✧ THE STORM ✧

Shinjuku, 5:57 PM, Monday.

The arraignment of the man known as ‘The Elementalist ‘ was running on the major Tokyo News channels. A dangerous man who had caused the Tokyo government a severe headache by illegally experimenting on quirkers through a government-funded facility. He was well known by the populace of Japan as he became linked to a human trafficking ring as the allegations came out. Some people were found heavily mutated, and others… were never found.

For all accounts, it should have been a normal day. It sure seemed that way with the usually busy streets of Tokyo continued, ignorant of the immense devastation that would befall them in just a few minutes. Those tuning into the courtroom would find the judge listing off the Elementalist’s extensive rap sheet and then ask for a plea. The silence was palpable until the man exhaled and spoke

“Not Guilty.” The courtroom was in an uproar over this as his crimes were undeniable. Still, The Elementalist would continue, “I did this to help. I would, and I WILL do it again.” A smirk appeared on his face, and his features would begin to melt into a green goo-like substance. The ballif would attempt to use quirk nullification to detain him, and to the shock of the rest of the courtroom, this would fail as The Elementalist would fade, leaving some cryptic parting words

“They will take care of everything”

Meguro, 6:00 PM, Monday.

Armageddon descended on Meguro in the blink of an eye.

Forming out of seemingly nowhere, a terrifying storm swallowed up the small Meguro ward, trapping all of those within it in a living hellscape. There was no warning when the wind speeds suddenly picked up, in the blink of an eye bicycles and people were being thrown about with reckless abandon. Windows and doors were ripped off their hinges and even some cars were picked up by the winds like they were mere toys. Up above, those who had now become trapped in the ward saw thick, dark clouds gobble up the Sun and any hope of escaping. The clouds all gathered near the center of Meguro, encircling the people below like vultures, forming a massive spiral that threatened to mesmerize those who dared look for too long.

The Storm had appeared with an explosive amount of energy, but as the clouds spun into place, so too, did some of the winds begin to settle. To those who were astute, they would start to notice that the winds were weaker the further they got from the center. Constant, but weaker. Conversely, the closer they were to the center, the harsher the winds grew. Hanging just under the spiralling clouds at the center of Meguro was the source of it all. Flying high above the ground.

Ken Yoshida, The Storm.

Ken had been shunned by society as a loser for his weak powers, exploited by his former boss and overworked to near death at their firm. Now, said firm had been pulverized. The building crushed under the overwhelming power of The Storm in the first seconds of its appearance. Ken had gone through the Elementalist’s twisted experiments entirely of his own accord. With the hopes that he could grant him the powers he needed to punish society. To kill all of those who had failed him.

Veins were bulging and popping out of his arms and head, the power felt unstable, yet so incredibly intoxicating that he couldn’t help but let out an exhilarated cackle.

‘‘THIS IS IT! THE POWER I NEED TO KILL THOSE WHO ARE UNWORTHY!!’’

OOC: Welcome to The Storm! I’m so excited to have you all here! Your first post should involve dealing with the Storm directly, meeting up with each other on the scene or dealing with the fallout of his appearance. Otherwise, have fun and good luck!! Starting from this post we will be going by our pre-established posting order, meaning the next person in line has a maximum of 4 days to reply and so on. The deadline is strict, but I can remind you when you have 24 hours left if you need it.

Additionally, if you want to plan a cool character moment ahead of time, like making a heroic sacrifice or setting up a team attack, but want to keep it a surprise to the other people in the boss thread until it happens, feel free to sneak into my DMs so we can plan out the details! This is not mandatory, but I want to make sure every character shines and looks their best during this boss thread!
