**Asa Semi** (瀬見(せみ) 朝(あさ), *Semi Asa*?) also known as **Molpe** (モルペ, *Morupe*?) is a student in Class 1-A, where she is training to become a Pro-Hero.

## Appearance

Asa is a tall young woman with a ghostly appearance and curvaceous build for her age. She has long, stringy grey hair that fades to black at the tips and bright amber eyes, which contrast against her pale complexion. Her hair reaches her hips and she generally has some pulled onto a small side ponytail at the right, typically adorned with beads of some kind. Like a fish, Asa has two fins located just below her ears, which are grey and black. Despite her "spooky" appearance, Asa is rarely seen without a smile.

During school hours, Asa dons the typical U.A. girls uniform: a green striped grey blazer which she leaves unbuttoned, a red tie, a plain white dress shirt which is tucked into a blue-green pleated skirt, black thigh-high socks, and brown slip-on shoes.

In her original hero costume, Asa donned a white kimono top with a black hakama skirt tied into a bow on the front. Paired with this, she wore knee high black lace up boots and matching finger-less gloves. Her pulled her hair into an off center ponytail with various hair ties and she wore a thin screen, similar to glasses, over her eyes.

## Personality

Asa is a quiet, yet courteous young woman with a penchant for teasing those she's close to.

## Abilities

### Quirk

**Siren** (サイレン, *Sairen*?): Asa's Quirk grants her the ability of hypnotizing others with her singing voice; allowing her to control them while she sings and for a brief period after she stops. Despite the Quirk's power, there are several drawbacks.

* Asa is unable to control those without a pulse.
* Asa cannot sing without inflicting the power of her Quirk.
* Use of Siren requires heavy strain on Asa's vocal cords, meaning she can't use it for long.
* Asa must focus heavily on controlling, making her vulnerable in her singing state.
* Asa is unable to control who her singing affects.
