Hello all! Welcome to the thread! This is what I've decided for our overall story, please speak up and let me know your thoughts and ideas. I'll be editing in the future to include information about the Academy grounds and buildings itself in the future, taking a leaf out of BB's book, but this will be more than enough to start with. Those interested in joining the story can post character sheets below and I will accept those who meet all requirements and there is still room. Our story is going to begin with each of our characters receiving an invitation to compete in an elite competition against other trainers who have shown talent. Those who run the academy and are looking for those with the potential to replace them as the protectors of the region will be watching. These battles will be against NPC's. You can either control them yourself or ask someone else to control the NPC. Our characters will be winning these first battles, so be sure to showcase their strengths and skills, give the leaders a reason to invite them to the academy to learn to be even better. What region would you guys like to have the academy in? What kind of set up for dorm rooms most appeal to you guys? At one point, each of us can rotate in a visiting elite NPC to come to the academy to teach our characters. These would be recognizable heroes from the anime or games, those who have lots of skills.
