When not in her designated school uniform (or dream hero attire) Yoshiba is rather plain, as much would not be a surprise since she doesn’t particularly have much for money to waste on frivolous things; as a result she doesn’t have many alternate pairs of clothes. When given the option to have preferences, she likes loose-fitting clothes that allow her to be mobile and isn’t sheepish or prudish in how she’s comes off. If people think her skit is cut a little too short she doesn’t really pay any mind of it, for example.[/INDENT][/INDENT] [COLOR=2A9FCB][INDENT][B][SUP][SUB][H3]P [i]e r s o n a l i t y[/i][/H3][/SUB][/SUP][/B][/INDENT][hr][/COLOR][INDENT][INDENT]▸ Antagonistic ▸ Brash ▸ Brave ▸ Cocky ▸ Loud ▸ Proud ▸ Tempermental[/INDENT][/INDENT] [COLOR=2A9FCB][INDENT][B][SUP][SUB][H3]H [i]i s t o r y[/i][/H3][/SUB][/SUP][/B][/INDENT][hr][/COLOR][INDENT][INDENT]The daughter of two seafaring heroes who were relatively acclaimed in southern Japan, Yoshiba had a long shadow to overcome before she was even old enough to walk. However, Yoshiba’s challenge to overcome would have nothing to do with their accomplishments as heroes but rather something a lot worse. Yoshiba was effectively raised solely by her mother, Kishiko, following the death of her father after he succumbed to his wounds following a fight with his sworn nemesis. Yoshiba’s childhood thereon would include stories of her father’s valiant deeds and the legacy of his actions as a pro hero. Despite the dangers of her profession, Kishiko never tried to deter Yoshiba’s enthusiastic perception of heroism or by extension, her father—heroism was encouraged and reinforced. However, this would not be the last time the actions of supervillains would influenced Yoshiba’s life. When Yoshiba was nine years old, supervillains broke into her home in Kagoshima, Japan with the intent of ‘finishing the job’ after her mother had decimated their plan to overtake the region, a grueling plan that had cost them over-a-decade of planning and organization several months prior. Yoshiba doesn’t remember much of details surrounding the battle that leveled her childhood home, but she certainly did not forget what she lost in the aftermath of the battle; her mother died right in front of her as the cloaked villain moved in for the killing blow, and had it not been for the interception of another pro hero, Yoshiba probably would’ve joined her parents in the afterlife right then and there. It would be a thought she would consider a twisted irony after she had been reassigned to an orphanage when the police realized that Yoshiba had no living relatives to speak of and thus no guardianship to fall back on. It’s been six years since that fateful day and Yoshiba’s drive to become a pro hero has only been reinforced. She intends to show the world that she is ready to be a hero.[/INDENT][/INDENT] [COLOR=2A9FCB][INDENT][B][SUP][SUB][H3]Q [i]u i r k[/i] T [i]y p e[/i][/H3][/SUB][/SUP][/B][/INDENT][hr][/COLOR][INDENT][INDENT]Mutation[/INDENT][/INDENT] [COLOR=2A9FCB][INDENT][B][SUP][SUB][H3]Q [i]u i r k[/i] D [i]e s c r i p t i o n[/i][/H3][/SUB][/SUP][/B][/INDENT][hr][/COLOR][INDENT][INDENT]Known by the name of [b]prehensile hair[/b], Yoshiba’s quirk is far more versatile and dynamic than it seems. Yoshiba’s hair is an extension of herself, serving much like a nerve would rather than a muscle in that it shares and acts as Yoshiba’s consciousness wills it to. This includes the ability to “harden”, “sharpen”, and “grapple” among other functions—it has been likened to tentacles among other things for just that reason, though Yoshiba’s control of her quirk has been… inconsistent at best due to her constantly changing emotions, desires, and at times, loss of focus. This lack of self-control and inner focus serves as the quirk’s principal weakness, though it is not the sole weakness considering Yoshiba’s hair is still her [i]hair[/i] and as such is not invulnerable despite it being far more durable than it has any right being.[/INDENT][/INDENT] [COLOR=2A9FCB][INDENT][B][SUP][SUB][H3]O [i]t h e r[/i] I [i]n f o r m a t i o n[/i][/H3][/SUB][/SUP][/B][/INDENT][hr][/COLOR][INDENT][INDENT][i][b]Mediocre Student:[/b][/i] Yoshiba’s intellect is certainly lacking in some areas, a fact that can be seen in her average-to-mediocre test scores. While Yoshiba makes up for this by being good at physical evaluations and tests, she is constantly frustrated that academically she falters despite wanting to succeed. [i][b]Physical Conditioning:[/b][/i] Some of Yoshiba’s supplementary talents and abilities include that of being a skilled swimmer and being rather physically conditioned due to the fact that since her mother’s death six years ago she had constantly put her body through hell; this includes her own training but also her tendency to get into schoolyard brawls, to which she used as a sort of outlet for her own emotional misery. Her ability to move around an urban environment, throw a punch, as well as swim is only accented by her quirk. [i][b]Natural Swimmer:[/b][/i] As a facet of her quirk genetics inherited from her father’s side of the family, Yoshiba is a natural swimmer and has been since her feet first touched water. Whilst she has conditioned herself to be dexterous on land, in the water she is much faster; especially if she uses her prehensile hair to enhance her swimming abilities.

His apologetic nature often makes her dismiss the authenticity of his ideals and she certainly doesn’t see him as a rival by any means. [i][b]Sonoda Kyoji:[/b][/i] The first person Yoshiba directly called a “sidekick” and potentially someone she values as either a rival or at the very least, someone who needs to be put in his place. [i][b]Watanamiya Rikuo:[/b][/i] The first person to introduce themselves to Yoshiba and an acquaintance that Yoshiba views rather neutrally rather than negatively. She finds his desire to “have fun” as odd. As long as Rikuo doesn’t stand in her way as becoming a great hero she could learn to call him a “friend”. Only time will tell.
