[OOC] State of Heroes and Villains

[MarshiestMallow]

Do you think we should ask one of the mods about it?

[twave]

Perhaps. For at least nothing else but what to do about the thread since we can't change stuff now.

[MarshiestMallow]

Okay, I can do that. Looking at Knights posts, I don't think there's anything that warrants a ban

[twave]

I just asked the mods. We'll see I suppose. Or maybe not. But at least they can answer about the RP.

[MarshiestMallow]

Okay!

If worse comes to worse, we can just use the first post in the CS tab.

So yours.

[twave]

At least a grabbed one of them, again.

[MarshiestMallow]

Yeah that's right

[MarshiestMallow]

Hmmm

I wanna post and interact with Katherin with Phoebe but need a post from Avan

And I don't know what to do with Kalinda. I had her go after Crow but @asuu doesn't seem to be posting here. I've emailed too, to discussing some things...nada

[Avanhelsing]

Oh just post! I'm saying Ryan already left.

Also I just noticed the ban. What did he do to warrant it? He could have broken some rule...

[MarshiestMallow]

I'm happy waiting. I was more informing Katherin. It's not meant to be pushy. Sorry if it did! Sorry sorry sorry! bows head

[Avanhelsing]

No I mean it. I have a few rps to catch up on. You should just post.

[MarshiestMallow]

It's okay, I've got a few to catch up on myself, and I've gotten into the habit of informing people about what I want to do.

I guess I just started doing it in all my roleplays

[KatherinWinter]

@Caits@Avanhelsing
No hurry here. I'm still trying to figure things out

[Klyix]

Yeah, that's really weird about him being banned, hopefully it's all a big misunderstanding that will be easily fixed

[MarshiestMallow]

But I find it weird there hasn't been a random account made and post saying something like "I am here"

Or maybe that's just what i would do.

I'm having trouble keeping my eyes open

Maybe I'll iust go to bed. Only got like two more roleplays to write in...

pokes all

How is everyone?

[twave]

Okay, well the ban looks to have been a personal request. I suppose he's done here.

[Avanhelsing]

He could have told us before hand. Sort of sudden. Ahh well so we just move on without him then. Sort of odd.

[twave]

Yeah. Was not expecting that. Alright then I need to work out who of the teachers we find. We have a few that want to wrap things up. We also have characters that need approving.

[MarshiestMallow]

Well that looks to be dizzy' and Klyxx job then.

rubs eyes

A bit weird. Maybe he was having problems with someone. Guess we will never know. Well, we managed before. We can manage again.

I'm heading off to bed now.

[Hidden Lilly]

Bio

Childhood
Makoto’s father was Japanese and her mother was Caucasian/Canadian. They lived happily together in a small home. At the age of 10 her father was diagnosed with cancer. He battled and they tried to get him the best treatment they could. In the end the doctors had caught it too late and he died when Makoto was 12. Makoto’s mother did her best to cope and continue to raise Makoto the best she could.

The loss of her father took quite a toll on her mother. She began to drink in secret. As time went on and the effectiveness of alcohol wore off, Makoto’s mom began to drink more frequently and in greater amounts. Often her mom would go to a local bar and not be home until practically the next morning just in time to go to work. One morning, Makoto awoke to the doorbell ringing. She opened it and to her surprise there was a police officer there. He explained to her that earlier in the evening her mother had gotten into a car crash while still intoxicated and died. In a way Makoto was glad that when her mom crashed, she hadn’t hit another car and killed others, but she was still pained by her mother’s passing. Makoto was 14.

Power Manifestation/High School
There were not many people left around her since her mother had pushed most of their family friends away and didn’t make it easy to build relationships with people at school (not allowed to go out or have people over). Makoto managed alright after that, being in a suspended state of shock. Her world came crashing down one day when it came to the attention of her high school teachers that she was underage and without parents. Child services was notified and Makoto did not take the action lightly. It made everything real, she couldn’t just pretend that her mother was still out at a bar somewhere. It was in this moment that 15 year old Makoto manifested her powers, scaring the social worker and company away.

She tried to pack up and leave, maybe find somewhere else to go so that they couldn’t find her again. Maybe enroll in a night school or something to continue her education. As she bundled up and left, it was spring, she couldn’t help but notice that as she walked by people their hair would begin to stand on end. If she loitered people would begin discussing that it’s a phenomenon that happens right before a lightning strike, yet no storms were forecasted. It was all too close to the truth for Makoto and she kept moving until she came across a quiet area she could sit and think without hurting anyone. She closed her eyes, trying to calm herself down.

“Hello young lady.” Makoto looked up. There was a very attractive woman standing in front of her, talking to her. “You seem upset, are you alright?”
“I’m fine.” This woman made her uncomfortable. Something was wrong…
“Are you sure? Why don’t you let me buy you a hot chocolate?” The woman persisted.
“No thanks, I’m alright.” Makoto began to squirm and try to scoot away.
“No, you need to come with me.” The woman reached out to grab Makoto’s wrist, succeeding.
“No! Let go!” Makoto yelled, releasing an amplified amount of the static electricity she created into the area and the women. The lady cried out in pain, her skin flipping like scales to reveal many identities and settling on a blue face. Makoto was stunned, as much about the woman as she was about herself. She tried to get up and run but by the time she was able to recover herself, the woman was moving again. The people around had begun to shriek and cry out for help. Not long after other people, mutants clashed in a fray. Makoto seemed to be in the middle of it. Finally she seemed to land under the care of a team of mutants in black and yellow uniforms.

“What’s going on?” Makoto asked, trying to put pieces together. “Where are you taking me?”
“To a safer place than this where you can learn to control your powers.” A woman with silver hair said to her. Soon and with little argument from Makoto, they were off. It wasn't long before they arrived at their destination, Xavier’s School for Gifted Students.

Xavier's School for Gifted Students
Makoto spent 2 years there, mostly studying school work and avoiding her powers at all costs. She continually displayed a scared and meek demeanor as she continued to run from the truth of her life.

One day, Storm (the last headmaster of Xavier’s School) approached Makoto before a school wide assembly. She explained to Makoto that something new was going to be coming about, a new and better school for gifted people. Reluctant, Makoto was on board with the plan and she was glad that her guardian, for lack of a better term, warned her before the assembly. Soon, Makoto and the rest of Xavier’s school was brought to The Academy for Heroes and Villains.

The Academy of Heroes and Villains
At The Academy, Makoto kept her quiet disposition but began to display it as a gentle strength as opposed to a tender weakness. Her intelligence became much more apparent as she began to finally work through the situations in her life, giving her confidence. She made many friends at The Academy. Her closest friends would have been Phoebe and Katherin. Makoto feels great amounts of affection for the two girls that helped her so much with giving her the strength to face her past and her present. Makoto gained her High School Diploma from The Academy as well as becoming proficient in Baguazhang and Iron Palm. She learned how to control her powers and that she had the gift of cytokineses as well. She also learned how to mask her powers so that the public would not know she was different. Having graduated she has completely taken on the name Gale as her super identity and Makoto is her secret identity.

University
At the age of 19 Makoto began her university career at a local institute for a bachelors in health science.
