Denkō Ikazuchi

## Denko Ikazuchi

**Denko Ikazuchi** (雷 電光 *Ikazuchi Denkō),* also known by her hero name **Denko** (電光 *Denkō*), is a student in Class 1-A at U.A. High School, where she got in from Official Recommendations, training to become a Pro Hero. She is the twin sister of Kazuya Ikazuchi, and daughter of Pro Hero Kaji, who was killed in a tragic incident.

## Appearance

Denko is a above-average statured young woman of a fair-skinned complexion and slim yet somewhat curvy physique. She has long slightly wavy half-amethyst purple half-black hair that sits just below her hips left down, with wispy fringe framing the sides of her face. Her eyes possess heterochromia, with her right eye being a deep shade of indigo, and her left eye being violet, the believed cause being her half and half quirk, although this was never confirmed. On her left eye is a distinct lightning bolt-shaped scar, which she got from being struck by lightning when her quirk materialized. Since then, she can only see very faintly through her left eye, mostly rendering it useless.

During the school hours, she wears a modified UA uniform of a formal white shirt with flowy sleeves tied into bows at the wrist, a red tie, pleated blue green skirt, black thigh high socks, and brown shoes. When wearing the school blazer, she wears it leisurely unbuttoned at the front.

Her hero costumes consists of a black bodysuit with a short black skirt that fades into a violet flame pattern at the ends, and dark violet thigh high boots with a black lighting strike on the side that are cuffed at the top, that provide traction to walk on non slick walls. She also wears large violet no frame visor glasses that usually sit on the top of her head, and stud earrings in the shape of purple flames. Last, she sports a hairpin in the shape of a lightning bolt that can be used to direct her electricity when thrown.

## Personality

Despite her patronizing appearance, Denko is a cheeky, laidback, and kind young lady. She is courteous and will go out of her way to help others when they are in need of assistance. Although when thanked upon she tries to downplay their thankfulness as she doesn't like the feeling of being thanked. Unlike her friends Uraraka and Izuku, her reactions tend to be understated, although she feels very proud of their accomplishments.

She is very quick to comeback at rude behavior, such as when she she calls out Katsuki Bakugo for his impoliteness. Due to this, she rarely lets anyone get under her skin, and . In return, she is always kind, as she always believes all they need is a push in the right direction.

In flashbacks before attending UA, she is seen to be very harsh about her opinions on other people regardless of who they were. Denko was seen to act haughty, finding it hard to understand the morals of regular human life. She was ignorant of the other issues happening around her, such as a rise in villains causing crimes. However, her attitude changed drastically once her mother was killed in a incident involving villain's.
