BACKGROUND

Ethnicity: Japanese

Abilities/Quirk: Night Terrors

Zan possesses the ability to essentially make his night terrors into reality. Anything he has dreamed, he can make others see/experience as if it were their own, even if they are awake. These manifestations as they can be considered, can be seen by anyone in the vicinity, although typically he focuses on one target at a time. It is in a sense, an illusion type ability, or a psychic ability, however it is still incredibly dangerous, and incredibly realistic, almost impossible to tell they are not in fact real. While the manifestations cannot in fact actually truly cause injury, if the brain believes the body has been injured, it will react as though it has in fact suffered a physical trauma even if it has not.

Downsides: Because he himself suffers from nightmares/night terrors (though they don’t wake him up as often as they used to), he is almost always exhausted, and or falling asleep. Despite this, he seems to somehow be able to listen during classes and still pay attention, even while asleep.

Summarized Personality Traits: Zan is pretty much eternally tired, and all but lives on coffee and energy drinks just to get through the day. Despite this he’s actually rather friendly, and likes to be involved in things going on, even if he does end up sleeping through a lot of events. If he does stay awake, he can sometimes be a bit flirty, and has a somewhat playful personality, though he can get easily drained at times, depending how much sleep he has actually gotten.. He is highly confident in his own abilities though, and when it comes to training or fights, he rarely doubts himself. Otherwise, he’s pretty easy going and tends to tag along if people are doing something.

Other Important details to note: Will Be Added

More detailed background information (and in depth personality and quirk info):

Because he is almost constantly tired or falling asleep, he has developed the uncanny ability to listen to and recall things going on around him, even if he is asleep, and has been shown to be aware and will react to things even if asleep. For example, if someone throws something at him while he is asleep, he will react to catch the object, or block it, however he won’t necessarily wake up. This can be a very entertaining way to pass the time for some of his classmates probably, seeing how much they can get him to react without waking up, and it wouldn’t be the first time his friends did such a thing. Luckily, he doesn’t really mind. If someone speaks to him directly though, he will usually wake up, and respond.

If there is something interesting happening, chances are you will find Zan asleep somewhere nearby, or in the midst of it. If he’s legitimately awake during it, he’s likely to want to be included in whatever crackheaded troublemaker plan is happening because he finds it to be incredibly entertaining.

On top of his apparent awareness of things going on around him while he’s sleeping, he can technically fight while in that same sleepwalking state too, although more intense battles will result in him waking up for it. It’s not an issue of him not taking things seriously, he just cannot help it due to his quirk.

In friendships or relationships though, he tends to be highly affectionate, and is a massive cuddler, so chances are if they are friends, or dating, Zan will probably cuddle with your muse while asleep at some point.

As with most tired people, he can be a bit grumpy at times when it starts to get to him more than usual, however it should usually be considered just another side effect of his quirk, rather than him actually being legitimately annoyed or irritated. He has no trouble making it known when he is in fact annoyed.

Some more quirk stuff -

Things his quirk CAN do:

Create incredibly realistic apparitions of terrifying or grotesque creatures.

Said apparitions can feel very real, and come with things like the sensation of breath, or even connected scents.

Create these illusions on a large scale.

Create multiple illusions at once.

Trap a person in what appears to be an altered sort of reality. (He can create the illusion that a person has been transported somewhere else, however they really have not gone anywhere.)

Things his quirk can NOT do:

Actually cause physical damage to a person (it can only trick the brain into thinking the body has received damage). 

Actually transport a person anywhere (if using the full altered reality type experience).
