Toshima Prefecture, Local Bar?, ??:?? pm
The Concocter had barely even moved during the minutes it took them to reach her. Other than the occasional sway back and forth as if she were sitting on a swing and the massive purple blade floating around her there was little movement in the cavern. The air was stagnant, sound seemed to echo before being swallowed up by the sheer vastness of the space and the tapestry of grays that formed the buildings, walls and ceiling alike lent a lifeless aura to the surroundings. The only thing the team would hear as they approached was the sound of their own breathing and the gritty crunch of a very familiar chalk dust under their feet with every step.
"You made it!" The Concocter exclaimed with relief in her voice, ethereally swaying to the side as she looked at each of them in turn with wide eyes and a smile. Her posture was almost hunched, as if she were waiting for the other shoe to drop. Her smile twitched when the illusory Gen began to speak.
"Checkmate?" She blinked as he continued talking. "Oh, that is unfortunate," The Concocter nodded along. "Why did you have to come here?" Her expression twisted and her tears formed in her eyes as she clasped her hands together. "I don't want to kill students. I'm so sorry"
Her head jerked sideways once, then twice and then a third time as she kept listening.
"They won't come. I'm sorry. No one can get in here without an invite. I'm so sorry. I didn't want it to be like this. I promise. I just wanted-" The Concocter shook her head. "It doesn't matter. The result won't change. Oh, I'll grant your wish though. What is it?"
Her smile returned when he explained his wish and she was just about to respond that she could and activate her quirk when Jun struck.
"H-huh? W-why?"
Horror and confusion warred on her face. Her eyes, lips and cheeks moved erratically as if she wasn't sure whether she wanted to laugh, cry, cheer or grieve. Finally her expression settled on open-mouthed, wide-eyed surprise when both Gen and Ylva were struck down in short order.
"I did? I did. I remember now but..." For a moment The Concocter was at a loss for words. "That's not what I meant. Why di- No. No, this works. Oh no, there is trouble outside as well? This is good. Who has been making people suffer and die? Does it look like me here? Like Ageru? It works. Maybe you're the one that- Haha. It worke- Yes, I was losing ho- Hmm, what? Y- No price great enough?"
With manic energy in her eyes Ageru leaned forward so far a normal person would have toppled over. Yet nothing below her hips moved, her waist almost seeming like a cut-off point for the motion.
"Ahaha! No price great enough? I know. You understand! I know. You're right. No price too much for your dearest wish. Where is she? Why didn't it work? Do you know? Is it her outside? Can I put everything back to normal? I don't know. I can't? I don't know! Come, make your wish. Try. Tell me your wish? Please, oh please. Make it count. One shot. Don't waste it. Please. Don't die. Please. Please. Please don't die on me."
Her words grew louder and less coherent the longer she went on, echoing as they rebounded between the various structures before finally being swallowed up by the vast emptiness throughout the cavern.
Further away from the center of the pristine 'arena' Jun had stepped into the pair moving to flank The Concocter might, depending on where their feet carried them, finally find something made from a different material than the dull grays around them. Stuck into the ground at various depths and in various locations were a variety of lusterless black blades. Near each were various other cuts in the ground. Places where the swords had been stabbed into and drawn from.
Over and over, many times before.
Slowly, they began to rattle once more.
TL;DR: The Concocter, now introduced as Ageru, was about to grant Gen's wish when Jun cut his illusion apart. Seeing Gen and Ylva cut down in front of her Ageru's mental stability takes a hit and she rambles her way through replying to the information she's been given with limited coherency. Now fully focused on Jun she asks what her wish is and begs her not to die. In the distance, swords once lifeless and still begin to rattle.

Yoko is an intense person. She usually keeps everyone at an arm's length and will use snark to keep them from getting to know her. In some cases, she may outright bully her peers, but it's all a defense mechanism. Having been a victim of bullying herself, Yoko is deeply critical of herself and is sure that if anyone gets to really know her they will turn on her and bully her like she experienced in the past. However, under her layers of sarcasm and glares she can be expected to do the right thing. Her bad temper really stems from feelings of not knowing who she is supposed to be, self-loathing and fear.

Yoko can often be found begrudgingly wearing school uniforms around campus. However, whenever she dresses herself up she usually goes for something warm like a sweater or a hoodie and sometimes even wears gloves regardless of the season. She also always carries an umbrella with her wherever she goes no matter what the weather forecast for the day is. In terms of her expressions, Yoko looks like she's ready to strangle the first person that stops her on the street, and tends to keep her head down while scowling with her red eyes. She keeps her long, blonde hair braided in one braid each on either side of her head because it's convenient, and less annoying than having her hair down.

My life sucks, end of story.
What? That's not enough? Whatever.
I'm Yoko Yanai. Yes, my sister is Hebiru. No I will not get her autograph on your behalf.
It's more accurate to say we're half siblings. I mean it's obvious, our quirks are nothing alike. We're still freaks the both of us, but I'm my own unique brand of freak, I don't need her ick mutation in my general vicinity. Still... If you ask me she lucked out. Out of the two of us she has the better quirk.
Me and Hebiru share the same dad, but not the same mom. If you want to know more about Hebiru go watch some interviews with her, okay? She's already pro she probably has Wikipedia articles about her. Anyway, ever since I was a kid our dad wanted me to work in heroics, doesn't matter what his daughter thinks, right? It's only about what he wants. That's despite the fact that I'm a hideous monster. Did I mention that? If I get worked up, or use my quirk I turn into a disgusting monster. Kids bully other kids for less, so as you can imagine school sucked big time.
When I became old enough to take the UAU entrance exam the old man pretty much forced me to do it. In other words if I didn't tryout for UAU he wouldn't give me my phone back. Of course I had the last laugh when I intentionally sabotaged my chances of getting in by doing absolutely nothing. I liked the way I made him mad that day. I don't give a shit about unheroic behavior, what really matters is just being true to yourself. I often go to the ocean to relax and get away from this shitty world we live in. Last time I went there was a couple of people far out at sea. Further from the shore than any amateur swimmer should be, I know this from working as a lifeguard. I dove in after them, activated my quirk without a second thought and got them to safety. Then I got out of there as fast as I could. You won't see me standing around, lapping up praise like some egomaniac hero. I just did what was right.
Nevertheless, I'm a prisoner to the fate that is being a Yanai, and so I can only assume he pulled some strings and got me accepted into the school through nepotism or something. Very heroic don't you think? I'm the next generation of heroism you can trust shitheads like me.
So what's next for me? If I try to get expelled my dad will just have me placed in another hero school like Shiketsu, so I might as well try to learn something while I'm here.

[b]EQUIPMENT NAME:[/b] Lapis Lazuli
[b]EQUIPMENT RANK:[/b] A+
[b]EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURER:[/b] @kei
[b]EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION:[/b] Lapis Lazuli is an armored umbrella that is made to look like a kanabo when it’s closed. It functions both as a stick Yoko can beat people up with, but also as a protective shield, as she can open the umbrella to hide behind its extensive durability. This piece of gear replaces the user’s durability attribute with its rank.
[b]EQUIPMENT NAME:[/b] Gunbrella
[b]EQUIPMENT RANK:[/b] B-
[b]EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURER:[/b] @bakiriretsu
[b]EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION:[/b] Gunbrella is made to look almost identical to Lapis Lazuli, with the key difference that there is a hole in the top of the umbrella which Yoko can fire from. Using the Gunbrella as a bolt action rifle, she can load it with either rubber or lethal ammunition.
[div][attr="class","body"][div][attr="class","header2"]QUIRK[/div][img src="https://i.imgur.com/OyO2zOn.gif" alt=" "]
[b]QUIRK NAME:[/b] [a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wMpHsBFEjE"]Planet Blue[/a]
[b]QUIRK RANK:[/b] A-
[b]QUIRK TYPE:[/b] Mutation/Transformation
[b]QUIRK DESCRIPTION:[/b] Planet Blue is a quirk that allows the user to transform into a river troll. What this means is that when the user activates their quirk, they turn into a blue troll increasing their muscle mass significantly, as well as taking on the grotesque traits of a troll. While transformed, the quirk's rank replaces the user's strength attribute. While untransformed, the user has a mutation that makes their lungs bigger, allowing them to hold their breath for longer than the average person. The quirk is fueled by emotions. For instance, the user has to tap into their anger to even transform in the first place. Additionally, if the user gets upset their skin will slowly start to turn blue, and if they get too emotional a small, dark cloud will appear over their head and start raining down on them. This is purely for flavor.
[b]QUIRK DRAWBACKS:[/b] The user is susceptible to a variety of elements, being weak to fire, electricity and especially cold which they have a strong aversion to. Once the quirk is activated the user also can't ride cars, or go up stairs due to their weight and density increasing significantly. Quirk overuse will lead to muscles cramping and hypothermia, leaving the user unable to fend for themself.
[div][attr="class","body"][div][attr="class","header2"]SKILLS[/div]
[b]SKILL NAME:[/b] Swimmer
[b]SKILL RANK:[/b] C
[b]SKILL DESCRIPTION:[/b] Yoko enjoys swimming and has gone to classes regularly ever since she was a child. She also occasionally works summer jobs as a lifeguard. All of this has helped her become a very adept swimmer.
[div][attr="class","body"][div][attr="class","header2"]SUPER MOVES[/div][img src="https://media1.tenor.com/m/_0jHJgx6l2oAAAAC/yusuke-spirit-gun.gif" alt=" "]
[b]SUPERMOVE NAME:[/b] Out of the Blue
[b]SUPERMOVE RANK:[/b] B
[b]SUPERMOVE TYPE:[/b] Additional Functionality
[b]SUPERMOVE DESCRIPTION:[/b] Out of the Blue allows Yoko to channel all her anger into the rain cloud that manifests over her head, turning it from a dull gray to a vibrant black with static coming out of it. If Yoko then partially activates her quirk by only transforming her hands and eyes, she is shielded momentarily from the static build-up in the cloud, and can grab it with her hands to aim it and unleash an unwieldy lightning bolt at wherever she aims it.
[b]SUPERMOVE DRAWBACKS:[/b] The lightning bolt in question carries all of her anger with it and once fired, all her anger will be drained from her body, leaving her not only unable to sustain her quirk, but unable to reactivate it due to anger being her quirk's trigger. This means that she experiences all her quirk drawbacks at once starting from the moment she used her supermove, and cannot reactivate her quirk again for the rest of the thread. The lightning bolt is also difficult to aim, meaning it is impossible to use accurately at a long range.

[/blockquote][/td][/tr][/tbody][/table]Nat is the kind of person that is easy to be around, but hard to get to know. She rarely talks about herself unless someone happens to ask directly and can come across as a very private and reserved person as a result, but doesn't actually have any problem with sharing - she just assumes things about herself aren't particularly interesting to talk about and would rather focus on other things due to a lack of self-worth. She is often engaged in one task or another, be it training, working on equipment, helping someone out with something, or keeping busy with a book, game or show of some kind. Although she is almost never idle she maintains a low-energy, relaxed demeanor and way she goes about things and drifts around whatever problems come up in her day. Her lack of much expression makes her hard to read and she often seems disconnected from the people and events going on around her, but she cares a lot more than she shows.
Despite being otherwise very agreeable, she is very insistent about her precise height whenever it comes up.

[img alt="" src="https://i.imgur.com/tOeAHAw.png" style="max-width:100%;"]
What stands out most about Nat is her bright green eyes and blonde dreadlocks that reach just past her shoulders. She's fit with a lean-muscle build and has relatively long legs for her height. She has thin, sharply arched eyebrows that tend to emphasize her otherwise subtle expression. Her face is round with eternally chubby cheeks in that forever baby-face sort of way and tends to make her attempts at sterner expressions hard to take seriously for some. Although she doesn't use much makeup, she does often wear lip stick and a bit of eyeliner. Fashion wise she'll wear whatever uniform, gym clothes or other attire is appropriate for a given occasion, but when she has free reign to wear whatever she likes she prefers things that compliment big sturdy boots and gloves. Her favorite outfit is blue shorts and a long sleeved cropped top contrasted by a red scarf and matching side-tied skirt.
[div][attr="class","body"][div][attr="class","header2"]HISTORY[/div]
My name is Natesa Bee, like the bug and not the letter. I usually go by Nat for short but some people call me Extra-Ordinary as a joke since I'm Quirkless. It's not a bad joke, honestly. Oh, and because sometimes the world has a weird sense of humor, I was born on World Bee Day. I've been taking fighting classes since I was a kid and my legwork isn't the worst.
I'm not very talented at fighting, though, and without a Quirk a lot of people would say its foolish to want to be a hero. I don't care. Even my family think I'm trying to prove something about how Quirkless people can be heroes too. That isn't it at all. Some people want to be heroes because they're heroic at heart, or they want to help people, or maybe they just want people to see how amazing they are in action. I just want to do something useful.
When I was a kid people always talked about wanting to be a hero, to make movies, to own a restaurant, all kinds of things like that. A lot of people end up getting new dreams to focus on or give up, but a lot of the ones I knew didn't get the chance at all. Even though I've never had a passion like that, and I'm not good at much, somehow I'm the one that's still here. Accidents and disasters have fallen on a lot of the people I knew growing up, but I was always lucky enough to avoid the worst of it. I think the idea of wanting to do something useful was always somewhere in the back of my head, but its taken up a lot more of my focus over the years.
The way I see it, if I can save someone then they can go on to do the things they want to do, to have a good life. There's nothing better that I could do with my time than that. So I want to be a hero, and even though it means I have a lot of work ahead of me I managed to get through the UAU entrance exam. I guess teamwork really earns you points even when you're completely Quirkless and just running around kicking things and doing whatever you can to help.

Toshima Prefecture, Local Bar, 8:00 pm
The power going out seemed to have turned off all the lights but one. An ominous, purplish violent glow coming out of the crack beneath the door. A crack that soon became a far larger opening when Ylva's fist went right through it, fitting through the wood like an ornate key through a fancy keyhole. The door fell apart like an ill-fitting metaphor, the wood aging rapidly and crumbling into dust the moment its purpose was fulfilled revealing an opening leading down to a long staircase. Yet despite the door's departure the key meant for it remained. One could only imagine what other purpose it might have.
The stairs themselves fit the aesthetic of the bar rather well. Sleek black and modern looking, they could have been mistaken for being a part of the club, perhaps leading down to an underground dance floor. Were it not for their length of course. The stairs led so far down the bottom could not be seen from the door opening. To the sides the walls were made up of acoustic panels and so close to the stairs there was barely a hand width between it and the railing. Running in parallel with the stairs a mere two meters above them was a ceiling made of the same materia.
Toshima Prefecture, Local Bar?, ??:?? pm
Down and down the stairs went. Slowly the design began to look less modern. Sleek gleaming black faded to functional metal and glass railings turned to solid steel. The walls too changed from resembling those outside to something that would be more suited to a maintenance tunnel as they went on.
Down and down they went.
Industrial steel was replaced by blocks of marble and cement walls by carved sandstone. They'd been walking for so long that the entrance was no longer visible. On either end of them stretched steps further than the eye could see. There were no visible light sources yet despite the fact that the surface had been left behind ages ago there remained just enough light to see several meters behind and more importantly ahead.
Down and down they went.
Had they been walking for an hour? Had they been walking for several? A day? More? It was hard to tell. Even harder to tell was why they were still going. Perhaps it was sheer force of will, maybe the sunk cost fallacy setting in or simply pure stubbornness. Even more supernatural reasons were not impossible. What mattered was that they kept going. Weirdly enough no matter how long they went they barely seemed to tire, even as marble became stone blocks and the walls turned to carved bricks meeting in an arch at the top, slowly increasing the sense of claustrophobia as the ceiling now seemed to have lowered slightly.
Down and down they went.
The stone was worn, a trail in the middle carved out by the passage of millions of feet over who knew how many centuries. Handrails had ceased to be present for quite a while now but a discolored trail on the wall at chest height showed where travelers of the past had placed their hands for support.
Down and down they went.
Even ancient stone ceased to be, the steps now made of packed earth and the walls of the tunnel seeming carved out of the bedrock with hand held chisels. It carried the weight of history. How many had worked on it and for how long? More importantly, how deep did it go?
Down and down they went.
Finally there was a light at the end of the tunnel. A purplish glow in the distance that seemed to get brighter as they approached. When they finally reached the end the group would see an impossible vast cavern stretch before them. The ceiling was so high it would have developed its own ecosystem had it not been for how lifeless the cavern was and the length and width were so immense that the walls were only barely visible if one squinted. One could be forgiven for thinking they had ended up in some manner of strange new world.
A great many buildings stood within the underground chamber, enough to make up a village, town or even an entire city. All of them seemed to be carved out of the same rock that made up the grotto but the styles were vastly different.
Baroque stood interspersed with Shoin-Zukuri and United Silla. Gothic structures shadowed stone pagodas and Joseon architecture. Some seemed carved out with whatever was around, personal and private. Others were grand and vast, the work of years and vast amounts of people. There were few similarities between the constructions, all seeming apart in style, age, shape and form. Only one thing tied them all together.
They were places of worship. Every last one.
For all its vastness but one living being disturbed the disquieting silence until Gen, Jun and Ylva stepped foot within it, one that stood so far it would take minutes of walking to reach and little but its silhouette was visible from where they had entered. An armored silver-haired figure with a purplish chunk of steel floating around her.
TL;DR:
Lots and lots of stairs going down. You have one round to discuss things, come to terms with stuff and be alone with your thoughts before everything goes to hell. Have fun!

Toshima Prefecture, Local Bar, 8:00 pm
The horde staggered under the full partial force of an earthquake, several amongst the figures even toppling entirely and dragging others down with them. Chalky dust puffed up where they fell, wrongful impacts taking off parts and adding more to the layer already strewn across the ground.
The floor was not the only place where dust was kicked up, for a noticeable plume of the more normal kind fell from the ceiling where Ylva tore through it with her empowered strength, the boost narrowly allowing her to fight her way through the increased gravity. Much like Gen's earlier experience Ylva would find the second floor far more normal than the bizarre adventure below. Albeit one that had clearly seen better days. With the scattered furniture and scattered items all over the floor came the realization that the gravitational field was spherical in nature and still covered most of the room she'd found herself in.
Strewn among the mess caused by their fight below was a different kind of mess that clearly preceded it. Torn, wrinkled and balled up papers lay scattered all around the sitting area of the living room Ylva had found herself in. Some could be mistaken for the writings of a sane person, albeit scribbled out to the point few words remained eligible. In fact, only those few words that could be pieced together by the sheer amount of times their shape showed up throughout the pages were likely to be decipherable in a reasonable amount of time.
'Why' 'Can't' 'Have to' 'Gone'
The further outwards from the small table in the salon area riddled with writing implements one got the messier the writing became, as if the writer had gradually gotten more and more unhinged and thrown their failed attempts at articulation with ever greater fury and force. The furthest, most recent pages barely had any of the page visible between the black ink covering their surface.
While attention grabbing it was far from the only thing in the room. Atop a kitchen counter next to the fridge sat a sizeable medicine cabinet and strewn across the table were bills, late payment notices and more. On the walls hung portraits of the same two women featured on the picture in the office accompanied by an older looking man that shared their features. Near the door was a wall-mounted lockbox with glass at the front and a small codepad near the corner. Within was empty hook from which a certain keyring had once hung, a series of switches to turn the lights and power alike in the bar area below on or off, a similar switch to lock the doors and a red button to send a distress signal to the nearest police station.
On a normal day a scene such as the one taking place below would have justified pressing the button ten times over.
Jun's next illusion sent the horde that was still struggling to recover from the previous one into further disarray. The difference between sight, hearing and feeling was enough to freeze the majority in place, the rapid and conflicting changes in sensory data forcing most of their attention to be devoted solely to staying upright. Something many amongst them failed. Even the large skeletal figure seemed affected enough to sway and drop to a knee, the gravitational field fizzling out alongside his concentration just as Jun's strike flew towards him.
At the same time flames of the non-illusory variant tore through the stunned masses. Gen and Jun's combination attack turned the nightmare scene into a veritable hellscape within moments. The streams of fire tore through the crowd, uncanny wails resounding as they were reduced to ashes and then again to dust.
The light in the skeletal figure's eyes dimmed when Jun's punch landed, its bones being rattled just enough for the previous strike's cracks to spread and cause it begin to crumble. With a sound like a dying breath it seemed to inhale in a metaphysical way, the massed influx of dust left by the passing flames streaming towards him and mending the cracks with a purplish-golden sheen not unlike kintsugi. Its gravity field reasserted itself with far more range and more than enough power to drive even the hardiest to their knees, shattering the few remaining Egos and adding their strength to the figure's.
It was too little too late.
The sudden influx of power was too much for its damaged and overloaded form to take and it collapsed into a mere pile of bones, the sole sign of its parting too fading into the same chalky black dust that now covered the entirety of the floor.
It did not remain there for long. Along with the last remnants of the fog the chalk dust on the ground and the chalk dust used for Jun and Ylva's power-ups alike moved towards the gap between the door and the floor as if it were the vacuum of space. Over the course of a minute all signs of the supernatural rapidly drained from the room until it appeared as nothing more than a classy bar, no signs remaining of the impossible scene from moments ago other than charred surfaces and overturned tables.
A fridge hummed beneath the bar counter at the side of the room. One that seemed to have appeared out of thin air the moment the fog cleared yet had been suspiciously clear of activity the entire time. Drop by drop a faucet dripped water into the sink beneath it, one in which the rows and rows of far less unique glasses that stood next to it had been cleaned time and time again. Everything seemed perfectly normal once more. Everything but the door.
TL;DR:
The combo attack of Jun and Gen is startlingly effective, clearing most of the room and heavily damaging the skeletal figure. As a final hail mary it attempts to draw in the power of every single one of the fallen, briefly causing his gravity field to be buffed drastically in both range and power (all the way to S rank) before it succumbs to its own greed and collapses into a heap of bones that then crumbles to dust. Up above Ylva too discovers that the rest of the building is surprisingly mundane and locates several more items of use. Shortly after the boss falls the power-ups fade and are sucked into the gap beneath the door at the other side of the room alongside all the dust left by the horde leaving nought but a startlingly normal bar.
