I guess I'll just follow your then @Ladypug. Btw Annabeth would give Cassius his sword back.

My Hero Academia: Another Story

Walking through the vast empty building, Peter couldn't help but admire his costume. He didn't really have an idea for what his "look" should be, so he just picked an outfit based off a video game he liked. It felt weird wearing something so fantasy, like he was a real super hero from the comics. What he thought was especially weird was how they had him grow out his hair to make his costume; everything from bandages to his arms to the leather in his boots were made with his hair. He had to go see some hair specialists to gather enough hair to have his costume done. But now that it's finished it looked and felt great. And more importantly, his clothing and the gear he has with him would meld into his stone shape and not fall off his body. They even had special pockets for his cellphone and some small items.

But shortly after he arrived, Peter lined up in front of Mr. Hayes with the other students. This was it. No time to waste on exposition or self-reflection. It was go time. While the city popping out of the ground so suddenly did surprise him, he couldn't lose his cool now that there were lives on the line. Robot lives maybe, but this simulation was suppose to reflect how they would act in a real world disaster. If he tried to excuse any failure because it was all just training, he'd be a terrible hero. Fires, robberies, accidents, even villains, just about everything that can go wrong during a disaster will happen. As soon as Mr. Hayes raised his arm Peter knew it was almost go time. He pulled his goggles down onto his face and activated them.

Explosions. Crashes. Screams. Peter knew this was all a simulation but it all sounded so eerily real, or at least as real as he thought it could be. Maybe this was just hollywood special effects. But it put Peter in a panicked state of mind. He tried to get a grip though: a hero can't freeze when people are relying on them. As soon as the clock started Peter ran off towards the destruction. Peter thought the disasters might started somewhere randomly within the city, but as he was running through the streets he noticed some red light glowing from one of the buildings. Before he could investigate further it exploded and smoke billowed out. He could hear screams from inside. "Shiiiit that was fast!"

Peter ran towards the burning building. Even if this was just training it was very, very real; he barely reached the door when he felt a searing heat hit his skin and caused him to flinch. This was real heat and likely a real fire. If he just ran in there as he was right now he'll likely end up burning himself to a crisp. "Damn! I didn't think I'd need to do this so soon." Crouching low to the ground Peter closed his eyes. When they opened he was in boulder form; a perfectly spherical shape that would allow him to move around easily. He had a good thirty or so minutes before he'd ware himself out, but if he manages his stamina he could last longer. He just needed to be quick and don't hesitate.

He rolled into the burning building, the heat still hot but not so bad now that he was in rock form. He had a hard time hearing anything with all the burning around him but soon he would hear some coughing nearby. But the smoke was blocking his sight; the heat might not bother him but he still couldn't see a damn thing with all of this smoke. He thought about yelling out to the person but he worried that doing so might make them pass out; this heat and smoke was cutting oxygen quickly, and if they waste their breath shouting they would faint. Peter just had to make due and moved slowly towards the sound of coughing, trying his best to move quickly but carefully. It wasn't long before he found the first victim. It looked like an office worker trapped underneath a fallen filing cabinet.

Coming to a stop Peter changed back into his human form, immediately feeling the heat and growling in pain. It was intense. "Don't worry, I am here!" He said with a smile as he tried to move the filing cabinet. It was hot to the touch, which thankful didn't burn Peter's hand too badly thanks to his hand wraps but he could definitely feel the heat. He looked down at the man and noticed that he was alive, but his leg was at a sickening angle. He couldn't walk out of here on his own. It was then that Peter heard another scream on the floor above; just what he was worried about. But first thing's first he had to get this man out of here.

Picking him up into his arms, Peter ran out of the building low but quickly. He was drenched in sweat by the time he took the man out from the building. His breath wasn't stable and Peter did his best to preform some basic CPR he learned while at HJ. Just enough that the man could breath steadily, and then Peter went back into the building to save the others, transforming into a boulder and moving up to the second floor.

The second one was a lady who was near a window but trapped by burning debris. Smoke filtered out of the broken window so she had some time against smoke inhalation, but the heat would end her if Peter didn't act fast. While in boulder form he looked and found a small emergency fire extinguisher. No way it was going to put out all of the fire in the building but it could open a path for her. Coming out of boulder form again Peter grabbed the fire extinguisher, which did burn his hands this time but at this point he had so much adrenaline flowing through his body he didn't notice. He went over to the burning debris and unloaded the entire canister onto the flames, smothering it into a smokey pile of ash and rubble. Running through the smoke Peter went to the woman and offered her his scarf to cover her mouth. "Have no fear a hero is here! Please keep your head down and follow me out, we'll get you to safety in no time!"

Escorting the woman out was easy enough but Peter felt fatigued. The heat and energy spent moving around in boulder form ate up much more stamina than he thought, and it hasn't even been five minutes yet! But he knew he could keep going. Once he ensured that the two office workers would be okay, he gave himself a few seconds to catch his breath as he ran towards the next disaster area. No more explosions this time but he's pretty sure he just heard something big crash into a building.

I think we have at least ten students so far. Is there going to be twenty students/characters for a full class?

My Hero Academia: Another Story

Peter Andrew

Appearance:

Regular

Costume

Name: Peter Andrew
Age: 16
Gender: Male

Hero Name: Avalanche
Quirk Name: Stone Shape
Quirk Type: Transformation
Quirk Description: Stone Shape allows Peter to change into a very large granite rock around five cubic feet or as small as one cubic inch, and weigh an appropriate amount based off his size. He can only take on simple shapes, with the most complex shape he can take is a perfectly spherical shape. In this form Peter can still sense as normal however he doesn't need to breath, though he can still be blinded/deafen. All Peter can do while in this form is roll or spin, with his spherical form being the best at doing both, and he can't change size unless he changes back to human first. He can transform even in spaces too small to normally fit his biggest form though whether or not he'll break free depends on what he's breaking free from. This form is very handy when falling from a high distance as either small or large boulder form is highly resistant against the sort of impact from falling up to around 100 feet.

When he transforms, his clothes tend to tear apart and possessions fall off his body, like backpacks and things in his pockets. Living creatures like people or animals aren't affected if he transforms even if he is holding onto them. It's very hard for him to control his momentum once he starts moving and he can't get out of his form until he comes to a complete stops, though if he's in human form he can transform into boulder form even while on the move. Doing enough damage to him that could shatter his form (Which means knocking off at least 10% of his current mass while in boulder form) does a critical amount of damage to him as well in either small or large form and any damage he has in his human form will also carry over into his boulder form as cracks and chips in the stone. When not moving in boulder form, he can remain in that form for at most thirty minutes, and less if he makes himself move around. Outside forces moving him like someone pushing him or if he turns into a boulder while on a slope doesn't count against that limit. Moving around in boulder form takes up a lot of his stamina, forcing him to rely on momentum to conserve his stamina. The bigger he is the more energy it takes for him to move. If he runs out of stamina he transforms back into his human form by force, and trying to change back will result in a lot of cracks and damage in his form, as well as an even shorter time limit until he either gets knocked out or just dies.

Inventory & Possessions:
Emergency Phone - Different from his regular cellphone, this is a phone meant solely for emergencies and can quickly call the police and alerts any nearby heroes with just a press of the button. It also can make a very loud noise louder than a shotgun blast in order to draw attention to his location. Lastly it can also be tracked via GPS as long as it's charged, and it has a 30 hour battery life.

Gadget Goggles - Special goggles Peter saved up his money to buy. Wearing it lets him use various features such as night vision, telescopes, and even heat detection. It also has a built in flash guard to defend against sudden bright lights. Needs to be charged though. Also works as water goggles.

First Aid Kit - A portable med kit that can handle minor injuries and lessen the severity of major wounds. Comes with stuff that can also be used to deal with common illness such as headaches, nausea, stomachaches, and so forth.

Travel Bag - Peter always carries a small travel bag that he can put his belongings into, like his cellphone and wallet, as well as a change of clothes in case he has to transform into a boulder and loses his clothes.

Sample Post:
Being a hero isn't easy. Peter knew that first hand as he saw his father lowered into the ground. He was a good man and a good husband, going above and beyond for his fellow men in the line of duty. Everyone called him a hero and Peter didn't think otherwise. But that doesn't mean it makes things easy. All his life his father told him to always be careful and to take care of himself. That things are never as simple as just taking the first step. Peter of course didn't believe his old man for a second and always knew he could do more if his dad just let him. But the reality was that you could never be prepared when the worse comes to worse.

After his father died Peter slowly recovered from his death and moved on with his life. While he still had the occasional flights of fancy about being a hero, it always came with the bitter pill about the risks. Instead of dwelling on it Peter just tried to focus on his education and working on his college credits towards law school. He wanted to join the police academy like his father but as an attorney instead of an officer. It was safer that way. His family could still be proud of him for following the family tradition while putting himself in a safe and comfortable job. He worked hard, read his books, took care of his body. Everything seem normal.

But true character is found not by what you show people, but what you hide.

Ever since that day Peter takes time after school to patrol his city. He keeps his ear to the ground to find trouble and gets involved when no one else is willing or able. During these times he can't show his face because he's worked so hard to make sure everyone liked what they saw. Instead he puts on a mask so he can finally do what he wanted to do all his life: take control. At first it was just around his school. Kids bullying each other during the day and thinking they can go home without a care in the world. He made it clear that it doesn't end there. When he heard about his friends having problems at their home life, he makes sure someone, anyone finds out. Cops, priests, teachers, he doesn't care how sensitive the matter is. People were getting hurt because of silence. When they whispered, he would be the one to scream. Peter thought he was helping. He should have listened to his father and remember:

It was never simple.

Everything Peter did only made things worse. People became angry and he only knew one way how to deal with them. Soon his friends started to stop hanging out with him, some of them never came back to school. Drama unfolded all around him and all he wanted to do was help by dealing with them directly. It all came to it's limit when he heard his best friend, the one person who knew and thought like he did, told everyone what Peter did. Even he couldn't believe the sort of extremes that Peter went just to do something, anything, instead of feeling powerless all the time. And now instead of becoming the hero that he wanted to be, he because public enemy number one.

A year later Peter moved away from his hometown. His mothers and his family fought long and hard to protect him from the others who would want to hurt him, both violent and legally, for the things he's done. He had the support of his family but deep down he questioned if it was really all worth it. If being a hero was something he really wanted to do. In order to make sure that this whole thing could blow over safely, Peter was sent to live with his uncle in San Francisco, fortunately right as he would be going to high school. It was then that Peter would have what he thought was his last chance to make everything all right: U.J. The hero academy started by the number one hero himself, All Might. If Peter could make it through this school, to make it to the top, then maybe he would know what he needs to do to be a hero. To learn the skills and knowledge instead of just the drive and the passion.

This was his chance to make things right.

@KoL

I made edits to his quirk to his explain his drawbacks more. I choose a stamina limit: if he just transforms and doesn't try to make himself move he could last about 30 minutes before his body gets too sore to maintain his boulder form. Trying to move around on his own while in boulder form also costs a lot of stamina, though if he is in a smaller form like a pebble or rock it doesn't take as much energy. If someone moves him around or if he transforms on a slope so he rolls down naturally also doesn't consume much stamina since he's not trying to make himself move, he's just letting the momentum carry him. Peter is still on a time limit even during these moments though. He still can't transform out of boulder form while he's moving though whether he means to or not, so using momentum to move around can be a double-edge sword if he's rolling towards something he doesn't want to hit.

My Hero Academia: Another Story

@Zaphander

The description of your character's quirk is a little bit vague when it comes to his resistance to damage while transformed, just to make it clearer, how much could he fall before getting any serious damage from say... hitting a concrete sidewalk? As in how high of a building could he jump from without fearing that he would break himself on impact?

Also, since he doesn't breathe while transformed, how long can he remain in that form without suffering choking himself?

Lastly, I suppose that he can only use his phone to alert heroes that he knows the number of, right? Unless he has another way of getting people's phone numbers, without them giving it to him, of course.

@KoL

I would say a ten stories tall, so around 100 feet or so, would be the safest average height before he would take notable damage from falling onto solid concrete. 300 feet would be about as lethal as anyone else falling without some sort of quirk that could negate the damage. Of course if he falls on something like say, a sharp pipe or a jagged piece of rock, that's even more risky since all that weight concentrated to that point could shatter and possibly impale him.

Also he doesn't need to breath in rock form, but that doesn't mean he has to either. He could stay in his rock form indefinitely until enough damage occurs where he would shatter or he chooses to get out when he's not moving. Shattering in this instance would be if he looses at least 10% of his mass in whatever form he's in, with smaller forms being easier to shatter than bigger ones thanks to how relatively small 10% would be. This way he could so something like say, turn into a small rock and hide in a forest or under some water. Though he still can feel tired, hungry, sick, etc, but these are usually only because he was already suffering from one of those things before he transformed.

As for his phone I figured there was a sort of hero hotline for when you need immediate attention, and not just police level assistance. Like if 911 calls for the police, maybe there's another number that calls for heroes. It's why it's used only for dire emergencies like if there's a legit villain on the lose blowing things up and burning buildings down and not just a random purse snatcher. I guess I could say the number would alert a specific hero agency if Peter knows their number.
