Kasukari Sachiko

Kasukari Sachiko, (かすかり幸子 Kasukari Sachiko) also known as Radance (ラダンス Radansu) is a student in Class 1-A at U.A. High School, training to become a Pro Hero. He was born in Canada and moved to Japan at 12 years of age, before his Quirk appeared.

## Appearance

Kasu is a small and thin young man, with thin legs, and arms. His skin is a really dark purple with streaks running through it, that are either yellow, Green or Chartreuse (Yellow-Green). He has lilac eyes in stark contrast to his dark skin, with dark hair as well, complete with a yellow-green streak running through it. He has a bit of ahoge, or unruly hair, which sticks up in a frizzled matter, he often is seen with bangs that seem to seamlessly filter into his back hair.

Another thing about his quirk is that it gives him frills/spines going up the back of his lower legs, starting at the ankle and stopping at the knee both of which glow a dark blue when stressed; he also has frills under his arms too, sort of like webbing. The main thing though, is that under his eyes resides two glowy green-y yellow pouches, that glow in the dark.

During school, he wears the U.A. boy’s uniform, with mostly the same thing, aside from the fact that he doesn’t like to wear shoes, or socks, and the bottom of the pant legs are almost always ripped, due to the frills getting in the way, or being uncomfortable. If he does need them, he puts on a pair of ripped at the back socks, which allow the frills to be free.

Kasukari’s hero costume would be a bodysuit of black, with slits that allow purple, green, or yellow light pass through. He also wears goggles that both go over his eyes, and over the eyespots; the one that goes over the eyespots is clear while the ones over the eyes are tinted black, so his eyes can glow. While hard to make out from the body, it does seem to have a high-ish collar, and with a zipper in the center. There are two slits under the arms that allow those fins to extend. The outfit is waterproof, as well as slime proof (See below, under abilities).

When not in school, Kasukari wears a (usually slime stained) lime green sweatshirt, with a circular, hot pink pin on the top left side of the shirt, which reads “Light It UP!!”. He also wears some khakis (which are also usually slime stained), but no shoes, or socks.

## Personality

Kasukari is a quietly spoken, but still cheery fellow. He is a kindhearted person at heart, and tries his best to make others happy before he gets what he wants to be happy, and is always thinking of things to better help others, or just thinking about things in general. He is pretty reserved but doesn’t mind going out, as long as he doesn’t get mocked, to which he often does get mocked. He is often nervous about one thing or another with very good reason to; Kasukari often suffers from an inferiority problem, often believing he is less useful than others because he is “nothing more than a walking lamp”.

People like to call him weird - which at this point he kind of understands and accepts. He enjoys eating fish cakes, and having sardines for lunch, which *does* make you a little weird, but in a good way, and he couldn’t be happier.

On the battlefield, he straight up refuses to fight, doing more distractions and tiring out the opponent, until they just collapse from exhaustion. Every now and again he will throw a punch but it is one with so little force behind it, that it’s like he’s trying not to hurt them.

## Abilities

Since he’s only had the quirk for only about half a year, he still doesn’t have mastery or knowledge about the skills that he has.

**Overall Abilities:**

* Enhanced Dexterity; As the main way of stalling until tiring out his opponents, Kasukari has become really good at dodging attacks, which is impressive, since he’s only had his quirk for about half a year now.
* Enhanced Perseverance; Even when he was Quirkless, he still was good at doing something for a long period of time.
* Water Camouflage: Due to his dark colouring, aside from the glowing, he can blend in with the water, really easily, and only have his eyes, and mouth glowing.

He also has shown some other good talents.

* Great Swimming; Since he is often coming from Bioluminescent fish, he enjoys swimming, and is really good at it. He can hold his breath for about 15 minutes, and can glow while swimming. He also taught Anu how to swim, too.

### Quirk

**Bioluminescence:** Kasukari’s Quirk gives him the attributes and abilities of most bioluminescent animals.

* Glowing: He can make his bioluminescent areas glow at will, but hasn’t mastered that, and is often putting on a light show, because he gets scared, or nervous so easily.
* Cheek Spot Placing: He isn’t really sure how he does this, but he can place his thumbs on a willing partner’s cheeks, and a couple of seconds later, they will have cheek spots that can glow like he can.

## Trivia

* His first name "Kasukari" means "shining brightly", While his last name "Sachiko" means "Fortune Child". His hero name is "Radiance", just missing the "i".
* For some reason, he likes to eat fish.
* He is currently taken by his babe, Yugioh[1]. (They may or may not be closer than you think)
* His lights tend to go crazy when he gets scared or nervous.
* His primary inspirations are from Lumineon (A Pokemon), Mariana (A Fortnite Skin), and a Lantern-Fish (A real life fish). He was originally also based on an anglerfish too, but the carnivorous nature didn't seem to fit the character.

* He can produce a slime, that when concentrated can be... blinding.
* He has a glowing spot on his butt, like a firefly, though he doesn't like to use it unless he has to...
* He can’t speak Japanese at all.
