• Welcome back to Pokécharms! We've recently launched a new site and upgraded forums, so there may be a few teething issues as everything settles in. Please see our Relaunch FAQs for more information.

Open Console High

Welcome to Console High, where video characters from many different realities came to hone their skills, forge alliances and friendships, and prove themselves in every aspect of life. The esteemed academy has opened its doors to many new students this year, from mobile to PC. No matter what challenges lie on the horizon, from bullies, to homework, and even giant monsters, life must go on for every student of Console High.

We're on Pokecharms. Follow Pokecharms rules.

If you don't know something about a character, Google it.

The characters should primarily be associated with or originate from video games. So no, you can't be Spongebob.

Keep things PG, though romance is allowed.

Don’t make your posts too short, so no one-liners.

The important rule is to have a ton of fun.

Put Console in your bio to be accepted. It’s just to make sure people read the rules.

This is a spinoff to Nintendo High, so everything canon to that series will also apply to this roleplay. This takes place after Season 1, so here’s the full series if you wanna catch up with it, and all credit goes to Foozle. @D34N.U5R originally made a Nintendo High roleplay long ago, and it was definitely my inspiration for Console High.

Now, without further ado, here's my character:

Name: Hammer Brother

Age: 16

Appearance: He's just a regular Hammer Brother but often wears a red letterman jacket emblazoned with a Bowser symbol (that he wants to remove at some point). He can take off his helmet and shell since they function more as clothes for him. He also carries around a mysterious brown pouch, which functions as its own pocket dimension, which he uses to store his infinite supply of hammers.

Gender: Male

Sexuality: Straight

Biggest Strength: When it comes to throwing and swinging stuff, especially hammers, he’s the best at it!

Biggest Weakness: He has a short attention span, and can be too impulsive for his own good.

Biggest Fear: He’s scared of feeling lackluster compared to his siblings, friends, and to those around him. He also doesn’t want to be a jerk, and definitely not another henchman for some school bully, not after Nintendo High.

Roles: Jock, Class Clown, Hard Worker

Species: Koopa

Personality: Bold, brash, and impulsive, Hammer Bro. wants to stand out from the bunch with his natural charm and comedy. His confidence is second to none, to the point that it gets him in trouble. He spends most of his time either collecting hammers, pulling pranks, and cracking jokes with his pals. However, under his complacent exterior is a Koopa with a heart of gold, an iron will, and a resolve harder than diamonds. He’s a loyal confidant, defending his friends to the bitter end, no matter what struggles befall the plucky turtle.

Relationships: His father is a Dry Bones, and his mother is a Koopa. He has two older brothers, Boomerang Bro. and Fire Bro., who both specialize in different powers and care deeply for their little brother. Fire Bro. has a short fuse and can explode with rage, while Boomerang Bro. only speaks in an Australian accent and is more tactical and precise than his brothers. His grandfather is a Sledge Bro. who was once a demolition worker under the legendary Foreman Spike, but now the family calls him Grandpa Sledge.

Nickname(s): Hammer Bro.

Backstory: Before he ever came to Console High, Hammer Bro. was once part of Bowser’s posse (yeah, that Bowser) and was one of his best cronies. He’d pull pranks, help with his schemes, and even shake down some poor kids for lunch money for the boss. Yet even he felt like Bowser was being too aggressive towards his enemies and even his so-called friends. Hammer Bro. had tried to talk him down on several occasions, but nothing could persuade the King of the Koopas, even the fact that Peach wasn’t into him.

Fortunately, when prom came around, he got extremely sick with Koopa Influenza and couldn’t attend the event, which meant he didn’t have to witness Bowser hold an entire prom hostage with a menagerie of villains. He dodged a maelstrom of bullets, but he couldn’t exactly be seen around the big lug anymore, especially when the news came out to all the parents.

This incident is what drove his parents to have him transfer schools to Console High, and he hopes that he never has to look back.

Goal: He wants to reinvent himself at Console High, separating himself from his old life back in Nintendo High. All he wants to do now is to make good friends, pull some spectacular pranks, and collect all kinds of hammers.

Fun Facts: His obsession with hammers started when he was a young Koopa, when Grandpa Sledge gave him a rubber hammer as a toy, which he still has in his sack to this day.

His father was once an ordinary red Koopa who worked at a castle as a janitor, until he fell into lava. The other employees managed to rescue him, but he became a Dry Bones from the heat. The gruesome incident hasn't stopped him from being a loving husband and father.

Along with some of the adults you'll see at Console High:

Pac-Man
The principal of Console High, his timeless appearance is matched by optimistic belief in his school and his students. He’s learnt many things in his long life, and loved sharing advice with any students who needs it. For some unexplained reason, supernatural creatures, especially ghosts, are terrified of him.

Cooking Mama
Unlike in most schools, the lunches are made with the utmost care, since Cooking Mama is the lunch lady at Console High. She’s always there to encourage students and give a helping hand. She knows everything that there is to know about the culinary arts, and is extremely serious when it comes to cooking.

R.O.B
One of the first androids, R.O.B’s unique methods in education allow him to keep pace with this modern world. He has more than enough processing power to teach computer science, and handle any threat that comes his way. He’s always rearranging the stuff in his classroom, and nobody knows the true cause of this behavior.

Sans and Papyrus
Papyrus is an optimistic gym teacher and head coach who believes that his students have what it takes to be, in his own words, "THE GRANDEST ROYAL CADETS OF ALL TIME." Sans, on the other hand, is notorious for being extremely lazy, even for an assistant coach.

Kratos and Mimir (God of War: Ragnarok)
While an unexpected choice for the guidance counselor, Kratos is a good father to his son, and has learned many lessons on his redemption arc across the Nine Realms. It also helps his case that Mimir is the perfect person to get a student's head in the game, pun not intended.

Slenderman (Slenderman: The Eight Pages)
Do not stick around Console High after dark, for that's when Slenderman is rumored to stalk the grounds, as both the groundskeeper and a security guard. The only reason he's nocturnal at all is that he hates kids more than anything and doesn't want to be interrupted during his shift. He can be bribed with notebook pages, and has a crippling fear of the principal.

I am taking suggestions for subject teachers.

Love this concept. Wanted to say PAC-MAN might be a good candidate for principal, if not a subject teacher

EDIT: Gonna add any more suggestions I can think of down here (iff and when they come to me):

Lunchlady ~ Cooking Mama
Computer Science Teacher ~ R.O.B

I love the idea that one of the oldest video game characters is the principal of Console High, and I can imagine him acting like an eccentric old man. Considering his reputation with ghosts, he probably keeps Slenderman in line.

If you plan on it, I’d love to see your take on a character.

((Mr Game-and-Watch cries in analog))

He pre-dates Pac-Man by a single month

Oh, well, maybe Mr Game-and-Watch is the actual principal, while Pac-Man is the vice-principal, though both give off "quirky/eccentric old man vibes." If you have any ideas on how I could differentiate them somehow, that would solve that issue.

OH no just a minor nitpick of mine. I hate incorrect facts. There's no real 'problem' with it, my smart-ass just couldn't resist correcting you. My bad
 
...Ah, what the hey. Why not. I put in my two cents, it's only right I participate.


Name: Ren Amamiya
Age: 16
Appearance:

Ren Amamiya · AniList

Gender: Male
Sexuality: Straight
Biggest Strength: The strength of his resolve
Biggest Weakness: ALSO His resolve, which has brought him much pain. He cannot keep his nose out of someone's suffering, which has led to more than a few complex situations.
Confidence: Very high. He does not care what people think about him, at all, aside from the fact that he wants people to think he's an unassuming high school student.
Biggest Fear: Being unable to save people
Roles: Pseudo-Delinquent, Quiet One, Mid-Class Sleeper
Species: Human
Personality: Seemingly quiet on the outside, beneath that is a regular young man with a strong sense of justice. He's not afraid to stand up against tyrants, and speak up for himself. Though people usually want nothing to do with him because of his criminal record, he takes it in stride thanks to his friends among the Phantom Thieves. He likes helping people whenever he can, and doing things his own way.

When he uses his 'Joker' identity, he is much more flashy and a bit of a showoff. He is aggressive towards his enemies, and taunts those who dare stand against justice.
Relationships: His friends at his other school (The Phantom Thieves), Sojiro Sakura. No current relationships at school
Nickname(s): Joker
Backstory: He has done several things with the Phantom Thieves; taking down bigwigs with overlarge heads and such. Eventually, Ren heard of a corrupt individual at Console High, and he transferred there. The whole team would've transferred over, but several of the others have obligations. Ren offered to be the man on the inside, so here he is. He's accompanied only by Morgana, who can smell a Palace within the school.
Goal: To find the individual in the school who Morgana smelt the Palace of.
Fun Facts: None.
Console. That needed to be there, right?

Ok, I’m intrigued, big question. I want to bring the knight and Grimm from Hollow Knight in, but the knight doesn’t speak at all. How would that work?

Oh, they’d definitely be mute. Sign language is an option, or they’d just have really deep thoughts and monologues.

That’s correct! While I haven’t come up with any real villains yet, I love the implication.

Also to clarify, he transferred to Console High right? That’s where the role play currently takes place. Otherwise, you’ve been accepted.

Name: The Knight
Age: 16
Appearance:
IMG_9371.jpeg

The Knight is small in size with a black body covered with a blue-ish charcoal cloak. Their head is white with two eye holes and two horns.

Gender: Ungendered
Sexuality: Asexual
Biggest Strength: The Knight’s biggest strength would have to be their ability with their nail and spells
Biggest Weakness: The lack of control over their shade and controlling the shade.
Confidence: The Knight has very high confidence, being silent means they can’t vocalize their opinions on other people. Which gives them a mental edge and means they don’t care.
Biggest Fear: Not being able to save everyone he has come to know during his time exploring the ruins of Hallownest.
Roles: Quiet One, Hardworker, Obedient One
Species: Bug
Personality: The Knight is often described as having a cold, analytic, and determined personality, driven by a strong sense of duty, though the exact nature of that duty is initially unclear
Relationships: Hornet, The Hollow Knight, Broken Vessel (Siblings), Quirrel (Friend), Zote (“Rival”)
Nickname(s): Vessel, Ghost
Backstory: The Knight, much like their other siblings, were born in the abyss through a union of The Pale King, and the White Lady. The pale king was trying to find a vessel to contain the ever present infection from the Radiance. The Knight was not the chosen vessel as it was unsuccessful during the ascent in the abyss. After some time passed, the knight escaped the birthplace and was on the outer lands of Hallownest, before coming back. As if it was called by the sealed vessel, The Hollow Knight.
Goal: To understand more of the shade and control it so it doesn’t get out of control at CONSOLE High
Fun Facts: The Knight actually has no name, Team Cherry just commonly refers to the nameless character as “The Knight” for simplicity.

I can definitely imagine that The Knight enrolled in Console High because there were classes on weaponry and combat. Also you forgot to add the word Console to your character sheet.
