[studiobeebo]

Tell me about your oc please!!

OH BOI!!!

i have 2 oc’s so i’ll just give a lil rundown on my hero oc Mira n then if u want to look into her more you can look under the cut where there will be specific blips about her style, appearence, characteristics, etc.!

Name: Mira Valentine

        Hero Name: Ricochet

Age: 16

Affiliation: UA Hero Course

Quirk: Energy Collection & Redistribution

Explanation of Quirk: Mira can ‘collect’ most types of energy in the palm of her left hand, where it can then be redistributed out of her right in a sort of blast, the color and form sometimes changing depending on what energy was taken in to create the blast. Her weakness would be that the energy she collects has to be directed at left her hand or her hand has to have contact with it, meaning she can’t just absorb it wherever, plus her left hand has been left quite scarred because of it. She also has trouble with centering where she redistributes that energy, so sometimes it just ends up going all over the place which can hurt her and those around her.

Personality: Mira is loud, slightly irrational, and the mere definition of a firecracker. She’s always up for a challenge and takes no shit and her aggressive personality has turned many away from her growing up, so other than her best friend Maile (@roomycupcake‘s oc) she never really had any friends until she got to UA after she and Maile moved to Japan from America. Despite how she is on the outside, there’s actually a lot more to her and it only takes talking to her a little bit to see this and once she’s friends with someone, she’s absolutely loyal and wouldn’t think twice about risking her life for them.

N THEN LOOKS WISE MY FRIEND ROOMYCUPCAKE HAS DONE AN AMAZING JOB DRAWING HER OFTEN

and also a moodboard i did which sums her up p well

vvv IN DEPTH SHIT BELOW vvv

Appearance

Hair color: Ivory peach

Hair style: Medium length 2B curls down a bit past her shoulders. Generally she’ll have her bangs clipped up with the rest of her hair being left down, but during training or exercising she ties it up into a bun atop her head. On special occasions she’ll straighten it, though she’s noticed a lot of times she looks so different when she does so that people often don’t recognize her.

Eye color: A brown/amber color, though they appear to have a golden tinge in sunlight.

Eye shape: Round, though slightly upturned at the corners with a slight sharpness/

Height: 5’0” (152 cm)

Weight: 133 LB

Build: In between mesomorph and endomorph. She is on the shorter side so she’s slightly curvy, but not exactly a perfect hourglass figure.

Complexion: Golden brown skin (Light brown with gold undertones)

Cup size: 38 C

Blood type: A +

Handedness: Right handed, though because of her quirk she’s not all that bad with her left either.

Movement: She tends to drag her feet a lot.

Posture: Not the best. She slouches a lot.

Voice: She’s been told her voice gets a bit strident when she’s excited or pissed off, but generally it’s slightly deeper than the average teenage girl’s voice with a fiery and passionate touch to it.

Clothing

Uniform: When wearing her uniform, she sort of does the bare minimum. Her shirt is often never tucked in or only half way tucked in and she has a habit of just tying her uniform jacket around her waist or not wearing it at all.

Civilian clothes: Because of her quirk, her own energy often gets redistributed out with what she collected so she is often left exhausted and tired all day when she fights, which, in UA, happens every day. This leaves her tired a lot, so when she isn’t at school she doesn’t put all that much effort into her appearance. Generally, her outfits consist of graphic tee’s and plain black leggings along with a choker of any sorts, or any other casual style. It’s rare to see her dress up, but if she did she’d stick to her more alternative style and would probably only go as far as a skater skirt or something simple like that to ‘doll herself up’.

Characteristics

Strengths: She gains a lot of resilience through her stubbornness and she’s never one to back down from a fight no matter the consequences, though a lot of times this is for personal gain as she is both strangely self critical and incredibly confident at the same time. She can talk shit about herself all day long but the moment someone says something bad about her she is on them ready to fuckingg prove that she is just straight up Amazing.

Weaknesses: Well, the self critical aspect would definitely be a weakness. At the same time, the fact that she holds herself highly when she isn’t feeling insecure makes her stubborn and it is very difficult to get her to admit she’s wrong or apologize for something if she honestly thinks she was right, or if she’s just too prideful to admit that she wasn’t.

Likes: While she’s somewhat “grown out of it” since she was a child, the remnants of A.D.D are still very visible and she likes to do things that keep her occupied either in her thoughts or physically, however she finds it hard to focus often so sometimes she skips from hobby to hobby very easily.

On the other hand, she is, simply put, a lazy person and often will only spend an hour or two being active before crashing for the day. That being said, she really loves napping or any other lazy activity including binging on any garbage junk food she can find.

Dislikes: Working out. Again, she gets bored and drained pretty quickly during training so she can’t keep it up for super long which in turn makes her feel like she’s not really improving.

Because she can be prideful, her pride transfers to her friends and when people talk shit about them she can get very defensive as she takes it as a personal attack. 11/10 would deck  a stranger for a friend.

Fears: She’s oddly afraid of dying. She’s heard hundreds of times that this is a fear a future hero shouldn’t have, but in her eyes this fear would just push her to stay alive if she ever is in a life threatening situation.

Hobbies: Still, her favorite interests include any kind of movie or show with plenty of action, a lot of outdoor activities, crafty things (though she’s not the best at those), and of course napping.

She also has a thing for stuffed animals because she can’t sleep without holding something so having a big plushie or pillow to hold is great, however she’s a bit embarrassed by this fact so she doesn’t like allowing people into her room unless she has a chance to hide her plushies first.

Skills: While she may be sarcastic and loud at times, she’s very good at telling when a friend isn’t feeling great and she is always the first in line with surprisingly good advice to help someone out.

Quirks:  She rubs at her eyes a lot? It started out as a thing she did just because she was tired and had to rub the sleep from her eyes but now she does it almost as a nervous twitch whenever she’s in an awkward situation, but it doesn’t happen too often

She paces a lot, but she often doesn’t even realize she’s doing so.

She also uses finger guns religiously and that “ok hand symbol” game??? she is a pro at that.

Myers-Briggs Personality Type: ENFP. The ENFP personality is a true free spirit. They are often the life of the party, but unlike Explorers, they are less interested in the sheer excitement and pleasure of the moment than they are in enjoying the social and emotional connections they make with others. Charming, independent, energetic and compassionate, the 7% of the population that they comprise can certainly be felt in any crowd. 

Health

Physical health: She’s fit enough to be in the hero course, but she kind of does the bare minimum when it comes to working out or eating “healthy”

Mental health: She likes to think her issues are pretty average? She doesn’t need therapy or other help with her mental issues, but just like anyone she can find herself in a depressive mood every once in a while.

Nutrition: H o r r i b l e. She’s been trying to eat better because she knows if she didn’t eat so much garbage she’d probably feel more energetic throughout the day, and her friends get on her constantly because they can tell when she hasn’t touched a Single Vegetable in days.

Sleep habits: Ahh yes, yet another thing for her friends to get on her for. She’s notorious for sending weird messages at 3 in the morning (on school nights too, c’mon mira), but she’s very 2 sided. She either goes to bed at 3 in the morning or at 9 at night and she’s v e r y grumpy when she’s super tired.
