what's this? Schrift has an rp? He disappears for months and comes back with this? He's super totally awesome? Awesome-sauce.
It's a normal day for you, you're out doing your thing. Walking in the park, working on the streets, going out with friends, you know, the usual. But then all of a sudden a figure approaches you, someone wearing a black formal suit. In one hand they hold a letter, as they approach you and congratulate you for being qualified enough for the god of highschool tournament. You know what the tournament is, it's massive and a global event even bigger than the Olympics. The god of highschool tournament is a fighting tournament where the winner will have their wish granted. best part of the prize is that the wish can be anything from bringing back the dead to becoming a god. You agree to join the tournament, with your reasons to join varying widely.
Now let's track back a year to the previous God of Highschool tournament. The first public God of Highschool tournament, before that it was a secret underground tournament that only the best martial artists and fighters in the world knew of. It was held by a man known to the world as Mujin Park, a member of the organisation known as the six. When the tournament was publicised, it revealed to the world the hidden power of humanity. Fighters such as Han Daewi, Mira Yu, Ilpyo Park(not related to Mujin Park), all showing the world what martial arts were truly capable of. However it was during the final that things would take a turn for the worst. It was during the finals that a mysterious figure attacked the tournament. Witnesses claimed that a giant sword was dropped from the heavens towards the tournament, however it was briefly held off by an opposing force stopping it from falling. But then above the sword the unthinkable happened. A being of white fell from above it. A being that could only be described as a god. This event was known as the descent. There are so many retellings of it, it's almost impossible to know exactly what happened. Though everyone does agree on a few things, one being that this event had left a lot of South Korea in ruins with Seol and neighbouring cities having withstood the brunt of the attack.However the world saw the rise of a new figure a man only by the name of Mandeok. He was the one that managed to rebuild what was destroyed. He brought light to an organisation only known as NOX. A group that helped people after the descent. Making shelter for the many that were left homeless, supplying food to those that couldn't afford meals, putting together buildings, giving education at camps designed as a temporary replacement for school until Korea could get back on its feet. And this is only a short list of what NOX had done. All this together, it rose Mandeok to the top as he rose to power within Asia and eventually world itself. Now with Mandeok and NOX managing to single-handedly bring back a country falling apart, the world would soon see the return of the God of Highschool tournament.
Now 7 years after the descent, the world is beginning to see the return of the God of Highshcool tournament. Hosted by NOX, new fighters are being selected. However this tournament is different to its predecessor in a few ways. This time the tournament is global, meaning fighters from around the world shall be joining. Since the last God of Highschool, technology has managed to make significant steps forward. This has lead to the advancements of nanobots seen in the previous tournament. Previous iterations of the nanobots were able to heal fighters with injuries that would normally take months or sometimes years to heal to heal in a day. Now with stronger nanobots that can heal and keep a fighter up in fighting condition for longer, the God of Highschool tournament couldn't have been safer. The implementation of wristbands that monitor a fighter has been kept from the previous tournament. These monitor a fighter's Level, a fighter HP and their God Points(GP). A fighter's level is determined by their physical strength and their speed, their HP determined by their health and ability to continue fighting and their GP measured by their ability use of Charyeok. Though just because someone has a higher level than someone, it doesn't mean that they will necessarily come out on top in that fight. Adding onto levels, some martial arts can increase a user's level. This means their true level can be hidden if the fighter simply doesn't fight with their martial art.
Since the last God of Highschool tournament, the use of Charyeoks have become somewhat more common amongst people. Though still rare. If you're wondering what a charyeok is, it literally means borrowing power from a "god". Charyeoks are massive parts of a fighter's arsenal due to how powerful they are. Borrowing power is not limited to gods as it can also be borrowed from demons, monsters and even human ghosts. Upon accessing that god's power, they're able to shape it (through their imagination and empathy) as their own unique ability. Charyeok varies greatly, seeing as how the way it appears depends on the entity giving power, the user's imagination and personality, as well as their own innate power/energy. There are multiple types of Charyeok that exist in this world. The first type is Weapon Summoning/Reinforcement: Pretty self explanatory, this is when Charyeok is manifested as a force that the user summoned as their weapon and/or uses to bolsters their current weapon. The Second type is Hero Summoning: This is when Charyeok is manifested as a distinct entity or object which the user can control, usually based on a deity, hero or beast with a significance in human history. These entities/objects can also be 'equipped' to the user, altering their appearance and increasing their natural skills. And finally, Parasitic: This type of Charyeok manifests itself as an entity that lives on a part of the user's body, spreading and growing more powerful with every use. It is currently unknown what will happen if it completely spreads, but it is assumed that the user will gain vast power or be consumed by the entity. Though there are more variations, these are the main/most common Charyeoks. However not everyone can form that contract to have access to a Charyeok. Because of this some humans fight purely with martial arts or even better, a National Treasure.
National Treasures, or Halidom in Vatican, are items from human history that gain a significant amount of fame and as such are well coveted by persons for their power. They each have a will of their own and chooses a master who is most worthy of them, this choice is called the National Treasure Certification Exam. This exam seems to involve a voluntary response by the treasure to its owners, e.g. teleporting to Yu Mi-Ra which proved her ownership. There are different types of National Treasures and, as such, they each have a different appearance. Some of the treasures are even capable of changing their forms. These weapons range from swords to bats, knives, guns, even rocket launchers. Though abilities granted by National Treasures may vary, the most common is that they enhance the user's attacks, they can teleport back to the user and they briefly amplify a charyeok user's ability for a small period of time. However do note that National Treasures are VERY rare. Maybe rarer to own than a charyeok. And owning one doesn't mean that you will have the powers that it can grant, that ability has to be trained and nurtured just like every other skill or ability.
Now lets move onto the tournament itself and its format. It starts with the preliminaries which decide who will be able to pass through to the global rounds. The preliminaries will be held as a free for all, with only the few who remain standing at the end of it being chosen to go to the Global Matches. Compared to the preliminary matches, the global matches are much much harder. Here the use of Charyeoks are much much more common. This will take place on an island in teams of 3, where again it acts as a free for all battle royal style match up, however the last three teams left standing on this island will be able to move onto the final tournament. Here it's an actual tournament, with it working in brackets. The winner of this tournament will go on to claim their wish as the new God of Highschool.

Rules:
- Shockingly you have to follow pokecharm's rules, now I wonder why [insert sarcasm]
- Though this is a heavy combat rp, there will be plenty of times for character interaction
- Romance is allowed though just don't take it too far
- Add the words, Kiwi on Pizza, somewhere in your Bio to show that you've read the rules
- Max number of character is 3, though depending how the rp goes I may increase this number
- Please don't be really OP when making your character, everyone has their flaws. I don't want someone's oc to be an edge lord who ha mastered 100+ martial arts and they can summon the sun as their charyeok.
- Fighting styles can be made up, but as I said for the previous rule, don't make them too op.
- Please remember that National treasures are meant to be really RARE
- Levels, HP and GP will increase as the rp goes on.
- And finally if you're out of the tournament, that does not mean you're out of the RP unless you decide to leave.

Name: Ryo Kengan
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Appearance: Standing at 5'9 with a well defined body, he looks to be around 140lbs. His eyes always seem to have a cold or aggressive gaze as he often walks around with his chin held high. His hair is a white mess of fluff on his head, it seems he doesn't really care about his hairstyle as it constantly just looks messy. Often times they brush past his eyebrows but never on his eyes, those cold blue eyes. He is often seen wearing a white buttoned up shirt with its sleeves rolled up with a black waist coat over it, while on the bottom he sports a pair of black trousers and black shoes. Why does he wear this so much? Mainly because of his occupation as a waiter in a restaurant, he works so much he has decided to just stick with this attire since all he has to do to get ready is put on a waist coat and tie. Though if you ever do get the chance to see him in anything else, feel honoured. Though it would normally consist of him wearing a green jacket with a black hood, a pair of jeans and hightop shoes.
Personality: Off his personality alone, Ryu can come off as cold and distant. The most fitting word to describe him would have to be condescending. He has just a general vibe of him looking down at you, with a short fuse to boot he can be a handful. It doesn't help that he does have a reason to have such a massive ego that it's hard to even give him an ego check. A bit of a hothead who's pride is worn on his sleeves, that doesn't exactly make him all that bad. If you manage to get past that hard rocky layer, he isn't all that bad. Deep down he's just a guy who loves his family a lot who'd rather be baking than bashing in people's heads. While young and naive, in combat he really does deserve to be called a prodigy of martial arts. A quick thinker who uses his absurd strength to help him fight, he really is a force to be reckoned with. In team settings, he is the kind that fights alone. He tries to work alone in teams as best as he can and isn't really much of a team player. Although he does possess a charyeok he doesn't use it much as he sees it more of a burden to him than a skill that he can use.
Fighting style: Genkai no nai ken, Ryo's fighting style literally translates to "the fist with no bounds" and for good reasons. This martial arts style is based upon versatility with its foundations being to turn the user into a literal weapon. Hands like swords, shins like shields, legs like spears, elbows like axes, knees like hammers, this entire fighting style utilises as much of the body as possible. It incorporates the striking style of Muay Thai with the acrobatics of Capoeira, kicks of Taekwondo, plus various other martial arts. It's real strength is its versatility, with it being able to switch its style and rhythm so much so that it's hard to really read. However, Ryo doesn't exactly have this style mastered. It's a style passed down by the Junim line but after the incident from the previous GOH he never managed to fully learn all its secrets. Though he does have its basics down there is still so much room for growth. Ryo's main way of utilising this martial art is by destroying the opponents defence. Often times by breaking them so it leaves them unable to put up any sort of defence and by which time he can go for a killing blow. Due to Ryo's insane natural raw strength, he doesn't even use this style sometimes. A lot of times he uses a style that's akin to a bar brawler, not really taking his opponents too seriously.
Charyeok: The dragon king Yulong, a very very powerful charyeok, this charyeok is a Hero Summoning charyeok. It allows for the user to summon a dragon avatar. However... Ryo isn't exactly well versed with his Charyeok. Infact he can barely use it to a large degree. The most he can do is summon a small wall of scales as a shield, or if he has the stamina he can summon a dragon's head. Although capable of firing a blast of pressurised fire, just summoning the head itself is a massive take on Ryo's stamina and using the blast can leave him exhausted to the point where he will need a moment to be able to fight again. So Ryo only uses this for defensive purposes only or just not at all.
Weapons: N/A
Level: 15 is the true level but most times it appears at level 10 unless he uses his martial art.
Hp: 750
GP: 15/75, although he has a powerful charyeok his control and use of it only gives him a GP of 15 with the use of the head moving it up to 75 briefly.
Backstory: Ryo was born a Kengan, which meant he lived the life of a Kengan for as long as he could remember. The Kengan used to be known for their formidable fighting capability though through history they became lost, their techniques only known by those of linear descent. Ryo grew up fighting for the most part of his childhood, it was just training to become strong. At school he never really managed to gain accomplishments academically. Though it did make him realise one thing, he had strength. He was strong. As a kid he was able to easily over power his own class and even kids of older ages. Combine this with his martial arts and you simply have the whole school under him. However unlike a lot of people with strength, Ryo was a friendly child. He never really got into fights and those that he did he never really tried to hurt his opponents... well except that time he threw an elder student through a wall. When I say strong, I meant strong.
At the age of 10 Ryo's sister was born. A baby girl who was named Rize. So far his life had been going well... UNTIL THE FIRE NATION ATTACKED- oop wait wrong story. It wasn't until Ryo turned 12 did his life fall apart. During the descent, a large part of Seol was destroyed. this destruction had led to him losing his parents and his sister losing her ability to walk properly. Losing his family and seeing what he had left hurt, this changed Ryo. He became colder. He watched others enjoy what he had lost. And to be fair it was understandable why he became the way he is now. Why did he have to lose his family? Why did his sister have to get hurt? Why him? He was kind, he was friendly, he helped others how he could, he was open and selfless. Yet bad things still happened to him. This new thought in his head, that definitely changed him for the worst. He was more prone to aggression and lashing out. It got so bad that he was moved between schools multiple times. However even without his parents, Ryo worked hard to provide for his sister in whatever way he could. They ended up spending a lot of their life living in a NOX camp.
Ryo ended up working his first job at the age of 13 where he began making money so he could support his sister. At first making money was slow, mainly due to the fact that he couldn't really find jobs that accepted 13 year olds but soon he got a job as a parcel delivery boy. It wasn't much but it did help him and his sister. Though this was first job, he soon started to work multiple jobs at once. But even then he had to struggle to help her. Trying to balance school work, training and work was really taking a toll on him. However this toll didn't slow him down if anything it made him work harder to support her. Though you're probably wondering why he was trying to support her if they were already at a camp that was looking after those with nothing. That's simply because Rize's dream was to lead a normal life in a normal home. She wanted to be in a home they could call their own. Ryo wanted to get that home for his sister so he worked hard to provide money so she could live out her dream. And to be fair, he was getting close to it.
However it wouldn't really be long till tragedy plagued Ryo again, or should I say his sister? Around 2 years later she became heavily sick. The cause stemmed from a disease that was spreading in her lungs. This. This shattered Ryo. All that hard work, everything he could do... did it all equate to nothing? Treatment never seemed pleasant for his sister, though time and time again Ryo stayed by her side as he looked after her. And to be fair she did the same for him, maybe not physically but she gave him hope. She motivated him to keep going forward, she was the reason he worked hard. Sure this was a stepback but it only made Ryo want to work harder to support her. For the next year, Ryo spent his money all on her. All of it went towards her treatment. Every penny towards her.
It wasn't long till his luck came through though. While working his usual shift as a waiter, Ryo did his usual rounds. Then he came across one table. A table with a single man in a suit. Nothing stood out about him except from the NOX symbol on his suit. Ryo didn't take much notice of it at first. Little did he know this would be his life changing opportunity sitting right infront of him. Ryo had been chosen to participate in the next God Of Highschool Tournament. Finally. A chance. He could fix everything. He could help his sister, he could bring her dream to life. He could help her. He could finally do something. Ryo didn't waste time accepting this offer. It was official, he was going to participate in the next God of Highschool.
Other: Hm, I've already written Kiwi on pizza on this post somewhere.

Ryo ended up working his first job at the age of 13 where he began making money so he could support his sister. At first making money was slow, mainly due to the fact that he couldn't really find jobs that accepted 13 year olds but soon he got a job as a parcel delivery boy. It wasn't much but it did help him and his sister. Though this was first job, he soon started to work multiple jobs at once. But even then he had to struggle to help her. Trying to balance school work, training and work was really taking a toll on him. However this toll didn't slow him down if anything it made him work harder to support her. Though you're probably wondering why he was trying to support her if they were already at a camp that was looking after those with nothing. That's simply because Rize's dream was to lead a normal life in a normal home. She wanted to be in a home they could call their own. Ryo wanted to get that home for his sister so he worked hard to provide money so she could live out her dream. And to be fair, he was getting close to it.
However it wouldn't really be long till tragedy plagued Ryo again, or should I say his sister? Around 2 years later she became heavily sick. The cause stemmed from a disease that was spreading in her lungs. This. This shattered Ryo. All that hard work, everything he could do... did it all equate to nothing? Treatment never seemed pleasant for his sister, though time and time again Ryo stayed by her side as he looked after her. And to be fair she did the same for him, maybe not physically but she gave him hope. She motivated him to keep going forward, she was the reason he worked hard. Sure this was a stepback but it only made Ryo want to work harder to support her. For the next year, Ryo spent his money all on her. All of it went towards her treatment. Every penny towards her.
It wasn't long till his luck came through though. While working his usual shift as a waiter, Ryo did his usual rounds. Then he came across one table. A table with a single man in a suit. Nothing stood out about him except from the NOX symbol on his suit. Ryo didn't take much notice of it at first. Little did he know this would be his life changing opportunity sitting right infront of him. Ryo had been chosen to participate in the next God Of Highschool Tournament. Finally. A chance. He could fix everything. He could help his sister, he could bring her dream to life. He could help her. He could finally do something. Ryo didn't waste time accepting this offer. It was official, he was going to participate in the next God of Highschool.
