|Shota Aizawa|

Appearance

Age: 31 Height: 6'0 Hair: Black. Eyes: Black, red when using erasure Quirk. Birthday: November 8th Zodiac: Scorpio. Shota is a tall, slender man, pale skinned man, with messy, shoulder length black hair, that often hangs in front of his face and tired eyes. He is usually recognized for his worn out appearance, often looking fatigued. His facial hair is almost always stubbly, unkempt state (unless he needs to look good for press) and his tired and flat eyes, unless when showing intensity or in combat. During a particularly difficult fight with a nomu, when fiercely protecting his students, he received a deep scar under his right eye. In a second, more intense fight with Shigaraki, Shota lost his right leg, which was replaced with a high-tech prosthetic limb. He also received a second scar on his right eye, stretching from his eyebrow, to his lower eyelid. He wears an eyepatch over that eye to cover the damage inflicted from that battle.

Personality

Shota is a very stern and reserved man who has lofty expectations of his students. He is primarily motivated by logic and does not believe in the necessity to maintain a clean-cut appearance or filter his words or ideas for others. He often comes off as cold, apathetic, and impatient, exerting very little energy in most situations, preferring to take naps in his sleeping bag instead. Despite his personality, Shota has shown on several occasions that he is not completely devoid of joy or humor: he often grins whenever he is impressed by one of his students or after he tricks them with one of his 'rational deceptions'. Although she bit of a lone wolf type, he is still friends with hid high school classmate, Hizashi (aka pro hero Present Mic).

Quirk

Erasure: Shota's Quirk gives him the ability to nullify another person's Quirk by looking at the user. The effects of this Quirk can still last even if Shota's line of vision is out of range. After sustaining grievous injuries at the U.S.J., Shota can't use his Quirk for as long and must rest longer between erasures. After losing one of his eyes in the Paranormal Liberation War, he reveals that he has now almost completely lost the ability to use his Quirk, though he can still make some use of Erasure using just the one eye. While powerful, this ability has many drawbacks: Erasure deactivates if Shota blinks. His Quirk gives Shota a bad dry eye, forcing him to blink more often when he uses the power continuously. Most Mutant-type Quirks are immune to Erasure, given that these Quirks are often passively active in a way that can't be negated. Erasure has zero effect on any strength or abilities that don't originate from Quirks. Erasure makes Shota's hair stand on end while it is active, allowing his enemies to see when his Quirk is active or not. This Quirk has no offensive potential. The Quirk Factor lies within Shota's eyes, so if one or both are damaged or destroyed, he cannot effectively use Erasure. Ultimate Moves Binding Cloth: A fighting style devised and used by Shota Aizawa using his Capturing Weapon to ensnare targets, to tie up and immobilize opponents, or to set up traps. It can also be used to increase one's own mobility by grabbing onto objects.

Abilities

Overall Abilities: Shota has demonstrated incredible combat prowess and ingenuity that makes him one of the most formidable teachers and Pro Heroes at U.A. High. Shota's usual battle tactic consists of canceling an opponent's Quirk and then using his Capturing Weapon in conjunction with his high agility to easily defeat or restrain his adversaries. Even without the aid of his Quirk, Shota relies on his proficiency in hand-to-hand combat, excelling in close quarters combat. His overall abilities make him a pivotal combatant in situations that involve his opponents being solely Quirk-reliant, and with the Erasure Hero creating openings by negating their powers in the midst of battle, him and his comrades are put into advantageous positions. During the U.S.J. Incident, he effectively held his own against low-tier members of the League of Villains that surrounded and outnumbered the Erasure Hero, dozens to one. Shota evaded multiple attacks from opponents of various sizes and abilities before restraining them and sending them flying with calculated counter attacks. He was even able to nearly defeat Tomura Shigaraki, a highly capable villain before the U.S.J. Nomu intervened and overpowered the Erasure Hero. Other than Tomura, Shota can effectively fend off high-level villains such as Vanguard Action Squad members, Dabi and Himiko Toga, albeit with some difficulty. He also played vital roles during the Shie Hassaikai Raid and the Paranormal Liberation War, both of which involved large teams of heroes contending with high-class villains, with the latter spectacle involving the suppression of various High-End Nomus and Tomura's enhanced abilities.

Abilities continued...

Binding Cloth: Shota fights by ensnaring and/or immobilizing his opponents with his capturing weapon, and can also use it for mobility by swinging on walls and surfaces. As highly proficient he is at using this fighting style, Shota stated that it took him six years to learn and develop it from absolute scratch. This style of combat synchronizes well with his Erasure Quirk, as he can nullify the Quirks of his opponents while being able to restrain and defeat them. Immense Stamina: On multiple occasions, Shota was able to keep fighting on even after suffering significant and painful injuries. During the U.S.J. Incident, he fought off swarms of villains and still had energy to face Tomura. Even when Shota's left arm and skull were shattered by the U.S.J. Nomu, he remained conscious long enough to save Tsuyu from being killed by Tomura. In addition, during the climax of Paranormal Liberation War, Shota amputated his leg fast enough to stop the effects of a Quirk-Destroying Bullet, without showing signs of significant pain, and continue using his Erasure Quirk despite the lost limb. Keen Intellect: Eraser Head had been seen to have keen observation and evaluation skills. He can easily evaluate his student's personalities and their mental state. He is an expert on collaborating his equipment and Quirk with one another. In battle, Eraser Head uses goggles in conjunction with his Quirk to prevent enemies from figuring out who he's looking at, and keep them guessing. He also quickly creates strategies for dealing with different types of enemies, even those who are immune to his Quirk. In addition, he can meticulously discern the mechanics behind people's abilities after witnessing them performed once.

Style

His formal attire for press meetings includes a black suit, slacks and dress shoes, blue tied, and white dress shirt. While in this attire his hair is well-groomed and held in a low bun at the base of his neck. Hero Clothing. When acting as a pro hero or teaching at UA, he sports an all black baggy outfit, that consists of a long sleeved shirt and matching pants that tuck into his black boots. He also wears a gray utility belt and his signature white binding cloth scarf. He hides a yellow pair of goggles underneath his scarf to use in battle when needed.

The odd quirk he receives in battle.

While fighting a bizarre villain, Shota is hit with a small dart. He wakes in the hospital, feeling dizzy, and a bit disoriented. Soon he discovers he can read minds, but only the minds of women. He doesn't know how to get rid of this ability, but wants to learn how to control it. The constant thoughts of women would drive him crazy, which only makes him want to learn how to activate it when needed and not always forced to hear the thoughts of women.

Prompt
