Heyo! This is my original character for the MHA fandom. (Scratch ruining art quality on purpose I swear) Meet Akira Aotsuki. //QUIRK// Akira's Quirk is Phobia, which can manifest an opponent's deepest fears. There are two types of manifestations for Phobia: Type One: Physical Self-explanatory; physical fears Examples include spiders, snakes, needles, etc. Type Two: Experience Experiences that cause fear. Due to the fact that Type Two is not physical, the user, when using the quirk, emits a dark mist/fog that takes a vaguely humanoid shape with a tattered, yellow paper ofuda over the place that its "face" should be. The kanji characters on the ofuda show what the fear is. The target goes into a hyper-realistic hallucination of being in that fearful experience if touched by the smoke. The manifestations can be called off by will or forced to dissipate if the target leaves the user's sight, which includes being blindfolded. Unlike with other people's fears, Akira's fears cannot be called off by will. They will continue to exist until Akira relaxes enough. The manifestations dissipate then. //BACKSTORY// Akira grew up with their identical twin, Keiko, and their parents. Akira's Quirk became apparent at age five. Her parents found them and their twin in the basement cornered by two shadowy figures made of dark smoke, representing two of Akira's worst fears: Drowning (溺水) and Abandonment (放棄). Akira later learned to face her fears head-on, now the two are more like companions instead of monsters. Growing up and learning to control their Quirk, Akira was eventually enrolled in the UA High School hero course through recommendations after two Pros saw them take down a thieving villain in a convenience store with barely any property damage. Akira now keeps to themself at school, occasionally accompanied by Keiko.
