Academy of Noble Arms - Reboot (With gratitude to TheHangedMan)

@Letter Bee while I have you, idk how to determine NA Rank nor Class Rank

@Trainerblue192

Noble Arm Ranks for PCs are E to B; No As.

Class Rank is by default 1000 or lower.

Thanks. Sorry, that's what I was asking about earlier when I asked about the CS

@Trainerblue192

Ah, I see now, and it's good.

@Trainerblue192, Not the template on the OOC OP, but it looks good anyway.

@Letter Bee
Can we expand on the CS if we want to? So long as we hit all the points that are on the one provided?

Also how early may someone display the ability of Noble Arms?

@Trainerblue192

Yes. And at birth, theoretically.

Academy of Noble Arms - Reboot (With gratitude to TheHangedMan)

Just double checking. Dinosaurs dont count as weapons before WW1 that can be Noble Arms right?

@Trainerblue192

They do not count.

Pablo Legazpi

Appearance:

Height: ~1.8 Meters. Weight: 55 kgs.

Name: Pablo Legazpi

Age: 16

Nationality: Filipino

Noble Arm Name & Appearance: Katotohanan Ng Mundo (Truth of the World)



Noble Arm Abilities:

The Light of Truth - By touching a target with any part of the sword, Pablo can reveal said target's 'truth'; this in essence means he can find out their life, their thoughts, and their secrets, without lies, self-delusions, and filters . When used upon a living person, they also see what is being revealed as well and know, instictively, that it's the truth. When used on an inanimate object, Pablo can find out events the object was involved in; useful when used against a murder weapon. This power can undo any form of mind control or mental effect, illusions that are not based on holograms, and mundane indoctrination and brainwashing techniques, as well as various forms of insanity that lead one to believe lies.

But the drawback of this power is twofold: One, Pablo also uses the power on himself every time he activates it, preventing him from lying to himself about his actions and their consequences. The other flaw is that whenever Pablo uses any of his other powers (see below) to fight, he cannot use the Light of Truth.

The Light of Primefire - Pablo can release waves of light that knock back or slightly singe Non-Noble Arms wielders, but burn Noble Arms wielders with fire that cannot be healed by Noble Arms - although Mundane Science isn't bound by that restriction.

Mana Shield - Pablo creates a shield of raw mystic force; a dome or circle two to four meters in height and length, that blocks or reduces the damage from a mundane or 'mystic' attack. Note that too much force would just shatter this barrier.

Eyes of Truth - Pablo focuses the Sword's power into his eyes, allowing him to 'read' the hidden powers of Noble Arms within sight range, even if they are invisible or otherwise concealed. Like the above two powers, this cannot be used alongside the Light of Truth, though in this case, it's only because the latter is redundant with the Eyes.

Personality: Pablo is a naturally reckless person who relies on his powers too often, but can take advice when needed. He also has a high opinion of himself and his intelligence, as well as a sense of self-loathing whenever this high opinion is proven to be wrong. Despite this, however, Pablo is a kind person, one who focuses on helping others as well as himself, and is aware of his flaws. He is someone who wants to have friends, and goes to great lengths to get people to like him and keep liking him.

*Likes: Sweets, Swordsmanship, History and Literature.

*Dislikes: Bullies, Spicy Food.

Fears: Showing his darker side to his peers.

Bio: Pablo's great-grandparents were migrant workers who came to the city of Manila in the Magsaysay Administration, looking for opportunity, and unlike many others, finding it. While said great-grandparents were menial workers, their children, Pablo's grandparents, were lowly clerks, while Pablo's mother became a lawyer and his father an Eskrima instructor. And so, Pablo grew into some wealth and affluence, despite his mother frequently taking on cases for free. Despite this, Pablo's life seemed normal, although he was more intelligent than his peers by a large margin, to the point where he took advanced classes. This made him feel isolated, and also the target of bullies. It became worse when he realized that he was bisexual early on.

He was afraid that if anyone found out, he would be expelled from his family and left out in the streets; he didn't want that. But at the same time, this was what he was born with, and he couldn't change it - he tried. The only people he can confide his secrets to, as well as doubts, were people on the Internet. Yes, foolish idea, but as long as he didn't reveal his name and personal details, he would be all right, right? Wrong, because eventually, one of those people, a woman, found out his personal details and tried to blackmail him for money.

Pablo had to make a choice; risk his secret coming out, or steal from what was not his? He chose the former, and he 'came out' to his mother that day. Surprisingly, his mother was understanding; not entirely approving, but not rejecting, either. And so they chose to confront the potential blackmailer together, Pablo's mother had a gun, just in case.

The blackmailer turned out to be one a former plaintiff that Pablo's mother had successfully prosecuted, and now sought to ruin the life of her family in response. She was also a Noble Arms master with the a Gauntlet that controlled darkness. Caught in a trap, Pablo and his mother risked death...until Pablo manifested his own Noble Arm, the Noble Arm of Truth. Taken by surprise, the blackmailer was defeated through a combination of quick moves and sucker punches by Pablo. And after that, the boy transferred to Trinindad Academy, rejecting offers from more reputable institutions because Trinidad Academy was both in his country and closer to home.

Besides, he wanted to see if the New Director can pull off what he promised...

*Current Goal: See if the New Director can make Trinidad Academy a place for heroes.

Student Rank: 1000

*Optional

@Letter Bee How are Noble Arms tested? Is there a way to evaulate them without active testing? I can't imagine it's a good idea to field test a weapon that may or may not cause explosions of unknown sizes.

Also, I apologize in advance if I flood you with questions. I tend to get carried away sometimes.

@Achronum

Either through the use of other Noble Arms or putting the user through a lie detector test; Users instinctively know the true strength of their NAs'. Noble Arms can also be analyzed with heat and energy-detecting equipment.

Edit: It is okay.

Re: Zero: The High Council

Ashton Andrews

Ashton snorted at being called a pervert, although his family on Earth was well-off. Choosing to clean the room for a while, until Fritzi had gotten herself into a false sense of security, the boy weighed his options. The shed and continuing to clean this room were the most boring options, and although Ashton considered himself even-tempered and mature for his age, he still didn't want to be bored. And, despite his defense of Fritzi one reset ago, a defense that still stood, the boy was suspicious now. He didn't believe Fritzi was evil, but he was also sure that the 'Demihuman Liberation Front' weren't truly evil.

So he kept cleaning, using his new mastery of Yang Magic to improve his speed and focus, until the section of the room facing the stairs was clear of dust and cobwebs. Then, with a grin, Ashton decided on a novel use of his Yang Magic: lighten his steps by focusing it on his feet.

"Jiwald," he whispered, focusing on his feet and legs, pumping the energy of his magic into them. The feeling of drain came as a surprise; it seemed that the boy had less energy to spend on spells than he thought. But there was no time; Ashton knew instinctively that the longer he lingered, the less likely it was that he might confirm (or disprove) his defense of Fritz.

So he climed up the stairs, trying to be as silent as possible. If Fritzi was truly alone, he planned to go back down. If she was not... He planned to listen in.

Flame Brooks

Flame chuckled at Aer's skepticism, "Skepticism is a good option; I pick it a lot myself."

Good, another interview. He can do this, and just repeat what he had said earlier...
