The conversation started to get exciting for young William as he turned to Ken "Oh, Quidditch is the wizarding world prime sport, following the stereotipical witch-broom flying, they play in an oval field with three rings that serves as the goals,... Isnt it best if we let the teacher explain? Honestly, I just spent some 10 hours flying in the chillie wind because my brother didnt pay attention to his astronomy classes... Im starving!!!" followed by a mouthfull of beans and eggs.
He turned to Francis and exclaimed "OOOOHHHH, so youre Newts son, right? Him and my father go way back. He actually bought a Portuguese Short-Snout from my father one time. Soo you were the kid my father said I would probably be meeting. Us creature-caretaking families have to keep close you know?" he proceed to shake is hand vigorously.
He then shook H.B.'s hand before asking a very vital question "Yes, nice to meet you too. But what is a shuttle? And why on snakeback? Its that Ive tried to ride a snack as a kid and, let me tell you, they dont like it."
Then, I think im gonna chage my perk in Tussle Hardened into another rank of Can I Borrow Your Notes? because he gets his 2 brother´s old books and studies from their time at Hogwarts.
I think its very well made. You should try to send this to the Games´s creator to see if he can include it. Its a shame that yu probably will use the shorter version of flying checks but its still preety good.

William was raised in his family homestead in the outskirts of Leeds. He as 2 older brothers (21 and 23 years old) and a younger sister(9 years old). His farm is quite unusual though, because they raise magical creatures, mostly hippogriffs, bicorns, etc. He as also learned to get his way with people through the use of words (once he broke a plate in front of his dad and managed to blame the wind for it, his dad believed him). One of his wishes is to be able to join the Quidditch World Championship and later retire to a cozy farm where he can raise creatures like he did has a child.
I think it does. Ill be a pureblood ,yes and it would be kind of fun to challenge each other and create some rivalries/friendships because of it.
PS: In what year are you?
Okay, soo im going for a male Hufflepuff that is specialized in Flying and Care of Magical Creatures, lets say he has been taking care of various creatures in his family´s homestead. Give me a few hours and ill have him done. :)
Oh, if we are talking about possible powersets i have a clear idea in my mind. Speed, ability to transverse water and run up buildings, run soo fast that can teleport through walls and hightenned senses. My main form of attack would be punches, but if i want to take it up a notch i would do extra electric damage (stactic friction) that would also stun/paralize its target. Soo, high speed, high dodge and parry, good environment movement, high close combat , high athleticism and acrobatics, some minor imunities (electricity) and a preety face to show to the public eye that as some backing by his fame in the media. Okay, imagine Flash in the cartoon, just saying.
Minato was born into the Kushina family in Japan. He was raised in the warrior ways of his family like many before him, practicing different martial arts throught his childhood until his teens. When he turned 11 he went to a private school which focused more on athletic feats and where the students where prepared to compete at the international stage. There Minato started his education in acrobatic gymnastics, mainly balance acts and some more physically demanding ones(acrobalance, aerial silk, tightrope, contortion, etc.). Even though his school life was very demanding, he managed to make quite a number of friends thatnks to his charm. He was part of a famous group that was later to be called "Anti-Dogeza Act" which consisted of a tight group of friends who competed in all kinds of acrobatic events around the country. When he turned 16, Minato was almost sickenned by the repetitive labour him and his group had to do, so to counter that, they turned their attention to freerunning and parkour to pass their time. Realizing their sons's decision their parents decided to invest in their future. They ordered a big facility to be built near their school where the group could practice their new found passion. Later on, when they established their name in some local events, they decided to go beyond what was asked of them. They began competing in street tournaments, in which they became known for their acts of superhuman dexterity and bodily strength, as well as their flashy smiles and their witty appearance. They managed to catch a sizeable group of fans that encouraged them to dream even bigger. Not long after, they enrolled in a number of TV shows to show their skills(Ninja Warrior, Wipeout, etc.). They managed to win the national prize in Ninja Warrior and finished at 4th place in the world championship. As Minato was approaching is 25th anniversary he wanted to focus more on his skill, without the pressure of the show business. He knew he wasnt the smartest person, but he had the wisdom of a wise donkey. He knew that with his fame he could get a job easily, so he turned to the same show that gave him his fame, Ninja Warrior, and proposed that he should be the one of the "Faces", previous contenders who are selected as the trainers for one of the countless local teams in the game. He was latter appointed as the Emerald City Ninja Warrior Trainer. Unless his plans are delayed...

Just a side note. When you mean you want us to play a non metahuman, do you mean no superpowers? or just not genetic freaks? Can my character have some experiments done on im but only recently awakened the ability to use them?
The way that I understood it was that he wanted us to write up our character's backstory from BEFORE they became metahuman. He said that our actual powers could come from a common origin, meaning that we'll be in the same place at the same time when we're blasted with weird energies or chemicals.
Ah, ok. Well... i guess my character had it but he never used them because they were dormant, and he didnt even knew how he used it the first time. Would be cool if they awakened because of something in the city. Maybe thats what wilk make my character stay in this place.
Jeff Fujimoto was an ordinary child, his mother was japanese and his father was american. He lived most of his childhood in a "not soo cozy" neighbourhood in Detroit. But he wasnt the type to get bullied, and he didnt join a gang or whatnot. Instead he lived his life hiding from trouble and conflict, not the brightest student in class but good non the less. He didn´t have any aspirations (after all, he was just a kid) and the only thing he did except reading books and studying was helping his parents in their restaurant "Little Fujimoto".
DEBTS:
One summer, his family decided to visit his mother´s family in Japan. Preety normal, right? Well, it seemed that his grandfather had passed away and had left a big debt on the family (gambling, drinking,etc.). It seemed that the debt collectors wanted a quick fix soo they kidnapped Jeff for the money. Unknowing of his condition, Jeff was then sold to the Asian slave market and latter to a big pharma company in Russia. He spent the next years being tortured, experimented on and ultimatelly brought to the breaking point, over and over again... But he didnt seem to show any results that the companie wanted. After millions of dollares in experiments down the drain, they wanted to sell him to a mexican cartel, for his organs. But they had to keep him alive until then. Soo they put him on a one way plane to Mexico. What nobody expected was that when the plain was flew over the Pacific Sea, Jeff just vanished. Apparently the experiments showed themselves in a moment where he knew for sure he was gonna die. The problem was that he phased through the bottom of the plane only to free fall into the ocean. Luckily, he landed near an american cargo ship that managed to save his life and return im to America. They had been looking for him for 4 years now.
After a lenghty period in the hospital, and not soo few visits to the shrink, he was back on his feet. Of course, the media made a great deal about him but he was soon forgotten. As it looked, his mother had died 2 years ago from grief and his father was very lonely after her death. Only after his son´s return did he feel happy again.
TEENAGE YEARS:
After his enslavement, Jeff wasnt the same. He didnt want to run away from trouble and disconfort. He had seen and felt the worse humans had to offer. He joined the Journalism Club, started studying to go to an IVY League Uni and practiced martial arts. He started making acquaintaces at the same time, knowing the language of the streets. He managed to enter Arizona State University where he took his Journalism and International Relations´s Doctorate. Both at the same time! He wanted to be able to report on the matters that he had been exposed as a child in captivity, so he joined Epsilon, a very famous online news outlet.
NOWADAYS:
Now, Jeff goes from city to city in search of a good story, never staying in one place. But he isnt the normal reporter, oh no. In the daylight, he his a normal interviewer, talking to the bosses and the employees. But in the moonlight he is different. When he finds the company fishy, he sneaks into it, trying to finds its dirts and its evildoings. Later he uses the results in the journal, claiming an annonymous source. This is how his life as been going, but as his journey takes im into the seemingly quiet Emerald City, what dangers is he going to witness?
CHARACTER DRAFT:
So, Jeff is an hidden identity, more or less as he as appeared aresting some gang lords in the news (he took the photos himself). He is an INFILTRATION SPECIALIST/DDECTECTIVE specialised in intelligence gathering and stealthing into unknown territory, so he would be a SPECIALIST and the character in itself is CLEVER/OBSERVANT. But he will be focused in moving quietly, quicly, while gathering information, using his enhanced senses and phasing ability to get his party into buildings and hard to reach places. But, he isnt just some eyes and ears to the group, he will have some fighting ability form martial arts as well as having a large source of contacts to help the group.
Just a side note. When you mean you want us to play a non metahuman, do you mean no superpowers? or just not genetic freaks? Can my character have some experiments done on im but only recently awakened the ability to use them?
#1) Introduce Yourself: Hi im Nuno, im a fantasy enthusiast with a bit of a God Complex... just kidding, I just look like Jesus IRL. I love to make people laugh, make friends and, above all, create fantasy worlds where I can express my inner emotions. This is why I roleplay, its a way to find my true self in a world that is used to dictate our behaviour. I think my favourite Super Hero is Rorschach, mainly because he is a very traumatiged character and he follows a very distinctive philosophy where people have to act for events to happen in their favour. Following that it should be spiderman, a boy who gets powers and has to fight between his life and the hero he wants to be. I want to play a superhero RPG to differ from the usual high fantasy scenarios of D&D, also its because people my age are very fond od the idea that there are creatures who represent good out there. Maybe I want to be like them...
All in all, I dont have any experience playing M&M. But I can guarantee that I will put double...no, TRIPLE the effort into the game. Yes, expect a day or two of learning but i´ll quicly pick up the pace. I also dont have experience using PBP, but the idea intrigues me.

#2) If I understand correctly,and correct me if im wrong, we have to be descriptive in our way of speaking while always creating engaging content that moves the plot without blank space
#3) I want to create sort off a travelling vigilante that is a reporter/investigator for an online newspaper. He would find dirt about the guys and then wreck their sh*t. He as a lot of extrasensorial abilities (made for investigating) that came from a biological source. Im thinking in the lines of the new Venom movie but without venom :P
Much like Rorschach, people dont know his real identity. But his personna may be inclined to stay in a spot if something really bad happened. And he could report on the events first person!!! (imagine him being like peter parker delivering the photos of himself to his boss)
All in all, I think I would be a SPECIALIST/TRANSPORT and my hero would be CLEVER/OBSERVANT
PS: Im gonna work on the story a little bit but I want to know if you like the concept :) Honest opinion please
