Counter Coup

Fractured [ Action | Adventure | Airships ]

@Sylph Since questions are being asked, I might as well join in. I was just wondering, is there any known scholarly institutions for those who choose to study non-magical arts? Maybe a guild for alchemy, herbalism, or anything medicinal? Or am I free to just contribute and make my own? Thanks!

Mei's Quirk is derived from the abilities of both her parents. Passed on to her by her father are Mei's arms and legs, that are somewhat disproportionate in size to the rest of her body as they are obviously larger, bulkier, and covered in thick layers of white fur. Her unique physique grants her above average strength and endurance along with ape-like dexterity. Although not apparent, her respiratory muscles and lungs are quite developed, explaining her ability to let out loud yells and howls.

Given her appearance, her childhood wasn't that forgiving; sticks and stones probably couldn't have broken her bones, but words definitely hurt her. To make matters worst, she apparently obtained her mother's quirk as well, leading to the incident that caused her self-imposed social seclusion. Mei's inner temperature is so cold that her breath can freeze the air around her. Depending on how long, fast, and hard she blows, she can create a gentle cool breeze or a gust of freezing wind that can ice everything over.

Some of Mei's more interesting characteristics is that her hair is extremely soft and easy to comb while her breath always smells like fresh mint.

𝔹𝕒𝕔𝕜𝕤𝕥𝕠𝕣𝕪:

When Mei was born, the most notable of her features aside from her earsplitting cry, was her robust body coupled with large arms and legs covered in a thick coat of white fur; she took after her father. However, at the age of five, an incident in the form of a massive sneeze covered half her classroom in a layer of ice. Unfortunately, two students suffered severe cases of hypothermia, but both survived. The event left Mei traumatized, forcing her to withdraw from school and continuing her education at home. The incident made her more self-aware of her abilities, giving her the motivation to improve and control her quirks.

Her family background in heroics came in the form of her father, who's charisma and ability to encourage was none existent. Luckily, Mei was able to draw inspiration from somewhere else; the pros mentioned on the news. Her admiration for the heroes she grew to idolize gave her the courage to leave her comfort zone and apply to U.A High.

𝕊𝕦𝕡𝕡𝕠𝕣𝕥𝕚𝕟𝕘 ℂ𝕙𝕒𝕣𝕒𝕔𝕥𝕖𝕣𝕤:

Umaro Naguchi; Umaro (Father)
A furry, ape-like, behemoth of a man, standing at a whopping 10 feet. He was a former criminal who turned hero after his reformation in prison. He garnered a reputation for his physical capabilities and talents in cases relating to urban rescue around the frigid, mountainous regions of Hokkaido. He met his wife during a rescue mission after an avalanche toppled the research facility she was stationed in.

Syukuro "Suki" Manabe; Flurry (Mother)
A known meteorologist and climatologist who pioneered the use of quirks to simulate global climate change and natural climate variations. Prior to her current profession, she worked as sidekick to various heroes. Her ability to breath out incredibly frigid blasts of air lead to her exceptional contribution in criminal suppression, detainment and cases of arson. She was rescued by the infamous Umaro during the collapse of the Hokkaido Institute of Climatology; he later became her husband.

@Jacobite lol you do have a point.

Anyway, just wanted to flesh out my character concept and get some comments to make sure I'm not doing anything that wrong. I'm going for a middle-aged physician/scholar who focuses on medicinal arts who's regretful of the career path he had went with. Unfortunately, wealth and health didn't go hand in hand. To make up for lost time, he wants to travel on the North Wind to search for materials and ingredients he could use to create novel medicinal products. And maybe, if it exists, the legendary Panacea. He plans to sell everything though.

Boku no Hero Academia

@olcharlieboi I was thinking that her quirk was a coalition of two compatible quirks instead of just being two different quirks. Anyway, do I have to mention it in the CS? The term just doesn't sound that nice. I think they called it Hybrid or Composite Quirks in the manga, but still doesn't have a nice ring to it. Could I forego that since I already mentioned in the CS that Mei's quirk is a combination of her parents'? It'll force people to read my entire CS and just not her quirk.

Aside from humans, are there any other known races? Or at least are there any we could choose from?

Boku no Hero Academia

@NightmareInd Honestly, you let out more force when you sneeze as compared to blowing, but changed it anyway to "massive sneeze covered half her classroom in a layer of ice". Better? You could just assume that it was a thin layer of ice and the only reason hypothermia was an issue was because they were extremely young (preschool? kindergarten?), so they're more vulnerable to rapid changes in temp.

@olcharlieboi Her quirk is a combination of her parent's quirk. Her physique is mainly from her father (he's a 10 foot tall sasquatch) while her cold internal temperature and ability to blow that out stems from her mother's quirk (I guess frost breath?).

Interested as well.

Boku no Hero Academia

Only thing missing is the Hero Outfit, which I have no idea on!

No More Heroes - Inspired by Boku no Hero Academia

Welcome to the world of NO MORE HEROES!

As you may already know, this RP was mainly inspired by Boku No Hero Academia. However, the premise that the plot will be based on will differ quite a bit. Slightly distancing myself from the shonen-like aspect of the series, my goal is to incorporate more serious themes while maintaining a certain degree of quirkiness within the story that we'll be playing out.

Basically, the RP will be taking place around several decades after All Might's death. Do note that I'm not going to be that particular, at least for now, with the events that took place prior to the start of the RP. However, I'll try to answer as much questions as I can and explain whatever inquiries you guys have since this thread will basically function as an interest thread and a place were commonly asked questions are gonna pop up before we actually make an OOC thread.

Hopefully, we get enough interest in this since I'm all hyped up by the anime's new season! Currently doing a lot of brainstorming and research, so expect some updates from time to time.

Introduction

It all began in China, in Qingqing City. There was news that a baby that gave off light was born. Ever since then, superpowers were discovered in various places, and time passed without the cause being identified. The world had become a superhuman society, and about majority its population possessed some kind of special trait. In such a world swirling with chaos, the profession that everyone once dreamed about and admired, came into the limelight.

Heroes from all over had suddenly emerged, purging the world of crime and injustice, ushering it into an era of peace. Unfortunately, sooner or later, it eventually had to end; lawfulness and order could only last for so long. For several decades, Toshinori Yagi - more commonly known as All Might - was recognized by all as being "The Symbol of Peace". It came to no surprise that upon his death, the pillar that held and supported both heroes and the society, had crumbled. Although many tried to take his place and attempted to bear the responsibilities that he once did, none came close to succeeding.

With the threat of All Might no longer being an issue, new waves of outlaws and villains ravaged the country of Japan like never before. Frightened with the changes in time, eventually, a mutual agreement among heroes and the government was established. A nation-wide initiative was made to unify all hero-related academies, universities, and agencies, into a single organization referred to as the Bureau of Counter Crime (BBC).

The current trend of villainy, crazed by greed, aggression, and conquest, has made the days of heroes and vigilantes non-existent. Now under a single banner, these super-powered individuals are tasked with the sole responsibility of protecting the public and restoring peace in Japan through any means necessary.

Premise

Now 30 years into the future, you find yourself within the ranks of BBC, an uprising organization that has only existed for just over a decade. Members of the BBC range from former pro-heroes, ex-vigilantes, reformed criminals, government officials, and other individuals from all walks of life who have banded together to achieve one common goal; to prevent Japan from plunging into complete chaos. Your role in this story is to play as a freshly enlisted recruit who will eventually rise through the ranks of the organization. Hopefully, you would be able to contribute to the restoration of peace throughout Japan or at least make a name for yourself in the process.

Character Sheet

For uniformity-sake, make use of the format I've given down below. But if you think you can improve the CS format, go for it; just don't stray to far from it. Nothing makes you want to read more than character sheets that are pleasing to the eye.

Hider

Name/Alias: Birth name or whatever you want others to call you along with your alias.
Age: Choose between the ages of 15-18.
Gender: One or the other, right?

Appearance: Since my imagination sucks, I'd prefer pretty images please.
Height/Weight: Makes visualization easier for everyone.

History: Doesn't have to be that long; two paragraphs would probably suffice. Just mention the pertinent stuff such as motivation and any important events that helped mold you into what you are now.

Quirk: I'll be modifying and altering whatever you guys give me, as needed. Just a precaution to avoid overpowered abilities. I'm sure you guys understand.

Talents/Skills: Aside from your quirks, most have other capabilities. What are yours? You can give me three. They can range anywhere from swordsmanship to weaving; just make sure it aligns with your backstory.

Inventory: Significant equipment on you; no need to state mementos or fancy knickknacks.
