[[folder: Zach Hirshbaum]]
[-Player: @/MichaelDj54-]

* AbusiveParents: Zach's father was an abusive, aggressive drunk who took it out on his wife and son whenever he felt slighted. His crowning achievement, however, was selling his own son to a ''cult''.
* ArtAttacker: His ink is his main form of attacking, usually in the form of drawing said weapons, with tendrils defaulting as blunt objects.
* BattleCouple: With Yoko.
* CombatTentacles: How his ink defaults when in combat.
* ConditionedToAcceptHorror: He was told at a young age that he was going to die a lot earlier than anticipated, so a large majority of the stuff that happens to him, he accepts with a smile.
* DeclarationOfProtection: He's protective of everyone in his class and squad, but the Declaration part specifically goes to Yoko as a way of establishing their relationship.
* HumanoidAbomination: After [[spoiler: Yoko purges Zach of his ink and combines the both of them]], Zach becomes a being of living, breathing ink, rather than a human. Normally he appears as himself but has been known to shift into some strange, alien ink monster when threatened.
* HappilyMarried: To Yoko, though not in the human sense, the Kitsune sense [[spoiler: before being ''officially'' married after they leave]].
* LuminescentBlush: How he often reacts when Yoko decides to tease him, with heavy blushing on its most basic to ''catatonic shutdown'' on the worse ones.
* NiceGuy: Thus far, Zach has been upfront, friendly and optimistic about almost EVERYTHING. Sure, as of recent he's grown somewhat snark-y, but that comes with the territory of his class.
* [[spoiler: PutOnABus: After coming to terms with his PTSD affecting his heroic duties, Zach drops out of the University and leaves with Yoko to focus on being a parent.]]
* ShapeshifterWeapon: Technically he draws whatever he needs, but his weapons are LITERALLY anything he draws, from [[TrickedOutGloves Power Gauntlets]] to {{BFS}}.
* [[spoiler: ShellShockedVeteran: After the attack from Gaea, Zach developed PTSD that ultimately killed his drive to become a hero.]]
* TheQuietOne: Zach hasn't uttered a single word since the roleplay started. Apparently, it has something to do with the ink itself.
* ThePollyanna: He grew up poor, with an abusive father who at one point sold him to a cult for some quick cash. He never once lets it affect him and continues to be a nice, friendly guy.
** StepfordSmiler: An alternate interpretation of how he acts, especially when he just seems to ''accept'' the idea of him dying at such a young age without so much as bating an eye.
* TheyreCalledPersonalIssuesForAReason: The apparent reason that Zach keeps his secret.

Yoko is the school's local Yōkai on the cusp of ascension; a kyūbi no kitsune with a mixed bag of experiences for a past and a lingering need for companionship and love. Initially acting like a traditional malevolent and selfish fox spirit in her early years, Yoko has slowly been beaten down by loss and the harsh realities of the world to the point where she's only wanting to atone for her actions in her final century as a mortal in hopes of seeing her loved ones in Heaven again. A prospect she's still aiming for, but seems to be becoming split between now that she's found love again. Yoko originally was disguised as Ash Phoenix's rather... ''disturbing'' plush toy, and as such only joined the class officially a month or so later.

Yoko is
[[caption-width-right:300:]]

A feral creature of unknown origin discovered in
the school's local Yōkai on forests near Super City. Later dubbed "Wren" due to her abundance of birdlike traits (that and her remarkable ability of vocal mimicry), her behaviours in the cusp of ascension; wild were studied up until she got into a kyūbi no kitsune rather nasty fight with a mixed bag of experiences for a past bear and was grievously injured--resulting in the Saint Foundation having to intervene to give her medical attention. In the time spent with her recovering, it was decided that her unidentified nature should be subject to study to avoid a lingering need for companionship similar situation in the future, and love. Initially acting like thus Wren was rendered somewhat of a traditional malevolent curiosity to a group of researchers both nonhuman and selfish fox spirit in human alike. With her early years, Yoko has slowly been beaten down powers eventually making her too much of a handful (her teleportation couldn't be halted by loss and the harsh realities any known means of the world power nullification), Wren was transferred over to the point where she's only wanting to atone for her actions in her final century as a mortal brand new Saint University in hopes of seeing her loved ones in Heaven again. A prospect she's still aiming for, but seems to be becoming split between now that she's found love again. Yoko originally was disguised as Ash Phoenix's rather... ''disturbing'' plush toy, and as such only joined the class officially a month or so later.being surrounded by equally strange individuals would help ease her into society (and thus make her easier to deal with). With more animalistic behaviours than human, Wren may be lacking in conventional intelligence, but her loyalty to those who manage to get through to her is undying.



* FauxFlame: As is tradition with kitsune legends, Yoko can generate an ethereal, spiritual form of fire that does not require fuel, burns indiscriminately, and hurts both in a hot and cold fashion. [[ShockAndAwe Also manifests as lightning on occasion.]]
* HatesBeingAlone: After nearly a full millennia of watching every single one of her mortal friends, allies, lovers, and even family perish due to old age, Yoko is ''more'' than a little dependent on companionship. Her broken state upon the prospect of it happening again with Zach was such that the latter immediately jumped to a DeclarationOfProtection. Even now she seems to get anxious whenever she perceives she's offended someone in some way—and as illustrated below it also means she gets a [[{{Understatement}} little]] protective of her peers.
* HappilyMarried: [[spoiler: To Zach, but only in the traditional kitsune terms rather than mortal marriage.]]
* MasterOfIllusion: A kitsune power based on mythology. Yoko can cast realistic illusions that can affect practically every sense in her target's body, and can even apply complex [[{{Glamour}} Glamours]] to herself and others as distractions. She uses this most notably in the Licensing Exams to create ghostly duplicates of the squad for use as diversions.
* OurGodsAreDifferent / OurSpiritsAreDifferent: Yōkai come in all shapes and sizes, but kitsune in particular are fundamentally still [[SquishyMage physical (albeit magical) foxes]] up until they become nine-tailed—still able to be KilledOffForReal with marginal difficulty as long as their tails are severed beforehand. Yoko has not yet ascended into a spectral state as is the norm for especially ancient kitsune, and as such is on the so-called "cusp" of godhood. Granted—of course—[[TheAtoner if she actually makes up for her sins in time to ascend in the first place.]]
* Really700YearsOld: Technically over 900 years old, but the point stands. Comes hand in hand with being an ex-seductress and a shapeshifting trickster fox, of course. Even in her more mature true form she still doesn't look a day past her thirties.
* ThePollyanna: ZigZagged. Yoko certainly appears to be to those unfamiliar to her—and it is ''her'' favourite guise to use—[[StepfordSmiler but it often ends up fraying into a more stressed and anxious persona.]] Would be averted if not for her ‘personality shapeshifting.’
* TheTrickster: Has had a history, as would be expected. Toned down from her earlier years, but she still notably can't resist teasing her boyfriend or literally anyone else who vaguely deserves it.
* ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend: To Zach, most definitely. Even before the couple became official she sent dirty glares towards Dawn when she tried to help her comfort the boy during a bout of anxiety from the latter. Since then she has vowed through gritted teeth to protect him from whatever his ink was doing to him and coldly warned Sam to stop [[DopeSlap Dope Slapping]] him on threat of death.
* VoluntaryShapeshifter: [[{{Kitsune}} Naturally.]] Of both physical and mental means, Yoko can alter her form and identity and even change into small objects if need be. The downside of course being that her fur and foxy features are still able to be ''felt'' regardless of how intricate the form is. [[TechnicallyNakedShapeshifter And let's not even get started on her clothes.]]
* {{Yokai}}: A Kyūbi no {{Kitsune}}, to be precise.

* CuteMonsterGirl: Considered such by a few of the class in her first appearance. Her large eyes, infantile nature, and limited vocabulary probably contribute to this.



* HumanoidAbomination: A creature described to be so alien that it doesn't even show up on life scanners and is immune to teleport blockers. Her DNA is unrecognizable under scrutiny, and her powers seem to be fundamentally tied into her very existence.



* WildChild: To the point where it's unlikely she'll ever reach an intelligence level comparable to humans.

Squad One is...tricky. It is affectionately known as 'Team Anime' but also as team dark secrets, as about everyone on that squad has some dark secret which they confide in no one.

* AnIcePerson: Has ice powers, and claims that is all he has.
* BeneathTheMask: On the surface, a DumbJock out to have sex, lift, and party hardy. On the inside, a cold-blooded, ruthless man associated with mercenaries. He uses the phrase "evil succeeds when good men do nothing" in a way that means "evil wins if good isn't willing to suspend all niceness and do what needs to be done."
* CombatPragmatist: Uses his ice powers extremely pragmatically, including freezing people to the bone, trying to mess up their running, dropping icicles...
* DarkSecret: His real personality and the true extent of his powers.
* DumbJock: On the surface at least.
* EveryoneHasStandards: As messed up and calculating as Shane is, even he has his limits. He found Mikael's growing egotism, conceit, and questionable attitudes to be readily detestable.
* HeroicBuild: Shane is absolutely ripped, his looks copied from an outright male model.
* LovableSexManiac: As part of his jock act, Shane is very much the typical sex hungry dudebro. He's very open about what he does and with who.
* OurWerewolvesAreDifferent: Very different from other werewolves in the RP. Unlike them, he shifts between forms quickly and easily, and is differentiated by being called a Skinwalker instead of a Werewolf. In other words, a powerful, sorcerous werewolf associated with unsavory activities.
* PayEvilUntoEvil: His typical speed--he does bad things to bad people. He extorted and blackmailed his teachers in his old school...because they were taking advantage of at risk students in a number of ways, with one teacher implied to be using the at risk students in a distinctly despicable way.
* PragmaticHero: Under the mask. He's willing to countenance wounding, maiming and all sorts of dirty fighting if it means less people die vs. the alternative.
* ShirtlessScene: For most of the cast, being teleported out of their clothes was embarrassing. For Shane, it was a chance to show off his rippling musculature.
* StepfordSmiler: Happy, perverted and somewhat hilarious jock on the surface, cold blooded mercenary on the inside. Though its even more eerie when he shows both "sides" blend together naturally.
* WhyDontYouJustShootHim: Averted - Shane packs hand guns. Not that they played much of a role in the fight they were involved in. It was more the surprise he was willing to use those kinds of things.

Yoko is the school's local Yōkai on the cusp of ascension; a kyūbi no kitsune with a mixed bag of experiences for a past and a lingering need for companionship and love. Initially acting like a traditional malevolent and selfish fox spirit in her early years, Yoko has slowly been beaten down by loss and the harsh realities of the world to the point where she's only wanting to atone for her actions in her final century as a mortal in hopes of seeing her loved ones in Heaven again. A prospect she's still aiming for, but seems to be becoming split between now that she's found love again. Yoko originally was disguised as Ash Phoenix's rather... ''disturbing'' plush toy, and as such only joined the class officially a month or so later.
----
'''Tropes'''

* FauxFlame: As is tradition with kitsune legends, Yoko can generate an ethereal, spiritual form of fire that does not require fuel, burns indiscriminately, and hurts both in a hot and cold fashion. [[ShockAndAwe Also manifests as lightning on occasion.]]
* HatesBeingAlone: After nearly a full millennia of watching every single one of her mortal friends, allies, lovers, and even family perish due to old age, Yoko is ''more'' than a little dependent on companionship. Her broken state upon the prospect of it happening again with Zach was such that the latter immediately jumped to a DeclarationOfProtection. Even now she seems to get anxious whenever she perceives she's offended someone in some way—and as illustrated below it also means she gets a [[{{Understatement}} little]] protective of her peers.
* HappilyMarried: [[spoiler: To Zach, but only in the traditional kitsune terms rather than mortal marriage.]]
* MasterOfIllusion: A kitsune power based on mythology. Yoko can cast realistic illusions that can affect practically every sense in her target's body, and can even apply complex [[{{Glamour}} Glamours]] to herself and others as distractions. She uses this most notably in the Licensing Exams to create ghostly duplicates of the squad for use as diversions.
* OurGodsAreDifferent / OurSpiritsAreDifferent: Yōkai come in all shapes and sizes, but kitsune in particular are fundamentally still [[SquishyMage physical (albeit magical) foxes]] up until they become nine-tailed—still able to be KilledOffForReal with marginal difficulty as long as their tails are severed beforehand. Yoko has not yet ascended into a spectral state as is the norm for especially ancient kitsune, and as such is on the so-called "cusp" of godhood. Granted—of course—[[TheAtoner if she actually makes up for her sins in time to ascend in the first place.]]
* Really700YearsOld: Technically over 900 years old, but the point stands. Comes hand in hand with being an ex-seductress and a shapeshifting trickster fox, of course. Even in her more mature true form she still doesn't look a day past her thirties.
* ThePollyanna: ZigZagged. Yoko certainly appears to be to those unfamiliar to her—and it is ''her'' favourite guise to use—[[StepfordSmiler but it often ends up fraying into a more stressed and anxious persona.]] Would be averted if not for her ‘personality shapeshifting.’
* TheTrickster: Has had a history, as would be expected. Toned down from her earlier years, but she still notably can't resist teasing her boyfriend or literally anyone else who vaguely deserves it.
* ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend: To Zach, most definitely. Even before the couple became official she sent dirty glares towards Dawn when she tried to help her comfort the boy during a bout of anxiety from the latter. Since then she has vowed through gritted teeth to protect him from whatever his ink was doing to him and coldly warned Sam to stop [[DopeSlap Dope Slapping]] him on threat of death.
* VoluntaryShapeshifter: [[{{Kitsune}} Naturally.]] Of both physical and mental means, Yoko can alter her form and identity and even change into small objects if need be. The downside of course being that her fur and foxy features are still able to be ''felt'' regardless of how intricate the form is. [[TechnicallyNakedShapeshifter And let's not even get started on her clothes.]]
* {{Yokai}}: A Kyūbi no {{Kitsune}}, to be precise.
