I think Iru cuts a menacing appearance but is ultimately doing the right thing...so public views on him are torn between awe/inspiration and fear.

Hmm.
Well, Buster Girl probably got Final Trigger very shortly before the RP start, so everyone probably doesn't know her very well yet.
As for Kyoko, I don't think the public makes the connection between a loli and Strike Inferno at least.

Flip's probably too new to have much of a reputation, although there is some talk of criminals claiming to be attacked by an alien. Then again, that could just be tabloid fodder, right? What kind of alien wears a freakin' scarf anyhow?

Well, she's probably been a cyborg for as long as she's been in highschool, so... that's over two years, at least. Probably one of the more well known out of the cast. Don't really know what people would think about her, but hey.

Oh, I know at least Vita and Raineh got it too. XD I was just weird and assumed everyone joining something like this would be familiar with Kamen Rider, I guess. ^^;
I'm kinda late, but I got it too. (Favorite Rider Series is a tie between W and OOO and Favorite Sentai would be...Shinkenger. o3o)

Thanks.Alright, we're pretty close to beginning now so I need to know something about the characters. Or the heroes and villains, at any rate.Based on your back stories, I can gather that they've been at this hero thing for a while now, so my question is: where is your character in the eyes of the public? Basically, how popular are they, what are they saying, etc. It's kind of necessary so I can build up the atmosphere, like subjects for npc chatter or something. That and I'm curious about it. You can do what you want with this one, I won't be too picky.
Legion is quite the showman so...people like him. xD
Being a showman doesn't make a likable hero.
Take Kabuto. Holy shit was Tendou a showman...but he was far from likeable :P

I think that probably comes from always going on about your grandmother.

I agree with that. That and the whole "I WAS BORN FOR THIS! IT'S MY DESTINY!" thing didn't help at all.

Alright guys, expect another villain!
Appearance: 5'5" and all of it in your face
Name: Haruko Mori
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Personality: Cheerful and full of energy even first thing in the morning, Haruko is best known for being a bit of an airhead - her grades are barely passing and she never seems to focus in class. She prefers instead to talk with as many people as possible, even total strangers, though this has earned her plenty of friends both within and without the school. The only school-related thing she really does well in is sports clubs - she has a fondness for tennis and judo. She is also somewhat talented in getting favors out of people, typically to make another person happy or to avoid doing a task she deems impossible. Sure, she's not book-smart and can be easily confused, nor does she normally keep up with the news on her own, but she does have a fair bit of common sense. She's a good listener, even if she's not very good at advice or at keeping a secret. Above all, she wants people around her to be as happy as she typically is, and gets genuinely upset if she ends up running herself ragged for nothing. Haruko tries to live life without regrets, though she hasn't entirely succeeded.
Villain Appearance: When night falls...
Villain name: Plague
Powers: Transforming into Plague gives her a few benefits - she will not keep any of her wounds gained while transformed, she feels fully rested afterwards, and is not bound by her health. Plague itself has its own powers - it can spread sickness through inflicting a wound, fly, turn intangible, and fire arrow-like feathers from its wings. However, to sustain its powers in full, Plague must consume human flesh, healthy or diseased, and must shun bright light.
Transforming item: At will, to a degree - if she is feeling ill or generally unwell, Plague can easily slip out. If she is feeling well, Plague is nowhere to be found. In addition, it must be at night.
History: Haruko is the child of divorce - both she and her sister were split at age 8, though not before there was a physical altercation. For over a year, Haruko seemed reluctant to believe that the divorce was final, frequently asking her mother when her father was coming home, even when she began dating other men. It took Haruko a few years to accept that her father wasn't coming back, and a few more months to warm up to her mother's current partner. When he offered to teach her judo, that got her on his side.
Beyond the unfortunate split, though, Haruko lived a fairly charmed life. She tended to attract people to her naturally and, even as a child, made many friends. Her parties were enormous affairs, usually held out of the house. Some people kept in touch as schools and clubs changed, some moved on without her, and a few who were significantly older were pulled away from her by work and family moving. None of this dissuaded her at all, as she knew there were always more people to meet. Besides, as far as she was decided, it didn't make a person any less of a friend just because they weren't known for long.
After one of her parties, over the summer break, she was cleaning up when she found a peculiar ring with a skull on it. As she was the only one left, she decided to hold onto it until she could find its owner. If she didn't, well, it was oddly alluring in its own morbid way, and no one would mind if she kept it, right?
Other: Haruko doesn't speak much of the divorce. She knows where her father moved to but is reluctant to have a reunion.
Plague seems to have a personality separate from its host - it puts its own health and survival above everything else, thus why it has no hesitation feeding on people. While it can make do with, say, a limb, it likes eating as much as possible and seems to be genuinely concerned about starving. Plague is highly aggressive - if it moves and is human-shaped, it's probably a meal, and if it pulls Plague off a meal, it must be destroyed. It's also not terribly smart, though it is capable of basic hunting strategies. Pretty much, it's a big ferocious animal barely kept on any sort of leash and if it wasn't for the fact it has some speech - mostly learned from its victims, resulting in generally nonsensical phrases and horrific screams - it'd probably be considered nonsapient.

Oh, and I'd also like to know where you're putting your characters in Hongo academy. Like, are they in clubs, or something. Pretty much their social standing when they aren't a hero.
I also edited the first post and added all the character sheets that have been accepted

Well, Haruko'll probably be in the tennis club, and Dimi - well, I guess if clubs are optional, he'll usually go straight home but if not, then I guess perhaps a track club?
And, oh, year standing should be added? Pretty sure Diarmi would be first-year and Haruko second-year.

Want us to just say our character's standing with the people and the school or just add it into the cs? Or both?
Anyhow i was assuming that the Bright Executioner was well received by the public but if you need more unpopular heroes i certainly don't have any problems with him bein disliked or just not as popular as the better heroes. As for position? Maybe representative for the 4th years and/or a member of some group of students that works to stop bullying and keep people from bein little shits.

Three things. First, I cleaned up my signup post, and made a slight modification by adding in a sword for Sakura. Secondly, as far as the public perception of Crimson Flame goes, she hasn't had a chance to do anything really significant, so most people are reserving judgement on her. Third, I can't come up with an antagonist right now, so if anyone has any ideas, I'm all ears.

Third year, has no club because she's flagrantly a delinquent, even if Kasumi is implausibly still a good student.

Second year (should be third but former delinquent)
Clubs none, but does volunteer work in the community.

Morrigan's third year, but her grades are tanking, she barely interacts with anyone, and she regularly just doesn't show up at school anymore. Before becoming the Crusader she was involved in athletics and was popular enough for a rough and tumble foreign girl with no grasp or patience for Japanese social graces, but the responsibility of being a superhero has pretty thoroughly devoured her life.
I envision Crusader being a fairly well known hero - she tends to draw attention with the golden armor, flaming sword, and water spirit steed.

Ikaku is third year (I think xD). Intelligence is shown in subjects that he has control over, namely things such as English, Science and Art. He hates cold hard facts of histories and maths. In an art club I assume and often hangs around a local coffee shop that hosts poetry slams.

Hibiki doesn't try that hard, but as I said in my CS his grades usually stay around 3rd or 2nd best of the class. Personality wise...he would be more or less like Tsukasa Kadoya from Kamen Rider Decade so...he wouldn't be the kind of person people would like at first, however he has his share of friends. About clubs...I think he would be in the drama club. He's a third year as well.

*coughs* Is it going to be a problem since I have never seen Kamen Rider? I understand the premise but if things are going to be in reference from the show I am going to be more lost than a quantum physicist in a sociology conference!
