When Gargoyle felt one of them cause a little scratch, he roared once more, making them recoil back a little before they saw two giant fists punching them into the dirt at the same time. He looked around for more to beat down and saw some still tangled in vines. He started racing forward to get them as well

One barely makes it through, the other doesn't. http://orokos.com/roll/467559#

When he noticed Lilly having the abominations fall upon her, and the completely ineffectual attack she did on them, he flew over to Lilly, getting between her and the toys, flaring his wings to fully obstruct her from their view. "Leave her alone!" He growled, and did a full tail sweep, bringing it up at the end. He managed to do it in such a way, that while half of them managed to jump over, the other half went down, except the last one. That one went flying into the air, crashing against a tree and then going through it, slamming into another one and becoming embedded in it. He turns slightly to say to Lilly, "Stay behind me and keep them snared and disabled."

Gargoyle smells the other group advancing on him and just uses his tail, deftly knocking their arms around and battling on two fronts. With another punch, the packmaster goes scooting back a short distance before falling down, unconscious. With th that threat down, Gargoyle turned around towards the group attacking him and roars, giving a grin at the sign that a true fight was on his hands possibly

Upon seeing Jann take a nice big blow, Gargoyle uttered a roar the blew the trees back slightly and flew forward full speed towards what appeared to be the boss. He punched and connected with this one in the stomach, completely emptying him off breath, accompanied with a squeaky noise reminiscint of a deflating tire instead. Gargoyle roared with all of his fury into the face of the toy in front of him. "Don't you dare hurt my friends! Try me."

Initiative 18

John looked nervously at Lilly, then back at Jann before stepping through first. He sees it's actually pretty dark in the simulation, even outside of being a sealed room. He smells a little bit to discover it's got a fairly earthy smell and roams around for a moment, touching a tree. He feels the bark and finally decides now is the time to transform, gain some senses back. He knows it'll be still working as Lilly and Jann come through, so he gives a bestial roar that reverberates throughout the forest and lets the beast come forth. He hears his muscles swelling to the point of ripping and tearing through his clothes, and then keep going, he looks and sees the forest crystal clear. His skin turns grey and his nails grow into massive claws, capable of ripping through one of these trees. Schlorp! His tail makes it's appearance as well, shooting out of his back, right above his butt, before slamming into the ground with enough force to shake the vicinity. And finally, his wings come flying out of his back, stretching to their full length upwards. "RRRRAAAWWWWR!" He screams with a bestial fury. He smells Jann and Lilly right behind him, and turns around to meet them, his pose very much changed now. He seems to walk with a confidence like nothing can touch him, his wings cradling his body like a form of a cloak. Somehow, even a small loincloth appeared to keep his privacy in check. He looks down at that, "Hmm... that's new." His voice has changed, becoming this buttery smooth growl of a voice, like it wasn't made for english. "Well, this is the power I normally keep hidden. Impressive is it not?"

John notices the wings for the first time, and stares for but a second before recovering himself and introducing himself. "Hello there, my name is John... Endless possibilities you say? What about...?" John appears thoughtful for a moment, before giving Jann the most dead serious look he's given the entire time since he's been here. It's a look of steely determination, one that means things are about to get heated. "What. About. Rubber Ducky Godzilla?" His face is entirely being serious, with a small smirk being given to show he's only slightly kidding. He leans off the serious look and laughs a small bit, trying to ease any tension. "So what's your name? I don't believe Lilly here ever told me. Those were some really wicked dodging techniques, maybe you could teach me how to be a bit more... agile sometime?" He smiles, and crosses his arm in a relaxed manner. He notices his hair appears to be feathers but pretty much ignores it, the weirdness of the school already making even that seem normal.

So many ideas running through John's head. Should we do something like a giant robot attack, or maybe aliens invade! So many ideas of things to fight! He looks to Lilly, "This room can simulate anything you said?" John had never really transformed in front of someone before, and he wasn't sure how he was gonna deal with the new clothes afterwards part. Maybe take everything off that he could use to be decent and keep anything that'll keep his decency before he can transform... He'll have to ask Lilly. As they continue along, they enter the room to find this man fighting ninjas! Woah, even ninjas?! He seemed be doing pretty well, though he isn't attacking much... maybe a training exercise? In either case, while watching him, John leans over to Lilly and asks "What am I gonna do about my clothes ripping and tearing when I transform? Also, can you dodge like that?"

Who are you? Sum yourself up in one sentence. I am a slightly above average guy by day and hulking monster of pure strength by night Do you have any nicknames, street names, titles, or nom de plume? I just go by The Gargoyle while transformed, otherwise, no other names What is your full birth name? My name John Blake... no middle name, Mom didn't believe in them Where do you live? I used to live in Downtown Freedom City, right by Riverside, but nowadays I live on campus, making sure to visit Mom as often as I can. How old are you? What year were you born (if applicable)? I am 16, born on July 7th, 2000 Physical Traits What is your gender? If not applicable, please explain. Male, though I have found my other form doesn't seem to have a gender. None that I can see anyway. How would you describe your heritage? Rather normal, pretty mixed with a lot of races such as Irish, German, Polish, amongst a lot of others. But in general, this stuff has never really affected me outside of make me slightly more interested in traditions of those main 3 when I was younger. How tall are you? 5'5"... don't call me short, The Gargoyle is 6'5" What is your body type? I'm a bit lanky, surprising considering my actual physical ability even outside of the Gargoyle. Even The Gargoyle is a lot stronger than he looks, we both could be described as "stringy" Do you have any particular weaknesses, such as allergies or physical disabilities? Sunlight while in my other form... Let me tell ya, being stuck as stone while itching my nose has only happened once... never again How do you carry yourself? Are you graceful, or heavy on your feet? Can you be stealthy, do you walk with confidence? I tend to stay low when I'm human, but I walk with absolute confidence as The Gargoyle Describe your skin, eye, and hair color. I'm pretty white, a slight tan to it, a nice blue color to my eyes and a very light blonde hair How do you wear your hair, if applicable? Do you have facial hair? Wait, people style their hair? I thought they just let it go anywhere! That's what I do. And luckily, I have never dealt with facial hair, males in my family tend to not grow any. But now my dream of a luxurious beard shall never be realized! Do you consider yourself attractive? Do others? I dunno, I think I'm pretty average. As for others... I've never had a girlfriend so I'd presume no. Do you have any scars, tattoos, piercings, or birthmarks? Nope Do you resemble anyone famous? Nope Do you have a dominant hand? I can use either hand, but my right hand is certainly the best. And my tail in Gargoyle is about as good as my right hand What kind of clothing do you wear? Just a t-shirt and some cheap jeans... I really do need to find a way to save the shirts when I transform. Do you wear makeup? Nope What is your vocal range? Is your voice distinctive in some way? While I am human, it's pretty normal, a bit deep. However my Gargoyle form is very deep, more a growl than a voice. Do you have any distinctive habits, nervous tics, or mannerisms? Where did they come from, and what causes them? Do other people notice and remark on these habits? Do they annoy you or other people? I do know when I sense a fight starting up, I tend to look around for sunbeams, or where the sun is in the sky. I started having that tic when I learned I could transform. Some people notice it when they know, but normally people don't. It doesn't really annoy me, but nobody really notices so I dunno if anyone gets annoyed by this History Where do you come from? I come from Freedom City. Born and raised here. Have you made any major moves, or do you live in your hometown? See above Do you feel loyal to your country of citizenship? Do you consider yourself patriotic? How do you feel about the government of your country? I dunno... I feel about as loyal as the next guy. Same for just about all of these questions. How do you feel about the place you come from? I love Freedom City. The heroes from here have always inspired me and made me want to be one myself. But my mom remained the most important, so I tried staying away. But with my new form, I have to. It's my duty, my responsibility. Where is your home town? What was/is it like? Freedom City. It's always been amazing, and the heroes always inspired me, beating the supervillains even when it seems they failed. Growing up, were most of the people you knew similar to you, or were you somehow a minority? How did that affect you? Well, I've always had the same endurance and strength and dexterity I had now, so I knew I was different from a young age. Other than that, everyone was similar to me. It just meant I tried hiding my physical abilities. Is there something you've always been really good at or really bad at? How has that affected your life? I'm not exactly the smartest guy, or the wisest. And convincing people is practically negligible until more recently Were there any traumatic experiences in your early years (death of a family member, abandonment, orphaned at an early age)? My dad left me a few days after my birth so... but I don't know him anyway. Mom just tells me he's no longer around with a solemn tone Briefly describe a defining moment in your childhood and how it influenced your life. Seeing a hero save my school from a supervillain. I never learned his name, but it always made me desire to do the same for everyone. Save their lives, make sure it never comes to the point that it becomes that close What stupid things did you do when you were younger? The stupidest thing was probably standing up to said supervillain above... could've ended much worse Where did you go to school? How much school did you have, and did you enjoy it? I went to Freedom City Elementary. I've had about 7 years of schooling and... ugh, the only class I hate is math Do you have any mementos of your childhood? What are they, and why did you keep them? If you have none, why not? No, because I've never been very fond of keeping stuff. I lose things so often it never made sense to keep anything When did you decide to become a hero? Why? Did anyone influence you one way or another in the decision? I've wanted to be a hero since I saw a superhero save my school. However, I didn't because my mom... I didn't want to leave her alone in the world Is the reason you give people for becoming a hero different than your real reason? If so, why? Depends on if they caught me in my other form or not. As the Gargoyle, I tell them what else was I gonna put my powers towards? If I know you while human, I usually explain the above. Not everyone needs to know my real reasons. Do you have any deep, dark secrets in the past that may come back to haunt you? None. At least, none I can think about. Do you represent yourself as being different from who you really are? Why? As a human, I try to stay under people's radar. Don't need to be beat on when I can't necessarily take it. As the Gargoyle, I just be myself... who can be pretty socially awkward at times as well. If you do have these secrets, what do you fear would happen if the truth became known? How far would you go to protect those secrets? For if the vast majority found out who I am, I don't worry too much, but the idea of if they found out about my mom, I would protect at all costs. However, for my mom to learn... She can't find out. She would try to support me, tell me to be a superhero anyway. But I can't let myself die, it would leave her alone in the world Do you have any sort of criminal record? If so, is it public knowledge? Nope. Family What are your biological parents' names? Annabelle Blake and Randy Blake Were you raised by them? If not, please explain and describe who raised you. I was only raised by my mom. My dad apparently walked out pretty early on in my life, some 5 or so days after I was born. Apparently he doesn't like mutants. Mom doesn't talk about where he is now or anything. What was their standing in the community? What did/do they do for a living? They were the average folk, no real reputation, though my dad worked as a doctor of some description supposedly. My mom is a nurse though so maybe an office romance was what made them get together? Again, she won't talk about it. Where are your parents now? My parents... my mom still lives at my house, awaiting me to come home on Christmas. My dad, I dunno. Did your family stay in one area or move around a lot? My family has lived in that house at least since I was born. How did you get along with their parents? How do you get along with them now (if applicable). I get along with my mom great, both back then and now. Didn't get along with too many people so I was always a bit of a momma's boy. How do your parents view you now, or how would they? My mom has no idea about the superheroing, and I want to keep it that way. She would be proud and send me to go do more because she always wants me doing as much good as I can. However, my dad only knows I'm alive and that's the extent of my knowledge. I don't know how he would feel, but I presume he would be proud as well. Do you have any siblings? If so how many and what are their names? Describe your relationship with them. Nope What was your birth order in the family? First! (resist youtube comment joke!) Where are your siblings now (if applicable)? Do they have families of their own? What do they do? See above Do you stay in touch with them or have you become estranged? See two questions above Do you love or hate one member of the family in particular? Not really, just love for my mom and ambivalence to my dad Is any member of the family special to you in any way (perhaps, as a confidant, mentor, or arch-rival)? My mom for putting up with me for my whole life without too many other friends or any family. Are there any black (or white) sheep in the family (including you)? If so, please explain. I am the black sheep on account of nobody else in my family being mutants or having powers. My mom maybe has the power of extreme patience, but that's about it. Do you have a notorious or celebrated ancestor? If so, please explain, including how it has affected your life. Nope Do you have a partner and children currently? If so, please describe them. Nope If you do not have a partner or children, do you want them someday? How firm are you in your opinion on this, and what might change your mind? Possibly children, but definitely a partner. I don't think anyone could ever dissuade me from having some partner in life. What type of person would be your ideal mate? Someone who could keep up with my crime-fighting, and deal with my slightly thick-skulled rashness in dealing with problems Relationships Do you have any close friends? If so, please describe them, and how you came to be close to them. Nope Do you have a best friend? If so, how did they become your best friend? How close are you to your best friend? Nope If you were to go missing, who would worry about you? My mom Have you lost any loves? If so, how did it happen, and what did you do? Nope Do you have any bitter enemies? If so, please describe them and their history with you. Not as far as I'm aware If you have enemies, how do you think they might attempt to work against you in the future? See above What is the worst thing someone has done to you? Threaten my mother. Where do your loyalties lie? In what order? My loyalties... it's tough to put them in any particular order. They all rank right next to each other. Probably my mom for most circumstances, but if I eventually had to choose to stay a superhero and save hundreds, no thousands of lives... I may give up my last family member for that. Who or what do you trust the most? Why? My mom cause she has been there my whole life. She is my mom! Who or what do you despise? Why? None except despicables because... well it's in the name. They're despicable What qualities do you admire most in other people? Are these qualities you possess? A certain goodness and willing/wanting to protect. I would say I possess those qualities. What qualities do you hate most in other people? Do you have any of those qualities? Those who are too selfish to save another. Those who can't feel any need or want to protect someone other than themselves. No, and thank god. Do you have a secret identity? If so, who knows it? Do you hide it from people who are close to you? Why? Yes. Very few if anyone, probably the people at Claremont now at some point. I hide it from my mom to stop her from trying to tell me to keep doing it. Superheroes can die. I don't want to have her try and figure out a way to say "I'm ok with you dying before me." Because she would. Do you work well on teams and in groups? Are you a leader or a follower? I've never worked in a team before so I dunno. Are you on a super team? If so, how do you get along with your comrades? Do you trust them, or do you have secrets from them? Nope Are you a member of any church, fraternal organization, club, committee, political party, or other group? How much time do you spend on that? I go to Claremont now, does that count? Personality & Beliefs Who are your heroes? The heroes of the city! And one particular one who saved my school when I was like, 5. Never learned his name though... Did you ever become disillusioned with former heroes or idols? If so, why and what were the circumstances? Nope Do you like being a hero? If so, what is the most rewarding part? If not, what makes you keep doing it? Yes, I've always wanted to be one. The most rewarding part is just the feeling you get from saving someone. Is there anything that would make you give up hero work, or even switch sides? Hero work... If ever I felt the city was safe enough that I wasn't able to do much more, I might retire. Maybe I'd retire if I started a family, only going back in when the city desperately needed me. What are your short term goals (what would you like to be doing within a year)? Be a fully-fledged, well known superhero. What are your long term goals (what would you like to be doing twenty years from now)? See above. What is your greatest fear? Why? What do you do when something triggers this fear? Being alone myself. No family, no friends. Is there anything you would give you life for? This city. I would give my life to know I have protected this city. How do you feel about money and material wealth? Do you desire it or disdain it? Are you miserly with what you have, or do you like to share? Is it a mark of success, or a means to an end? I don't fully care one way or another. Nice to have, but not necessary. How do you generally treat others? I try to treat others with as much respect they give me. Are you a trusting person? Has your trust ever been abused? Depends on the level of trust. I've never had my trust abused before, not that I can remember. Are you introverted (shy and withdrawn) or extroverted (outgoing)? Do you have a lot of self-confidence? I act introverted when I can't be Gargoyle, however when I am, I am very extroverted. I have oodles of the stuff. How do you act around attractive, available members of your preferred sex? Just myself. Or at least, that version of myself. What are your most annoying habits? I love Mountain Dew, I tend to have one every morning. Do you feel contempt for any general category of people? Who are they, and why? See question of anyone I despise What is your favorite food? Do you prefer any particular type of food? Do you take the time to enjoy your food, or do you eat as fast as you can? I love cheese. Any kind of cheese, I wanna eat it. Why is it not in my mouth? Be right back, now I need some cheese What is your favorite drink (alcoholic or otherwise)? Mountain Dew What is your favorite treat (dessert)? Cheese? Does cheese count? Are there any specific foodstuffs that you find disgusting or refuse to eat? Salads. Just never have liked the stuff What is your favorite color? Are there any colors you dislike? Red, no real colors I dislike. Maybe stone grey, because when I see that, it typically means I stayed out too late and I'm in trouble now What sort of music do you like? Is there any that you hate? Rock, and I hate rap If you have a favorite scent, what is it? Ooo~ I love the smell of bananas. Seriously, the whiffer on my other form makes bananas smell amazing... and so do Jalapenos for some reason Do you have a favorite animal? I like wolves, bats are also pretty cool. I love owls What is your most treasured possession? Why? I don't have one Do you enjoy "roughing it", or do you prefer your creature comforts? I prefer creature comforts, but I certainly can rough it Is there a job or a task you would absolutely refuse to do? Work sewage. I would never be undefended but I had to fight down there once. The smell will absolutely destroy my nose Do you consider yourself a spiritual person? If so, how do your beliefs affect your life?How important is it to you? Not really Was your faith influenced or molded by anyone special? Maybe my mom, but that's just because we both aren't very religious people If you belong to a religious organization, how often do you attend? Do you have a specific place of worship, or friends within the organization? How much do you agree with the beliefs of your organization? See above Could you kill? Have you killed? It would depend. And I have never. What circumstances led to you forming that conviction, or taking that action? It would depend on very extreme circumstances. If I felt there could and would be no reform, I might kill to save people. Otherwise, I don't feel I could just kill someone. Are there circumstances under which you believe it is permissible to kill? What are they? See above How would you react to watching someone kill another person? Would your reaction be different if the killer was a friend or an enemy of yours? It would depend on if the circumstances were the same as above, if they were, I would be understanding. If not, it would then be a fight to bring them in probably, regardless of friend or enemy How would you react if something important was stolen from you? My school books were stolen once and I just got new ones because I couldn't figure out who did and even if I did, I couldn't show my powers How would you react to public humiliation? About as well as I usually do, sit there and take it How would you react if a good friend or relative were purposely or accidentally killed? Has it happened to you? I'm sorry, I just saw only red there for a moment. What were we talking about? What do you consider to be the worst crime someone could commit and why? Choosing not to save someone when you had the power to do so. If your life were to end in 24 hours, what five things would you do in those remaining hours? I would tell my mom, and defend the city in every capacity I could until I died. I only want to do those two things Career & Training Do you have any special training in your hero skills? If so, where and how did you get it? Nope, all self-trained Who taught you the most about your heroing abilities? What was your relationship with that person? Myself... Do you have any particularly unusual skills? How did you acquire them? I can smell really well, that count? I just had them Do you do something besides hero work for a living? Have you ever done anything else, or do you plan to? Not currently, though I am looking for some work... something to do during the day What is your preferred combat style? Hit them until they are down. If still conscious, keep hitting. If hitting stops working, pick up a car and hit them some more. Have you ever received any awards or honours? Nope What skill areas would you like most to improve in? Is there anything you can't do that you wish desperately you could? Possibly mental attacks, they tend to really hurt me. How do you act around people who are more skilled than you in areas you'd like to improve? Are you jealous, or do you try and learn? I watch and try to learn at least the basics Lifestyle & Hobbies What is a normal day for you? How do you feel when something interrupts this routine? I wake up, drink a mountain dew, go to school, play some games until night time, then go out as the Gargoyle to save people. I don't necessarily like it, but I deal with it Do you have any hobbies, or interests outside hero work? What are they, and where did you pick them up? I like playing video games, always liked them What do you do for fun? Play video games and stop criminals Do you have a costume? What does it look like? No, Gargoyle rips through anything I could wear, and anything that has been able to looks ridiculous on him. How do you normally dress when not in costume? Just like a casual citizen What do you wear to bed most nights? Just underwear, maybe some shorts Do you wear any special jewelry? What is it, and what does it look like? Nope Do you have a special place where you keep your valuables? Nope What's your preferred means of local travel? How about long distance? Flying and flying. Tiring but nothing beats being so high up in the sky. Miscellaneous Have you ever made a will, or tried to make arrangements for your death? What provisions did you make? Nope If your features were to be destroyed beyond recognition, is there any other way of identifying your body? I dunno, maybe I'll turn to stone when I die. What would you like to be remembered for after your death? My determination to protect all Do you believe you pose a threat to the public? Why or why not? Yes, because I know mind control is all too easy on me. Then you have a very powerful, very hard to hurt person flying through the streets trying to hurt anyone What do you perceive as your greatest strength? My strength hahah What do you perceive as your greatest weakness? My mind As a player, if you could, what advice would you give your character? Speak as if he/she were sitting right here in front of you. Use proper tone so they might heed your advice... You should try focusing on life that is around rather than those you couldn't save. Find more friends, fight the bullies. You're stronger than you realize.

He blinked as fire and smoke kept erupting from the cowboy left and right, and then all just finally stopped. He breathed a sigh of relief, wondering how it went from threats of burning to nothing. He took a look at Harper, and found that he had all but turned into water. He chuckled and said towards Harper , "Oh, so that's your power. I honestly don't see trying to fight the classically opposed element, fire, but whatever I guess." John looks at the person who he thinks is called Tex, because he hasn't heard another name from anyone else yet, "Tex, I feel ya, but trust me, this guy isn't worth the time. If you wanna goad him into some sort of sparring match to try beating some sense into him, come call me. I fully believe I could now. But right now isn't the time." With Tex's release Harper, John lets go of the breath he had apparently been holding and turns to Ralf, "Well, I asked for help to find the dorms, and I got people being almost boiled. Admittedly not how I thought I would start my new year here, no."

Bluff it till you make it: 1d20+8 19

When John sees this, he steps up to this cowboy guy (seriously, the weirdest fricking day) and while getting a big ol' whiff of his smoke says "*cough cough* hey, trust me on this, he ain't worth the anger. Just watch that look of terror and know you've won already." He claps his hand on the cowboy's shoulder, trying to assure him his words were true

DC20 will: 1d20+1 6 I hope I did this right

As John only was feeling ready and getting ready for a fight, the pheromones didn't affect him too much, but even he noticed the blonde guy go from angry to much calmer. When he claimed it was the plant lady, he John didn't feel like he was lying, so he turned to her "Hello, my name is John, sorry about this being the way we meet. I do feel he wants to figure out exactly what I can do. I dunno if there are any dark places around that could provide a safe place for a friendly sparring match? Just to get it all out of his system? Oh, and what is your name?" The air really did smell sickly sweet, but somehow in a good way rather than a bad.

Ralf just suddenly stretching his arm so casually 10 feet did surprise John, but he honestly had already seen weirder while here, he just looked more normal than most when he did it. He just assumed this was natural, something new he'd have to get used to. John gives a tiny chuckle and decides to mess with the Tennessee boy, layering every ounce of sarcasm he had into his voice, Ralf filling him with a small amount of confidence, but not insignificant amount of it. "Yeah, I'm so scary. Such a creature of the night, able to use cars like bats. You really think that's my power? Nah, I just have some night vision is all. Really, I still don't know how that qualified me for here, but I suppose you'd have to see it in action. Even a dark room works." He says, curious on the reaction he might garner. At that moment, he realizes that the person he's been talking to has just casually claimed Nazi's are still around. "Wait, Nazi's are still around? I thought only Neo-Nazi's existed anymore, and they weren't like the Nazi's persay but I admit to not a ton of knowledge on them."

The young and still fairly inexperienced hero actually had no idea who Tennessee was, but figured mentioning that based on his tone was not the best of ideas. He had no idea about this new person. Seemed friendly enough, and he did come to aid him it appeared, he was obviously not part of their crowd. He mentally breathed a sigh of relief but remained a touch guarded against this new person as well, no reason to go blindly trusting. "In all honesty, even if I wanted to, my power doesn't really work right now. It only works at night... or at the very least, it works at it's best at night, and otherwise is kinda hard to explain. But even still, you never said your power, just your parent. In my experience, powers don't transfer from parent to son." He decided it was only fair that he says somewhat of his power, he could explain rather easily but decided it might be more fun if this bully caught him during a point he could legitimately defend himself during. Give them the hook, a bully will chase it every time. "You certainly seem to have manners, Guy-Who-Just-Walked-In... My names John, what's your name?" He said to the newer arrival, clearly trying to be jestful in nature.

John definitely started noticing the tell-tale signs that these were not exactly the most savory of people, especially the one who had started looking around like he was checking for staff which John already knew, there wasn't any nearby. The blonde teen, who appeared to be the ringleader of this group, sidled up next to John, asking him about what he can do, and still John wasn't sure if he would want people knowing what he can do, but he already gave this kid far too much ammo as it was, trying his best to quickly size up the situation, and if he could possibly escape it. Maybe joking along with this one will help? He had only ever dealt with one set of bullies before, but they always hated when he joked around... stow that option for another time. It was early morning so he couldn't easily show his power if needed. "Well, I'm the newbie, can't I ask the first question? What can you guys do? Seems a fair trade, what can you do vs what can I do." John says this, playing up his naivety. Sometimes appearing dumber than you looked was better than showing all you can do from the start. He kept a close eye out for any and all kinds of attacks, what if this kid threw fireballs or something... Surely this wouldn't progress to that point though, he had only just gotten his new shirt, couldn't stand the idea of his other form running around in yellow spandex, so regular clothes it was for him still.

John was absolutely stunned. All these people with such weird abilities, there went one that transformed... Ooo! One that had psychic powers, that has to be cool! The majority looked fairly normal, but even normal here seemed very weird. He knew that this was a place for super heroes, thus his choice to keep what kind of school this was from him mom a secret, with some help from the Headmaster, who helped him along into the classes. He was still trying to decide if he should keep the nature of his powers secret or if everyone would already know about his alter ego when another student bumped into him, he thought that one was a bit further away than he was. Being as stocky as he is naturally, he didn't really move, but he moved his body movements without thought to look like he was hit a lot more than he felt out of pure habit. "Oh, I'm so sorry, this place is just so new, and all these weird abilities on display, I guess I wasn't paying attention." After he said this, he noted that the taller blonde boy had a few friends to go along with him. None of them seemed exceptionally strong, but then again, neither did he. He sees the familiar smirk, the all too familiar glint in their eye that always seemed to accompany the bullies of the world. He shook his head slightly and just hoped he was imagining it, why would superheroes be bullies after all? He gave him the benefit of the doubt and said, "There are ropes? Do you mean where the dorm rooms are, they seem to have neglected that in my tour... as well as neglected a tour... Wow, what a bad start now that I think about it."

Maybe The Rock and The Gargoyle meet up, Gargoyle being bullied in his human form as per usual. The Rock notices this and tries to help, and ends up figuring out about Gargoyles other form. Eager to see someone who is similarly stone-esque, they wait for night fall and have a fun time beating down baddies all over town. Unfortunately, Gargoyle doesn't pay attention to the amount of daylight coming up and ends up being turned to stone. The Rock doesn't see this as a problem and continues carrying him around town, just thinking his new friend is just a bit tired. He continues like this for the day, until The Gargoyle ends up in a dark spot to change back, or otherwise it becomes night again. The majority of the story probably would be focused a lot more around Rock and Gargoyle hanging out during daytime, with Gargoyle being fully aware he is being dragged along towards enemies while he is extremely vulnerable and just weeping tears of joy that he remains alive.
