Academy 003 is a mixture of school and superhuman setting, that while it uses its lore, it's its own thing. Academy 003 will be a departure from usual as we will be collabing out each scene [b][URL=https://discord.gg/cs4BNqY]it's own server[/URL][/b] and then posting it. It'll be a test that I've wanted to do for years now, but we're going to using the OOC thread as storage for sheets and announcements and the IC is gonna take place in the Discord.[sup][h3][color=2e2c2c][b]▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅ [right]▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅[/right][/b][/color][/h3][/sup][/row][row][cell] [center][youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBf7u56NJ6k[/youtube][hr][/center] [/cell][cell][indent]Basically, the setting is a world where people are enhanced by crystals that emit strange energy and have been granted superhuman abilities, being dubbed "Deltahumans." These Deltahumans have been exposed to the world at a very early age, and have been quite integrated into the minds of the world as their acts, whether good or bad, often pop up on the news. There are mixed thoughts on Deltahumans, some hate them, some love them, and others are on the fence. But, the problem is that, following an incident known only as of the Verthaven disaster, they are on the rise, and people are afraid. However, from the first sighting of Deltahumans, there was a government-funded program in place to help integrate youths into society, along with improving public opinion. Known as the Academy Program, there are four Academies across North America. [/indent][/cell][/row][/table] The story of this roleplay, as you most likely have already gathered, is Academy 003, and the Freshmen class which will be referred to as "Year 1." These students will go through many trials and tribulations as a whole, as they develop, and improve themselves as people. If Superpowers/Superheros/Whatever isn't your fancy, then I suggest just closing the tab and going about your day. If it is, I promise to provide an interesting experience. A deep and complex tale of students, with a very rich and well-developed lore. Above all else; this won't be a standard superhero romp, but a character-centric look at how Superpowers and whatnot would function in real life. No capes, no gimmicks. The RP will be character-driven, and somewhat sandbox-y. I will be providing a storyline, but I'll be giving people free rein on how their characters act within the storyline. The theme of this story is, essentially, Change. [h1][color=limegreen][b]RULES & NOTES[/b][/color][/h1][sup]_______________________________________________[/sup] [hider][table][row][/row][row][cell][b]1.[/b] First and foremost I reserve the right to reject anyone from the RP and boot them out at any time. I hate to do this and I will try to avoid it but sometimes some people are too disruptive to the RP or aren't a good fit and have to be removed. [b]2.[/b] Please try to be respectful towards all other players at all times. [b]3.[/b] Please do not post a "wip" sheet. I find it very irritating when someone posts an incomplete character sheet. If you want me to read over what you have so far, just PM it to me. If you need a place to work on it just private message the sheet to yourself (or write it on one of many platforms). [b]4.[/b] You're allowed to have as many characters as you can handle... just don't go too crazy. I'd like to keep it about three characters max per person, but if you got a real good idea I'll allow more. [b]5.[/b] All I ask for is one post a week. If it's been a week since your last post, your character will be placed into the inactive section until they are written off (Either by death, expulsion or dropping out of the Academy). Once a character is inactive, however, they are officially an NPC and can be used freely by the GMs, or the players. [b]6.[/b] Character death is a real possibility. By submitting a character, you understand that they have to take responsibility for their actions. They will not be bailed out by me and may get injured or die. I won't jeopardize the story for one character. They can also be killed by other characters. I won't go out of my way to kill off any character - that I like - but I may injure them for the sake of the story.[/cell][cell] [b]7.[/b] The RP is gonna start on [b]September 2019[/b] (So no Metahuman 'rona). [b]8.[/b] You can either make a student, or a teacher - but, I want more students than teachers. [b]9.[/b] Now, time for the banned powers. The following powers are banned without negotiation: "Instant death" powers, Mind/Character control, Anything with "Omni-" attached to it, Reality Warping, Life-force absorption, Complete-Indestructibility/Absolute-Defense, "Bringing art to life," and Probability Manipulation. I will gladly tell you why they are banned if asked. [b]10.[/b] The following powers are restricted, but negotiable: Blood Manipulation, Light/Darkness Manipulation, Power Replication, Gravity Manipulation, Power Nullification, Suggestion, and Memory Manipulation. Message me for more details. [b]11.[/b] The lore is left a relatively blank slate so you have a bit of freedom to decide events/organizations that are relevant to your character and the Academy. [b]12.[/b] This is optional, but I can choose a power for your character. It'll be a fun little thing for both of us.[/cell][/row][/table][/hider][/quote]
