Welcome to Matsubara Hero Academy...or rather what used to be a Hero Academy. Over the past ten years, its found itself struggling to stay relevant. Agencies and sponsors lost interest after several years of its graduates not being proper hero material mentally. It tried to recover but the damage was done. It lost most of its funding. It lost the training facilities. It lost the on-site dormitories. It started to offer more and more non-hero classes to break even, until over half the student body suddenly weren't even trying to become heroes. It's practically a regular high school now. A regular high school with Hero classes.

Last year, the previous Hero class teacher, an old z-list Hero, has finally retired. Every hero is either too famous to take this job, or too busy trying to climb the ranks. Statistically, this school's Hero class mostly produces Emergency Services and Law Enforcement. It's not the place to go if you were a past-his-peak Pro-Hero looking to make a difference to the next generation. But there was one applicant with the relevant experience in the world of Superheroism; Ms. Akane Mako. AKA Madame Obsidian, the famous thief and Supervillain who's reign of infamy lasted close to a year before she got caught. Fresh out of prison, and looking to go straight, she was given the role. She will be your Hero Class teacher this year.

You're a first year at Matsubara High. Whether you're here because you didn't quite have the power or skill to make it elsewhere, or you had too much of a vigilante mindset and are looking for somewhere more relaxed . or you're just a local, this is your high school and you were curious, you are part of the Hero Class. If you have grand dreams of fame and acclaim, or you want to be the Number 1 Hero some day, you've started with the king of all disadvantages.

The School


Matsubara High is a large albeit regular high school that, on top of the Hero and Support classes, sports all of the regular classes you'd find in a Japanese high school. It has a wide range of extracurricular clubs set up and run by the students themselves. There is also a very large gymnasium that used to be a state-of-the-art training facility and town simulation back when the school could afford to use it as such. They can no longer afford to rebuild fake buildings or create terrains, so it's just a large albeit bare training room and school gym. It is reinforced, which also makes it perfect for Tournaments.

Matsubara High keeps the tradition of yearly Tournaments, which are held in winter to distance them from other school's tournaments in the hopes that an agency might decide to visit, which is rare but does sometimes happen. The tournaments are open to all students, not just the Hero Class. However, as they're the ones who have had training, they're usually the ones who make up the bracket. There is usually one non-Hero class competitor at most.

As they can't afford simulations, and temping for Hero Agencies is rare. Situational training will sometimes be patrols in the real world, and instead of Temping, students would at second and third year, take a placement with the police or emergency services. First Years are prohibited from using their quirks to do Hero work without the presence of a Matsubara staff member. The punishment ranges from detention to expulsion to an actual arrest depending on the severity of the infraction.

There are no dorms. You must commute to the school from where you currently live, which is why most of the student body live nearby.

@Silver Carrot Here's my submission not on par with my usual quality but Kouji isn't meant to be a really complex character.

I edited some parts, but she's still the same character from before.

Okay, I discussed with my co-GM and two things to balance it:

1) The quirk should be touch-activated, not remote.
2) A stronger limit on how this quirk can be used against player characters. Something like "Can only affect one person at a time and cannot affect the same person again without a cooldown", for example.

Are we going to move onto the plot soon? I feel like I'm sitting on my hands because my character isn't in much of a position to interact with anyone because he doesn't want to piss of the teacher on the first day.

I think we just moved on. Everyone needs to formally introduce themselves, tell why they want to be a hero, and what they think about heroics. Presumably afterwards Silver will move us onward once more.

Alright that may have just been a mistake on my part for some reason I did not receive a normal mention instead just a 'there's been another post' so I've assumed no one talked to me.

I think the guild only allows a certain amount of people to be alerted when someone does multiple mentions. But I'll try and post soon.

Yep, afterwards, it's quirk show-off in the gym, and then free time for characters to talk to each other.

@Silver CarrotYeah can't exactly do much everyone else is in the middle of a collaboration of some sort or isn't in the cafeteria.

I mean, asking if people want to rp and arranging it isn't really collaboration. Putting out a post of your character alone and seeing who, if anyone, bites is old-school but it doesn't hurt to be a little more proactive.

I could have Nadeko talk to him now she's free if you'd like.

@Silver CarrotI'm currently sick I don't have the energy to arrange those big posts the others have been getting out. If anyone is free I don't mind posting smaller ones but with this cold I got the other day I'm not in a situation to do much more. If you want to use Nadeko to give kouji something to do you're free to do so.

Ok, but in future if you're ever wanting to get things moving, want to arrange a meeting between two characters, or even just wonder why people aren't replying to you, don't hesitate to use the OOC.

People who go completely silent aren't gonna get many replies if other users think they're left or aren't interested anymore.

I'll get up a Nadeko post now.
