Masks - Freshman Year
A typical Halcyon City high school. But what kind of high school has a science project due on the first day!?! As if summer reading wasn't enough of a bummer. Still, you have heard that the school might be hiding a few juicy secrets - A cult? Some aliens? Teachers with personalities? Someone said the principle is a badger. Nah, it's probably all crap. To top it all off, the powered kids are social untouchables, something to do with a class last year. You're not even allowed to use powers on the athletic field. So to sum up, academics? - soul crushing. Social life? - zilch. Sports? - forget it.
How are you gonna survive?

How to Apply
Submit playbooks in the next section, if you need help or want suggestions let me know. It's not recommended to repeat playbooks in the same party. I would caution someone trying Nova or Legacy, there probably won't be many large things to smash, but if you have an idea you want to try I definitely won't say no. Don't bother with the "When our team first came together..." "Relationships" or "Influence" sections. I want to roleplay the first day.
Also - Tell me about your science project. No volcanoes. Or did you decide not to do it like a cool kid?
