Pyromania99Oswald is an unusual boy. Long black hair, its condition dependent on his mood. When he’s stressed, there will be knots and tangles in his hair. When he’s in a pleasant mood, his hair will be silky and smooth with a healthy sheen. When he’s angry, his hair tends to raise—sometimes that can also be due to static if he drags his feet. Hollow and empty circular sockets are where eyes might have been once. His mouth is empty of any teeth or muscles, which would allow a human to speak. Oz has long accepted that he is no longer human. He stands at 5’11” and is slender in stature though he can make his physique thick or as thin as rope. Oz is a boy composed entirely of living hair.16July 23 (Leo)5'11"172 lbs.Oswald knows that his appearance is stranger than most mutant-types. He’s endured other mutants calling him a freak and has accepted it. The insults: Hairy, Furball, Hairball, Cousin It, and so on; barely scratch him. Long ago, they used to but he taught himself to stop feeling sorry for himself and to embrace his quirk. Besides, he is certain that he has the best hair in the world. He’s very laid-back, modest, and never the first to volunteer for anything. He is so used to blending into the background, being ignored that its become subconscious to be silent while he sits in the back of the class. There are certain humans that he’s sensitive to. The frail and weak—those who are bullied. They don’t have to like him. He won’t tolerate anyone else being belittled because he knew what it used to feel like. Oswald likes to consider himself the emotional stronger person. He can take it. After all, he isn’t human. He isn’t anything.
The hair boy can be a little socially awkward with social butterflies. He isn’t used to being talked to on a regular basis, so it will take him time to grow used to the person trying to engage him. He may ignore the person if they come on too strong—mostly as a defense mechanism. When he speaks, he is very mild-mannered and rarely will ever raise his voice. He’s never really had to.Oswald is the son of the pro-hero and mutant Sasquatch or otherwise known as Harold Crabtree. His mother is a hair stylist and pro-hero called, Haira (sounds like “Hera”) also otherwise known as Jessica Crabtree. It was no surprise that a big hairy hulk and a Rapunzel would fall in love. The two were a match made in some…hair salon up in Heaven somewhere. When Oswald was first born, they were horrified, fearing that Jessica had given birth to a lump of hair. It was Oswald’s cries that alerted the doctor that the ball of hair was a child. After a good shampoo, condition, and detangling solution, Jessica was able to see her child and she loved him ever since. Well, “him” wasn’t decided until later. The Crabtrees couldn’t tell if their child was a boy or a girl until he learned to speak. Since then, the Crabtrees dressed him on and off in boy and girl clothes just to see which ones he preferred. It was a strange mix. Oswald never had a preference until he entered grade school. When the other children believed him to be a boy, they ridiculed him not only for being a freak but for wearing girl clothes. It was the beginning of a lonely life.
The hairball didn’t go to birthday parties. He tried playing soccer to hopefully gain friends, but even with him being a decent player, his own team still didn’t hang with him. He found himself being swallowed up by society. He was drowning, sliding into the back to the point that not even his teachers noticed he was there or gone. Oswald learned to stop resisting and allowed his life to go where it was naturally headed. It was easier to do so, and he had since grown comfortable in his bubble. He was able to focus on his studies and not have to worry about drama. At 13-years-old, he had amazed himself by protecting another kid from a bully. The kid had never thanked him, but it didn’t matter, saving someone brought him overwhelming contentment. So that was why his parents were heroes. That was what it felt like to help someone; to protect them.
Oswald approached his parents when they were available with his determination to follow them down the heroic path. His father was all for it, but his mother was scared for her boy. She knew that Oswald hadn’t seen how dangerous the real world could be but her son was too determined. While Oswald could have used his parents as reputable references to get into UA, he didn’t want to ride his parents’ ponytails into a good school. He wanted to get into one on his own ability.Quirk NameHair Manipulation
Quirk DescriptionOswald has complete control over his hair/body, allowing him to alter, grow and regenerate, change the texture, and color of his hair—although naturally it is jet-black. He can manipulate his hair-body like an appendage, weave it into different shapes and strong bonds. Due to hair lacking in nerves or being directly affected by changes in the nervous system, attacks and damage are virtually harmless to him. He can condense his hair into a solid as strong as a rhino’s horn, sending these vicious projectiles, lengthy spears and tentacles at his enemies. His hair is strong enough to constrict his opponent and trap them in a ball of heat until they faint. Static can be excited between the numerous strands of his hair to allow him to also deliver a surprising shock to his enemies.
Quirk WeaknessTrimming his hair can endanger him seeing as he is comprised of hair. Fire causes his hair to singe and curl-up into a ball of burnt keratin. He doesn’t use hairspray for fear that the flammable aerosol could one day ignite and burn him to death. While Oswald’s hair grows faster than most, there is a limit if he is trimmed or burned to nothing before he can regenerate. Oswald doesn’t eat like normal humans. He will often spread food good for hairgrowth over his body: mayonnaise, coconut oil, jojoba oil, shea butter, etc. He likes these things, and if he doesn’t take care of his body, then he’ll suffer tangles and split-ends. Tangles can immobilize him to the point that a detangler solution won’t work. Instead, he would have to snap his hair which could be a limb in order to permit himself movement. Such situations damages his hair.
I'm sorry but this character seems a little too far over the top. Sorry but it is not accepted as it is.
