## Appearance :

Chiaki is a young girl with the average height for girls. She has a rather focused and slim face shape that is framed light blue side bangs and even longer side bangs that reach down to her neck on both sides of her head. Her sky blue hair is styled into one light braid that goes down to her waist. She has doe, kind looking eyes that are of an aquamarine shade of blue, as well as adorning 3 black clips on the right side of her bangs.

During school hours, she wears the occasional U.A uniform for girls, consisting of a white collared shirt, a neutral grey blazer, a dark green pleated skirt, black tights, and brown slip on shoes.

Chiaki's Hero costume consists of a regular archer's outfit, which is a black long sleeves shirt, a pair of light blue knee high socks with golden lining on the top, neutral blue socks that were just about a few millimeters above knee length, latticed knee length boots that were of dark blue, and a sky blue jacket.

Her sky blue hair is styled into a low ponytail instead of a braid as well. Her left hand has a neutral blue colored fingerless glove that covers her whole forearm, it also had a black part which only covered the index finger for better gripping.

## Personality :

Chiaki is a rather cheerful and outgoing individual, displaying a very *flowery* and kind demeanor in which she always loves to lend a helping hand to her friends and family. She is easily able to be distracted by even the smallest things if not interested on whatever is being displayed, as well as being a free spirited person. Although a bit oblivious and aloof at certain times, she can be patient, understanding, and friendly towards others.

However, whenever her friends and family are in danger, she becomes dead serious and gets focused on only saving them, no matter what. Chiaki has a tendency to be serious, cold, and rather distant when she is focusing on doing something that piques her attention, such as saving others, or doing her Hero work and training. Chiaki will not hesitate to stab someone with her arrows, but will only attack if her opponent delivers the initiating move.

Chiaki looks up to a retired Hero named Lady Nagant, because of their quirk being relatively similar to hers, except with a rifle. Chiaki bought many Lady Nagant posters, figurines, and even merch when she was younger, all until Lady Nagant was sentenced to prison. She was very saddened about their upbringing, but never threw away her merch. Chiaki's Hero Costume is inspired by Lady Nagant.

## Abilities :

**Overall Abilities :** Chiaki is proven to have complete mastery and shows great profession when handling her quirk, Light Spears. She is capable of sending hundreds, if not thousands of her spears in an instant, making her one of the strongest students in Class 1-A. In terms of power, she would be a few steps behind Bakugo, but is still able to match up against him with a possible chance of winning. She is favored by Snipe due to her superhuman level of eyesight and aiming, even so gaining a nomination from them.

Chiaki can send thousands of Arrow-shaped spears from the ground, or from the air, and can redirect them anywhere simultaneously. She can easily overwhelm an enemy by sending them an army of spears that can instantly obliterate them depending on how much they can handle it. The amount of arrows she uses thrives on her energy. When sending thousands of arrows for almost 20 minutes, a normal human would've fainted halfway, but Chiaki has enough energy to withstand an hour of sending hundreds to thousands of her arrows nonstop.

**Archery** : When Chiaki was about 10 years old, she was able to master the art of Archery, capable of shooting bullseyes from a mile away, she is rather proficient when using a bow and arrow, even going to Nationals once and winning a gold metal for entering first place in the National Junior League of Archery. Now grown up, her skill in archery has grown tremendously.

**Enhanced Eyesight :** Chiaki is very adept and skilled in shooting and aiming her spears. She has incredibly enhanced eyesight that allows her to aim from up to three kilometers away without any scoping lenses. Her sharp aiming skills are honed enough to compete with Pro Hero Snipe, and can even match up against Lady Nagant. Her aim does not seem to be affected in terms of weather condition and darkness levels.

**Creativity/Intelligence** **:** Although not as great as Midoriya or Bakugo, Chiaki has shown to have above average intelligence that mostly puts her in 3rd or 4th place. She is, however, known for thinking outside the box, and can generate thousands of solutions and ideas spontaneously.

**Multi-tasking :** Because of her quirk, Chiaki is shown to be efficient in Multi Tasking, being able to think of other things while focusing on another subject. She is capable of controlling multiple of her spears simultaneously without having a problem at it.

## Quirk :

Light Spears (光槍 *Kōsō*) : Chiaki's quirk, Light Spears, grants her the ability to summon hundreds to thousands of arrows whenever she wants to, Her spears are of the shape of arrows, and are of neon dark blue. Her spears are composed of her vitality and plasma, giving her spears an after effect in which after they have hit their designated location, the spears will probably start to initiate flames that will not die out unless they are extinguished, not even Chiaki can control the after flames of her spears.

Chiaki can redirect and shoot them at multiple places simultaneously without breaking a sweat. She can also summon arrows to shoot out from the ground, but it does take a few seconds for the spears to come out due to the density of the ground. As well as being able to magnify and shrink the sizes of them and even ride one of them if the spear is large enough for her to step on.

However, the drawback to her quirk is that she has to use her own vitality in order to make more spears. The more arrows she uses, the more tired she gets. However, she is able to withstand the effects of her own quirk after honing it for years.

### Super Moves :

* **Spear Sphere** : Chiaki can surround herself in a defensive spiked ball of spears, in which the spears can be used to pierce through objects that might attack her. She can also use this move as a trap when capturing her enemies by turning the ball of spears inside out, with the sharp ends of the spears pointing inwards.
* **Spear Field** : Chiaki can summon hundreds to thousands of spears in the ground, you can see the spots they're going to erupt in if you see a dark blue circle on the ground glowing. They may take up to 3 or 4 seconds before coming out from the ground, due to the density of the earth.
* **Spear Surf** : Chiaki can enlarge one of her spears to the point that its big enough for her to step on it. After hopping onto the spear, Chiaki can start directing it anywhere she wants to, as if she was going surfing.
* **Spear of Plasma** : This is one of the most destructive and energy depleting moves she has in her arsenal. Chiaki has to focus a lot of her energy into one, single spear, and enlarges it immensely. The end size should be as big as a house, afterwards, she can shoot it anywhere. When shooting it to its designated location, the spear will leave behind a large crater that can be as big as a school. It may also cause a great amount of damage to those who were in the attack, with the ones being targeted by it disintegrating into ash, due to the amount of energy and plasma it had. Chiaki almost NEVER uses it, and only uses it on very strong beings like All Might, Muscular, and Nomus.

## Equipment :

On the back of it lies a compartment for a fire proof, plasma protected bow, it was a special request that Chiaki made for the Development Studio to create. Further advancements in her costume might be made in the nearby future.

**Scouter** : Inspired by Lady Nagant, her Hero Idol, Chiaki has a long scouter shaped as one of her spears as a communication device, as well as a scope for when she shoots her arrow-shaped spears with her bow. The scouter may also provide known information about where she's located in, as well as tracking nearby people by using thermographic vision.
