#1 Hero
Is there a format you want for villain characters?
Testing the waters with a small-time villain boy.
Either their heads or reality, whichever causes their truth to become a lie. The way it works is taking effect and putting it before cause. The effect is the lie, and the cause is forced to work out to keep that lie from becoming true.A villain that messes with people's heads I see ^^

Say a hero declares "I will stop you!" and he sues his power to turn that into a lie. Suddenly the hero freezes up, unable to even attempt to stop him. Or he might try, and find himself effortlessly pushed aside. The key is that once him stopping Basilisk has become a lie, he cannot make it true. Or in the festival tournament, when Naoto and Kai fought, Kai said he would go all out against his friend, which was reversed into him holding back and being pushed around by the much weaker fighter. Hell, he was told that if he jumped out a window 7 floors up he'd die, so he jumped, the wind caught him, and he hopped down off of a parked car without a scratch on him.
Just those examples show his quirk being: mental (freezing up), physical (overpowering), mental again (holding back), and whatever controlling wind or boosting luck to a ridiculous level would be. So long as heroes keep being heroes and feel the need to monologue just as much as their villain counterparts, he's got plenty of ammo for his quirk to mess things up.

I hadn't considered it working on things written, and that would open up a whole messy can of worms, so let's stick to verbal only.Oh. I thought his quirk was just detecting lies and his 'twisting the truth' is deception on his part...
Creating lies from statements, huh? Is it limited to verbal words? Or can he make written statements into lies as well?

A lie detector that makes lies?

His quirk is listed as just detecting lies. Even he didn't know about the second part until he first used it in his last year of school. The only person who really knows about his quirk being much more powerful than listed is #3 of his little friend group. Kai should know, but he's too dumb to really think about it.Haha, if it's written words as well as verbal his threat level is going to have to be raised. I can't imagine the government letting a villain like that walk around easily.
Since it's written that he attended school, I assume his quirk is registered with the government...or did he lie about his quirk as well?
Contradictions, hypocrisy, and lies. Those are the things Naoto is made of.**immediately starts making a mute hero*

Awesome.

So all those things you mentioned technically still adhere to the laws of the universe, but are just incredibly unlikely to happen. Does that mean he is incapable of bending the rules of reality? I.E. If someone states a scientific truth (such as the earth revolves around the sun) or an obvious truth (such as "I exist") would he be able to change that to a lie? (Unlikely that those would come up in casual conversation, but I'm just curious about his limits here lol)
Yes, there is a scope limit to what can be altered to force a lie. He's generally limited to affecting himself, those around him, or his surroundings. But at the same time, the verbal nature of his quirk means it's flexible and inconsistent, so certain things you might think unchangeable might be twisted in unexpected ways.
The fun example I thought up when writing him was him using a basic question, something he couldn't possibly change, to escape certain capture.
"What time is it?"
*Dumbass hero checks watch* "Five of three."
*Eyes flash red* "Are you sure?"
*Dumbass hero looks again* It now says it's 30 minutes later, and Basilisk is long gone.
Without violating any major truths, he just caused the hero to stare hypnotized at his own watch for a half hour.
I'm debating just tossing up a bunch of villains from my collection, so if one's ever needed it's like a grab bag, just reach in and find a random villain of the week.
Assassins, cannibals, plenty of psychopaths, a phantom thief or two, basically-a-vampire, handful of eldritch horrors, cyber criminals, evil overlords, got a few undead too.
My character closet has far too many baddies stuffed into it. I should probably toss some food in from time to time, but it's only been a few months this time. I'm sure the cannibals are still alive at the very least.
Idk, but together are chars make like a body fluid based Todoroki.Posted CS.
I don't know, is he a bit too old?
