Luna (Old)

A harrowing past. A cold demeanour. Nothing to his name, nothing left behind. He is like the moon, a traceless light in the night of sky.
==Introduction==
Luna is a cold-hearted man with very few friends. He is calculative and reserved, often minding his own business.
Problem is, business minds him.
==Background==
As a kid, he was one of those born with Quirks. This power was involuntary at the start, bringing his temperatures down to sub zero levels, causing him to be a danger to all those around him. Strangely, this has no adverse effects on himself.
Nonetheless, the damage was done. He couldn't play with others because of his power, and so he grew up alone. His parents, living a hidden life trying to hide their powers for fear of persecution, had no choice but to abandon him when his powers got too obvious. This led to him living in his new place.
===Orphanage===
He lived in an orphanage for a while, enjoying the company of his merry fellows. His powers put them at a distance, yet they tried to socialize with him. Here he picked up more skills and learned how to do more cool things with his powers. Such as making snowmen or ice walls.
It was all fun and games until the Orphanage got destroyed.
And so he wandered alone.
===Wilderness===
The wilderness was an uncaring place. But he was used to it, for who could be as cold as he? Having no need for warmth, he grew up in the coldest place imaginable, devoid of human contact.
Sure he picked up the remnants of travellers' books and belongings every now and then, but it was not as if he needed those. He lived life enjoying the small things, reading about the world, and exploring the forest.
It did help that he didn't need food, and was so durable. Because there were times where powerful beasts assaulted him, until they realized he was not worth their time.
Why? Because he had ice all around him. An ice-like armour protecting him while his insides were cold as the winter tundra. In what landscape would he be an appetizing meal?
And so, he wandered on. Occasionally fighting the territorial wild beast in a contest of patience and training to actually control his skill, he continued his journey, until he eventually encountered the friends from the orphanage he made oh so long ago.

==Physiology==
By all means and standards, Luna is a peak human. Having lived for so long in the wild, his senses became honed and sharp, even though it didn't need to be. After all, if you could avoid trouble, why not? This became the foundation for Luna's training.
Every day he ran. He didn't need food, for some reason, yet he ran nonetheless. It could be due to his interest in nature, or his desire to expand his worldview, but no matter the reason, he still ran. 
He fought animals, wild boars, and other assorted creatures, though he didn't have to. Though he did not need to eat, what's so bad about good food every now and then? He knew that he could enjoy it much easier if he honed his offense, and so he cultivated a fighting style not unlike the animals of the wild.
===Physical Strength===
Luna is effectively peak human, his strength limited to endurance alone. He has a lot of stamina, and can run for long distances, but it does not stave off the buildup of lactic acids and other assorted troubles, so Luna is effectively limited.
===Speed===
Luna's speed is noteworthy, with his consistent training in running. His lower body strength is thus far beyond most ordinary housefolk, and can easily outrun most animals. He can thus be considered barely superhuman in this regard.
His consistent encounters with powerful wild beasts have honed his instincts and dodging capabilities, putting him at a superhuman level. When you get sneak attacked by spitting cobras and venomous creatures too many times, you eventually learn how to avoid them altogether.
===Durability===
By all means he should be peak human in durability, but the nature of his power is such that all attacks are somehow blunted when coming into contact with him, such that his body receives either a bare fraction of the impact for some reason, or feel little to no damage whatsoever. He ascribes this to his body temperatures binding his molecules together in a very rigid way, such that he becomes incredibly tough.
Theoretically high temperatures will significantly harm him and lower his durability, but his quirk, being unconsciously active for so long, is incredibly effective at offsetting such direct measures of overcoming Luna.
Of course, anyone with remotely enough firepower or overwhelming strength can easily defeat Luna, however Luna is incredibly durable for his level of power. It is suspected that building level attacks can damage him, though Luna has never tested it.
==Powers and Abilities==
===Quirk (Arc 1)===
Luna's quirk has manifested in the form of cold, where his body is brought to near absolute zero temperatures, or atleast the surface of his skin. It is unknown to Luna how his powers work, but he does not generate ice like what conventional cold powers do, instead, he can bring the temperatures of objects down easily and harden them.
Luna also realized that he can freeze distant objects as well, the effectiveness decreasing across distance, but his power has limits - the further the object, the slower the cooling down process. The only thing he can freeze quickly is the very surrounding of his body, and so to be effective in combat, he has to be within close range.
He can prepare powerful defenses, but that takes time. He does so by placing his hands on the ground, drastically lowering its temperature. Doing so, water from the surroundings begins condensing on it, before immediately freezing. The process repeats itself continuously until an incredibly durable ice wall is formed, consisting of many powerful internal layers. Thus far he can only localize where the ice wall is formed, but not how and where the water condenses, a reflection of his current lack of skill. 
The longer he sets up the ice wall, the more powerful it will be. His quirk has a compounding effect, the more things he freezes, the more things condense as per the effects of cold, causing a noticeable increase in density over time. The secondary reason is due to the increased surface area of the ice wall, which gives way for more water to condense at any time. This makes the ice walls grow in size quicker the more time Luna has.
The secondary effect this has is a change in the humidity of the air, and a suction effect. Due to the changes in pressure from the sudden condensation of water, things are "pulled" into the ice wall by virtue of force, This gives Luna the ability to use the ice wall relatively offensively given enough time, and also protect his allies with greater efficiency by pulling enemy attacks toward it.
Other than this ice wall, he can condense ice on his hands to create hard ice to throw at his enemies, though it serves no real purpose other than to distract, especially with the level of enemies Luna has to face. 
This is nothing compared to the rate he freezes himself though, despite he himself being unaffected by it. By doing so, he can easily block enemy attacks beyond his league (to a certain extent), reflective of his incredible durability. He can also connect himself to the earth to become effectively an immovable statue.
It is not known thus far by Luna why he does not need to eat, though he believes that with practice, he will eventually learn why. Currently, he has also learned how to reverse the effects of his freezing, such that he himself can remain at room temperature and disguise himself among humans. He has not come up with other ways to use this "reversing" power.
