[indent]空夜 はじょう (うつや はじょう) Utsuya Hajo[/indent]
[sub][color=#cdbdd7][b]Age[/b][/color][/sub]
[indent]15[/indent]
[sub][color=#cdbdd7][b]Origin[/b][/color][/sub]
[indent]Ashiya, Hyōgo Prefecture, Japan[/indent]
[sub][color=#cdbdd7][b]Physical Description[/b][/color][/sub]
[indent]Standing at a 5'2", with a fair complexion, Hajo's an average girl, if perhaps of a noticably-lean build compared to most girls her age. She has long and wavy, lavender hair that reaches down to her tailbone, and matching eyes, with rhombus-shaped, white pupils, and naturally long lashes. Hajo is generally considered pretty and "preppy", with a bright and open face, and a beaming smile. Her cheeks tend to carry a gentle blush, giving her an excited or formally flushed appearance, which is amplified often due to her easily-embarrassed nature.[/indent]
[sub][color=#cdbdd7][b]Characterization[/b][/color][/sub]
[indent]
• Carefree • Enthusiastic • Brave •
Hajo does not tend to concern herself with negative thoughts or possible consequences, showing a happy-go-lucky attitude, and often jumping right into whatever plan was made. She is easily excitable and easy to rope into things, often being the first to charge head-first into whatever lies ahead.

• Airheaded • Frank • Socially-Awkward • Naive • Indecisive •
Hajo isn't the sharpest tool in the shed; though highly curious, passionate, and inquisitive, she struggles learning anything unless the subject deeply interests her. Furthermore, she tends to project her own carefree and forward disposition onto others, ignoring things like decorum and personal space all too often, sometimes without realizing her own rudeness. She also struggles to settle with things, showing a somewhat flightly disposition.

• Talented • Kind •
Hajo is, in spite of her academic struggles and interpersonal deafness, a gifted girl when it comes to select subjects. She's been noticably adept at playing with her Quirk ever since a young age, and pet projects like learning how to surf have proven that she learns quickly whenever she is passionate about something. Perhaps precisely because of her general lack of academic success, Hajo is very considerate in sharing her knowledge and strength, readily helping others without any sort of sense of superiority.

• Reverent • Easily-embarrassed • Romantic •
As a result of her parents' strict regimen, Hajo has been instilled with a deep respect for superiors; even a tour guide could 'cause her to burst into tears if they were to reprimand her. Being called on or lectured is one of her biggest fears, causing her to behave almost comically-well in most settings that involve a person of authority. Furthermore, she gets extremely flustered when called out or even just complimented; a fact that is a great cause of embarassment for Hajo, as she - a naive romantic at heart - tends to crush on boys easily and often.[/indent]
[sub][color=#cdbdd7][b]Personal History[/b][/color][/sub]
[indent]Born into a wealthy family, great expectations were placed in Hajo and her brother ever since their birth. The siblings were raised with meticulous care and great demands, a fact that weighed heavily upon them, despite their comfortable life in one of Japan’s wealthiest residential areas. While Hajo remained an unbeat ditz, she readily deferred to her parents demands; her brother, Shinko, did not. He grew more rebellious and vocal with each passing year. And though his parents would admonish him constantly, Hajo admired her brother for his free spirit and passion; this admiration fueled her, no matter what struggles she faced.

Shinko, at this point having defied his parents diligence, was granted plenty of freedoms Hajo was not, and though he would sometimes be reprimanded for his recklessness and inappropriate behavior, his brilliance kept him out of hot water; he was well-liked by classmates and teachers alike for his charms, his athletic prowess, and his academic success. Hajo had long idolized him, but the way he forced his way out of parental control was beyond her imagination, and only stoked her admiration. She worked hard on becoming like Shinko, even if his academic prowess eluded her, much to her parents' disappointment. Though she could never defy them like her brother, Hajo, by the end of middle-school, had absorbed many of his interests and can-do attitude. Realizing the senseless fight they've been fighting, Hajo's parents curbed their expectations for the sake of their daughter - they were, after all, still loving parents. It all seemed almost too perfect to Hajo: Soon she’d join Shinko when she would finally attend Shiketsu High, much like him and their parents before them.

Until it happened.

Nobody knew how, who, or why. But a series of attacks shook the region, indiscriminately targeting civilians, heroes, and students of the prestigious school; Shinko among them. Hajo didn’t understand. Her brother - wild, brilliant, kind - a sureshot to become a great and beloved pro hero - had been left Quirkless. The next time the family gathered at home felt like a funeral. Shinko, usually one to crack an outrageous joke that lured a small smile even out of their stoic father’s mouth, sat with clenched hands. Hajo had never seen her parents so flustered and uncertain. Hajo herself still felt the same admiration for him, though she knew that something was amiss and could not be replaced. It wasn’t until she asked him to help her with her application to Shiketsu that she knew just how much had changed: Brimming with bitterness over the fact he’d have to drop into a different course, deprived of his chances to become a hero, he yelled at her in an outburst of anger. He had never so much as raised his voice at her before, being an exemplary big brother, protective and kind of his little sister. This Shinko was a different person. Saddened by the change, Hajo surmised a plan. She would not so much as apply to Shiketsu, sensing that her attendance of the very course Shinko was robbed of, with such a similar Quirk, would drive a lasting wedge between them. It wasn't only her plans that changed, though; Hajo had always aspired to become a hero because… well, who didn’t want to be a hero? Admiration and glory. The ability to help others. And to be more like her brother.

Now, she [b]needed[/b] to be a hero. To inspire others. To defy evil. To find a way to return Shinko to his former self. She wouldn’t rest until she was able to restore his path, their family's path. And if she had to become the greatest hero the world had ever seen, only so she could make people believe even in a Quirkless young man like her brother? 

Then she would do just that.[/indent]
[sub][color=#cdbdd7][b]Character Development & Conceptualization[/b][/color][/sub]
[indent]Hajo has been a bright and happy, but ultimately simple-minded girl her entire life. I'd like her to mature, to grow beyond the happy-go-lucky desires - The primary catalyst to this shift is her ambition to "rescue" her brother, and by extensions, other people. Though this has been set in-motion already, it's a very recent development that will gradually change Hajo over the course of her time at Ishin.

Second, I'd like her to simply provide a positively-toned backbone to the cast, a source of positivity and comedic bits. This doesn't necessarily require a lot of character development, but it certainly is a fundamental aspect of her conceptualization.

Lastly, I believe a key part of Hajo's growth is that she will find what kind of hero she wants to be. She already underwent the journey of going from "I want to be a hero because it's really cool and my brother is doing it" to finding something she genuinely wants to protect and fight for. However, it's still a pretty vague, childish endeavour without a clear vision of what comes after she's achieved this goal. The possibility of failing completely hasn't even crossed her mind, either. This will be a big aspect of how she will mature over the course of the roleplay; definitive goals, being a hero in practice and situations she hasn't mentally prepared for, and setbacks or even plain failure.[/indent]
[h3]Abilities & Talents[/h3][hr][sub][color=#cdbdd7][b]Quirk Type[/b][/color][/sub]
[indent]Emitter[/indent]
[sub][color=#cdbdd7][b]Quirk Description[/b][/color][/sub]
[indent]Vacuum (真空 Shinkū): Hajo's Quirk grants her the ability to create a localized vacuum anywhere in her vicinity.

Hajo's Quirk allows her to burn up her body's energy to create a vacuum-like effect that is capable of exerting a repellent force as well as sucking objects into it. The Quirk is easily recognized due to the spiraling, lavender-colored distortion in the air marking its area of effect. The Quirk can affect a considerable area, but becomes more arduous the further away from Hajo's body it is used. For this reason, Hajo tends towards using it within her reach.

Unlike a real, perfect vacuum, such as 13's Black Hole Quirk, Vacuum does not disintegrate matter that comes to close, making it much less lethal and more viable for various other uses. Though not quite identical, Vacuum emulates most of the effects of a real vacuum, being devoid of oxygen - which Hajo has used to snuff out flames - and being unable to have sound travel through it, meaning Hajo's perceptiveness is negatively affected by her Quirk. Furthermore, because Vacuum feeds off of Hajo's thermal energy, prolonged usage drops her body temperature considerably, much like a body would freeze in outer space after prolonged exposure

[sub][color=#cdbdd7][b]Other Talents & Attributes[/b][/color][/sub]
[indent]• Overall Abilities: Hajo possesses great precision, flexibility, balance, and athleticism due to her time as a gymnast. Hajo also possesses the ability to keep her wits in most situations, as she rarely loses her positive demeanor, allowing her to maintain composure in dire situations. Due to Shinko playing video games with her often ever since she was little, Hajo has above-average hand-eye coordination, reactions, and a naturally playful and creative disposition towards problem-solving.
• Culinary Expertise: Hajo likes to cook, often imitading the beautifully created dishes she has become used to at home.[/indent]
[sub][color=#cdbdd7][b]Trivia[/b][/color][/sub]
[indent]• Hajo loves otters, and considered applying to U.A. High simply due to the fact their principal reminded her of one.
• Hajo's surname contains the kanji for "vacuum" and "night".
• The hiragana that make up Hajo's given name are homophonous with the Japanese reading for "undulating" or "wavelike".
