[dood1e-bug]

Decided to tweak Kenzo a bit to show hes a mix of Sawk and Pangoro though I didn’t want to go too overboard so markings and toof stick out. New icon for his toyhouse too.

Bonus doodle: baby

*asks u abt ur bnha sona* blease tell me abt them 🔫

Oh i never saw this !!!!! His name is Klaus Itō and ive been revamping him a teeny bit from his original version made in 2017 so NOW his story::

He was born to a father who was a white american pro hero who had moved to japan and married a non-hero lady, when then had kids and popped out Klaus and his oldet brother. His father died when Klaus very young, prolly from hero work idk it doesnt rly matter. He ended up wanting to be like his father tho so he aspired to be a pro hero, which led him to applying to UA!!!! And he got in!!!!!!!!

He was a year behind Aizawa and Mic in school, but the three of them ended up becoming friends pretty quick, bc Klaus and Mic sought each other out as fellow heard of hearing kids and then klaus became friends w aizawa thru mic. Which hey!! Speaking of them being hoh heres the lore!!

For one Mic is totally hard of hearing bc of his own quirk. Probably has tinnitus too fuckin L (i feel you man). Klaus also has lost parts of his hearing bc of his quirk! (I think Mic’s would probably be a lot more severe since much louder + a lot more exposure to it before hes even at UA let alone as an adult. I think once both of them are at UA they both have control over their quirks in that they dont release them out of nowhere so if they do hurt their ears with heir quirks they could hurry to recovery girl and get fixed up a bit [but its not gonna help past damage yk]) oh also Klaus has Waardenburg Syndrome which includes high likelihood of hearing impairments in some way as symptoms so he really wasnt lucky on any front for his hearing.

SO WHATS HIS QUIRK THEN??? It used to be imo kind of stupid so i changed it and now its cool™️ lol. Basically, at will Klaus can release a powerful explosion off of his body. Basically just like emitting an explosion from his whole Self. It doesnt damage him (so long as nothing catches on fire after the blast yk) and he cant only ignite one part of his body or direct it, it goes out from everywhere on his body. The strength of the explosion that is produced is entirely dependent on his emotions! The stronger the emotions, the bigger the blast. Since ur usually not super joyful during battle, its mostly used w negative emotions lol. Once he’s grown up he has a pretty good idea of how big the explosion will be by gauging his mood, and hes practiced a lot of self restraint / meditation type exercises to help him control his emotions when he needs to. If his emotions got the better of him, not only would he make a much bigger bang than needed/intended, he’d also have worse decision making. Both those factors add up to easily hurting civilians or other pros when fighting villains, so he has to be very cautious about using his quirk.

Okay so. He goes to UA. Hes friends w Aizawa and Mic. WELL. when he enters his 3rd and final year (and aizawa and mic have graduated), his mother passes away quite suddenly from illness. It takes a very heavy toll on him, and leaves his older brother as his primary guardian; and he happens to be a huge nasty prick. Klaus very quickly spirals into depression, and its all just very bad. He prolly barely graduates bc when in such a volatile emotional state, his control over his quirk is terrible. Aizawa and Mic try to comfort him as friends ofc, but they both have already been rushed into their lives and signing up with agencies and things, so theyre way too busy to really help him. So, pretty much as soon as Klaus graduates and gets his provisional hero license and shit, he just picks up and fucks off to America, here he works at the agency his father used to work at before going to Japan. And he stays there. For nearly a full decade.

He’s called up by UA either the year before, or possibly the year of when the show/manga first starts, and hes asked to come back to Japan and teach there. And so he Does. I’m pretty sure I had him as..,, a Math teacher 😭 gays dont know math tho so idk how he did that but no matter what he teaches, he is a teacher at UA. And thats!!! When he reconnects with Aizawa and Mic!!!!!!!! And they fall in very gay disconnected childhood friends to lovers fashion. The students get to see their disaster relationships. Its good.

Here is the sketch of a new ref i am making for him currently but its transparent bc i was transferring it to a different device to color a couple days ago (and then didnt color it what a surprise). His hero outfit is just this little spandex suit made of super heat/blast resistant material prolly special made, then he wears regular clothes on top if hes at school or in public and such. When he uses his quirk it Will incinerate his clothes lol so he kind of wears the hero outfit 24/7 just in case

I think thats it tldr he is gay and so am i

Oh also hes probably trans too who knows
