Cipher Academy Welcomes All!!

Cipher Academy is a secret school/organization entrusted by the government with the task to teach, train and guide teens with supernatural abilities. To the general public, this school is nothing more than a boarding school, but inside they're helping the next generation of shadow helpers to grow strong! Cipher Academy: - Beginner students are the ones who've been in the school for up to 3 years. They are heavily monitored and require a mandatory student buddy (an advanced student who'll help them) - Intermediate students have been in the school from 4 to 6 years. They have more freedom to use their abilities and no longer need a student buddy - Advanced students have been in the school from 7 to 9 years. They start training to work in the outside world with other shadow helpers (superhumans who secretly work to help and save others). They are responsible for a beginner student as means to help them become more responsible (You can visit my Cipher Academy Collection for more info) Rules of the Challenge: - Create a new OC to enter Cipher Academy - Your OC needs a supernatural ability, such as super strength, mind reading, talk to animals, etc. - Check the post "Why Your OC Might Need Adjustments" in my "Cipher Info" collection before submiting your OC 🙇‍♀️ There I explain the 3 main points a Cipher OC needs to check to be accepted. As a resume: human, power, drawbacks. - Before creating your OC pls check to see if no one has a similar power yet. If there's a lot of entries by the time you join (like more than 20) I can accept similar powers but pls try to be unique 💕 - Your OC's power needs a drawback, like "power can only work if they say a magic word", "power can only work if both hands are free" or "power can only work if they're always hot", etc. - Your OC can be female, male or non-binary. The uniform is the same for everyone (in case you can't see it clearly, those are pants) and you can mix and match longer and shorter options; also you can give them different shoes, but they need to be as comfy and resistant as these bc they'll be using them to train - Accessories like gloves, earings, bags, etc. are allowed and your OC can wear them with the uniform, so long as it's nothing that changes the appearence of the actual clothes - There's no deadline but if a bunch of people seem interested in this I'll create new challenges for you to draw you Cipher OC in!! ✨😎🌈🎶🍓🌸 (Correction: THANK YOU FOR ALL THE LUV!! There's more Cipher challenges on the way!!) - Check my "Cipher Info" collection for any in-world doubts you might have! I compiled a bunch of FAQ there for everyone Have fun, everyone!! 🎶🌼😎🎨🍓✨🤗🌸🍀💐🌸🍀 I've been really into superhero books recently so I hope someone'll find this as fun as I do skdbsmdm IMPORTANT: I'll need to check your OC before you can post stuff for other Cipher challenges. That's because your OC might not fit the lore in some aspect so I need to review everyone's entries first, ok? 🍀🙇‍♀️🍓

Noah!

First of all IM SORY I TOOK SO LONG TO FINALLY SUBMIT IT

POWER:
Noah’s power is ‘fatigue infliction’ which is basically ‘making other people tired’

About Fatigue Infliction:
There’s different types of fatigue such as Physical fatigue (tired after a physical activity), emotional fatigue (tired after stress or negative emotions or too much happening for you to process), and normal fatigue (tired after not sleeping for a while)

Noah is able to best carry out normal fatigue. It’s the easiest type for him to grasp. Physical fatigue is a bit difficult for him, but he can still do it. And he can almost never do emotional fatigue. With emotional fatigue he has to sort of focus on his target’s mind, and Noah’s not the best at thinking.

Noah needs to play an instrument for the effects to carry out. More specifically, a Woodwind instrument. Noah normally has a flute on him most times, if it’s not confiscated.

Noah can choose a specific target to make tired, or he can make the effects carry out within a certain range. His powers don’t work if the target is too far away, or out if range.

DRAWBACKS:
Noah is not able to use his power without a woodwind instrument
When using his power, he starts getting noticeably tired as well
The effects may not carry out as good if he’s tired

in this picture Noah is a 4th year student at 16 years old

About Noah’s beginner years:
The staff of cipher academy were a bit reluctant about letting Noah pass onto the intermediate level, since they were seeing that Noah wasn’t learning from the punishments for his actions, and that he had a hard time understanding that there are consequences for breaking the rules. They didn’t give any harsh punishments but they did simply try to explain that using his powers against other students is against the rules and not okay. All they could do was take away his woodwind instrument during the only class that he was even able to have it in, even though Noah wasn’t learning any better.

Noah’s intermediate years:
They thought that maybe with great power, great responsibility would follow him. However letting Noah have his flute with him outside of class only allowed him to break the rules more. Of course they confiscated it again, but they really thought that maybe by giving him a bit of trust, he’d be reluctant to break that trust, but it seemed not. Noah sees almost no point in interacting with people. He thinks that assignments and homework are a waste of time, but he still at least tries to put the amount of effort needed to pass. Noah’s a very lazy person. If there’s a way to deal with something that takes up least of his thinking as possible, he’ll do it. This is why when interacting with another student, and wanting to get out of the situation, he’ll just use his powers against them and make them fall asleep. This is partially because Noah has a hard time finding a socially acceptable way to end or leave a conversation. It’s also because he doesn’t want to do what someone is telling him to. A lot of times he doesn’t like being told what he should do even if he’s being a asked politely or even if it’s a reasonable request.

EDIT: I most likely will make another art post showing how Noah will improve from this!
I’ll also try to make a post showing how the shadow helpers found out he had powers and how he started noticing too (No flute emoji 😢)

Of course when Noah was at the beginning level he had a Student Buddy. In Noah’s 1st and 2nd year he had a student buddy named June (I might draw and submit June at some point 💕). But in Noah’s 3rd year he had a student buddy named Rowan. June and Rowan separately tried to explain to Noah why breaking the rules is bad but Noah didn’t really learn. June became a shadow helper when Noah became a third year, so Rowan became the student buddy for him. Rowan was a 7th year when Noah was a 3rd year.

When Noah moved onto intermediate stage, Rowan still felt like he should be sort of a student buddy to him and try to keep helping him, since it seemed like Noah made almost no progress. (Rowan did become a student buddy for another beginner student, but tried to check up on Noah too)

(And yes I might draw and submit Rowan at some point too 🌺)

That’s about it for Noah! I didn’t mean to make it so long oops
It’s just that I had so much time to think about his character while I wasn’t able to submit it yet
Ty for making such a good challenge! I had fun making my character! ❤️🌼

I'm sorry it took me so long to see your entry but I completely missed it among others and just noticed it! 😭😭😭💔🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️ I'm really sorry! But enough about that and more about Noah 👀🌈✨💐💕 HE'S SO INTERESTING!! He reminds me of the story of the Pied Piper of Hamelin bc of the way he affects people by playing an instrument 👌😎 It must be a really helpful ability to have when one needs to incapacitate enemies without hurting them 👏👏👏👀✨🌈 OH! Or even in a medical setting!! Can't wait to see where destiny takes this child skdjdkdk Also, and this is 100% my fault for not being specific, Noah's Beginner years story kinda doesn't fit with Cipher lore, but I'll let you keep it bc I didn't explain things properly 🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️🙇‍♀️ Basically when I said "heavily monitored" I meant that Beginner students aren't allowed to use their powers without supervision so Noah would only have access to instruments inside a classroom and the same instrument would be taken back from him and locked away after class is done. Since I didn't specify this properly, you can keep Noah's lore, but I just wanted to explain things better (also just added that to the text post about classes, so other's know too) 🌻👌✨ I hope this doesn't make you feel bad bc Noah is a SUPER fun character!! 🌺💐💖🌸 WELCOME TO CIPHER ACADEMY!! 🎉🎉🎉
It doesn’t seem like much of a Noah thing but it’d be very sweet if he played lullabies for an insomniac student to help them get sleep- (it’s me I want sleep)
His power is amazing. I am in love with him
Such a cute character, i love him! The idea of making someone fall asleep mid-conversation makes me laugh, it would make for such a good visual gag!
Very interesting power as well, it feels like it would be really useful when it comes to combat & fighting tactics! ^^
