No harm in building enthusiasm and speculating characterization! I've liked every CS so far!
Alright, awesome! In that case, I imagine Peter, Shiori, and Shun getting along really nicely with everyone, but especially each other. They seem to be the cheery crew :)
I'd discuss potential interactions but I have no idea whether I'll be in the RP!
Yeah, I feel the same way. Would be a shame to get all these exciting relationship ideas going only to find out you or someone else hasn't been accepted D:
I like @DangDude's character, Chihiro. She's kind of like the opposite of my character both personality and backstory-wise, which always makes for interesting stories :D
You know, instead of a well-known and established guild, I always liked the idea of perhaps actually starting out as the exact opposite. A relatively new guild that has perhaps only been around for a few months. I think it'd be nice to actually start out as a bit of an underdog. But eh, just my two cents.
I agree, I think playing the story of low power characters in a small, family-like underdog guild as they become more powerful would be really cool. Characters with weaker or unstable abilities who have to use their brains and not just their power always make for more interesting stories.
Oh, and I also would be interested in joining a Fairy Tail RP :)
This Friday? I don't know, is that too soon for everyone? I don't want to rush people's character sheets.
I'd suggest not waiting even that long. I've experienced more RPs than I would have liked that died before really starting because the actual in-character stuff didn't start until everyone's hype died down.
Completely up to you, of course, but I don't want that to happen to anyone. It's pretty depressing :(
Alright! I'm glad to see the interest! It's not my rp, but I've joined games that never got off the ground cause of no interest! So let's go! I'm excited to see other player's characters!

Peter is short and scrawny, standing exactly five feet tall. Other than that, he's more on the average side of american teen, though possibly abnormal for someone going to a Japanese academy. Despite his carefree nature, he prefers to take care of himself. He keeps his clothes nice and clean, and his dirt-blonde hair combed...ish. He easily succumbs to cold weather, so he bundles himself up in warm clothing whenever he goes out during the winter. Comfortable hoody? Check. Winter pants? Check. Stompy boots? Check. Woolen scarf? Check. And most important of all of course, fluffy mittens? Oh, scrum, not check!

Peter's quirk, "Free Image", had split his visual and physical selfs into two entities. Peter himself is fully invisible, along with anything he wears or holds. Anything that would normally be seen is projected upon his visual self, who he named "Mirror". For example, if he were to pick up a pencil, though the pencil itself is fully functional and carried by Peter, it would be invisible. Mirror, however, would then have an incorpreal pencil. Mirror, though fully incorpreal, obeys the laws of physics just as Peter would. He cannot move through physical objects (he swims through water as normal, just does not displace the water), is affected by gravity, and cannot do any physical feats that Peter himself wouldn't be able to do. While Mirror can be pushed by people or objects, he does not put up any physical resistance against the force and is not felt.
Mirror, though Peter's visual image, is actually a seperate entity and somewhat sentient, though with the mental capacity of Peter if he weren't paying attention (such as while texting). While he cannot directly interact with physical objects, he can interact with the visual versions of whatever Peter is holding seperately from what Peter himself is doing. Along with his own consciousness, Mirror appears to be able to feel both visual and physical versions of objects, and will react as if hurt to something like a cut or burn.
Though seperate and with his own sentience, Peter can mentally give Mirror commands which he carries out in his own way. Mirror's energy level is directly related to how much energy Peter himself has, and nothing Mirror does tires himself or Peter out.

Peter has a passion for always learning new things, but only by doing things himself. He finds little interest in being taught. However, while curiosities of all kind capture him, he has an especial interest towards fuana, and has studied much about animals. If it weren't for his parents', and now the school's, rules against flooding the halls with all kinds of animals, he'd have his very own zoo. But as it is, all he has is an ant farm*, a couple goldfish*, a gerbil*, a hamster*, a mouse*, and a gazillion posters. Luckily, animals seem to like him just as much as he likes them.
Peter also hates doing things in normal or straightforward ways, much prefering to think up creative and clever solutions to simple problems, and even more creative and clever solutions to complicated problems. His out-of-the-box planning has often ended up putting him into many scrapes, but it has put him through many more enjoyable experiences, some of which even had a life lesson that he kind of maybe payed a little bit of attention to.
*Not sure what the schools rules actually are in relation to pets, will be fine with adjusting according to whatever rules there might be.

Peter does not have much interest in actually becoming a hero. However, his father (a great American superhero) had high expectations for Peter as his only child. Though his father wasn't as restrictive or stern as some, it was just an unargueable assumption in the family that Peter would follow in his father's footsteps in becoming a fighter of supervillains by participating in a highschool designed specifically for that. Eagle University of Young Heroes, situated right in their home town of Seattle, Washington. Yet, Peter much prefered socializing and enjoying himself. Fighting crime was not the way he wished to achieve glory, and the fact that his father would be sitting on their own front lawn, judging every move he made didn't help.
He knew there was no way out of heroism, but that didn't mean there was no way out from under his father's watchful eye. He researched and learned about an overseas school for heroes which accepted students from all over the world. While it seemed rather strict, Ishen Academy did have a very good reputation for training excellent heroes, and didn't specialize so heavily on crime fighting in comparison to EUYH. At least, not as far as he could tell. With how prestigious the Japanese school was, it wasn't too difficult for Peter to convince his father to allow him to enroll there. Oh, the great hero he would learn to be!
...Is what his father was thinking. All Peter could think of was what great people he was to meet, what great experiences were to be had! Who knew what lay awaiting!

It's been over a year since I last participated in a play-by-post RPG, but I've always loved playing them. My hope is to have a pretty easy but enjoyable character to play to dip my toes back into the storybook roleplaying scene. To enjoy writing a story along with others once again! I've been really enjoying My Hero Academia, so this looks like an excellent RP for that. I don't want to pressure myself too much with some deep backstory for my character to come from, or some great goal for them to achieve, both him and I are along for the ride. Character interaction and helping others with their goals. At least at the start; at some future point, once I've gotten back in the groove, it'd be great to have my character take the spotlight and have an important story arc. Maybe a switch from having little interest in becoming a hero, to a deep reason to be one...
Alright, here's my character! Been working on him for three hours ^^' Sorry if the quirk is a bit confusing, I wanted to go for a unique ability that goes all in on the quirkiness of the quirks.
Well anyways, off to bed! I'll see whatever feedback you have in the morning.
