My Hero Academia: Evolution

I like @DangDude's character, Chihiro. She's kind of like the opposite of my character both personality and backstory-wise, which always makes for interesting stories :D

@Ebil Bunny

Chihiro and Namie I can see being at odds all the time. The bossiest of bossy women

EDIT: @Inkarnate I'm really excited to see how you designed the homeroom teacher, by the way. Knightmare is just the perfect name for an armored badass hero.

My Hero Academia: Evolution

I agree; we've got a great cast shaping up here. I'm personally excited to see the first movements of the roleplay; any quirk tests you guys have planned, or more importantly, First Year Boot Camp.

I also think Ume will be more than happy to receive some lotions and potions.

*A wild noob appears*

@Nightscape You're knowledgeable already . Welcome to the guild, and enjoy your stay!

My Hero Academia: Evolution

Yea. I'd say a deadline at the end of the week sounds fine.

@Pirouette

I agree, but if others ask for more time in order to finish their CS, I think that should be addressed as well.

My Hero Academia: Evolution

Just finished a hour ago! The CS may have a few grammatical errors that I didn't pick up on, but I'm feeling pretty good about it nonetheless.

Ume stands at the above average height of 5'4", her pale white skin constantly adorned in the comfortable wears of hoodies, sweat-attire, and jeans. Rarely will you see the teen found in anything that shows skin below the nape of her neck, with even her hands bundled up in latex or other close-fitting gloves. A white mouth-mask and some simple neck jewelry usually finish off this bizarre look, creating a cozy suit that the young lady dons everyday in order to feel more comfortable with her own skin.

Ume's eyes shine a light blue color above all of this, however. Such bright orbs commonly twinkle by the girl's turquoise-colored hair, a welcome side-effect of her quirk's ability. Ume's mane of hair is more often than not tied back into a ponytail or two behind her head, giving the girl a subtle tone of feminity under all of her gear.

Ume's skin is able to secrete a hormone that, when released, can reactivate the internal processes of nearby dead skin cells and cause them to collect into basic, geometric objects. Yeah, she can make walls of dead skin. Creepy, right?

Ume's body produces such a substance in the tissues of her outer-skin layer; scratching her skin will release a bout of the hormone. Depending on how long she scratches, Ume can release more or less of her hormone. The more hormone she disperses, the larger the objects she can construct. Ume's quirk has a range of about 50 meters, attracting reactivated dead skin cells together with an almost magnetic-like force in a radius around her. However, Ume can only form objects from the cells if they are within 20 meters of herself; if they are too far, she will have to wait as they fly and collect towards her. The dead skin cells are formed into a dense, chalky substance when activated; their texture is much like worn brick. Dead skin cells can also be reactivated and attached to living skin cells, giving Ume the ability to create momentary growths on her or other people's body. She cannot form these growths inside a person; only on the outer layer of skin. Any skin that is completely covered by clothing or the likes cannot be affected. Currently, Ume is only able to activate cells and keep them shaped for around five seconds at a time. Afterwards, the cells will not be able to be activated again, and will flake off into the air.

This versatile power comes with some drawbacks, however. The more hormone Ume releases, the more hormone her body will produce; the more hormone her body produces, the more energy and stamina is sapped from her body. Though this process allows the girl to release hormone faster over a short period of time, it can also quickly run Ume's stamina completely dry if not regulated. Additionally, Ume cannot directly control the amount of hormone she produces, but instead must not scratch her skin for a varying period of time after releasing the hormone to allow her body to naturally tone down the production of the substance. Aswell, she cannot manipulate the hormone after it is secreted; Thus, if she were to accidentally scratch herself, Ume would unintentionally cause nearby dead skin cells to form into a random basic shape. She could not stop this from happening after she's initiated the hormone. The final drawbacks are much more physical; the production of Ume's hormone causes her skin to be excessively itchy, red, and peeling at all times. The most prominent places for this reaction are all around her torso, arms, hands, legs, and the immediate area around the mouth. Luckily, Ume's face and neck have been spared. Furthermore, the girl's hair has turned into a greenish-turquoise color through exposure to Ume's hormone.

[EXAMPLE SCENARIOS]

Ume scratches her skin for 2 seconds: She can create a 1 meter by 1 meter wall, with no symptoms afterwards. Hormone production will return to normal after four seconds of not scratching.

Ume scratches her skin for 4 seconds: She can create a 3 meter by 1 meter wall, with no symptoms afterwards. Hormone production will return to normal after six seconds of not scratching.

Ume scratches her skin for 6 seconds: She can create a 5 meter by 1 meter wall, with slight dizziness afterwards. Hormone production will return to normal after eight seconds of not scratching.

Ume scratches her skin for 8 seconds: She can create a 7 meter by 1 meter wall, with increased dizziness and a slight headache afterwards. Hormone production will return to normal after ten seconds of not scratching.

< Et Cetera >

(Symptoms/abilities will continue to stack as Ume continues to release her hormone without letting her body recuperate. Symptoms will most likely refrain after hormone production is returned to normal, unless a sizable amount of Ume's stamina has been used.)

Through years of living with the side-effects of her quirk, Ume has learned quite a bit about the medical side of skin-care. Her own experiences regarding her condition have caused Ume to be proficient in the treatment of surface cuts, bruises, peelings, and burns. Furthermore, Ume commonly brings a satchel along with her filled with ointments, bandages, and the likes. So if you ever need an on-call skin-care doctor, you know your girl.

Aswell, Ume has been known to be a rather talented ameture at sketching and the art of drawing. She has an uncanny knack for remembering faces, and has currently been practicing the anatomy of the human body. She has a ways to go, but it's a hobby the young lady finds peace and some rather calmful pride in.

Finally, Ume is proficient in the composition of electronic music, namely in the genres of Lofi and Chill Jazz. She has currently published two albums that are available online (Rusted Colors and Too Many Days), and is known to have an eloquent and somewhat practiced singing voice.

My goals and envisioned implications for Ume rely heavily on her character development and progression. Story-wise, Ume will be a rather self-fearing young girl dressed in the disguise of a confident Tomboy. Through her disgust of her own quirk, the negative effects it has on her body, and the over-all pessimistic self-image she harbors for herself, Ume will enter Ishin Academy with little of the ambitious and carefree spirit that many of the more excited students may portray. However, she has entered the Academy because of the dimming hope that the structure of the 2nd best hero school will be able to change her; lest this be for better or for worst. Ume's growth will ideally be that of unraveling and exploring herself along with the youth of Ishin, slowly becoming able to attune herself with who she is, and who she can be. The rigorous training of Ishin Academy can be a catalyst for this growth, as well as the students who surround her.

Furthermore, I believe the endeavor to morph Ume's strife into strength could very well be mutual. The bonds she forms with her classmates as she evolves can be a scenario that strengthens not only Ume's personality, but others in turn. This can be exemplified when the darker sides of her classmates are revealed to Ume; her deep-felt empathy could be a welcoming and sincere point of development and plot for both characters.

Regardless, there are a lot of ways Ume could sway based on the turns of the plot. The occurrences and emotions she encounters in her progression can be influential, and can change the way she develops recognition of her purpose. All-and-all, Ume is a complex, emotionally tangled character that has expansive room to grow and change. She'll have a very long way to becoming a hero, but the situations that flourish from her rising to the occassion can be interesting nonetheless.

@DruSM157@Inkarnate I read over your character sheets, and I noticed that the format/writing was more dependant on the personality of your characters, instead of a focus on their backstory. Would you like us to continue that trend when we make our own character-sheet formats?

My Hero Academia Evolution

@DruSM157 Hell, I'll take a crack at this Roleplay. I've been in a very My Hero mood these past months, might as well stretch that ambition to its fullest.

EDIT: I do already have another RP that I am invested in at the moment, along with tending to my kids and my in-home work. I will be able to write to your standards, but I though I should give you a little disclaimer; I may be slower. Is that alright?
