I'm fine with the fight taking place as well. I was just letting Tendo post before I do. :3

How To Be A Hero - A My Hero Academy RP

Hello everyone! :D

Sorry for taking so long to get a post up, but I was pretty busy last week. I'll be able to post more frequently now that things have died down some on my end though. I just wanted to say that I'm really looking forward to roleplaying with you all!

How To Be A Hero - A My Hero Academy RP

As the sleek black car rolled to a stop at the majestic front gates of Kosei Academy, Tatsu opened her door and hopped down to the pavement below, unable to keep the grin off her face as the wind blew her orange hair about wildly. The day for her to start really learning about how to use her abilities was finally here! If the long car ride hadn’t left her legs feeling so stiff, she probably would have already bolted through the entryway. Instead, she took a few moments to stretch after getting out of the car, the complaints of her tiny body overpowering her impatience to explore what the academy had to offer. Which was probably for the best, as it provided the chauffeur with enough time to remind her that she needed to attend the orientation assembly before she would be free to do whatever she wanted.

With a sigh of mild disappointment that she wouldn’t be able to get started exploring right away, Tatsu thanked the man and made her way through the front gates and over to the arrangement of chairs where the other students were gathering. Though Tatsu would have liked to get a seat on the end of a row, the crowd had other ideas, unwittingly pushing the small girl into a seat behind a very tall girl with dark hair that was tied up in a rather messy bun. This meant, of course, that Tatsu wouldn’t be able to see anything as the assembly progressed. To be fair, however, it wasn’t as if she was going to be able to pay close attention to the assembly anyway. She was far too excited for that.

The assembly began shortly after Tatsu was seated. All in all, it was fairly standard for a beginning of the year assembly. There was the typical welcome to the students, followed by a list of fairly typical rules that the administration felt the students should know right away. Well, typical apart from the restriction that they weren’t to go too far from the academy without a chaperone and the explanation of a ranking system. While Tatsu didn’t really care about some arbitrary method of ranking students, she couldn’t help but notice that several of the other students around her perked up upon hearing the details. Maybe that’s why it was implemented?

Fortunately, the assembly didn’t go on for too much longer. After the vice principal finished explaining the procedures at the Academy, the principal stepped up to the podium and gave his spiel, encouraging the students to do their best and enjoy their first day. With that, the assembly ended and the students began to disperse.

Unsure of where exactly to start her exploration, Tatsu decided to follow a decently sized group of students who seemed to know where they were going. The group seemed to consist of some interesting-looking individuals, including the tall girl that Tatsu had been sitting behind during the assembly. They seemed to be heading towards a very large building with a roof that looked bluish-green to Tatsu’s eyes, which meant that it was either green or blue. From the snippets of conversation among the group that she overheard, they were heading to the training facility, which meant that was probably what the humongous building was.

The prospect of being able to use her abilities without fear of damaging something or hurting someone was an exciting one to Tatsu. While she was still excited to explore the academy grounds, Tatsu felt that that probably wouldn’t take the whole afternoon. Besides, she was here to learn how to control her abilities better anyway, so it made sense to start at the training facility and spend some time getting used to the facilities here. Plus, she might even be able to meet some people, which would make exploring the grounds later more enjoyable. And so, Tatsu continued to follow the group as they walked towards the training facility, appreciating the architecture of the buildings and the beauty of the trees that she passed.

Before too long, however, the trees and buildings gave way to the outdoor facilities around the training center, which were… impressive to say the least. Tatsu could really only blink in astonishment at just how much they had available for the students’ use. From the numerous obstacle courses to the fields that were obviously set up for specific sports and/or practicing one’s abilities, it seemed that they had everything. Even though Tatsu couldn’t really participate in sports or other largely physical tasks due to her diminutive size, she found herself grinning as she walked behind the group. If they had all of this for the outdoor facilities, what did that say about the rest of the facilities on the school grounds? Hopefully they would prove to be at least as impressive, if not moreso.

A few moments later, Tatsu followed the group through the main doors of the training center, shivering slightly as she was blasted by the cool air. Seeing that the group she had been following had stopped to discuss something amongst themselves, Tatsu felt that she should take the opportunity to introduce herself and see if they would let her tag along. And so, she walked over to the group and spoke up. ”Excuse me,” she said, looking up at the other students. ”My name is Tatsuko Kanashiro. I got here a little later than most I think, so I wasn’t really able to meet any new people. Would you guys mind if I tagged along with you?”

Tatsuko Kanashiro

[Appearance]

_{Height: 4’0” (1.22 m)
Weight: 58 lbs (26.31 kg)}

Name: Kanashiro, Tatsuko (Tatsu)
Gender: Female
Age: 14

Personality:

Tatsu is a fairly cheerful, energetic individual who tries to look on the bright side and avoid taking anything too seriously. Her confidence in herself and her upbeat, easy-going attitude make it so that she usually finds it pretty easy to make friends and/or meet new people. Unfortunately, Tatsu tends to be a rather reserved individual, so it can be hard for her friends to get to know her well. She just doesn’t really like talking about herself at all, though she’s usually willing to listen to others.

Tatsu is also a very spontaneous individual, as she rarely plans ahead or thinks things through before making a decision. This means that it can be kind of hard for her friends to keep up with her, as it’s not uncommon for her to suddenly make a lot of progress on a project of hers or pick up a new hobby. Perhaps somewhat surprisingly, Tatsu tends to be a logically minded individual, and she often has a hard time understanding the emotions of others. This lack of empathy, of course, often leads to Tatsu coming across as insensitive, even though there’s rarely any actual malice in her actions.

Though Tatsu is usually content to just go with the flow, she can be incredibly stubborn if she feels that she’s being criticized or restricted in some way. As such, she is rather prone to breaking rules that she feels are pointless and ignoring advice, even if it comes from people who are close to her. Because of these habits, she tends to be labelled as a troublemaker by authority figures, though it’s not like she particularly wants to cause trouble.

Background:

Tatsu was born to Iruto and Amaya Kanashiro in Kitakyushu, Japan. Shortly after she was born, it became apparent that she wasn’t growing as quickly as she should have been. After running a few tests, her family’s doctor concluded that she had a growth hormone deficiency and that she was allergic to the treatments. This meant that she would always be significantly smaller than her peers and that she would be lucky to end up being much taller than four feet.

Knowing just how cruel kids could be to those that were different, and fearing that their daughter might end up being bullied in school, Tatsu’s parents, though occasionally a little too overprotective for her tastes, tried their hardest to encourage their daughter to pursue her interests and talents. As such, when Tatsu’s quirk manifested itself around the age of four, her parents were incredibly supportive. They never tried to stop her from just casually using her ability, and instead aimed to teach her to avoid using it irresponsibly.

Likewise, when she showed an interest in learning how to work with wood and metal like her father, a carpenter by trade, he allowed her to help him out in his workshop while teaching her about the tools and techniques that he used in his craft. Once her father felt that she was capable enough, he allowed her to work on her own projects, under his supervision of course. It was this freedom to pursue what she found interesting that led to Tatsu’s love of trying new things, especially ones that involve working with her hands.

When Tatsu decided that she wanted to apply to Kosei Academy because she felt that it would be a good idea to learn how to better control her abilities and that participating in heroics sounded like fun, her parents were supportive as well. And so, with their encouragement, Tatsu eventually found herself on her way to attend Kosei Academy.

Quirk: Mind over Matter

Tatsu’s quirk enables her to move objects with her mind. In order to manipulate an object, Tatsu needs to be able to either see it or touch it. This condition really only applies when she begins manipulating an object, however, as she’s essentially touching the object psychically once it’s wrapped in telekinetic energy.

It’s estimated that the maximum amount of weight that she can lift at once is around 500 lbs, though she’s currently only able to lift around 100 lbs due to her inexperience. The size of the object(s) also limit how fast she can move them. The tiers are broken down roughly as follows:

• If they’re close to the maximum weight she can lift, she’ll only be able to move them slowly.
• If they’re about half the maximum weight she can lift, she’ll be able to move them at about a walking pace, or a slight jog if she pushes herself.
• Objects that are about a fifth of the maximum weight she can lift can be thrown with some speed, but it’s like throwing a beach ball for her.
• Objects that are about a twentieth of the maximum weight she can lift can be thrown with as much speed as a professional pitcher’s fastball.

Tatsu also finds it incredibly difficult to use telekinesis on people (so long as they’re alive anyway). This means that the most she could manage would be slowing down a punch or a kick, though it would require a large amount of energy. The only exception to this rule is her own body. As such, she’s able to lift herself in a makeshift sort of flight or use telekinesis to add force to a punch or kick. At the moment, however, she is incapable of making herself fly. The most she can do is slow down how fast she's falling, which results in a sort of gliding ability. It's important to note that she is currently able to use telekinesis to boost the speed and strength of her movements, however.

Though it kind of goes without saying, using her abilities fatigues Tatsu both mentally and physically. When lifting the maximum amount of weight that she can, she’s only able to last for around 5 to 10 minutes before she drops from exhaustion. On the other hand, she could lift really light objects and hold them for several hours before she really begins to feel the fatigue.

Talents and Skills:

• Good with her hands (DIY projects, metal/wood working, electronics, etc.)
• Rollerskating
• Not sure where else to put this, but Tatsu is blue-green color blind (tritanopia). This means that she often mixes up the colors blue and green, as well as yellow and purple.

@Scio Well, I'm interested. :D Would it be okay if my character's quirk was the ability to manipulate light? I just want to check before I start working on it.

@MarsAdept I'm very sorry, but I'm going to have to withdraw from this, as I've gotten substantially busier over the past several weeks. I'm sorry for not saying anything sooner, but I was hoping things would ease up.

@MarsAdept The picture is fixed. Sorry about that, it's been a while since I used a picture.

@Hylozoist Thanks for the troubleshooting help. :) I would have been able to figure it out, but it might have taken a while.
