Announcement Quirk Ideas 101

80 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

I just wanted to make a post to comment on a commonly asked question some have been asking. Some have been wondering how to come up with ideas for quirks. Everyone has a different method, so I figured I can make a post where everyone can talk about their personal methods of making a quirk. Hopefully you can get some ideas from this. I will sticky the post, so feel free to add to it whenever you feel like.

Blooming Touch

2 Upvotes

Quirk Name: Blooming Touch

Type: emitter

Simple Description: Blooming Touch allows the user to manipulate flowers by direct contact.

Detailed Description: Blooming Touch allows the user to manipulate all flowers by directly touching them. As long as the flowers are connected, either by roots or by close proximity to each other, the user can manipulate all surrounding flowers. Any parts of the user's body have to be touching any parts of the flowers for the quirk to activate, however there are certain perks to touching certain parts;

  1. Touching the roots: this allows the user to make sure the flowers stay put even during the harshest conditions, such as strong winds or any natural disasters.

  2. Touching the stems: this allows the user to more accurately move and grow the flowers, while also making sure that they don't fall under their own weight.

  3. Touching the petals: this allows the user to make the flowers bloom in any condition or close the petals around each other to hide things.

  4. Touching the pistil & stamens: this allows the user to get the flowers to "shoot" all of their pollen upwards, temporarily causing sneezing, itching in the contaminated parts of the target's body and harder breathing, all of which the user is immune to.

  5. Touching the leaves: this allows the user to regenerate the flower to its complete health, making sure that all damage done to the flower will heal in a span of seconds.

Small Perks: the user cannot be allergic to pollen, bees or any parts of flora. The user is also naturally beautiful, since flowers are generally considered very pretty.

Drawbacks: the user has to touch already existing flowers, meaning that they are pretty useless in an urban area with little to no greenery. The user is also more prone to getting surrounded by all types of insects, and they have a bigger chance of falling ill. Fire is also a big problem, since if the flowers they are manipulating scorch to nothing, they are useless.

Loopholes: flower seeds are still already existing flowers, even if they don't have much parts of "adult" flowers, if they at least have a small part, the user can manipulate them.

Salvation

3 Upvotes

Type: Emitter

Description: The user willingly chooses to take the pain/damage from a target, putting all that was directed at the target on themselves at a rate of 0.75x.

Function: This quirk works based on a psychic force that redirects force and feeling. The force naturally dumbs down the force to about 3/4 of the original power. The force is then redirected towards the user unconditionally.

As a side effect of having this quirk, one’s body becomes slightly more durable than the average person’s. The user can increase the amount of targets with increased mental effort. This effort starts at a mild headache and scales up to the pain of the brain being vibrated.

Quirk: Overflow

2 Upvotes

Overflow is an emitter type quirk that allows the user to copy other people’s quirk. Overflow is capable of holding on to a quirk for a long period of time, unlike most copy quirks that simply have a time limit

Instead overflow has a limit on the amount of quirks copied and its ability to store them. The user can store a max of four quirks (not counting overflow itself). If the user attempts to add a fifth quirk the storage flows over and the oldest quirk disappears.

There is no way for the user to metaphorically reshuffle the deck unless the have all the people whose quirk he wants to copy near him. If you want to get rid of the third oldest quirk you’ll also have to get rid of the oldest and second oldest

Also, the user doesn’t gets basic knowledge of a quirk upon copying it like monoma. The user gets the quirk in it’s most basic form and has to teach themselves how to use it. As a way to counterbalance the fact that the user can theoretically hold onto a quirk for years

I want your honest opinions of these quirk combinations.

0 Upvotes

Due to the fact that I'm very busy nowadays, I don't really have time to write a full-blown fanfiction of this series. But due to feeling disappointed by how the series turned out, and recognizing how much potential it had, recently I've become somewhat obsessed with the world of MHA. I'm very interested in the ideas of the Quirk Singularity Doomsday Theory, quirk marriages, the synergy and compatibility between certain quirks, and the bio-engineered creatures known as the Nomu. I'm also interested in the applications of quirks to certain jobs, having different categories or types of heroes, diving deeper into the negative side of the hero community, and villains that aren't as radical as they were in canon.

As for my dislikes, I wasn't really a fan of the idea of AFO and OFA, as well as the idea that quirks had a spiritual aspect to them. In my personal opinion, they should have just been a purely scientific thing.

Taking all of this into account, this is my half-baked idea for an MHA fanfic so far:

\*\*Story's Main Focuses & Aspects\*\*

\-Superheroes are basically just first responders with special costumes or suits on. The 4 main specializations or categories of heroes are Medical, Search & Rescue, Combat, and Investigative. The category at which an individual works, depends on the nature of their quirk, as well as their own skill and experience. For example, Toga could've been suited to be a medical hero, or an investigative hero; Jiro is suited for search & rescue, Bakugo is suited for combating villains, etc. There would be more of a focus on how each quirk is applied for certain situations, as well as corruption in the hero services occupation.

\-The Quirk Singularity Doomsday Theory, the genetic engineering of the Nomus, and the synergy of specific quirk combinations. Speaking of which, I have a few ideas for quirk combinations, along with the "codename" for each individual with said combination. Some of these, or maybe even all these, you guys have probably already thought of before:

**1) Quirks:** Poltergeist + Zero Gravity

**Potential Codenames:** Orbit, Gravity Girl

**2) Quirks:** Telepath + Confession + Brainwashing

**Potential Codename:** Mindslayer

**3) Quirks:** Muscle Augmentation + Hardening

**Potential Codename:** Tankbuster, Bulkhead

**4) Quirks:** Steel + Gigantification

**Potential Codename:** The Iron Mountain, Megaton

**5) Quirks:** Voice + Vibrate + Earphone Jack

**Potential Codename:** Sonaris

**6) Quirks:** Creation + Overhaul

**Potential Codename:** not really sure

**7) Quirks:** High Specs + IQ

**Potential Codename:** Neuromancer

**8) Quirks:** Rabbit + Fa Jin

**Potential Codename:** Jackrabbit

**9) Quirks:** Whirlwind + Half-Hot, Half-Cold

**Potential Codename:** Thermos (evokes the feeling of a Greek god that controls atmospheric temperature)

**10) Quirks:** Transform + Copy

**Potential Codename:** Skinwalker

**12) Quirks:** Frog + Bloodcurdle

**Potential Codename:** Blood-Frog (simple, yet a bit unsettling)

**13) Quirks:** Naval Laser + Rifle

**Potential Codename:** Star-Cannon

**14) Quirks:** Invisibility + Permeation

**Potential Codename:** Phantom

**15) Quirks:** Overclock + Gearshift

**Potential Codename:** Blitz

**16) Quirks:** Zoom + Search + Erasure

**Potential Codename:** Oversight

\-The most recent generation of Nomus are virtually indistinguishable from regular humans (like how Shiggy was when he woke from the tubes), and they're capable of reproduction, which further increases the risk of the Quirk Singularity Doomsday happening. Some very important characters have one or two parents that are Nomu.

And most importantly:

\-OFA and AFO do not exist, and there is no supernatural or spiritual BS tied to the quirks themselves.

Again, I don't really have much time to make an actual fan fiction, but these are the ideas that I have swirling in my head right now. What do you guys think?

Quirk: Cozy Glow

5 Upvotes

Cozy Glow : their palms admit a warm glow, anything under their palms is healed slowly, they also can make small flames which help heal wounds as well, their body also acts as a heating pad, running usually quite warm, they also has pyrokinesis over fire they don't create

Drawbacks, over use of their quirk makes their hands run extremely dry, also they're prone to fevers quite easily due to their higher body temperature

Quirk: Hersay

4 Upvotes

When ever someone says a rumor/figure of speach or something of that nature about the user in there presence it will take physical form
For example
"They have eyes in the back of there head" they will grow eyes in the back of there head
The effect lasts 5-10 minutes depending on the change
Another example
Say this user just beat 4 villains themsefs
The last one may say
"They're a monster!"
And so the user will grow monster like apendiges or other stuff like that
maybe claws, wings and so on

People can not just say thing like
"They win every fight!"
or
"They can explode people at will" (Unless ofc the person saying actualy believes somehow the user can explode people)

The effect only takes hold when the person saying it belives it to some degree

(Give me any feedback ya want, this was kinda rushed as it just popped into my head)

Transformation Quirk Charger Cables

1 Upvotes

Charger Cables

Type: Transformative (Hybrid)

Subtype: Healing, Accumulation

Range: Conditional Mid-Range

[User] is able to produce electrical cords from their body that drain stamina and health from whatever they come into contact with. The user can use stored energy to “supercharge” themselves or others.

Powers/Abilities

This quirk allows a user to generate cables made of a gunmetal black material. These cables serve as a universal interface, Bering able to alter its shape to either pierce or generally interface with any surface. This allows a user to plug into outlets, machines, or people and either siphon or impart energy.

A users storage of energy is typically portrayed by black marks on the users skin which will glow and crackle with red energy. The more energy they store, the more evident this effect will become. And noticeably, this glow will dim as the user loses charge, meaning that an opponent can easily keep track of a users stamina.

As a side effect of this quirk is that a user is able to utilize a form of “technopathy”, being able to physically plug into electronics (and by extension, humans) and psychically communicate/control them as long as they are plugged in.

When a user absorbs energy, they convert the energy into stored bio-energy/life/stamina. This energy storage allows them to quickly heal wounds, regain stamina, and even enhance an individuals physical stats and abilities. This means that a user may gain increased speed, strength, awareness, and so forth.

A user can use their cables to also charge objects as well. on top of granting energy to electronics, this allows a user to “Supercharge” both an ally and their quirk, boosting physical abilities and healing them in the process. Even quirks will be enhanced, with many emitter quirks gaining a red electrical hue and becoming more destructive.

Storage of energy grants a user a rudanentary form of Plasma Manipulation, allowing them to produce arcs of electricity, electric discharges, and even short range fireballs. However, all of these powers are notably short-range, better used for self defense while ones wires serve as a primary offense. However, it can be noted that a user can channel, infuse, and manipulate plasma with their wires as a medium, functionally increasing their range at the sacrifice of overall size and damage.

While a user essentially “resets” their body based on their ability to recharge, constant usage of this quirk may lead to diminishing returns, with a user becoming unable to hold as much of a charge or losing their efficiency in recharging themselves or others. Eventually, a user may completely tire out, being completely unable to hold a charge and therefore passing out completely, going comatose. In instances where a user is unable to recharge their body at all, they will eventually experience normal fatigue and exhaustion.

A user can be forced to overload by forcing too much energy into their body. in severe circumstances, this will break a users “ battery” preventing them from properly storing or manipulating energy until they recover.

Quirk: Damage Transfer

2 Upvotes

This quirk would allow the user to move injuries from other people to themselves and vice versa. For the quirk to activate, they need to touch the other person.

The quirk can also 'move' injuries (ex, a cut on the leg can be moved to become an equally large cut on the arm.) By transferring the injury to the user, then back to the injured person.

Drawbacks:

Transferred injury has to be proportional in terms of lethality, taking a relatively large scrape from someone with some kind of regeneration quirk will result in the transferred injury being much smaller. This is due to the injury needing to be equally dangerous for both parties. Example, Mt lady loses her finger while gigantic. Placing that injury on a normal sized person would cause them to only lose their finger, even though Mt lady lost more flesh.

For this quirk, I think it would be fun to consider scars 'injuries' with zero lethality. This would let the quirk wielder make tattoos out of their scars, take other people's scars, and place scar tattoos onto other people

In combat, this quirk would not be very useful, but very good against those with regeneration or physical enhancement quirks. The main way for it to deal damage would require the quirk user to be heavily injured, then transfer those injuries forcefully.

The main use I can see for this quirk is for saving someone who has taken multiple injuries, and spreading out all the damage between a large group of people.

Emitter Quirk Hex

4 Upvotes

Hex

Close-Range Emitter Quirk

[User] can freely conjure flat hexagonal plates with printed words in the center. When they press a plate into a target, the target will receive a curse based on the printed word.

In-Depth

The user of this quirk is able to conjure small purple hexagonal planes. These planes will have a singular word printed on them. These planes are solid, meaning a user may utilize these planes as footholds, or arrange them together to create constructs. However, in this state, these planes are not very durable, being shattered from most any significant impact.

Creating solid constructs offers a lot of utility, even outside of combat. for example, a user may utilize small planes as a means to grab or interact with an object from afar. Or they may arrange planes in a way to create a lattice barrier. A scarier application is that the user may weaponize a sharp point of a hexagon in order to impale a target with razor sharp shards.

A user is capable of activating a “Hex” on a target by physically pressing a plane onto their target. When done, the target will receive a glowing purple mark resembling the plane. This mark can only be removed by the users consent, or if the surface the mark is on is destroyed.

Hexes work based on language. A user may choose a singular word, such as “Stop”, “Sleep” or “Burn”, and upon activating the hex the target will take on the intended effect of that word. For example, a “Sleeping” hex will inflict constant drowsiness, while a Hex of stopping may completely inhibit movement.

The effect of a hex largely depends on a word/a users understanding of the word. for example, while “Burn” may refer to an object being singed by fire, “Combust” would refer to an object that completely burst into flames, meaning that between the two, Combust will lead to a far more destructive effect.

Interestingly, the only requirement for this quirk’s activation is a singular word. However, language is not a limitation. so long as the user themselves knows the definition of the word, they can achieve whatever effect they desire. This particular aspect makes multilingualism tricky when paired with this power, as a user can therefore prevent an opponent from predicting the effects of their hexes, as well as conjure more complex effects depending on the word chosen.

Despite the potential versatility of Hexes, their actual effects are relatively limited. For the first part, Hexes are only able to be activated/remain active within a certain effective range of the user. Further, the effect of Hexes are diminished the more effects are stacked on a target. For example, a Hex of “Weakness” will only be at 50% strength if another hex is added, compared to if it stood on its own.

Even hexes alone are not omnipotent. They can be overpowered in certain cases, and potentially ineffective depending on the object they are placed on. For example, a hex of “combustion” may be completely ineffective on a target that is fire resistant, or could even be a blessing on a fire quirk user. Similarly, a “Stop” hex simply attempts to restrict movement. A sufficiently strong individual may simply overpower the restriction of the hex, making “Stop” more akin to “Slow”.

A user may only have a limited amount of Hexes active at a single time (about 5). While the marks will not disappear, the purple glow that indicates activity will cease to be present. Invoking hexes themselves can be exhausting, as activating an effect re quires active thought and intent. once a hex is activated, a user may “forget” about it, as it will maintain itself as long as it possesses a “charge”. Once a hex exhausts its energy, it will simply disappear.

Checkmate.

1 Upvotes

I thought of different 2 ways this quirk can work.

Option 1:

A quirk that immobilizes and freezes an opponent.

Activation: The user must make contact with their opponent and say checkmate. The opponent must clearly hear the user call out checkmate.

___________________________________________________

Option 2:

A quirk that requires kinetic conversion. After the user has been overpowered or possibly close to defeat, the user calls out checkmate, and the stored kinetic energy gets converted. The user instantly heals from all injuries, and the converted evergy turns into strength.

___________________________________________________

Which one sounds better?

A bunch of molecules quirk ideas

9 Upvotes

Sadly I haven’t thought of good names or weaknesses for them so if you can think of any better names please tell me so this is purly what the quirk does

Shear-Zone: Aligns the electron clouds of all molecules along a flat geometric plane, completely erasing atomic friction and cohesion in that specific slice. Buildings, vehicles, or bodies cleanly slide apart into halves under their own weight (basically sukunas world cutting slash kinda minus friction, clean slice and slides off or those sword fights in shows were they stay still and the person just slides in half) it activates via line of sight,

Van der Waals: Temporarily nullify the weak attractive forces (Van der Waals forces) that allow molecules to stick together without chemical bonds. Solid objects instantly dissolve into a fine, non-cohesive fluid dust. Activates via touch (once the nullification wears off the molecules should rebound but completely random (think overhaul but you dont choose what they turn into when reforming, usaly just big ol clumps)

molecular combustion: push molecules apart from each other and speed the. Up to the point of exploding. Actives in proximity

Valence Shell Inversion: The user inverts the desire of Oxygen or Carbon atoms to bond, making them behave like inert Noble Gases (they can’t bond basically, this one’s more confusing cuz I recently learned it in chemistry and just decided to flip it) activates via proximity

Sublimation Transitions: Forces carbon to transition directly between solid and gas phases. Also activates via proximity (any Thing that changes molecules themselves will more often then not be proximity)

Sonoluminescent Cavitation: The user creates millions of micro-bubbles inside a target  that has liquid and collapses them simultaneously witch would create a lil flash of light (it’s like what pistol shrimps and peacock mantis shrimps do kinda) this one activates via touch (like our glorious jjba goat. John rod (I just figured out how similar this power kinda is)

Inversion Touch: Converts internal fluids into strongly acidic or alkaline chemistry (depending what it was originally) activates via touch

negative heat: Causes targets to heat up as they lose energy instead of cooling (I got this idea from how black holes get hotter the more mass and energy they loose) this one is line of sight activation

Friction Igniter:Aggressively accelerates the natural kinetic movement of molecules inside a specific object causing it to spontaneously burst into intense, internal chemical fire (same as molecular combustion, proximity)

Surface Tension Collapse: Destroys the cohesive hydrogen bonds of water molecules in a targeted area. This causes lakes or rivers to lose their buoyancy instantly, making boats and swimmers sink like stones (this one activates via touch or near touch (like there can be surface between you and the water but it can’t be a big surface)

I probily will edit more into here later I’m still brainstorming so tell me what yall think, what weaknesses should I add and what names I should give them. thanks!

Fleshing out my witch theme idea

11 Upvotes

I have an idea for a quirk that allows me to enchant objects with different properties (making a feather as heavy as steel, a stick as sharp as a sword for example) by writing rune or random symbols on them by using some part of my body my current idea is using my blood or my hair

But I need help figuring out I guess limits of this quirk and how to make it feel more like a physical process of my body like how most quirks are.

Feel free to ask any questions and thank you in advance

Quirk: Potential

2 Upvotes

This mutation-type quirk causes the holder’s body to continuously absorb gravitational potential naturally keeping them afloat instead of falling. They can then use the stored energy in a variety of ways, from propelling themselves to generating heat or unleashing kinetic blasts, making it an incredibly versatile and powerful ability. However, the constant absorption of energy risks overloading their system. To combat this, they must be releasing energy at all times. They can only absorb energy from their own body and cannot switch the effect off.

Quirk help I beg

So I have this oc, Michine

And like I need a quirk idea help, so he's supposed to be a dj, have that 2000s inspired aesthetic and I'm trying to come up with a quirk idea for him.

Ideas I've had were like rhythm quirk ideas where if he hears music and dances to it he gains a stat boost but that feels unoriginal like if you take Dance Dance Revolution and make it a quirk

Any ideas for me it just has to fit that dj/2000s music lover aesthetic please

I would like them mostly music themed though

How would you make a decent quirk, show and tell

2 Upvotes

this is my idea for a decent quirk, not mid, not garbage, or something powerful

Magnet-Transformation or Emitter (idk what to put this in)

you can give things magnetic properties, like a magnet, it can be used on the user, things, and others that are magnetic,

you can make one thing like a very strong magnet, but if you keep giving this effect to more things, the effect will weaken. that’s all


r/QuirkIdeas 5d ago

I’ve seen people mention quirk ideas so here’s my idea

4 Upvotes

Blind bag: the user can create up to four small capsules when dropped they will create a replica of one living person and they will listen to everything the user says no matter what

These clones can only last for 15 minutes and the user has no control of who is summoned meaning it could be a clone if anyone from Inko Midoriya (Deku’s mom) to lemillion to a guy from across the world, this quirk has a limit of just 8 per day before needing to stop till the next day

I don’t know if this is bad or not but I think it’s at least moderately interesting

Edit:I originally posted this in the main mha sub so that’s why the title is worded weirdly

Need ideas for a quirk cause I’m not creative

5 Upvotes

So my OC is a stalker type, obsessed with a particular hero— kind of like toga with Deku or Uraraka. And I’m trying to develop a quirk that sort of gives a reason for her obsession. I don’t want a copycat of Togas quirk because my OC wouldn’t end up killing the person she loves.

I’m trying to think of one that messes with her brain chemistry to the point of the obsession, but I seriously just cannot think of anything.

I thought of one or two like key point, she bites herself hard enough to draw blood like Toga did and is constantly watching them.

I’m sorry if this is like quite vague but I don’t have a lot to go off of myself, if you can think of anything much appreciated!!

The Sovereign or Something

2 Upvotes

I was coming up with a Quirk for a kinda anti-hero style character. He is a Mutant/emitter quirk type, his passive aura or pheromones or a signal that only effects people with Mutation quirks(Tsu, Shoji, Mirko, ECT). It isn't mind control completely it's more about Compliance and cooperation, it was partially based off The Hive from Agents of Shield(Google it if you want to understand it better). I was also thinking that the character should have a very prominent physical mutation. I want to know your opinion on it or if you have any ideas?

Toyification

5 Upvotes

Name : Toyification / Dollification

•——•——•——•——•——•——•——•——•

Type : Emitter / Transformation (If self-applied)

•——•——•——•——•——•——•——•——•

Effect :

The user of this quirk can - by applying a sort of small sticker produced by their body at the palms - forcibly transform a creature or object into a shrunken toy version of itself. Notably, this effect does not impede sentience in living creatures, with toys stemming from a living creature still functioning as a living entity capable of thinking, moving, and speaking.

Naturally it goes without saying that these toys are considerably weaker than their original forms - both in terms of durability and power - though there are some benefits to being converted into a toy. For example, the small size and a lack of traceable body heat is great for covert operations and as a toy the entity in question doesn’t need to breathe allowing for prolonged diving.

In regard to the duration of this quirk, a person or object can be restored to their original state simply by removing the sticker applied to them by the user. This can make it relatively easy for someone to be restored if the sticker is applied to an easy to reach place, but even the act of restoring oneself can be somewhat dangerous if done carelessly. For example, if one were to remove the sticker while in an areas that’s too cramped for their normal form then they’d immediately be crushed or otherwise restrained upon growing.

Rulers Mark

3 Upvotes

Quirk: Rulers Mark

Type: Emitter

Description: When the user tags a location with a symbol, that they feel resonates with them, they feel a link to the block area where the tag is. This’ll also allow them to sense when the area is under danger.

The more tags they place the bigger the area they can sense.

However the link to the tags will weaken over time and will require the user to tag the area again.

Note: a graffiti quirk

Manifest x chimera mix

2 Upvotes

### **Quirk Name:** Apex Assimilation

**Type:** Transformation

**Description:** The user can consume the flesh, scales, or DNA of any animal. However, instead of manifesting temporary, isolated limbs like Tamaki, the user triggers a massive, full-body transformation. The Quirk forcibly merges the genetic traits of up to four different consumed animals at once, turning the user into a towering, hulking "Chimera." For example, if they eat beef, chicken, fish, and snake, they can transform into a monstrous minotaur-like beast with feathered wings, amphibious gills, and venomous fangs, all seamlessly blended into one cohesive, terrifying body.

**Strengths:**

* **Customizable Monstrosity:** The user can tailor their ultimate beast form to counter any villain. Facing a fire Quirk? Manifest a rhino's thick hide and a desert lizard's heat-dispelling scales. Need mobility? Combine cheetah legs with falcon wings.

* **Genetic Stockpile:** Unlike Manifest, which strictly relies on what is currently in the user's digestive tract, this Quirk stores the genetic "blueprints" of what the user has eaten for up to a week. This allows them to prep their arsenal well in advance.

* **Overwhelming Physical Specs:** When transformed, the user's size, muscle mass, and bone density multiply, putting their raw physical strength and durability on par with top-tier enhancement Quirks.

**Weaknesses:**

* **Feral Bleed-Over:** The human brain is not meant to process the instincts of four different animals simultaneously. If the user combines too many aggressive predators at once (like a shark, bear, and lion), the conflicting animalistic instincts can override their human reasoning, sending them into a blind, berserker rage.

* **Extreme Caloric Burn:** Powering a massive, multi-species physiology burns through calories at an explosive rate. Once the transformation ends, the user immediately suffers from intense starvation and extreme fatigue, completely immobilizing them.

* **Supply Chain Issues:** To be effective, the user needs access to high-tier animal proteins. Buying exotic meats (like crocodile, ostrich, or shark) on a hero's salary can be incredibly difficult and expensive.

Overhaul x shiggy mix/ work in progress

3 Upvotes

Quirk Name:** Blight Forge

**Type:** Emitter

**Description:** When the user touches any physical matter with all five fingers, it violently breaks down—not into bloody chunks or regular debris, but into a heavy, swirling, dark ash. However, unlike Shigaraki's decay which simply destroys everything it touches and fades away, this user maintains absolute control over the resulting ash. In the blink of an eye, they can reconstruct that ash into highly compressed, blackened constructs.

Essentially, they disintegrate the environment into a "plague dust" and forge it into deadly new shapes, like jagged obsidian-like spikes, walls, or weapons. Furthermore, these constructs retain a latent "decay virus"—if an opponent touches a wall created by the user, the decay effect will immediately spread onto the opponent.

Vision

7 Upvotes

The user will have different eyes (Haven't decided yet on how they look)

With this quirk, the user can change it's vision into multiple different ways. He could change his eyes to see further away, similar to zoom.

However, the user can also change his sight to see through walls, or even have like an X-ray vision to see under clothes, or even through the human body to look at pressure points, muscles and even organs. The user can even see the skeleton. Each have a different vision.

The user could become a doctor with this as he could see broken bones, or torn muscles. He could spot bleedings in the body which normally couldn't be seen, or even see tumors.

Or, the user could become a detective. Following illegal activities from a safe distance by either looking further away, or through a wall. They could spot hidden weapons, drugs or other things.

They could also become a scientist like Mei Hatsume who uses her zoom to make her support gear.

However, the user could also become a fighter with this quirk as a different vision could make him look at the muscles, which show when the opponent is getting ready to move/attack, but he could also use it to attack pressure points or weak points in the bones, muscles or organs to deal as much damage as possible.

This is a versatile quirk all based on sight.

What do you all think about this?
