OVERVIEW
Welcome to Academy 003, an RP that takes place within my own superhuman universe known as Black Fall. 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 it's own server 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.

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.
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.

....................................................................
In the summer of 1963, it happened, the Delta-Storm, an event where tens of thousands of crystals rained from the sky and landed on the earth. These weren't ordinary crystals (Named Delta-Crystals), however, as they radiated with strange otherworldly energy (Nicknamed Delta-Point Energy) that granted strange and abilities to those who were exposed to it. These can range from teleportation to super-strength, to manipulating the elements and even replicating the abilities of others, the possibilities are endless. These superhuman entities are called Deltahumans (The older term was Metahumans, and sometimes they are referred to as Deltas/Metas). There are five different types of crystal/delta-point energy (Red, Blue, Yellow, Green, & White), each granting a different type of ability but there's also the chance that someone may get two different types of energy (Known as being Chromatic, which is rare). However, powers are completely random within those categories and it's possible for someone to get a completely useless power. Only a select few are compatible with the energy (stated to be about 15% of all humanity) but once they are exposed (from the crystals or contact with other Deltahumans) it'll rapidly spread to the rest of their body.

This is known as an Exposure-Event and once exposed a person either develop their abilities Naturally (over time ability will manifest) or Under-High-Stress (in high-stress situations ability develop faster). The energy within a Deltahuman is invisible to all except special equipment and when they use their ability on the environment they project a bit of it (only for it to fade away once they've ended their ability). Every person's ability is different and unique to them, however, some abilities are Hereditary. These are few and in between but are more likely to occur if the mother is a Deltahuman and Deltahuman child usually takes after the mother power-wise. There's an extremely high chance if the parent was compatible with the energy the child will also be compatible with the energy.

Deltahumans are naturally drawn to one another through something known as the Black-Fall Effect. It's a subconscious draw to one another that's so subtle that nobody can notice - but even the shyest introvert will be drawn to other Deltahumans. If a Deltahuman touches a Delta-Crystal, they'll receive a massive power boost if the crystal corresponds with their type. For example, a Red Deltahuman will get boosted from a red crystal, but if they touch a yellow then it'll only be slight. There are a few drawbacks, however, as powers are linked to the body and mind, and overuse can result in exhaustion and physical pain. A Deltahuman pushing themselves too far will result in Ashing, which is best described as the body self-destructing. They'll fade away into ash and the survival rate is also extremely low - around 4%. There's also another side effect that makes it risky for Deltahumans to use Delta-Crystals.

Throughout the years there have been technology developed around Deltahumans, most famously the Power Nullification Collars - which disable a Deltahuman's power long as they are wearing it. Though, there's a new nefarious chemical that has developed in recent years - Power Serums. The REAPER organization is the prime distributor of these serums, these glowing vials of liquid can grant a variety of different powers once consumed. They can usually be bought by shady means, however, the REAPER organization sometimes distributes them for free for purposes unknown (either to drum up chaos, or test out a new serum). Most of the Delta-crystals have been collected by the world's governments however a few exist out there in the wild (with some theorizing that new crystals could be growing). While Deltahumans are a recent development out in the world, some suspect that Deltahumans could have appeared far earlier. It's only a suspicion, right?


.................................................................
There's a rare but extremely frightening transformation that anybody can go through if they touch a crystal. It is known as Chimerization, and any organic being in contact with a Delta-crystal is capable of the process. It's where an organism merges with a Delta-crystal and mutates into a powerful and freakish creature that is incredibly dangerous. There's no telling what form a being will take when they undergo Chimerization and some Chimeras end up completely eldritch. They will always have a body covered in Delta-crystals that'll continue to grow, however, Chimeras usually expire after a short period of time. What's dangerous about Chimeras is that they gain an enhanced, jail-broken, superpower that is insanely dangerous - but they're also dangerous for the Chimera. All Chimeras are mindless, vicious, beasts that aggressively hunt down other Delta-Crystals, which they seem to have a mental link to. Deltahumans are also far more likely of becoming a Chimera, which is why it's incredibly dangerous to use Delta-Crystals to enhance their powers. What's strange is that during natural disasters or other such events increase the amount of Chimerization increases.

LOCATION: Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
HEADMASTER: Adam Blackmore.
VICEHEADMASTER: Veronica Davis.
STUDENT NUMBER: 2,539
STAFF NUMBER: 590
SIZE: 650 acres.


The Academy Program is a four-year program in which students train under the Academy's staff. After graduating from the Academy, students leave with a "Certificate" in which they are deemed fully trained by the Academy staff. Along with leaving the academy with a greater deal of control over their abilities, this can be helpful as they transfer into FAMA or similar programs. It takes the place of a school, offering the students a solid and sound education, and the Academies offer top of the line educational Programs. Some are more like training facilities that have less of a focus on education, and others are the inverse.
....
Academy 003 is located on the beach of Myrtle City, technically within the city bounds even though the Academy is situated on the very edge of the city grounds. The first thing people see about the Academy is the tall brick wall, and the large metal gates - and of course the sign saying Academy 003. These walls are to keep intruders, and unwanted guests, from getting into the confines of the Academy.

....Academy 003's campus is a beautiful sight and is a collection of different buildings, rather than one large building. Each of these buildings serves a different purpose, and are all within walking distance of each other. Connected by stone pathways that lead to different ends of the school. Because of the Academy's reputation, it has some of the best funding out of the entire Academy Program. Academy 003 is equipped with state-of-the-art facilities, and technology, as it is regarded as the second-best Academy in the program (Second to Academy 002, of course). It's one of the largest Academies, that are attended by thousands of different people each year, and has one of the best staff. Thus, it has one of the strictest admissions. Academy 003 is guarded and monitored by a small FAMA office, and the FAMA team that backs them up.

Despite the Academy having strict admissions, the older students are almost constantly cycled out for fresh students. Academy 003 mainly aims for students that have done something to stand out from the others, have potential in their eyes, or come from a troubled background. However, Academy 003 is known for using a "lottery" assisted by the FAMA program where a young Deltahuman is selected for Academy 003. It's difficult for someone to apply to the Academy for these reasons, but not impossible by any definition.

The students, in particular, are divided up into different classes (First Year, Second Year, Third Year, and Fourth Year). As the Academy Program is a four-year program, these classes are essentially a way to separate students by year. Year 1 being first-year students, and year 4 being last year students. The different classes have little to no interaction with each other, as each of the classes is expected to be on different levels than each other. At the end of each semester, Year 4 graduates, and the preceding classes move up to the next letter. Fresh students are constantly brought in, and if there is a shortage, applications are opened.

Academy 003 is known for its "Academy Games" events that are done once a year. It's a massive event in which the students from all classes have an opportunity to showcase their skills and talents in various competitions decided by the staff. The Academy Games is usually done towards the end of the semester to showcase how the students have advanced power-wise. Each of the students are separated by which class they are in, and none of them compete against each other. It starts with a preliminary elimination round and those who survive to move up to the main events. Whoever wins the Academy Games (I.E reaches the top three) receives a huge great boost in grading, and will be in the Entrance Hall's Hall of Fame.

@LostButterfly92 She seems okay for the most part, I kinda thought her backstory was a little barebone but it's okay for the most part. My first thing is that you can maybe expand a bit upon how she responded to getting her powers and stuff (if that makes sense). My other thing is that a Delta-crystal can *not* give you chromatic powers, you would have to be exposed to two different forms of energy. Not that it matters because she's more or less a Red anyhow, I don't really want people to be Chromatic unless they absolutely have to.

Now, about her powers, I kinda feel like you didn't paint the full picture of what exactly she can do. Like the way you described it it's like you already assume people know how the ability works. I want clarity on character's abilities and how they work, so we don't have any issues down the line (Look at some of the accepted characters so you see what I mean). You also vaguely mention that she can create minions and that feels like it deserves a section of it'sown. Maybe provide some more examples how she can practically use her ability.

Onto the plant sense; while plants do have a sensory ability they probably wouldn't be able to give her any useful or decipherable information. Now, what if instead, she can sense the aura of plants and anything that touches them? And it's still red, don't ask questions. Her weaknesses are kinda weak, too, not being able to regenerate is just... being human. Her power requiring concentration is more of a limit imo. Again, I don't really have a clear idea of how strong she is. Still a better power than death manipulation. lol

Again, she's not rejected I just want her power section reworked. She seems cool so far.

@LostButterfly92 I like some of the changes you made but I still have a vague idea of what her chlorokinesis can do. Maybe provide some more examples of what she can do with it practically?
