Who: Everyone!
What: Training
When: Morning June 16
Where: Bishamon's temple
Summary: Training sessions for everyone to learn more about their abilities and jobs!



Many people have been wanting to know more about their abilities and what they are required to do here in the Far Shore. So, in conjunction with Bishamonten, the Heavens have seen fit to offer an open training session for everyone to participate in. Here you will be able to learn anything and everything about what you should be able to do and what is expected of you in your new positions.

Bishamon's temple is sweeping and gorgeous, having previously been home to hundreds of shinki. She has graciously offered to hold this training session and will be available to help anyone who needs it.



Equipment

Various kinds of mannequins and dummies have been provided for practice, as well as targets that are either stationary or move, depending on your will. Punching bags, jumping blocks, and a large pool area have also been provided for your use, so that you can find a tool for pretty much anything that you might need to practice. Plenty of practice weapons of various weights, sizes, and shapes are also available upon request from any of the many white-clad shinki that are also attending today.

God Training

Bishamon herself will be the foremost source of information regarding being a god and what is expected of you. It is also encouraged that gods group up together to practice what they've learned and discuss their ideologies. Random groupings can be provided by the mods or you may come up with your own groupings together.

Shinki Training

Various shinki are available to help with shinki training, including Kazuma and all of Bishamon's shinki. Additionally, the white-clad shinki will be more than happy to train you on using the borderline and some of the basics of what is expected of a shinki. It is also encouraged that shinki group up together to practice what they've learned and discuss their ideologies. Random groupings can be provided by the mods or you may come up with your own groupings together.

Refreshments

There is a refreshments table provided. It is covered with light snacks and various kinds of hydrating drinks. There is a little sitting area set up for people to relax in after they have finished their training or if they're even just taking a quick break to cool down. The Heavens want you to stay in good condition!

In Summary:

• Use the state of the art equipment
• Learn about your job
• Form groups to practice
• Don't get dehydrated
• Spectate if you want
• Have fun~

[More or less.]

It is a strain on the body?

[fullcowl]

That's essentially it, yeah. If somebody's not used it... Anyway, I'd like to know who I can and can't use it with. Especially if we end up needing to fight ayakashi together.

[zenithguard]

As long as the sun shine brightly in the sky, I am confident I can handle it. At night?

...Maybe.

[fullcowl]

So it's time of day dependent, huh?

Ayakashi can strike at any time so that's good to know.

[zenithguard]

My strength comes from the sun, so that is essentially correct.

Do you want to try it?

[fullcowl]

That's amazing. I have a classmate at home who's power depends on how much sugar he eats.

[He'll reach out, his hand halfway between them.]

Yeah. I need to touch you for it to work, is that fine?

[zenithguard]

That is fine.

I am Leona, by the way.

[She pulled her glove off one hand and took his hand in her own. Her palms were very very calloused.]

[fullcowl]

Nice to meet you, Leona. Midoriya Izuku. Deku's fine too.

[He'll let the power transfer begin. It doesn't take much longer than a moment before they can access each other's powers. One for All feels like a truly overwhelming amount of power for one person. Too much force in a punch and their whole arm would be broken.

He'll let go as soon as it's complete.]

How is it?

[zenithguard]

Sounds Ioni-

[And then she grunted as One for All's power hit her like a truck. Excess divine power spilled from her, causing her entire body to glow.]

That...is VERY intense. You should be careful with that kind of power, Midoriya.

[fullcowl]

[He cuts off the power for now.]

I know. I injured myself... a lot before I got used to it.

[His right hand is slightly mangled. Like he broke it several times over and it never quite healed properly. Not to mention the scars running along his right arm.

He frowns.]

I wonder if I can tone down how much I'm sharing with somebody.

[zenithguard]

That is good.

[Wait that came out wrong.]

Not...that you injured yourself, but that you were willing to risk doing so. Commendable.

[fullcowl]

I just want to protect people. If I can help, then I will.

The injuries didn't matter that much to me. But after I couldn't help somebody I really cared about... That's when I resolved not to go overboard again. I'm no help to anyone when I'm that badly injured.

[zenithguard]

Those are words well said and a lesson well learned.

Forgive me if I'm prying, though, but you sound troubled about this.

[fullcowl]

... I broke my arms a lot in the span of four months. Um... if I overdo it two more times I'm going to lose all feeling in them.

I've resolved to use only as much as I can comfortably handle for now. But I'm gonna keep pushing myself so I can use more of my power without strain.

[zenithguard]

Oh. Yes, self-sacrifice is all well and good, but don't cripple yourself if you can avoid it.

[fullcowl]

I'm working on it. I think there are a couple of healers here, but... I'd rather not rely on getting healed.

[zenithguard]

I can't imagine why you would.

But you have the look of a strong warrior in the making, Midoriya.

[He certainly didn't look like he was there YET, but it didn't seem polite to actually say that right now.]

[fullcowl]

Thanks. I'm working to become a hero. I'm a long way from it, but I'm working hard.

[zenithguard]

As long as you are working to the best of your ability, you will have no complaints from me.

[But woe betide anyone she catches slacking.]

[fullcowl]

I'm always trying to get stronger.

[Izuku understands if there are people who got roped into this that aren't physically equipped for it. The world doesn't seem to care who's getting slotted into which god.]
