Angel(Cure235)

Angel (天使, *Tenshi*?) this quirk used by Kamisha Tenko.

## Description

**Angel** (天使, Tenshi) is the name of Tenko's Quirk. An incredibly powerful quirk, it allows her to take on the attributes and properties of certain depictions of angels, with her power stemming from light. By absorbing light, she empowers herself, granting her the ability to produce beautiful, white angel wings (made from hardlight), as well as the ability to create light from nothing, and to manipulate created or pre-existing light. She can levitate and drift around without the use of her wings, but can only fly at high speeds with their ability to propel her forward. If she is not empowered by light, she cannot create light, only manipulate pre-existing light, or absorb it to empower herself; her ability to manipulate light is lessened if she is not empowered.

While in the presence of an infinite light source, Tenkp has seemingly limitless quirk power, as she can draw on the pre-existing light, and empower herself to an enormous degree. If empowered, her body gains access to super strength, which she can use to deliver devastating blows to her adversaries. If she is highly empowered, her body will being to glow, ordinary attacks will have little affect on her, and her body will even be able to resist being hit by bullets or being crushed by falling debris. The light she manipulates or creates can also be used in a variety of useful ways, mainly to light up the surrounding area, blind enemies, distract the eyes, conceal herself and others in overwhelming light, create hard-light constructs, and after her quirk awakening, can even be used to heal herself and others.

While in the presence of zero or limited light, Tenko's quirk is far less powerful, and in some cases, obsolete. Her ability to empower herself works like charging a battery, so even if she is shrouded in darkness, she can still use her abilities of her empowerment battery still has power. However, once she runs out of power, if she can't find a light source to recharge from, she will be completely unable to use her quirk. In other words, she'll be just as powerful and vulnerable as an average person. In fact, if her empowerment battery reaches near zero and she is shrouded in darkness, she will be physically weaker than the average person, and will struggle to even walk or stand. Additionally, it should be noted that while she can absorb light using any part of her body, if she cannot see any light, her body will not be able to absorb it to empower herself (the light she's absorbing doesn't need to come from the light source she's observing). Furthermore, overusing her quirk causes Tenko to become dizzy and unable to absorb light as reliably, although this usually only happens after expending an astronomical amount of light energy.

### Usage

* **Light Empowerment**: By absorbing light, Tenko empowers herself, gaining access to powerful abilities. She stores this light as if she herself were a battery. The more light she absorbs, the higher her empowerment, and thus, the more powerful she and her abilities become. When she becomes highly empowered, she begins to glow.
* **Light Manipulation**: Tenko can freely manipulate any light source, whether it be pre-existing, or created by her.
* **Light Creation**: After being empowered by light, Tenko can create light of her own equal to or less than the amount absorbed, consuming from her reservoir of empowerment light the amount of light she used for her ability. Assuming she is constant absorbing light (from the sun, for instance), there is theoretically no limit to the amount of light she can create.
* **Hardlight**: Tenko is able to create or manipulate light into forming solid structures which also happen to be incredibly durable. These structures can take the form of wings, weapons, walls, beams, pillars, buildings, bridges, chains, handcuffs, etc. Any solid thing can be created with hardlight.
* **Light Healing**: If empowered with light, Tenko will be able to heal herself and others by manipulating light. She can heal cuts, gashes, scrapes, bruises, and other wounds, but not broken bones, and she cannot regenerate the missing limbs or body parts of other people. However, if she is empowered, she can mend her own broken bones, and if she is highly empowered, she can regenerate her own limbs, and survive what would otherwise be fatal injuries.
* **Super Strength**: If empowered with light, Tenko will gain superhuman strength and be able to lift increasingly heavy objects with relative ease, as well as deliver devastating blows with her fists and other body parts. If highly empowered, the power and speed of which she can strike is increased.
* **Super Defense**: If empowered with light, Tenko will gain a resistance to most forms of ordinary damage. The more light she absorbs, the stronger her bodily defenses. If highly empowered, her body will be capable of deflecting bullets, and tanking attacks of enormous power. It should be noted that certain quirks can bypass this physical defense.
* **Angel Wing Generation**: If empowered with light, Tenko will gain the ability to produce hardlight angel wings from her back at-will.
* **Levitation**: If empowered with light, Tenko will gain the ability to levitate off the ground and fly around at a moderate speed. She doesn't require her angel wings in order to do this.
* **Flight**: If empowered with light, Angela can generate her angel wings and use them to fly in conjunction with her levitation ability. The wings allow her to propel herself through the air at fast speeds and perform advanced aerial maneuvers.
* **Color Manipulation**: By manipulating light, Tenko can alter the color of her light. For instance, her usual light is oftentimes a golden-yellow, but her hardlight angel wings are pure white.

### Weaknesses & Limitations

* **Constant Depletion**: Tenko emitted light abilities (flashes, hardlight, wings, healing, etc) require the constant channeling of light from an external source, or her light reserves. Therefore, if her light reserves run dry, things like her hardlight constructs will disappear.
* **Gap in Armor**: Tenko super armor can be bypassed or countered with certain quirks that ignore physical damage resistance.
* **Line of Sight**: If Tenko cannot see light, then she cannot absorb light. Therefore, if she is shrouded in darkness, or blindfolded, she must rely solely on her absorbed light reserves. Capturing Tenko is possible by depleting her light reserves, and blindfolding her, so she cannot make use of her powers.
* **Weakened State**: If her light reserves reach near zero and she is shrouded in darkness, she will be physically weaker than the average person, and will struggle to even walk or stand.
* **Quirk Overuse**: Overusing her quirk cause to experience mild dizziness, but more importantly, rendered her unable to absorb light as reliably. Essentially, her ability to absorb light is overheated and needs time to cool down. This typically only happens when she releases a massive quantity of light all at once, usually in situations where she must heal herself and regenerate limbs.
