Killian University

This game is (somewhat loosely) based off of the Super Powereds web serial books by Drew Hayes.

http://www.drewhayesnovels.com/superpowereds/

The premise is that each player character is a Super, gifted with an ability that sets them apart from the rest of humanity.  Killian University is one of four colleges in the country that offers the Hero Certification Program (HCP), whose graduates become superheroes for America and the world at large.  Those who attend (that would include the PCs) are here for the select purpose to become Heroes.  They have been selected out of thousands of applicants to join the program.

The game itself is a combination of slice of life college drama, arena-style competition/battles with classmates and learning what it means to be a Hero, as well as larger arc plot based events.  70+ students are admitted for the freshman class.  Typically only 10 make it to graduation as numbers get whittled down by the instructors removing those who cannot hack the grueling requirements or lack of ability or power or simply not having the mental strength and values to make it as a Hero.  Which will you be?

The game will rely heavily on PC interaction with each other as well as NPCs.  In that way, the game is somewhat freeform.  While there will be certain classes, events, and 'matches/trials' that will have heavy GM posting and a somewhat structured flow, most of the game will rely on the PCs to RP and act independently of needing the GM to direct/railroad.
