My Hero Academia: Another Story

Ryan "Sharkman" Jacobs

Ryan had surfaced in one of the submerged levels of the prison, dripping wet and wearing nothing but a pair of black trunks and a metal mask. Behind him, he'd been dragging a large plastic garbage bag. He'd elected to swim there, towing his things behind him, triple-wrapped in black trash bags, and immediately started to familiarize himself with the seemingly abandoned facility. He closed his eyes, and focused on the signals being picked by his ampullae of Lorenzini, that tiny network of electricity-sensitive nodes throughout his body. He was pleased to see that the electricity in the building was online, and from that, he could sense the general layout of the prison.

He'd stopped to find the showers, clean himself up, dry off and change, so he was the last to stroll in, stepping over the remains of the potted plant. Like the others, the redhead was rocking the edgelord lock: He had on a black, high-collared jacket, worn closed. A black bandana covered his face, with a shark-jaw print. And on his back was his massive pair of clippers. Paying no mind to Jack's display with the chainsaw and unworried by Sana's pyromania, he casually pulled up a seat, at the same time grabbing his file.

"At least I know you're not gonna be scared away by the murders." He said, his voice distorted by the metal mask he wore under the bandana. Though they couldn't see his face, his dark eyes were squinting slightly in a smile. "Everyone else here has a rap sheet, right?" He asked the others in the room, leafing through the file like one would go through a family photo album.

My Hero Academia: Another Story

Shark Man

Appearance:

On the Reg

Name: Ryan Jacobs (Assumed name. He's wanted for murder under his real name.)

Age: 19

Gender: Male

Hero/Villain Name: Sharkman

Quirk Name: Shark

Quirk Type: Mutation

Quirk Description: Sharkman does whatever a shark can. His mutation has left him looking relatively human. His most striking feature is his mouthful of pearly white, sharklike teeth. Say ah! These have tremendous bite force, though he doesn't use that on enemies much because that would be a little gross. They come out easily if he's punched, but they grow back quickly too. He also has gills on the sides of his neck that allow him to breathe underwater, though he has to keep swimming to make water move through them or else he'll suffocate.

Like a shark, Ryan has a keen sense of smell. In particular, he can smell blood from up to 3 blocks away, and differentiate between blood coming from individuals. The smell of blood in fact gets him high: While normally an affable and even gentle person, once he starts smelling blood he becomes overcome with the desire to spill more. Sometimes he gets a little carried away and accidentally nibbles on people he's fighting. Usually he can snap himself out of it once he's done fighting.

Sharks also have the best electreception of any animal. He can sense living things by the electrical fields they create. He can sense them out to 200 feet, though he has to be actually paying attention to spot it.
Finally, Ryan's strength is amplified. Right now, he's on part with an athletic human, but with training could improve himself to superhuman levels. This also makes him an extremely good swimmer.

Inventory & Possessions:

Villain Costume: Ryan is a huge weeb so he based it off of anime. He has this big black jacket with a high collar. It's not just there to make him look like an edgelord: It's actually got pockets he puts metal plates in. That high collar is a neck protector. His jeans also are similarly armored. Underneath that, he wears a protective vest. His bandana conceals a metal face mask which distorts his voice, and he can soak it in a small bottle of vinegar he keeps to protect himself from tear gas and other inhalants. Finally, he keeps a pair of goggles on hand, though he doesn't wear them very often. They're UV protected, so make it so flashbangs don't affect him. They also stop him from getting blood in his eyes.

First Aid Kit: A small first aid kit. Usually keeps it on his bike. Contains a roll of bandages, stitches, antiseptic, painkillers, and some styptic gel.

Pantera: Ryan's bike. He had the engine modified to produce far higher horsepower than normal, and it is capable of towing a truck behind it.

Scissors: A giant pair of scissors that Ryan bought off of Etsy. They are made from titanium. Each blade weighs 3 pounds, with the entire apparatus weighing 6 pounds. The right blade extends from a chain, which itself extends from a gauntlet he wears on a right hand. He can wield them in two "forms." The first is Scissors form. This is when the blades are attached like in an intact pair of scissors. The left blade has edges on both sides, so he can still cut someone with it even when he as them closed, using it similar to a claymore. If he gets something in them and closes the handles, he can generate massive cutting power, easily capable of bisecting a person. Getting a moving target in between them is unwieldy, but if he can, it's an extremely dangerous attack.

The second form is Pair form. He splits the two blades, holding one in each hand. This mode is faster than Scissors form, and he has the benefit of a blade in each hand.

The chain can extend up to 25 feet. The gauntlet has a mechanism for reeling it back in, though he does need to have it wound up for that and it can't pull a person in or anything. The right blade has a hook-like protrusion on the blunt side, and Ryan is quite adept at throwing it so that it hooks into things it punctures and then reeling it in. He can also swing the blade from the chain as a flail-like weapon, using it to trap and bind opponents.

Sample Post: Ryan held his suitcase to his chest, gazing out at the golden gate bridge. It was a rainy day as he took a cab into San Francisco. He'd done some pretty terrible things back home. This group called the League of Villains had offered to give him a new name and a new direction in life. He'd always wanted to be a hero, but it was becoming increasingly clear that the nature of his quirk would simply not allow for that. He'd always sort of knew. He'd spent his youth in and out of juvie.

"Hey, thanks." Ryan said, reaching into his wallet and taking out cab fare, plus a tip. He got out of the backseat, taking a suitcase with his belongings and a giant pair of scissors strapped to it. He had a bit of a walk to the base, but didn't bother taking out an umbrella, or even seem to mind. He was actually in a very good mood. He'd always felt out of place in society. Now, he finally had some hope of finding others like him, who desired to carve out a place of their own.

@Spike
I think your new idea is better now. He's ok with me. Just remember that swimming with pockets full of metal isn't likely the best of ideas if he ever tries to go in the water wearing that costume.

@KoL

Ah, thank you. Yeah the jacket gets in the way of his gills anyways.

@Spike

Scissors are fine by me as long as you remember he'll be in water thanks to his Quirk. Wait for @SimpleWriter's verdict.

@TheWindel

Mmm that's part of why I like having them able to split. Mmm the big form is probably too heavy but I think he could bring one of the halves with him if he really needed too. Mmm dunno how much swimming he'll do, I've been told Bay Area water is kinda gross but that's mostly hearsay.

@Spike Accepted, too. Watch the rust. :3

@SimpleWriter

Mmm you're the best~ Mmm I'll write a starter.

@Spike I'll say the same thing as Windel about efforts. x) Quality over Quantity, as I said in the first OOC post, so I don't look at size much. Anyway, moving on.

Super Strength was a problem for me, but you seem to have edited it and now it's minor. So it's okay.

As for the weapon, I personally don't need to know where it came from or how he got it to eventually accept it, but it's true that it seems a bit random with he general theme. If he have a love-hate relationship with his Shark theme, you might want to write that down somewhere on his sheet. P.S; For a Shark, I would have imagined a Hammer as Weapon. Or a Saw. Or a Chainsaw. Because Hammerheads and Sawsharks. i know you wanted the Scissor theme, and I don't mind that you keep it if you can find a way to make the Scissors more relevant to the character.

@SimpleWriter

Ahh so can I keep it? A chainsaw weapon might be cool but it's really loud and honestly the scissors seem really rad.

My Hero Academia: Another Story

@Spike

Quirk-wise, he's fine. Super strength for a shark is iffy but seeing as you don't go in-depth with it, I suppose it's fine. As for his weapon, I'm willing to accept it if you can explain to me what it has to do with his shark theme. Finally, the sample post is fine enough. I know the quality of writing you can and have produced so I'll only say this now; put as much effort as you can when concerning IC posts.

@TheWindel

Ah thank you. Mmm the strength is mostly a growth option. For now he's capable of more than the average person but he's not going to the Olympics or anything. My thinking is most of his training is martial arts stuff. If he started body building with like protein and weights he could eventually get to a notch or two above what is normally possible for humans, but it would take at least a year or two.

Mmm does as for the weapon need to have something to do with his shark thing? Ryan probably isn't the type to go around biting people most of the time so I figured he'd need a weapon. I don't think that Ryan is really the type to adhere to a theme, he's got a love-hate relationship with his sharky side. He needed a weapon and he started looking for them online and saw this Etsy store with a lot of crazy weapons and that's what he spent his tax return on. OOC I just really like the imagery of a dude with a giant pair of scissors that he can kinda transform. Mmm if it's really necessary I dunno maybe I could give him a chainsaw or make the blades serrated or something? That has "teeth." Or like I dunno he could maybe paint some sharks on it?

@Spike

Before you finish your CS be aware that that Quirk isn't a quirk at all. People can't simply create objects out of thin air, even Momo whose sole ability was creating stuff had to "pay" something (body fat) for her creations.

Furthermore, a quirk should have one function and one function only. Whether or not you can use it for other (related) gimmicks, depends on each character's ability. I can accept he dividing his weapons (after an explanation on how he creates them in the first place), but not the power nullification part. It makes so sense at all that a creation quirk would be able to do that.

@KoL

Fair enough. Mm I'll make it so that he can like unfold them from maybe his arm then. I can ditch the nullification too, sure.
