Introduction: School and Character Creation Here on Heroism-Reignited we highly encourage that everyone's first character be a student. The character need not be complex, and they don't have to be overly active! This is solely to help flesh out all of our diverse schools and to make sure that if we have a school oriented event that every member of the site has a chance to participate! That said if you wish to start as a character that isn't a student please see the alternative start thread. We implement a vast array of starting stats for a variety of schools, to provide diversity for students and to allow anyone coming to make their first character feel like there is an option for them. U.A. for example, being the number one hero school has high level quirks but less skills. This gives U.A. students more obvious power at a glance, while schools like Ketsubetsu and Seijin make up for it with sheer quantity in what they are capable of. Sure you start with a weaker quirk but you also make up for it with your character's diverse set of skills. Any school is open to selection for your first character and you can join either 1-A or 1-B for every school, meaning you have flexibility about which class you get to join. If you join later into the site's lifespan you have the choice of your character having always been there, or being a late transfer. You have freedom to help describe how your character fits into the school of your choice! Each school beyond just stats has a deep and developed reason to be picked. Shiketsu while having the same stat layout as U.A. is more strict. You can't do certain things in Shiketsu like you could in U.A., but you make up for it with the sense of unity that your school provides and the sheer amount of pride that comes with wearing the hat. Seijin has a strong sense of unity preferring to build their students as a unit instead of thinking of them as a single hero. Seiai has more European inspired architecture and with it the complementaries that come with it, a tea room and the like. Things like this provide each school their own flavor that makes it more important than simply a different stat-block at character creation. Once you've decided upon which school you'd like your character to attend you can begin writing up your application using this template, or a template of your own creation or choosing. You can submit your application into the Character Index, and then @ staff within the Contact-Staff section of our discord! Further explanations of skills, quirks, and ranks can be found within the information section! If you have any questions about character creation, feel free to ask Bladedcat#6769 or again contact staff within the Contact-Staff section of our discord! [googlefont=Orbitron] |

"Go Beyond! Plus Ultra!"Located in Musutafu Japan, U.A. is the number one ranked school for Heroics Education within Japan, only rivaled by Shiketsu, they are well-known for their high-ranking alumni that have and continue to hold positions within the top ten heroes of Japan. Their entrance exam consists of a combat simulation that puts the applicants face to face with dangers like they would face out in the field as a hero. This exam usually weeds out those who are physically weak or lacking in destructive quirks, but often the more crafty students find their way into the hallowed halls of U.A. with even the most non-assuming of quirks. Their staff and facility are among the best in the education system due in part to the massive amount of funding they get from heroic sponsors and support gear companies. They are well-known for their massive and innovative training grounds that push their students to their limits in practical scenarios. Grounds can range from a full sprawling city, to a forest grown specifically for training, to even a facility that can simulate natural disasters. Often other schools rent out these facilities for their own tests, if they are unable to afford such large training grounds themselves. U.A.'s dorms are also among some of the largest and most decorated in the country, with each grade and class getting their own building. Food being restocked to the building for use by the students in cooking and a large kitchen resides in each building to help build a sense of community against the students. Overall, when it comes to power and the height of Heroics there are few more obvious than U.A.. Further School Details.> Starts with-One Gold Quirk -One Silver Skill [googlefont=Orbitron] |

"Pride of Heroes, Pride of Shiketsu!"
Located in Okayama City Japan, Shiketsu holds a high respect for the traditions of their past. Having been one of the first hero schools in all of Japan it shouldn't come as a surprise that they hold a high pride in their history, and many of their rules and traditions are choices made with that tradition in mind. They are the number one ranked school for Heroic Education in West Japan, and number two overall. Unlike U.A. who's entrance exam consists of a practical combat simulation taking advantage of their state-of-the-art robotics, Shiketsu's exams often pit the applicants against actual heroes. These actual heroes play the role of villains and many of Okayama's very own citizens pitch in to serve as civilians in need of rescue! The test takes place on the sprawling hills of Okayama City, and are contained within the malleable and moving walls of Shiketsu High. The school grounds are quite wide, spanning the entirety of the hillside overlooking Okayama City, with a large traditional park in the middle of the school where students are free to socialize. One of the most famous things about the school is its ever changing walls that seem to shift and rise from the grounds at any approaching intruders, while also providing outsiders with a perspective to the going ons of the school. It is often a challenge among new journalists to see who can get into hero schools, and Shiketsu even among U.A. has proved more difficult to penetrate. It is known as the one hero school that is prestigious enough to be comparable to UA. Unlike UA however, this is a heavier pressure and obligation to keep their dignity at all times. Shiketsu Students are required to wear their uniform’s hats while working because they represent their school and must always hold up Shiketsu’s standards. They are required to wear their uniforms during school hours as well. On another note, due to their prestigious nature, dating is not allowed at Shiketsu. These traditional rules are unbudging and enforced intensely. Yet with these rules come a number of benefits including the full support of Shiketsu even after graduation, with many Shiketsu graduates still wearing their hats after graduation out of pride. Shiketsu shines next to U.A. as another star of heroism and stands unflinching as a testament to the longevity of heroism and its traditions.

Ketsubutsu Academy High School
"With Equal Step, the Flame Carries On!"
Located in the outskirts of Tokyo Japan, Ketsubutsu was built upon the remnants of a former farmland. They pride themselves in their equal opportunity for all students style of education with an incredibly simple and easy entrance exam, meaning they get students from all walks of life. The land was originally barren and empty when the school was first founded but overtime it has become fertile and ripe, even to a supernatural degree. Plants that are welcomed into the soil of Ketsubutsu seem to thrive and prosper even beyond what they would in their natural habitats. The school credits the work of their dedicated student ethic and their dedication towards protection of life in all forms, but onlookers often credit the founder's quirk seemingly living on through the plants of the school grounds.
Where the farmer's shack once sat now stands the Ketsubutsu Academy High School central building, built entirely from wood it has a very natural and rustic design yet houses several classrooms and one of the largest cafeterias in all of Japan. It has been ever expanding growing as the amount of students who attend increases, having to keep up to the ever-growing demands of their equal opportunity lifestyle. The dorms stand on opposite sides of the school dividing between classes all of them provided with their own garden which they can grow any plants they desire. At the end of the school year these gardens are judged by the teachers and the classes are given grades based on how well they maintained their slice of nature. The dorms themselves are small wooden shacks with two rooms, a living quarter and a bedroom which can be further divided with the moving interior walls. Students are expected to share rooms with more than one student due to the large class sizes.
The Ketsubutsu practical exam is well-known to be nothing more than a simple physical with a quirk exhibition to prove that you at least have a clear knowledge of how to use your quirk. Due to this it is often known as a fallback school for students who can't get into the more prestigious schools, with many of its students being people who failed the U.A. entrance exams, forming a grudge of sorts. This grudge is often taken out during competitions between the schools, and manifests itself into Ketsubutsu rallying up against all of U.A. with some of the other lower end schools and attempting to squash any chance at them succeeding.
Overall, Ketsubutsu is very much the public school of heroics education. This can be either a good thing or bad thing based on who you ask, but no matter what you think of their choices there is no doubt that they churn out the most Heroes out of all of the schools and that isn't always a bad thing! Who knows there could always be some diamonds in the rough!

"Respect the Past, for it is Unflinching."
Located in Iga Japan, Seijin at first glance represents a tradition far from heroism, one of espionage and assassination. This hero school takes several pages out of the culture of their home city and incorporates it into their lessons, with many of their training regiments being ripped straight out of old and obscure ninja history. There is no doubt that they've come under fire for their far from average hero training, with some citing that the school is breeding assassins not heroes. Despite what people believe Seijin holds high moral beliefs when it comes to the use of stealth and blades, and one of the most important lessons taught in Seijin is how to make use of a non-lethal blade. No matter what you believe they stand firm that they merely use the skills of their ancestors to breed a new generation of heroes that make use of the history of old to complement and exemplify their quirks.
Seijin is located in a deep artificial forest in Iga Japan, well known to be one of the main centers for ninjutsu at a time. The location however is highly secretive and it isn't given out to even most high-ranking heroes, only the Seijin alma mater as well as prospective students have the classified information as to where their school is. The design of the school is very much based in traditionalist architecture with stone pathways and arched bridges. All of the buildings are made from a highly flexible long lasting wood to survive the elements of the forest. The central building is much smaller than other schools due to them having a lower than average application process, with many students preferring to go to Ketsubutsu or Isamu for a more quirk-oriented training experience. The dorms are spread throughout the outer courtyards of the forest with each class and age group having a dorm to themselves. The dorms are part of a large building with sliding doors that separate the bedrooms of all the students. Notably Seijin doesn't allow students any form of technology in their bedrooms due to the secretive nature of their school location, nor do they use much technology in their training regimens preferring a more traditional approach, another reason why must students prefer to study at Ketsubutsu or Isamu.
Their training areas use technology to develop unique challenges that mimic scenarios that the students may face in the modern world, while sticking to the traditional design of the school. A red river that never stops flowing, an electrical blue wall that tries to stop you from climbing it, and a clearing of swaying grass. These locations are where a majority of Seijin's lessons take place and their design helps students get a baring on dangerous situations while sticking to the theme the school so much cares about. There is also a strong solidarity taught between the students and it is expected for them to work more as a unit than as a solitary hero group. This is only further pushed by the rather xenophobic nature of their school ground allowing very few outsiders on the property, with students only being able to leave its grounds once a week.
Unlike most hero schools, Seijin tends to take a more traditional approach in training their students. With focus on Sincerity and blades, they are...honestly more Ninjas than the average Hero school. Yet it is this odd nature that sets the school apart from all the others, giving it a unique lesson plan that teaches students solidarity and beating insurmountable odds as a unit. Using stealth and weaponry to make up for one's weaknesses. Seijin is for those students who just need a little bit of an upper-hand advantage.

"Those Who Excel, thus Reach the Stars!"
Located in Aoyama Japan, Seiai is well-known to be one of the few hero schools that money can get you in without regard to how powerful your quirk is. The All-Girls school is built upon Western principles and takes a lot of inspiration from the architecture and culture of the west. It is one of the few hero schools to have no sort of entrance exam and solely has a entrance fee that scares off most students from applying. They receive exuberant amounts of funding from private institutions as well as money from some of the wealthiest families in all of Japan. This money goes towards some of the most high-tech facilities in all of Japan with the best recreational and training areas out of all of the schools, even U.A. can't compete with the level of technology that Seiai has to offer.
Despite there being no entrance exam that doesn't mean that Seiai isn't ruthless, they hold a strict moral code of staying at the top of their caliber with the class president being decided by a combat festival at the start of the year. Students who fail to meet the expectations of the headmaster are often kicked out even if their grades are good, as above all else Seiai strives to appear as the top of class and elegance among heroes. The class president holds many roles and is often in charge of organizing training events as well as building synergy among the class. Students at Seiai also often have incredibly powerful quirks, stemming from the pedigree of the families that send their students to the prep school.
Seiai is well-known for their dorm rooms that challenge even some of the most comfortable hotels in all of Japan, with live-in maids of both robotic and human forms as well as state of the art entertainment areas that allow students to partake in their hobbies no matter how the weather is outside. The more controversial of these recreational rooms stands as the Hall of Hearts a room that can manipulate itself into ideal dating areas, or at least that's what students often use it for. Meaning many students who ask to go to Seiai often go there to find their ideal partners, even if they don't particularly desire to become heroes.
Seiai is above all else, the epitome of elegance and technology in all of Japan. Many of the students being children of celebrities and artists, or people who hold a strong cultural presence in Japan. It may not be the most orthodox school but no one can deny the power of the students they pump out, even if many suspect quirk breeding to be a factor.

Isamu Academy High School
"Anyone Can Become a Hero!"
Isamu represents the ideology that anyone can be a hero with the right equipment! It's this level of preparedness that sets Isamu apart from the other schools, and can be factored into what they truly believe bravery means. Their school is located in the outskirts of Tokyo underneath a renown support gear manufacturer, this allows them to quickly build support gear for their students and includes them into the building process along the way! While not a true support class, due to many of the schools having to specialize in Hero Studies for the time being, there is still a clear emphasis that a hero is just as good as well as they can make use of their gear.
Isamu notably has some of the best designed hero outfits in the industry and are renown for their students designs above all else. Some outfits are built for function with minor tweaks to improve the quirks of their students, while some are purely for fashion to inspire hope into the people who see them. Regardless of what kind of outfit it is, they can surely design anything for your quirk! This level of dedication to craft has turned them into one of the major dealers in hero outfits to the other schools, and in turn has earned them a close kinship to many of the major schools, which often nails them the role of partners in many other schools training routines!
Being under a support gear factory tends to come with its fair share of drawbacks... one of which being the sheer efficiency of how the school is designed. There is very little room for recreation in the factory, with rooms being designed for quirk movement. They've even foregone the usual cafeteria in favor of feeding the students in their room via chutes, not to mention the meal plans are more similar to MRE's than they are to high-school food. Students who sign up to Isamu hopefully know what they're getting into... but there is no doubt that Isamu's dedication to efficiency pays off into their gear as well as their students, producing students who never feel lost as long as they are in their hero outfits!
Isamu is notably home to many strong quirk users due to their enhanced hero outfits truly bringing the shine out of their wearers! One of the key notes of Isamu's training is that anyone can be a hero with enough ingenuity... a sentiment they had hoped to extend to quirkless kids who had hopes of becoming heroes, but with the current state of the world there is little room in schools to be training those with low potential. They still hope that one day... that truly anyone can be a hero!
