Current To those I RP with, I haven't dropped off of the face of the earth, just had a mental health crash but am recovering. Now to catch up on posting.

The worst thing about mental illness is you have to look after yourself a disgusting amount. I know it's the only way to actually be in a fit state to look out for others, but it still feels wrong.

Judging by the Internet's definitions of introversion and extraversion, you'd think everyone's either an extreme hermit or a party animal with no in between.

Bio

A frazzled British thirtysomething cat mum with something of a tea addiction.

I like a wide range of RP genres, but have two absolute favourites: Pokemon and magical girls. (If someone manages to combine the two, I'll be VERY happy!) I post fairly regularly, but sometimes shit mental health days crop up - if that causes any delays, I'll try to resume posting ASAP.

@Stern Algorithm Ah, yes when you put it that way, it makes sense. A shotgun like effect is fine, in fact that has potential, because one NPC can use sonic bullets by channeling sound through her body. She could help Pow train with that ability later on.

Personally I don't mind that a pistol shrimp's snap only works underwater, she lives mostly on land so who's to say her version wouldn't work with air? I do see why you referenced Gang Orca now though.

And yep, thanks for clearing up the details about the villain. I like the poison ivy idea, that works better than relying on her peanut allergy to boost her strength. And Super Serum works well as a Quirk name, it's short, simple and descriptive. While I do love the punny and referential character names in MHA (and went with that in this RP - Freya as a reference to the Norse goddess whose symbol is a cat, and Kerianne means dark/darkness), puns work better for names of characters than names of Quirks for that reason.

Both characters are now approved, so feel free to add them to the Characters section!
@TruthHurts22 Yep, that sounds fine, and I just added your characters to the list :)
@TruthHurts22 He could increase that later on with the drug, although obviously not without mental and physical consequences.

Anyway, both characters are accepted as far as I'm concerned, so move them to the Characters section once @Heartfillia approves!
@TruthHurts22 Oh yeah, that'd be a good weakness, depending how many of the beings there were. For that, yeah, between seven and nine sounds reasonable, as they'd be difficult to control.
@TruthHurts22 Hmm, around seven at a time could be the maximum he could make without losing control from the mental strain? Of course, that'd take a major toll. Like you implied in your sample post, creating three at once without any major issues would be reasonable, although keeping them active for too long should be tough on him.

Looking forward to what happens with the EVO thing!
@TruthHurts22 Yep, I figured he'd still be using the drug, hence the vials. Anyway, I love love LOVE the plot point potential with this! The idea of this RP is that, while there is a loose overarching plot, the players mostly build the story. So the EVO thing would open up subplot possibilities, which are strongly encouraged, especially for the villains as we haven't had many for them yet.

As for side effects of his Quirk, yeah some level of mental strain would be likely. The physical strain thing puts a nice limit on how many "children" he can create though. Also I'm guessing he can fight, but isn't fast due to the deformed foot, and can only punch/grab with one hand? So he would rely on the creations to make up for this.

I like your student character too, so many cinnamon rolls in this ^_^ And that's a creative Quirk, I'm looking forward to seeing her development with it later on.

Once you clarify those few things about the villain, I'll gladly accept both characters!
@Stern Algorithm Don't worry, you don't have to read through the entire thread, although yep I recommend looking over the current arc from the last GM post. We can give you a summary of events so far if you'd like.

Anyway, on to the characters...

While your shrimp girl looks fun, some things need toning down a little. Since the sound attack is based on a pistol shrimp's snapping, a sudden burst of sound seems more likely than a Gang Orca-like paralysing ultrasound move. If it were more like Jiro's attacks, that'd be fine. Also, at this stage, smashing through concrete (at least with one blow) seems a bit much. I know you based that on a mantis shrimp's strength, but if you're going with her shell isn't tough enough to stop bullets, I say she should be able to crack concrete, only smashing it after several punches. Also doing this too much in succession would probably damage her shell, which of course would grow back, but that'd be a drawback in a fight. She could build up her strength over time.

Other than that, the way her Quirk affects her day-to-day life sounds interesting, and that sample post made me laugh. That clumsiness has good comedy potential.

As for your villain... Hmm, that Quirk would likely have more drawbacks than that, I've got to say. For one, all those staples and constant bio-rejection, wouldn't that be painful? Also, the peanut allergic reaction would set in faster than that, if it's bad enough for her to pass out after five minutes. She could get a very short boost of strength, like a minute or two, but if her throat swelled and her stomach cramped up in agony, that'd hinder her ability to fight.

Also have to say, not sure about the blood armour, since her Quirk is a side effect of immune reactions, not the ability to control the reactions themselves. At age 37 and as an experienced villain, it'd be unlikely for her to discover new uses of her Quirk anyway, and she already has regular armour so she wouldn't need it.

I don't know about the name of the Quirk either. Quirk names are usually snappy and to-the-point, whereas this one doesn't describe much except that it has to do with the lymphatic system.

I do like the backstory, though, and her loyalty being mostly elsewhere would make for some interesting conflict within the League of Villains.

If you make a few edits to both character sheets, I'll be happy to look over them again, and Heartfillia will give her input soon.
@Pirouette Loving the symbolism there in that intro post! I'll gladly accept him, now to wait for Heartfillia's approval.
@Stern Algorithm Yep, what Heart said, it's still early days IC. You can act like you've always been there, that or a few transfer students would be plausible to fill the gaps left by people who quit.

We do particularly need villains though, more so than we need other students.
@Pirouette Well, for reasons, SimpleWriter has handed over judging responsibility to me and Heartfillia. So, you're officially accepted :)
