High School Rumble!


A new year dawns on Kagetora high school, and with it comes a new Student Council. The previous student council held the record for amount of time in power, which in the end was only one full year; but Kagetora that in itself was a feat. The thrones of the Student Council are the most coveted asset in the entire school after all, and over the years clubs would even forge alliances with others in order to take on the student council.

With the previous student council having defended their title for a whole year until they graduated, the current student council already has enemies amongst the new Third and Second years. Those who were afraid of the previous generation's power. The largest obstacle between them and a council seat has been removed, and the current Student Council is mainly made up of those chosen by the previous student council, casting doubt on their strength.

The alliances grow bolder as the days go by, and the council doesn't seem to be able to do much about it. But this is hardly something new in Kagetora, this is something that has happened countless times before. If the council is not strong enough, then they aren't fit to stand above everyone else. If you want to rule, you're always going to have to be strong.


Score

Winning a fight or doing well on a test will earn you a certain amount of Score. This Score will determine your school ranking which basically serves as an indication for who's the best in the school. Score divided into two things which are 'Points' and 'Ranks'. As you gain Points you will gain the same amount of Ranks, but the difference is that Points can be used to purchase things and Ranks will stay constant.



Each student who starts their first year begins with 1000 Points and the same amount of Rank. Every 1% on any given assessment will give 10 Score for an average subject. For exams it's a little different, if you score over 90% you'll get 100 Score per 1%, 50-90% will get you 50 Score per 1% and anything below that will just be normal.

Regular fight points are split into the three dorm tiers. C-tier will give 100 points for a win, B-tier will give 500 points and A-tier will give 1000 points for any average win, while the loser will lose that amount depending on their tier.


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 can occur anywhere, but if Rank is at stake then fights must take place in a designated fighting area
  • 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
  • Breaking these rules can result in a Point deduction or even a Rank deduction

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.


Structures

The school itself is divided into two places. First is the main school complex, and behind it are the dorms. The dorms are split into four 'tiers' with the first three being available to all of the students, and the last one is exclusively used by members of the student council.






The school complex also has its own host of unusual structures. In the center of the school is an auditorium with a large pit fighting arena at the bottom, the school courtyard has spectator seats ringed around the outside, and most of the classrooms can be re-purposed as arenas in case some students are having a disagreement without disturbing the class.

Besides those there are the standard structures such as the library, sick bay and staff room; there are also many spare classrooms in case some get destroyed during the day.


Character sheets





Factions

A faction is basically an alliance of clubs usually based on mutual benefit. Sometimes though, Factions can basically be just like extended clubs. They are obligated to have a display during festivals and during certain events, they are basically their own team. There are many factions within Kagetora but the most noteworthy factions are the alliances made between the biggest combat oriented clubs in the school.

Name:Kagenuma Yuzuki

Appearance:


Gender:Furmail

Age:16

Year Level:1st year

Faction/club:None atm.

Power: 5 Palm Buddha Mountain Eruption, a martial arts passed down the Kagenuma clan, emphasizing power and technique, and above all, channeling fire through their inner ki. As a side effect of the harsh training, she gained prodigious strength and endurance, and particularly resistance towards heat. Training includes fighting with a myriad of weapons, but because of her own strength and the requisite fire the martial art produces, most weapon besides those made by her own clan usually break after a few swings, unable to withstand the effect of her power on it.

Bio:She was raised in a faraway village way up in the mountains, where her clan still owns a large amount of land and a few dojo teaching the basics of their martial arts to students. From time to time they would get the occasional challenger who journeyed there, whereupon she would sneak into the dojo to watch her father fight. Her father always looked resplendent as he fought, his techniques flawless, his strikes precise and powerful. That was not to say the challengers were mostly weak either. Many of them were strong in their own way, some were fleet and deceptive, some had this seemingly flawless ability to predict her father's moves, and some were straight up as powerful and durable like her father.

One day, during the customary dinner with a challenger after a fight, the challenger casually mentioned of a school where a lot of strong young people gathered. It was extremely obvious afterwards her father took an interest to that, for the very next day, she had a few new clothes and several bags, even though she couldn't go there yet for a few months. Her training grew steadily more intense during those last months, before finally being sent to school. As much as she disliked the rather intense training her father put her through, she understood his desire and enthusiasm.

To showcase the might of their martial arts to the world.

Elize is a tall willowy girl, standing about five foot eight. She works out regularly and thus is cut like a professional athlete.
Elize Vanzant

Gender: Female
Age: 17
Year Level: 3
Faction/club: Imperial Regimate/ Archery Club

Power: Elize's power consists of the ability to manipulate the air around her. If it rains she does not get rained on, if you make her mad expect to be punished severely for it. Elize can control any gaseous substance because of this she can literally rip the air out of your lungs or from anywhere else she would like. She can also produce a sort of hyperbaric chamber and depending on what she puts in it it can either help or hurt, a lot. Her powers still have a lot of time to grow and she works on her endurance of using them daily. Moving a lot of air requires a lot of energy and concentration. The longer Elize is forced to hold air or continuously move it the harder it becomes to do so. Long stents of continuously moving air, which is required for stunts like keeping air away or pushing it towards something because of the nature of gases which everyone should know from science class, can result in serious consequences. These consequences can be anything from a serious nose bleed to unconsciousness. Any amount of work with the powers over about 20 to 30 minutes will without a doubt result in a serious nose bleed and have drained quite a bit of energy. Once Elize reaches about the 45 minute mark she generally has a headache and the longer she pushes past that mark the worse it and her nose bleed will get. This is one of the reasons she works hard to increase her endurance.

Bio: Born to Iris and Slade Vanzant, Elize grew up with parents who had powers. Iris and Slade met at the academy and married shortly after graduating, Elize was born just two years later. Elize's father is an illusionist and her mother is a water manipulator. Elize's family is very well off, and she was sent to a private school for regular children before she moved to this academy when she was old enough. When she was younger her parents hired private tutors to help her in school and to learn to control her powers. Even as a young girl Elize showed a tremendous penchant for working hard to earn what she got. When she was around 6 her parents bought her her very first bow, a small 15 pound recurve that she still owns. It was from that day on that she practiced with her bow alongside practicing with her powers. When she was 10 Elize acquired her first horse, a Sugarbush Draft named Hexa's Sugarbush Princess or Princess for short. This quickly became Elize's third and favorite hobby. She quickly got the mare to accept Elize shooting her bow from her back and by 12 she was competing in competitions regularly for mounted archery. Horseback riding and archer are Elize's true loves. Elize has developed a rather fierce reputation because her powers allow direct damage without physically touching anyone.

I like how the very first character can already destroy anyone without highly superhuman resistance in a single attack at touch or range, can make things explode, has extremely effective defenses, heightened speed, toughness and pain tolerance to cover what those defenses don't and weaknesses that don't really apply because his abilities naturally counter them. Really sets the tone here, as seen by the character than can just literally rip the air out from your lungs at a whim.

I'm not quite sure why you find it necessary to be so sarcastic, especially in that manner. What did you expect when the roleplay is based entirely on fighting?

Lol chill mate. I have no idea on why people find it so necessary to be sarcastic and passive aggressive.

I'll change some stuff up. This is a character I've already had for a super-power RP, and I decided to throw it back into an RP because I didn't have much time to play as him. Drink some gatorade and chill out.

Oh I don't know, fighting instead of characters who trade instakill abilities while also having amazing defensive abilities such as no physical means of damage can ever work on them, because they're instantly completely nullified. But don't mind me, just expressing my opinion, it's up to the GM really.

No, your opinion was legit and useful, but there's really not a reason to be a sarcastic dick about it. We're human, not the characters we RP as.

Anyways, it's edited. I'll see what the GM says about it now.

Edit: Actually, GM, hope you have a fun RP bro. I sort of have a bad taste in my mouth now, so I'm gonna head out, but this is a pretty fun idea, and I hope you can have fun with it. Peace!

Name: Olle Mattis
Appearance:

Her body type is lanky. She's not some sort of fitness junkie, however she's a bit muscular from hunting. When able to she wears her favorite Gamo hoodie that has camo running down one sleeve (encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/images?q=tb..) (If you ask her, one of her 'weakling' relatives bought it thinking of the airgun company), with a grey shirt underneath, and either slightly baggy blue jeans or cargo pants. Wearing the respirator with goggles is more of a need for her. She absolutely refuses to go without it. Most people think it's because she's a prepper and waiting for chemical warfare. For whatever reason, Olle sees it as sort of an insult if you ask why she wears it.

Gender: Female
Age: 17
Year Level: 2nd Year
Faction/club: Imperial Regiment / Ballistics Club
Power: (I'm not going to make this OP at all.) The Power of 'Truth'. No, it isn't the one you've seen in books where the protagonist is able to make people speak the truth. Instead of that it's rather simple: The ability to sense ammo and catch it in midair. It doesn't work one hundred percent of the time, and the side effects aren't generous if performed regularly. Most of the time doing it requires her to go through both physical and mental pain. Knowing this she tries not to use it often.
Bio:

Weapons: Olle carries a Becker bk7 with her normally, along with a small pocket sized Victorinox Swiss Army SD knife. For a handgun she conceals a Glock 34 Gen 3 9mm on her basically everywhere she goes, locked and loaded with ammo. Her last weapon is a Browning A-Bolt 3 Composite Stalker rifle plus a sling. She doesn't carry it often around campus due to it's size, however she can be seen around with it sometimes.
Score: R / 32,468 P / 31,093

Honestly? Because fighting school can be fun, it's a simple as crap shonen setting and one I like. But when you turn it into powerwank central where characters need the ability to effortlessly instakill anyone that doesn't have some means of heightened defense to survive, let alone remain competitive, then it stops being as fun, because everyone tends to go for ridiculous powers in an effort to not be shown up by others. Then rather than a fun game about fighting and shenanigans it turns into everyone having a nuke button.

It's "fine" when it happens in bad shonen because there's a single writer controlling the narrative and he doesn't need things to remain balanced and reasonable. In a roleplay it just turns into a stupid arms race where people strive to be as overpowered as the GM will allow to counter or at least balance out with the other characters. But hey, don't mind me, it's up to the GM to judge and people should just follow whatever powerlevel's allowed.

Name: Trinh Quan Vuong

Appearance: A 5'8", scrawny dark skinned foreigner. Trinh, as he prefers to be referred as, has long, unkempt greasy hair to go with his pimpled, greasy face. His appearance is generally sloppy, though clean enough that he can be generally comfortable. He typically wears a white, long sleeved button-up with the sleeves rolled to his elbow; with a pair of blue slacks and running shoes. He is most notable for the single long eyebrow sticking out of the left side of his face. Trinh refuses to shave it off.

Gender: Male

Age: 14

Year Level: 1st

Faction/club: DJ Club

Power: Some could say Trinh's power is his super analytical nature which seems to pay a good deal of attention to detail. He has study habits which appear obsessive, which focus more on beating in and retaining information. In addition, Trinh is very good at recognizing patterns. These skills, however, were honed more by the draconian educational system of Vietnam more than a super power. To counter this, Trinh carries on his person; at all times; an AK103 with selective fire (three-round burst and safe), mounted with close combat optics, fixed bayonet, and five 30 round magazines worth of 7.62x39mm with 3 magazines of lead cased ammo and 2 magazines of brass cased ammo. He also has on him three CAT tourniquets, 2 packs of occlusive chest dressing, a bottle of Motrin, and a bottle of 91% isopropyl alcohol. His rifle is often slung on his back. Trinh carries a magazine of beass 7.62 in his left pocket at all times. The rest of his equipment along with his other school supplies goes inside a brown leather messenger bag that Trinh is usually not seen without on campus.

Bio: Trinh is a foreign student from Vietnam who moved countries when as his parents were fighting. Trinh moved soon into his aunt's house, his aunt paying for his plane ticket. When choosing schools, Trinh did not mind which one he went to. He was too unfamiliar with the new school system to really care. Eventually, he chose a school that provided housing so that he didn't have to live off of his aunt the entire time he stayed in the country. Unbeknownst to Trinh, it was a school for the super human.

A new student, he had little friends. He didn't particularly care. All Trinh really wanted to do was play video games on his laptop. He uses the DJ club as a nap room and a relatively quiet place to play video games in. Though he doesn't have any actual official affiliation with the DJ club proper, Trinh will protect his napping spot with life and limb.

Trinh typically does not make friends. With a language barrier barring him from interaction, his knowledge of the English language quite limited, Trinh only rarely raises his hand. His accent keeps him from speaking really to anyone unless he really needs to. However, long periods of using the Internet in English had given Trinh a grasp on written English and all the formalities of the language's syntax and grammar. If only he could solve his horrible accent.

Name: Kurosawa Misaki (Kurosawa Miki or just 'Mickey')


Gender: Female
Age: 17
Year Level: 2
Faction/club: Captain of Boxing Club (Though really, Misaki would prefer to cheer on the accomplishments of her Club Peers)

Power: Malleability of the Body - Kurosawa Misaki has the ability to warp her body, being able of performing such feats such as being able to transform herself to look like others or creating additional limbs.

Bio: Kurosawa Misaki was born in Toyko. Growing up, Misaki learned that she had the gift of warping her own body. This did not provide incentive for her to go out and be social, as she was afraid of what she truly was and where she belonged. Although it did allow her to become one Hell of a Prankster. But back to the main point, this ability helped socially impair her, which worried her parents. Her mother and father talked, and decided to push her into an activity of her choice. Much to the surprise of her parents, she seemed interested in the idea of cheerleading. While hesitant, and feeling that she should instead just stick to playing card games and the like, her parents were enthusiastic in pushing her towards an activity where she'd have to be vibrant, whether she wanted to or not. She did enjoy the activity and made friends doing it, all the while doing it she became more social. However, her life would change when she was sent to Kagetora Academy. Now she hopes she can survive the turmoil within, and hopefully keep a relatively peaceful life as she goes through the school system...

Of course that is not be as easy as it seems. Especially since, as Mickey managed to become the Captain while all the other seniors were moving off to participate in real league circuits, while others were transferred to other schools. It just so happened that they managed to win the battle to claim the title of Captain of the Club. As such, to honor and preserve the honor of the club, relative peace may not be an option.

Name: Akira "Sting" Banchou
Appearance:
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Year Level: Senior
Faction/club: DJ Club, Botany Club
Power: Akira's power isn't overt. After three years at the academy, Akira's body and clothing are infested with parasitic organisms. While this drastically increases his food intake, it also grants him a wide range of benefits. Bees nest in his hair, giving it a lustrous sheen from the honey and meticulous care of a beehive. The worms in his stomach make the acid incredibly potent, allowing him to spray it from his mouth. The strange beetles living under his jacket make hitting him akin to punching a stone wall, though force still sends him reeling. "One With The Power of Nature."
Rank: 1,000,000
Bio: Akira comes from a loving family... who ALSO happen to be infested by parasitic bugs. His mother's colony of ants works constantly, and his father's beetle coating makes him nearly bulletproof. In fact, power over insects runs in the family on both sides. Although his last name refers to the position in the Japanese imperial guard his family once held, Akira just so happens to be a banchou, the leader of a school's delinquents. Mostly, this consists of fighting other delinquents in a show of physical dominance, then palling around with them later. The gang's secondary priorities include protecting the weak from bullies and helping old people. As soon as he heard of a school for those with powers, however, he recognized his best chance of becoming King of the Bancho! All it would take is bringing the delinquents here down a peg.
