[hider=Daichi Nakai] [center][hider=Appearance] [img]http://img14.deviantart.net/0296/i/2010/219/7/5/splicers_metamorph_bruiser_by_madjaguar.jpg[/img] Having spent a majority of his life taller and heavier than most adults, Daichi has some height issues. While he tries to not let it bother him, the fact that he needs to ride in the back of a pickup truck has led to numerous... [i]problems[/i]. He typically wears tight fitting clothes and very large hoodies, but loves his large school uniform. He enjoys covering his head with a hoodie, mainly just to hide his monstrous visage. He went through a phase of not using any plant products, but has gotten over it. Everywhere he goes, he usually has some form of meat, usually as jerky. His deep, grumbling voice is made humorous by his infamous stuttering, a condition he despises. His skin has a hard, almost stone-like texture, but is still flesh. [/hider][/center] [center][color=a36209][b]Name:[/b][/color] Daichi Nakai [color=a36209][b]Gender:[/b][/color] Male (I-I think?) [color=a36209][b]Age:[/b][/color] 15 [color=a36209][b]Height:[/b][/color] 229 cm [color=a36209][b]Weight:[/b][/color] 169 kg [color=a36209][b]Personality:[/b][/color] A loud, kind individual, Daichi is quick to stand up for others when no one else will. He refuses to back down when he is given a mission, and will hold himself to complete it. Usually, this meant getting groceries from the car, not arresting villains. While he tries not to show it, Daichi is terrified to have been accepted into Komei. He does his best to fit in with the crowd, but refuses to stand down if he sees bullying or some injustice. Due to his problems with internal injuries, Daichi has some health problems, particularly a shortness of breath. Because of his lack of... manhood, Daichi doesn't really feel anything special towards females. He is very self conscious about this deformity and his inability to conceive children, and he will try to hide it as much as possible. Due to his large frame, almost everything he owns is a much larger version of what it is supposed to be, and he is forced to act as carefully as he can around other people. Despite his loud mouthing, he means everything he says, and he cares about everyone and everything, filling the optimistic role nicely. Daichi has an incredibly naive attitude, fueled by a life of sheltering and love, to the point where he believes prison is interchangeable with shelter and killing another person is unthinkable, if not subconsciously impossible. He is far to trusting for his own good, and he does whatever he can to help, usually failing and causing harm. Despite his cheery attitude and optimistic view on life, Daichi really doesn't care about himself. He does not remember a time when other children would play with him, and he hasn't called someone a 'friend' for the past 11 years. Every time he looks at himself in the mirror, all he ever sees is the same, disgusting monster. He buries all of his self hate under the desire to help others, which was the main reason he decide to enroll into Komei in the first place. Someone could attack him without him batting an eye, but he would do everything in his power to help someone if they needed it. If Daichi ever managed to find a friend, he would do anything and everything to make them happy. He has known since he had first gotten his quirk that he was... special. He was nowhere near as smart or witty as his classmates. He was just the ugly, dumb monster. He is incredibly good at reading, and does so on a university level, but he lacks the ability to do complicated math or memorize things easily. A-at least his vocabulary is amazing! The largest flaw in his personality is by far his naiveté, which has resulted in him giving tens of thousands of yen to 'investors' and the 'homeless'. The one thing he refuses to do is go into the water, which he has an immense fear of. If the water rises above his mouth, he refuses to go near it. [color=a36209][b]Background:[/b][/color] Born in Kyoto to a single mother, Daichi led a completely normal life. He was quite bright for his age, to the point where his daycare thought he would accomplish great things in the future. His mother, a Florakinetic, owned a small flower shop which kept the family in a comfortable position financially. Daichi dreamed of inheriting his mother's quirk, and taking over the shop when she grew too old. He never knew his father, but he really couldn't care less at the time. After all, kids always look forward to getting their quirks. They never stop to think of what they would do if things turned out differently. The moment went by instantly for Daichi. He closed his eyes for a second, and he was suddenly taller than his mother. His muscles bulged without any effort, threatening to rip his skin apart, and he felt so much... [i]heavier[/i]. None of this was on Daichi's mind however. The only thing that was on his mind was the fact that he couldn't breath. His tongue, a massive blob of flesh, was far back in his mouth, near his throat. Presumably, this was meant to prevent biting it with knife-like teeth. Unfortunately, it also blocked his windpipe, resulting in him passing out. He awoke in the nearby hospital several hours later, his mother sobbing by his side. His father had the same quirk, and had left the country in order to avoid persecution for tax evasion. Daichi's mother had seen the process of Daichi's quirk activating, which took several minutes until completion. She had been the one to call the ambulance for him. And she was also the person to tell him the bad news. Having gone so long without oxygen, Daichi's brain had suffered immense damage. It was unlikely for him to ever recover fully, and he was destined to be mentally handicapped. Additionally, his left lung had suffered shock from the event, resulting in a shortness of breath and severe asthma. Daichi remained in the hospital for 4 months, and left just in time for his birthday. He had turned 4. As the years went by, it became clear that Daichi had changed, and not just mentally. He lost the numerous friends he had made, and he never managed to make anymore. He was far less expressive, and also was introverted. He began to read almost obsessively, and his small garden nearly tripled in size. He was delving into himself, and shutting everyone else out. At 8, Daichi was taller than the average man, and weighed just as much. It was then that he decided to join the local soup kitchen. Maybe he wanted to recover himself before he became a social pariah, or maybe he simply wanted to be something besides the monster he appeared to be. Or maybe there was no reason. But the faces of those he saw that day changed him. They didn't sneer at his face, or cringe at his voice. They didn't shake in fear when he walked near them. They simply smiled, and thanked him for the food. He wanted to help people as much as possible. For the next 6 years, Daichi became a local legend, and was the go-to guy if someone had a problem. People no longer looked at him with fear, but with gratitude. As the years went on, this sense of justice and satisfaction became addictive, to the point where Daichi had selected his future career. Professional hero. Daichi spent the next year studying furiously, and spending every waking moment learning. After months of studying and a grueling exam period, he successfully managed to make it into the famous Komei Academy, bottom of his class. After a tearful goodbye with his mother, Daichi left for Musutafu, to show the world that he wasn't just some monster.[/center] [hr] [center][color=a36209][b]Quirk:[/b][/color] Monstrous Physiology [color=a36209][b]Classification:[/b][/color] Mutant [color=a36209][b]Description:[/b][/color] Daichi has an incredibly strong body. Something such as a regular punch would probably break a person's hand, and it would take a large number of small caliber bullets to take him down. Strength wise, it would be easy for him to throw cars, let alone punches. Something large, like a building or truck, however, is beyond his capabilities. He is able to see in the dark, and can jump three meters vertically in the air. He is at full strength in the dark. Unfortunately, Daichi's quirk comes with some side effects. He is, compared to his classmates, mentally dim, and his quirk reshaping his mouth has caused him to develop a severe stutter. Additionally, subtlety is a foreign concept for him, as simply walking generates a lot of noise. Speed is also unknown to him, as he has horrible cardiovascular strength, to the point where jumping places would be faster. Internal damage is by far the biggest threat, as most surgical scalpels cannot pierce his skin, leading to numerous health problems throughout Daichi's life. Daichi has no sense of smell, and his stomach has become incapable of digesting plants, leading to a carnivorous life style. On the topic of food, Daichi requires 5000 calories a day which, while not to threatening in modern day Japan, would be incredibly dangerous in a survival situation. Daichi's durability only extends to physical trauma, and mental attacks are more than twice as effective on him. He has numerous 'weak points' scattered throughout his body, mainly on his back and lower on his neck. These spots glow bright red when he is in a rage, and will cause him to fall unconscious if hit with large amounts of force. His quirk is constantly active, making Daichi gain a very careful disposition when it comes to other people, the inability to swim, and a very low IQ. Finally, Daichi is 50% weaker in the light, leading to his more 'nocturnal' sleep cycle.[/center] [hr] [center][color=a36209][b]Talents:[/b] [/color] [i]Boxing:[/i] Due to his size and lack of dexterity, Daichi has adopted the western art of Boxing. He is quite experienced, but nowhere near tournament level. [i]Gardening:[/i] Despite being a pure carnivore, Daichi has been known to be an avid gardener, and does his best to keep his plants alive. He's the kind of guy who brings his potted plants inside during bad weather. [i]Foreign Language:[/i] Unsurprisingly for the guy with the intelligence of a child, Daichi has an incredible grasp on foreign languages. He has nearly mastered English (Westaboo), and has made great progress towards Chinese. He will occasionally make exclamations in English, mainly for effect or attention.
