She doesn't get vexated easily by other people but when she does she tends to snap and lash out on the person she's angered with.

Ari's motivation and stability comes from a male by the name of 'The Angel of the sky', as said in the older chapters that he had saved her during an attack that could have possibly resulted in her death, she looks up to the mysterious man and wishes one day to meet him.

Ari has also sacrificed part of her mental health in order to provide money and a roof for her family by agreeing to the Hero Commission's immoral terms and policies.

Due to her upbringing with the hero commission, she tends to downplay her own insecurities and well being. But, when it comes to others, especially **Keigo Takami**, as she is seen to help him with the same problems that she cant help herself with. She's a strong-willed and capable young woman who was said to reach the top 10 ranks once graduated from UA. Her only dream is to save others in need of her aid and make the world a better place.

## Pro Heroes.

As time progresses, their friendship for each other turns into a fully bloomed romance. Their relationship together is divergent from other typical relationships as they share the same bond as those in an emotional and tactical relationship.

### ***Best Jeanist.***

## Hero Public Safety Commission.

### ***Diane.***

Diane took Ari in when she was just a little child and trained her at the Hero Public Safety Commission. However, the woman's methods of training are immoral and wicked, twisting and manipulating her young mind into thinking different conspiracies. She is also shown as a stubborn, egotistic, arrogant and cruel woman who constantly insults Ari and Hawks. Diane was the one who gave Ari's family wealth and a roof to live under but even with that singular nice act she threatens to exile her family from the property if Ari doesn't do as she wishes.

## The League of Villains

### ***Dabi***

Ari and Dabi's relationship is brutal and torturing. Dabi is constantly threatening the life of her younger brother Sammy Parker as to make Ari do dirty work for him, such as breaking into UA high and stealing information. Dabi is a very intelligent individual and appears as if he knows more than other's estimate. His ways of doing things are cruel, cold and heartless compared to Ari's. Dabi's tactics are insanely smart but at the same time really barbaric and inhumane, most of the time he uses these on Ari to get a reaction out of Hawks as Dabi very well knows and suspects that Hawks is an undercover agent.

## Abilities

**Overall abilities**: Ari is said to be in the top four students at UA, which implies her amount of great intelligence, strength and mobility. She's also a good thinker and strategist. She's good at multitasking, manipulating and being able to keep a stoic face and hide her true emotions.

**Hand to hand combat:**Ari specializes in hand to hand combat since her quirk is only used for short distance combat. Due to many years studying under the Hero Public Safety Commission, Ari has developed a sky-rocketing skill in this area of combat.

## Quirk

Immobilization Ari can immobilize any organic or non organic object she wishes to for 45 seconds. During this time, the object or person, is completely frozen in place, appearing as almost paralyzed. If it is a person she is immobilizing, they can still hear and see everything that is going on around them. They just can't move.

While Ari's quirk is activated, she can still move around freely and think clearly. But her movements will be a little bit slower, as a side effect of her immobilization. However, the more she practices and trains her quirk, the longer she can hold objects in mid air.

She can immobilize up to three things at one time, and she can't do extremely large structures (like entire buildings). She also needs to see the object/person before she is able to immobilize them, however she cannot use her own quirk on herself.

If she exerts enough energy. She can perform telekinetic qualities, such as moving the objects she immobilizes. However, when she moves objects it completely exhausts her so she only does it in times of desperation.
