Nicknames:

Villain Name: カルマ - Karuma - Karma

Age: 19

Gender: Male



Black and white starkly contrasted by brief flashes of color. His eyes were crimson red and his nails painted brightly yellow. A chain of earrings on his cartilage broke up stark contrast of no color. A black hoari with a flashy red pattern inside, with a sweeping floral design like traditional Japanese wood carvers, paired with a white dress shirt that covered part of his wrist, black slacks with slight bell bottoms and what looked like platform boots.





Akane speaks slowly, though not too slowly, every word and every letter is pronounced with clarity and concise pronunciation. The way he speaks is provocative of who he is, oddly formal, and respectful, polite in a sinister whisper. It hides his cunning and maliciousness. Anyone could mistake him for a well off, educated, and intelligent individual. Which he is. His tone is soft and quiet, drawing out words, and slowly producing each syllable with a grace an elegance that would make some charmed by him.

Dark circles under his eyes and a listless nature sometimes, he comes off as an individual who doesn’t get enough sleep or if he is getting sleeping it’s not good sleep. His hair remains unkempt, rarely fixed from its bed headed state. He has an enigmatic aura about him. One that makes others wary of him, though few know why.

On his own he stands at 5’7”, 170cm, slightly underweight at 117 lbs, 53kg, and stands at 5’9”, 175cm, with his platform shoes. His blood type is O. He has partial albinism in his eyes and skin. Has slight problems with anemia and asthma.

Personality:

There is no hiding Akane’s lunacy, wildly unpredictable at times and prone to random outburst that could literally be all that she wrote and we’d leave it at that. But there are so many elements of Akane that contradict themselves. While Akane can be fickle, and moody. Shifting moods from irritability, to lovey dovey the next, Akane is weirdly not insane despite being insane.

There is a logic and a cunning to Akane, he seems to be clearly in control of all of his faculties that betray his shifting personality. Some wonder if that makes his insanity in fact all simply an act. Akane is cunning, and intelligent. He’s observant of the world around him and can read people like an open book. He knows what buttons to tune and what he has to say to unravel them at the seams. On the surface it appears Akane enjoys making those as empty as he is and suffer as he does. A master manipulator, some wonder if his outburst of crazy is like that of a child who cries, looks around for attention, and continues to cry when they aren’t getting the attention.

Though truth be told others don’t think it’s much of an act when Akane seems to be always slightly on the edge of a mental break. He suffers quite a bit from insomnia, the lack of sleep pushes forward his own psychotic depressive behavior. On one hand Akane seems to not care about others. He lacks remorse and empathy for his behavior and actions. Seemingly not caring about others or who he has harmed.

Then contradicts it by seeking for a family figure, seeking love and affection from others. Needing to know others are there for him and doing things for others. He genuinely seems to enjoy doing things for others, little things like doing their laundry or cooking something up for them to decently eat. He’s probably the one who packs the villains lunches in order to receive their acknowledgement and perhaps a bit of their affection for him.

He seems to both want atonement and at the same time revels in harming, and hurting others. One Akane is cruel, manipulative, controlling, with twisted logic. Another Akane is kind, sweet, loving, and enjoys the company of others. It’s not that that Akane has two different personalities, it’s more like his heart and mind are split. Even Akane probably uncertain why his mind and him are in constant battle. He likes ice coffee, fluffy poodle dogs, likes fashion, hurting people, watching them cry. He dislikes ice cream, big dogs, himself, his nightmares, and that he cannot stop himself from doing bad things.



Weapons: Sai hidden in the sleeves of his hoari



In the tassels is a decorative skull charm with beads



Villain Equipment: Men-yorio - normally his collar is button all the way up to the neck, but when he is out villainizing the world he wears a men-yoroi without the armor attachment.



Strength: Akane is not a strong individual, he’s not breaking walls down any time soon. And he really cannot take another person with super strength fist very well either. He’d probably break under the pressure. He also has slight complications due to his anemia, lack of iron or moderate blood loss has Akane suffer dizzying spells.

Endurance: Akane has a moderate endurance, he probably couldn’t last as long as his fellows with super endurance, but Akane has enough endurance to last escaping a physical confrontation. Due to Akane’s asthma he’s not going to run a race or a marathon, but his asthma isn’t so severe he’s going need his inhaler in combat.

Willpower: Despite Akane’s unpredictable cunning, Akane is quite mentally strong. He has twisted logic, he’s not a raving lunatic. Akane can be quite bold, quite the planner, and because he’s a master manipulator it's difficult for others to use those techniques on him. Few people can influence Akane in anyway and he’s not easily swayed by others mental abilities.

Speed: Akane is average in certain speed categories. It’s really running that gets Akane’s asthma going. So he often takes his leisurely time with getting somewhere or using his cunning to find a way to escape. But Akane is quick with his weaponry, he wields them with efficient swiftness.

Reaction Speed: Akane is quick and swift, he’s perceptive and observes the world around him. It’s hard to catch him off guard because despite his lack of normalcy, inside that crazy mind of his, is a highly perceptive, highly alert mind scanning for the nearest danger. Being a master of cunning, and manipulation allows him to pick out the behaviors of deceit in others, are they hiding a weapon, are they planning to attack, these are the things that allow Akane to move with efficient consideration.



Quirk Name: Heartbeat AM

Ability of Quirk: Theoretically this quirk is the ability to emit emotions through a psychic transmission that acts like radio waves.

Qualities of Quirk:

This quirk allows Akane to transmit his emotions through an area of effect onto others. Technically this means he could transmit positive or negative emotions through this area of effect. But the ability is dampened by the users own mental state. In Akane’s current state of mind he mainly transmits negative emotions, ones that influence others states of mind into various levels of apathy. Akane’s transmissions are limited by a 60ft radius surrounding him and this radius has a various effects on those who enter his area of range.

At 60ft at the perimeter of his area of effect, those with low willpower may feel listless and lethargic, they may feel suddenly tired or exhausted. Those with higher willpower may feel a sense of foreboding and anxiety, though nothing that would majorly impact them.

At the 30ft range within his perimeter and past the 60ft range, those with low feel willpower may feel off or that something is wrong. They may begin to panic or feel anxiety. They may feel bummed out and hopeless. Those with strong willpower may feel slightly fatigued though not greatly impacted.

At the 10ft range getting closer to him those with low will power may begin to feel suicidal, they may begin to experience full on depression. They may begin to feel apathetic. Once they get within 2ft of distance with him it may turn into full on desires of their own death, some may give up. Those with stronger willpower may feel the effects of his power that those with lower willpower would have at the 60ft range.

Theoretically if Akane transmitted positive energies all the effects of the ranges would be the opposite feelings. Feelings of energy, feelings of confidence, feeling stronger than ever before, it act as a buff and not a debuff.



Strengths of Quirk:

Being an area of effect quirk it gives him great crowd control. When you have a group of ten or more individuals sobbing on the streets not willing to move, it’s great cannon fodder for him to escape or cannon fodder as meat shields. If Akane transmitted positive emotions he could theoretically bolster his allies strength. Since Akane has been able to learn to turn his power on and off like a power button he no longer has to deal with the side effects of always transmitting his emotions unto others. Essentially this power is a great disrupting power, that controls a surrounding area of people, as hostages, as meat shields, or as a way to stall for time until his allies escape the surrounding area.

Weaknesses of Quirk:

Because it is an area of effect quirk, it is difficult to target single individuals with the ability. He cannot really pick and chose who is victim is. He also doesn’t really have the ability to choose which emotions he transmit onto others as it is affected by his emotional state. If he is internally an apathetic, mess of depression than that is what he transmits. If he is internally in a good mood, than that is what he transmits. Unfortunately for others Akane hasn’t experienced much happiness in his current timeline of events.

Limits of Quirk:

Well besides the fact that it is based on distance, and based on his emotional state. The quirk itself doesn’t directly influence anyone to do anything. It gives them a feeling, not a verbal command. So they could feel hopeless melancholy, but that’s all the power does. It invades their emotional and mental state and disrupts it. If an individual is to kill themselves or harm themselves, they would need a verbal or some kind of push while in their current disastrous mental state.

History:

That time was a mistake. It was never meant to happen. Does he feel guilt? Does he feel shame for his actions? It’s uncertain. Akane began his first years of life in an apartment that is parents Ishikawa Natsume and Fuma secured. With an older sibling Yuukito. Back then life seem recognizably simple. His parents provided shelter, food, and he had no monetary value to his name. Though Akane struggled deeply with his identity.

Back then Akane didn’t know how to turn off his Quirk and freely broadcasted his range of emotions to those around him. Many of his classmates desired the same things he desire. Many of his classmates felt what he felt. This was all before the Hero Academia. At a young age it built a complex in Akane, one that made him bitter and miserable to deal with. This misery extended onto his family. The Ishikawa family lived in such a state of misery, that one day his parents killed themselves while the kids were still present. Not too shortly after his elder brother committed suicide.

Maybe back then he felt guilt and regret. While others perhaps felt pity for him. He was offered at that age a spot in the U.A. the Principals effort in hopes to reform the young man after the unfortunate events in his life. Being that it was a circumstance not under his control.

In the U.A. he learned many things in order to balance his Quirk. He learned how to turn it off and how to turn it on. He learned that it didn’t just have to be a channel of negative emotions instead it could be a channel for positive emotions. Perhaps if love hadn’t gotten in the way Akane’s future might have been different than it is now.

In his third year at the U.A Akane developed a crush or perhaps a serious affection to a girl named Rika. They had been in the same class prior, but over the years of working together it seemed their powers that complimented each other were also destined to intertwine them together. Kids at school would say Rika and Akane were inseparable. Some of her female friends would say Akane was suffocating and didn’t give Rika her own space. The truth lies somewhere in the middle, all that really could be told was Rika a kind girl had opened her heart to an individual that despite the positivities in his life that he could transfer onto the battlefield to buff his allies, had a deep void split his soul and mind slowly.

In their third year at the U.A Akane vowed to tell Rika how he felt about her. A crush that had developed to strong attachment over the years. He wanted to express to her the truth about his emotions and feelings about her. That’s when events turned unfortunate and sour. On a cool Autumn day in the hallways of the U.A Akane turned the corner down a hallway, flowers in hand and a heart ready to accept back into his defensive walls. Rika was kissing another young man, Shiro. Heartbroken that void that Akane had kept at bay for so long began to bubble to the surface.

Akane vowed that if Rika didn’t love him and he couldn’t love Rika, that Shiro would die. To in love to kill Rika and Shiro, Akane vowed to take Rika’s love away like she took his away. Confronting Shiro and a group of his friends, it was the first time in a long time Akane channeled all of his jealous rage, apathy and depression through his transmission Quirk. Transfering all his negative emotions at once Shiro was the target and his friends became collateral damage.

Akane fled the school before the crime could be pinned on him. Not to later Headlines read; Six Students End up dead at U.A. High School. Mayb Akane regretted. Maybe Akane didn’t. The event is what warped him. At sixteen he consider his options. Eventually the heroes would find him. Eventually someone would try to bring him justice. So Akane ran with various different villain groups. Until more recently he stumbled by the Stray Sheep.

Perhaps the strength of these individuals would give him what he’s searching for. What is he searching for?

Character Sheet:

You shall now witness 'dah might of AFRICA!

Name: Leo Zion

Nicknames: Leo; That lion; Iron Zion

Villain Name: Lord Zion; Iron Lion Zion (His title from natives of Africa)

Age: 26

Gender: Male

--

Weapons: Natural claws (Does that count?)
Hero(Villain) Equipment: None, for now....

--
Combat Section:

Strength: Far exceeding a human-level, thus superhuman level. One of this villains greatest assets. However, he'd never be able to defeat heroes such as, All Might and Death Arms, in an arm-wrestling match!

Endurance/Durability: Greatest attribute of this villian, hence his title 'Iron Lion Zion'. Peak superhuman level. In fact, a lot of physical based damage (Ex. Knives, fists, blunt objects, even some projectiles) can be considered 'useless' against the lion. (Unless backed by a super-power. Thus a hero with super-strength could still easily bruise and batter the Lion with mere punches.)

Willpower: (Except around fire) This lion brings the resolute of the jungle. Meaning mental fortitude is rather impressive. Yet again, bring fire into the mix and he's likely going to lose his cool. Having a slight phobia of fire, and being a easy way to damage him (I.E. fur burns very well...)

Speed: Only with brisk movements, or non-complex moves, can Zion move rather fast. Yet even then, it's nothing too special, as it's merely him using his super-strength to purpell his movements. Comes nowhere near matching the speeds of Heroes such as, All Might, Gran Torino

Reaction Speed: Impressive, third best attribute. (if you don't count his claws) Enough training, and this villain could rely on reaction speed alone to thwart a hero like Gran Torino. Though as it stands now, the lion's far too unruly and lacks the training to do such a feat unless threatened with death... Even then, it would be a 'miracle'.

Quirk Section:

Name of Quirk: Lion's Pride

Ability of Quirk: User possesses the physiology excruciatingly similar to a lion. Plus other things...

Qualities of Quirk: Durability, Strength, and reflexes are the strong suits of this Quirk. Not to mention his claws, which are a force to be reckoned with due to his sheer durabilty.

Strengths of Quirk: Physical strength, durability, and claws are obvious strong-suits of this character. Below are a few more attributes and skills worth mentioning.

• Improved senses Impressive sight. (even in low light levels) Sense of smell and hearing is rather notable as well. However, these 'assets' could easily be turned into 'hindrances' as well. (Ex. Excruciatingly loud sounds, or strong smells, can interfere with his ability to fight. Or extremely bright flashes of light, and complete darkness, can greatly affect his ability to see.
• Claws surpassing steel. Very short length, only about 1-2 inches, forcing the Lion to be a 'close-combat' fighter. This means long-range attacks, or foes, could seriously hinder the Lion's roar. This attribute proves perfect for climbing surfaces, including cement or steel walls. Even provides the Lion a 'weapon' when fighting other blades. (That is, if the weapon can even surpass his durability.)
• Lion's Roar: This big-cat can roar loud enough to shatter windows within a small vicinity, or temporarily daze victims. Even damage hearing for a while. Although, the more someone is exposed to the roar, the less effective it becomes. Also, the lion can only roar extremely loudly once every couple of hours. Or risks grave strain on his vocal cords. Hardly uses this talent as his vocal cords become strained enough that he loses his voice for a few minutes, if not an hour, after performing such a feat.

Weaknesses of Quirk: Horrifically afraid of fire, as it's one of his banes. Succeptable to being damaged by elemental damage, such as fire and electricity. No protection from mind/telepathic based attacks.

• Elemental damage. Fire being the most feared by the Lion. (Actually possessing a faint phobia of fire, to be exact.) Electricity, or tazing, the Lion also proves extremely effective. A pro-heroes like Cementoss, or Endeavor would greatly hinder the schemes of this Lion. The Heroine Midnight would be an extremely hard enemy for the Lion to fight against, as well...
• As mentioned before, Lion's roar has harsh effects on the Lion's vocal cords. The lion loses his voice after performing this talent, if desiring to possibly harm those around himself.
• Slow speed and agility. Relying heavily on his physical strength and durability. A hero like Gran Torino could, quite literally, run circles around this villain with ease. That is, if the Lion never actually lands a hit...
• As mentioned before, long-range enemies will prove encumbersome for the Lion. As prowess lies heavily in close combat fighting.

Limits of Quirk: Due to so many attributes being 'superhuman' level. They will never matchup to a hero who's quirk souley focuses on the same attribute. (Ex. Death Arms would always be FAR stronger than the lion. Gran Torino will always FAR surpass the lion in speed!)

Biography: Easily considered a new-blood to the 'Dark Tree' organization. In fact, Iron Lion Zion only works alongside this group due to them being the key factor to the lion's rescue from his homeland, and furthermore imprisonment in Japan. You see, Leo is from the great country of Africa. Having lived in the savannas and jungles of Africa from birth until the age of 24. Within the two years of living in Japan, Iron Lion Zion has gotten into countless amounts of trouble in the 'concrete jungles' of the cities. Needless to say, Leo stuck out like a sore thumb. Arrogant nature, foolish actions, and sheer unruly attitude, led him on a quick path towards imprisonment. However, the Dark Tree saw the potential within the Lion juggernaut and rescued him from being imprisoned within Japan's greatest jail for villains.

Simultaneously earning the Lion's respect, while concurring a great debt to the Dark Tree organization. Iron Lion Zion is now an undyingly loyal member of the group. By far does Leo consider himself a 'servant' to anyone. Albeit Leo devouts his life, without hesitation, to the ideal that one day the Dark Tree's vision will come into fruition. This lion is extremely arrogant, self-centered, and stubborn. Meaning sometimes his actions do not follow suit with 'blindly following orders'. Yet, with that being said, even the Lion's 'self-centered' goals, or actions, always seem to align with Dark Tree's own in the end of things. Meaning, Iron Lion Zion proves to be not only a valuable asset, but less of a minion and more of a 'general' or 'Lord' by his standards..

Personality: Unruly, arrogant, and eager to poke and prod at other members to 'prove their loyalty and skill'. This makes the Lion a rather distasteful ally for some Dark Tree members. Although his loyalty to the goals and aspirations of Dark Tree are undoubted by all members who get to know the lion. Encounters with Heroes from both Africa, and Japan, has left the Lion feeling the time has come for a new and better era of Superhumans. Not to mention, greatly dispising the mentality of the general populous of mankind. How they can 'blindly walk around with smiles' when dangers and obstacles lie around every corner, nook and cranny, of the world. Considering people who are 'helplessly positive and good-natured' to be 'poor sheep in need of proper herding' and what better sheep herder, or eliminator, than a Lion!

----

Other: IF you missed it, Iron Lion Zion has a horrific fear of fire. Only members who have witnessed this firsthand are aware. Controlled sources of fire, i.e. torches and light sources, don't seem to bother him. Although he's been known to quickly relocate his position if near a bonfire, or any source of fire in general. IF any villains of Dark-Tree manipulate fire, Iron Lion Zion outwardly ignores and does his best to avoid them. Fighting a Pro-Hero such as Endeavor, would be nigh impossible for this villain. Out of sheer phobia of fire....
