**Henko Hanashidasu** (話し出す変更 *Hanashidasu Henkō*), also known as **Booster Hero: Augment** (増幅器ヒーローオーグメント *Zōfukuki Hīrō Ōgumento*) is a student in Class 1-A at U.A. High School, training to become a Pro Hero.

## Appearance

Henko is rather short, with a petite but strong and athletic build. Her skin is fair. Her hair is silver, roughly shoulder length and straight, with a few tufts of hair and a soft fringe coming down slightly over her eyebrows. She typically wears it up in a short ponytail. Her eyes are round, with a few, quite thick eyelashes, and her irises are lime green with her pupils being in even lighter, almost yellow hue.

Henko's school uniform is typical, but her blazer is particularly large on her, the sleeves completely concealing her hands. Her skirt is of an average length, slightly above her knees. Henko's shoes are white high top converse, and she wears tights. Her casual outfit is typically comprised of thick layers and long sleeves, such as cardigans, as well as soft, fluffy materials.

## Personality

Henko is a very quiet girl, who never hesitates to keep to herself. Many of her classmates, save a few of her close friends seldom hear her speak, if at all. It can be noted that she is visibly shy and introverted, and struggles to open up to new people. It took Henko a long time to connect with the other girls in 1-A, but over time it has begun to happen. Though it isn't obvious because she never tells anybody, she's a very emotional person. She isn't easily offended, but she is quite self-critical.

Given her soft and secluded nature, Henko has always struggled to succeed in what she enjoys most; helping others. Her Quirk is inherently designed for the sake of teamwork and cooperation, but she lacks the ability to vocalise with her teammates in combat situations or scenarios of any kind. In order to achieve her goals of becoming a hero, Henko is very serious about building the confidence to openly communicate primarily with her classmates, as they are her closest allies. It's a massive challenge, but every day she comes closer to being a more open person.

When Henko first considered becoming a hero was actually when she first ever saw them in action. It's a vague memory to her now, but her parents distinctly recall a time before she discovered her Quirk watching a group of heroes performing a rescue mission on the television and excitedly expressing the desire to do what they do. As she's grown up, Henko has been inspired by a multitude of heroes, but above all are two in particular. Miruko, the no.5 hero, is her primary inspiration. Though in personalities the two are completely juxtaposed, what Henko found admirable was Miruko's strength. As one of the top heroes she displayed passion for what she does and the power to support her on the way to her goals. Equally, Suneater of the previous Big Three was an inspiration to her particularly for her nervous tendencies. When she saw how exceptional somebody that struggled socially like Amajiki could be, she was only further encouraged to pursue her dreams of helping other heroes and saving those in need.

## Abilities

**Overall Abilities:** Despite her social anxieties, Henko is a capable person with experience in mixed martial arts and the power to improve the capabilities of her fellow students and heroes. Physically, she is surprisingly impressive and effective, able to achieve magnificent feats of athleticism, though she wouldn't show that side of her too willingly.

**Athleticism:** As mentioned, Henko's body is toned and strong and allows her physical strength in battle and sufficient agility for dodging and running.

**Empathy:** As quiet and closed off as she is, Henko has an intricate understanding of other people, which makes her ideal in rescue scenarios where she can comfort victims with a soft voice and deep understanding of how others feel.

**Helpfulness:** It's undoubtedly an overlooked strength, but particularly as a result of her Quirk, Henko can help other heroes achieve their absolute greatest, and such an ability goes hand in hand with her empathetic nature.

### Quirk

**Augment** (増強 *Zōkyō*) is an emitter Quirk that interacts with other Quirks. With this power, when coming into physical contact with another person with her hands, Henko can interact with the capabilities and drawbacks of the person's Quirk. The limits of this are unknown, but she can only alter a few aspects of a Quirk at a time depending on what they are. Some of these components that she can augment are durability, range, strength, speed, as well as reduce the negative effects of using a Quirk.

Similarly to Kano Tashika, Henko has grown accustomed to learning extensive amounts about the Quirks that surround her, which becomes a challenge when she's so unsociable, so she tends to take notice of people's powers from the sidelines. With this knowledge, she can make note of what it is that she can, and/or should be altering. The effects of her ability wear off when she chooses to, after a long duration of time, or when the augmented Quirk-user goes beyond a certain vicinity with her. Additionally, she can only augment a few Quirks at a time.

### Super Moves

* **100%** (100パーセント *Hyaku Pāsento*): Henko unleashes the raw strength of somebody's Quirk, allowing them to access much higher powers than ever before with limited drawbacks. Very little else can be altered about the Quirk in this case, and it can only be used on one person. This is a dangerous super move as the destructive capabilities of somebody's power with no real limiters is hard to gauge, and could put her, bystanders, and the augmented Quirk-user in harm's way. For this reason, she tends to increase the power but not this vastly.

## Trivia

* Henko is much more nervous around boys than she is around girls, but it's hard to tell because she's nervous around everybody.
* Henko has taken notice Quirks around her for many years, and has come to the realisation that the Quirks in Class 1-A are particularly powerful. She ponders about this epiphany regularly, and finds it odd.
* Henko quite likes cats.
