Hyaku Ryūkon

**Hyaku Ryūkon** (碧恵竜, *Ryūkon Hyaku*) is the teacher of Class 1-A. She is known by the local presses as the "Pride of Japan", a prestigious title which she tries to uphold despite her relatively low-standing. Especially when compared to the true #1 Pro-Hero, Rokujō Higashikata. She is the daughter to the legendary Pro-Hero, Murasaki Ryūkon, the Coral Dragon. She has been teaching at U.A High for the last several years, since her eldest brother took to the same profession. The two of them share a fierce rivalry that they've had since childhood, as one is always trying to outperform the other.

## Personality

Certainly, Hyaku is a kind of person that you would call confident. Confident in her abilities, confident in her thoughts; there is no hesitation on her part. In the same way she is extremely confident in herself, she also holds an unmatched sense of determination. These two things combined with each other make her an excellent, and willful hero. To add on top of this, she has a sense of compassion that allows her to feel for the people that are affected by villains, and also instills a sense of justice in her that believes all villains need to be held accountable for their actions in the court of law. However, this sense of compassion does not carry over for villains, no matter how sympathetic their case may be. She is unbelievably spiteful towards everyone, but in particular: Her eldest brother, Seishoku.

From her side of things, Hyaku does believe that she is in the right at most times. Especially when pitted against villains. It's this righteousness that gives her confidence. Although this can be crippling in sensitive situations if a villain could ever cast doubt into her mind, while also winning against her. Something she's gone through once, and never wants to again. Her determination is equally unmatched. Where most would falter and give up on a situation, Hyaku always perseveres. This may be a part of her spiteful nature, or just one side of the coin that both it and her determination exist upon. But she personally believes that she does this out of unclouded thoughts of justice.

These things alone would make her a decent hero, possibly even excellent with the skill she possesses. But it's her emotional sense of compassion, her empathy for the plight of everyday citizens and their fear for the chaos that villains seek to cause. This is what has turned her from just any hero, into a true Pro-Hero and has rightfully given her the title of the Pride of Japan. However, perhaps something holding her back from the truth of this title for her compassion, is her inability to ever understand a villain. She believes that when someone decides to do something villainous, it doesn't matter their intentions: They should pay for their crimes against society.

She is incredibly spiteful in every way that could be imagined from the word. She hates it when people do anything that upsets her, and will make sure to get back at them however she can. This can be seen the most with her approach on her eldest brother. Despite the abundant wealth she made of her career, she voluntarily made the choice to become a teacher which by all means is a lower-paying job and restricts her abilities as a Pro-Hero. Yet she did it, entirely because her brother was doing the same thing. And not only did she do this, but she managed to get a better job than him at the best school for teaching Pro-Heroes in the world.

### Likes

Hyaku is an incredibly big fan of beef, specifically bulgogi. She has a fascination for Korean foods in general, making restaurants, themed after such a country, her favorite kind of place to eat. She enjoys doing her job as a Pro-Hero, and bringing a smile to people's faces. For her, there is no better feeling. She has a pet doberman at home, which she cares for dearly due to her love for dogs.

### Dislikes

One thing that Hyaku absolutely hates, when it comes to food, is fruits. She's not a fan of anything that's naturally sweet, such as an orange or strawberry. The one thing she hates the most is feeling like she's in the wrong, something which can happen in the line of duty; especially when training new Pro-Heroes. She thrives for her connections between similarly-minded people, even as young as they may be in certain contexts, so it hurts her when those people close themselves off to her. She has an irrational fear towards baboons, she finds their strange appearance disconcerting.
