[addamas]

So here's my character, hope it meets the requirements ^^
@Jabber

My Character

Name:

Nori Azami

Gender:

Female

Age:

16

Personality:

If you catch her on a normal day, she comes off as calm and collected, usually paired with a soft smile and relaxed attitude. She doesn’t hide her emotions and always lets them flow yet rarely let’s anyone upset her, which extends to dire situations as well.

She is not afraid to show her opinion, nor getting into a fight, even though she might lose.
The reason for that is because she is very competitive. Not backing off whenever she gets challenged and occasionally challenging others is a regular occurrence for her because she sees them as games to win and her emotions easily take over from there.

Her social life is not very special; she might be known but not exactly popular. She is liked by most but not loved. She does have friends that she cares for and that care for her, not a lot and not too few. Her family is also close to her heart, and them and Nori’s friends usually don’t mind her competitive attitude whenever it emerges.

Nori enjoys school because it challenges her every day and because of it, she excels at it. her mind is sharp and only gets cloudy when winning a challenge appears out of reach in which case she becomes fierce and reckless (which happens more than she’d like to admit).

Lastly, her hobbies are nonexistent because she does whatever challenges her the most at that time, only moving on when she feels like she has won.

Backstory:

Nori has always lived with her parents as a single child; she has had an ordinary life right up till she found out about U.A. high school. As soon as she heard it was the most prestigious school around, where only the best of the best got in, she knew where she wanted to go. It was the one thing that consistently drove her forward, not ever slowing down till she passed middle school.

But then her application got rejected; her parents went behind her back and told the school to deny the application because they didn’t want her to become a hero. Nori never found out, but instead of finding a normal school for a normal job, like her parents wanted her to, she did nothing, her motivation was gone and she didn’t know what to do.
And that is when she received the invitation.

Quirk:

Gust: Nori’s quirk allows her to blow Wind out of her pores, and the pores can also suck wind in, amplifying the blown out air.
she can control which pores shoot out air and which suck it in with full control, although the maximum output right now can only break branches and push someone over with considerable force(beaufort scale 8(it's like "fuz roh dah" from skyrim in its second stage))

Skills:

Ego: Nori is very confident in her abilities, and that boost automatically gives her an edge.

Inquisitor: Her sharp mind is quite deductive, and it makes her a versatile opponent. Being able to read a battlefield and the person on the opposite end is another edge for Nori.

Jock: Because she has taken on many different kinds of sports, she is in quite a good shape, nothing Olympic, but better than the average person.

Sample Post:

It was a few days after she had been rejected by U.A.
The denial still hurt and Nori had been very emotionally unstable ever since.
She wanted to get in and that meant being better, but no matter where she searched, she couldn’t find a way to improve herself other than going to U.A. It was infuriating to know that a whole year would pass before she could apply again, a whole year without a game to win, without a challenge to surpass. It left a sore taste in her mouth every day she woke up.

Her parents had been worried about her a lot, offering many different schools for her to apply to, yet none of them appealed to her, none of them could match the school that even All Might went to. But then, after weeks of chaos and madness, an e-mail arrived.

The contents of the mail turned Nori upside down; it was like they knew what had happened to her, like it was somehow fate. Nori had been chosen to attend some sort of school for those who want a chance to compete with the best. After sitting in her chair reading the mail three times in a row, she suddenly jumped up in the air squeaking like a squirrel. Her heart lit up like a Christmas tree and for the rest of the day, a constant smile was plastered to her face. Yet when she told her parents, they were not happy at all, they tried to, but Nori could see the fear behind their eyes. Maybe they didn’t trust the mail, maybe they were afraid to send Nori away, and it didn’t matter.
Nori was going, no matter whom or what was gonna try to stop her, she was going.
So that night, she packed whatever she could carry, wrote a note for her parents, and left.

Others:

None

Update is up. I'm sorry if I didn't wait for any unfinished interactions to take place; if you really want to continue them, you could still include them in your next post before reacting to everything that had happened. If you guys have any questions, feel free to ask. If any of your characters want to have some dialogue with Boro or even just a few questions, you can post your questions here in the OOC, on Discord, or via PM. I'll answer them out of the IC just to avoid having to wait for each other to reply to posts.

So far, the first round of posting gave me a lot to work with for the near future.

Included in the second post of the thread a timeline of some sorts of the event that had taken place in the RP. I apologize for not actually stating the current setting of the RP as compared to that of the original series. To phrase it as briefly as I can, the RP will be an Alternate Universe based of the original series. However, it wouldn't be unlikely that certain canon information - be it individuals, events, quirks, and the like - will be used in the RP. If anyone has questions, feel free to ask.

[Jin Of Mana]

Just wishing to see if I would be welcome to join. Currently debating character ideas, while reading the thread! After confirmation, and a little work, I'll pitch some characters to you via PM!!!

[Jabber]

@Jin Of Mana You're definitely welcome to join.

If you have any questions, you can bring them up here, via PM, or in discord. Even if I'm not on, you could probably get some opinions from the others. They're pretty helpful too.

Progress so far xD

Ruby Lake

Outfit

_{Ruby clothes are usually elegant and black with frills and white quillings, thus resembling elegant gothic lolita fashion. She often wears a red corset beneath with black shoes and red socks.}

---

[NAME]

Rubina Westerville: "Ruby Lake"

[GENDER]

Female

[AGE]

16

[PERSONALITY]

Self reliant, rebellious and somewhat naughty would probably be some words that you could use to describe her. She's quite fiery, very active, and not really shy as she trained that away ages ago. She can be rather tsudere to people she likes. She's hard working when motivated, and tends to goof off or get bored when she's not.

Ruby is a girl who seeks some excitement and enlightenment in her life as she comes from a strict and sheltered life. Curious about the outside world and the experiences she could gain from not being constantly molded into perfection by various people in her life. She's not unfriendly as she has been taught to be rather well behaved towards others and will try to behave around new people she meets to make a good impression. However, there are times when she needs to just try new things, gain new experiences and just see things for herself.

One could say she's on a path to discovering who she truly is. Is she really the girl her parents want her to be? Or is she someone completely different? Only time will reveal the person she truly is or will grow into.

[BACKSTORY]

The daughter of a quite wealthy family, Rubina or 'Ruby' as she prefer being called have been lived a strict and controlled life. While her parents nearly never come home, they still forced their wills of what they liked Ruby to become upon her against her will. Wanting her to become the heir of their legacy they had quite strict ideals of what skills was required achieve that goal. While not being able to force their ideals upon her in person while being away, they kept contact with their servants who in turn carrie out their will. Most of her lifem Ruby have been raised, lectured and taught by servants and private tutors.

extension

However, Ruby grew to dislike most of them as they seemed to have had a square view on what they thought would make a 'perfect girl'. Constant nagging and attempted corrections from her servants in response to her behavior made her grow increasingly resistant as she grew older and smarter. As she started seeing through their behavior, she grew rebellious, doing whatever she liked instead while letting others take responsibility for her actions. During most of her life, there was only one person she really trusted and could relate too, a butler named Jack Lake. He was nice to her and seemed to get her. He earned her trust over the years from her childhood through kindness and compassion. Ruby liked him a lot and continued to do so even as she grew older. He became somewhat of a father figure for her as she didn't see her real father very often and had grown to dislike him.

Being a lone child was quite tough, she had to shoulder whatever her parents tried to put on her, from learning how to act like a proper young lady to satisfy her mothers ideals. To how to run a company, from the ideals of her father. One moment she could be learning how to dance waltz and other dances, another she could be studying economics. It was tiresome, and the only way Ruby really got to vent was during her free time when she took to unleash pent up emotions often through her quirk and physical training. Interestingly enough, one of the few ways Jack helped her was by helping her train in Dragon-Fu, a somewhat combined material arts practice with dragon like abilities added in. He also helped her stretch, and actually helped her practice dancing in a fun way by teaching her that it could be used both in combat and interactions as it was important to be able to move around securely while also having attention on opponents and respond to their moves with her own.

Childhood:

Her young life was pretty much what one would expect, from an early age she was raised mostly by the servants and they became somewhat more of a family to her than what her real one ever was. As a child she hadn't started to dislike anyone just yet, but she had gotten some bad experiences from interacting with her parents.

The older she got, the less people she started to trust, mostly because there was too many folks to listen too and too few she could really relate with and feel like she belonged. They treated her as a little princess, and while they spoiled her, they also required a lot from her in return. Ruby learned that her parents thought they could just buy her affection if needed, but the older she got, the more she realized that they didn't realize how smart she was becoming.

The biggest moment in her life was probably when she started developing her quirk. She started growing horns and wings, suddenly turning more dragon like. It was difficult at first getting used to it, and she often accidentally sat fire to something which she ended up getting scolded for. As she grew, so did her appetite. She turned into somewhat of a glutton, wanting food very often, so much her servants thought she was going to get fat. Since it was 'unladylike' to eat a lot, they tried to restrict her.

It was another factor that made her stop liking most of the people around her. She started sneaking into the kitchen to grab whatever she could find. The chef however caught her, and wanted to teach her a lesson by putting out red hot chili peppers on the table, something to make her regret eating it. However, it turned out that it backfired as Ruby loved the taste of them; having a breath that literally could set things on fire, spicy things were nothing but treats and candy to her.

Teenage years:

Growing into a teenager puberty would hit at some point. The spur of growth and development would be a time where she would wreck down all the foundations of her past life and test all limits. It was a time of big change, one that would make her into the girl she is today. From learning more advanced things to turning from a rather 'obedient' girl to a rebellious teenager.

Learning how to fight, how to lead, how to dance, and how to do difficult calculations. She grew more and more self reliant, trusting only Jack whom she shared just about all her teenage problems with. From the really embarrassing stuff to fun and games. She was just glad to have him around.

[QUIRK]

Little Dragon:
Little Dragon is a quirk that grants Ruby characteristics of a dragon. Namely a dragon's horns, tail, wings, claws, and ability to breath fire.

Mostly shown by the illustration above, Several parts of her body are diffusely covered in a layer of tough scales. These protect her from most physical hazards and provide resistance to fire. The claws Ruby possesses are very sharp, allowing her to cut into things if she want too. Her wings are slightly smaller than that of a fully grown dragon, but these still allow her to fly or glide over short distances and heights.

While labeled as a strong quirk by some, it is not without its weaknesses. The traits that Ruby received are more complementary and do not provide any boost in her physical capabilities. Although not that obvious, Ruby doesn't posses more strength or endurance than a normal girl her age. And despite the resilience provided by her scales, not all parts of her body are protected by it, giving her several vulnerable areas that could be used against her. Lastly, sustained flight or a prolonged, steady stream of fire aren't things Ruby is capable off. Well, at least for now.

[SKILLS]

Dragon-Fu: Basically a mixed material art formed with dragon parts added. She was taught this mostly from Jack Lake who knew a lot about martial arts, through a lot of training, and by seeking out the knowledge of how to advance it.

Gluttony of Spices Ruby is very found of anything spicy; from red hot chili peppers to whatever else is considered as 'super hot'. Being able to literally breathe fire, she is resistant to heat and almost complete immune to spicy food. She does however really like the taste of it.

Dancing: Not a skill she's technically found off, but she can dance really well because she was forced to take learn it, the only one that could make her like doing it was Jack when he said she could use it to learn how to fight better becuase it gave mobility skills and the ability to read others.

[SAMPLE POST]

Sample

It all really started on a rainy Monday, with black and gray filling the sky. Rain was beating towards the roof like small nails falling from above and Ruby was extra sulky because she couldn't go outside. While rain was not dangerous to her she din't like the cold rain, nor was she technically allowed too go outside either, but there was few things except for chains that could stop her if she really wanted too. It hadn't been a bad day, but Ruby was in a foul mood anyway. She was just getting tired of being locked up, locked in and forced to become a princess. Most of her life she had never really left the estate, only gone outside to play in the yard as a child or go for walks in the sun. Of course, there was those occasional moments when she got into a car to get driven to an airport or wherever her parents sent her.

Between starring out car windows, airplane windows, reading or watching television about it, Ruby had hardly ever seen nature in its full beauty. It was what made her feel trapped inside, A feeling fueled quite a bit by herself too since she probably could have run away if she wanted too, but there was a wide unknown world outside.

Tapping on her computer that she at least was allowed to have, Ruby checked the various pages and news that she used too. An article about heroism and heroes that popped up on the front page drew her attention as usual; various heroes performing large deeds so that people like herself could live a normal boring life. Ruby was jealous of them, they could be out there in the heat of the moment, fight crime and whatever. And here she sat, bored to death by the weather, and freaking starving since dinner hadn't been served yet.

A few more clicks got her to a forum which she used to rant, she found herself often writing about her daily troubles without revealing who she was or what they technically was about. Using her username "Red_Lake". She had just wrote a short rant "Ugh... I wish I could be a Hero, and not need to sit through one other of Bob's lectures about social classes of old... who the Fluff cares if there was peasants and nobility in the past?... its not that much different today... what I wouldn't give to go camping in the mountains, get a soda, and just live a life outside four walls for once... sorry for ranting as usual" she wrote, and then laid back on her bed to stare at the roof.

Her eyes trailed around as she laid there on her back with wings spread to the side, her hair was somewhat getting in the way of her face as she had laid down suddenly, but she merely let a the back of her right hand rest on her forehead before slowly sliding down on the pillow behind, her left was on her belly. The idle sound of her tail scraping against the bed filled her ears, yet she just closed her eyes for a moment to rest. Suddenly however she stirred from the sound of a message popping up on her computer screen. For a second she groaned that she forgotten to turn the sound off again, but she lazily shifted to the side and looked to the screen.

"There's a someone that can show and teach you how to be a hero"-it was from an unknown sender.

The message in the screen was burning into Ruby's eyes, at first she thought nothing off it. Was it a joke or just someone trying to really make her feel better? No matter she decided to not leave it unanswered and replied "Like how? Not like you just go and become a hero or something. Besides, four walls you know. " she replied.

It was silent for a while.

She then received another message here's a -Link- if you don't believe me"-the same person replied

Ruby looked to the message and idly stroked the link with her cursor to read the destination while pondering over if she should click it or not. She didn't want to end up somewhere weird or get viruses or something, after all she didn't need the extra trouble or end up loosing her computer. Figuring she might as well, she clicked the link and ended up with information about Tumble. She spent a good while there, reading up, checking sources and when she was done, she was not dissatisfied.

A few days more passed and Ruby eventually got fed up with everything. Eventually she couldn't stand being locked up anymore. Thus when the weather cleared she headed outside before taking to the sky. She let the winds guide her as she went to seek out Tumble, wherever she may be.

[OTHERS]

As for what she aspires for, Ruby dreams of making a name for herself in the world rather than following the strict path carved by her parents or ride on any wave they have created. It was because of this she made somewhat of an alias for herself. Ruby Lake, she called herself, because Ruby being a nickname she preferred over 'Young lady' which she had heard too many times. And the last name Lake, mostly because she often wish that Jack Lake would have been her father instead so she wouldn't have to go through all the bull crap just to live a good life.
