Noble Arms. A mysterious power that surfaced during the twilight of World War II - a fact that even today have made many sigh in relief; for the power that Noble Arms lent to its master would have undoubtedly made the already destructive conflict so much more terrible. At present time, institutions have been founded in order to control the rapidly surfacing ability to summon powerful weapons - weapons that could, to the bafflement of scientists today, disregard the laws of physics.

Noble Arms are tools that are innate in the users mind, and summoned by their will into reality. For reasons that still cannot be explained despite years of research, Noble Arms only take the form of weapons from before the First World War, however, despite the antiquity of these forms, the power they bare to the battlefield is unlike anything modern technology has been able to produce.

The ability to manipulate the elements to the users will.

Force that can reduce matter down to atoms in seconds.

The strength to withstand the explosion of a nuclear missile.

All of these powers and more still have surfaced along side Noble Arms, and the ones who bare them, the Arms Masters, are sought after by countries all around the world. Where once the strength of a country was decided by the technological strength of their Army, it is now judge by the power of their Arms Masters.

It is now 2015, and the tradition of Arms Masters has been deeply established in society. There are academy's, school's, and programs dedicated to advancing the abilities of Arms Masters for the sake of their country. Truly, there can be no doubt as to the influence that Arms Masters and Noble Arms holds in today's generation.

Focus now on the Trinidad Noble Arms Academy; based in the Philippines, Trinidad is an international school known for its low standards and high graduation rate. It is a school that produces second-rate and mediocre Arms Masters, with no notable achievements save one: it was the Academy that produced the Hero of 1987, Angelito Jaime who single-handedly ended the war between the ASEAN member nations and China before it had even begun.

Now, though its reputation is tattered and its results unspectacular, Trinidad remains a highly populated Academy, boasting of a population of over 2000 students. This is due in part, to Trinidad's unique scholarship system that allows the lower class, who normally are unable to enroll in an Arms Masters Academy, to enroll. However, this year, things have changed; the director had suddenly passed-away, and another one has taken his place. This Director is driven, determined, and powerful. He has announced that he would be remaking the Academy into a first-rate producer of Arms Masters around the world, and he would take that first step by announcing the schools participation in the Noble Arms Summit - an international tournament for all the elite student Arms Masters. The Director will achieve this goal by all means; even if it means culling down hundreds of incapable students.

What path will you take on the dawn of this sudden revolution?

So yeah, this is an RP inspired by all those battle-school anime types (most notably Rakudai Kishi no Eiyuutan & Gakuen Toshi) and just checking if anyone is interested at all.

Also, not sure if I should make it into a Casual-level or Free-level RP. I guess I'll have you guys decide?

General Interest Check

Noble Arms:
Noble Arms take the form of weaponry that appeared from before World War I; each Noble Arm posses powerful abilities beyond normal human capacity, however can only be used if they are released by their user. Noble Arms exist in a kind of 'hyperspace' that is unique to its user and can be called from there - in essence, an Arms Master is always armed.
Noble Arm have an astonishingly versatile ability pool, from calling down fire, to strengthening the body, etc., and more often than not, possess more than one ability. However, similar to physical activity, using a Noble Arm is draining physically and mentally - extended use of ability is much akin to overexerting yourself on both fronts, and as such, so much more fatal to overdo.

curious as to the limits of this setting, what would be considered a weak Noble Arm, as well as a upper teir one, just to get an idea of what our limits and such are for abilities.

Sorry for the lack of response guys. Classes have just restarted so I was swamped with enrollment issues. Good news is that it's a weekend tomorrow so I can fix a response all day. Again, sorry for the delay.

@Mistress Dizzy Age ranges from 13~18 years old.

@GypsyDangerZone The tiers of Noble Arms are determined by the number of military countermeasures available against it. For example, a Noble Arm that simply strengthens the user is considered low tier because it can be neutralized by a number of factors, while a Noble Arm that can shoot lasers is considered a high tier one because of the lack of countermeasures against it.
