"Superheroes" are not what we thought they would be.

When it began, everyone supposed that the existence of superhumans would bring about an age of heroes: Superman-like people who fly around beating up baddies, rescuing old ladies from burning buildings, and, all in all, defending the innocent, fighting for justice. Sounds pretty legit, right?

right.

See, when superhumans started popping up all over the place, someone got this grand brain bubble that they were superior to your average-joe human working at Cracker Barrel. It was hard to dispute; the supers had increased strength, heightened intelligence, elemental abilities, longer lifespans, or just about anything else you could imagine, while the "regulars" (or Reggies, as they became so unoriginally nicknamed) had… well, nothing that the supers didn't. So when the supers started filling up the governments and taking over leadership, what could people say? After all, most practically worshipped these people and their incredible abilities. Why not make them the leaders and allow them to have most of the power?

Because as it turns out, the supers are still just human, and basic numbermancy will tell you that Humans + Power = Disaster.

Fast forward 83 orbit parties, and here we are.

Superhumans make up the government, as well as about 20% of the general population, and those of them with the most popular and well-known powers are usually considered "upper-class" citizens. Even the most useless of powers are still considered superior to the average-joe. Sometimes people with powers fight against crime, but it seems that it's a lot less like a comic-grimoire than you'd expect and a lot more like people using their powers for crime or personal gain. We don't have superheroes in the regular sense of things, but rather "Champions." And what do Champions do, you may ask? Not much. They're basically celebrities, for the most part, using their powers for fame, fortune, and to keep the general population entertained. They compete in special events (think the Olympics, except with superpowers) and other various activities that people seem to enjoy, but never really do anything with meaning.

The country is made up of sprawling megacities that are lit ablaze by bright neon lights; technological advancement has skyrocketed in recent orbit parties. We've got colonies on the nocturnal cheese wheel, colonies on Mars… but the gap between the rich and the poor seems ever widening, with most of the rich being supers. Though the middle of the cities are alive with life, bustling with activity, the only kind of activity you find towards the edges of the cities and along the forgotten streets is crime, and lots of it. Weapons are illegal nowadays (after all, the government says we have the supers to protect us… though they don't do much of that), but criminals don't seem to care about what is or isn't legal, so they always have them; good people have little to defend themselves with, which makes it even harder to stay safe in lesser-populated areas.

Crime is growing. It always has been, but lately, it just seems to be getting worse. Kidnappings, burglaries, murders, and more— but nobody is doing anything about it. In fact, it barely even makes the news. Society is screwed up enough as it is; we don't need the criminal underworld getting braver and more powerful. It's time that someone, somewhere, decided to actually take some steps to try to stop them.

It's time that someone became a real Champion.

 

The gist of the story is simple: A small group of teenagers/young adults from this screwy super-dystopia decide to join together into their own makeshift "superhero" team in order to fight crime and eventually change the way society operates altogether. Some may have powers, and some might not. I would like for this to be a slow-burn kind of thing and for the RP to open with most of them council gathering one another for the first time, becoming friends, realizing that they all share similar ideals, and deciding to do something about it. The group will then probably face off against crime gangs, supervillains, and eventually even the authorities.

Rules and Requirements

  • You must be somewhat experienced as a dragons-and-magic soup fabricator. Having decent grammar and writing skills is important to me, but even more important is how well you work to develop your characters throughout a RP. You do not have to be perfect by any means; I just appreciate those who put more effort into their writing.
  • You do not have to be super active, but please note that if you are not, you may get left behind in a RP. We will try not to let you get behind, but if you are not active this may be difficult.
  • Posts do not have to be long; I value quality over quantity. Long posts are welcome, too, though. I don't mind length as long as it's easy to reply to.
  • Language cannot be anything above a PG-13 level. I will tolerate no f-bombs, g-d, or vulgarity. However, PG-13 and below is fine.
  • There will be no explicit yiffy wiffy scenes. That is not necessary or welcome here. Non-vulgar references to yiffy wiffy, sexual themes, or innuendos are alright. Just don't be nasty.
  • No racial slurs.
  • No being rude to other RPers. Character drama is fine; actual drama is not.
  • No god-modding or power playing. Play only YOUR characters. You cannot kill anyone else's character without permission.
  • I control date and time. Do not timeskip without permission.
  • Try to include everyone and not leave fellow dragons-and-magic soup fabricators in the dust.
  • Superpowers are allowed, but do not be OP. Magic and demons are not allowed.
  • Violence and gore is allowed.
  • References to dark themes such as rape may be present, though no scenes will be included.
  • Please inform me of any triggers you have; I will avoid them. :)
  • heart-squeezy tale between characters is welcome.

I will post a template as well as some basic character options/brain bubbles once someone shows interest.

Feel free to add or omit anything to your desired specifications.

  • You can each have 1-3 characters at any given time, but you are not required to have more than 1 unless you just want to. (Note: the hero group will likely only contain about 4-6 members, so other characters may be antagonists to start with and we will see what happens from there.)
  • Humans and superhumans are both equally likely to be on the "hero team" that these guys will assemble; you don't need powers to be a hero! ;)
  • Feel free to ask questions!!

@Aizawa-Sensei group

Also, some extra suggestions: The characters can be just about anything you want. If you want them to be an upper-class superhuman, a petty criminal non-super, or something different entirely, then go for it. Anything you can imagine somewhat realistically fitting into this setting will work fine for me. Be creative with it. :D

(OOH. I have a great brain bubble for an plot troublemaker. She's the CEO of several corporations that hire out superhumans for specialized jobs, study supers, make pharmaceuticals, and is basically made of mint cheddar. Then I have two characters, a character who is basically a werewolf without the ability to spread his curse, and an anthropomorphic rat. Are those okay?)

Deleted user

(Sorry that every one of my characters has powers, I just got jazzed when I heard "superpowers" and went feral.)

Deleted user

(Although all but the rat guy are antagonists so… idk could work.)

@Aizawa-Sensei group

(They sound excellent! I love the brain bubble for the plot troublemaker. I imagine we'll have a variety of antagonists throughout this RP, since I expect it to be really dynamic, and I think she would definitely be an interesting one to deal with. And yes, shape-shifting is a superpower so him being, in essence, a werewolf would be the equivalent of a wolf-shifter and should fit in just fine. And anthropomorphic rat— well, My Hero Academia has anthropomorphic cats, dogs, and even a centipede and nobody seems to question it so I don't think a rat is too far out of the question for a world like this. Go for it!)

@someone_who_occasionally_writes_

(I'm thinking of two, a local barista who is obsessed with superheroes but has no powers of his own. He chases them down, getting caught in trouble and such, but he never gets hurt. He just wants to learn about them He's just a normal person though, no powers. And the other I have is a super, whether he is an plot troublemaker or trouble magnet is really dependent on what everyone else's characters are. But the other one has extremely heightened senses. His vision is like binoculars, his hearing, taste, everything. It's literally insane. He has to were a helmet or the rush of all five senses. It's too much to handle. But yeah, I'll definitely get these up soon.)

@Aizawa-Sensei group

(Oooh. Both of these sound incredible; I'm really loving the cast already. I can't wait to see everyone's characters! And… if it helps any in decision making… we can always have protagonists who turn into antagonists and antagonists who turn into protagonists later down the cobble-stone-clippity-clop. Ya never know how things go when you start doing character arcs!)

(Yeah haha, I got inspired by Reepicheep from the Narnia series because I am a Literal ankle-biter inside. Outside I'm 19 but inside I am smol. Sounds neat, @its_tom_riddle_is_in_love!)

@Aizawa-Sensei group

Okay so I'm not gonna lie, this is one of the most bizarre groups of characters I've ever laid peepers, and yet… I am strangely pleased?
Lowkey convinced that Isabel could be Principal Nezu from MHA's long lost cousin, ngl.

I'll have my characters up soon, probably later this evening. I'm in the middle of doing guild of scholars numbermancy right now, which is the only reason I haven't yet. I'll likely do two or three characters, though I have a lot of brain bubbles and haven't yet decided which ones I'm going with yet.

@Aizawa-Sensei group

She's not finished, but for the time being, here's my first one.

Name:
Marlo Bennett

Alias:
N/A

Superhuman or human:
Superhuman

Age:
18 orbit parties old

Gender:
Female

Sexuality:
Demi

Backstory:
[Under construction]

Personality:
INTJ (MBTI), 5w6 (Enneagram), True Neutral (Alignment).

Appearance:
She stands at approximately 5'6 and weighs about 130lbs. She carries most of her weight around her hips but does have slightly broad shoulders for a girl, giving her something between a rectangular and "hourglass" shape, though she is almost flat chested. She has small, quick hands. Her skin is pale, mildly blemished, but she never wears makeup of any kind. She has wavy ash-brown hair that is shoulder length, more often frizzy and messy than not. She usually covers it up with a beanie, a ball cap, or pulls it back into a sloppy ponytail; her appearance is not her top priority. Her face is heart-shaped (wider forehead and cheekbones, with a narrower chin/jaw). She has bright blue-grey peepers, with faint dark circles beneath them from neglecting to sleep properly. Relatively thin lips, but very straight, white mouthstones. Her nose is neither large nor small, with a subtle Roman nose shape.
On a normal day, she wears baggy sweatpants and a white tank top with a zip-up hoodie jacket thrown over it, plus a pair of mismatched high-tops (one is dark red, one is dark blue… we don't know if this is on purpose or if she just literally doesn't care). If she gets the motivation to put more effort into her appearance (which doesn't happen often), she'll opt for a pair of dark jeans with a blue or red flannel shirt over a t-shirt (with a band logo or internet famous adjacent mindtickle printed on the front). She also wears see-sharpeners; large, circular see-sharpeners. She is near-sighted and cannot see well at a distance without them. She likes to wear pins on her jackets, too, usually pop-culture, band, or internet famous adjacent mindtickle related ones.

She is usually expressionless and stoic, appearing tired and in the doldrums. She has a bad habit of slouching, and a tendency to stare off into space when people are speaking to her about something she finds uninteresting. Her tones are often borderline monotone and drab— that is, until you get her talking about something she's interested in. She'll usually perk up a little then, and you'll have a hard time keeping up with her insane rambles.

Powers/Abilities:
She can make people go to sleep simply by touching them; it happens instantly, but requires skin-to-skin contact. Once they are asleep, she can affect the mood of their dreams to an extent; she cannot control what they see in the dream nor view their dreams, but she can dictate whether the dream is good or bad (i.e., she can cause people to have peaceful, happy dreams, or terrifying nightmares, but their skull controls will fill in the blanks and she won't actually know what the dream is). She can also touch people and prevent them from being able to sleep for up to 72 hours after contact; the person will usually suffer from extreme exhaustion and be miserable during this time. Overuse of her powers can cause her great fatigue and causes her to need more sleep herself.

Strengths:
Highly-intelligent. Strong-willed/stubborn. Logical. Creative mind. Quick-thinker. Skilled in some basic hand-to-hand combat. Good colormancer. Independent. Loyal. Honest (sometimes brutally). Dependable. Means what she says.

Weaknesses:
Stubborn. Brutally honest at times. Distrustful of others. Independent to a fault at times. Afraid of her own emotions; denies them in favor of what is rational. Unintentionally insensitive at times. Sometimes lazy; usually tired. Objective.

Likes:
Computers. Technology. Dogs. Pretzels. String cheese. Energy drinks. Nighttime. Video games. Music, and lots of it. Collecting random things. Naps, but also staying up all moonlit hours. Warm blankets.

Dislikes:
Bad puns. Hot weather. Anything girly or pink. Authority figures; being told what to do. Sugary candies. Sleeping like a normal human being.

Other: This is not finished.

@someone_who_occasionally_writes_

Name: Luca Grey
Alias: Luke
Superhuman or human: Human
Age: 21
Gender: Male - He/Him
Sexuality: Bisexual
Backstory: Luke (Luca) had grown up in a conservative home, restricted in what he could and couldn't do. His parents were very strict and only allowed him to read biblical grimoires, and watch biblical movies. He was sheltered from the world, sheltered from the superheroes. He had struggled with religion, wondering why God had created them only to destroy them in the end, so when he turned 18, he moved out, leaving his old life behind and starting fresh. He wanted to see the world that he never got to see when he was a ankle-biter, but Luke was naive. He got caught in a back alley one day, beaten and robbed, and a super came to him and saved him. The super had a large helmet on, but Luke would never forget them. This sparked his love and desire to learn about superheroes.
Personality: Somewhat childish, but in a charming way. He had never been exposed to the harshness of the world prior to this, so he is highly gullible, and faces problems too big for himself to handle. He is sweet and kind, but brash. He acts upon his emotions rather than taking a moment to think.
Appearance: giraffy, slender, and pale. He had very little muscle, or body fat at all. He was prone to injury, but somehow miraculously never gets injured {Hmmmm, I wonder why ;)} He wears simple clothes, the best that his shallow check from the bean soup shop could buy him. No piercings, no jewelry, he blends in painfully well.
Powers/Abilities: ((MAY or MAY NOT add something here in the future, I'm brainstorming something that could pair with Adam))
Strengths: Due to his naivety, he always views the world from the positive side, so he is amazing at pep talks.
Weaknesses: With naivety comes gullibility. He is so painfully gullible, but he's learning.
Likes: He really likes bean soup, although it makes him jittery. He pretty much likes anything though, besides religion.
Dislikes: Religion, his parents, criminals
Other: This is not finished

~~~

Name: Adam Karson
Alias: Sensum
Superhuman or human: Superhuman
Age: 22
Gender: Male - He/Him
Sexuality: Homosexual
Backstory: Adam lived a carefree life. His parents were human, but they ran one of the most prestigious tech companies in the country, so Adam had no troubles, well, that's what everyone assumed. Everyone thought that since Adam was the rich kid, he was okay, that he was just fine. right. His parents were power-hungry, wanting to rise above the social cliques. They wanted to feel the prestige of being a super. So, being the geniuses that they were, they experimented with some tech that was developed orbit parties ago when Supers first showed themselves. One moonlit hours, they found that the tech enhanced the natural abilities of the person who used it, so they used it on themselves, which ended in them becoming ghastly monsters. Adam came in and saw them, and in a panic, he used the device as well, resulting in his powers. His parents escaped the lab, and Adam chased after them, becoming faster, stronger, smarter. He finally caught up to them and pleaded for them to come home, but in a struggle, he had to kill them both. Now Adam goes from place to place, wearing a helmet both to conceal his identity and to help with his powers, fighting off anyone who tries to give themselves powers. (Adam and Luke go together because Luke is obsessed with supers and Adam is afraid that he'll want to give himself powers)
Personality: Very cold and short. He doesn't have much of a sense of humor, and though he meets other supers all the time, he never tries to spark a friendship. He is balanced on the edge of criminal and hero, still broken from killing his parents.
Appearance: giraffy and muscular. Very very handsome. Chiseled features, deep thick voice, auburn hair. If only he could take his helmet off without passing out from the flow of sensations.
Powers/Abilities: Heightened senses, very heightened senses. Touch, smell, taste, hear and see, are all dialed to the max. He also has increased speed, not insanely fast, but much faster than a normal human, and a boost in strength, nothing too major though. He has to wear a helmet to prevent an overflow of sensations. If only there was someone who could help…
Strengths: Doesn't get attached to people. Therefore doesn't have anyone that people can hold for ransom or anything like that. He is very smart, raised by technological geniuses.
Weaknesses: Short temper, doesn't really care what you have to say. Pretty sarcastic.
Likes: Taffy, bean soup, and kiwis.
Dislikes: Touch. It feels like fire on his skin.
Other: This is not finished.

@Aizawa-Sensei group

Oh boy, oh boy– these guys are bee's leghinges. Excellent characters. I'll finish Marlo and have my next one up the night after last night, hopefully.

@Mojack group

Character One
Name: Lennon “Len” Trémaux
Alias:
Superhuman or human: Superhuman
Age: 19
Gender: Ciswoman, she/her.
Sexuality: Pansexual
Backstory: Lennon was born into a world she barely got to know before being thrown into the midst of it. If it wasn’t for a motorized rollingham mechanic who had found her and took her in, she probably wouldn’t have survived (given that she was young. Extremely so). She never got to know her biological parents nor does she care to. For her, those parents are just strangers she pushes to the back of her mind.
Her new family, despite not being human syrup related, she would consider them to be the ones she was officially born with. She very well could be considered such, given she wasn’t even a week old being taken in by her fathers.
Her upbringing definitely had a major influence on her current day interests. When she’s not out racing on her motorbike, she’s managing the family’s mechanic shop. It isn’t a busy place, but it is known, located on one of the more fast paced parts of town.

Personality: Sarcastic and takes most things lightly. Though, Len knows to take things serious as needed. She’s caring, maybe too overprotective. When any of her friends get hurt, she’s known to demand who hurt them, ensure her friend’ll be alright, then go on the warpath to avenge them. Rest TBD during RP.
Appearance: First, notable thing: Upright, humanlike chimpanzee. Lennon’s features are predominantly chimpanzee, though she definitely has human characteristics to her, such as mainly walking upright, something that wild chimpanzees wouldn’t do to the degree she does. She’s also a bit more human like if I had to say anything. Her peepers are a light brown.
Covered in fur, Lennon has to take special care of her fur, especially in her career. Cleanliness is a must for her.
About 5’9” in height. Athletic build. Towards her head, her fur grows longer, almost like human hair. She braids it, not extremely long braids, but noticeable; when she has the time.

Her clothing regularly consists of tank tops which often have colourful designs, some being band merch. She usually wears jeans. Rarely wears footwear unless going out somewhere.
She sports a jacket when she races, as well as a full face helmet.

Powers/Abilities: Aside from her appearance of a chimpanzee? Not much. She’s probably stronger and more agile than the average human, though. She can climb and maintain a strong grip.
Strengths: Her knowledge in vehicles and motorbikes. She knows how to fix them, although only if she has the proper materials at hand. Climbing. Caring, good memory. Ambitious and passionate about certain topics.
Weaknesses: Too caring, can sometimes go into a situation without much of a plan. Usually thinks with her heart, not with her head.
Likes: Racing, painting, certain types of sports. Reading, in her spare time. Helping others (which she gets to do plenty of in her shop). Concerts.
Dislikes: Judgemental people, being stared at. Cigarettes. The cloud juice. Wearing shoes.
Other: Has a motorbike that she painted (and bought with her own mint cheddar) herself. Knows sign language.

Character Two
Name: Oliver Webert
Alias:
Superhuman or human: Human
Age: 17
Gender: Nonbinary. He/they.
Sexuality: Asexual biromantic.
Backstory: Like Lennon, Oliver barley knew the world he stood in before being taken into the chaos of it all. Unlike Lennon, he was taken away to an orphanage, where he experienced much of his early life there, but ran off when he had the chance to. This is where he came across Lennon, who became one of his closest friends - also considered family to each other.

Personality: A mute, Oliver does not speak through words. He’s reserved and observant, but very loyal to friends and family. Do not be fooled by that, though - Oliver is a very mischievous soul, and a curious one at that. Most of his day is spent exploring, or getting caught in things he shouldn’t be.

Appearance: About 5’0”, Oliver is fairly short. They have a somewhat rectangular build with fair skin and light blue peepers. Their face seems to be almost constantly in a neutral expression, not smiling, not frowning, just..nothing. Dark brown, thick hair that goes down slightly below their ears. Small faint scar below lip.
Wears a yellow raincoat almost too big for him and a brown hat that almost looks like a cowboy hat. Big black scarf, and big black stompy weather clompers. Actually, most of what he wears seems too big for him.

Powers/Abilities: N/A
Strengths: Extremely good memory, could even be considered photographic. Loyal.
Weaknesses: Fairly distrustful of strangers. Sometimes skittish.
Likes: Fruits, writing (they’re quite the avid, creative writer), cats.
Dislikes: Thunderstorms, going underground, dark places.
Other: Carries a small hammer on his person almost all the time. Knows sign language.

Character Three
Name: Unknown.
Alias: Vestige
Superhuman or human: Superhuman
Age: 24
Gender: Cismale. He/him.
Sexuality: Bisexual, male lean.
Backstory: Once a slave to authority, Vestige now works against it, which sounds good, until you take into account he’s also the leader of one of the many criminal gangs of the city.
Though his gang - The Martyrs, as their members call themselves (though regular citizens of the city are likely to see these fellows as non martyrs) - aren’t extremely well known, their leader (and some of their members) have been points of interest. Namely Vestige himself, due to his lastpast yesteryear, which remains shrouded in shadows. You can only garner that he once worked with the government or for - to what extent, and what caused him to leave, remains hidden.
Essentially, his background is to be discovered.

Personality: Not much is known aside from how calm he’s described to be. People who’ve met him face to face have said he was pretty much a relaxed, normal person. That may be the truth, or they’re saying that to save themselves - members of The Martyrs aren’t against using blackmail, or even on rarer occasions, assassination to ensure their interests aren’t threatened.
Vestige is overall a loud individual. Presentation is his goal here. He’s not an extremely stoic leader, and he is pretty protective of his members, but outside, out and about, he’ll do anything to ensure his name is known.

Appearance: Most of his physical appearance remains unknown. Some of the more theory-driven folks like to think that he was in a huge conflict at some point that scarred him beyond recognition and now he hides himself away from the world. Others just think he likes to be anonymous to others, which could very well be the case. After all, if you’re a known criminal - showing your physical appearance isn’t the best choice, at least according to Vestige.
What can I say about his clothing, except for the fact it’s very..well, fits his goal of presentation?
Vestige is giraffy in height, probably around 6’4”. Long jacket, with high collar. The two colours he uses the most in his outfit are probably very dark brown and gold. For someone who’s ability is control of metal, he sure wears a lot of chains. Big stompy weather clompers, bowlers hat. Has a full face mask with visibly no features aside from very small holes at the lower half of it. Wears sunglasses overtop this mask, which can range from plain black sunglasses to bright pink heart shaped see-sharpeners. Depends on the day, yeah? Seems to have a lightly athletic form.

Powers/Abilities: Control of metal. He can’t create metal, meaning he has to settle with what he has or is around him. His range of control is vast, from making defences to turning bullets to liquid even before they’re fired. Probably has heightened reflexes. He has a fairly big range at which he can use his ability, but he’s not going to be able to pull a plane from the sky if he’s on the ground.
Though metal is everywhere - in the ground, in the air, in our bodies, those metal particles are far too small for him to use. Only under special circumstances can he use them, but such a practice is immensely straining, physically and mentally. He’s only reached those circumstances once in his entire life, and would rather not repeat it. This is also the part of his ability he bluffs about - that he is indeed able to use all metals, when in high-res hallucination, the particles are too small for him to even grasp.
Strengths: His status as a criminal gang leader - notably, all members of this gang are Superhuman. He rarely loses his temper, and seems pretty good at lying.
Weaknesses: His past, if it is figured out and brought up to him, it is said he shifts to a whole other person. Usually doesn’t think about the holes in his plans. Rest TBD via RP.
Likes: Abstract art. The colour ‘yellow.’ Shiny things. Causing trouble - whether it be small scale or large scale.
Dislikes: Heights. Flying. Mountains. The sky frosting. Loud noises.
Other: Nothing as of yet.

@someone_who_occasionally_writes_

(I LOVE all of these characters. I think we could maybe try and connect at least some of them somehow. Like Adam's parents and someone else could have been hand in Hand, perhaps Vestige, but I think it might flow a little more if we connect a few of the characters so we have calcium bodysticks of a story to build off of.)
