#

ahoyhoy!

#

brb, need to manouver my ship on the game i'm playing

uncut urchin
#

oh?

#

which game

#

anyway

#

i'm still working on it but she was borne in nagasaki and her parents weren't too well known, her father being mostly away so she didn't see much of him, her mother? Dead. Was left in a building to die by a pro-hero. (Even if it wasn't on purpose she blames him)

her father provides her with simple money to live, which is why her costume in general is so rag-tag, actually her goggles are modified "eraserhead" goggles she bought in the market. She modified it by added cloth so it's more comfortable to wear, and fixed the straps and lenses.

i'm still doing a bit of research on stain but she met stain around the same time stain started getting traction

civic swift
uncut urchin
#

her real story can frankly be majorly ignored at the start of her life since nothing major happened

civic swift
uncut urchin
#

you should totally watch the anime ngl

civic swift
uncut urchin
#

About right

#

she for a while meets up with Stain, that's about as much, she also had a run-in with Dabi once

#

she didn't die but it left her with some burns and scars

civic swift
uncut urchin
#

post

#

i might make it pre-stain because Dabi did have some moments before then

civic swift
#

i see, so they were doing vigilatieism by the time they met Dabi

civic swift
#

first the hero's failed to save her mother, then they failed to save her

uncut urchin
#

ooo

#

maybe

#

regardless she generally dislikes both villains AND heroes

civic swift
#

then maybe that can have some impact on when stain was offered a place in the LoV?

#

depending on how close they are

uncut urchin
#

that would be a crazy idea yeah

#

i love that

#

stain also didnt join the LOV because he likes all might more than them

#

but this adds additional reasons

civic swift
#

how close are stain and Koneko? like, did they just hear about his ideals and resonate with them, or did they actually meet him, work with him etc?

uncut urchin
#

actually helped stain, she helped him track people down

#

her quirk lets her single-target track people like ragdoll's quirk "search"

civic swift
#

alright, so then their dislike of villains and dabi in particular could logically be an extra point swaying stain away from the LoV

civic swift
#

like source of energy, unusual uses etc

civic swift
#

sorry

uncut urchin
#

her goggles are a support item with multiple functions and reasons. One being that because of her quirk she has terrible eyesight

effectively how it works is that she needs to have seen the person before she can use her quirk on them. She gets constant flashes of what they're seeing, hearing, smelling or doing and even some of the person's memories.

It has a range of 15-20km

It can give her a big migraine for her to use it for too long, and her quirk gets less effective over larger radiusses, with being at 20km it's almost like her radar can barely pick it up.

#

theoretically it works more like a single-target radar

civic swift
#

ooo, interesting

uncut urchin
#

the moment the person gets out of her range, it just stops dead in its tracks

civic swift
#

kinda reminds me of Harry Potter getting visions of the snake

#

because of the horcrux

#

have they tried using it in combat to help predict attacks and things? not sure if it would help or hinder more

uncut urchin
#

she can't really predict the future but if she tries hard enough, she could probably get the memories linked to how they fight

civic swift
uncut urchin
#

probably could work but it wouldn't be AS reliable as foresight

#

since it's more like flashes of memories rather than constant

civic swift
#

it would probably be great training tbh. wish the amount of information and sudden perspective changes and things, it would probably make them resistant to disorientating effects like sonic attacks and some quirks

uncut urchin
#

mhm

civic swift
#

question: if they can recieve memories and vision and sences, could they potentially also send her own senses to other people to disorient them?

uncut urchin
#

it's a one-directional thing

#

she can't send information, only receive it

civic swift
#

ah, alright

#

i'm assuming no, but can people tell when she is recieveing their memories and senses?

#

aside from visual ques from her

uncut urchin
#

her eyes actually do show it, yes, originally i was thinking of how hagakure's eyes look

#

just a different color

#

most of the time, her pupils are very VERY small

#

this IS her blank expression

image.png
civic swift
#

so it's just visual tells then?

uncut urchin
#

yeah

#

Mei hatsume and Toru hagakure's pupils are somewhat similar to what she has when she's ACTUALLY using her quirk

civic swift
#

ahh, ok

civic swift
uncut urchin
#

It's bad enough where she needs glasses, she's far-sighted so she can't see things from close

#

i was originally intending to give her a secondary ability through her quirk considering some people's quirks have TWO different applications

civic swift
#

brb gotta manouver again

uncut urchin
#

lol

civic swift
#

really poorly explained that lol

uncut urchin
#

i

#

i just got filtered again

#

i swear it's literally just a last name

#

I mean fair, originally i wanted to lean into the second part of her name aswel "Hazard"

civic swift
#

back

#

sorry for the poor explaination of what i meant, but i saw my ship almost miss the island i was going to lol

uncut urchin
#

hahaha

civic swift
#

her eyesight might have helped push her way away from more legal use of her quirk like policing and the army, and maybe even hero schools, like an extra nail in the coffin of her respect for heroes

uncut urchin
#

there might be the possibility, and this is going deep into the "ifs", since todoroki has two quirks, that her father's quirk was something interesting too.

#

That could be cool, but it doesnt need to be "majorly useful"

civic swift
#

true

#

it could be somethinc niche that has unusual uses

#

or just helps with support in her quirk usage

uncut urchin
#

Or helps with escaping tight situations

#

Smokescreen, or like creating a cloud of dust

civic swift
#

hold on

#

why not have her be able to send some of her senses too, like a flash of them?

#

that would fit perfectly for escape, and with her quirk

#

while could be made very hard to do consistently making it not so good for constructive use

uncut urchin
#

that works

civic swift
#

or be painful for people to recieve/overwhelming for normal people etc

uncut urchin
#

i'll see if i'll go for a fusion quirk or for a more extensive original quirk

civic swift
#

would you like to see one of my quirk ideas?

uncut urchin
#

sure

civic swift
#

alr, gimmie a sec and prepare for a wall of text in two messages

#

MHA character idea 1

◦    Name: The thermodynamic hero, Inductive
◦    Quirk: Thermal transfer- can transfer thermal energy from one object to another using their body as a medium. Can also store thermal energy from objects in their body. More resistant to heat, but not immune. Uses more stamina depending on the thermal conductivity of the material/s in the transfer and the temperature difference of the two materials
◦    Suit: skintight suit made of a highly thermally conductive material, with fins along the arms and back of legs to use as heat sinks. On back would be a thermal storage unit of some kind (ie; water tanks) to store more energy, a heater for said storage and a larger heat sink array. Daft Punk-style helmet would have a built-in communication piece, built-in breathing gear/air filter and a retractable gold visor to protect face from close heat sources
◦    Support equipment: most likely would require ranged weaponry of some kind as quirk is hard to use at range. Capture equipment such as quirk proof cuffs would be useful for detaining villains. Some kind of coolant spray for rapidly cooling people or materials. Burn treatment kit in thermally resistant case
◦    Deployment: mostly rescue type hero specialising in fires, eruptions, or other high temperature environments, though would likely also be effective against villains with heat related quirks (and possibly cold quirks to a lesser extent)
#

◦ Further notes:

Would likely benefit from melee combat training due to the close nature of their quirk and first aid training would be useful for the application of relief to burns, caused either by themselves or the surroundings.

Possible ranged applications would be superheating the surrounding air, or potentially firing bursts of steam or steam-powered projectiles (may require support equipment).

Quirk may be able to create illusions, mirages, distortions, reflections or possibly even invisibility by the manipulation of air using heat.

Would have to train heat resistance to be able to withstand higher temperatures and energy transfers. If enough mastery is attained, quirk might allow direct kinetic energy absorption. With enough stamina, quirk may allow a substance to reach a temperature of absolute zero.

Many ‘supermoves’ would likely be dependant of manipulation of air temperature, or rapid energy changes.

Could break mechanisms and materials with use of extreme temperature changes (ie; break locks or blow up rocks with micro air pockets).

Support equipment might be power able using possibly absorbed heat from surroundings.

Cold environments reduce ability to absorb surrounding heat to empower attacks, but improve ability to transfer heat from other sources to the surroundings, and vice versa, meaning cold type quirks are harder to fight in a cold environment, and heat quirks are harder to fight in a hot environment.

do you want the two images too?

#

hi

uncut urchin
#

bruh

#

i was dragged into non-existence for a moment there

uncut urchin
#

i love daft punk

civic swift
#

specifically i was imagining the gold one, but i think both could work well

uncut urchin

OHHH

@civic swiftI had a great talk with you about quirks, we should discuss quirks more some time
