Backup profile/collab profile for Ren and his friends

Information/Form for Among the Sef

Information/Form for Meridian Sinister

So yes, hello, I'm Ren and I really love OCs - making them, reading them, writing them, you name it. I'm your local transman disaster and probably napped away a good 3 years of my 22 so far. I'll probably make this pretty at some point, but for now here's the details of something I'm working on with a friend right now! I'm currently studying for my writing and editing qualifications, so with any luck we'll be seeing a book from ya boi!! This also means writing time will be set aside for assignments, but I'll do my best to stockpile stuff in between so we can see some updates!

Where else can you find me?

Things About Ren:

It's not a joke that I sleep a LOT (average of 19 hours, 21 if I don't have Things To Do)

I never shut up about Gilgamesh from Fate. Do Not Get Me Started If You Value Your Patience. I Have Witnesses Who Can Back This Up

Gacha games are the reason I'm broke

I looooooove to bake desserts, but starting my own li'l bakery is Scary

Serotonin? In this economy?

RUNNER UPS RULES

1.) Do not ask me to give feedback. I’m not good at it and I spend more time nerfing characters than praising them. It’s a habit I can’t curb, and asking me to give feedback won’t break it miraculously.

2.) If your character isn’t sent completed - no matter how many messages it takes to send the full character - they will not even be CONSIDERED for Runner Ups.

3.) I will allow for children of canon characters, HOWEVER those characters must be run by me prior and the Quirk must be as well. I will not allow characters currently still in school in canon to be their parents. So in short: Son of Shigaraki Tomura = Allowed; Son of Deku = Not Allowed.

4.) No one is allowed to be a recommendation! Zenshi very rarely accepts recommendations due to their desire to foster teamwork from day 1, and those who don’t go through the entrance exam will be considered “behind”.

5.) Your character is going to be in 1B, not 1A. Though both hero courses are equal in the eyes of Zenshi students beyond their first year, the 24 top scoring entrants are in 1A while the 24 following them make up 1B. Your character will not ace the entrance exam, but they will be one of the 48 highest performers. Basically what I’m saying is that your character doesn’t have to be the very best like no one ever was.

6.) I normally don’t like using this as a rule, but I think I need to since it’s the only way I know for sure if I’m doing well with characters: Please try to review every few chapters, if only to let me know how I’m doing with your character.

7.) Runner Ups is set 20 years post-canon, so our favourite UA students are 35-40 years old now! Even though the League of Villains are gone, or thought to be, threats in someone called the Boogeyman are present! Copycats are even arising! Make sure you put a good reason for why your character is applying for a Hero Academy despite a notorious serial killer targeting Hero Academy students is still on the loose - alongside his numerous copycats.

7A.) Further in that regard, if you put “yes” to the clause in the form, DO NOT EXPECT YOUR CHARACTER TO HAVE PLOT ARMOUR. And while I’m at it, don’t make your character perfect in the hopes they’ll be able to catch the killer or escape death. They’re kids.

8.) Finally, make sure you prove you’ve read the rules AND the first chapter by including Teru in your character’s relationships section. This doubles as their thoughts on him, and if I don’t see it, your character gets put lower on the acceptance ladder.

CHARACTER FORM

I.) - BASIC

Submitter Name: (Just your FF.N name! Mostly so I can keep track of you! I’ll add this myself if you forget so don’t fret too much!)

Do you acknowledge and accept that your character may die at any point in the story?: (If you don’t answer this, or if you’re not happy with this clause, then Runner Ups isn’t for you. The story IS about students from hero courses being killed.)

Character Name: (First and last, whichever way you wanna format it! I tend to go surname-first name myself)

Nicknames/Aliases: (Any nicknames they go by? Any fake names they use? Are they enrolled at Zenshi under a different name to their birth name?)

Gender: (Fine with any! My own character is even trans!)

Age: (15-16 only please!)

Sexuality: (Also fine with any!)

Nationality: (I’d prefer Japanese characters because Zenshi isn’t exactly big enough to have even foreigners want to attend. If you must make them a foreigner, though, message me first and we’ll see what we can do!)

Seiyuu/Voice: (What does their voice sound like? How do they speak? Which Japanese seiyuu would you pick to voice them?)

II.) - APPEARANCE

Face: (How does their face look?)

Body: (How does their body look?)

Height: (I’ll be referring to height in feet and inches but if you put centimetres that’s okay!)

Skin: (How does their skin look? What colour is it?)

Eyes: (How do their eyes look? What colour are they?)

Hair Colour/Style: (What colour is their hair? How is it styled?)

Extra: (Anything like freckles, moles, scars, tattoos - even mutations they may have!)

Casualwear: (What kind of clothes do they wear in their downtime?)

Uniform Style: (How do they wear their uniform? The boys’ uniform is a standard gakuran, but with a collar shorter than the undershirt to show the year level tie colour. The girls’ uniform is a standard seifuku, with the collar ribbon being the year level colour)

Extra Items: (Accessories they may wear)

III.) - PERSONAL

Backstory: (I’m open to most, but please make sure you vary the backstories! I wanna know about your character, but I also don’t want a majority of the cast to have the same tragic backstory and the like!)

Relationships: (Names! Quirks! Relationship to the character! Personality! And so I know you read the chapter, I wanna see your character’s relationship to Teru in this section!)

Personality: (I want a meaty personality! Tell me all about your character’s personality! Even just a couple of paragraphs will do!)

Likes: (I wanna see at least 3 likes, but you can do waaaaaay more if you want!)

Dislikes: (Same as above, at least 3 and you can add as many more as you want!)

Hobbies: (I wanna see at least one hobby! It doesn’t even have to be Quirk-related - Teru is super great at baking desserts and would’ve gone to culinary school if he hadn’t passed the Zenshi exam!)

Habits: (Any habits they have? I wanna see at least one, since no one is free of habits. It could be like chewing their nails or something.)

Fears: (This is mandatory! If they were walking down an alley and suddenly were faced with their worst fear, what would that fear be? You can list more than one, but ONE IS NECESSARY. And no, I don’t count failure as a fear. I’m afraid of goddamn seaweed.)

Goals: (I wanna see at least one goal! What do they aspire towards?)

Strengths: (NOT QUIRK STRENGTHS! I wanna know your character’s strengths as a person, be it in their personality or physical state or even their mental state!)

Weaknesses: (NOT QUIRK WEAKNESSES! Same as above, but you have to make sure the weaknesses are EQUAL or GREATER THAN the strengths! So if you have 5 strengths, I expect 5 weaknesses at least!)

Quotes: (As many quotes as you can think of that would give me a feel for how the character talks!)

Plot Ideas: (What kind of things do you want to see for your character? Consider this like scenes you want to see in the fic!)

IV.) - HERO INFO

Quirk Name: (Can be as creative or as simple as you want!)

Quirk Type: (No, no hybrids. You get ONE Quirk type.)

Quirk Effects: (Here’s the Quirk effects! Tell me about how the Quirk works right here, and remember that your character is in the class that is second to the “stars” of the school!)

Future Techniques: (How can they grow with their Quirk? How can it evolve? Any special moves they have?)

Quirk Strengths: (REMEMBER: Your character is in 1-B, not 1-A! And I won’t allow more strengths than weaknesses!)

Quirk Weaknesses: (Same as above! If you have 5 strengths and 4 weaknesses, I’ll add weaknesses myself that you may not like!)

Hero Name: (What’s their hero name? Their moniker?)

Hero Costume: (What does their costume look like? How does it reflect them? Are there special features like Uravity’s pressure points?)

Fighting Style: (How do they fight? How do they use their Quirk in a fight? Are they more support or a slugger?)

V.) - ZENSHI INFO

Best Classes: (What kind of classes are they best at? For example, Teru is good at Classic Literature)

Worst Classes: (What kind of classes are they bad at? For example, Teru sucks ass at math)

Dorm: (How they decorate their dorm?)

Meals: (Since the kids live on campus, what does their breakfast, lunch, and dinner menu look like?)

Thoughts on 1-B: (How do they feel being the “runner ups” of the Hero Course? Did they expect to even get to the Hero Course at all? Do they consider themselves lucky to have made it? Are they disappointed they aren’t in 1-A?)

VI.) - EXTRA

Love Interest: (If they have a love interest, tell me here what kind of person they like!

Stats:

Power - (Rank it 1-5, and don’t be afraid to rank it low. This relates to overall strength, not Quirk strength! But if their Quirk alters their strength, please put in parenthesis the altered stat.)

Speed - (Rank it 1-5, and don’t be afraid to rank it low. This relates to overall speed, but if their Quirk alters their speed please put in parenthesis the altered stat.)

Technique - (Rank it 1-5, and don’t be afraid to rank it low. This relates to how they use their Quirk and how well they go about it.)

Intelligence - (Rank it 1-5, and don’t be afraid to rank it low. Somehow Mineta is high ranking intelligence and best girl Mina is low ranking, and that’s okay!)

Cooperativeness - (Rank it 1-5, and don’t be afraid to rank it low. Zenshi is a team-creating school, so a character with low cooperativeness will need to put in extra work and a character with high cooperativeness will handle these aspects easily.)

Theme Song: (Optional! I like to listen to music when writing specific characters, so if you have any feel free to share them!)

Anything Else: (Anything missed, put it here!)
