███ Short Introduction

Kamui Yamikawa is a Pro Hero and U.A. alum. She's stationed just outside of Musutafu, Japan, and shares an apartment with her best friend from high school, Hana Takahashi (a.k.a. Restoration).

███ History

Kamui is the oldest child of a villain and a Quirkless mother. Her father retired after her birth. As soon as Kamui was old enough to control her Quirk, he began to train her in how to use it properly. From a young age, Kamui wanted to be a hero, and her father encouraged her, not wanting her to make the same mistakes he had.



She passed the U.A. entrance exam with flying colors. During the exam, she met Hana Takahashi, who rescued Kamui after her wing got caught under some falling rubble. They ended up in the same homeroom class and became fast friends. Kamui's parents even joked about adopting Hana, who later admitted that the idea was appealing. After graduating and hearing that Hana didn't want to live with her mother and stepfather, she suggested that Hana live with her family.A few years later, Kamui consented to letting Hana's younger sister, Keiko, stay with them, on the stipulation that Keiko pull her weight. Keiko assured her that that wouldn't be a problem. Kamui quickly grew to like Keiko, and saw herself in her.

███ Appearance

Kamui is tall, standing at 6 feet (6'3, including her horns), and of very slender build. She has dark blue hair, which she usually keeps in a side ponytail, red eyes, pointed ears, black horns, black wings, and a long tail. Her inhuman features are a mutation inherited from her father. Her wings aren't actually big enough to carry her, so she uses her Quirk to aid her.



Her casual style (not pictured) is pretty laid-back. Like Hana, she likes wearing tank tops or t-shirts, and jeans (and sometimes camo cargo pants). She carefully tailors all of her clothes to accommodate her wings and tail.



Hana designed Kamui's hero costume. She wears a black leather crop-top jacket, long purple tunic, a tight grey shirt, grey trousers, black gloves, and black boots with gold-tipped toes (not actual gold). Like Hana's costume, it takes heavy inspiration from fantasy video games. It's designed to be fireproof.

███ Personality

In public, Kamui is a strict rule-follower. She doesn't appear to be very feminine, and doesn't seem to have much interest in traditional or stereotypical feminine pursuits. She is vocal about her disdain for villains. She doesn't appear to have much of a sense of humor, and reprimands those who would play pranks. She is very focused and logical. She is also not easily intimidated. She has a habit of chewing out and quietly threatening catcallers.

In private, she's much more laid-back, though not as much as her father. Though she stays logical and unintimidated, she isn't quite to strict with others. She herself sticks to a non-negotiable routine, but doesn't enforce it on those around her. In private and with those she trusts, she displays more interest in traditionally feminine things, especially cooking. She makes a specific effort to be affectionate with her loved ones, though she isn't always good at it, and tries to be as supportive as possible. She has a surprisingly dirty sense of humor.

In the words of Hana, when it comes to hero work and strategy, Kamui is "brilliant", though Kamui would never openly admit such. She considers the consequences of every action before making them. She's very good at coordinating efforts, and often sets up search-and-rescue strategies for Hana.

However, she is a perfectionist, and can spend an unnecessary amount of time on planning to make sure it's as watertight as possible. When she gets particularly focused, she will neglect her own health. When things go wrong, she blames herself and can become despondent. Though she won't admit it, she also worries too much about her loved ones.

◣ A b i l i t i e s ◥

Kamui is a particularly powerful hero who has definitely earned her place in Japan's top 20 despite her youth. Her honor and strategic thinking is praised and respected in the hero community.

███ Quirk

Kamui possesses a keen mind, being very strategic. She processes information quickly and is capable of quickly adjusting and relaying her tactics.Though Kamui isn't the most physically strong, she is very fast and light on her feet, allowing her to maneuver with impressive agility.

Nephilim: Kamui can create and control dark energy. This energy can manifest in any form she wishes, which usually ends up being a katana or flames. This energy always takes a purple and black color, adding to her almost demonic theme. Her power is strongest during the night and on eclipses.

When calm, she has complete control over her dark energy. If she uses her dark energy when her emotions are running high, she risks losing control and being engulfed in her energy. If that were to happen, she would lose conscious control of her body and revert to a feral, demonic state. In that form, she is more powerful, but as she lacks control over herself, the destruction would be incredible. She would need significant outside help to revert back to her true self.



Moves

Flames of Hell : She relentlessly shoots energy in the form of flames at her opponent.

Ganglari : She uses her energy in the form of a katana to fight her opponent.



Righteous Judgement : She flies into the sky and sends down large amounts of energy at the general area underneath her. She specifically makes her energy harmful only to those she feels strong hate for, and harmless to anyone else.



Mephisto's Wrath : This move is named for her father's villain name. She lessens her emotional control, thus forfeiting some control of her power. Her energy then coats her slightly, making her more powerful. She usually uses the energy she can control in the form of a large, two-handed sword.

While this is her most powerful move, it's also her most dangerous, as once she forfeits a little control, she risks losing control altogether.

███ Quotes

"Honor is something kept, not found. But once lost, it is incredibly hard to regain."

"Aim for the sun. That way, if you miss, your arrow will fall far away and kill someone you probably don't know."

"So, Hana, when can I expect a little niece?"

"You'll fall eventually. Everyone does. What makes a hero different from the common man is not that he does not fall. It is that he rises again."
