Name:
El Ruidoso de Marad

Appearance:
El Ruidoso is a strong boy! He is not overly tall, only being five foot six, but he is ninety kilograms of pure bronzed muscle! He has no need for such petty things as shirts, instead baring his amazingly muscled chest, glorious abs and delectable biceps for all to see! But, he is never properly dressed unless he is wearing his silver lucha mask and spandex wrestling pants! His face is always hidden behind his mask, his dark eyes glittering with mischief!

Gender
El Ruidoso is an outstanding specimen of a male human!

Age:
El Ruidoso has reached manhood! He is eighteen years old!

Year Level:
El Ruidoso is not much longer for this school, being in grade three!

Faction:
El Ruidoso is a proud (and only) member of the ¡LUCHA CLUB!

Power:
El Ruidoso believes that magical powers are for little men who cannot fight with honour! Instead, he uses ¡LUCHA LIBRE! Truly a noble form of fighting! Similar to Greco-Roman wrestling, Lucha Libre focuses on grapples and throws, but Lucha Libre is significantly more flashy and dramatic. There is less emphasis on power compared to the American style and more on rapid holds and grapples, with particular focus on extreme high-flying moves that require amazing athletic and acrobatic ability. It is believed that El Ruidoso's FIERY PASSION allows him to fight harder, faster, and power through attacks no mortal man could withstand! All El Ruidoso needs to do to control a fight is get a grab on you, and once he has you in his grip, you will not escape.

Bio:
El Ruidoso de Marad is a loud, boisterous man, defined by his FIERY PASSION! He is very personable and always keen to make friends! His emotions and thoughts are always on display, as the idea of deceit repulses him! He is a kind man, always wanting to help everyone equally and bringing the attention of those in need to all around him! He is also a very cheeky man, often flirting with attractive ladies around the school for El Ruidoso appreciates the beauty of the female form!

As an orphan growing up in the dirt poor parts of Mexico, El Ruidoso came to understand the true value of family and friends. The Marad Orphanage was his home for many years, and he worked long and hard helping out the staff and his fellow orphans with their day to day chores. One of the staff members was an old luchador, who instructed El Ruidoso in the ways of lucha. When he was accepted to the school, his master gave him his old mask, to continue the name of El Ruidoso and bring pride to the Marad Orphanage and Mexico as a whole.

Score:
121,000

Dorm:
El Ruidoso needs no dorm! He sleeps on a bedroll on the floor, as permitting his simple existence!

[Descartes]

So how many people before we can begin?

[RoflsMazoy]

@Boomrocker He looks good, accepted!

@Descartes I'm just waiting on everyone who's posted a sheet here to put it in the character tab, and I also have to finish my sheets as well

[RoflsMazoy]

For anyone interested, I lowered the requirement for A-tier from 100,000 to 75,000 because 100,000 is actually pretty ridiculous. A normal student wouldn't even be able to get that much by the time they graduated assuming they averaged 60% or so and they didn't fight any more than a normal person would.

EDIT: Actually, 100,000 is fine I just realized. I am stupid.

[Clev]

Since I'm pretty sure no one has claimed Captain of the Ballistics club, I'd like to claim it for Olle if that's okay.

@Clev

Yeah, it doesn't look like anyone else is going to turn up for now. I'll make the changes.

[GreenGoat]

Hmm.. How does the school handle death though?

[RoflsMazoy]

@Ostarion and @VarionusNW
If you guys don't give any indication of your presence before I finish all my character sheets, we're going to have to start without you two and I'll have to make some more student council characters. To put that in perspective, I've done about 2 out of 4 in about four hours, and I'll be going to sleep in about 1 and a half hours.

@Aspen Wren and @clanjos
Same for you two as well, we need to start soon so if you don't declare your presence, we'll move on.

I'll try to get a character sheet done by the end of the day.

@Ostarion

I don't mean to pressure you, I just needed to move it along a little bit.

[RoflsMazoy]

Alright, it is officially past my bedtime. I'll take a look at those sheets in the morning and hopefully start getting the first post up! :D

[Ploxerdon]

Also a few things:
I might be a bit rusty, didn't rp in a while
My character simply won't get hit in the beginning, its part of his power etc.
My character is not in any faction, but that doesn't mean he is non-recruitable, he is just the loner type :P
Looking forwards to this anyway, will be fun :)

@RoflsMazoy
Sorry I was at work running a racetrack last night and thus unable to post anything of real significance. My phone does not like to copy and paste.

[NarcissisticPotato]

Interesting! This kinda has a Baka and Test feel to it! Anyways, you mind if I hop into this, Rofls?

[Descartes]

Or Oran Highschool. Or Tiger and Bunny. Or really any other superpower school setting.

[GreenGoat]

Only one i know of that has some point thingies are Baka to Test lol.

[Embalmer]

For super schools, uh there are probably others. The use of points here kinda strikes me as a Deadman Wonderland vibe.

[IncredibleBee]

I would also like to join.

Name: Alphonse "Al" Valkanos

Appearance: Al's a bit taller than average, with decent muscle tone, but his long limbs make him look leaner. His hair is a ragged, unkempt mop of muddy brown, and his facial features are surprisingly soft. Albeit, he's usually got a bruise or bandage marring them.
His dress style is pretty casual; he mostly wears loose fitting denim pants and untied boots, with a tee shirt and dingy leather coat up top. On his back he typically keeps three or four large greatswords, of ordinary make, kept in a sling.
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Year Level: 1st (he was held back two years)

Faction/club: Boxing Club Neophyte

Power: Superman- Al is strong - much stronger than his frame would even suggest; he can crumple metal with his fists, throw heavy objects, and lift big things, like a small car or chunks of the classroom's floor. He's durable to boot- It's pretty common for other students to take a sledgehammer to his face, because anything less probably won't phase him.
Naturally, his self-taught fighting style takes advantage of this, and focuses on Al throwing his momentum around to deliver maximum impact haymakers. Drop kicks are common, as are wild punches, suplexes, and throwing whatever's handy, up to and including the enemy. Additionally, Al carries around several greatswords, since he finds their length and mass are good for slinging around. Also he thinks they're cool.

Perhaps the biggest downside is that his muscle mass isn't proportional to his strength. A fighter with the same strength levels but more muscle mass, for example, has an easier time throwing Al than the other way around, and naturally has an easier time putting more force behind blows.

Bio: Al is by all means a kind, well-meaning person, with an understanding of the importance of friendship. He just happens to have a wild streak, and that streak just happens to be rather good at hitting stuff really hard. Upon entering the school, his physical abilities had administrators expecting him to be a B or even A ranked student. They quickly discovered, however, how terrible Al was for the school. Almost every time he agreed to fight, Al promptly forgot about the match or was distracted by something else, and upon not showing at the battle arena, lost by forfeiture, damaging his score. His poor grades did not help the matter.

Recently, Al's found refuge in the boxing club, hoping they can help him get to and win matches so he can actually graduate from the school eventually. His usage of swords is still the topic of hot debate, mainly between him and literally every other club member.
