Kochou

Name: Tamaki Kochou

Gender: Male

Age: 18

Year Level:3rd

Rank: S

Faction/Club: Student Council (Student Relations)

Personality: Kochou is probably the most approachable member of the student council. A peacemaker by nature, Kochou's lackadaisical personality and casual openness surprise those who would assume, based on his power and position, that he would be more manipulative and scheming. In truth, Kochou cares more about seeing his fellow students succeed than gaining power and plans to become a teacher once he has graduated.

As a result of all this, Kochou is a bit conflict averse, prefering to talk things out rather than fight, though he is more than capable of defending his position if need be.

Power: Pheromones - Kochou can generate and spread potent pheromones from the antenae on his head at will. These pheromones actually have a shockingly wide variety of uses, from controling others emotions, to causing sickness and unconsciousness to even vibrant multisensory hallucinations.

Kochou makes a point of using the emotion controlling function sparingly out of respect for his fellow students free will.

Bio: Kochou's parents were both respected surgeons in a well to do area and, as such, he grew up fairly privileged. His parents treated him with care and, overall, he had a happy childhood.

All the pampering and coddling, however, led to him becoming egotistical and careless in the use of his powers. At a young age, he would manipulate his peers into doing his bidding. Outraged, the children and their parents demanded that Kochou be removed from public school.

So, Kochou grew up secluded from the rest of the world, as a series of tutors instructed him in all different kinds of academia. In time, he came to understand how wrong what he had done as a young child was and sought to prove that his powers could have other, more constructive and benign applications.

To this end, Kochou enrolled in Tatakai Academy, only to find that his powers were uniquely suited to ending a fight quickly. That, mixed with a quite good academic record, led to Kochou gaining status quickly, until he eventually reached the rank of Student Relations Specialist.

Since we seem to have some space, I hope nobody minds if I throw a second hat in the ring.

Cool, thanks!

Akari

Name: Akari Funagami

Gender: Female

Age: 16

Year Level: 1st

Rank: C

Faction/Club: None for now

Personality: Akari tries to put forward the appearance of being cool and aloof, but isn't particularly good at keeping up the illusion. In truth, she is excitable and enthusiastic, with a zest for life and a habit of taking massive risks in the name of fun. Her loud, boistrous nature makes her naturally magnetic, but makes it hard for her to navigate more sensitive topics.

Despite her fathers protests, Akari is still an avid gambler, though truth be told, she enjoys games of all kinds.

Power: Chance Manipulation - Akari can remotely control the result of any chance based event she can see. For instance, she can determine what side a coin lands on or what the top card of a deck will be. The restrictions are that she cannot manipulate events that seem random but are actually controlled (like a game of darts, which is based on skill) and she cannot influence events she sees via electronics (So she can't, for instance, rig the lottery by watching the winning number be drawn on tv).

Bio: Akari was raised by her father, a divorced convenience store owner named Shiro Funagami. Shiro was kind to a fault and very patient, but not overly bright and had no idea how to raise a little girl. He and Akari lived rather simply, but the two did their best to keep eachother in good spirits.

Eventually, Shiro's store started turning less and less of a profit. The two began living in abject squalor. In order to ease the burden on her father, Akari began to search for away to supplement his income. This is when she stumbled into the seedy world of gambling. Intimidated at first, Akari soon found that she was actually a gifted gambler. Almost supernaturally gifted.

Eventually, every reputable casino for miles had thrown her out and Shiro, not wishing to see his daughter fall any further into the disreputable part of society and suggested that she attend Tatakai Academy to develope her powers and find a safer, more reliable use for them.

This looks really rad. I'll have a CS by the end of the night.

Against the Fangs of God

In a place of such grim wonders as the Verimos Cathedral, one would be hard pressed to notice any one peculiarity amongst so many. Least of all, the faint glint of tarnished metal only barely shining out from beneath the labyrinth of shadows that twisted and writhed between the imposing statues that lined the edifice. One would have to be of uncommon perceptiveness to notice the frantic click of gears, spinning in a frenzy to propel one another to their destination.

Indeed, the little mechanical creature had found little of interest to show its master, his face stern, gazing idly through the tight-fitting lense perched in front of his left eye. Perhaps it was out of sheer paranoia that the tiny automaton was sent skuttling out into the far reaches of the sanctum. More likely, the motive was idle curiosity; a gnawing desire to increase familiarity with this most wholly unfamiliar of places.

The master of the machine stood quiet and distant, focused on the unknowable thoughts churning like tempestuous currents in his head. His stark gray hair and pristine white coat made him stand out against the tenebrous chamber in which he stood, but, much as he stuck out, he seemed more distracted than uncomfortable.

The single eye of his that was visible lit up with excitement at the revelation of the woman in the mirror. In a heart beat, eight glittering legs of brass-colored alloy came dashing across the cathedral to the strange artifact. The clicking and clacking of the spider's movement was accompanied with the sound of a voice, at once enthusiastic and monotone, straining to be heard without shouting.

"What a fascinating object." the man said. "Care to share how it works?"

By the way, I gotta' say, @T Risket, I had my doubts at first, but Growler is utterly loveable. Keep up the great work.

I don't think I'll post again until everyone's made their introductory post. Just so everyone's on the same page as we kick off.

@Loki Odinson

Likewise.

Well, it's kinda' hard to be a mummy from 1967.
