I will post this evening, or in the morning!

I feel bad for triple posting on the ooc. But feel the need to let y’al know!!!

Also, I’ve been waiting for others to post. As I’ve noticed a few members of our group have not posted in a bit.

So please let me know if I should be waiting for such things! As I don’t want to ‘speed-post’ and not give other peeps a chance to!!

@Goliah The nature of your quirk is that of two. Does he have the ability to sense, and react to certain attacks, or does he have super human endurance, and strength? Quirks in my hero academia are usually one sided. Todoroki's quirk is a mix of two but at the end of the day it still basically amounts to his body having a self functioning cool down system for its immense heat.

More over you have nothing relating to his early life, nor how exactly he came to be invited/join the mysterious black tree which isn't exactly a known criminal conglomerate and is invite only.

@vancexentan I was a little uncertain of how to approach it, honestly. I'm trying to figure out how to have it as a kind of Half-Hot Half-Cold quirk, where one parent has a quirk that essentially amounts to the abilities of Taskmaster, whereas the other parent is essentially Luke Cage, but he's severely limited by his own laziness.

The main CS for now is basically a proof of concept and I'm aiming to expand on his background and recruitment over the next 24-36 hours. I suppose in the end I'm aiming at creating a character that is incredibly capable, yet equally unmotivated. The basic gist of things is that he encountered Black Tree during an illegal poker game, since no one else in the legitimate scene would go against him and he was cocky that he could handle any backlash or accusations of cheating. After a scuffle, a Black Tree member (who specifically I leave to your discretion), notices the potential he possesses and Shill, who is still living with his parents at that point, agrees to the invite in an effort to escape his parents nagging and to essentially do what he wants without the expectations of other weighing over him.
He would have more than likely been put to work by Shade Walker under threat of death long ago if it hadn't been for his ability to provide the group with some degree of extra income from a fairly profitable market (using his quirk for what amounts to cheating and rigging tournaments), all in exchange for nothing more than the latest games & systems, junk food and 20% of his winnings.

Did you have any suggestions on how I could synergise his quirk a little better? Perhaps bring his reaction speed down to about silver medal Olympian speed so he can still dominate the FGC scene, making him weak against speedsters? Maybe half his strength or bring it down to silver medal level too so all he really has aside from the Taskmaster quirk is superhuman endurance that allows him to tank hits long enough to learn them?

I will be honest, my original inspiration for this was the game God Hand, but I thought that would be too OP or close to One For All.

Just a random question, as i see most others doing this. Should I be 'mentioning' others who i'm interacting with in posts? Is this something required?

Also. Apologies on not posting as soon as I stated i would. RL caught me off guard and distracted me.

@Goliah I think for your character you should focus more on his fighting prowess and ability to adapt his fighting style over having a large amount of brute force. It would set him apart from the other two Behemoths we have already. Deiselpunk being a slower more immovable tank, using machines to become this massive juggernaut. And Lord Zion who is decidedly more lethal and savage with his claws and beastly sorta nature. While both are beefy bruisers who have a great amount of power behind them, neither seem to have a high level of martial skill. That could be what your Character brings to the table quirk/combat wise. They could be the "weakest" of the super strong members but then outclasses them both in terms of skill and agility. But that's just my take on it.

@Jin Of Mana Mentioning people isn't required I don't think.

@vancexentan, @LemonZest1337 Scaled down Shill's strength and reaction speed so that the only things going for him are he endurance and ability to learn moves. His reaction speed is still high, but still within human limits. I also fleshed out his background some more.

@Goliah The rest of this is assuming you forgot to edit your quirk section: Once again Goliah its not a matter of his parents quirk its a matter of HIS quirk. A quirk should have two functions only if one is directly comparable to the other. Captain East for example his quirk is 'the man of tomorrow' he has no real special power but his body is super human in itself capable of fast speeds, strength, and endurance. Though he is no speedster, he's no hulk, and he's not immortal. Your character's quirk is split into two halves. Super human speed, and endurance. And the ability to instantly recognize an attack the second time seeing it, and onward assuming it requires movement. Those two are quirks that aren't mutually coming from the same place. Once's enhancing his brain power, and the other is enhancing his power, and stamina. One of those needs to be chosen. I'd say that super human strength, and endurance (while it already exists in this roleplay) would be the better of the two by virtue of reaction speed being a trainable thing and having less of an upper limit that one can't bench press a car.

And while the backstory part isn't the best way to get into a black tree fighting group I'll let it slide as at least its something. If you want tips still relating to the quirk I'd have background in some sort of fighting spot such as boxing and let him be a melee combat controller sort of deal even though real life fights, especially with quirk users, aren't the same as traditional boxing it gives him a ground work for solid foot work, and reflex training.

Ok is there a reason for the lack of posts? We just got done a bank robbery I wanted at least some cool down before the next mission. If no one has anything I guess I can force shift to the next job.

I was simply awaiting for others to post. I'm ok with roleplaying the downtime. Though am willing to perform a timeskip if others desire to time-skip.
