The Fifth Academy For Heroes In Training [DT]

Wait, where do our people go if they've already done the test?
Do they stay in the arena?

I don't know how Victor got placed in Damage, but hooray anyways! I can't wait to see all the rest of the brilliant strategies.

I'm SURE Lumi has his reasons for doing what he's doing. :3

I shall post today, as soon as I read everything posted so far properly. I would've earlier, but I'm sick and had a long day and I pretty much collapsed to bed at 9 pm yesterday >.>

I'm trying to catch up. So-many-posts-to-read-and-arena-test-too. Oh, dear. Isaac is probably gonna get his ass handed to him. XD


Edit: posted. Waiting on @Lumi and @Judas.

Scarling, you didn't engage the Golem in your post, so I can't evaluate Isaac's powers and performance. :c

330/1000
26/100

Jessa passes as Tank.

Kya passes as Healer.
Aurora passes as Healer.

Isi passes as Support.
Tahl passes as Support.
Jorah passes as Support.
Astasia passes as Support.
Amandine passes as Support.

Ryou passes as Damage.
Walter passes as Damage.
Victor passes as Damage.
Ruby passes as Damage.
Mia passes as Damage

Katarina passes, and will be announced later.
Bea passes, and will be announced later.

Isaac Lawson's powers need to be trimmed. In future Academies, no children of Loki will be allowed due to the insane amount of difficulty they've presented. Compare the following power set (of Isaac Lawson) to Evatt Elric and Katarina Romanoff.

Isaac: Sorcery, which includes shape-shifting, telepathy, illusion casting and a few others. There's also the superhuman strength, durability, and speed/agility.
vs.
Evatt: A: I am an alchemist, and can transmute matter into variations of itself. I am also trained in martial combat.
vs.
Katarina: A: Martial arts, weapons knowledge (knives, mostly)

That totals up to Isaac having 6+ powers, versus Evatt having one with combat training, and Katarina with no powers + combat training.

Isaac is not the only character who needs to be nerfed. By the end of this chapter, overpowered characters will be nerfed.

@Lumi I'm making another post for Stasia, but I don't know what I'm going to have her doing in it. Do you think you can give me any ideas..?

No one is leaving the arena until the fight is over. I'd just suggest waiting to post until it's wrapped up. There are only a few more bits to take notes on.

@Lumi

Are you going to announce teams after the arena is over?

Not immediately. It won't be long, though. The only trials remaining are:

Henrietta - @Shadowlight
Rose - @Seraphinaxx
L - @Iggy
Hebi - @Judas
Dyre - @AriaAdams
Wade - @SuperNintendo
Evatt - @Lumi

@Judas has yet to make a post in the storybook at all, and I don't remember if Rose has or not (though I think she has).

_____________________

My assessment of powers is ongoing. I'm preparing a section on the reference document for all powers of each hero, as well as adjustments that need to be made (if there are any).

oh boy, I'll try to get a post up some time soon

The condensed power list is complete. I considered making a drinking game of it, taking a shot each time "I can't control" or "I lose control" or "they backfire" showed up. Guys, I would be smashed right now. I'm gonna teach some of you how to be concise, even in character. Teams have not been sorted as I'm still waiting for the last seven trials.

One thing I thought was interesting is that Isi, despite having her Mind Control power removed by my order (including me removing it from her profile), coerced the minds of her classmates to attack the golem during her trial. Thus, until Isi gets with the program, that power will be called Suggestion; in addition, I suggest that none of you pay attention to Isi's mind controlling, suggestion, or coercing, and maybe (just maybe) Isi will get the message.

These powers are written in a minimalist style. That does not give you liberty to stretch that power to whatever you want at the moment.

Powers

Wade West: Super Speed & Sonic Powers
Evatt Elric: Alchemy & Martial Combat
Aurora Ayers: Aura Control (Focus: Healing)
Walter Rogers: Enhanced Power & Agility
Tahl: Enhanced Strength, Stamina, & Agility; Water Control; Twin Telepathy

Astasia Castle: Acrobatics & Personal Healing Factor
Katarina Romanoff: Combat Training & Weapon Skills (Knife Specialty)

Amandine: Matter Transfiguration

Walter Rogers: Enhanced Power & Agility

Just so I know exactly what the limits are here @Lumi

Enhanced power means- his strength, endurance, able to take a beating and time he takes to heal are enhanced correct?

God modding is the last thing I want to do.... SO just let me know if I'm not on the same page with you- kay?

yeah, shady, it was just a lot to write out and made it look (on paper) like Walter had too much. so the one term is just condensed for all of that.
