No, he's not arrogant, though he can be under certain circumstances. However, he is very talkative and loves interacting with other people. There are little things that could deter him from talking, one of them being when he is in class. He is a surprisingly good student with average class marks and above average physical activities from when he was a kid, even without the use of his Quirk. He tackles everything with a positive look, and knows that there is always a silver lining in every problem. Though he is not above becoming serious when the time calls for it. Friendly to a fault, Rikuo tends to warm up to people quickly even though they may not feel the same way. Though he's a good judge of character, he never calls out a villain before they actually do something villainous in fear that he may have misjudged them. Though he does become wary of those that comes off as rather evil to him, but this doesn't meant that he wouldn't approach them. Just, cautious on what he has to say. He isn't completely good, however, as the man is a rather mischievous and is prone to teasing or playing pranks on others when he has the time. It may range to perfectly harmless to potentially deadly, so he needs to be contained every now and then. Though energetic, Rikuo is greatly affected by loneliness. Being completely alone in the world is one of his deepest fears. While it wouldn't be in full effect if an enemy is there with him, since he at least knows that there is someone else there, but when there is literally no one else - the cheerful Rikuo is decreased to nothing more than an empty husk. When given a companion after, it would take quite a while before he comes back. He is in his most vulnerable in this state. [color=a0410d][b]History:[/b][/color] Rikuo was born to a quirkless father and an electric-emitter mother. The two met under what seems to be impossible circumstances. His mother started off as a vigilante, only helping when the trouble is around her. Because she had no hero license, she was tracked down by the police. That was how the two met - with his mother in cuffs and his father placing them. After serving time for only a little while since she never caused much trouble, his mother was released. His father and his mother got acquainted quickly and then started being friends... and soon dated. Rikuo was born three years after they met and then continued on to live as a happy family. His mother stopped being a vigilante and continued on as a full-time office worker. His father, on the other hand, continued his police officer job. When he was six years old, out of childish curiosity as to [i]why[/i] they shouldn't stick a metal fork into a socket. When you're in the house alone, expertly evading the watchful eyes of the babysitter, you're able to do anything. So imagine young Rikuo sticking that fork in that outlet - and the electricity rushed through the fork and into his body. The babysitter arrived just in time to see Rikuo get electrocuted. Instead of watching the young boy grow limp, he suddenly vibrated and then ran around faster than she could keep track of him. And that was how they found out what his quirk was. Originally, his father didn't want him practicing his quirk since it was rather dangerous to let their child work with electricity. But his mother managed to convince him otherwise, and Rikuo managed to get some training in early. However, he rarely used his quirk outside of the house unless he was really late to his class - in which case, he had permission to use it. By the time he was twelve, his father had tragically died because of a villain. As they were trying to apprehend the villain, he suddenly grew more violent and slaughtered a whole squad of police officers - his father included. He was apprehended by top heroes and was sent to a maximum security prison where he rots to death. Rikuo felt devastated at that time, but he continued to soldier on. Two years later, his mother had died due to stress and a sickness long forgotten. He now lives with his auntie who had graciously taken him in after the tragic loss of his parents. The feeling of isolation is what caused him to fear loneliness so much. Rikuo never found the real need to use his quirk, but he always admired his police officer dad so he always found the idea of becoming a hero so he aimed for any hero school out there. However, he never really thought about it too much and simply engaged with physical activities which he wonderfully excelled in. He mainly played in baseball matches since running had always been a fun thing for him to do. When the time came that he would be able to go to either UA or Chihaiten, he chose the latter. He didn't know why but he found Chihaiten as the place for him, so he applied there, and miraculously passed. Though, now, the hero dream was for his parents. So no one would ever suffer from what he has suffered from as well. [hider=Quirk] Quirk Name: Electric Speed Quirk Description: An emitter type quirk. He has the ability to run faster than average, appearing merely as a blur when he activates his quirk. To be able to access his quirk, however, he must find a way to be able to electrocute himself. Once electricity passes through his body, he is able to convert it to energy and allow him to go at a faster speed than usual. The higher the voltage, the faster he can go. While he should be able to convert the energy back into electricity, he still hasn't been able to do it yet. He is learning all about it, though he would still need some more time before he is able to do it. He has been seen running over water as well. Quirk Weaknesses: While he is immune to electricity/lightning since he converts it into speed, Rikuo must be able to immediately turn it into speed or else he's fried, and since he hasn't been able to learn how to release it yet, this means that he could potentially die. To activate his quirk, he must have access to electricity. Hence why he carries around a high voltage taser that can change between high voltage to low voltage depending on what he needs. [/hider] [color=a0410d][b]Other:[/b][/color] He carries around two high voltage tasers hidden within his body so that he could activate his quirk. In his plans for a costume, it is able to absorb electricity and release it on himself. Now, it only comes down to the matter of actually finding the funding for it. Since he knows that his quirk can only get him so far, he's been training in other close combat fighting styles courtesy of his father finding the time to teach him. Rikuo has been thinking of bringing around a bat when he becomes a hero, but any weapon would do really. [/hider]
