her quirk is called IRIDESCENCE. she is able to form simple, glowing, and strong shapes out of energy. these include whips, sharp blades, orbs, platforms, etc. she can control their movements and form them in a range of ten meters, but the further they are, the weaker they get. they can be solid—and capable of shattering—gelatinous or even form a liquid, viscous substance which is incredibly sticky.
this is a very versatile quirk, and she has proved to know her way around it using ingenious techniques and showing its different uses. by forming platforms, she is able to maneuver through the air, to further enhance her movement, she creates structures that act as propulsion. kaori’s shown her ability to fight mid to long range with her quirk, forming whips and projectiles. in close combat, she proves equally capable thanks to her physical ability and fighting technique.
despite her strengths, limitations are present. maintaining multiple structures simultaneously has seemed to place significant strain on her stamina, reducing both their durability and her control over time. however, she is a first year student who has got her whole career ahead of her, with plenty of time to train and improve.
quick small post because i’m in a creative block oof xp
Students are separated randomly into specific departments and classes sectioned by the letters A-K.
These departments are:
Department of Heroics (A - B): Students in this department learn everything they need to know in order to become excellent heroes in service to the community. They are trained in battle, first aid, rescue, support, and all manners of heroic-related lessons.
Department of General Education C - E): Students who don’t make it to the hero course are included here. This department supports students aiming for college and other pursuits. It’s also possible for students with good grades and exceptional strength and quirk skills to be transferred into the hero course (And either the support or business course mind you). Basically regular HS but they get to say that they went to UA on their resume.
Department of Support (F - H): Students here focus on developing support equipment that helps heroes out on the battlefield. With a workspace stock to the brim with all sorts of special tools and their own studio to build things, this department provides an unmatched creative environment.
Department of General Management (I - K): This department focuses on all aspects of heroic business, from the founding and managing of hero agencies to the promotion of public opinion regarding heroes. They even do hands-on lessons in venture capitalism. They have a lot of free time.
Each class is usually comprised of 21 students. That means that the total student population at UA would be 693.
We stay in the same class with the same teacher for all 3 years.
Since UA is a highly prestigious school, we get a lot of funding and benefits for the dorms and when we go on trips and whatnot. (Food we buy for the dorms is paid for, we get free snacks/concessions in the sports festival, free hero costume updates and renewals)
The school curriculum is way less loaded than here. The school system is much better.
The Hero Teachers are actually good at teaching.
Since U.A. is famous, it has many sponsors with support and hero merch companies, so some hero course students (usually 3rd years) have their own hero merch already. Students are sometimes sponsored and do photoshoots and are invited to red carpet events. (Following the School Festival, Class 1-A gets loads of sponsors and stuff!)
The teachers and students are encouraged to decorate their classes and most of them do so.
U.A. has a popular school website.
Staff and students are recommended to have Twitter to update the public events, the majority of the students obviously don't take this seriously, there's always someone who has beef and makes it public (Monoma) and it always ends up like those MHA Tweets, it’s the funniest thing ever.
Schedule
School is Monday - Friday and starts at 8:25 and finishes at 15:10. Regular classes take place during the first half of school, then the afternoon (for the Dept. of Heroics) you will have hero training. Only Dept. of Heroics students have an additional 7th period.
The teachers move between classes while the students stay in 1 class (besides electives).
Wednesdays are half days and only consist of hero training (so no typical school work), though sometimes it's replaced by FHS. You also don't have to wear your uniform on Wednesdays.
We will always have some kind of free time for school despite our somewhat busy schedules.
Not all school days are the same (emergency drills, other schools coming to train with us, etc.).
Classes
Core Subjects for Dept. of Heroics
Homeroom: Taught by Aizawa. Acts as a study hall. The class reps will often give a small meeting with the class about important events during this period.
Japanese: Taught by Cementoss. Focuses on reading, writing, and literature.
Mathematics: Taught by Ectoplasm. Covers algebra, geometry, and calculus.
English: Taught by Present Mic. Emphasizes reading, writing, and conversation skills.
Home Economics: Taught by Midnight. Cooking and other aspects of household management.
Foundational Hero Studies (FHS): Taught by All Might, Aizawa or Midnight. Hero related studying: hero laws, safety precautions, first aid, jsl, media training, dividing hero and civilian identity etc.
Hero Training: Taught by various teachers, usually Aizawa or All Might, it changes every week and we are informed about the activities during homeroom. For example: Quirkless Combat, Rescue Training, Combat, Quirk Training etc.
Elective Subjects
Thought by various teachers. This is the only class where students move instead of teachers, these are shared, so you could end up with classmates from other classes. Students get to completely choose what electives they have. If they don’t choose, they are placed in extra training or study hall.

Around UA campus
The updated UA security system is really good. The sensors are so good, you don't even need to have your ID out. They can scan it anywhere on your person. If you lost or misplaced your ID, the gates also have facial recognition software, so it's fine. If you're not a student or staff, you NEED a visitor pass or the school will go into lockdown on you.
We can use our school IDs to get snacks and drinks from vending machines around the school hallways. It’s free and they are replenished daily.
UA has a courtyard where we can eat outside. Most of the 2nd and 3rd years get food from places outside of the school campus and eat outside in the courtyard. Because of this, the cafeteria isn't as crowded and when we eat lunch we can sit and enjoy our food comfortably. The cafeteria is also luxurious and looks like a fancy mall café.
The library is huge and has many resources with much to explore. There are many different levels with varying types of quiet floors and study halls. It's also open 24/7 so students who are fighting to finish a project can pull all-nighters.
There’s a little shop that has U.A. and hero merch and school supplies including books for courses. You can also buy the merch on the online website.
UA has extracurricular groups and clubs for those who aren't in the hero course such as other sports and things like cheerleaders, debate, theater, music, cooking, ballet, and much more. I mean, hero course students CAN do those things but they WILL have a hard time doing so all while dealing with said hero responsibilities. As mentioned before, business course students have a lot of free time and general ED students are basically regular HS students who just so happen to be going to UA and for support course students, it really depends on how much work you choose to take on for yourself.
There is a study center where students who need extra help can go. Students with failing grades must go here for a set amount of hours to get the help they need. It’s strictly work, and talking about anything other than school is basically prohibited. It’s usually run by Ectoplasm and his clones or Hound Dog.
Work studies & Internships
All first years do an internship, it’s required. This is usually after the sports festival when students have had a chance to show off their skills.
Work studies are basically experience-oriented off-study programs that allow students in the hero course who have Provisional Licenses to work with pros at their agencies. Students will be able to use their quirks under the guidance of a pro, and can even be dispatched to fight villains and help out in disaster areas. If you do well, you can be scouted to become the hero’s sidekick.
Work studies are a more serious version of internships. They entail helping pro heroes on the streets and with investigations. They are usually reserved for 2nd and 3rd-year students, who usually have their licenses. 1st years didn't do them in the past. However, with the rise of villain activity, the school decided to open up work studies to 1st years as well, albeit a very small and select few of them. If they didn't find a good agency with a proven track record they wouldn't do it at all.
Events
U.A. has seasonal dances and a lot of events, like Halloween, Hero Day and other festivals.

For students with mutant type Quirks, custom made uniforms are made
Button and sleeve/lapel stripe differences between the department uniforms [1-General education, 2-Hero, 3-Support, 4-Management].
School Bag
Along with the Uniforms the school hands out bags. You can return them and use your own if you’d like.
A standard deep blue nylon matching the uniforms. The U.A. logo sits at the right bottom corner.
Class
If you’re standing at the front of the classroom looking out at the desks, the seating arrangement starts at the leftmost side of the room (“A” names), going front to back and then going to the next row to the right, and so on. keep in mind that the alphabetical order here is based on the Japanese alphabet. My number is 10.
Here's how I laid out the desks for 21 students:
Since we stay in the same classrooms for most of the days we can leave out stuff at our desks. They have shelves underneath with 2 outlets and lots of space.
Class 1-A Friend Groups
Everyone is actually really close, but those are what groups spend the most time together. Of course we hang out in different groups or all together too.
We have frequent movie and game nights, 1-A has a group chat and it’s always active, there’s always someone wanting to do something. Sometimes we invite people from other classes.
hiii here are some quirk ideas for your drself, self-insert, oc, etc !!
** most of these are re-uploaded from my previous post that's now private- sorry (not that sorry)
| overdrive; allows the user to stockpile energy, then convert it into bursts of enhanced speed or strength. It also passively detects nearby threats by sensing hostile or unstable energy.
| encouragement: grants user a stockpile of energy to draw on for physical enhancements; stockpile only grows in response to praise/compliments/encouragement
| chain charge; user stores kinetic energy trhough repetitive movements, user can chain multiple releases together for consecutive enhanced strikes
| double team; creates duplicates of the user— can either be real or just illusions— with the same capability as the original user, once attacked, the multiples dissolve into mist
| lucky cat/maneki neko; a calico japanese bobtail cat mutation, including cat like abilities, and having and bringing people close to the user extreme luck
| owl; so many options— barn, snowy, great horned etc. wings, agility, speed, strength.
| red panda; appearance of a red panda, enhance agility, flexibility, sharp claws, enhanced balance, strong bite, and strong grip, night vision
| cheshire cat; same abilities as the cheshire cat, cat like behaviors, and purple/pink cat mutation
| meta-multiplier; allows the user to multiply other people's quirk genes into their own body, thus being able to manifest other people's quirks (yes like afo) the limit is related to the amount of previous users of OFA
| meta-mix; knocked off of meta-multiplier, the user can copy compatible aspects of other people's quirks and combine it into one
| shards; can manifest crystal as weaponry, shields, or just crystals in general. not the valuable type tho
| energy; energy manipulation. can transfer energy between people, from plants to people, from energy to bursts of power,
| synergy; increases the abilities of intended people around the user to complete the object the user has intended.
| upgrade; allows the user to generate temporary mechanical augmentations, such as armor or boosters, directly into the users body in response to situational needs, the upgrades adapt in real time
| great knowledge; after coming in contact with a copy of physical media (ie. a book) the user absorbs the knowledge stored within it
| mahou shoujo; user has the same general abilities as a main character from a mahou shoujo (magical girl) anime (including transformation, superhuman abilities, healing magic, great luck, etc)
| mirror; after witnessing an action the user can copy it flawlessly
| instructions; the user can see clear instructions to create and build devices or machines the user has seen/thought of
| requip; the user has heightened strength, and has a pocket dimension filled with weapons and gadgets (erza scarlet)
| shield; can create electromagnetic shields or shoot it out in bullets (violet parr)
| alien; has superhuman strength/abilities, can fly, energy manipulation in the form of beams and bursts (starfire)
| crystal; can create crystal structures and objects/weapons (lolirock)
| psybeam; allows user to transform energy into bursts of energy in the form of a beam (like pokemon move)
| overclock; can temporarily accelerate user’s physical and mental processing speed, allowing them to react faster, think more quickly, and execute movements with extreme precision. however, it doesn’t increase their strength only their speed and efficiency.
tips for coming up with quirks or finding inspo !!
☆。action cartoon shows/movies, other animes
⭒˚ my little pony(cutie marks), lolirock, glitter force
☆。pokemon, pokemon moves

Diana Tsukino, aka Juno, the celestial hero, let into UA on recommendation, runner-up at the sports festival, UA's strongest female student, first lady of class 1A, descendant of magical girls,
I don’t know why but I have such a thing for the fact that pupils expand when you’re thinking of/looking at something you love. Like it will all be worth it. All this time I’ve spent trying to shift will finally pay off when I get to look into their eyes and know without a doubt they love me because their literal anatomy can’t even hide it.
note: this is after the dorms system got implemented 𖹭.⭑
⤷ 5:30 - 6:15 𝓐ℳ ♡ˎˊ˗
starting our day bright and early ig
you better believe i scripted that i don't have any trouble waking up in the morning
i have an alarm set but kirishima likes to do early morning runs (fucking MORNING PEOPLE) and will drag me out of bed if he needs to
we have a cute lil running group now
it's usually me, kirishima, midoriya, iida, and uraraka (sometimes bakugou comes with us later on)
⤷ 6:15 - 7:00 𝓐ℳ ♡ˎˊ˗
we like to pick a cafe or something to go to on our morning run so i like to get a lil drink or a small snack to keep me alive
singlehandedly keeping the sweet treat economy going tbh
when we get back, i like to do a little pilates or a yoga/streching workout bc it really helps keep my energy up
also if i'm putting on a cute set i don't want to waste it on a 45 minute run 💔💔
⤷ 7:00 - 8:15 𝓐ℳ ♡ˎˊ˗
to be so honest like a quarter of this time is spent on my boiling post-workout shower (bc i will not be caught smelling bad ever)
then i do my morning skincare routine, put on my uniform, do hair and makeup, and add little accessories to make the outfit cuter 💕
after that i eat breakfast (because that is my favorite meal ever)
groups of people take shifts on cooking for the whole class, but 90% of the time bakugou joins anyway
no one's complaining tho he's a really good cook actually
⤷ 8:15 - 3:10 𝓟ℳ ♡ˎˊ˗
oh yeah baby it's time to LOCK IN‼️
school starts at 8:25 but it takes a bit to walk to campus from the dorms building so we leave at 8:15
we have an odd/even class schedule so we have our regular core classes in the morning, and then hero training in the afternoon
after LUNCH of course (my big back is showing i fear)
honestly idk how lunch rush does it but theres such a huge variety in foods and theyre all so good, you can literally never get tired of UA school lunch
classes are really advanced (obviously) so you know i scripted that i understand everything and get good grades without working too crazy hard
i love all the teachers though, they make classes super engaging and are really good at breaking stuff down/making it easy to learn about
⤷ 3:10 - 6:00 𝓟ℳ ♡ˎˊ˗
after school!!!!!!! yippee!!!!!!!!!!!!!
tbh this little block is just free time, and i spend it on whatever needs to be done/whatever i want
if it's exam season then obviously there's gonna be a lot of homework, study groups, and running to different teachers' office hours
but if we don't have a lot of homework? like 90% of our group outings or mall trips happen during this period.
this time is also really good for grocery shopping/shopping for dorm utilities (cleaning products, little nessecities like toothpaste etc) because it's way easier to get into the city from the UA campus than from the dorms
⤷ 6:00 - 7:00 𝓟ℳ ♡ˎˊ˗
dinner 🤩
like breakfast, we take group shifts on cooking for the rest of the class (also like breakfast, bakugou can and will hijack the whole damn project if he deems it inadequate)
the food is always so gooooood thoughhhhhhhhhhh
but also if no one wants to cook sometimes we'll go out and get dinner at like a resturaunt (if we can decide)
obviously we don't go out as an entire class a lot (maybe once every 2-3 months) but more in our little close friend groups or with the people who want the same type of food
⤷ 7:00 - 11:00 𝓟ℳ ♡ˎˊ˗
tbh the exact time i go to bed varies on the day, but i try not to stay up later than 2:00 on school nights
HOWEVER i do like to start my nighttime routine (shower, skincare, maybe a snack, etc) around 8:00-9:00
i take my meds (sleeping pills bc my owl quirk makes me want to stay up all night) right at the end of all this because they take a bit to actually kick in
unless☝️ i do want to stay up late
but yeah this is my wind down time, so i'll maybe watch a movie/ show (we're watching love island as a group right now) or just scroll thru social media 🤭

trend with my dr's! very much so inspired by @fragments-ofkimdokja and @saintnyneve <3
𝐟𝐚𝐦𝐞 𝐝𝐫 : on a cold february weekend when you're 15, you'll be bored and see a reddit post about a casting call in NYC. it's very important that you go to that audition.
(you'll get the part, body the role despite having no acting experience, meet one of your longest-term friends, become one of the defining actors of your era, get filthy rich, pay for your friends to follow their dreams, and change the course of your life forever.)
𝐦𝐡𝐚 𝐝𝐫 : in sophomore year of high school, you'll be waiting for the school bus when you see a twitter post discussing UA high's new application season. it's very important that you apply.
(your acceptance is the beginning of a very long battle against the hero system, but it's one you'll win by leveraging your influence and power after helping Izuku Midoriya and the rest of your class take down All For One. with him gone, and one of your closest allies (and lets be honest, friend) as the acting President of the Hero Commission, it's only a matter of time before your name is carved into the world you shape.)
𝐣𝐣𝐤 𝐝𝐫 : when you're 14, you'll storm out of a meeting with the American Neo-Exorcist Society and stumble upon a fight between one man against 3 level-three entities. it's very important that you intercept and exorcise them yourself.
(the man's name is Satoru Gojo, and he'll be your mentor, teacher, and surrogate brother for the next few years. ultimately you'll save his life and countless others—defying fate itself and subduing Ryomen Sukuna—and you'll be the best man at his wedding to Suguru Geto, while he'll be the best man at yours to Yuuji Itadori.)
𝐛𝐥𝐮𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐤 𝐝𝐫 : when you're 16, your aunt's friend will cash in a favor she's owed and you'll be volun-told to participate in a cutthroat soccer competition across the globe. it's very important that you go.
(you'll make an international name for yourself in a sport you don't even care about, have crazy relationship drama, and forcibly fix the relationship between your childhood best friend's rival and his little brother. and then you'll graduate college.)
𝐚𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐞 𝐚𝐜𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐲 𝐝𝐫 (shoutout to @lalalian!!!) : in the middle of your sophomore year of high school, you'll wake up in a completely different world with only your parents and the sudden title of 'chosen one'—forced to cope with school, social life, mental health, and the politics of a magical monarchy facing impending war. you'll be told that you must become a living weapon, but it's very important that you keep choosing kindness.
(you'll bond to a dragon, establish the most motley-crew of heroes known to man, drug your best friend with laxatives, hate-love-hate-love a blue-eyed, white-haired BITCH named callisto, 'seduce' no less than 3 villains by showing human decency, outshine the legend everyone compares you to, go to and win a war, and save the world by the time you're 23.)
(you'll overthrow the government before 40 and establish the longest-lived democracy aena will ever know.)
