Super School- full

Welcome to Cloud Metro (unless I can think of a better name) where about half of the population is born with special powers. They live among the humans either as super heroes or villains and the world and culture are built around this. There are services that cater to each side as well as the regular humans, including the most prestigious school, Stratous Magus. Our story will take place here.

All those born with powers are sent here. At this school, they learn about their powers, how to use them, and the history of both heroes and villains. Because there, there is no discrimination to one side. No need to only garner heroes. This is a choice all youth must make once they graduate and the school offers as much as it can to make the choice. It is a school of no judgement. All students are required to take at least one course in both villainy and one in heroics. Other that, schedules are picked according to choice minus a few core classes per semester.

Whether you have a path set out you want to follow, or no idea as to the future, enter this school and figure it out. (Or help teach? I'll leave the positions ya'll want open)

Rules/Requirements
•I'm aiming for at least 3 line long posts. It's okay to go small sometimes, but be literate. I am liable to write a couple paragraphs at least some of the time.
•Romance is okay and encouraged.
•Stick around. Seriously!!!
•Activity: I'm liable to post every day-once a week if this is good. I will not discriminate if you cannot get on often so long as I'm aware you will be slow. I'd rather this rp last a long time than go fast and die young.
•there is a profile skeleton though don't feel restricted by it
•RP is started!!! Stratous Magus

Facts
•Stratous Magus will likely be set up as a high school, though if everyone wants to do college, I'm for it.
•Cloud Metro is a world that seems always to have had heroes and villians, both have followings and are catered to in the outside world. The game is to keep things in balance not destroy one side or the other (though they may say they plan to do so). I wouldn't be surprised if there were some sort of council that oversees the supers and makes sure they do not overly disrupt the balance.
•So keep this world in mind with your character back story.

Characters:

SPOILERX

Name: Tarja Järvinin
Age: 18
Appearance: 5'11", pale, slender, but in a more muscular-fit sort of way. She had blonde hair that is straight and falls to mid-back. It is almost always tied in a neat ponytail. Her eyes are blue and her clothing style would be between peppy and jock. She shows off, but won't be unpractical and girly past wearing makeup and keeping her hair in order.
Powers: She is a healer. She can absorb pain into herself without incurring injury on herself, though there is a limit to how much she can do how often before exhausting her power.
Personality: She's sour, entitled, competitive and passionate. She does everything all out--both attacking and defending. She marches to her own beat and woe to anyone who tries to tell her no. In order to get what she wants, she will lie and manipulate, but she can also be selfless and compassionate. People do matter to her.
Bio: Parents are both heroes. She's her own thing and though they've always pressure her to choose that path, especially with her healing power, she has yet to decide what she really wants to do.

Name: Tumaini Naja (feel free to give him nicknames)
Age: 16
Appearance: Slender. 5'10". His skin is bronzed and he has very little muscle tone. He has red hair that varies between light and dark tones. The bangs are in his eyes and the layers in his hair vary between ear and chin length. His eyes are golden and shaped more like almonds.
Power: He creates poison in his mouth and can spit it or otherwise find a way to poison someone. Enough of it can be lethal. This also makes him immune (or perhaps highly resistant) to consuming poisons. It's also noted that his tears are poisonous.
Facts: Based on a red spitting cobra. He is cold blooded.
Personality: He's gentle, but distrusting. He will avoid close ties because he doesn't think anyone wants to be his friend, or that he should offer himself up to be hurt. Though he's lonesome, he's used to it. He's prefers to be out in the sun more than anywhere else. Considers himself to be pathetic and weak.
Bio: His father is a villain and his mother is a regular human. He was raised by his mother and has only the vaguest memory of his father. There was no love lost between them when he left, but she insists he use's his father's last name. He's never tried to find his father using the knowledge though.

Quote:

Name: Rosemary Hunter
Age: 15
Appearance: http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb2...gond4iows1.jpg
Power: Ability to communicate with animals, enhanced senses and reflexes, empathy.
Facts: She doesn't have full control over her powers, her empathy especially acts up at inopportune times.
Bio: Rosemary was abandoned as a baby, and taken in by a lone wolf who cared for her until she was about ten years old, at which point she was taken in by an orphanage.
Personality: Shy and quiet, Rosemary is usually nervous around people because her empathy acts up and tells her more than she ever needs to know. She is more comfortable around animals than people, and can often be found reading or daydreaming in the woods somewhere.

http://www.menewsha.com/forum/pictur...ictureid=60119

Name: Crispin Racemus
Age: 17
Appearance: 6' tall, slightly muscular medium build, auburn hair, hazel eyes, lightly tan/ruddy complexion, expressive face, goofy smile. He isn't handsome or sexy, but is more 'cute as a button.' He tends to dress casually.
Power: Music. Similar to the magic a siren or a bard uses, Crispin's superpower is to charm, frighten, or put to sleep others by playing a musical instrument, the effect depending on the type of tune he plays. (The downside obviously being loss of the instrument). He is only a mediocre singer (which is why that doesn't work for him), but he is proficient with piano, guitar, and flute.
Other skills: He's into sports and is good at basketball, baseball, and boxing, although he'll watch pretty much any competition. As such, he is strong and quick on his feet (reaction time, not running), just not supernaturally so, but like your average human athlete. (Wasn't sure what you meant by facts, so I replaced it with this)
Bio: Crispin grew up in a large family with four brothers and a little sister. Being in the middle, he often felt overlooked. He was also the most sensitive and bookish of the boys, so he got picked on and felt like his father disapproved of him. So he tried to set aside his love of books and music to pursue sports, and for a time he was able to grow closer to his father this way. When his strange ability with music finally came to light, he was afraid at first that this would just make him an outsider in his family more than ever, but his parents were delighted to have a specially gifted child. Being sent off to Stratous Magus school was the best thing that could ever happen to him as he was finally able to be himself without worry. He will probably end up as a hero due to his disposition, but could be manipulated into the wrong crowd.
Personality: At his very core, he is a people-pleaser to the extreme. He is quick to do almost anything suggested to him and will do almost anything to make others happy. It is on very rare occasion that he'll stand up for himself if he feels he's being used and walked all over. He would really love to be everyone's friend, even though he knows that it is probably not possible. Most of the time he is very easy-going, and on occasion a little bashful. He is also very open minded. The only real personal boundary he draws is he will not do anything that would hurt another person (outside of sports, of course), and seeing others hurt will sometimes bring out his temper (otherwise, as said, he's rather mellow and patient), though he often acts as a peacemaker.

http://www.menewsha.com/forum/pictur...ictureid=60120

Name: Marcela Escontrias
Age: 16
Appearance: She is 5'6" tall and has a curvy yet athletic build. She has black hair that she keeps short, usually just above shoulder length, dark blue eyes, and tanned skin. She tends to dress in a rumpled, lazy fashion, as she just does not care, but she does have a fondness for nail polish.
Power: Shape-shifter. She has the ability to take the form of various animals, although her favorite is that of a large black wolf. As an animal, she has increased strength, speed, and healing factor. However, as a human, she might as well just be a normal human. She is limited to only one shift per day, so whatever she changes to, she's stuck as for 24 hours as it still takes too much energy from her to shift more often. This means if she shifts into a human, well, she's stuck as a squishy human for those 24 hours, so that is a downside. Also, as an animal she is unable to speak and is nearly impossible to reason with.
Bio: Marcela is the daughter of a well-known hero who had the same power and worked as part of a team. However, when she was still a small child, he died in a fight against some villains, and her mother completely fell apart emotionally and spiraled into a deep depression that she never recovered from. This left the little girl essentially alone until she became old enough to attend the school. All of her hero teachers hold high hopes for her joining their side like her father, but she is most likely going to disappoint them. The way she saw it, her father died for an ungrateful public and it was the heroes on his team that let him down. At first she was bitter, but eventually she moved on to what she sees as a more practical way to view life. Now she lives only for herself, and while she is very social, she lets no one close. After all, others are not worth living for - they don't appreciate your sacrifices, they betray your trust, and growing attached to another only means pain in the end.
Personality: She is very laid back most of the time, or possibly it is better to say she is jaded and just does not care, and views life as being something just to be survived and enjoyed while she can. The weak are unable to do this, and she views this as not her problem - every man for himself. She throws herself into whatever pleasurable activities she can find, regardless of the morality or legality of it, so she tends to become flirty and grabby and also drinks alcohol despite being underage. She doesn't go out of her way to intentionally harm anyone, however, as she does not find causing pain to be enjoyable, but she doesn't feel guilty about hurting anyone that gets in her way. After all, it's their own fault, they should have known better. So in a way, while she doesn't fit into the hero side of things, she is more of a chaotic neutral than actually a villain, unless someone can convince her that would be a fun way to go.

http://www.menewsha.com/forum/pictur...ictureid=60121

Name: Jenny Geller
Age: 14
Appearance: Jenny stands at 5'1" tall and has a very slim build. She has curly brunette hair, brown eyes, and fair skin and she wears glasses. She tends to dress very neatly in almost professional or school uniform style, usually with a button up shirt and skirt, and sometimes with a sweater or sweater vest. She is definitely not current in style, but at least tries to look nice.
Power: Super Genius. While not actually a super power, as such is attainable in your normal humans (well, normal and normal...), her parents thought it fitting to send her to this school anyway as she could be very useful behind the scenes. (After all, Tony Stark is nothing more than a genius with a ton of money to burn). She has an eidetic memory and can speed read, which means she picks up new information very quickly and is able to perfectly recite it back. However, her fantastic memory only applies to what is read, as sometimes spoken information just goes in one ear and out the other. She also has a gift for mathematics and logical reasoning and computers. (NOTE: I am not a super genius myself. So, when needed, I will either look up information or just spit out complete BS off the top of my head :P lol.)
Bio: Jenny is the daughter of two heroes who work behind the scenes for a team, helping to plan and lead them in the right direction and not taking part in any dangerous activities themselves most of the time. Her father is a super genius and her mother is an empath, although Jenny only takes after her father. As stated, they decided to send her to the school at quite a young age as they thought it would do her some good to learn to socialize with others instead of just burying herself in self-study as she had been doing and they are very proud of her.
Personality: She is highly intelligent, but socially awkward. She wants to be liked and have friends, yet she is shy and quiet and often lost in her own world. She tends to be mellow most of the time and can even seem optimistic, although when emotions do hit her, they hit hard and she doesn't always understand how to handle them, and sometimes cannot even correctly label what it is she is feeling. While she does spend a lot of time reading nonfiction, she also as a love for science fiction. She also tends to get excited over odd things.

Quote:

Name: Calcifer Night
Age: 16
Appearance: https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com...0c5421fc76.png
Calcifer stands at about 5'9" with a slim but muscular build, messy black hair and startlingly blue eyes. He wears what amounts to a traditional Japanese school uniform, except modified to look rumpled and torn, and it's been dyed black.
Power: Nightmare Syndrome: Calcifer's ability isn't very flashy; in fact, most people can't even tell he's using it. What it breaks down to is that Calcifer can enter his target's mind, find their deepest, darkest fears, and projects them so that the person actually experiences them first hand. The target can see, hear, taste, smell and feel everything as if it were really happening, but to anyone watching it just looks like they're having some sort of fit. This ability comes with a huge price, as it can drive the target insane and even cause death if used too long. It takes quite a lot out of Calcifer to use it, and he usually ends up in bed for at least 12 hours after using it.
Facts: Calcifer, called Cal for short, Named his ability after the first time he used it. He remembers every victim, and often relives their fears in his own nightmares. As a result, he doesn't sleep much.
Bio: The child of a forbidden tryst, Cal's mother was a villain and his father a well-known hero. When he was born, his mother went into shock from blood loss and didn't live. He was delivered to his father, who tried raising the boy to be good. It may have worked, except that Calcifer woke up one night when he was ten after a terrible nightmare. When he went to his father for comfort, he saw that his nightmare had been real: He had used some terrible power and caused his father to have a heart attack and die in the middle of the night. He was sent to a boarding school after that, but he became too much trouble for them to handle and they sent him to Stratous Magus.
Personality: Calcifer is a typical jaded, bad-boy type. He seldom follows the rules and doesn't seem to care much about anyone, least of all himself. He puts himself into dangerous situations on a regular basis, gets arrested for tagging and underage drinking at least once a week, and generally frightens younger or more sensitive students with his brooding attitude. Even the most optimistic hero teachers have given up hope that he'll become a hero, but the villain teachers don't seem to have much luck swaying him, either. On the inside, Calcifer is incredibly sensitive and is hurting a lot over the things he's done. He closes himself off to avoid the pain, and his misdemeanors come from the idea that if he's going to be bad, he might as well do it right. He hasn't actually decided his alliance yet, but even he is convinced that he's most likely to become a villain.

Quote:

Name: Avaline (Ava) White
Age: 14
Appearance: Ava is short for her age at 4”10 (though if you ask her, she’ll proudly state that she is 4’11 or even 5”). She definitely looks younger than she is. She has a round face with chubby cheeks and dotted with light freckles, and she isn’t the skinniest girl in the world. Avaline has cotton candy pink hair with straight bangs across her forehead. She usually keeps her hair in low pigtails. Her eyes are a light blue with a thick, dark limbal ring. Ava likes to wear lots of lacey, fluffy, and pretty dresses. Or really anything that could be described as cute. She typically likes to walk around in just socks, and almost never wears shoes. Her eyebrows are little circles.
Power: Ava is able to pass through solid objects (intangibility) and she also has heightened speed. The two together do often create some interesting moments to say the least.
Facts: Despite Ava’s happy, bubbly personality, she is a compulsive liar. She barely thinks about it anymore, and doesn’t mean any harm most of the time, but it just comes out of her mouth before she can even think.
Bio: Ava came from a family of villains, though her mother ended up working for the heroes multiple times in her life. She comes from a family with four other children, with Ava being the fifth and youngest of them all. She was often babied at home and her brothers and sister were all protective of her. Most graduated from Stratous Magus, except for two, the twins who are two years older than Ava and posses no powers whatsoever. Her parents don’t really care whether their children end up as heroes or villains, and so far there has been a mixture. Avaline herself doesn’t even quite know what she wants.
Personality: Ava is almost exactly how you would expect the baby of a family to be; happy, bubbly and cute. She enjoys playing games with others, and will usually jump from person to person until she can find someone to spend time with. She likes to be active for most of the day, but is also one of the first students asleep. She is a heavy sleeper and if she doesn’t get enough sleep, she’ll be very grumpy and snappish for the rest of the day. She’s not exactly a morning person either and will be pouty for the first few hours that she is up. Ava doesn’t quite understand subtle language, or body language, so when people want her to do something they have to be more or less straightforward. This also makes it hard when people want her to leave them alone.

Name: Oliver Moon
Age: 16
Appearance: Oliver has messy light blonde hair that doesn’t exactly have any sort of specific cut to it. It’s all over the place and often covers his eyes. He has warm chocolate brown eyes that are slightly downturned. He wears circular, black-rimmed glasses most of the time, but sometimes wears contacts instead. His skin is extremely pale and he burns very easily and very badly. He looks very skinny and frail, but typically wear bulky sweaters and shirts. He likes to be warm when he’s dressing.
Power: Invisibility and has slowly started developing the power of taking away people senses either permanently or just for a bit.
Facts: He doesn’t like people, who he isn’t close with, calling him by nicknames. It makes him uncomfortable. However, because of his dislike for confrontation he would do or say anything if someone does. His nicknames are Ollie or just Ol.
Bio: Oliver’s parents were both heroes, but Oliver never saw them as that. Oliver developed his powers late in life, invisibility being the first to come to him at age ten. Because of this, he was seen as a disappointment to his parents, who were topnotch heroes. His father would physically abuse him, throwing punches and objects alike at Oliver. Yelling insults while he did it. Olivers mother would never touch him…in fact, she would just never acknowledge him, and she simply ignored him. When Oliver was about ten, just before his powers started developing, he was kidnapped. Most of his memories of what happened while he was held captive are mostly kept in the far back of his mind, hidden from himself. All he remembers is that he was constantly hurt, and that when he was found four and a half years later, it turned out that his kidnapper was a hero. After that, he was brought into special-services that took care of children, and the people there decided it was best that he went to Stratous Magus after spending a year in the hospital. Therefore, despite being 16, it is his first year. He also met some people who he ended up trusting a lot at these special services, including a woman, Mara, who he considers like an older sister. She took care of him for the most part when he was rescued.
Because of his past, he has trouble trusting people in general, but mainly heroes. He, ironically, feels safer with villains.
Personality: Oliver is quiet and withdrawn from people. He tends to find a person or two around him that he can feel comfortable around and then stick to them all day. He doesn’t like being in crowds, or being forced to talk to strangers. He’s a big crybaby who gets scared by the littlest noises, but has a strong instinct to at least try to protect people who are younger than him. He typically spends most of his time alone at the moment, considering he hasn’t found anyone he feels truly safe and comfortable around. He’s a very cuddly person with his friends, and can be surprisingly talkative-albeit in a low, soft voice-when in private.

Hmm... interesting :) I've done a magic school setting once before that was kind of fun. I like the whole nonjudgmental thing going on, though I can see some future heroes and future villains butting heads sometimes (and the teenage hormones wouldn't help much, either! haha XD). I'll keep this in mind in case enough come around to pull off a group roleplay.

oh yeah, I'm sure some heads will butt especially with young students. Hopefully this will get some interest. >.<

I hope so, too. Oh man, could you see it, though? XD "My dad could beat up your dad!" "Nuh-uh!" "Yeah-huh! He did it just last week! :P " ...five year olds, lol.

And I figure the teachers have to be both ex-villain and ex-hero or some such so rivalry's much? And then there are the clueless kids who have no idea which path they want and just wander around.

This seems rather interesting. Wolfie is always up for a good superhero/villain roleplay.

yay!
I need to put in my profile skeleton probably and let people start making their characters, huh? I'll post mine too.

Yes! Wolfie will make her character(s) tomorrow, since it's late now.

haha. I'm traveling tomorrow so I'll probably get stuff typed up while I'm in the car and post it later. I have half formed ideas for two characters so I just need to put it in words.
I hope we can get one or two more people in this and then we'll be gold.

YAY a third person! :D Once you get your stuff posted up, I'll start pondering characters, too :)

Cool cool. Hopefully the fam won't demand all my time tomorrow.

I have my profiles written up (in a notebook) but after this weekend, yeah. I should be back home. I can type up my two. I've got a male and female. All they're missing is names.

Wolfie has a small pool of staple names that she uses consistently, but every once in a while she'll use a different one for a character that doesn't seem to fit with the others.

I like to use babynames.com for human names :) There's an advanced search where you can search by gender, nationality, and meaning.

Here's one for starters. I'll bring in one or two more once I see what the group is shaping up to be like, kind of try to fill in holes and keep from too many similar characters and such.

http://www.menewsha.com/forum/pictur...ictureid=60119

I most definitely try not to reuse names. That is way, way too confusing.

I used facts as an other sort of section. You can use it or not. I just had things for one character that needed to be put somewhere and figured others might also have that happen.

Anyway, I got my profiles up and puts ya'lls up front too. I think I'll wait a little longer for others to join, but otherwise, we should have enough here to do something between us three.

Oh goodness, hahaha... I can see that Tarja is going to have Crispin wrapped around her little finger! lol XD

Perhaps. Perhaps not. ^_^ you never know what might happen in an rp.

Cool, this is really shaping up! Wolfie is going to create a male character soon.

Kat - Oh, I know, that's just the first impression I got and I fell over in giggles XD

http://www.menewsha.com/forum/pictur...ictureid=60120

http://www.menewsha.com/forum/pictur...ictureid=60121

More characters! I'll add them to the front.

I'll probably keep to two mains, but I'll have side characters here and there I don't feel the need to make a profile for unless they become main. Because that totally happens sometimes....

Okay! *Cracks knuckles* Ow! *Mumbles swear words about knuckles*
