The Setting:
UA High School, the school that every kid for the last 50 years has dreamed of attending. It's been 10 years since the fateful day 1-A had their world turned upside down. The school and the nation, have been through a lot in the past years... with UA having to shut down it's hero course to restructure, and increase the security on the rest of the campus... Construction of new, more secure dorms, and practice areas, state of the art, constantly updated security systems and of course the Heroes that make up the faculty all make UA one of the safest schools to attend in Japan.
With the hero course reopening just a few years ago, students from all over have been clamoring to join the ranks of the Pros created by this nigh-legendary school, but now, more than ever, the curriculum and the entrance tests, are there to weed out the weak and refine the gems that manage to fight their way through. Even with the refined process, there has never been another event like the Golden Year.
This year the newest students will see a great challenge rise to meet them. They had better be ready to fight, tooth and nail, to survive... let alone make it the three years to their graduation.

Further Information:
A: All Might died about 8 years ago. There is a statue of him in front of the school in his silver-age costume.
B: UA had to shut down it's Hero department for a few years due to high demand of restructuring and litigation after the Golden Year. That many villain attacks, parents were DEFINITELY not okay with their kids being made into targets. This does not, however, mean UA itself shut down... just it's hero department, and only temporarily.
C: Course adjustments were made, taking into account the fact that BAD THINGS HAPPENED. That means that students in the hero course are now expected to get their provisional licenses ASAP so they can defend themselves should the need arise. It also means that students that NEED specialized tutoring... will get it. Cases like Izuku and his paper maiche arms will be dealt with far more strictly, but also with a LOT more understanding.
D: We'll be functioning in a world where it's now 5th and 6th generation quirks, rather than 3rd and 4th. That means the quirks will, undoubtedly, be stronger, kids without quirks will be even rarer, and kids with them will be expected to have a good understanding of how their quirk works. Late development quirks are extremely rare.
E: The principal has retired, and Aizawa stepped into the position (under pressure from the other teachers and certain former students.) As such class structuring will be different, with "new" teachers.
F: The Entrance Exam has become slightly more standardized. Due to the sheer amount of applicants, the entrance exam now takes up to 2 weeks, during which potentials are interviewed regarding their quirks and their general problem solving skills. Those found wanting are eliminated here. The written exam eliminated more, and is held the day before the Practical exam. Those that do not pass the Written exam are told immediately. The Practical exam involves potential students going up against current low-level pro-heroes and sidekicks in a mock-battle situation where groups of students are encouraged to problem-solve together while still displaying their own independent ability.

Rule Sheet:
1: I am almost always available at least once a day (usually more). There are some days where I wont be, but I'll warn you ahead of time. If you need me, ping me.
2: I expect literacy. Spell things correctly, use proper grammar. I can understand a typo every now and then, but for pity's sake, spell-check.
3: No Mary Sues or Gary Stus. Pretty simple, honestly. No one enjoys playing with super-awesome-mega-powerful-you-cant-beat-me characters. They're boring. Please, be creative, and use your brain to figure out ways around things like quirks designed specifically to negate you... IF you can't handle it... someone else probably can.
4: You are permitted 1 hero slot. We'll be primarily focusing on 1-A. Things like the Tournaments will be handled via players NPCing each other's fights. You can have minor side-characters if you want, but they wont be the primary focus.
5: You are allowed to make as MANY VILLAINS AS YOU WANT. Be creative, have fun with it. They're going to be throw away characters that only appear for 1 arc anyway. I'll be giving you "Themes" to work around, or you can make stand-alone villains that may be recurring, depending on how things go for them.
6: Remember, more than anything, I want this thing to last. I would like to see at least one IC post per week. I will be keeping a running recap on the front page, so anyone who gets lost in the sea of posts can keep up. If you can't manage to post, tell us so we can work together to prevent the RP from stalling out.

Recaps:
Each student, having achieved their goal of entering into UA's hero course, has found themselves in the extended homeroom class of the first day. Meeting their teacher Bakugou-sensei for the first time, several were punished for speaking out of turn and being disrespectful of both their teacher, and their classroom. Once the three who were punished came back from their laps around the school, the whole class was given their gym uniforms and told to meet out on the track field for a quirk acquisition test.
The first test was a 100 meter sprint.
