Ask to Join Karma High (REBOOT)- Romantic Superpower High School RP (Open to new characters!)

[Cryronn the Mudkip]

Hey there y’all, welcome back~!

They call me a bit of a classic- hey y’all, I’m Cryronn, otherwise known as Grant. Mudkip, your Sleep Paralysis Demon, or Creecher. I’ve been on Pokecharms for upwards of 6-7, more like 6, years by now- but that’s a bit of an overstatement, cuz I die sometimes and that's sad. Regardless I know people hate exposition so I'll get everything annoying out of the way so you can make your 16 year old with the destructive power to level a city (because trust me, that's how these things end up going).

Hello there, new prospect! We hope this letter finds you in good spirits. Congratulations! You’ve finished the Orientation program for Karma High School- a famous academy based in Terassk, Southern California. Therefore- you’re prepared to come in to learn full time! Your dorm number and schedule will be given accordingly- so we hope to see all your faces on September 16th to start this year!
-Donna White, Principal​

Premise is pretty simple- romantic high school roleplay but everyone involved could nuke a city if they really tried their hardest! Still- beyond that- the rules are pretty simple.

1. Don’t be a douche for no reason.
2. All applicable Pokecharms Rules, obviously.
3. Try to be reasonable with your level of power- aka don’t be OP or I’ll bonk ya.
4. If you read the rules- hide Sleeping Dog somewhere in your bio!
5. Try to have some fun!!!
6. Oh and please read everything in this post- excluding my character’s bio, unless you wanna lmao.
7. I, and I'm sure I speak for many people here, do not tolerate any kind of bigotry for any reason. Any orientations or identifications are perfectly valid.

Now then- let’s get started with the character sheet-!

The House System-
Each character will be placed into a specific house- based on their “role”- or the form of specialization their power takes. This determines their electives and some other events, though not their dorming, and so doesn’t have an INCREDIBLY important impact on the story. The houses are listed below-

The Dorms:
Once your character has been accepted, you will be placed into a dorm- with your input taken as well.

Spoiler: Dorm Information

Each dorm consists of 4 rooms- a general living space, a bathroom, a bedroom and a communal kitchen. Rooms will have the standard bed, desk, wardrobe, window, etc. for each person. The bedroom is split into two sections by a curtain, each with its own set of two beds. Exact details and style can be customized by each person as they wish; Karma High has gone the extra mile to include special items/conveniences for each student's power or needs.

Upon entering, the door of every assigned room will have a sticker displaying the occupant's name on it so they know which room is theirs.

Let me grab My Bios, and Reggie for Head of Siren House.

 

[Cryronn the Mudkip]

MY OWN CHARACTERS- THEY ARE HEEEERE!

Name: Riley Deimi
Age: 16
Gender/Pronouns: Female (she/her)
Sexuality: Lesbian
Height: 5’6”
Appearance: Riley is a rather flashy young woman, with bright white hair and purple eyes. She cycles through different outfits daily, but can usually be seen in bright colors that compliment her hair. She also wears a pair of comfortable track shoes from her middle school days. She’s fair of skin, and has a resting grin on her face at all times. She’s Irish-American in descent.
Personality: As suggested by her appearance, Riley is a generally infectiously positive person- for good or for bad. She’s got high energy, a high-on-life mindset, and tends to not have much chill. She’s super weak to being flirted with though- so take that information and use it how you will. She can become serious when the situation necessitates- such as in dire straits or confiding in another. She can also be quite quiet and solemn… if the situation becomes too depressing for her joy to break through.
Backstory/History: Riley comes from a family with a long line of the same power- and so she was relatively young when her own awakened. Luckily, he family, with their generations of friends experience, helped her through it. She enrolled at Karma- given it was the highest quality school even close to her home.
Powers:

Breakthrough:
Riley can force herself through solid objects- usually walls- like they were made of a thick gelatin or honey. It looks in appearance and functionality similar to Ascend from Tears of the Kingdom- allowing her to pass though solid matter. She can most easily pass through wood, then stone and earth, and then metal- with her having a thickness limit of how much she can pass through for each material- depending on how much she’s trained it.

Rush Hour:
Her family-passed power, which allows her to overclock the speed of her body, with no harm caused to her body by the acceleration. She can cause her whole body to move very quickly, or just parts of it. It’s main downside is a high stamina toll, though otherwise it’s extremely effective, allowing for high leaps; fast running, and devastating punches. It's power is determined in gears, like a bike (or Luffy, lmao) from 1 to 5, with 1 being above average human speed while 5 is nearly as fast as a bolt of lightning, but each puts an increasing strain upon Riley's body.

Likes: Cats, potato chips, Dr.Pepper, training, going really fast
Dislikes: Waiting, standing still, assholes who stand still, turkey
Relationships: Two parents, a two younger brothers (Axel and Ferra- one of whom I might make when I don’t desperately need to sleep).
Other: I’m going to bed
House: Pegasus

------------------------------------------

Name: Nera Vasquez
Age: 16
Gender/Pronouns: Female (she/her)
Sexuality: Bisexual
Height: 5’2”
Appearance: Nera is a rather unassuming Hispanic girl, with shaggy brown hair, and pure red eyes. She has a slender build- and a more impressive body than it might seem- given she usually wears baggy clothes that hide her figure. She has a bit of a slouched posture as well, and a constant bored look on her face.
Personality: Nera likes to think of herself as rational, reasonable, and down to earth. She is definitely that- unfortunately that makes her a bit of a dick. She’s not directly antagonistic on purpose- she just is incredibly blunt, and doesn’t mince her words. Nera has a longing for meaningful human connection, like most, but doesn’t express it as outwardly as her pragmatism.
Backstory/History: Nera’s grandparents moved to New Mexico in 1978, and in due time, their family would establish themselves- having two children- one of which would eventually go on to give birth to Nera. Her birth was rather unconventional- as his eyes were incredibly baffling to the nurses- and the girl didn’t seem to cry.

Eventually, they discovered she’d been born with a power from birth. She and her older brother, Richard, lived a relatively calm life for about 10 years- until her brother decided to study abroad in Sweden. This distance from her brother- perhaps her best friend for a long time, left an impact on Nera, as she became more apathetic- though never truly lost her empathy. With some of the money sent back from her brother, and a fund Nera’s grandparents put together, Nera was able to go to her dream school- Karma High
Powers:

Mind Seer:
If Nera looks someone in the eyes, she can form a link and see into their surface thoughts- able to hear their internal dialogue and an active feed of their planned actions as they form. With more sustained eye contact, she can push through to access deeper thoughts- like memories and core aspects of the human in question- though Nera is very thoughtful about privacy, thankfully.

Active Copy:
A side-evolution to her main power she developed in her early teens- allowing her to copy a baseline, untrained version of a person’s powers after she uses her Mind Seer ability on them. The deeper her Mind Seer is on that person, the stronger and more refined their power becomes when she uses it. The window for her to use Active Copy remains even after the link is severed- though only for about 5 minutes.

NEM:
...

Likes: Cool rocks, fishing, the warmth, summer, baggy clothing, science videos
Dislikes: Emotional people, sour food, corn tortillas, people who think they’re smarter than her
Relationships: Richard (Older Brother), Sara (Mother), Drew (Father)
Other: Yes
House: Siren

------------------------------------------

Name: Tsugikuni Ginhoshi
Age: 15
Gender/Pronouns: Male (he/they)
Sexuality: Pansexual
Height: 5’9”
Appearance: Tsugikuni is a rather stylish Asian-American boy, with dark brown hair tied back into a ponytail, and stark, bright yellow eyes. He wears normally formal clothes, with a hint of Japanese flair (essentially, the patterns and designs of his clothing), and he always wears the same, dark brown belt, with a distinctive golden pen holster.
Personality: His expression is always quiet and thoughtful, and he doesn’t tend to interject himself into affairs unless it involves something about him- or a topic he has expertise in. He speaks with a small degree of refinement, and any slang is slow to be picked up for him. In combat, his expression is serene, but behind his eyes is a furious concentration of emotions. He’s very emotionally intelligent, and tends to be extremely empathetic.
Backstory/History: When the Ginhoshi family moved to Washington, they brought their ancient swordsmanship technique with them- which is learned by each person in the family through a short ritual shortly after birth under the light of the full moon. Tsugikuni was one such member of the family, one of three siblings born to Ayato and Makoto. From a young age, he was visibly talented in martial arts, and so was trained to be on the level of expert almost immediately- reaching such a title at the age of 13.

After this training, Tsugikuni desired a traditional schooling experience, and so after a conflict with his father, was admitted into Karma High on recommendation.
Powers:

Defensive Stance:
By planting his legs firmly and spreading his gait wide, he can assume a stance in which any attacks against him are weakened by a great degree, swings of blades leaving mere impact slices on his arms while taking the stance. He must not move his lower body while stanced- as only his upper body can move if he is to maintain it.

Tsukiberu Kuru:
Also called the Moon Veil Dance. This style of martial arts involves either a Nodachi or Naginata, in where the wielder uses momentum and defensive expertise to repel enemies. It has offensive potential- but it’s primarily a counterattack-focused fighting style. The main focus of the form is to mimic the shape of crescent moons with each slash of the weapon, arcing along gentle paths. It also has an ascended state called the Eventide Movement- which Tsugikuni only has limited access to as of the beginning of the story.

Likes: Painting, traditional watercolor art, training, learning, deep dish pizza, metallurgy
Dislikes: Crowds, loud music, rain, sand, pollen, gooey foods (like jello or honey)
Relationships: Ayato (Father), Makoti (Mother), Haruka and Thoma (Siblings, younger)
Other: His pen extends into either a nodachi or a naginata- magical in nature. It can either be a fully functional blade, or a strange blade that cute through the body, leaving no physical damage, only feeling like a real slash. He calls his weapon The Moongazer.
House: Gryphon

------------------------------------------

SURPRISE NEWCOMER?!-

Name: Maya Aofumi

The rest of her info is currently under construction, bear with me!

 

[MarcelGalliard790]

Spoiler: The Burning Skull

Name: Samael Nikolai Petrikov
Age: 15
Gender/Pronouns: Male (He/Him)
Sexuality: Hetero
Height: 5’11
Appearance (pictures can also be used):

His wings are made of bone and chains are wrapped around his main chest outfit.
Personality; Samael is cold and blunt. Like very blunt, he will be honest about different situations.
Backstory/History: (here is a quick and summarized version) His reaper origins had stemmed from his father, but after battling and loosing his left eye, he worked hard to master his power, going to an academy, making amends with the person who tore out his eye, bringing his brother essentially, ranking 2nd at the academy, helping a girl get out of a toxic relationship by beating up her manipulative lover, taking a job as a secret assassin, getting exposed for said job, and eventually being accepted into Karma High.

Powers:
Anima Sola’s Bind: Using chains, Samael can bind people or use them defensively for himself. He can heat them up using his

Mystical scythe arts: Using many different kinds of scythes. He can use special arts he learned to make new forms of his scythes. Double ended, sawblades, his favorite is with his obsidian scythes he carries around with him, releasing their true heat into magma scythes

Reaperium Ultima: Using his reaper origins, Samael unleashed his form. A burning skeleton with a floating skull. In this bud abilites are doubled, but he can easily burn himself out if he uses them too much


Likes: doing things his way, music, calm, and focusing on his tasks.
Dislikes: Noisy environments, nuisances, and toning himself back.
Relationships: The Crimson One, Prince Marcel (Brother in arms)
Other: He owned a Sleeping Dog named “Nikolaus”
House: Chimera

Spoiler: The Crimson One

Name: Marcel Lucius Cromwell
Age: 15
Gender/Pronouns: Male (He/Him)
Sexuality: Hetero
Height: 5’11
Appearance (pictures can also be used):

Personality; Marcel is a caring and honest person, always willing to help others in need. He put’s others before himself in many different cases.
Backstory/History: While being raised by the royal Cromwell family, Marcel still worked hard to receive his gifts of royalty, but he enjoyed it. He made some regrettable decisions with another red haired individual who spoke Russian (at a young age) but years later, they would mend, become band mates and brothers in arms.

Powers:
Brimsoul: Using a source of power called “Sulfurous Brimsoul” he can manipulate an energy into either lasts or anything if his needing, he does need to concentrate on specific things if they are very finite in detail

Binding Ashes: Using ashes he makes, he can blind, bind, or use them offensively in order to gain the upper hand, it does take a bit of time for the ashes to be created and start up.

Zalthereon’s prowl: Unlueshing his true power, Marcel unlocks a Demonistic form, pitch black with piercing crimson eyes, but the unstable form does drain easy, maybe it will take some time to master this and unleash it’s true potential.

Likes: Neatness, organization, Music, and his prince title
Dislikes: Irrationality, asymmetrically, condescending people, ignorance
Relationships: The Burning Skull, Samael (Brother in arms)
Other: He owned a Sleeping Dog called Buster
House: Chimera

[Godjacob]

The Origami Queen is here~!

Spoiler: Kim Takahashi

Name: Kimiko "Kim" Takahashi
Age: 16
Gender/Pronouns: She/Her
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Height: 5'6"

Appearance (pictures can also be used): An Asian-American girl with fair skin, dark purple eyes and long black hair she usually ties into a ponytail. Her figure is about average height a girl her age, with an athletic even visibly if lightly toned physique. There is a faded scar across the bridge of her nose, and seems to have a pair of silver ring earrings to add a bit of personal style. Her top consists of a plain white t-shirt where she wears a dark blue vest over it and even fancied a pair of similarly colored gloves. She tends to wear a thigh high white skirt (Decorated with some light blue diamond-shaped glitters across the edge of it) with a pair of black bottoms underneath it to be on the safe side, along with a pair of long white socks and a pair of dark blue shoes..

Personality: A reserved, serious girl who seems to take any activity no matter how minor with the upmost intensity. She is competitive with a desire to be the best and isn't always the most humble about it, often being cold or dismissive of those she doesn't find to impress her. Course, this is just a bitter outer shell she crafted to keep people away from her, fearing the possibility of growing close to someone only for that to be taken away from her. She is loathed with self-resentment and often turns to training or the arts as a distraction, though to those who can chip through her exterior a sweatier and girl with a loving passion may not be fully erased as she believes.

Backstory/History: Kim is the youngest in the Takashi line, a respected and long-lasting line of heroes that she is expected to push on the proud legacy towards. Kim always had a passion for being a hero, though her family always burdened her with their unreasonable expectations; it was never enough to be good, she had to be the best and anything less than that was seen as a failure. Her controlling father more or less isolated her for large sections of her life, seeing things like friends and social activities to be a distraction on her goal to being a future top hero, and was not above physically reprimanding her for her "failures" leading to internal resentment and this sense of loneliness. This feeling only intensified when her older sister graduated and became a pro, leaving her alone, without the one supportive buffer and thus sparking this desire no this need to be perfect to not bring shame to her family.

Powers:
-"Folded Heart" (Kim possesses the ability to transform her body into an enhanced paper at will. Whether it'd be to split Kim's body up into individual pieces of paper, or change sections of her body into a malleable paper replica. This offers her a diverse skillset: She can for example, disperse into various fluttering paper birds to avoid a physical blow and reform into a whole body, she can shift her body and fold over layers of paper to produce things like a paper sword, shield or wings for combat or other utility. The downside is she becomes vulnerable to elemental attacks in this state, such as flames that can burn her paper body or water to make it soggy and weak. This also takes a mental toll the longer or more actions she makes with this ability, leading to headaches or even a full collapse if she overuses it.)

-'Hand to Hand Combat Specialist" (Kim trained extensively in her life thus far to handle herself even without powers, in particular taking a liking to kickboxing and judo so she can always hit hard and use her opponent's size against them. She is not yet a true master in these fields, but highly proficient and growing in skill each day.)

Likes: Her sister, Marcus, Painting, Poetry, Training
Dislikes: Failure, Her father, Her grandfather, Her mother, Slobs
Relationships: Isamu Takahashi (Her grandfather, a retired Pro Hero), Minoru Takahashi (Her father, a semi-active Pro Hero), Asami Takahashi (Her mother, a semi-active Pro Hero), Naomi Takahashi (Her older sister, a relative newcomer Pro Hero), Marcus Stevens (The family caretaker).
Other: In private she often forms her right hand into a paper dog that acts as a puppet she speaks with, a true companion of sorts and she'd sooner kill herself then let anyone discover this little secret of hers. She calls it Carroll, named after one of her favorite authors. A bit sassy and speaks her inner thoughts, though can also be lazy a sleeping dog if you will.
House: Chimera

Spoiler: The Turtle

Name(First and last): Omar Shieldson
Age: 15
Gender: Male
Species: Human
Sexuality: Bisexual
Appearance: 5'8", on a rather muscular frame from training his Wall Ability for three years on a very strong character that may make an appearance in Phone Calls, long grey hair tied back with purple eyes, those eyes having radioactive symbol shaped irides. Going further down, his arm has 30 bar tattoos. He rotates through several outfits that he owns that mostly have a large coat. His boots are steel bodied, and weigh about 3 lbs each.

Abilities and Powers:

Cage: This ability allows him to summon up to five (seven) cages around targets, one to a cage. The wear off if Omar is KOed, the locked one breaks out, an Hour has passed or Omar is moved more than a mile away. Every cage makes 6 bar tattoos on his arm disappear until the cage is broken.

Wall: He can drop any offensive ability for becoming an immovable object. His power is trained to defend against some of the stronger students. If someone hits Omar too hard or too often, it may break his Wall.

Analytics: He can analyze any opponent and figure out a way to counter their attacks, especially useful with allies. He can't always perform the necessary steps to fully counter them however.

Backstory: Omar was born to Middle Class parents, and was in a happy family, that was until a car crash killed his father and four year old sister, on their way to a doctor's appointment. It was then that Omar realized he wanted to protect others, along with helping others and himself find new uses for powers. His mom did what she could for her living children, but Kayla's death in the crash put her in a depression that would last for several months. It was after this time that Omar took things more seriously. After that, he relaxed a bit, but not as much as he used to.

Personality: Omar is Serious, watchful, and is caring for his friends. He can also been seen in the corner, waiting to approached. He will talk if approached by you, and will try to give as much information that he knows as possible depending upon the subject.

If, let's say, during a class, he has to do something and gives you the necklace with the Dollar coin from his dad, it means he trusts you, a lot.

Likes: Coins from around the world, Learning, Figuring out new uses for his powers, helping other people figure out new uses for their powers.

Other: The family pet is a Sleeping dog, and is 4 years old. He also wears on a necklace, a Morgan Dollar from the Carson City Mint in Nevada, it is dated 1882. The necklace was left in the will of his Dad to Omar after the Car Crash. His area Code is 717 (Harrisburg, PA).

She also has whisker tattoos on her face, as a gold dragon has, alongside shimmering, slightly dark skin. Her outfit is a cut off long-sleeved gold shirt, that is somewhat tight to her, and usually a knee length skirt that is black and white, with black shoes as of current. Her hair is long, braided dark hair mixed with streaks of gold.



Personality: Fuyuko is a kind and gentle soul in most situations, a watchful individual, more on the background of events, but if someone hurts someone close to her, you are dealing with something that is on par with some of the most powerful students in the school. Her honesty is more than average.



Backstory/History: She was born powerless to a Wind Manipulator and a Medium. Her father, the Medium spoke with the Metallic Dragon Spirits to embed the Gold Dragon Spirit not too long after she was born. It was at that time her Father's separated wife had died unexpectedly. He then after around a year, Married Fuyumi and brought his eleven children with him. Two of her brothers had died of a Medical condition that had killed their mother, so Naturally, he had been watching for warning signs on the other nine children. Fuyuko was around 8 years old when the Dragon Spirit activated in a Young Dragon Size to defend her from two Fully grown Black Bears. The spirit is currently an Adult Size and intends to stay at that size. As she got older, people started bullying Melanie, after she had her own abilities, calling her names, one eventually tried to test her powers, and was laughing as she was nearly beaten to a pulp. The bullies promptly crapped themselves when Fuyuko showed up, seeping Dragon Spirit out of her midsection, hips and whisker tattoos on her face. Melanie was hiding behind Fuyuko. After that, the bullies transferred schools. The bully incident was a little over a year ago. She has been working on controlling when the Spirit takes over to the present day.



Powers:

Draconic Features: Fuyuko can sprout draconic wings, along with Claws and a Tail of spirit form when preparing for Combat. These usually wear off at the end of combat and don't use much of her energy. She can also, at night, create a mist that covers the school, it creates haunting images when threats to the school are in range of her. She is automatically awoken by the mist, and aware of the general location of the threat.



Breath Weapons:



Normal Form (Fire)- She can use a Fire

Breath that reaches anywhere within a 60° cone that is 60 ft long, it can catch opponents on fire if they are nicked by it.



Spirit Takeover (Weakness)- This Breath is a smog like gas that affects a 60° cone that is 60 ft long, this one however reduces strength based capabilities by 20% for one minute.



Draconic Spirit Takeover- The Dragon Spirit starts seeping out of Fuyuko's midsection, and tattoos, taking the form of an Adult gold Dragon, in a gold outline, Fuyuko is conscious but not in control of her actions. She automatically uses her Fire Breath and Frightful Presence upon transformation. The dragon spirit has Attacks that a Dragon would normally use, like Claws, a Bite attack, a Wing Attack, which can send people back up to 10ft (this is up to the target's RPer how far), still standing or knocked prone (which would be knocked down, again this is determined the target's RPer), can use both Breath Weapons described in the Breath Weapons Section, and can Use Frightful Presence, which can make an opponent unwilling to move closer to her, but only lasts about 20 seconds and can only affect 2 targets (It would be up to the RPer to determine if the targets would be affected). Breaking the Dragon Spirit is the only way to get this power to stop, and it takes a lot of hits, or a few unusually strong hits Break.

[Cryronn the Mudkip]

oh lawd here she comes-

Name: Maya Aofumi
Age: 16
Gender/Pronouns: Female (she/her)
Sexuality: Pansexual
Height: 5’8”
Appearance: Maya is a rather modest young woman, with short and nondescript black hair, and darker skin as per her Asian-Indian ancestry. She has glasses that make her expression hard to read at a simple glance, and with a, while tall, not quite eye-catching figure, she blends in quite nicely, wearing neutral tones that while complimenting her black hair, do nothing to make her appear more noticeable to the crowd- just one of the many masks she can wear, though this is her truest self.
Personality: Maya, baseline, is a rather quiet, well spoken, and well mannered girl. She doesn't have a hard time speaking, or even speaking her mind, though her voice carries a constant sense of neutrality, and she tries her best to not let her emotions get the better of her. She is an honestly quite caring and loving individual, who cherishes each and every friendship she makes.
Backstory/History: Maya was born to a middle-wealth household on the south side of Montana, and she lived most of her early life going to a quiet public school, where it seemed that she had not manifested a power. Hardly deterred, Maya remained a rather confident child, always adamant, strong, and most of all, caring. At the age of 9 however, she was caught in a building fire when she was visiting a friend's house. In order to save said friend, a sudden awakening made the world aware to her power of "Chromatic Masquerade", with her first mask known as "Celine D'Aguessaeu" followed by two others soon after. Due to her power awakened power, her parents decided she deserved a more specialized education, and thus, her entire hometown raised funds for her to join Karma High. Thus, Maya with her three masks in tow, set out for California.

Powers:

Chromatic Masquerade:
Maya can adopt one of 3 different masks, each of which representing a different personality that is amplified, with each granting her different powers- but each coming with the aspect that her fighting approach could change based on each's individual personalities- though they are all "evolutions" of Maya's baseline feelings. Perhaps more masks could be adopted further along...

Celine D'Aguessaeu- The Lady of the Lake
Celine was Maya's first mask, and the one she has the most experience with. When she dons this mask, her hair lengthens and turns blue, and her attire is changed to that of a French dancer's, quite exaggerated and over the top, as her emotions reach a peak of pomp and circumstance. Her grace, eloquence, and overall boisterousness are increased fivefold, and she creates a rapier with designs that resemble waves and water. When in this form, she can use powerful thrusting attacks that launch water, alongside summoning bubbles that launch out. Her fighting style is heavily dance based, and involves twirls, whirls, and spinning as she releases bubbles, whirling kicks in the shape of wave arcs, and thrusts with her rapier. Her mask in this form is blue, and resembles a very typical masquerade mask, with feathers sticking out the top, and a curve down to the nose, only covering half her face.

Yasu Yamamoto- Molten Eruption
Yasu was Maya's second mask, and represents her burning rage and passion. When she dons this mask, her body seems to heighten a little, with her muscle mass packing tight and her hair turning a burning red, her attire becoming rugged leathers representative of Japanese streetwear used by both Yakuza and Hangure groups- or just standard bikers or gangsters. Her attitude becomes much more blunt, jagged, and fiery, with her temper easy to flare, but backed by a raw, uncontested passion. She fights with her fists, which become charged with molten energy, which erupts like magma from her body when she strikes. Her feet as well become able to discharge these burning attacks, and she is very close-quarters in this way. Her mask in this form is pure white, resembling Kabuki masks used in Japanese theatre- notably her's in the shape of the Okami, or Fox.

Valeria Romero- Macabre Shadow in Hiding
Valeria is Maya's most recent mask, awakened only a year prior. When she dons this mask, her body slims slightly, becoming more built for contorting and stealth, with her hair turning a dark navy blue, and her outfit becoming a black suit. Upon this black suit are emblazoned Mexican day of the dead imagery, like marigolds, skulls, and vine patterns, and it is all slim fitting for comfort and utility, while having just enough hanging and flowing parts to make her a bit more of a "gallant" rogue. Within this form, she blends into shadows, able to jump between them, with standard dexterous martial arts, without the over the top glam of Celine and the brute force of Yasu, more pragmatic (if still a little showy). She can also summon twinned shadow daggers if she needs them to defeat her enemies. Her mask in this form is a traditional day of the dead masquerade mask, using muted blacks, oranges, and blues in its color scheme, with a very clear floral or marigold motif.

Trickster:
Even without her masks she is not entirely helpless, as she possesses a tricky fighting repertoire of simple and complex martial arts from a variety of different schools of learning and understanding- though her's is mostly based around momentum reversal and exploitation of opponents greed and underestimating her. Many of her techniques both in base and in her masks are based on her tenure in Gymnastics back in Montana.

Likes: Modest clothing, springtime, autumn, playing video games, table top rpgs, going to the movies
Dislikes: People who are really pushy, bullies, greedy adults, the status quo, empty calories
Relationships: Kavya (Younger sister), Rohan (Father), Anika (Mother)
Other: Yes
House: Chimera

@Cryronn the Mudkip

do you mind if I help with House Sorting for people that can't figure out where their characters are, and dorm Management, where I would give a suggestion and run it by you, of course.

 

[Godjacob]

Also just a suggestion but maybe we should have someone be the backup OP at times life has Cryronn busy so we have help in those moments like for a possible new member joining or something.

 

[Cryronn the Mudkip]

Also just a suggestion but maybe we should have someone be the backup OP at times life has Cryronn busy so we have help in those moments like for a possible new member joining or something.

I give that role three-pronged to Cmeriwether, Blotch’d, and RhythmThief. Basically they can run things if I have an extended absence.

do you mind if I help with House Sorting for people that can't figure out where their characters are, and dorm Management, where I would give a suggestion and run it by you, of course.

Regardless, I wouldn’t mind that at all! If people are confused, you can help them out. Just send me your suggestion dorm placements!

• Anger – A pheromone that smells like something the recipient hates, causes the recipient to enter a state of unbridled rage, causing them to lash out at anyone around them be it friend or foe.
• Peace - A pheromone that smells like the recipient's favourite thing in the world, it causes the recipient to feel completely safe and they become lost in a world of peaceful ignorance unaware of their surroundings.

Empowering Kiss:

posting this for notifs and an alert for a probably new character + might return GoldenWolf as a side-character instead of a main student (probably like a pro-hero or teacher here now for the siren house lol)

 

[Godjacob]

[Inkage]

Spoiler: Coffee and Pumpkin Spice, re-imagined

Name: Pamela Oswald
Age: 15
Gender/Pronouns: She/her
Sexuality: YES (She ain't picky)
Height: 5'5
Appearance: Pamela has brown hair and dull blue eyes. She often laments on her appearance, but she isn't terrible looking and she has a pretty decent figure- her hips being more noticeable than her chest. Most of the time, she holds herself with confidence and poise, making her noticeable even in a crowded room.

Her glasses are entirely fake; she wears them for the chic appearance.
Picrew:

Personality: A bright, social young lady who is charismatic and intellegent. Almost always having something to say, always willing to lend a shoulder to cry upon and an ear to listen. Yep! That's Pamela...Or is it? She actually has quite the convincing act and is in fact a textbook manipulator.
The most positive way to put it is that she's flexible. She can get along with pretty much anyone because she is a master at ingratiating and copying speech patterns. She cares quite a bit about powers, and prefers friends with strong powers as opposed to those that are mostly useless.
However, at her core, she is a sisterly figure who just wishes the best for her friends, although that aspect is almost entirely buried in her manipulative defense system. When it comes to romance, she has a keen eye and a sarcastic tongue. What is this, a cartoon? She's gonna pick up on signs.
Backstory/History: Pamela's parents met in college; her mother was a professor, and her father one of her pupils. Theirs was a blossoming love. It quickly escalated to marriage and, eventually, 3 children in quick succession.
It was a happy family unit, until one day Pamela's father broke it apart forever.
He became violent. Her father became violent, and started to become prone to rages. It became so bad that her mother left, never to return again. Pamela, as the eldest, stepped up to the plate and directed her younger siblings in the art of avoiding confrontation.
Pamela learned to adapt. Pamela learned to command, and she loved the power of control. She was too young to know just how terrible she was becoming, and by the time the CPS intervened and took all three children, she had already learned what she needed to tell them to make sure her father never could get custody again.
"He made mommy disappear, miss cop lady! She's gone!"
Luckily, Pamela's grandmother was willing and able to adopt all three children. With her they have stayed until one day Pamela gets a letter of acceptance from a prestigious school, and begins attending Karma High...
Powers:
Caffeinated: She basically lives in pure, evaporated Caffeine. Her pores emit it, and those who breath it in (including herself) slowly become more hyper and alert over time. The effects wear off when they can no longer detect Pamela's scent (There is no good way to put that).
However, Caffeine has negative health benefits. Those who hang around her for a period longer than 42 hours experience mild symptoms, like headache, fever, nausea, vomiting, tinnitus, tachycardia, anxiety, insomnia, dizziness, or irritability, or more severe symptoms like seizures.
Emote Energy: She can condense energy into small balls and shoot them from her palms. These balls of energy have different amounts of electrical charges depending on the size of the ball. A ball the size of a baseball would make someone numb. She can't make a ball bigger than what she can hold in a single hand.
Likes: Caffeine, Fluffy Things, Romantic Gossip, Games, Spontaneous Acts of Affection, Ice Cream, Quiet Moments, Winter Aesthetics, Cats
Dislikes: Social Events, Needles, Being Alone, Bad Parenting, Dirtiness, Unpredictability, Pointless Rebellion, Unexpected actions, Chess, Dogs
Relationships: Family; Grandmother (Nariz Oswald), Brother (Tray Oswald), and Sister (Tasha Oswald)
Other: She dislikes dogs because one bit her while it slept. Who's ever heard of a Sleeping Dog biting someone?
House: Siren

Spoiler: NOT your generation's Bernadette

Name: Isolde Barley
Age: 15
Gender/Pronouns: Feminine (She/They)
Sexuality: "S-S-Se...WHAT!?" (Bisexual)
Height: 4'10
Appearance (pictures can also be used): Isolde has vibrant eyes, which are her most prominent feature. Platinum blonde and flat as a board, she appears even shorter than she usually is because of the way she slouches with shyness.
Picrew:

Personality; A shy girl who can't maintain conversation very well with people she's just met, as she is constantly afraid of persecution. She can't handle the stares of people, and freezes up whenever someone approaches her. She usually won't talk to someone, and when she does, she stutters a bit. If she can speak to you without stuttering, know that she thinks highly of you and considers you a close friend. Or she's pissed. Good luck telling the difference!
Even when someone is only looking out for her or complimenting her, she will usually take it as hostility. She ends up spending most of her time in her room as a result. Isolde also has very low self esteem, rarely acknowledges her own talents, and often comes of as hypocritical because she goes back on nearly everything she says.
Backstory/History: She is constantly second guessing herself because she has a father who gaslights her all the time. Other than his horrible attitude and quick temper, Isolde had a normal childhood until she manifested. Then she naturally grew to distrust people because of this power.
Powers:
Yellow Justice: Her yellow eye can see through objects she chooses and concealment (i.e Powers that conceal or change one's regular appearance, and lies)
Blue Righteousness: Her blue eye can sense malicious or evil intent (Such as if someone wanted to punch her, she would know the moment they commit to the idea)
Likes: Truthfulness, Silence, Lollipops, Plants, Warmth, Naivete, Cats, Hiding her face, Sweaters, Warmth, Closets and small rooms
Dislikes: Personal Space Invasion, Being disturbed, Public speaking, Insults, Loud noises and subtle movements, scary stories, ghosts

Name: Hana Ki
Age: 16
Gender/Pronouns: She/Her
Sexuality: No.
Height: 5'8
Appearance:

Personality: Hana (Or Ki as she prefers to be called) is a mysterious student. She refuses to talk about her family at all, and deflects any mention of them. Hana is cynical and extremely cold towards most people. She has a softer side, but that is rarely ever shown to anyone, even to those close to her. Maintains a thin veil of courtesy, and every move she makes and every word she says is designed to further her lot in life.
Backstory/History: "Not your business!" (TBD)
Powers:
(REDACTED): Though exact effects and name are unclear, she apparently doesn't need to eat or drink.
Virus: Anyone she bites has their powers replaced with 'Virus' for 1 hour afterwards.
Blood Whip: She can create blood whips through openings in her bloodstream (AKA Wounds). The strength and length of the whip depends on how big the wound is.
Likes: Blood, Pain, The color red, Freedom, Hot Springs, Thick drinks
Dislikes: Rushed relationships, Starving, Milk, Powers that Force Emotion, People
Relationships: Adoptive Father
Other: Sleeping Dog
House: Pegasus

The last one will not be prominent and serves for world enrichment. She'll only be there for a semester or so.

Spoiler: An (almost) complete overhaul of portal man

Name: Orion Cross
Age: 16
Gender/Pronouns: He/Him
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Height: 5'10
Appearance: Orion is a brown skinned-young man with black dreadlocks, usually tied into a ponytail, decorated by a cream-coloured band with accompanying cuffs. Perhaps his most notable feature is the colour of his eyes - a deep, almost mystical purple.

Spoiler: Picrew

Personality: Orion carries himself with the air of an adventurous daredevil, often seen as arrogant and self-confident. He's highly intelligent and cunning, utilizing his quick thinking and sharp wit to navigate various challenges.

Purely for the adrenaline, he ventures into risky situations, disregarding potential consequences and rules in his pursuit of excitement and discovery. His exploratory nature leads him to constantly seek out the unknown, pushing boundaries without hesitation.

Behind his confident facade, however, lies a deeply wounded individual who conceals his vulnerabilities beneath his bravado. Orion uses his confident exterior as a shield, masking the trauma he's reluctant to acknowledge. He secretly harbors a critical perspective of his surroundings, often scrutinizing others for flaws he perceives in himself.

Despite his self-assured demeanor, Orion grapples with a profound image problem, avoiding looking at his own reflection wherever possible and haunted by hidden insecurities.

Backstory/History:

Spoiler: An Adventurous Heart

Orion spent his childhood in the picturesque state of Colorado, surrounded by the Rocky Mountains and captivated by tales of adventure. His parents, an esteemed geologist and astrologist respectively, held an unbridled passion for uncovering ancient mysteries and celestial wonders.

They embarked on expeditions across remote landscapes, chasing after geological wonders and cosmic mysteries, rich in untold stories, and often relaying their tales of adventure to their excited, curious son.

However, tragedy struck when Orion was merely a child—his parents vanished during an expedition, leaving behind only unanswered questions and a young boy longing for their return. Raised by his uncle, a pragmatic yet caring figure in Denver, Orion clung to the cherished stories of his parents' explorations, yearning to follow in their footsteps and solve the mystery of their disappearance.

As a child, Orion exhibited a mischievous streak, often engaging in daredevil antics to capture attention and carve a name for himself in the world of exploration. Lockpicking into restricted areas, outsmarting authority figures, and orchestrating elaborate pranks were among his adventurous endeavors.

One fateful night, Orion was drawn to the night sky, searching for solace and a connection to his missing parents. It was during one of these introspective moments that his latent powers began to manifest. As he gazed upon the stars, Orion experienced a surreal awakening—he inadvertently created a shimmering, purple portal to his room, where an old photo of his parents was framed peacefully, a symbol of his truest desire.

Prompted by this extraordinary event, he learned to channel his pain and longing into a passion for exploration. He emulated the daring spirit of his role models, delving into the worlds of geology and astrology, among other subject fields, hoping to unearth clues that might lead to discovering what happened to his parents.

Despite his newfound purpose, his rebellious nature and thirst for excitement still often led to escapades that challenged conventions, broke the hearts of more than a few middle-school crushes, and, perhaps, one too many Principal - Uncle meetings, reflecting both his desire for recognition and his inner turmoil stemming from the unresolved mystery of his parents' disappearance.

His Uncle, knowing full well that nothing could stop his dear nephew from following in the footsteps of his parents, approached Orion one day about an institution - Karma High, renowned for its excellence in nurturing and harnessing extraordinary abilities.

Unbeknownst to the teen, Karma would soon become his beacon of hope—a place where he could unravel the mystery of his powers while pursuing answers about his parents' disappearance, no matter how painful those same answers may prove to be.

Powers:

Spoiler: PORTAL SHIFTER

The user can create portals at will, that appear a deep, dark purple in colour, allowing themselves (and other entities) to instantaneously travel between different locations. The user can also manipulate properties of the portal, such as placement, size, shape, and duration of the portals.

In order to manifest the portal, the wielder must first visualize where they'd like to place it, and where they'd like it to lead, and as such, the user is unable to create portals to places they have never seen or visited personally.

It is possible to derive this information solely from photographs, drawings, descriptions etc. In this case, the effort and time required to manifest the portal significantly increase as a result, and it is likely that the portal will be inaccurate in destination.

Likewise, the more familiar a location is to the user, the easier time they'll have creating portals to that particular destination. Destinations within direct line-of-sight are the easiest and portals leading to these these can be manifested instantly.

Similarly, deliberate practice using the power can increase the general speed and accuracy of portal manifestation, and decrease the effort required for such, among other varied benefits.

By default, each portal summoned will be of exact height and width to accommodate the user, made in the shape of an oval. Portal properties such as height, size etc. can either be set before manifestation, or altered dynamically after the portal's creation, which requires slightly more effort.

Finally, creating and maintaining portals require energy and focus, both of which can deplete even faster if maintaining multiple portals, larger portals, travelling far distances, sustaining them for long periods etc.

If the user is in an unstable or emotional state of mind, it can have unpredictable effects on the use of their power.

[Cmeriwether]

Spoiler: Someone's Twin Sister

Name: Gina Kiara Shieldson
Age: 15
Gender/Pronouns: Feminine (She/They)
Sexuality: Demisexual/Panromantic
Height: 5'3"
Appearance (pictures can also be used): Gina has long, tied back Dark brown Hair, there is a grey streak in the front of her hair that grew in from the stress of her dad's death. She is of an larger frame, but that frame is more curvaceous than one would expect. Outside of Uniform, Gina commonly wears a mix of modest and revealing outfits based on the season. Her body is scarred with marks from electrical burns in middle school that Omar dealt with. She will explain the burns when she feels is the right time, otherwise, she will suddenly become scared if prodded too much.

Personality; Gina is the definition of Extroverted, very bubbly, enthusiastic, and will greet others as soon as she sees them. She also can be sensitive, and picks up on people having a bad day. She is also very confident in herself and does not have issues with her body, other than some scarring from Electrical burns in middle school. Those scars led to a four on one fight after Gina went on her own to break up with an ex-boyfriend. She will suddenly be shy if asked about them, since she doesn't want to talk about how she got them. She may flirt a little from time to time.

Backstory/History: Same As Omar's other than she dated an Abusive Lightning user for about 4 months before she met Mercedes, who she dated for about a year. During this time, she had a crush on someone who wasn't sure if they were male or female, or somewhere in between. This would lead to realizations about herself.

Powers:

Structural Analysis: Gina can look at an inanimate object and determine how structurally sound the object is. Her energy is consumed based on the size of the structure. This can possibly kill her if the structure is very large. Currently, the largest structure or inanimate object that she can safely determine is a Naval Destroyer. If she tries to determine the integrity of anything bigger it may knock her out.

Reader of Romance (Jealousy): Gina somehow received this power as her Personal addition. This power allows her to use her own or someone else's jealousy to fuel her physical capabilities. At the maximum level, her physical abilities are increased by 50%. She can use at most the combined Jealousy of Two People, including herself. She can use this power to figure out if someone is in a Love triangle, or there's Trouble in Paradise (If two characters are already in a relationship).

Likes: Learning about new things, Learning the intricacies of Powers, gaming, separate the Rumors of relationship between confirmed and suspected.

Dislikes: Boredom, Blocked Views, People asking about her scars before the time is right, people suspecting the worst about her

Relationships: Gina had Broke up with her longtime girlfriend, Mercedes, shortly before her arrival to Karma. Other than that, she has the Same Relationships as Omar Shieldson.
Other: There is a Sleeping Dog who is currently 4. She has tried to get her brothers a date, so far, she has landed Simeon one and their relationship has gone steady.
House: Siren

YES.

That's exactly right - Pamela was actually a big inspiration for this new take on Orion. I feel their relationship could be an interesting one. Perhaps, eventually, they'll begin to see fragments of themselves in one another, and begin the road to recovery together, whatever that may look like

Bios done! If somebody can help me decide whether Andrew's Chimera or Pegasus, greatly appreciate it as I am too tired to think ^^
Edit (16/11/23) : Problem solved

Also, question: When are we assigning dorms?

Spoiler: New and Improved Soap Formula!

Name: Gwen Kendra
Age: 16
Gender/Pronouns: Female (She/Her)
Sexuality: Bisexual
Height: 5'8

Appearance: Gwen has light caramel, wavy hair that cascades down her back, contrasting her piercing navy blue eyes. A perpetual air of sarcasm and bubbliness follows her wherever she goes, shown in her confident stride and permeantly satirical grin plastered on her face.

Picrew:

Personality: A social butterfly with a penchant for pranks, puns, and a flair for the dramatic makes for the incredible experience of getting to know Gwen, or so she hopes. Despite her sarcastic demeanor, she's very perceptive of others and their boundaries, and is protective over those she cares about. With her true emotions heavily guarded, Gwen always puts others first and finds solace in being a reliable figure for others, as she enjoys feeling needed and lets her fight back against any self-esteem and abandonment issues she has. Underneath her playful exterior is a hopeless romantic's heart, despite what the most prominent relationship in her life has shown her, and for geniune connections.

Backstory: Gwen and Andrew were born to a pair of college students, their youthful indiscretion shielding their inability to cope with the sudden responsibilities of parenthood. Their mother made the brash decision of dropping out, hoping to dedicate herself to her new role. However, the romanticized notion of family life for the two quickly dissolved under the weight of reality.

She struggled with the demands of motherhood, neglect becoming a common trend once her children were able to decently take care of themselves as she sought to reclaim her lost youth through partying and other social events. Years pass as their love diminished, arguments growing more heated and violent, to the point where their father left after being overwhelmed by the realization of how unprepared he was for all of this.

The twins' needs had always took a backseat to the delusion of their parents' relationship, and the departure of one surprisingly brought positive results, in the smallest way possible. This caused their mother to finally take parenting seriously, despite the spiralling depression she was in. Taking the odd job at day to make ends meet, the two had their first semblance of a carer, albeit very loosely as her emotional detachment still caused a lack of support and nurturing, even with her best efforts. This remained true even after their mother got married years later, leading to the birth of their half-sibling as well.

Gwen, perhaps in search of the affection and attention she missed from her parents, became adept at reading others and sensitive to their needs, always placing them before her own. Her outwardly vibrant identity hid a deep-seated fear of abandonment and craving for validation, driving her to become the very support system she herself never had but always desired. Gwen's desire for caretaking was not only a means of connecting with others but also a way to distract her from her own feelings of loneliness and self-doubt.

Powers:

Soapflux

Gwen's hands secrete soapy fluid at will. The fluid can be sprayed as a projectile from her hands, used to blur one's vision for a short period of time, applied to objects or surfaces to make them more slippery, or clean dirt and harmful substances. Gwen can also create (surpisingly durable) bubbles of varying sizes that pop after a period of time, and can control their movement. They erupt into a soapy explosion when enough force is applied. A bubble's size can vary, and the larger the bubble, the more durable it is, the longer the duration and the bigger the explosion. Lightweight objects can be stored inside the bubbles, and the heavier the object, the harder it is for Gwen to control the bubble. A significant amount of water can dilute this fluid.

Visocity

Gwen can control the visocity of the fluids she comes into contact with, from high visocity (a consistency such as honey) or low visocity, such as water. This also affects her soapy fluid and the bubbles produced by Soapflux.

Likes: Romcoms, games, puns, cats, being helpful, relationship-building, creativity
Dislikes: Irresponsibility, being ignored, dirtiness, shouting, arrogance, irresponsiblity, monotomy
Relationships: Twin brother (Andrew Kendra), mother (Lucia Kendra), stepfather (Kai Reeves), half-sister (Audrey Reeves), birth father (Kai Hart)
Other: When Gwen's stressed, she likes watching videos of sleeping dogs.
House: Gryphon

Spoiler: Now with FLUDD!

Name: Andrew Kendra
Age: 16
Gender/Pronouns: Male (He/Him)
Sexuality: Straight
Height: 5'10

Appearance: Andrew sports light brown hair with a more muted blue for his eyes with a deadpan stare. Andrew has a more slouched frame, albeit taller, exuding a nonchalant and indifferent air around him.

Picrew:

Personality: Andrew's laid-back, carefree and calm demeanour, conceals a surpisingly sharp and analytical mind, much like his sister. He tends to keep to himself, with antisocial tendencies, dry responses and being emotionally detached at times. He keeps an indifferent and easygoing attitude towards generally everything he comes across, with hints of pessimism, although this doesn't make him completly emphetic. Despite not being as expressive as his counterpart, Andrew does still care about those he trusts, even if he doesn't show it.

Backstory: Andrew and Gwen were born to a pair of college students, their youthful indiscretion shielding their inability to cope with the sudden responsibilities of parenthood. Their mother made the brash decision of dropping out, hoping to dedicate herself to her new role. However, the romanticized notion of family life for the two quickly dissolved under the weight of reality.

She struggled with the demands of motherhood, neglect becoming a common trend once her children were able to decently take care of themselves as she sought to reclaim her lost youth through partying and other social events. Years pass as their love diminished, arguments growing more heated and violent, to the point where their father left after being overwhelmed by the realization of how unprepared he was for all of this.

The twins' needs had always took a backseat to the delusion of their parents' relationship, and the departure of one surprisingly brought positive results, in the smallest way possible. This caused their mother to finally take parenting seriously, despite the spiralling depression she was in. Taking the odd job at day to make ends meet, the two had their first semblance of a carer, albeit very loosely as her emotional detachment still caused a lack of support and nurturing, even with her best efforts. This remained true even after their mother got married years later, leading to the birth of their half-sibling as well.

Andrew internalized his family's turmoil, gaining a deep resentment and regularly lashing out, making it not uncommon for him to end up in school fights. However his temper faded as he grew up, adopting a more detached and introspective approach to life and fostering a sense of pessimism and ignorance. His reticence to engage and reclusiveness had birthed from his independence and self-reliance, viewing the world through a lens tinted by the challenges of his upbringing.

Power:

Jetstream

Andrew can launch controlled beams of pressurized water from his hands of varying sizes, from as small as a bullet to his entire hand. Excessive use of this power can make Andrew hydrated, to the point of exhaustion. The larger the beam, the more energy but less accuracy is required.

Velocity

Andrew can control the velocity of fluids when making contact with them, from a slow velocity that can make the fluid appear to move in slow-mo, to high velocity at high speeds. This can be used in tandem with Jetstream, allowing him to shoot high speed beams of pressurized water. He can also hover and reach high accelerated speeds, however this would still require precise control and reaction speed to avoid crashing.

Likes: Interesting topics, stargazing/astronomy, rain, reading, sleep, puzzles, solitude
Dislikes: Small talk, drama, over-enthusiasm, being rushed, children, unpredictability, spicy food
Relationships: Twin sister (Gwen Kendra), mother (Lucia Kendra), stepfather (Kai Reeves), half-sister (Audrey Reeves), birth father (Kai Hart)
Other: His sister constantly compares him to a sleeping dog.
House: Pegasus

Edit (7/3/24) : backstory/relationships/likes & dislikes improved for Gwen and Andrew

Spoiler: "Eye" see everything

Name: Arielle Sterling
Age: 15
Gender/Pronouns: Female (She/Her)
Sexuality: Straight
Height: 5'5"

Appearance: Arielle's known for her permenant small frown, and petite figure with her arms practically glued to their parallel elbow or her face. She has bronze skin, her hair also brown and braided. Her prominent feature (much to her dismay) is her blindfold, as to avoid those seeing just her eye sockets when her power is active, and to prevent eye damage. Although, those who report to have seen Ari's eyes all describe it as bloodshot, constrasting her surpisingly mellow emerald green pupils. If ever seen outside of her uniform, Ari is always seen wearing a coat and usually baggy clothing.

Picrew:

Personality: Ari keeps an aloof, reserved and anxious aura around her, intentionally to fly off the radar and keep eyes off of her. She lacks confidence within herself, mainly regarding her powers and appearance, making her cautious and rather sensitive. This caution even extends to her speech, saying few words at a time and most of them being repeating herself due to her soft and reticent voice. Social skills is not her strong suit, her silence emphazing her lack to speak with others in fear of judgy people. Although those persistent enough to get to know her finds a caring and compassionate soul, fiercly loyal and (perhaps a bit too much) affectionate.

Backstory: Once friendly and talkative, Arielle's powers developed at a young age, much faster than her other siblings and friends. However, the use of these powers gave her a less... appealling look and generally warded people away. Even if she adorded them, Arielle quickly became the subject of mockery and ridicule as others gained their powers, causing her to become more reserved and begin to wear a blindfold. This wouldn't stop repetitive, and occassionally hurtful, comments from breaking through her self-imposed barrier, however.

Power:

Omnivision

Arielle is capable of converting either of her eyes into a swarm of green, molecular size and massive amount of particles with their own mass. They naturally attract together, and provides Arielle a cohesive field of view, remote from her body. She can move and control them freely, and can combine them to create constructs based off of her imagination of varying size, however the larger they are makes the particles spread out further and the more fragile the construct is.

When converting both eyes into particles, they become two independent groups of particles, providing two different perspectives that her brain is already accustomed to. When they are both nearby, they become a large combined swarm that allows her to see one third person perspective, and stronger constructs. This all comes with the drawback of leaving her body more defenseless without her eyes, as well as having to nagivate with a different perspective. The weaker her eyes, the weaker the particles, and excessive damage to the particles can cause headaches. They convert back to her eyes by all gathering back to her eyesocket.


Likes: Tranquility, sketching, nature, being cold, nighttime, learning, quiet areas

Dislikes: Being cold, bullying, loud and crowded environments, judgement, insects, confrontation, injustice

Relationships: Arielle has 2 younger sisters and a younger brother: Isabella, Olivia and Lucas, respectively that ironically all don't respect her as a big sibling. She also has both her parents.

Other: She loves to survey areas at night, especially all the sleeping dogs at night.

House: Siren

Bios done! If somebody can help me decide whether Andrew's Chimera or Pegasus, greatly appreciate it as I am too tired to think ^^

Also, question: When are we assigning dorms?

Spoiler: New and Improved Soap Formula! (Now with FLUDD!)

Spoiler: RIP blue hair :( (Gwen)

Name: Gwen Kendra
Age: 16
Gender/Pronouns: Female (She/Her)
Sexuality: Bisexual
Height: 5'8

Appearance: Gwen has light caramel, wavy hair that cascades down her back, contrasting her piercing navy blue eyes. A perpetual air of sarcasm and bubbliness follows her wherever she goes, shown in her confident stride and permeantly satirical grin plastered on her face.

Picrew:

View attachment 947491

Personality: A social butterfly with a penchant for pranks, puns, and a flair for the dramatic makes for the incredible experience of getting to know Gwen, or so she hopes. Despite her sarcastic demeanor, she's very perceptive of others and their boundaries, capable of switching into big sister mode near instantly. With her true emotions heavily guarded, Gwen always puts others first and finds solace in being a reliable figure for others, as she enjoys feeling needed and lets her fight back against any self-esteem and abandonment issues she has. Underneath her playful exterior is a hopeless romantic's heart, despite what the most prominent relationship in her life has shown her, and for geniune connections.

Backstory: A series of poor decisions paved the path to the birth of Gwen and, ten minutes later, her twin brother Andrew. Born to parents ill-equipped for the responsibilities of raising children, their mother struggled to balance starting college while their father provided the bare necessities of food, water, and shelter. The twins developed an immensely close bond as they both grew up, recognizing early on in their lives that they would have to rely on each other.

Their childhood was overall overshadowed by neglect, as their parents were either intoxicated or simply not present in their lives for more than an hour at a time. Eventually, their father left, which ended up a rare positive for them. This left their mother, fresh out of college, to shoulder the responsibility of providing for the two, while she slowly turning her life back around after barely graduating. This, along with both Gwen and Andrew being accepted into Karma High, marked a turning point for the both of them.

Powers:

Soapflux

Gwen's hands secrete soapy fluid at will. The fluid can be sprayed as a projectile from her hands, used to blur one's vision for a short period of time, applied to objects or surfaces to make them more slippery, or clean dirt and harmful substances. Gwen can also create (surpisingly durable) bubbles of varying sizes that pop after a period of time, and can control their movement. They erupt into a soapy explosion when enough force is applied. A bubble's size can vary, and the larger the bubble, the more durable it is, the longer the duration and the bigger the explosion. Lightweight objects can be stored inside the bubbles, and the heavier the object, the harder it is for Gwen to control the bubble. A significant amount of water can dilute this fluid.

Visocity

Gwen can control the visocity of the fluids she comes into contact with, from high visocity (a consistency such as honey) or low visocity, such as water. This also affects her soapy fluid and the bubbles produced by Soapflux.

Likes: Novels, games, banter, cats, her brother

Dislikes: Irresponsibility, being ignored, dirtiness, shouting, her brother

Relationships: Gwen has a twin brother called Andrew, and her single mother.

Other: When Gwen's stressed, she likes watching videos of sleeping dogs.

House: Gryphon

Spoiler: What if Gwen was always depressed? (Andrew)

Name: Andrew Kendra
Age: 16
Gender/Pronouns: Male (He/Him)
Sexuality: Straight
Height: 5'10

Appearance: Andrew sports light brown hair with a more muted blue for his eyes with a deadpan stare. Andrew has a more slouched frame, albeit taller, exuding a nonchalant and indifferent air around him.

Picrew:

View attachment 947492

Personality: Andrew's laid-back, carefree and calm demeanour, conceals a surpisingly sharp and analytical mind, much like his sister. He tends to keep to himself, with antisocial tendencies, dry responses and being emotionally detached at times. He keeps an indifferent and easygoing attitude towards generally everything he comes across, with hints of pessimism, although this doesn't make him completly emphetic. Despite not being as expressive as his counterpart, Andrew does still care about those he trusts, even if he doesn't show it.

Backstory: A series of poor decisions paved the path to the birth of Andrew, ten minutes after his twin sister Gwen. Born to parents ill-equipped for the responsibilities of raising children, their mother struggled to balance starting college while their father provided the bare necessities of food, water, and shelter. The twins developed an immensely close bond as they both grew up, recognizing early on in their lives that they would have to rely on each other.

Their childhood was overall overshadowed by neglect, as their parents were either intoxicated or simply not present in their lives for more than an hour at a time. Eventually, their father left, which ended up a rare positive for them. This left their mother, fresh out of college, to shoulder the responsibility of providing for the two, while she slowly turning her life back around after barely graduating. This, along with both Andrew and Gwen being accepted into Karma High, marked a turning point for the both of them.

Power:

Jetstream

Andrew can launch controlled beams of pressurized water from his hands of varying sizes, from as small as a bullet to his entire hand. Excessive use of this power can make Andrew hydrated, to the point of exhaustion. The larger the beam, the more energy but less accuracy is required.

Velocity

Andrew can control the velocity of fluids when making contact with them, from a slow velocity that can make the fluid appear to move in slow-mo, to high velocity at high speeds. This can be used in tandem with Jetstream, allowing him to shoot high speed beams of pressurized water. He can also hover and reach high accelerated speeds, however this would still require precise control and reaction speed to avoid crashing.

Likes: Interesting topics, astronomy, rain, reading, his sister

Dislikes: Small talk, drama, over-enthusiasm, being rushed, his sister

Relationships: Andrew has his twin sister Gwen, and his single mother.

Other: He's been compared to a sleeping dog by his sister.

House:

Spoiler: "Eye" see everything

Name: Arielle Sterling
Age: 15
Gender/Pronouns: Female (She/Her)
Sexuality: Straight
Height: 5'5"

Appearance: Arielle's known for her permenant small frown, and petite figure with her arms practically glued to their parallel elbow or her face. She has bronze skin, her hair also brown and braided. Her prominent feature (much to her dismay) is her blindfold, as to avoid those seeing just her eye sockets when her power is active, and to prevent eye damage. Although, those who report to have seen Ari's eyes all describe it as bloodshot, constrasting her surpisingly mellow emerald green pupils. If ever seen outside of her uniform, Ari is always seen wearing a coat and usually baggy clothing.

Picrew:

View attachment 947490

Personality: Ari keeps an aloof, reserved and anxious aura around her, intentionally to fly off the radar and keep eyes off of her. She lacks confidence within herself, mainly regarding her powers and appearance, making her cautious and rather sensitive. This caution even extends to her speech, saying few words at a time and most of them being repeating herself due to her soft and reticent voice. Social skills is not her strong suit, her silence emphazing her lack to speak with others in fear of judgy people. Although those persistent enough to get to know her finds a caring and compassionate soul, fiercly loyal and (perhaps a bit too much) affectionate.

Backstory: Once friendly and talkative, Arielle's powers developed at a young age, much faster than her other siblings and friends. However, the use of these powers gave her a less... appealling look and generally warded people away. Even if she adorded them, Arielle quickly became the subject of mockery and ridicule as others gained their powers, causing her to become more reserved and begin to wear a blindfold. This wouldn't stop repetitive, and occassionally hurtful, comments from breaking through her self-imposed barrier, however.

Power:

Omnivision

Arielle is capable of converting either of her eyes into a swarm of green, molecular size and massive amount of particles with their own mass. They naturally attract together, and provides Arielle a cohesive field of view, remote from her body. She can move and control them freely, and can combine them to create constructs based off of her imagination of varying size, however the larger they are makes the particles spread out further and the more fragile the construct is.

When converting both eyes into particles, they become two independent groups of particles, providing two different perspectives that her brain is already accustomed to. When they are both nearby, they become a large combined swarm that allows her to see one third person perspective, and stronger constructs. This all comes with the drawback of leaving her body more defenseless without her eyes, as well as having to nagivate with a different perspective. The weaker her eyes, the weaker the particles, and excessive damage to the particles can cause headaches. They convert back to her eyes by all gathering back to her eyesocket.


Likes: Peace, reading, nature, being cold, nighttime

Dislikes: Being cold, bullying, loud places, judgement, insects

Relationships: Arielle has 2 younger sisters and a younger brother: Isabella, Olivia and Lucas, respectively that ironically all don't respect her as a big sibling. She also has both her parents.

Other: She loves to survey areas at night, especially all the sleeping dogs.

That's why I'm here, Gold the Dragonite, I'm leaning towards Pegasus with Andrew.

If Arielle is accepted, would it be okay if Omar develops a crush on her?

 

[DevVoid]

Well since it's a fresh start, I may as well start off with a fresh character first and decide later on whether or not to bring one of the boys over.

EDIT: And so the first few fun facts have been added.

Spoiler: Yes, it is a reference. No, you don't get to guess. Unless you want to, of course.

Name: Ralyegh (pronounced like Raleigh) Innsmouth

Age: 16

Gender/Pronouns: Male (He/Him)

Sexuality: Straight

Height: 12.5 ft, mainly due to his inhumanly-outstretched body.

Appearance: Ralyegh's stature appears tall and pale, like someone had just taken a human and just stretched them like a rubber band. His skin appears pale and close to fair, though there also appears a faint, sickly-green hue mixed into his pigments. His hair is ash-black, long and messy, as if a charred octopus was sat atop his head. His eyes are a luminescent, almost orange-ish yellow with black spots, appearing almost extraterrestial in nature. His digits, especially his fingers, appear stretched and edged, his nails being more like claws, giving the appearance of having pointed digits instead of regular human ones. Even though he appears so tall, his physique is still relatively wide enough to appear average and not at all slender. His typical clothing consists of a dark-green hoodie over a dark-brown leather coat, hood pulled up over his eyes, sunglasses placed over his bulging, bulbous eyes and a black scarf tucked over the squid-like beak that is his mouth. Due to his abnormally-shaped hands and feet, he has to wear leather gloves and boots, both black in color, while something like hand warmers and socks are completely out of the question as they would get torn apart almost instantly. His pants are more normal, being just simple leather khakis, albeit with abnormally tall legs befitting of his own.

Personality: Ralyegh often appears withdrawn and reserved, trying his best to keep a distance from people thanks to being aware of his ominous aura tending to creep others out. He tries his best to be nice, but with his shy and often complacent attitude, harassment has often been a big problem for him - though, not long enough to cause any lasting psychological effects thanks to his minions manifesting themselves to become the night terrors and day pranksters of those who had shown any ill-will against him, though he did manage to get enough control over this ability to stop them from automatically manifesting from his mass to avenge their master. Even if not yet formed, these minions often tend to voice themselves inside Ral's head, which causes him to stand out even more as an oddball because he often tends to talk aloud, as if speaking to an invisible creature when really, he's just not realising that he's speaking his thoughts aloud. He's managed to get some control over this too, but it still slips past him on occasion.

Spoiler: Forgotten History

Ralyegh's past is shrouded in a veil of mystery, as even his origin seems to be an unknown variable. Any close family he's had is already deceased, his powers disallow any sort of genetic testing and his hair and eyes don't even resemble those of his supposedly biological parents. His parents had a long history of being archaeologists on both sides of the family, though where one dealt with underground dig sites, the other went diving under the seas for artifacts.

Rumours say the Innsmouth family ended up discovering something they shouldn't have and that they were already going seemingly crazy before their son's conception, though only Ralyegh seems to know at least a portion of the answer to these rumour's questions.. truth be told however, there are some things even he doesn't know about. Won't stop him from trying to get to the bottom of things, though. He can't just let Sleeping Dogs lie after all, so why should he?

Powers: Ralyegh's origin of his power is unknown, and it certainly lives up to this mysterious origin by being equally enigmatic. First and foremost, Ralyegh's insides appear to be nothing but some sort of black sludge, which begs the question of whether Ral's the shell or the writhing, dark mass within. Either way, Ralyegh can seemingly shatter and re-form parts of his body in order to reveal the oozing, almost-physical liquid inside, moreso being on the shapeshifting side rather than being actual regeneration as he can't heal back injuries caused by others, though those do also heal on their own using his stamina as a source to feed on. Strangely, due to this sludge replacing most of his organs and even his skeletal structure, Ralyegh also does not have requirement for sleeping, nor does he ever seem to get sick from diseases, have a need to breathe or can suffer from any sort of chemical exposure or poisoning. The only human thing he still has a need for seems to be sustenance, particularly flesh and any kind of meat in general, making him more of a carnivore than an omnivore as, while he can eat plant-based foods, they don't bring him any benefit whatsoever.

From his sludge, Ralyegh can produce minions of all shapes and sizes, provided they fit through whatever hole he can manage for them and as long as he still has enough energy to spare. These minions can act on their own accord, though they will also follow any command given to them by the boy, even if it means putting their own lives on the line. If defeated/killed, these sludge-like minions tend to melt and vaporize into black, mist-like vapours that quickly dissipate into the air and disappear. Though they usually tend to look different, there's always two key factors to look out for; their blob-like consistence and their glowing, yellow eyes. Strangely, despite their liquid, almost mud-like consistence, they never seem to leave a trail of their own mass behind themselves, regardless of their movement, just like how Ralyegh never leaves any sludge behind himself. At least, not any sludge he is willing to part with, that is.

Ralyegh's physical power such as durability and strength also appear to be much more than should be humanly possible, though his speed does come up lacking, ironic for someone of his size. This is mostly in part to the sludge residing under his skin, which he can also form into different constructs and appendages to be used like an extra limb, such as an arm, a tentacle, an eye, etc. All he needs is for the sludge to still be connected to his body and for his body to have a large-enough opening for said limb to be formed out of. Forming limbs themselves isn't tiring, nor is using them. It really is just like growing another part of his body, with energy cost and exhaustion only equaling to the same result as one would have when overexerting themselves with enough movement, though without any of the muscle soreness or potential tearing. Because, you know.. it's hard to get sore muscles when all you have is just black sludge.

Lastly, his most influential power by far stems from the sludge itself once more - Ralyegh appears to have some sort of psychic potential, though not through telekinesis, but through mental communication and especially in hallucinations and illusions. His presence alone seems to eminate an eerie, unnerving aura from his body, sometimes even casting whispers of different voices in strange languages into the heads of those around him, direct contact with his gaze allows him to keep a mental connection with as many people as are looking at him, provided they remain within a semi-large radius around him while his fingers can cause hallucinations and read through memories using only physical touch. While reading memories takes time and can be interrupted, hallucinations only require that one touch to be induced, though the one affected can also break free from the illusions once they realise that what they see is not as it seems. One special interaction occurs when Ralyegh puts a hand on those without conscience - what is a hallucination to the awake will instead affect the dream/nightmare of the dreamer instead.

To sum it up in smaller form:
- Cannot get sick, poisoned, does not need to sleep or breathe, etc. - only has a need to eat meat and can only eat meat and meat-related foods. Nothing much to say about this one, just really as basic as they come.

- Is physically stronger and tougher than any normal person could train themselves to be, but is also slower than the average person. Has a healing factor, but this also depends on stamina and thus needs constant food consumption to retain completely effectiveness.

- Can create minions and appendages through the sludge underneath his skin, and can de-/re-construct his skin to make openings. This ability cannot be used to re-seal injuries, but it can be used to re-arrange his skin to avoid getting it injured in the first place. Minions do not leave a body and vaporize into black vapors instead that dissipate into the air.

- Being around Ralyegh can unnerve someone and, at worst, make them hear strange whispers, direct eye contact is needed to form a telepathic connection within a semi-large radius, illusions can be made with physical touch while reading memories requires a maintained connection of direct contact with his hands/fingers. Illusions can also be extended into influencing dreams of sleeping/unconscious targets.

Likes: Eating meat, walking about at night, making friends, playing games, swimming/diving, exploration/travelling.

Dislikes: Eating vegetables, his powers, summer heat (and summer itself), sunlight (and light in general), being on his own.

Relationships: None worth mentioning.

Other: Might write some fun facts in here from time to time. Here's one to start out with:
- Even before coming to Karma High, many nasty rumours have been spread about Ralyegh, what with his powers making him stand out like a sore thumb in public.

- Ralyegh's stench of rotting, sun-dried fish, overwhelming amounts of salt and ocean waters are the result of his sludge, which seeps through the pores of his 'skin', though this shell does mostly ward off the smell enough to minimize its radius to only being picked up on if someone stands directly near Ralyegh. God help you when he decides to remove his skin, though.. or anyone else within a large radius, for that matter, for this stench becomes MUCH worse without the skin to suppress it. Like, 'month-old corpse' levels of bad.

- Ral's unnerving aura works exactly as you might think the aura of an eldritch being works; short-term exposure can cause others do distance themselves due to constant anxiety induced by the voices and other small hallucinations caused by it, while long-term exposure can fully drive one insane and shatter their mental state. Thankfully, it's only within semi-close proximity, about a bit farther out in effective range than his aquatic scent reaches.

- Innsmouth's discoloured skin stems from it being formed from his sludge itself, which also explains how he can shift it around freely and create openings, just like how he can shift his true body around. His regeneration also stems from the sludge using nutrition gained from meat to rebuild itself, making raw flesh the most optimal food source, having turned Ral into a true carnivore in every sense of the word.

- Adding on to the above, Ralyegh actually wasn't born with any hair - instead, his black hair is actually his sludge naturally flowing through the holes and crevices where hair follicles would have sprouted, had he had them. He only has this hair, mind you- eyebrows, beards, etc. are completely out of the question unless he specifically forms them on his skin. However, just so his hair wouldn't just look like someone dumped a barrel of tar on his head, they were the very first thing he trained his shapeshifting talent on, eventually forming them into what they are now. Because of also being formed from the sludge, they are constantly damp and appear as if greasy, regardless of whether or not they were recently soaked, washed, dried, etc.

- Though he may have been born in America, Ralyegh and his mother's side of the family are actually from England and, because of this, he can switch between american and british accents easily. American is his default, with the british one coming out the more stressed out and overall anxious he is.

- Despite how it may seem, starvation does not actually 'kill' Ralyegh like how it would with normal creatures. While it is true that it makes him weaker, the longer he goes without food, the more powerful his ravenous instinct gets, eventually becoming so out of control that he would willingly eat whatever unfortunate soul ends up in his vision, the only exception being his own minions (who, at that point, would also go out of their way to quickly find a food source for Ralyegh as to stop him from rampaging). This takes a large amount of time though (about two whole month without ever eating), so ravenous rampages are about as rare as they can be.

House: While it is true that Ralyegh has an extent of super strength and endurance/durability, his limited telepathy and minion manifesting would nudge him more into the House of Siren.

 

[Gold The Dragonite]

If Arielle is accepted, would it be okay if Omar develops a crush on her?

Yeah, I don't have any issues with that

 

[Banan-chan]

I might return with a new character

 

[Cryronn the Mudkip]

@Gold The Dragonite all three accepted! Just make sure to give me a house for Arielle

@DevVoid accepted! He's really cool, and he feels super lovecraftian, if that's the vibe you were going for!

 

[EvasiveEevee]

Are there any limits to how many characters can be in one house? I’d also like to join.

Spoiler: Iori

Name: Iori Akiyama

Age: 16

Gender/Pronouns: she/her (female)

Sexuality: demisexual

Height: 5’8”

Appearance (pictures can also be used): She has light pink hair that fades into red at the bottom. Her eyes are light blue and she has tanned skin.

Personality: Iori is energetic and fun-loving, with a taste for the romantic. She often feels obligated to keep morale up, and although she’s almost always smiling, she’s not always happy when she smiles. She has no problems with expressing excitement or wonder, or any other manner of positive emotions, but showing anger and sadness is far more difficult for her.

Backstory/History: While her father was always fretting over the possibilities of the future to the point of being debilitatingly indecisive, her mother was the one who taught her how to live life. As her mother’s health declined, Iori found herself becoming more like her father, but her mother urged her to remain carefree and to see the bright sides of life that her father was too stuck in his own thoughts to notice. After her mother’s death, her father became more cynical of the world around him, along with becoming more critical and demeaning towards Iori. Iori developed a tendency to smile through the tears and shove down all of her negative emotions, for the sake of appearing as usual to others. It worked, but she’s never felt truly understood ever since.

Powers:

Thread of Fate: an inherited power from her father’s side that allows her to ‘see’ threads that connect people, objects, etc. (for example, she can see red strings of fate, and even attacks that come at her will have a type of fuse that she can visualize, allowing her to see the attack’s path before it happens). She can often get overwhelmed by hectic environments if she’s not filtering out the strings from her vision, with so many strings crisscrossing.

Brush with the Past: when she touches an object or a person, she has a chance to have a vision of that object or person’s past or future (think PMD Explorers Dimensional Scream). Since she is unable to control her body while she has the vision, this is a relatively useless ability on an active battlefield.

Likes: chatting with others, enjoying life, love that transcends fate

Dislikes: worrying (and by extension eternal worrywarts), determinism, being by-the-book

Relationships: her father (Daiki Akiyama, believes him to be overprotective), her mother (Tsumugi Shimizu, idolizes her (but she is dead))

Other: She finds Sleeping Dogs to be adorable, but can’t bring herself to approach them because she doesn’t want to disturb their slumber.

House: Siren (I think?)
