Personality: Nero Yamato, the scourge of the seven seas, or at least that's what his father Kazuhiro calls him, is a rather respectable yet somewhat shy young man. Having been born and raised on one of the small fishing villages on a small island off the coast, the big city life was completely new to him and the large crowd of people even stranger. He is kind and gentle despite his appearance, and an extremely environmentally friendly individual. Though it does give him a feeling of being overwhelmed by the massive city. He would like to explore all of it but is also afraid of being "swallowed" by the city and its lifestyles and end up forgetting his small village roots and values.
Nero feels intimidated by the others who are attending the school mainly due to not knowing them or the full capability of their quirks. This is due to the fact that he's mainly feeling a bit of nervousness wanting to leave a first good impression and also wanting to do his village proud out of fear that he would shame them if he made himself look bad. As much as he would hate to admit it Nero does care about what others think of him, he worries that if he didn't portray himself to be a good person then he would be labeled in some negative aspect and then if he were to go home he wouldn't be welcomed there. It's all of course an irrational fear but still the kind of fear that drives his actions when meeting someone new. He feels that here in a new place that if he we're to be himself then he wouldn't be accepted by his peers and he doesn't want to have to spend the whole time in school all by himself, he would like to make friends but even that has him worried. Which people would he be friends with? He has heard about social groups in schools, such as the cool kids or the athletes. Though he knows that probably wouldn't apply much to a hero school but sure the school would have its own groups wouldn't it? And because of that he wants to find the perfect group for him, one that wouldn't change who he really is and allow him to be accepted.
Alhough he is more than happy to be friendly to anyone and everyone just as everyone else was back in his small fishing village. If he feels threatened then his inner beast kicks in, meaning he himself becomes a bit aggressive and pushy, not willing to take trash from anyone, not even from the importers who wanted his fish for cheaper or wanted to overcharge them for importing it. And when Nero gets worked up he gets mad, he always tries his hardest not seem as terrifying as the alphas of the sea that he resembles but it's hard to not look like terrifying shark when one is scowling and barring his teeth out of anger or frustration. Even getting mad is something that he's afraid to do because he doesn't want for others to fear him all because he got upset. He wants for others to see him as him, not as a vicious predator, or even worse, a weapon. Especially if he accidently gets into a blood frenzy which happens if he smells blood, not exactly a threat on land but in the water? He can smell even the smallest drop and that alone could be enough to send him into one.

Backstory: Nero, just like his father, has a mutation type quirk that makes him remeniscent of a shark, specifically the Isurus oxyrinchus aka the shortfin mako shark. He lives on small island near Japan in a fishing village composed of about 30-40 people. Everyone knows everyone there and the Yamato family is well known for hauling in a lot of catch for the village, catch that can be sold to the mainland to help village pay for bills and services. Nero himself developed his quirk at the age of 4 mutating into a shark over time like his father, and when his transformation was complete he began to join him eventually becoming a full fledged fisherman at a young age, hauling in his own catch. One day when was helping with the loading of fish into a barge he overheard some dock workers talking about the Peace Sign Academy. He talked to his father and Kazuhiro explained to him about hero schools on yhe mainland and how heros are loved by everyone and well paid. That last bit attracted the young fisher man...fisher shark? If he could get paid then he could help further support the village and his family. Eventually he talked to his father about his plan, who was hesitant at first but wanted nothing but the best for his son giving him permission to leave. In order to get to the mainland Nero had booked passage with one of the boat captains who was along time friend of his fathers. The trip was not for free on Nero's behest who told the captain to allow him passage and he would happily catch fish for him along the way.
Relationships:
Father: Kazuhiro Yamato, Mother: Jin Yamato
Quirk: Chondricthyian mutation: Nero's quirk is a mutation type quirk in that his body and overall metabolic processes are reminiscent of the shortfin mako shark. Able to swim at incredible speeds ranging from 40mph to 60mph. Like the lungfish or mudskipper he can breathe on land and also breathe underwater with his gills located on his neck. His lungs and certain parts of his gills being coated in guanine, a protein that makes it impossible for water to permeate through osmotic means is what grants him his underwater breathing capabilities, along with the traditional oxygen extraction methods. Like a normal shark his liver is extremely enhanced allowing him to resist most forms of poisons and toxins, granting him the capability to even eat poisonous/venomous fish and cephalopods. (A Shark's liver makes up a large portion of its ventral abdominal cavity) He has electrorecption when under water, able to feel someone's heartbeat if they are nearby as well as electrical discharges of electrical fish along with feeling vibrations underwater due to the lateral line he has lining his back, this is lessened if he is wearing clothing.
His teeth are pointed and razor sharp making it difficult for him to chew since he has to shred his food in his mouth. Over time he has learned how to eat as cleanly as he could, with only the juicy meats making a mess. Unlike his father, Nero cannot undergo a transformation that allows him to go into a more shark like form, yet, the chondricthyian blood quirk in his father has granted him the transformative ability, Nero has yet to gain that ability. Contrary to belief he does not need to remain constantly hydrated to function, as long as he drinks the occasional water he is fine, or only if it isn't hot. And just like regular sharks the smell of blood could send him into a frenzy which would take time for him to recover from. Over the years Nero has tried his hardest to learn to control it, only going as far as not letting fish blood trigger him.
While not a product of his quirk, Nero is incredibly fit and strong due to his life long occupation of being a fisherman, hauling large nets of fish that were both heavy and created drag when tugged in the water.
Special Moves: The riptide, capable of using it underwater and on land (with less efficieny) nero speeds towards his opponent using his natural claws he unleashes one powerful slash that can cut and lacerate flesh easily. If under the effects of a bloody frenzy the slash is enhanced and Nero follows up with a bite afterwards.
Items: Fishing rod, small fishing net. A photograph of him and his family, some of his savings (enough to feed him on days he doesn't go fishing) clothing and a shark tooth necklace.
Skills/talents: fishing and preparing fish for cooking, creating delicious meals wih little to no ingredients. Able to swim in great depths and able breach the water 20 ft into the air if swimming at full speed.
Theme Song: (optional)
Favorites: (optional)
Other: Nero is normally honest, which can be a problem as being honest at the wrong moment could backfire.
I'd do a happy dance if I wasn't feeling so tired ^^" maybe ill do one after breakfast. So do I just hop in? Or is there a preferred time you have set in place for me?Still a far cry from ideal, but I guess it's acceptable
Approved!
I recommend talking with your fellow players and see if anyone wants to jump with ya, so ya have interaction right awayI'd do a happy dance if I wasn't feeling so tired ^^" maybe ill do one after breakfast. So do I just hop in? Or is there a preferred time you have set in place for me?
Space_Kaiser at least the first one wasn't fixed at all...This personality is still a Gary Stu through and through. In the few times where it does have serious flaws, they are immediately contradicted. It is in desperate need of serious flaws
After hearing about how the tails are supposed to work, in that in pratice they are physical objects, how can they combine?
Quirk: Beast Notes Beast Notes is an emission type quirk that allows Rei the control of a beast made of shadow through the use of her voice. An odd combination of both her mother's and father's quirk, Beast Notes is a physical construct that is made of her voice. This meaning that it activates whenever she speaks regardless whether she wants it to or not. When using her quirk, she can manipulate the beasts movement through song that acts much like a chain for it. Each genre of music allows it different abilities that can prove useful but dangerous as well. Instruments such as guitars and keyboards can enhance those abilities, but Rei must be speaking in order to use it at all. Her quirk does not work unless she is actively singing as playing instruments alone does not activate it, only increases certain aspects of it.
Genre Attribute are attributes given to the beast when that genre is played.
Acapella: Standard beast. A bit stronger and more agile than the average lion and overall, pretty tamed. Easy to control but does nothing to amplify it's ability.
Rock & Heavy Metal: Doubles the speed and strength of the beast at the cost of loosening the reigns. The beast is more wild and can choose to reject and ignore orders that Rei gives it. This does not usually last long as singing rock in general puts a strain on Rei's voice as she has to continue wailing high and low notes in order to maintain the song. The most difficult genre to carry that puts stress on her voice.
Rap: Hardens defenses, making the beast's body as hard as a rock. Speed of rap can increase hardness, but with Rei's skill in it she can, at most, make it as hard as steel but this does not last for long as she can not maintain such high speed rapping. The beast is tamed but can show some attitude.
Country: Despite disliking the genre, this is perhaps the most versatile of the three. The beast body becomes more flexible and gain the ability to create doppelgangers. These doppelgangers are not as strong as the original but prove to be very useful in capturing people.
More will be added when she discovers them.
As versatile as her quirk sounds, it is not meant for long drawn out battles as it takes a great toll on Rei's voice after using it. Aside from that, Beast Notes has a great deal of flaws that make it extremely difficult to use in a fight. The beast can go as long as it can clearly hear Rei's voice. This meaning that it can go as far as it hears Rei's voice. If it tries to overstep that boundary it will appear to be trapped within a invisible cage. The use of a microphone and or speakerphone can help increase distance but the static can sometimes weaken the effect. Another thing to note is that the beast is an animal, a living creature that lives within Rei, specifically in her voicebox. When done with her quirk it return to her voice through her mouth, forcefully making her swallow it whole. There are times where it wants to come out and can cause visible bruising on her neck due to struggling.
I guess it is acceptable now. Do be careful to live up to to kind of character you made, though.Quote: "No matter what don't let the bullies hurt you. Stand up, fight back not literally though, and show them what your made of." ~ Tou to his little sister

Nicknames: Tou
Desired Hero Name: Umbra
Age: 16
Gender: Male

Appearance:
View attachment 334204
(soon to be) Hero Costume: The costume consists of black clothing with black pants. White lines run down from the shoulders and upper thighs to the elbows and knees respectively. Beyond those points are bracers that run up until his hands and feet. He then has small white gloves and shoes after those points. All along his back he had pads that ease and relax his muscles so he doesn't overexert himself while using his quirk.
Height: 5'9
Weight: 155 lbs.
Personality: If you know Tou, then he is a friendly and approachable person. The people who know this however are few, as asides from the small amount people who know him he appears to be to be someone who really can't be approached. Not that he looks scary, but because he seems to ignore others around him and doesn't talk to people all that often. Reason for this is because he's just a huge ball of nervousness and doesn't know how to approach people since he himself hasn't done so before. This is evident as when say he is called to give an answer and says the wrong one, he sweats and thinks about how others are calling him stupid.
He gets embarrassed at things like calling the wrong answer (more embarrassed than others), how he acts when bees and such appear near. When talking to new people he'll get nervous and scared when they ask a question he can't respond with in simple answers, at which point he'll feel embarrassed at how foolish he is acting.
If you try to approach him he'll seem not to care, when in reality he doesn't know what to say unless someone asks a question he knows very well or if its the occasional hello or good morning. He doesn't know how to act in a social situation so if you keep talking to him after he gives his meek responses, which are usually 'yeah, uh-huh, hmm, okay' not in that order. If you can crack that shell of his then as said before he'll be that type of person.
Tou also isn't confident in himself or his abilities as a hero, none the less he feels as he should go for it as a goal because deep down despite his lack of self esteem and confidence, he truly wants to help but just doesn't know how to. That's why he is entering the hero course so he can learn how to gain self esteem and confidence, as well as how to approach people.
Tou, despite how silent he appears, is actually very smart. He can come up with solutions moderately quick, if it is something easily solved. However due to his lack of communication and social skills he doesn't tell those around him about his plans and will act on them by himself. This gives the appearance that he is a total solo player and only looks out for himself, when in reality this is not the case as he thinks the plans aren't good enough but still tries them by himself.
As mentioned before Tou has a lack of self esteem/respect, and doesn't think he isn't good enough to be a hero let alone someone to be looked up to. Seeing that people close to him say he does have the skills and wants to be a a hero, especially his sister, he went and looked at top notch hero courses albeit with self doubt and a hint of regret. None the less he doesn't want to disappoint his family and friends and looked for schools with good hero courses. Even though his sister yelled at him to apply to U.A, he felt as though he was no where near good enough for that school and instead applied to the school they supported and applied at PSA.
When he fights he'll use his tails as an offensive and defensive tool. They can lay multiple punches within their range and are powerful. If he is up against an enemy with something the uses a long range quirk he uses them as a shield if he can. If something is in range that his tails can latch onto he'll use that as extra mobility to get to places quicker as well as outmaneuver an enemy. If someone is weak or weakened enough he'll use his tails as a restraining type of tool as well and hold them there until reinforcements arrive to relief the situation. If an enemy does get in close enough to where his tails can't get to in time, Tou can use his martial arts training and fight in hand to hand combat (as that's the reason he practiced it at the insistence of his father until he quit).
Despite his skills with his quirk he doesn't think he is good enough to become a hero, and sometimes feels as though he is forced to become one. Despite his thoughts telling him to quit before anything can go wrong and cause even bigger embarrassment, he still presses on not knowing truly why.
Likes: Dogs, Ice Cream, Video Games, Catching up on world events
Dislikes: Bees, Carrot Cake, Math (not bad at it, just doesn't like it), Loud Noises (like parties and stuff)
Fears: Anything that stings, like bees and wasps and stuff. This can only be counteracted when he gets a bad sunburn, as at that point he shuts off all of those feelings
Mannerisms: Unconsciously he'll always have one tail out until otherwise pointed out, at which point it goes away. After a few hours though it'll come back out
Backstory: During his life Tou was raised normally by loving parents, a little sister who looked up to him, and had high grades attending school. When he was four his quirk manifested as a shadow on his upper back. As to why this was his quirk was more than likely that it was the result of the small chance that his mother and father quirks became compatible to be passed on. His mother had the ability to grow tails on her lower back up to three times, while his father had the ability to control shadows as long as they were within a twenty foot range. As he grew up though every two years the ability to grow another shadow tail became apparent, marked by a intense twitch of muscle where the tail can appear from. He chose PSA because he felt as though he wasn't good enough for U.A and after finding out that PSA was endorsed by the top school, he chose the academy as his top choice.
Relationships:
Father and Mother: Tou's mom and dad were lenient on him while raising him, but pressured him to always do good in school and to make the right choices. This proved effective as when he graduated middle school he was top of the class, and one of the more liked students.
Sister: Tou's little sister, who's quirk more resembles her mother's, looks up to him as a person she can count on. Seeing as a guardian, influence, and friend she cares for his well being deeply and always reprimands him for overusing his quirk mainly because she's afraid to see him hurt.
Quirk: Adaptive Shadow; Allows Tou to generate shadow tails on his back to act as extensions of himself, while also adding a new one on a set time on a open area of his back. Presently Tou can use seven shadow tails, but is only able to control three freely. Anymore than three and his back muscles begin to be stressed and tighten the more tails he attempts to use. With designs he made to his costume, the back pads should allow for an ease of pain on his back and relax his muscles. Every tail he attempts to use after the ones he can normally use limit his movement and the range of the tails, while also increasing the pain in his back and lowering control. Using all seven will immobilize him and diminish the tail range significantly, as well as barely being able to move them. Using his three default ones he can extend to the maximum range of fifteen feet, while adding a new one after decreases the range by four feet. Tou can also use these tails for offense, defense, mobility, restraint, and saving purposes giving him the ability to be an all around fighter and rescuer.
Whenever he uses his tails though it is like a meter, the control and energy used decreases and increases. For example using one tail requires no energy and has full control over it, due to the fact that his body had grown used to having that one tail around. When using three the control is about 95% control and only using 5% energy, meaning that he is able to use it for hours without feeling any negative effects. When using four tails however control drops to 70% and energy use is 30%, only able to maintain the four tails for an hour at most. Halfway through his back begins to ache and get sore, slowly spreading to his legs and shoulders. At five tails he has 50% control and 50% energy being used, which only give him about half an hour of use of five. While using five tails there is a steady increase of aches and pains in his back, legs, and shoulders and near the end of the duration his head and arms begin to feel the same effects. When using six tails he has 15% control and 85% energy being used. At most he has ten minutes using these tails and all the while his back, legs, arms, head, and chest are sore and in pain. His vision also begins to tunnel and he runs out of breath at an alarming rate. Using all seven tails gives him no control over them and every bit of his bodily energy it being used. His entire body would be in pain, his vision weaker, and would be on the brink of passing out. He has never gotten to even try to use seven tails due to the immense pain and lack of control it brings.
Special Moves: Shadow Spire; Tou can entangle his three tails to act as one, large tail that deals a massive hit. The tails aren't combined though and instead look like three strings twirled around together. This limits his body's movement however.
Items: Back heater for when he trains his quirk, his phone, wallet, and portable game system
Skills/talents: Cooking, six years of martial arts experience (quit recently)

you know, country music isn't that bad when you find the good ones, which is the oldies :,^)- Country Music
technically, a little over 100 is the threshold of pain for a human, and i believe 200 is a little too much. especially for a student. 200 bursts ear drums (and i believe causes death? dont quote me on that though. but permanent hearing loss is a given for long periods of time) i recommend maybe 120? the charts im looking at say 120 is like, front row concerts, so perhaps there or much lower. idea will most likely have something more to say about this than i do, though.200 decibels

A young girl whose sweeter than a ball of cotton candy during a spring festival, kinder than a priest during new years, and lovelier than a bouquet of roses. Rei is indeed, the exact opposite of all those things. Lazy, sharp tongued, a prankster, and perverted, Rei often refers to herself as a classy degenerate. Classy in the sense that she is a little more reserved than the stereotypical hooligan and degenerate because, well, she is. Rei is a far cry from elegant and an even farther cry from a respectable young woman. She is loud, not verbally, but from the way she plays her guitar to the way she furiously types on her phone, one could tell she doesn't need a voice to express herself. When communicating with people, she can be incredibly blunt and straightforward not being one to tip toe around delicate situations. If the answer was going to be the same regardless, might as well get to the point.
If that wasn't enough, Rei has an incredibly bad habit on spying on men in the name of research. Being an internet BL author she has found herself needing more resource material to add realism to her writing. Intelligent in all the wrong places, she capable of sneaking into places where she has no business being and if she can't get in through by normal means she find another. If nothing else, Rei is determined. To add the icing on the cake, Rei can be a very scheming person. Yet another example of intelligence misplaced. If she want something to happen she will do whatever's in her power to make it so. She often does this when gather info for her fan fic or when playing pranks on people.
Despite all her negative traits, Rei does make for a decent friend. Not the best as she is constantly looking out for number one, but good enough to make her tolerable. In her bluntness she may seem rude but what she speaks is what she truly believes. She is a surprisingly very honest girl when discussing serious and trivial matters. The same would not be true if with a teacher, but if the topic doesn't concern her secret escapades to the male only showers then she didn't feel the need to lie about it. She finds solace in music and likes to bring others along with her so they can enjoy it as well. Rei is very fun loving person and can be incredibly persuasive at times.
A secret that she keeps hidden under her perverseness and fun loving attitude is the fact that she is a coward. She does not like it when the stakes are high, especially if those stakes include her life. It's amazing that she even went through with the application to enter this school. A selfish person to the core, she constantly thinks of herself before others. Unlike many of the applicants of this school, she came PSA to do more with herself than be a mute salary woman. She is also one to easily let go of things if it seems impossible. Having given up her life's dream of becoming a singer, it become simple just to label something impossible and quit.

Biography
Rei came from a middle class family, her father being your typical salary man while her mother switched between being a part-time housewife and part time whatever job she had during the time. Her mother constantly got fired from her jobs due to her uncontrollable temper. A former gyaru rock singer, she found it difficult to settle down and build a family having lived a life full of twists and turns. The old Yui would have never seen herself doing this but love makes a woman do crazy things. Thus she married a bear nosed man with as much personality as a wooden board and had Rei as a result of it. Like her mother, Rei was a wild child who enjoyed playing pranks on her unsuspecting father which soon extended to her younger brother. A busy body, there was never a dull moment when Rei was around. Whether that was a good or bad thing is up for interpretation. At daycare she was a huge trouble maker, causing a ruckus during nap time and secretly stealing other's snacks. They often had to call her mother who would end up punishing her by forcing her to watch an hour long documentary on the history of Japan. If not that then she'd smack her on the head and give her mopping duty and since they didn't own a mop she was made to clean the floors with a white cloth. She hated both equally so. Her behavior only got worst when she entered school.
When she wasn't setting off fireworks in the house, smuggling toys in her baby brother's diaper, or avoiding punishment, she was listening to her mother sing. A young Rei found comfort in her mother's soothing voice that echoed throughout their small house. Listening to her sing was one of her favorite pass time and after awhile she became interested in music, singing in particular. Finding no harm in teaching her, her mother began coaching her the way she was taught to sing. A decision she soon regretted as she gave the demon that was already terrorizing her home a new weapon. The house was now filled with nonsensical noise that sounded more like a banshee than it did a child. Despite this, her mother continued to help her, hoping that she could at least transform this banshee into a cow, a duck if she was lucky enough.
It was around this time where Rei began developing her quirk in the form of a small plug on her back that her mother called a "port". She had remember seeing her mother with something similar on her back, but unlike Rei's, her hole was always covered with by a black dot. Her mother called it a "port plug" that help keep it from collecting dust when she wasn't using it, and seeing that she never did it was always closed. Not knowing what her quirk actually was aside from the appearance of a port, her mother took it upon herself to show her. Along with their singing lessons she went about showing her daughter what the port was for. Removing the port plug for the first time in front of Rei, she placed the jack of a microphone into and suddenly formed a large speaker on her chest and thighs. Her mother then began to sing through the chest speaker and then alternated between her thighs, adjusting the volume and bass to them. Essentially a living stereo, Rei found it amazing to be able to control how loud the sound of her voice would be through the speakers. Interested, Rei had her mother plug the mic into her back where she began forming five speakers onto her own body, two more than her mother had. At first she couldn't even get sound to admit from where she wanted let alone make it louder of softer. After a few months of training, she was able to at least admit a sound from her forehead speaker that was a bit louder than a dog's barking.
Her days consisted of going to school, playing pranks on her brother and father, and spending time in the garafe with her mother. Learning to use her quirk had been fun, and being able to be her own personal stereo made it even more enjoyable for her. When she and her mother practiced she often told her that their port was fragile and not to fiddle with it nonsensically. She never really thought much of it before, but she would soon know the true meaning of those words. She was around eight years old, her brother five. The two were in the room together as Rei began singing with the mic plugged up to her port. Kei, who was sitting with his action figures, became interested in singing with Rei who agreed to let him sing when she was finished. A five year old and patience did not go well together and so he tried to pry the mic from her hands. Being the bigger kid, Rei shook him off and pushed him to where he became angrier, deciding if he couldn't play with it then Rei couldn't either. He angrily removed the jack from her neck, fidgeting with it before pulling it out causing his sister to fall to the floor. Not knowing what he did, he began crying which called to attention their mother to see a unconscious Rei on the floor with a mic in her hand and the jack on the floor. Rei was rushed to the hospital afterwards.
The doctor examined her and explained that her vocal and shoulder nerve had been slightly damaged. Although not severe, it would take some time for her before she would be able to move her shoulder or speak without pain. Rei didn't much understand what this meant so right after a good night sleep she went back to her antics. However, when she tried to speak a sharp pain in her throat would stop her from letting the words out. Her shoulders were also unbearably sore and didn't allow for her to raise her hands above her shoulder or wear anything heavy like a backpack. This persisted for a few weeks before Rei was said to be able to speak again. The news excited her, but when she tried to speak she couldn't, the pain stopping her in her tracks. Noticing this, her mother asked why she was still hurting to where the doctor responded that the nerve was completely healed so he couldn't tell her. He suggested that she might need a bit more time to recover and sent them home with pain killers. Rei never spoke again after that.
It was later discovered that Rei was in good health and that she should be able to speak properly. Doctor's began hypothesizing that it wasn't that she couldn't talk it was more that Rei didn't allow herself to. It was explained that sometimes patients who suffer trauma like this become scared of the pain and once healed they memory of it makes it hard for them to adjust to it. Meaning that even though there was nothing wrong with Rei, the memory of what she felt kept her from speaking, even creating a phantom pain in her throat whenever she tried. This left Rei devastated, the idea that she couldn't sing let alone speak made her sick to her stomach. She tried to overcome this, returning to her everyday pranks and shenanigan as if she was fine. She wasn't though and her mother knew that better than anyone else. She understood how hard it was to give up singing, especially if it wasn't of your choosing. Wanting to make her little girl happy again she introduced her to the guitar. Not even remotely interested in learning, her mother forced her into trying it out where she, at first, found it to be boring. After awhile though she began to like strumming it, the sound sounding awfully like someone singing. With that, Rei decided to learn how to play it, her mother having turned her banshee sounding daughter into an even worse sounding broken car engine. The price to pay for Rei's smile.
Years went by as she grew accustomed to living without her voice, coming to rely on her smartphone to communicate with others. Going to school was a tad bit difficult having to converse with her friends and teachers through the use of a machine, but even that became easier as time passed.

Her middle school teacher had given them an assignment where they were to write an essay on where they saw themselves in ten years. It had her thinking, where did she see herself in ten years? Looking at her specs, she wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed, her grades ranging from average to mediocre. She was a bit athletic, but there were loads of people who were worlds better than her there. Rei had dreamed of becoming a singer of her own band, but now that seemed impossible for her. Her guitar skills could land her into a small time band if she tried hard enough, but even that was a stretch. With her dreams taken away from her what was she to do now? That was when she thought about becoming a hero. When she was a child, she was so caught up in her dreams of being a singer that she didn't really take much interest in heroes. They were cool and exciting, but she was never one to risk her neck out for some lone stranger on the street so she thought the job title wouldn't at all fit her. However, looking at her options now, she could either become a lame salary woman like her father or actually do something that seemed worthwhile. The answer was obvious to her, so she applied for PSA, UA being a little far out of reach for someone of her quirk and mindset. It was an actual surprise she managed to get in.

A young girl whose sweeter than a ball of cotton candy during a spring festival, kinder than a priest during new years, and lovelier than a bouquet of roses. Rei is indeed, the exact opposite of all those things. Lazy, sharp tongued, a prankster, and perverted, Rei often refers to herself as a classy degenerate. Classy in the sense that she is a little more reserved than the stereotypical hooligan and degenerate because, well, she is. Rei is a far cry from elegant and an even farther cry from a respectable young woman. She is loud, not verbally, but from the way she plays her guitar to the way she furiously types on her phone, one could tell she doesn't need a voice to express herself. When communicating with people, she can be incredibly blunt and straightforward not being one to tip toe around delicate situations. If the answer was going to be the same regardless, might as well get to the point.
If that wasn't enough, Rei has an incredibly bad habit on spying on men in the name of research. Being an internet BL author she has found herself needing more resource material to add realism to her writing. Intelligent in all the wrong places, she capable of sneaking into places where she has no business being and if she can't get in through by normal means she find another. If nothing else, Rei is determined. To add the icing on the cake, Rei can be a very scheming person. Yet another example of intelligence misplaced. If she want something to happen she will do whatever's in her power to make it so. She often does this when gather info for her fan fic or when playing pranks on people.
Despite all her negative traits, Rei does make for a decent friend. Not the best as she is constantly looking out for number one, but good enough to make her tolerable. In her bluntness she may seem rude but what she speaks is what she truly believes. She is a surprisingly very honest girl when discussing serious and trivial matters. The same would not be true if with a teacher, but if the topic doesn't concern her secret escapades to the male only showers then she didn't feel the need to lie about it. She finds solace in music and likes to bring others along with her so they can enjoy it as well. Rei is very fun loving person and can be incredibly persuasive at times.
A secret that she keeps hidden under her perverseness and fun loving attitude is the fact that she is a coward. She does not like it when the stakes are high, especially if those stakes include her life. It's amazing that she even went through with the application to enter this school. A selfish person to the core, she constantly thinks of herself before others. Unlike many of the applicants of this school, she came PSA to do more with herself than be a mute salary woman. She is also one to easily let go of things if it seems impossible. Having given up her life's dream of becoming a singer, it become simple just to label something impossible and quit.

Biography
Rei came from a middle class family, her father being your typical salary man while her mother switched between being a part-time housewife and part time whatever job she had during the time. Her mother constantly got fired from her jobs due to her uncontrollable temper. A former gyaru rock singer, she found it difficult to settle down and build a family having lived a life full of twists and turns. The old Yui would have never seen herself doing this but love makes a woman do crazy things. Thus she married a bear nosed man with as much personality as a wooden board and had Rei as a result of it. Like her mother, Rei was a wild child who enjoyed playing pranks on her unsuspecting father which soon extended to her younger brother. A busy body, there was never a dull moment when Rei was around. Whether that was a good or bad thing is up for interpretation. At daycare she was a huge trouble maker, causing a ruckus during nap time and secretly stealing other's snacks. They often had to call her mother who would end up punishing her by forcing her to watch an hour long documentary on the history of Japan. If not that then she'd smack her on the head and give her mopping duty and since they didn't own a mop she was made to clean the floors with a white cloth. She hated both equally so. Her behavior only got worst when she entered school.
When she wasn't setting off fireworks in the house, smuggling toys in her baby brother's diaper, or avoiding punishment, she was listening to her mother sing. A young Rei found comfort in her mother's soothing voice that echoed throughout their small house. Listening to her sing was one of her favorite pass time and after awhile she became interested in music, singing in particular. Finding no harm in teaching her, her mother began coaching her the way she was taught to sing. A decision she soon regretted as she gave the demon that was already terrorizing her home a new weapon. The house was now filled with nonsensical noise that sounded more like a banshee than it did a child. Despite this, her mother continued to help her, hoping that she could at least transform this banshee into a cow, a duck if she was lucky enough.
It was around this time where Rei began developing her quirk in the form of a small plug on her back that her mother called a "port". She had remember seeing her mother with something similar on her back, but unlike Rei's, her hole was always covered with by a black dot. Her mother called it a "port plug" that help keep it from collecting dust when she wasn't using it, and seeing that she never did it was always closed. Not knowing what her quirk actually was aside from the appearance of a port, her mother took it upon herself to show her. Along with their singing lessons she went about showing her daughter what the port was for. Removing the port plug for the first time in front of Rei, she placed the jack of a microphone into and suddenly formed a large speaker on her chest and thighs. Her mother then began to sing through the chest speaker and then alternated between her thighs, adjusting the volume and bass to them. Essentially a living stereo, Rei found it amazing to be able to control how loud the sound of her voice would be through the speakers. Interested, Rei had her mother plug the mic into her back where she began forming five speakers onto her own body, two more than her mother had. At first she couldn't even get sound to admit from where she wanted let alone make it louder of softer. After a few months of training, she was able to at least admit a sound from her forehead speaker that was a bit louder than a dog's barking.
Her days consisted of going to school, playing pranks on her brother and father, and spending time in the garafe with her mother. Learning to use her quirk had been fun, and being able to be her own personal stereo made it even more enjoyable for her. When she and her mother practiced she often told her that their port was fragile and not to fiddle with it nonsensically. She never really thought much of it before, but she would soon know the true meaning of those words. She was around eight years old, her brother five. The two were in the room together as Rei began singing with the mic plugged up to her port. Kei, who was sitting with his action figures, became interested in singing with Rei who agreed to let him sing when she was finished. A five year old and patience did not go well together and so he tried to pry the mic from her hands. Being the bigger kid, Rei shook him off and pushed him to where he became angrier, deciding if he couldn't play with it then Rei couldn't either. He angrily removed the jack from her neck, fidgeting with it before pulling it out causing his sister to fall to the floor. Not knowing what he did, he began crying which called to attention their mother to see a unconscious Rei on the floor with a mic in her hand and the jack on the floor. Rei was rushed to the hospital afterwards.
The doctor examined her and explained that her vocal and shoulder nerve had been slightly damaged. Although not severe, it would take some time for her before she would be able to move her shoulder or speak without pain. Rei didn't much understand what this meant so right after a good night sleep she went back to her antics. However, when she tried to speak a sharp pain in her throat would stop her from letting the words out. Her shoulders were also unbearably sore and didn't allow for her to raise her hands above her shoulder or wear anything heavy like a backpack. This persisted for a few weeks before Rei was said to be able to speak again. The news excited her, but when she tried to speak she couldn't, the pain stopping her in her tracks. Noticing this, her mother asked why she was still hurting to where the doctor responded that the nerve was completely healed so he couldn't tell her. He suggested that she might need a bit more time to recover and sent them home with pain killers. Rei never spoke again after that.
It was later discovered that Rei was in good health and that she should be able to speak properly. Doctor's began hypothesizing that it wasn't that she couldn't talk it was more that Rei didn't allow herself to. It was explained that sometimes patients who suffer trauma like this become scared of the pain and once healed they memory of it makes it hard for them to adjust to it. Meaning that even though there was nothing wrong with Rei, the memory of what she felt kept her from speaking, even creating a phantom pain in her throat whenever she tried. This left Rei devastated, the idea that she couldn't sing let alone speak made her sick to her stomach. She tried to overcome this, returning to her everyday pranks and shenanigan as if she was fine. She wasn't though and her mother knew that better than anyone else. She understood how hard it was to give up singing, especially if it wasn't of your choosing. Wanting to make her little girl happy again she introduced her to the guitar. Not even remotely interested in learning, her mother forced her into trying it out where she, at first, found it to be boring. After awhile though she began to like strumming it, the sound sounding awfully like someone singing. With that, Rei decided to learn how to play it, her mother having turned her banshee sounding daughter into an even worse sounding broken car engine. The price to pay for Rei's smile.
