Boku no Hero: Hands-On Experience

@Tominas

I might give it a shot if I come up with a creative quirk.

I honestly considered making a tsundere out of Todoroki at first. I realized that it was a crappy idea ten seconds later.

Nathan's workmate. For the first time, I finally got the code for the video to work.

Michael Solis

"The Brazen-Faced Timekeeper"

Indians are beautiful. Extra points if you can identify the actor.

---

Age: 45

Rank: Knight
(NOTE: Michael has actually worked for the Tower longer than Nathan has. He's just lazy.)

Race: Human

Appearance:
Michael usually wears his jacket, along with matching sunglasses. He also wears scarves. He likes scarves. It is rumored that he actually has a fetish towards them.

He is incredibly sexy, and he has a breath-taking six-pack.

Oh god was that even necessary

Personality
Michael is cool. Very cool.

He has an unhealthy habit of performing "rad motorcycle trickz", such as riding his motorbike right into bars just for the sake of hooking up the pretty ladies. He likes to slack a lot, and he considers riding his motorbike around town as "patrolling". He never gets serious, and he will maintain his brazen smile even in the middle of the battlefield. People often pass him off as a dickhead.

Well, he actually does get serious sometimes. However, that doesn't change the fact that he does things recklessly.

ooh hot

Will Level: Greater

THE STORY SO FAR...

Michael was raised in the Nexus, one of Faros' churches. He grew up in isolation, and he would usually play by himself with his father's broadsword. He learned to use the sword at an early age, as his father decided to train him so that he could stop hacking into the oak tree situated near the door of their house.

Soon enough, Michael would enter the city. He would get into street fights often, and then emerge victorious simply by using a plunger/spatula/crowbar/whatever as a sword. His talent caught the attention of many, and his parents decided to school him in swordsmanship.

Eventually, Michael emerged as a fully-fledged Knight. He still visits the Nexus on weekends. Nothing much more.

Magic

• Time Bending: Michael, as a follower of Faros, can control the very flow of time. He can either slow down or quicken time, although he almost never does the latter. He can do this with ease, as he has a Greater will level. This is the only magic he uses, though.

Tech

• Twin Dragons
  When you can't choose between a sword and a gun, you go with both!
  These twin gunblades were forged exclusively for Michael by the town blacksmith. They run on plasma rounds.
  
• Graphene Jacket
  Very cool jacket.
  
  "Where did he even get this?"

  One day, a small contingent of soldiers under the Order of Blades got into a fight with a battalion of Stygian Blade swordsmen. Then battle was intense, and only a few soldiers remained. In the end, the Stygian Blade retreated.
  
  Michael got this jacket from one of the fallen soldiers.
  
  The jacket itself is fortified with graphene, making it elastic yet very protective and durable. Michael wears protective plates on his pants to match it.
  
  • The compartment located on the part wherein the chest would fit is embedded with runes. This part is wired to Michael's armband, which sports a button. When the button is pressed, Michael can project his internal energy into it. This materialized a shock-absorbing Void Shield, which can be used to deliberately block attacks. Nathan, Michael's friend workmate crafted it for him as a prototype.
  
  
• Motorbike
  
  vroom vroom

Skills

• Swordsmanship Skillz: Michael is very skilled in the art of swordsmanship. He has been fascinated with the way of the blade since his childhood.
• Marksmanship Skillz: Michael's accuracy is not exemplary, but it fits a standard soldier.
• Kung Fu Skillz
  
  nuff' said
• Michael, having fought in the streets, understands how to play dirty. He can improvise many things as weapons.
• Very Seductive Body This is going overboard

God Relations

• Faros: Michael has been bonded to him since childhood, due to being raised by his clerics. Nobody can tell if Faros himself is disappointed in him, but it is very likely. Nonetheless, Michael is his servant, for he is tasked to prevents people from delving too deeply into the future.

Theme Song

GAME: Crush A Wish

Granted. Every solid object now has this print etched onto it:



Aside from that, everybody now wears oversized sunglasses and ridiculous gold necklaces. They all speak in ghetto, and you are forced to play along regretfully. The president decides to undergo surgery, and he now looks like this:



You still don't have to maintain a working air conditioner or electric fan, though.

I wish that I could make a perfect wish.

YOWL: a worldbuild collaboration

YOWL: a worldbuild collaboration

---

In an unidentified corner of the massive world lies a city dominantly known as Loris City. In the city, all activity is quiet and uninterrupted. Creativity is a rare concept, as not a trace of it is to be found in the city.

Creativity, you say?

In the city of Loris, creativity does not even exist. The unexpecting citizens do not believe there to be more to their daily lives, as they perform their daily tasks robotically. Art, music, and sports are unheard of, as if they are meaningless words from a foreign language from a land never to be heard of. The very concept of these artistic pursuits does not make sense to the Lorisian citizen. During the very founding days of Loris City, citizens were conditioned into thinking that there would be nothing beyond the city itself. Soon, as Loris' population rose, the Ruse produced by such a way of thinking became more and more powerful. Soon enough, the Lorisian citizen would not be able to grasp the very concept of such outlandish concepts, should a wayward traveler attempt to introduce them. Curiosity is considered as the deadliest of vices to ever be possessed by a Lorisian Citizen.

Unfortunately, no such traveler would be able to enter. Loris City is protected by its ever expanding boundaries. At the edge of the boundary sits the Gatekeepers. These individuals possess immense power. It was said that one of them could wipe out the entire Lorisian civilization. The Gatekeepers guarded the boundaries with ease, and it was not in the mindset of the Lorisian citizen to trespass the boundaries. In fact, none of them even thought of doing it.

However, the Lorisian people did have mythology. They believed in the Reaper, one who would bring death to those who did not fulfill their daily duties. The very thought of the Reaper struck fear into the heart of every citizen.

Fear.

Fear was the only emotion that a Lorisian citizen would ever get to feel. Fear from the authorities. Fear from the reaper. Such fear and lack of curiosity gave power to the Ruse that made artistic pursuits nonexistent for the Lorisian citizen. Progress, as the authorities dubbed it, was uncapped. The population grew, and the boundaries expanded.

Welcome to Loris City.

A businessman sit behind his table. He wore a tuxedo on top of his white polo shirt, along with a pair of black pants and black shoes; His office uniform. Everyday, he wake up, have breakfast, and walk up to his office. In his room, beside his desk, there was a large window. From there, he would see several people working in the production of bread. Sandwiches were the common staple for a citizen, and they tasted the same always.

Just then, the man heard a knock on the door. No, not a knock, but a series of knocks. The knock was monotonous and repetitive, somehow resembling the man's daily life. The man walked up to the door and opened it, revealing the guise of a fine gentleman. His clothes were identical to that of the businessman's, except that he wore a hat and was carrying a suitcase. The gentleman began to speak.

"Good evening, Bob Meyer."

"Good evening sir. Have you come to check on our daily quota?"

"I do not care for such trivial things, my friend. Such a statistic only plays a small part in the request of my client, who holds me with great esteem. I have much more important business to accomplish here, Bob Meyer."

"That is reassuring to me, sir. May I please request your name?"

The gentleman smiled, revealing an assortment of wrinkles that defined a deftly-crafted disguise. Indeed, the gentleman had much more to do, for his duty was more important than Bob Meyer's was.

"They call me The Reaper "

---

The following day, the name Bob Meyer would be found on a large list placed on a wall located in the City Hall. It read:

LIST OF DECEASED CITIZENS AS OF FRIDAY, JUNE 117

Similarly, another man who went by the name of Counselor Mark Awanson would be in the middle of a phone call.

"Excellent work. Soon, we will be working hand in hand in order to terraform the very world as we see it."

"Indeed. I used to believe that such a mutual pact to be painstaking to make, but seeing that we both reap the rewards from our work, I choose to believe that we are receiving the rewards of our work accordingly."

"You've been very productive over the past few weeks, sir. I accolade you."

"My pleasure."

Counselor Mark Awanson hung up. A slight smile spread across his face. He was very pleased by the current flow of events.

Meanwhile, a young girl lay asleep in bed.

Far, far away, a hooded traveler walked the hills. A necklace dangled from her neck, as it glowed a vibrant blue. The traveler was surrounded by a vibrant palette of colors, although she did not give them much notice. She then turned towards her companion, who happened to be a towering stone golem.

"I've sure missed out on a lot, haven't I?"

GAME: Crush A Wish

Granted. You become happy for a while, then quickly become depressed after discovering that your "happiness" was derived from illegal hallucinogens. You then suffer speech problems as a result, and you are mocked for speaking with an annoying lisp.

I wish that I could understand Physics class.
