Keigo Takami (Hawks)

History:

Keigo was born on the island of Kyushu, Fukuoka. He was conceived by his mother, Tomie, after she gave his father shelter and helped him hide after he committed murder, making Keigo an unwanted child. He grew up in extreme poverty, his mother mentally shut down due to the stress of their situation. His father began drinking excessively and became physically abusive to both Keigo and his mother. Keigo had a traumatic and abusive childhood, his father became an alcoholic and physically abused both Keigo and his mother, she mentally shut down due to all the stress of the situation and Keigo was forced to stay home to ensure that he would not give his father away. At one point in his childhood, after much urging from his mother, she took him out of the house and bought him an Endeavor doll. Due to living isolated from the world throughout his childhood, Keigo grew up watching heroes on television and believed that heroes were just fictional. One day, Keigo's wing feathers began to flutter, and he didn't understand why, so he left town suspecting something was going on. However, when he saw that nothing was happening, he returned home. When he returned, his father became very angry with him and ordered him to never leave the house again and not to interact with anyone. After this, his father began to beat him, telling him not to turn his back on him and muttering how free he would be if his son had never been born. In the end, Keigo suppressed all of his emotions and simply accepted and endured his parents' abuse in the hopes of never being as broken as his parents were. Shortly after, Keigo's father was captured by Endeavor and after learning this, Keigo was very shocked to realize that heroes do exist and was even more shocked to learn that the hero who arrested his father and saved him from that life full of abuse was none other than the stuffed animal his mother gave him and always carried with him.

Personality:

Hawks is shown to be highly intelligent, both emotionally and logistically. He promotes a carefree and youthful attitude, while his constant vigilance is often hidden beneath layers of serenity and equanimity. Hawks acts relaxed, while being on constant alert. Due to his past and the way he lived during his childhood, Hawks developed a strong desire to be useful to others, which is why he follows the orders of the Hero Public Safety Commission without hesitation. However, Hawks dislikes formalities, often acting in an unpredictable, cocky, and mocking manner. He acts indifferent and playfully submissive as he does not care about social status or recognition. He serenely agrees when Katsuki Bakugo claims to have been faster, and reacts with ironic adaptation when someone says he is younger. Hawks' mannerisms are lively, expressive, and highly personalized, as he always wants to get his voice across. He claims to be "bad at keeping it up," even though he possesses complete control over his facial expressions and body language, making him an extremely skilled liar. But he apparently loves the truth, finding lying to be too much work. These traits allowed him to easily make his way into the Liberation Army, and the slight shift in motivation expertly conveyed information about the Liberation Army's goals and change in leadership to Endeavor. He is a very charismatic hero, often interacting with his fans and is well-liked by the general public. He has the ability to get along with his fans and have casual and informal conversations with people, as well as taking photos with them or filming autographs. However, Hawks has shown to have a serious and very determined side, in which he is capable of using any method to get his job done and if the situation requires it, he is capable of taking justice into his own hands.

Description:

Hawks is a relatively short man with a thin, narrow build. He notes to himself that his back muscles are not broad enough. He has feathery ash-blond hair, slicked back, with some of the front locks sticking out in arches above his head, noticeably thick eyelashes, and some faint stubble on his chin. His eyes are golden brown and rather triangular in shape, with two small black triangles just below his tear ducts, making his eyes look a bit like those of a bird. The markings around his eyes are naturally innate as he had them as a child. Due to his Quirk he has a set of large bright red wings with feathers that gradually lengthen as they grow. He wears a black t-shirt with a wavy gold pattern on it, over which he has a light brown jacket with a high collar, the inside and cuffs of the sleeves lined with shearling, matching pants, and black gloves. He has red, diamond-shaped earrings, though these are rarely visible as he usually wears a pair of yellow headphones over them. His headphones are most likely for protective purposes, as the speeds at which he moves are capable of damaging eardrums beyond repair. Wide, yellow-tinted goggles protect his eyes, presumably from high-speed dirt particles. His jacket is specially modified, with two large slits in the middle of his back, allowing his wings to easily protrude. His suit resembles an aviator's uniform.
