Personal Dossier
[hr.]NameUchimura Mifune
Age15
OriginKawasaki, Kanagawa.
Physical DescriptionMifune stands at 5'9, an impressive height given his age, and is the owner of a lean, compact strength and wiry musculature. Somewhat unfortunately is his tendency to mitigate both traits with his general comportment, preferring to carry himself in a 'nonchalant' (read: consciously maintained) slouch. His complexion is fair, visage possessed of sharp features rendered dim and almost ghoulish by the prominent bags and sleep-lines that underscore his otherwise striking violet eyes. His hair is a noticeably abrasive pinkish hue, a side-effect of his quirk, and he prefers to style it with the mantra of 'no-style-at-all', unkempt and ruffled; within the confines of Ishin Academy, however, he keeps it patted down and tame.
His expression typically cycles throughout three modes; a disdainful sneer, a barely composed stone-face that twitches as Mifune begins to lose his composure, or all the outright contortion of unbridled fury.

Mifune's general temperament is as the thin layer that rests atop kettle-water, fluctuating as the brew boils. Perpetually annoyed, and anxious in equal measure (and a fair bit socially awkward and conscious), his genuine struggles to maintain a facade of cool tranquility are inevitably short-lived. He lashes out at the slightest provocation, and fumes at the slightest of slights, as if convinced that every transgressor will be the end of him if he doesn't eradicate them with extreme force. Short-sighted and impulsive, Mifune is brash and almost certainly a bit dim socially, although is rather successful in bookish endeavors - not a total idiot.
While he outwardly espouses steering clear of other's troubles and living as a stone-faced aloof, the fact of the matter is that Mifune is also a bonafide busybody. His paranoia that the troubles of others will fester and come to affect him are symptoms of a textbook control freak, a shoe that most certainly fits. His mantra is rather concerning: He'll resolve to stomp out whatever it is that ails you, and then he'll stomp you too.

A 2-3 paragraph description of your character's personal life, some mention of their parents and things that define their heroic aspirations. Given the age of our characters I do not expect an essay.
Character Development & ConceptualizationAt the base level, he's conceived as very much the tropey Japanese delinquent character; sneering, temperamental, argumentative, combative and more than a little anti-social. Doubly tropey is the intent to position him as a delinquent-with-depth, the typical proverbial heart of gold, and the unexpected helping hand. Conceptually, he's framed through this near-crippling anxiety, where the world seems to move too fast around him and even words of kindness strike him as this painfully abrasive static. He struggles to maintain a certain control in this world of unbearable tempo, attempting to do so with a readily raised fist and short fuse.
As the character develops, the idea will be for him to embrace the way of the world; to be comfortable in doing the best he can, yet also knowing that there's a time for him to accept ceding control. With less specificity, as it'd be a bit presumptuous to assume how things will unfold but, the general theme will be: how to get by, more or less (with, ostensibly, a little help from his friends; being able to transition from an almost antagonistically aggressive character to a real, tight friend with some semblance of nuance is a particular goal here).
The quirk, and my intent to develop the quirk (and the way he uses it) will likely serve as a bit of a microcosm of his development. The quirk lends itself to a manner of subduing villains that isn't near as a violent as a closed-fist smackdown; Mifune will likely transition from hooligan-level beat-down brawling to a more 'zen', 'open palm, gentle-fist' kind of martial arts. Eventually being able to go 'full cowl' and envelop himself fully in his pink feathers will be some very general, typical depiction of him being fully comfortable, of blossoming in the world, should that indeed come to pass.

Abilities & Talents
[hr.]Quirk Type
Transformation.
Quirk DescriptionMifune possesses a Transformation-quirk known as [Feather Boa], and is able to morph his hair into feathers of pink, and also grow said feathers from his numerous follicles. The feathers are coated with an agent that incites sensations of heavy tickling, provided it makes contact with exposed skin. He is himself immune to the effects of the agent, and is thus able to handle his feathers if he so chooses, being able to remove them from his person.
Currently, he lacks a certain degree of fine control with his transformation, being primarily limited as a matter of breadth and fluidity. He is able to manifest, through a short but telegraphed sequence of exertion, up to two patches of feathers (each with roughly the surface area of a limb) at a time, with the generation of a new patch causing the previous ones to revert or recede. It is also known that he needs to remain well hydrated in order to make the most of his quirk; failure to do so decreases the potency of the agent, and, at times, may cause the feathers to emerge bereft of the substance.
Other Talents & AttributesCurrently, he lacks a certain degree of fine control with his transformation, being primarily limited as a matter of breadth and fluidity. He is able to manifest, through a short but telegraphed sequence of exertion, up to two patches of feathers (each with roughly the surface area of a limb) at a time, with the generation of a new patch causing the previous ones to revert or recede. It is also known that he needs to remain well hydrated in order to make the most of his quirk; failure to do so decreases the potency of the agent, and, at times, may cause the feathers to emerge bereft of the substance.
Uchimura Mifune is a decent enough 'brawler', which is more simply to say he's above-par for his age when it comes to size, strength, coordination and athleticism, enough to make up for his lack of technique or training when against middling competition.
Otherwise, Mifune is rather adept at rout memorization, which carries him in most of his more bookish endeavors. He is also incredibly handy, almost prodigious when it comes tasks like furniture assembly and quick plumbing fixes.
