Staff Roles

Staff roles encompass the Principal and Vice Principal (the unchanging constant of BUA who will always be roleplayed by a Moderator), Teacher Role, and the Faculty Role. Faculty can be broken down further into Gym Instructors, Rescue Instructors, Workshop Instructors, Guidance Counselors, and Nurses.

​

There will always be one Principal and one Vice Principal, and as many Teachers as there are classes, and lastly, ideally two of each Faculty Role. Currently, there are six Heroics Teachers and one Support Teacher. The maximum Faculty count is currently 12. Together this brings the count to 18 Staff Role OCs max.

 

Staff Role OCs are OCs that work directly with the U.A. High School and are employed by it, participating in educating the students. This is why they oversee certain channels and are expected to skim through them if possible to step in. In the case, students misbehave (ie. fights, breaking school property, etc.) in on-campus channels, bring this up in #staff-discuss. The first to correct student misbehavior in a channel, not explicitly supervised by Faculty, would be their homeroom Teacher. However, anyone can interfere.

​

Principal/Vice Principal

The principal and vice principal are not only the headmasters of the school in-character, but also act as the in-character hand of the Admin and the BUA Moderation Team if need be. The teachers are generally expected to follow their rulings if anything happens because they’re the ultimate authority in-school.

 

They can make in-character announcements to the whole school and can check in with teachers, their classes, and faculty in-character by hosting conference meetings.

 

Not only can they check in with the staff in a scheduled manner, but they can also appear unexpectedly in-character to send students to detention or to oversee how classes and other activities are going. They will always be present during detentions to oversee the students’ behavior.

• Actions they can take

  • Any: the principal works directly with the Moderation Team.

​

Teacher

Teachers are essentially Game Masters for their class, as they plan and oversee the direction of their class within a set time frame. They are expected to make a lesson plan and be an active part of our server to ensure everything runs smoothly in their class. In their own respective classes, they act as the authority. Students are expected to follow them in-character and out-of-character. Should any issues arise, Teachers must report to the Moderation Team in the private “#staff-discussion”-channel.

 

Teachers can, and should, direct struggling students to Faculty characters as to lessen their own workload. Generally, they can do anything a normal teacher can, and a little more. Things such as personal sparring, etc. We expect everyone to know their limits, and all that is truly expected of a teacher is to keep the class roleplays up and functioning.

 

For fun, teachers are allowed to plan shared classes, and even activities off-campus, but please remember to notify the Moderation Team first. If you are unsure about anything related to teaching, don’t hesitate to ask a Moderator.

 

Classes are lettered (H) for Hero or (S) for Support and are numbered in a randomized order. Each Teacher, not only teaches a Hero Class but also doubles as a teacher for a common subject such as Mathematics. Although these lessons will generally happen out of roleplay.

 

In the Heroics Department, Teachers can easily take an example of activities within the BNHA Universe Canon. They are expected to offer the standard lessons and also any other lessons they wish to add.

 

Support Teachers have fewer examples in canon, and for this reason, their syllabus can vary more. This is more free but also gives them more responsibility. Hero Students can, additionally, book appointments with Support Students to get a second opinion on costume designs or any kind of support items. These items may be incorporated into the lessons as well.

• Actions Teacher can take:

  • Teachers can give roleplayers a heads-up about improper IC or OOC conduct in the ooc-channel of the areas they oversee. Always tell the Moderation Team about this via DM or in #staff-discuss.

  • In addition, Teachers may In-character interfering with improper in-character conduct as they see fit, within the bounds of roleplaying. If this was all communicated and fits with the roleplay, there is no need to contact the Moderation Team.

  • Student in-character misdemeanors may result in detention, counseling, both, etc.

​

Substitute Teacher

As expected, if one of the regular Teachers needs help, or if they are unavailable for a time out-of-character, a substitute teacher will help or host their lessons following the Teachers’ lesson plans, or by making their own lesson. Substitute Teachers are something all Faculty can opt into being, and there is no separate Staff Role for them.

 

While substituting, the Faculty member has the same authority as the Teacher. If you need a substitute for your class, please contact the Mod Team. Also, if you wish to opt-out of the Substitute role permanently, please notify the Mod Team.

​

Faculty

Faculty, much like the teachers, can assume the position of a Game Master and plan their own lessons that students must specifically sign up for in the Mundane Lesson period. Their general activity is to keep an eye on what happens in the areas they govern over, and they can step in if they deem the students are going too far and/or badly breaking the in-character rules. Generally, it’s good to ask before hopping in, but some situations can require immediate intervention.

 

Faculty can, and should, redirect students to other faculty members, such as a Gym Instructor or sending a student struggling with self-esteem to a Guidance Counselor.

 

Please notify the Mod Team if you’re unsure about something or have concerns.

 

• Actions Faculty can take:

  • Faculty can give roleplayers a heads-up about improper IC or OOC conduct in the ooc-channel of areas they oversee. Always tell the Moderation Team about this via DM or in #staff-discuss.

  • They may also provide In-character interfering with improper in-character conduct as they see fit within the bounds of roleplay. If this was all communicated and fits with the roleplay, there is no need to contact the Moderation Team.

  • Student in-character misdemeanor may result in detention, counseling, both, etc

​

Gym Instructor

As the name suggests, Gym Instructors are expected to oversee and instruct students in the physical training areas in matters concerning physical training. They can also oversee spars between the students if asked to, and if fights happen, they are expected to resolve and put a halt to these spats.

 

Gym Instructors can also host their own lessons that are meant to hone the students' physical and/or in some cases their quirk-related skills that the students must sign up for. The activities must be physical but there is no need to keep them strictly serious: lessons could range from a game-like capture the flag to running laps and trying to best the students' personal score.

​

Rescue Instructor

Rescue Instructors have the unique position of being in charge of the Unforeseen Simulation Joint (USJ) and overseeing the operations of a student or several if they wish to practice in various environments and operations. Accidents can happen, so the Rescue Instructor is there to help prevent or halt anything dangerous from occurring. They are free to jump into any roleplay occurring in USJ.

 

Additionally, Rescue Instructors can have their own classes within the USJ the students can sign up for, and these classes should be relevant to rescue situations and learning various environments, such as how to unblock a path or how to save someone who has fallen into a frozen lake without causing further harm.

​

Workshop Instructor

Workshop Instructors are mainly expected to guide and oversee the work of Support students to make sure they don’t harm themselves while working on inventions and the like. They’re expected to offer advice and help.

 

They can also host special classes that students must sign up for that relate to their area of expertise: for example, safely building things, dismantling items in emergencies or forcing emergency shut-off to hypothetically help heroes or civilians.

Guidance Counselor

Like in a normal school, Guidance Counselors are mainly here to help the students with their personal problems, such as low self-esteem, quirk counseling, bullying, or issues with the staff, school or their home life.

 

Like other Faculty, Guidance Counselors may host lessons. These can occur even in the #conference-hall-rp to account for more students. These lessons may range from party games and getting to know new people to workshops on how to find out their quirk limits, etc.

​

Nurse

Nurses, like Recovery Girl in the canon BNHA universe, are mainly expected to simply help and heal students of their physical injuries and to help them with matters related to them via their quirk or via standard medical help. Not only that, but they can help students to get accommodations to their physical quirk complications and/or simply offering a vision test or something similar.

 

Like others, Nurses can host special lessons that the students must sign up for, and these need to not occur within the nurses’ office. These lessons can range from basic emergency procedures like learning CPR to identifying how to best help a fellow student or a civilian having an allergic reaction.
