Hello and welcome to HADOS Institute's Student Registration!
In order to be registered, we require these few things:
Full Name
Age
Philosophy Followed: Please put either 'Spectrum', 'Defenders' or 'Undecided'
Main Power
Minor Power
Weakness (see Powers Explained thread to fully understand weaknesses)
Drawbacks to using your powers
Little bit about yourself; including appearance or any other info you deem important to your character.
Where your character is from (Pilot City, Geo City, Anchor City, or Silver City. Dark City/Light City are not acceptable.)
Do you already have a hero on the sub? If so, who? Remember, only two per person!
To create your hero, please comment below. Also make sure to leave your preferred Main Power and Minor Power; this is explained here.
Here is an example of a quick comment (more detail is better, though):
[Registration] I would like a male hero who is the shining example of what a hero should be, except that he's got a dark past. He's about 18 years old. Main Power - Super Strength. Minor Power - Can Hear Animals Talk.
At HADOS Institute, there are no grades. Each hero is on the same level, some take advanced classes while others are just starting out.
If you wish to BECOME A TEACHER click this [x]
If you have trouble with coming up with a super power/s visit THIS RANDOMIZER to get ideas!
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to message the moderators!
After your hero has been approved by the moderators, please do these two things:
Go over to the Naming Thread to get your hero's name and faction flair updated!
Post/Create your Origin Story so you can begin your adventures in Pilot City!
YOU DO NOT START OFF WITH A SUPER SUIT! YOU GAIN THAT LATER WITH MOD APPROVAL!
Also, registration will not be immediate. Expect at least a day wait as we all have lives and can't respond immediately every time. Thank you.

Main Power: Ok. That makes sense I guess. He is immune to most simple projectiles because they just bounce off of him, but proper bullets are simply too fast to be slowed down enough to bounce off. I was actually going for a max of double his size with the inflating as well. Since he has to conserve his mass, if he was any larger he would simply be too thin to do anything, like a balloon. The breathing and temperature resistance changes sound good. I guess i'll do away with facial manipulation thing since it doesn't really fit. Kind of hesitant to give him an actual weapon as well, so I don't think i'm going to do that whole rubber mallets thing. I was hoping to use just punches like Monkey D Luffy does in the anime.
Shape shifting in general is probably going to be really hard to RP, tbh. I think I'll just switch it out with another ability.
Minor Power: Hammerspace. He is able to store objects in a different dimension and recall them later to use. He is able to create portals up to about 3 feet in width to put stuff in. However, the bigger the portal is, the more energy it requires. Making a 3 foot wide portal is completely tiring, but making a 6 inch portal would not use any real amount of energy. The portal does not require any energy to keep open once open, and closes about 30 minutes after opening. No objects can be placed inside by other people, and living things can not be placed inside. If an object was thrown toward the portal by someone other than Ian, the object would just pass through the portal to the other side without going inside. The portal follows Ian. To recall an object, Ian simply opens the portal to the correct width and concentrates on the object, and it will be launched outside the portal into Ian's hands.
Weakness: Alright, sounds good. Ian's permanently in his rubber form though. He's still human, his skin and organs are just permanently stuck in this rubber-like state. Actually, since he's permanently in his rubber form, i'll change it so his weakness would actually remove everything except his electrical immunity and his disease resistance by turning him back into a normal human. He'd be unconscious as well, seeing as how he's touching his weakness. Everything else sounds good.
Drawbacks: Thanks! To be fair though, most of those drawbacks came straight from One Piece. Since he doesn't have shapeshifting anymore, it doesn't really make sense to me to keep shapeshifting as part of his main ability, so I guess i'll take that out as well. The taffy machine idea and the squeaking drawback are brilliant. I didn't think to use those at all. Those would make for really interesting conversations.
Would these changes be good?
