Personal Information
Name:Suguro Umi
Gender:Female
Age:14
Appearance:In her natural form, Umi stands at a meager 160cm (5' 3") and weighs in at 49kg (108lbs); fitting for a girl her age. However, while she might be at an average height and weight, her body looks to be slightly underdeveloped. Namely, it barely looks to have more to it than skin and bone, and with a meager BWH ratio of 15-15-18 if measured in inches and 38-38-46 if measured in centimeters, it's almost as straight as an arrow. Despite this, Umi does in fact stand out from the crowd, thanks to her hair being an uncommon color that is blue, and her heterochromatic eyes, blood red for the left and sun yellow for the right.
Personality & Back Story:Suguro Umi has always been a shy girl, constantly stuttering due to a difficulty she has of getting her voice across. She doesn't want to offend anyone, unwittingly or otherwise; in fact, she's so desperate in not wanting to offend others that she may struggle to say words that are normally spoken with spite or malice behind them. She has an uncontrollable anxiety about her that gets worse around those that she'd never gotten the chance to know. It's hard for Umi to find the confidence she needs to approach anyone, and as a result, she spends a considerable amount of her time in recess alone, whether she wants to be or not. She can usually either be found in the library when outside of class to read more about Quirks as a whole. Alternatively, one can find her in the swimming pool, training herself to make the most of her own Quirk and become more adept as a Hero.
When she is in class, Umi will try her best to pay attention to the teachers' lectures, regardless of how uninteresting the lectures may seem. Unfortunately, she's prone to panicking when called out to answer a question that the teacher asks, and even if she knows the answer, it might not come to her fast enough. The first person that Umi will blame if something ever goes wrong is herself. She'll always find an excuse for why she could possibly be at fault for an occurrence of misfortune, even if there wasn't anything that she could've realistically done about it. Despite the sense of spinelessness that one can argue she has, Umi's heart is in the right place, and she wouldn't forgive herself if she let her nerves stop her from doing the right thing.
Umi lives with one brother, Suguro Teijo, as well as her mother, Suguro Mako, a woman with shark-like mutations that were mostly on the lower half of her body, who had raised the both of them all on her own. Mako is a tomboy who can be a bit of a woman-child at times, and she's vulnerable to being completely love-struck, especially when seeing a couple having a good time with each other. The original plan was that Mako was to simply be a surrogate mother for her best friend and his wife, who couldn't bear children on her own. However, an accident in the procedure had left Mako pregnant with a grand total of 6 children; more than she was confident that she could birth. Umi and Teijo were the two children that Mako kept for herself, whereas their other siblings were given to the young couple, including the child that was planned to be given away. Umi, Teijo and Mako were inseparable as a family, but that changed slightly when Umi failed the entrance exam for UA Academy. She performed fine in the written test, but she displayed a worrying lack of control over her Quirk during the practical test. This resulted in the removal of Hero Points for striking other examinees with her streams of water, which left her with too low an overall score for her application to be accepted by UA standards. Thankfully, there were other academies that specialized in training Quirk Users into becoming Heroes, such as Jigokuraku Academy where Umi now resides. Umi seems to be doing well there for the moment, but only time will tell...
Quirk Information
Name:Human Sponge
Type:Transformation/Emitter
Minor Breakdown:Umi's body is capable of absorbing any and all water that comes into contact with it, and when it does, it grows substantially. While her body has grown through this effect, Umi can expel the water she's absorbed from her hands, feet and mouth in the form of high pressure streams, at the cost of her body slowly shrinking back to its original state.

Tidbits of Trivia:- Umi's costume consists of a special bodysuit that is equipped with a myriad of tubes and other apparatuses that are filled to the brink with water. In an emergency, Umi can remove these tubes and apparatuses and spill their contents on herself at will, making her body grow to a point in which she'd be of acceptable service. What makes the bodysuit special is that it will always stay skin-tight on Umi thanks to the material that it's made of, which has an elasticity to it that seems to know no bounds. Umi has a rebreather that she can also use as an optional addition to her costume, in case she ever has to dive underwater during a mission.
- The bodysuit that Umi wears is the key part of her costume, since its malleability will always allow her to maintain her modesty regardless of how much her body grows or shrinks. Because of this, Umi will almost never take her bodysuit off, not even when bathing or taking a shower. The only times Umi has willingly removed her bodysuit was when it was in need of emergency repair, but even then, her reluctance was written all over her face. While her costume is in repair, Umi will cover herself from head to toe in waterproof clothing, even if the day happens to be hot and sunny. After all, who knows when it will rain?
- One thing that Umi will always remain conscious of is the size of her own breasts in relation to those of other girls that maybe nearby. The flat chest provided by her natural form is more than enough to make her feel uneasy and inferior, but if her breasts become larger than everyone else's due to the effects of her Quirk, she'll be overwhelmed by guilt for allowing them to swell so much.
- While she can be easily weirded out by someone being naked or performing a sexually suggestive action, Umi actually has a much more crippling fear than any of that; her claustrophobia. This is actually more prone to being triggered when she's in her Full Capacity Form, as there's so much less space that she can move around in in that form.
