Boku No Hero Academia RP: New Horizons

Hope this CS looks alright, let me know if anything needs changing!

Appearance:


Name: Robin Hara

Superhero Name: (Leave Blank until a certain point in the roleplay)

Age: 16

D.O.B: December 20th

Weight: 130lbs

Height: 5'8

Personality:
Warm, joking and enthusiastic, Robin carries the air of a free spirit and a laid back individual. He's quite prepared to go with the flow in most cases and let the world around him guide him rather than charting his own course, that said, he has a great passion for nature and loves to admire scenery and wildlife. He has an adventurous streak and desire to take in new information, try new things and experience what the world has to offer.

History:

Growing up, Robin was surrounded by the ideals of heroism, he was born in America where his father and mother were working on gadgets and costume commissions for new hero start ups overseas. Every now and then he was allowed to play around with the latest tool that crime fighters might one day be utilising, sitting in and watching his parents tinker away or draft up designs for new outfits and utilities. Robin's family moved around several times while he was growing up, travelling around the world before returning to his mother's homeland of Japan where they eventually settled down when he was around 9 years old. Until then he had grown used to making friends fast and enjoying the time he had with them, knowing that it was likely limited. He learned to live in the moment and appreciate things in the now rather than worrying too much about what was to be and what had been before.

Given his father's quirk of mechanical manipulation and his mother's wind controlling capabilities, it was quite a surprise to find Robin was a mutant-type but it didn't matter too much as the pair were able to support his growth and provide him the freedom and space to learn to control his flight abilities, even providing gadgets like stabilisers and safety bracers while he got the hang of flying. As their only son, the family unit was always close and supportive, and with their constant involvement with hero agencies all over the world there was little doubt in Robin's mind that he wanted to enter the industry for himself. Following this ambition, when the question arose of where he would go to study his parents cashed in a few contacts and were recommended to Chihaiten Academy where a few of their clients had done their training. And with that, young Robin was taking his first steps on the journey to become a hero.

Quirk

Quirk Name: Avian Mutation

Quirk Description: Having a mutation type quirk that gives him certain avian features. Robin is able to glide and fly with the use of his wings. His feet are bird-like and have sharp talons with accompanying strong legs, he has enhanced agility and eyesight, being able to leap high and move quickly while seeing details from high up and perceiving things faster than a regular person is able to, as such having an increased reaction speed. He can also manipulate the air around him to a limited degree, allowing him to make his flights easier and also send strong gusts of air at a target, though this is currently rather taxing and needs more training before he is able to properly utilise this ability.

Quirk Weaknesses: Much of Robin's strength comes from his mobility which is heavily reliant on his wings, if they take damage he loses a lot of his advantage, he also suffers greatly if indoors or within a confined space. Also, if the weather is particularly bad he cannot fly well and risks being blown about by strong winds. Furthermore, while his hollow bones allow him added agility, they are brittle and more easily broken than regular bones and make him much lighter than an average person.

_{"As my mother would say: Friendship is the spice of life."}

Name: Kenta Masuda

Age: 16

Appearance: Kenta’s frame is a fairly average one, short and slightly stocky with some toned elements along with a sharp jawline and rounded facial features. He typical has a relaxed posture and body language and a cheerful expression on his face What’s most notable about his look and the part that most often stands out to people seeing him for the first time are the two black slim horns poking out of the top of his head and the pointed tail behind him. His hair is long, messy, bright red and normally covers at least one of his eyes, the pupil of his eye is also red while the surrounding iris is black in colour.

Personality: Kenta’s personality is that of a reasonably stable coaster, he enjoys to take the path of least resistance in life while moving from a self-set goal to the next and doing what he can keep himself entertained. He prides himself on avoiding stress and being able to avoid sparks of anger and tension that might come with it and does what he can to teach others about why it’s important to do the same, he hates seeing others aggravated and annoyed, especially if they’re his friends.

Friends are a big part of Kenta’s life, he spends most of his time in the company of at least one or digitally messaging one of them if he’s on his own. Though he can amuse himself with his own thoughts and ideas if he needs to, so long as there is something to hold his attention such as watching clouds go by and listening to the wind while pondering what he might want to do in the next few days.

Kenta is not the shiniest tool in the shed, he does not possess outstanding academic or athletic qualities but he does excel in terms of his planning and adaptability, coming up with creative solutions to solve problems either far in advance or very close to the deadline depending on how long he had allowed himself to be distracted. He is also good at assessing and helping others, working out which of their skills exceed his own and which areas he can best help in. For the most part his grades are average but in group projects he will often put a lot of effort into encourage others and help them out to achieve the best they can, often learning a lot himself in such instances.
He knows that he takes the easy approach to life and is happy with the minimum requirements but won’t allow others to be hampered by his attitude and step up to ensure he does not let down or fail anyone who relies on him.

History:
Kenta’s upbringing was largely uneventful but he was always taught proper manners and to be respectful. His family now runs a bakery tucked away in an older part of Tokyo city where he was born and raised. His mother had always been in the baking business, aided by her transformative quirk ‘Cooking companion’ which allowed her to bring forth a small doll-like companion with an exquisite set of taste buds and culinary prowess. His father meanwhile was a licensed hero who had a reasonably short lived career as ‘Diablo: The Devil Hero’ named due to his above average strength, ability to spit fire and mark evil doers with a creepy brand, and over all a demonic appearance, he wasn’t as popular or marketable as other heroes at the time and often got mistaken for a villain at first. But it was when he found out Kenta’s mother was pregnant that he decided he would focus on raising the boy and spending time with his family rather than risking his life for strangers.

As a boy, Kenta’s enthusiasm was split between being enamoured by heroes and learning to bake alongside his parents in their bakery together. At school, despite at first having a few issues with his abnormal appearance, he managed to find a cohort of good friends that kept him company and helped him to find more ways to enjoy his free time. He discovered his quirk later than most, believing for a while he was quirkless and resigning himself to an ordinary life as a baker. It was only when he learned to snap his fingers that he surprised both himself and everyone in the room with the sudden appearance of an admittedly creepy mask floating before him and speaking in an odd echoing voice, at first Kenta simply believed he was seeing things or had found favour with a ghost but soon enough it became clear from the creature’s elaboration that mask was indeed his quirk.

With a renewed enthusiasm having discovered his quirk, Kenta proudly proclaimed to his parents that he wished to become a hero, and while his parents were hesitant at first due to the danger such a job would pose but they soon came around when the young man brought up his father’s time performing acts of heroism. Diablo even began to teach him a few tricks and tips, assuring his wife “If I start training him now there’s no way he’ll get hurt by the time he gets through U.A.”

Quirk Name: Creepy Mask

Quirk Type: Transformation

Quirk Basics: With a snap of his fingers, Kenta can summon a sentient creature resembling a ghost-like mask which can in turn conjure up a pair of gloves to help him out in a given situation, if Kenta physically touches and ‘marks’ a person or object then these hands are also able to interact with an manipulate what is marked as well. He can also put on the gloves and mask to gain full control of the abilities himself.

Quirk Strengths:
• Mask friend – Kenta can summon the mask and hands by snapping his fingers, these hands possess some enhanced strength between them and have the ability to float but cannot interact with anything aside from Kenta’s body unless he has marked an object. The hands are controlled by the mask who takes direction from Kenta but is more than capable of acting alone as well. The mask and objects are able to phase through walls like a ghost but cannot take objects through with them.

• Cursed touch – Once he touches a person or an object with his own hands and intentionally marked it a small insignia will appear, after this the object is able to be interacted with by the hands.

• Mask barrier – The mask is able to create a barrier of solid air in front of itself, if the hands are present the barrier becomes stronger.

• Dream invasion – If he makes contact with a sleeping or unconscious target he and his companion are able to invade their dreams and converse with them, if the individual is unaware of the fact they’re dreaming then has control of the dreamscape.

Quirk Weaknesses:
• If the mask is damaged badly or broken it will disappear and not be able to return until it has restored itself, the same goes for the gloves. This will not only prevent the barrier ability but if the mask is destroyed first it will effectively kill the hands which will become directionless and limp. If they are still being worn though they will continue to enhance the user’s strength.

• A marked individual can target and damage both the hands and mask, while they are resilient, sharp objects work well against the gloved hands while brute force attacks will break the mask quite easily as if it was wood if they land.

• While in the dreamscape, Kenta’s physical body is incapacitated as if he too was asleep and he has no real way of knowing what’s going on outside, also if the occupant becomes aware they are dreaming it becomes much harder for Kenta to keep control of things.

• The creature is a proud and prideful one. If Kenta is not wearing the mask and directly controlling his quirk then taunts and tricks may distract the creature and lead it to divert from whatever Kenta has planned.

Quirk Techniques:
• Lift - The hands can grab Kenta by the shoulders and hoist him into the air, carrying him around at a decent speed. They can also throw him in a given direction.

• Multi-hand combo - Working in tandem with his companions, Kenta delivers a relentless barrage of fast and well-coordinated strikes to avoid giving an opponent any rest and time to recover between hits.

• Trap - The hands position themselves underground and when the time is right spring out and root a marked person to the ground by gripping onto their legs while Kenta moves in to deliver a kick.

• Equip - If Kenta puts on the gloves and/or masks he is able to control them and their power is added to his own, for instance, the strength of the gloves is added to his own, he is able to leap further and he can conjure up the mask barrier.

@Aquaknight

Would you class something like Tokoyami's Dark Shadow as a Transformation or Mutation type quirk or a combination of both? Because his body is always altered but the quirk isn't always active.

Our Hero Academia: Rising Age of Heroes

I'm certainly interested in this, can I grab a spot?! :P I'll start working on my CS right away!

House-based RP (ASOIAF) (High Casual+)

I'll go for a captain of the hold/guard if that's possible.

House-based RP (ASOIAF) (High Casual+)

So, in terms of the Kingdom allegiance of the House what would you guys like?

I'm currently considering a Riverlands House loyal to House Tully - so basically things go to shit around the time of the Red Wedding when the Frey's take the Riverlands. The RP could document the House attempting to survive, and the family stay together, etc. The RP would naturally therefore start prior to the Red Wedding.

Edit: I made a crest, check it out.

@Blonded

All looks and sounds very good to me.

Epic City: Starburst

Another day another batch of battles rocked the city. Nito had his hood up among a crowd towards the commercial centre of the city when reports began rolling in of attacks and fights in the streets not too far away, some people began to hurry about but for others it was just a day to day occurrence, most of the population had some form of super power after all. Cracking his neck from one side to the other he slipped down a dark alley between two stores and pulled out his smartphone, loading up a map and peering around his surroundings, it was bad enough he was out during daylight but he couldn't afford to wait until nightfall and with the fighting going on attention was drawn away from anything he might be doing.

With a pop of displaced air he vanished from the alleyway and appeared inside the store room of the shop he had been stood beside, the lights were off which was a good sign, he crept along a series of shelves while glancing down towards his phone again, once he reached the far end of the room he vanished once more. For a brief moment he was inside the broom closet of the next building along, only a pit stop though as his next teleport landed him where he had been aiming, again the lights were out and as he flicked his phones torch on and waved it around the area he knew he was in the right place. Mannequins, at first they made the young man jump but soon he was over it and began his search, the store had only recently shut down, the staff were yet to clear out the remaining stock from a sale. Swinging the bag off his back, Ron stuffed a few packs of socks and underwear into it, not paying too much mind to the styles, he then grabbed a pair of dark coloured jeans, checking the size against the ones he was wearing.

It wasn't often that Nito went after new clothes, but his old ones were beginning to wear out and he felt it was time for a change. As he was about to go searching for a new shirt he heard an alarm sounding from the store and muttered a curse under his breath, in the blink of an eye he was gone. Back to the broom cupboard, back to the store then back to the alleyway. His head whipped back and forth to check his arrival hadn't been seen, thankfully nobody else was around. He heard the alarm faintly around the corner but decided against going to investigate. Instead, he took off the other way, head down as he zipped up his bag and disappeared into another crowd.

Epic City: Starburst

Name: Ronald D. Granthis

Freak Label: He is largely unknown but calls himself Nito

Age: 22

Faction: Freak

Ability: Teleportation, he is able to teleport to any location within 10 feet with ease and even chain these together in rapid succession, the shorter the distance the easier it becomes. If given time to focus, he can teleport to any area if he can recall or visualise it in great detail, usually he will leave a mark at areas he frequents so that he can recall them easier. He is also able to teleport objects and other people but this is more taxing depending on the complexity and distance.

Psychic dullness, he is naturally dull to all forms of psychic waves. This makes them much less effective on him, both for better or for worse. He has no control over this.

Mutation: His skin is green and vaguely resembles that of a snake along his body, his eyes are a pale yellow and operate better under low level-light conditions.

Weakness: Being doused in water will render him unable to teleport until it has been wiped away or dried off. Droplets are fine and any water within the body does not affect this, though if he does anything more than wash his hands then it becomes nearly impossible to use his abilities until they are dry.

Personality: Ron, or Nito as he likes to call himself, is a drifter through and through. Knowing he has little hope for a normal life given his freakish nature and far too concerned for his own safety to get caught up the battles between heroes and villains, he looks out for himself and does what he can to live an easy life and enjoy what parts he can. More often than not he'll simply take what he needs, but usually he employs a robin-hood-esque mentality and only takes from those who won't miss it. He keeps to himself for the most part but if he finds someone he gets along with then Nito will open up and reveal his chatty and relaxed nature.

Appearance: A shorter man, about 5'6, with a slightly chubby build given his propensity to teleport when able. His green skin's colour is matched by his long hair which often hangs over his eyes, he normally wears sunglasses over his yellow eyes when out in daylight along with gloves and layers of hooded clothing to allow him to blend into a crowd when he needs to.

Background: Born in Europe before winding up in the USA with his family trying to avoid the horrors springing up around the world, alas they were unable to conceal the boy's increasingly visibly freakish nature and when he reached 14 years of age they had to send him away to the one place he might be able to live in relative safety. Making it to the under city was easy enough given his instinctive understanding of his powers, upon arrival, Ron was taken into a band of others around his age who were in similar circumstances, the group rolled together and looked after one another in the undercity, Ron occasionally sneaking into the city above and snooping around when he could. Soon he left the group behind and struck out on his own, taking over an abandoned apartment then slowly filling it with furnatiture lifted from fancy homes as well as making his marks around the town so he was able to hop around and maintain a low profile, his main often being storage houses where he could pinch supplies from without much notice being payed.
