movie/Anime Buff if he gets some free time between school, training, etc, he loves movies. He commonly just would have a movie or anime streaming in the background of the room while he is studying simply for the white noise.

Origami he can fold anything out of paper. This goes without saying.

I'm going to adjust this to the requirements. Plus it gives a chance to see if the quirk will work.

[Toots]

@ShwiggityShwah Quirk seems too strong and does too much. Look at Edgeshot's Quirk. Or at least the core idea behind since his level of mastery seems to high.

[ShwiggityShwah]

@Toots

Hoping to have a quirk that acts more like a gas, swarm, or cloud than something stretchy. I'm going to limit the types of paper he could use, some of the powers and try again.

The fact that hes weak against fire and water and wind, common quirk elements would offset the power level and versatility. Np though I'm happy to work through it.

[Toots]

@ShwiggityShwah I'll try going into more detail on why the quirk isn't acceptable at its current state.

Will be added to the OP.

Quirks 101:

The setting of My Hero Academia is brimming with a wide variety of unique quirks, with some being obviously stronger than others. However, not all of them seem to translate well when shifted to a text-based roleplay, especially the powerful ones.

@Toots

Dont worry man I got it. I'll have to do something like EdgeShot. The alternative has too many applications.

Datari Shun

Name: Datari Shun
Age: 15
Gender: Male
Appearance:
Height: 5'6"
Weight: 124 lbs

At first glance, Shun lacks the larger-than-life physical presence typical of big name heroes; he's lean and effeminate, and could probably pass for a girl in the right lighting. While he's clearly not setting any strength records, his build believably matches a runner or gymnast, and he has the flexibility and leg strength to back it up. Small areas of his body seem to dissociate into pixel-like bits at random, seemingly without physical consequence; as if he were a video game character experiencing a weird graphical glitch. The frequency of this phenomenon seems to increase when Shun is nervous or unsettled, or when he's recently used his quirk.

Shun is nothing if not energetic, and can be frequently seen exhibiting some idle tic when standing or sitting still; ranging from innocent tapping of fingers to outright bouncing up and down on his feet. He's likewise very animated when talking, channeling his usual enthusiasm and boundless energy into grand gesticulations and dramatic faces.

Quirk: Pixelation - Shun is capable of short-ranged teleportation (at most a few meters) by discorporating himself into small cuboid bits. His movement can be vaguely predicted by watching the direction of movement the pixels seem to flow in immediately upon his pixelation, and he requires time to restabilize his body after each "jump". Repeated use of his quirk in a short period of time leads to an increasingly unstable body, resulting in impaired vision, coordination, movement, and eventually cognitive function at high levels of bodily corruption.

Questions:

• Given its reputation, why apply to Kokoro Academy?
  "Given my, ahem, stellar academic record and grades, did I really have another choice? Who wants to go to U.A. anyway? I don't. And that's not just because I applied and got rejected. I'm sure Kokoro isn't as bad as the rumors say! I don't need state of the art institutions to be a good hero, what matters is attitude and positivity!"
• Why do you want to be a professional hero?
  "Because they're awesome! Wait, that's not a good answer, let me try again! I don't necessarily think someone like me will get too famous or anything, my quirk isn't too flashy and it's not all that awe-inspiring. But, I think it's a real honor to have people look up to you and trust you with their safety, even if it's just a few fans. Even the lowest ranked sidekick can change a person's life if that hero helps them in their time of need, and I aspire to be that change."
• What kind of professional hero do you want to become?
  "The kind of hero everyone should want to be, one who makes people feel safe and protected! Although, even if people underestimate me, that's just an advantage in my book. Kinda hurts my pride, but... an advantage nevertheless! I think I could be a good asset to a group in a combat or rescue situation. I'm fast, and I can sweep an area for fleeing villains or civilians in peril at the very least. Plus I'm gonna be super good at fighting! That's what they teach in hero programs, right?
• Best describe yourself in five sentences.
  "Well, people say I ramble a lot and just say whatever comes to mind and that I have this 'stream of consciousness' way of talking. Which is a bit true, but I like to think it makes me honest! It's very important, in my opinion, to let other people in on your thought process during high-stress situations, so that everyone can contribute to thinking out the best plan. I may not get model grades, but I like to think I have a shrewd mind for tactics when it counts, since my quirk's main advantage in a fight is positioning. And I'm a great team player! I don't expect much glory anyway, and it's better to efficiently save people than show off for the media, I think. Admittedly, a lot of people think I'm annoying and that I have no regard for personal space but I swear I try my best to be friendly! They must just be shy, or something."
• What are you interests and hobbies apart?
  "Kickboxing! I was never very big, even when I was little, so whenever I told people I wanted to be a hero they'd, y'know, laugh. That's why I had to learn to fight! I think my mom ended up suggesting it originally. Mostly because she claimed it would help me 'burn off energy' so I wouldn't keep 'bouncing off the walls' because 'Shun, you broke the expensive vase' and I told her I was sorry like a hundred times but- Sorry, off topic. But I ended up with pretty nice legs out of the deal! Martial arts also prepared me for getting beat up a lot! Which is a useful skill in the hero profession, I'd assume? I'm into the usual teenager stuff too, video games and what not. People think my quirk lets me cheat, though. I think it's the look, because I definitely haven't found out a way to do that yet."
• Are there any notable accomplishments you want to us to be aware of?
  "Well, I did mention I already knew how to fight, sort of. I can't exactly overpower people per se, but I can just warp to whereever their guard is down, at least in theory. I almost won a kickboxing competition once but then a guy who was so big, he had to have a muscle quirk, kicked me in the jaw. Which was totally unfair, because my quirk was against the rules but his was fine! And it might've been only the third round but I could've totally took all the guys after him if he wasn't there!
• Tell us something about your quirk that most might not know? Any events or memories, be it joyous or ill, tied to it?
  "I can take stuff with me when I jump! Small things, mostly, like clothes. I have to be touching it. I've never really tried with another person because I'm afraid I might not put them back together right. It's a real pain when I don't coalesce correctly after a jump, so I'd hate to do that to someone else. Especially if they don't just fix themselves like I do, they could be all pixel-y forever! And that's if my quirk can even handle something that big, most people are bigger than I am! As for stories, there was that thing I mentioned earlier with the vase. I may have been trying to literally bounce off the walls with my quirk and I may have overused it and it may have resulted in a very confused and sick-feeling me knocking the expensive art piece off the nice table. I swear, I was just trying to practice for when I'd be scaling walls in an alleyway in a big fight with a villain! Does that happen, or is that just a movie thing?"
• Why should we consider you over the other applicants? What can you offer that they cannot?
  "I think that a lot of people would be bitter about only getting into a school with such a, erm, reputation and might not do their best. That's why I think that their negativity needs something cheery to balance it out! I used to put myself down a lot when I was little, and I learned that negativity doesn't breed success. So, I think I'd be conductive to classroom culture! I swear I'm not disruptive. At least not intentionally, sometimes I just get really eager to understand something but the teacher usually looks at me like an idiot when I ask. Actually, in hindsight, it may have just been because I usually blurted it out. Beyond that, though, I think I have the makings of a good hero if I work hard, and would be extremely honored to take part in your academic program in order to live out my dreams!"

[Toots]

@Scribe of Thoth Aside from being familiar with that OC, everything seems fine so far. I'll hold off the critiquing later on. I mean, it'll be more of clarifications rather than nerfs.

[Scribe of Thoth]

@Toots
Honestly, I just found the art on google and liked the look. Do tell if it seems like a ripoff.

[geminironin]

Here's a quirk idea:
BPM: User draws kinetic energy from an object and transfers it into another. Range is only about 6 inches from user's hands. Large amounts of energy can be transferred very quickly, but the user cannot store much energy in their body without backlash.

EDIT: Done.

Amelia

Name: Rose, Amelia
Age: 15
Gender: Female
Appearance:

Height: 5'4 / 165cm
Weight: 123 lbs / 56kg

---

Personality:

Amelia is a cheerful and somewhat energetic girl, who is always seen smiling and stuffing her face in food. She is normally nice to others and doesn't bother anyone around her intentionally, unless something comes in between her and her meals. She will become rather overprotective or competitive over food and refuse to share with anyone, but she will accept any free offers without much hesitation. This has resulted in her being in debt to kind strangers quite often in the past. Thankfully, the cheeky girl doesn't feel the slightest amount of guilt or shame whenever she walks out on a debt anymore.

Friendships, she cherishes them and wants to make sure she doesn't lose anyone close to her. However, Amelia doesn't make a lot of friends mainly because of her poor table manners. Some people have tried to take advantage of her in the past for free meals at her family's restaurant, but it was a short lived relationship once she became aware of it. She occasionally attempts to build friendships through her favorite activity, eating contests, but she always end up scamming someone out of their money for a free meal.

She does have a strong sense of justice, coming from a proud heroic family and often imitates her favorite heroes she sees on the news. There will be a critical time where she has to has to do whatever it takes to win, even if it leads to her own self destruction.

---

Quirk:
Name: Devour
Classification: Mutant

Description:

Amelia's digestive system has mutated to the point where the rapid breakdown of sustenance massively boosts her physical abilities for a short period of time. The amount of food she consumes increases the duration of it's effect, but only by a couple of minutes. Additionally, certain types of foods and even the quality determines how much power she gains as well. For example, meat based dishes will give Amelia more of a physical boost compared to fruits or vegetables due to her personal preference for meat.

It has been shown that Amelia can eat massive quantities of food at once to no ill effect. However, if she were to accidentally consume something inedible then she will immediately suffer from indigestion and become really ill.

Currently unknown to her, different types of food may provide additional benefits or hazards. Some of these range from becoming quickly intoxicated after consuming a small amount of alcohol or enhancing her speed through sugary consumables such as candy. While having meat as her primary source of power may be good in terms of raw strength and durability, a well balanced diet will favor Amelia's stats in the long run.

The downside of her quirk is that Amelia has to constantly eat if she wants to be at peak performance. Due to the rapid breakdown of food, she burns energy for every action she makes. Her quirk is not suited for any long training sessions or dragged out battles without any food nearby. If there is no food present in her body, then she will suffer from an accelerated and vicious form of starvation. Which will leave her body incapacitated in less than a day. Overstepping the limits of her quirk, even just a little, can be life threatening to her.

Questions:

Given its reputation, why apply to Kokoro Academy? "I didn't really pay much attention to my options, but a friend of mine told me this school was best suited for someone like me! Saved me a lot of time from trying to choose one for myself! I trust my friend's judgment, so I will do my best to exceed the academy's expectations!"

Why do you want to be a professional hero? "It's been my dream ever since I was in kindergarten. No, probably even before that! My parents were heroes at one point, so I was born to be one for sure! I know they weren't that well known during their time, but they were still professional heroes. One day, I will make them proud by being one of the top ten heroes! That's what I'm aiming for!"

What kind of professional hero do you want to become? "I want to be kind of hero who cheers everyone up! I don't like seeing people who look down and feel like they lost all hope. I want to be able to change their negative feelings to more positive ones. If everyone is in high spirits, then they can accomplish anything!"

Best describe yourself in five sentences. "Let's see, I'm a human teenage girl. I have pink hair, blue eyes, and I'm kind of short. I love to eat...a lot, but that is part of my quirk. I do get a bit greedy sometimes and steal food from people's plates, but I'm working on correcting that behavior! Sometimes, people say my quirk is the reason why I'm not fat, but they don't know I do intense training on a weekly basis!"

What are your interests and hobbies? "I have a strong sense of direction! I can draw up an accurate map of a city in my head, just by using the local food stops as points of interest! That's right, I would immediately know which route is best whenever the situation calls for it! I'm also a natural cook, so I'm highly interested in any volunteer work around the cafeteria. After all, I did grow up in my family's restaurant!"

Are there any notable accomplishments you want to us to be aware of? "Yes! I'm currently on an undefeated streak with a total of 267 victories and counting in competitive eating! Well, I guess that's not really much of a real accomplishment now that I think about it. All of those victories are not from official events. Never thought about participating in one before, I don't know why. Hmm, now I'm looking forward to join the next event and build up my credentials!"

Tell us something about your quirk that most might not know? Any events or memories, be it joyous or ill, tied to it? "One time, I tried to fast in order to save money. However, I became hospitalized by the end of the day. It turns out, without food in my stomach it will eventually try to eat me from the inside. It was a painful experience I don't want to go through again. That is why I carry around snacks with me everyday and try to eat something every hour or so."

Why should we consider you over the other applicants? "What can you offer that they cannot? That's easy! Whatever the other applicants can do, I can do better! Wait, no that's kind of rude. There are probably better and more worthy applicants than me. But, I won't let that thought discourage me! I'm going to do my best and not fall behind anyone! Heroes never give up and neither will I! I hope that you will have me!"

[Toots]

@geminironin After transferring the energy, what happens? Is it like Gambit's ability or am I missing something?

@Animal Similar to Sugar Rush but a bit vague with the conditions.

[Duoya]

@Toots
Little rushed, probably too OP. Was just trying to get something out since all the cool people were posting

Hedoro Gomi

Hedoro Gomi

Name: Hedoro, Gomi
Age: 15
Gender: Male
Appearance: Gomi, thanks to his quirk, is entirely composed of a thick sludge and is packed togethor into a relatively human form. His voice is created by vibrating his body, and is fairly deep and has a slight echo to it. He can weigh anywhere between 20 and 250 pounds, and can be between 10 inches and 7 feet in height. Due to his quirk, he is unable to wear most clothes, the best he can manage being masks and maybe a hat.
Quirk: Sludge Body
Gomi's quirk causes his entire body to be composed entirely of an extremely thick, mud-like substance. This alone renders him very resistant to most physical attacks, and he is capable of condensing himself enough to fit into a space as small as a 1.5 liter soda bottle, as well as shifting into different shapes with a few seconds of concentration (Although, this shifting must keep him in a relatively humanoid shape). Sludge Body's primary ability, however, is that Gomi is capable of fusing himself onto another person's body, usually after a minute or two of work. This offers the 'Host' a significant boost to strength (essentially adding Gomi's strength onto the host), but an even larger boost to durability - Not as strong as Gomi's own, but still enough to be better than many armors. Gomi can reabsorb blown off portions of his body, but this process takes minutes at the least, and many hours at most, making it useless in a fight.

Gomi's max limit to size is 7 feet, and fusing with people above that size is impossible. Excess sludge that is made via eating and drinking will simply be expelled like waste if the limit is already met. Due to his physiology, many healing quirks are ineffective on him, so the only reliable way to heal is to eat, drink, and hope that he isn't missing enough mass that he'll die. This healing process is very slow, and it could take months to recover a limbs worth of damage. Gomi is very weak to the cold, and can freeze very easily. He'll be fine after being thawed out, but freezing him while he is fused with someone will encase them in an icy prison. Gomi lacks fine motor manipulation, and cannot do things that require dexterity greater than that of a five year old.

Questions:

• Given its reputation, why apply to Kokoro Academy?
  "You guys already read the reports my last school sent over, so not much left to say. I got a couple stains on my record, and everybody loses their shit... Sorry for swearing, sir. Anyways, My record isn't clean enough by any stretch to make it into U.A or Shiketsu, so I ain't even gonna try them. Plus, uh... My grades aren't the best, so even with an okay quirk, I doubt most schools would accept me. This place was my first choice, so lucky you guys!"
• Why do you want to be a professional hero?
  "You probably already know since I'm applying, but my dad used to be... well, he was a villain. He also wasn't that good of a person - drank, hit me and mom sometimes, generally a D-bag. Eventually he was caught and locked up, and from then on, kids at every school I've been to either ignored me, beat me up, or tried to beat me up before my quirk made their tries pointless and then ignored me instead. My guess is they were scared before he was arrested, and they wanted to act like big shots for beating up a villains son.
  
  Ever since then, I've wanted nothing more than to be a pro hero - can you imagine the look on their face when I roll up on their house with a group of paparazzi or a hot wife, and then tell them that I'm a hero? And don't say it's petty, plenty of people who helped the world did it as a big middle finger to some random bully or a girl who rejected them or something.
  
  Oh, uh, and helping people is cool too, I guess."
• What kind of professional hero do you want to become?
  "I wanna do the flashy crap. The kinda stuff that gets your name on the news and people give you free stuff cause you're a badas- I mean, a cool dude. Other than the recognition, I don't really care what work I do - rescue work, fighting villains, anything is fine with me. As long as I got something to rub in people's faces when they talk crap about me or my family."
• Best describe yourself in five sentences.
  "I'm a bit rough around the edges, but I definitely mean well - that's what my mom told me to say, if I'm being honest with you. I personally think that I'm pretty easy to anger, and I'm not gonna lie and say I won't start any fights. I'd say that I have a pretty loose sense of honor in a fight, which you kinda need when it's hard to even aim your punches. Still, I know what's right and wrong, and I've tried to do the right thing all my life. Some people said that I'm not the best student, but it's hard to be when you can barely use a pencil... Yeah, that's why my grades aren't that good."
• What are you interests and hobbies apart?
  "Pretty hard to have many interests when you're made of mud. I like table top games since someone else can write my character sheets for me, and I guess anime is cool. I like listening to music, especially classical, and my mom said that I used to want to be a pianist before my quirk manifested. Does quirk training count as a hobby? I do that pretty often, especially since I lost most of my delicate manipulators. I'm pretty interested in law I guess - or, more specifically, mom was pretty interested in law since dad always got in trouble with it."
• Are there any notable accomplishments you want to us to be aware of?
  "If I had anything major, I wouldn't really need to be a hero to rub my success into people's faces. I guess my biggest accomplishment is that I went from being hospitalized as a child since my quirk made me lose mass constantly, to the point where I can even apply at a school for heroes. Not the greatest of achievements, but it took a lot of work and I'm proud of it."
• Tell us something about your quirk that most might not know? Any events or memories, be it joyous or ill, tied to it?
  "If I didn't know better, I'd say you guys didn't do your reading - this is probably to test me and see if I get pissed easy. Well, I do, but nice try at making me crack. My quirk comes from my dad, who is currently locked up in a penitentiary in a whole other prefecture, and he used it to be a pretty bad villain. I'll admit - he was probably better with it than I am, considering he can do the whole 'control people' thing, but I can do my own stuff. Plus, it caused me to have to redo a year of school since I spent a few months in the hospital learning how to use it.
  
  Anyways, back on track - while I'm mostly liquid, I'm actually pretty resistant to heat, and can take more heat than most normal people. In addition, I can fit through pretty much any space, and can condense myself to fit into small containers - planned on making that some special move, or something... Just need someone to open them for me. Not really a secret, but moving fast causes my body to make pretty loud noises, so stealth is a no go if I want to move. I haven't left a trail since I was a kid, but really porous stuff like sponges and sand make me lose mass quick, so I really don't like them."
• Why should we consider you over the other applicants? What can you offer that they cannot?
  "To be quite frank - I can take a lot of shit. You learn how when your dad has a power complex, your mom used to be scared of how you looked, and not even mentioning how the kids at school acted when they found out my dad was a killer. It doesn't matter what you throw at me, I'll take it and deal, which is a hell of a lot more than some people. If that ain't enough, my quirk synergizes well with pretty much anybody, so it'll be easier for the teacher to assign group work I guess? It's been a long day and I'm not used to being so formal, sorry if I'm reaching for straws here."

@Toots Mine's done for the most part. Critique me up fam

@Toots The object would shoot off in whatever direction it was moving, no explosions here. I wouldn't be able to transfer energy into something perfectly still, but even a little momentum would be enough. Like a solid wall wouldn't move with this ability, but a push on a car would let it work.

Got three ideas for Quirks that Imma throw at you.

Menace: Basically a Quirk that draws the attention of everyone in a certain radius to the user. At first it'll just be 'drawing attention', but later on, it can be advanced to making people feel intimidated/attracted. Basically gonna be an aggro tool. Has the most effect on people who can see the eyes, and is similarly countered if people close their eyes.

Rocket: Their arms can turn into armored gauntlets with rockets at the back of them, enabling them to hit really hard and really fast. Basically though, it's a physical power up Quirk with a rocket-y flavor. Further advancement would probably be stuff like manifesting rockets elsewhere, or bulking up the gauntlets, or sending out jet blasts. The rocket fuel probably runs off of GUTS AND DETERMINATION AND HEROIC SPIRIT and doesn't have a limit to how hard they can run, but overheat will cause some nasty shit.

Ride-On King: Telekinetic Quirk that allows them to turn anything into a goddamn hoverboard, as long as said object isn't locked down by anything, and as long as they can get on top of the object. If they ride on a person, said person won't be able to control where they go, but will still be able to move around and smack the rider off if they want to. Ascending is difficult, descending is easy, and the amount of tricks are super wild.

@Duoya@Scribe of Thoth I'll get back to you guys.

@geminironin Wouldn't that entail slowing/stopping others too? I think it'll be hard to moderate since it kinda has the potential to be overpowered.

@ERode I actually like all three.
