Akate Omoiya

Hifune Omoiya (brother, missing persons)

Yamada Omoiya (grandfather, deceased)

## Description

Akate Omoiya is a somewhat jovial, if not overly oblivious, teenager with a strong opinion on "right" and "wrong". He is currently a hero in-training and working towards being a well respected pro. Born September 14th to his parents Hado Omoiya (mother) and Suguru Omoiya (father), he was raised surrounded by heroics. His mother was a active hero at the time of his conception, operating under the alias "Jet-Lag", and his own desire to be a hero spawns from his desire to carry on his mother's image.

## Appearance

Akate is approximately 183cm (6 feet) tall, and weighs about 90kg (198 pounds). He has a toned body due to years of training in order to become a hero. Due to his size, people often find his constant grin to be off-putting. He inherits his mother's brown, mid-narrow eyes, and his father's square jaw. He likes to wear "fun" clothes, and can often be seen in anything from coats with shorts, to neon green jumpsuits.

## Personality

The best word to describe Akate's personality is "adaptive". He has great empathy for others and will not hesitate to help people, even at the cost of his health. He desperately wants friends, but can come off as overly-enthusiastic. He tries his best to mold his behavior based on the mood of others, which often results in awkward misreads of a situation.

## Quirk

Akate Omoiya possess a genetically dominate quirk called Exhaust. The vents of his hands and feet burn his calories to produce high-thrust exhaust gas. This gas can be used to propel him forward, or to greatly enhance his jumping height. It is a powerful quirk which is greatly reliable due to it's method of function, with easily controlled power output.

## Family

Akate's family is a matriarchy. Almost no men ever inherit Exhaust. In over 5 generations of Omoiya lineage, only the daughters have ever possessed Exhaust. It is tradition for the current generation's Exhaust user to inherit the position of Thrust Hero Jet-Lag. The current user, Akate, is in the process of becoming a hero, and intends to carry on the alias.

Akate's mother, Hado Omoiya, was the greatest successor to the alias Jet-Lag in the entire family history. At only age 17 she achieved Pro Hero status and quickly became a greatly revered icon of justice. She married her husband Suguru Omoiya at age 24, and at age 25, gave birth to Akate. Once pregnant, she took a leave from hero work, but returned soon after giving birth. Then, at age 29, she was forced to retire after receiving near-fatal injuries while on duty. The cause was never officially released, but rumors say it was a result of overusing her quirk in order to defeat a extremely powerful villain.

Akate's father, Suguru Omoiya, led a much more mundane life. He was born to lower-class parents in a crime heavy prefecture. Growing up, he had to work in order to help his bankrupt and debt crippled parents. At age 23, he moved to Kyoto prefecture for more lucrative work, and it was there that he was attacked by a gang of villains, then saved by at-the-time hero Jet-Lag, Hado Omoiya. He immediately proposed, and was rejected. He never gave up, and for 6 months kept up until, finally, Hado was felled by his perseverance. His quirk, Hypermetabolism, ended up being an excellent match to Exhaust, since Hypermetabolism can greatly increase the activation time of Exhaust.

Akate has an older brother, who he has never met. His name was Hifune Omoiya. He was declared "missing" approximately 2 years before Akate's birth. His location is unknown, and the details of his disappearance are still heavily guarded. His quirk is unknown, but evidence suggests it was not Exhaust, which may be the reason for his disownment from the Omoiya family soon after he went missing.
