OVERVIEW
This is a spin on the ever so popular anime/manga that centers around two main protagonists, which will be my character and, hopefully, yours. This will be set in the MHA world setting and will begin on season one/chapter one. The only difference is, all the canon characters of 1A are not in this universe. However, all other canon characters can be in the plot as well as original characters. This allows our characters to more so dictate the plot and make our own path within the universe, while also having the same supporting cast around them to have a good experience. This also opens up creative freedom for what their classmates will be as well, but the main focus will be our two characters.
As the tags suggest, there will be more mature themes and romance in this roleplay. I write at a high-casual level and expect similar from my partner.
Note: You do not have to have an overwhelming knowledge of this manga/anime to participate effectively, but some general knowledge of the setting, lore, and world of MHA will go a long way.
PLOT
In this world, 80% of the population has quirks, or powers, and it has become a norm in this modern day society. These quirks range in power, what kind they are, how they affect you, and some even mutate the way you look. These quirks are used for good and evil, and naturally these two forces are ever waging war in Japan and the world. While some turn to villainy, others strive to become heroes, and only the best make it into hero agencies and are sworn protectors of the people. Many of these heroes go to hero academies to learn how to be a hero, and some of the best heroes have come from the renowned hero academy known as U.A. This is where our characters will start their journey, as they set off to pass the entrance exam and make it into the #1 ranked hero academy in Japan.
YOUR CHARACTER
You will have creative liberty over your character, but here are things that I require of your character to fit the narrative:
-Your character is the top ranked prospect of your class, a true prodigy that is considered a guarantee and has been offered acceptance to U.A. through recommendation. Your character has chosen to instead participate in the entrance exam and prove their worth like the others, whether your character truly feels this way or simply wants to show off, whatever the motive is.
-Since you are the top prodigy, your power will be pretty strong but also will have room to grow, expand, evolve, and become even better. Nothing too crazy though, it wouldn't be interesting if they were a demigod. The choice of your power, however, is up to you.
-Your character will be of high school age to fit the plot. I have a preference for this character to be female, but it's not a requirement. Other than those two things, you have the freedom of what your character looks like, acts like, origin and heritage, etc. Your parents, however, are (or were) very successful and powerful heroes to fit the plot.
Other than that you are free to create your character how you wish, within reason.
MY CHARACTER
I have a good idea of what I want my character to be, very certain specifics may be adjusted depending on my partner. But, here is the definite and what you need to know:
My character is an orphan, their birth a bit of a mystery and a case long since lost and forgotten. However, they were never adopted and simply lived in the orphanage while going to school. They were at the top of their class and did the written version of the entrance exam perfectly. They were invited to do the practical exam, however, nobody knows what their quirk is. They have the medical predisposition that indicates that they do, indeed, have a quirk, but nobody has actually seen them use it. They have simply relied on their wit and physical ability to get by. Some speculate reasons as to why they don't use their quirk; That they are pretentious, that their quirk is useless, that they really don't have a quirk and are just hiding it. They've often been bullied because of this, and this gets much worse when they get pushed to their limits in the entrance exam.
CONCLUSION
Well that's about it. Other than what I have said above, I really want to work with you to create the rest of the plot and create a story that we can both roleplay and have fun in. Even if you aren't the biggest MHA fan, or if you are, I want to have a great writing experience with you. If you have any interest in doing this roleplay or have any questions feel free to message me below or in my private messages. I know what I want and I'm pretty set on it, but I am always happy to work with you and compromise.
