Name: Zero Darris (hates his Last name)
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Personality: Has a bit of a distant attitude, but is also curious. He has little to no social skills but enjoys the company of others. He does however change his mood fairly quickly depending on the situation. When he is in a good mood, whether he realizes it or not, people around his seem to feel lighter. In contrast, when he is angry, it is not uncommon to have a bit of difficulty standing straight.
Description:
History: Grew up with just his mother. Because she was always at work, he had a lot of free time to himself. His ultimate dream is to fly, however just wishing wasn't enough. Through a lot of lonely training, he unlocked a power inside of himself and learned to float in the air.He decided not to tell anyone (not that he had anyone to tell). Later, he found that his ability could be extended to anything around him. This meant that, although it wasn't necessarily flying, he could float and fall as high and as fast as he wanted.
Ability: In a fixed range, he can change the gravity around him. In a bout a 3 foot radius, he can either lower or raise the gravity. He may also choose to change how affected he is to this power as well. He often forgets to turn it off and the range and power of the ability is easily changed by his emotions.

Name: Baemgyun
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Personality: Withdrawn and shy, Baemgyun doesn't like to socialise. He only knows how to work computers and mechanical things, without having a worry for the world. He is very ineloquent and communicates mostly in monosyllabics if he is disinterested. If you get to know him better Baemgyun is like a 'gag machine' who is very witty and counters most things against him with little more than a slight stutter.
Description: Baemgyun has flat, black hair and small eyes, along with a pair of thick-framed spectacles. He is often seen in a pair of yellow work overalls with a collared T-shirt inside, with long socks and a pair of sneakers which always seems to be dirty for some reason. He always carries around a laptop and if you looked closely his arms are almost completely forged from metal.
History: Baemgyun grew up in a family of technophiles, learning how to piece computers and various equipment at a young age. An electrocution incident in university caused him to lose his arms but he also unlocked his ability to control machines- a real 'techophile', if you may. He came on his own accord, curious and more than happy.
Power: Baemgyun can converse with machines, to the point that he can control them for a certain period of time. This also modifies the machine according to Baemgyun's needs and it will exhaust him if he keeps it up for too long. Although it is not a specific power it is also good knowledge to know that Baemgyun is a masterful hacker with an extensive history of attacking government sites.

Name: Caine Tonoda

Age: 17

Gender: Female

Personality: Caine isn't exactly an A student. She ditches classes, roller blades down the halls, and alllll sorts of things. Where she lived she was famous for being a "rebel without a cause" and takes the title with pride, even having a button that says "Official Rebel Without A Cause." She doesn't think things through and doesn't care to, her motto being to "Live it while you can". She can be quite childish at times. She simply doesn't care about what anyone says about her, and does whatever she likes, whenever she likes. If there's something blocking her way, she'll simply go right through it. However, despite her rebellious nature, she'll try not to hurt anyone seriously, whether it be mentally or physically and will stand up for anyone who's being bullied, since rebels aren't bullies. There's a difference. She does NOT like having her parents insulted in any way and won't hesitate to start a fight over a simple remark about them.

Description:

History: At a young age Caine Tonoda lost her parents in a huge storm that ended up taking a huge part of (what used to be) her house. She had been flung from her bedroom onto the ground, but had somehow managed to get up, though it did hurt a lot to do so. But then she saw her father's arm, recognizing it from the arm having her father's signature watch. She also saw her mother's leg, having remembered that she was wearing slippers. She limped over to them, determined to help them out of the wreckage. When she found that pulling wouldn't help she resorted to removing some of the wreckage to get to her parents, being able to pull some of it off despite her condition. But when she managed to reach her parents, she was met with a rather... gruesome sight of them. The image still haunts her, mainly in her nightmares, and the event made her skittish and paranoid around storms in general. What she and others were unaware of at the time was that she made the storm.

Due to having no parents, she was put in an orphanage, though thankfully it wasn't a cruel one. It was a poor one, but the owner did her best with taking care of the children despite the conditions. The owner became a mother figure to Caine. Beginning in her early teens she became a 'rebel', though she didn't call herself that until others did. She joined a group of other 'rebels' that she is currently the leader of. Though they do cause some trouble here and there, due to Caine's leadership and policy that 'rebels are not bullies' they don't do really bad things, though they're still looked down upon. Not that they didn't expect that in the first place. However, due to Caine's rebelliousness, she often stays away from the orphanage for long periods of times, at most being gone a week. Despite having several other children to take care of, the owner still belittles her for going away for so long, her grades, and about everything Caine does in general.

Caine is still unaware of this ability that she has, thinking that she got sent to the academy because she was expelled.

Ability: Caine has the ability to control weather, the area of effect being as big as a small house. She uses the ability unconsciously due to what she feels or sees, if she were to see water then it might suddenly rain, if she were warm then the sun might shine, ect. She hasn't been able to create storms since that one point in her childhood, at least not storms as violent as that.

Name Lucy de Reiger

Age 17

Gender female

Personality The first impression that Lucy leaves with people will always be a negative one. She is quite sarcastic and often reacts uninterested or even negative to others. This is not because doesn't want to get to know these people, but because she simply doesn't trust people easily and is insecure about showing her emotions. She will always try to act tough and untouchable, but is in fact really insecure. She hates being dependent on others, but because of her blindness she sometimes has no choice to. Lucy also dislikes sleeping, saying that it is a waste of time. Secretly this is because whenever she closes her eyes, because she has nightmares with tranquil sleep. Even though she is blind, when she dreams her brain creates images to match the characteristics other senses had picked up. Most of the time this results in incorrect and gruesome pictures. These nightmares and thunder she fears, but other than that no living, dead or spoken thing will make her even tremble the slightest bit.

Description


Other than the picture it is worth to mention that Lucy is quite tall (1.74 meters) and very slender, even up to the point where her health should be questioned. Oh, and of course her clothing isn't that transparent ;D

History Lucy was born with various parts in her brain growing differently than they should have and since birth it was inevitable that eventually, she would go blind because of those parts oppressing the visual cortex, meaning her brain would not be able to progress the information given by the eyes. Eventually, when she was two years old, her eyesight quickly degenerated and a couple of months later, she had lost it completely. Naturally, this had both a great impact on herself as well as her parents. When she turned 7, her mother just couldn’t take the stress and disappointment of raising a blind child, packed her backs and left, taking Lucy’s ‘normal’ little sister, Lily, with her. Being left with her dad, who, despite her blindness, loves her more than anything, she insisted to keep going to normal education, for special education made her feel even more like the weirdo she already in her eyes was.
Lucy finished high school when she was 15, thanks to her extraordinary talent to remember things. She was happy to leave high school, as her classmates didn’t accept her: both because of her blindness, which often let to awkward situations and because of her age. She wasn’t really bullied, but they didn’t talk to her either. They would just act like she wasn’t there. Sometimes someone would put an object in front of her to make her trip, or make a mean remark, which she didn’t like, but she hated the alienation a lot more. No matter what Lucy did to get accepted, they would keep on ignoring her. This made her very insecure about herself and she would give everything to just be ‘normal’, just like Lily, who, as opposed to her, had been wanted.
After a while of sitting at home, not being able to find a job because of her handicap, she received the letter of the Academy. Lucy didn’t want to go at all, but her father insisted, saying that it may be good for her to be around people who had similar problems and maybe understood her, so here she is.

Ability Probably because of the odd relations between the different cortexes in her brain, such as the auditory contex and cerebral cortex, her ability is a combination of hyper-sensibility and a very high memory rate: much like photographic memory, except that photographic memory only records images seen by the eyes, whereas her ability lets her have a same memory rate of the senses other than seeing. When she goes to the Academy, these sensibility powers are just enough to make sure she doesn’t walk into every person that is in front of her, but do not keep her from tripping over a chair that wasn’t in that place a couple of minutes ago, or walking into a wall of which she was pretty damn sure that it wasn’t there yesterday. Her memory is a more developed and you’d better watch what you say (and in what volume you say it), when she’s around: she won’t forget it.

Name: Layla Campbell

Age: 16

Gender: Female

Personality: Happy and well adjusted, Layla is perfectly amicable in every way, provided she doesn't have to do anything she doesn't want to. Don't take her along on a camping trip, because Layla will drag her feet, whine and complain the whole time. She hates being dirty and loathes the great outdoors (the only exception being beaches and lakeside locations). Layla loves meeting people and tends to see the best in everyone. She sees naturally grumpy or angry people as fascinating and interesting, and rather than being deterred by those who give her the cold shoulder, she views it as an opportunity to "kill them with kindness." Her mother was very old fashioned and installed a rather vintage ideal of gentility in Layla's mind. Layla is the sort of person who expects men and boys to open doors for her and other ladies, and would never be able to comprehend the idea of taking care of herself. Thus, she has a lot to learn aside from controlling her abilities. She is strongly invested in her wardrobe and loves frills and ribbons.

Description:


Additional Notes on Layla's AppearanceLayla has a wardrobe full of skirts and dresses. She has never owned pants of any kind, not even to sleep in. She is rather short, about 5'2, with an unexplainably lithe and somewhat athletic build that her mother despairs of, since it looks so unladylike.

History: Born to a wealthy family, Layla wanted for very little in her youth. Although her father, an esteemed surgeon was often away from home, Layla's mother was extremely attentive to her daughter and tried to teach her how to be kind and gracious. She mostly succeeded, but Layla ended up being rather spoiled and naive due to the fact that she had everything she could possibly want or need. At school Layla's peers naturally flocked to her, because her ability to see good qualities in even the rudest person inspired friendships and loyalties that her wealthy status alone could not. Most of her friends thought it was "cute" that Layla had no idea how to pay bills or do something as simple as mail a letter. They were all in a huge conspiracy to keep her a spoiled and petted child, and thus, Layla ended up being rather dependent on others for certain tasks, although she delighted in new experiences when she could get them. Her sometimes childish demeanor may have won her friends, but it left her rather unexperienced when it came to boys. Layla has never been in love, and assumes that when the time comes for her to marry she will end up getting fixed up with the son of one of her fathers associates.

Layla had always loved going to the ocean, a strange quality in someone who didn't care to play out of doors much, and she found that if she concentrated hard enough she could small amounts of water rise from the ocean and into the air. Later, she found that she could take water from the air around her and manipulate it how she wished. This ability frightened her at first, and she stopped using it all together when she accidentally created a whirlpool that nearly drowned a few swimmers. However, her ability had fully awakened and started manifesting in odd ways that she couldn't control, puddles that formed where she stepped, mysterious pistons of water that shot from her hands. Layla tried to talk to her mother about her powers but she was hushed and told not to think about it. It wasn't until the letter from the academy came that Layla learned her father had had some special abilities too, although his had been very low key and had to do with healing. Worried about Layla's well being, her parents forced her to go to the academy, even though Layla would have preferred to stay home where she knew everyone.

Ability: Simply put, Layla has what is commonly referred to as hydrokinesis. She has the ability to manipulate water from sources where it is readily available, such as the air or a nearby lake. Currently she can only manipulate smaller amounts of water, about a gallon or two at a time. In addition, Layla can't always control when this happens, although she has found that her uncontrolled manifestations often happen when she is frightened or upset.

Name: Erik
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Personality: very secluded person although he really wants to be friends with everyone, he just can't ever build up the nerve to talk to people first and he tends to blend into a crowd(no pun intended) even when his power isn't activated.
Description: http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc ... 4303_n.jpg
History: Used to live in Southern Wisconsin till he lost control of his anger and threw one of his classmates across the gym with his mind. He ran from there trying to find Okuni Academy but he was found before he found it. He always wanted to be a pilot and when he discovered his power he tried to use it to fly. long story short, he couldn't.
Ability: Able to turn invisible and move objects with his mind. Can't turn invisible on command and it's never whole body only parts at a time and clothing doesn't turn with him. the moving things is even more volatile. when he's not in control it's explosive and able to tear down buildings with out flinching. when he's trying he can't lift a pencil off his desk without a massive migraine and a nosebleed.

Name: Christopher "Chris" Jeffory

Age: 16

Gender: Female. *sigh*. Yes, her name is Christopher, and she's a girl. It's probably better not to ask...

Personality: She is as shy girl with a kind heart. She has trouble trusting what people say as she was always bullied at school. She is happiest out gardening, because flowers are a whole lot easier to understand than people. She will be a good friend who will help you when you need help. It is well known that sadness is the first thing to activate her powers, and as such, she is most powerful when times are hardest. Perhaps it was meant to be that way.

Description:

description note: Chris always has a silver rose on its vine wrapped around her left arm.

History: Christopher was supposed to be a boy. The doctors said that. Her mother thought that. The name was all ready when she was born and was... a... girl. This would later be proven to have been caused by her powers forming, as a plant controlling boy just doesn't work, but nobody could figure it out at the time. The mother went ahead and named her Christopher anyways, nicknaming her Chris. Chris, already a natural target for her lack of retaliation and shyness, soon became one of the most bullied kids at her school. The sweet girl began crying daily... and her walls began to climb with wisteria and ivy, and her garden grew like nothing else. Her parents, who didn't know it but both had tiny green-thumb powers themselves, were terrified. The final straw came one day after being beat up in the locker room. She came home, and brought a dead flower back to life. More than that- the flower, a rose that now glowed silver, never stopped blooming. Her parents were very scientific, and didn't like this at all. When a letter came inviting her to move to a far away school, Okuni Academy, they rushed her into signing, ane waved goodbye only after she was too far gone. She cried a little as she left, and her rose twisted and glowed on her arm What was wrong with her?

Ability: She can manipulate plants. So far, it only activates when she cries, but perhaps she'll learn better...

Name: Nic Loup
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Personality: Nic is an intelligent person, always doing well in school. He tends to radiate optimism, though it often covers up his hurt feelings or hidden depression. He always tends to get lost in thought, and has been known to sit staring at a blank wall for fifteen minutes straight. Nic is a relatively social guy, and tends to get noticed by girls, though he stays genuinely unaware of any of their scheming. He has trouble lying if it's about anything more major than not brushing his teeth, so his friends can tell easily when he's not telling the truth, and usually betrays his feelings that way. Also, he's never really cared much about his looks, doesn't gel his hair or anything like that. He wants people to like him for who he is, not the products he uses.

Description: (please provide a picture. I will try to get a uniformed sprite for every character)
Nic looks similar to the picture, but not identical. He has dirty blonde hair, bright blue eyes, and a great smile! He stands at about 6'2" and weighs about 150 lbs. He has a very lean muscular build. His canines are slightly larger than normal, and has wolf ears and a tail that match his hair, related to the power I will explain below.

History: (why are you in the academy) When Luke was young, his parents always had the hardest time keeping track of him. He would go out to play, and just disappear, only to be found a few hours later, right where he'd been, completely unaware of anything out of the ordinary. This really annoyed his parents, and so their relationship has always been tense and strangled, in a way. Even though he did amazingly well in school and always did what they wanted, it seemed like they were never satisfied with him. They were always getting into fights. Then, shortly before Nic received his letter from Okuni, they had a major argument, and then Nic blacked out and when he came to, he found himself hanging up in a tree in the forest behind their house. He wondered how he got there, but shrugged it off, and remembered the fight. Then, not wanting to put up with that any longer, he went back to the house to grab his stuff, but first came across the letter. He left immediately to get away from his undesirable life, though completely unsure of why he was invited.

Ability: (please provide details and leave room for improvement. You will be allowed derivative powers later on.) Nic has the power to transform into any animal or just change his appearance. As of the beginning of the RP, he can't when he transforms, it just happens when he's experiencing strong emotions or stress. Also, to begin with he can only change into animals, not change appearance. And most often, when he transforms, he becomes completely unaware of what he does as an animal (that'll stop eventually) However, on his way to the school, he grew wolf ears and a tail and his canines became like a wolf's. He also has light brown fur on his belly, over the abdominal area, covering about twenty square inches. That is part of his permanent form now. When angered slightly, but enough to transform completely, his eyes turn yellow, his arms, legs, and the rest of his torso grow fur. Also, he gets more muscular and more like a wolf the angrier he gets. Just a side effect. Again, no control over powers currently. Also, for the beginning, he will only really transform into a wolf, but that can be developed.

Roommate wanted, no preferences. Room number will be decided together.

Name: Wynne "Sparky" Sparks-Smith
Age: 15
Gender: Female
Personality:
Just because her nickname is Sparky, doesn't mean you want to go calling her that, or you may end up being a little 'sparky' yourself. She puts up with her parents calling her that, but is not likely to ever except anyone else doing so. But, aside from names Wynne is fairly easy-going, although she gets nervous easily. She's also intelligent, you'll often see her with books under her arm, holed up in the library, or lying out on the grass. She doesn't own any electronics, mostly because of her ability. She enjoys being barefoot were ever possible, and doesn't like rugs, the cold, or getting too wet. She also comes from a family of hoarders: she's not quite as bad but, her living quarters usually seem very messy. She loves animals and wanted to grow up to be a journalist or a zookeeper.

Description:
Though not nearly as mopey looking. Wynne is about 5'5" and fairly well muscled. Her hair is messy and often gets in her eyes, and she often doesn't bother to brush out of her face. Her eyes are blue and fairly expressive. She rarely wears makeup. She often wears simple clothes without too many layers or accents. Long pants and a t-shirt are plenty. A dark hoodie usually completes whatever outfit she's wearing.

History:
Wynne has always had the ability to sense when storms were coming. Her parents used to tell her stories about when she was a baby she would begin to cry about an hour before a storm and would not stop until the storm blew over. The worse the storm, the worse the crying. But everyone thought an early weather detector was the extent of her capabilities. As she got older, she and her family noticed that electronics would over load or power down whenever she walked by. Animals got nervous around her because the static formed from petting them would cause her to shock them. Static caused by her clothes rubbing together in the winter would cause her to shock people regularly. If she walked on a rug with socks on and touched something plugged into the wall she could cause an overload bad enough to blow transformers. Still all of this was fine. Until she started accidentally causing forest fires. She was so happy out in the woods, especially when she would see animals, that blue sparks would fly from her fingers. If the area she was in was too dry the sparks could ignite the wood. She was devastated knowing that she had caused so many problems for so many people and animals. When her parents got the letter from the academy, they knew it was the right thing for her.

Ability:
Wynne is a good old-fashion elemental; in this case lightening. However, she has absolutely no control over her powers. Sometimes it's as little as she shocks people by accident when shaking hands or as serious as starting fires while walking in fields or causing lightening bolts to hit things around her. The color of the sparks corresponds to Wynne's moods. When she is happy or excited the sparks are blue, when she's tense they are white, and when she is completely stressed they become blinding yellow. She can also feel electric imbalances in the atmosphere, so she can usually predict bad weather.

Name: Mira Collen
Age: 14
Gender: Female
Personality: Very playful and childish. Mira always looks to the bright side. She is surprisingly smart for her age but this is quickly forgotten as soon as she starts talking to her bunny.
Description:
History: Since she spends most of her time inside playing with her friends, Mira is naive of the world. She is one of seven children and receives little attention from her parents. She turned to the one gift that she had received, her bunny, and played with it instead. Her yearning for companionship led to her discovery of her ability.
Ability: Her Power is "Animate." She can bring life to anything that she finds cute and control its actions. Most of the things that she affects are small and in the shape of animals or people. She mainly uses her power on her bunny. She doesn't know that her power is different and uses it casually. If her bunny is disturbed, however, her ability spreads to multiple things and may become violent.

Name: Kirin Micheals
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Personality: Very witty and enchanting. He has a very polite way of speaking when speaking aloud, but often thinks to himself if not addressed. He does not enjoy violence but is not above defending himself.
Description:
History: Kirin's personality made him very popular with women at his school. It came to a point where people would challenge him to fights to win over these women. Due to Kirin's ability, he has yet to lose any of these fights. It simply saddens him deeper that he must fight daily.
Ability: His Ability is "Impact." When struck with a physical strike, Kirin can absorb the impact and send it back at double the strength. He can best absorb the impact through his hands. Although he is not usually the one to strike first, he may by slapping his hands together or on a hard surface and release the impact through his hands.There is a limit to the amount of force that he can absorb as well as the amount of time that he can keep the energy stored up.

Name:Bethany Williams
Age: 17
Gender: female
Personality: Very Calm and compassionate. She enjoys helping people any way she can. She can seem motherly by some because of the way she helps others. Her advise is usually the best choice.
Description:
History: She tries her best to be normal and to be someone to look up to. Because of her power, she would constantly get in fights of in trouble. She has never had a relationship that lasted more than a few weeks and this sort of depressed her. She has learned to control her emotions, but on occasion she slips up and reveals her other side. This is her second year at the school.
Ability: Her ability is "Change." When an emotion gets out of control for bethany, her body changes her into a teenage boy named Lucas. Lucas is the reason why she can't keep a relationship. When her feelings for someone rise, he pops up and ruins it. He cares deeply what people hink of him and thinks that breaking things and rebelling will get him liked. In this form, Bethany has an added power of increased strength. Though it isn't by much, Lucas can lift things almost twice as heavy as normal.
