Rika Takami

## **Appearance**

Rika has elbow-length ash blond curls that are messily swept around her face and striking turquoise eyes. She has unruly bangs, something that she inherited from Touya and Rei Todoroki. According to Keigo Takami, she bears a strong resemblance to her other father, Touya Todoroki. She has three silver cartilage piercings in her right ear. Due to her Quirk going haywire at certain points in her life, Rika has several burn scars along her arms and back. She has a round, youthful face, and she inherits Keigo's smile.

## **Personality**

Rika is a self-proclaimed realist and tries her very best to not look at the world through rose tinted glasses. However, she still manages to have a vivid imagination. One of her fathers, Keigo Takami, remarks about how she has her "head in the clouds." She has a hard time accepting when things are truly gone, and she is oftentimes constantly working towards her goals. She is oftentimes very snarky, and she responds to most things with sarcasm. Due to one of her fathers leaving her, she finds it very hard to trust others and oftentimes struggles with connecting to others. When she is fighting others, she exhibits her impulsivity and her tendency to rush into situations without thinking through a strategy.

## Quirk

Rika's Quirk is called "Hot Wings." She has fire wings that can come and go at her command. These flames also run up and down her arms. She can release blade-like shrapnel from her wings. However, these flames can damage the skin of her back and arms. The flame blades also cannot be controlled, and she racks up a serious amount of damage.

## Personal Life

Due to her being an unexpected pregnancy, her fathers did not want to reveal her existence to the Todoroki family. During the second month of pregnancy, Touya decided to leave Keigo on his own. Keigo decided to keep the baby since he felt connected to the baby. However, this connection diminished once Rika was born. Due to her close resemblance to Touya, Keigo is constantly reminded of the man that had ditched him. Despite the fact that he actively tries to bond with Rika, he still finds it incredibly difficult to interact with her and often grows frustrated with her antics. Keigo is shown to care for his daughter, though. This is exhibited through him constantly buying her new flame-resistant clothes and searching for methods to control her flames.

When she was three, Rika was outside playing when she had decided to climb a tree by herself. While she was climbing, one of the tree branches snapped, and she began to fall to the ground. Before she could crash against the ground, her Quirk manifested. The flame wings ended up burning down the tree and scarring Rika's back. Keigo, who was nearby, quickly rushed over to help his daughter and transport her to the hospital. From then on, he began to train her Quirk to ensure that she would not harm herself when she used it. Rika marveled at Keigo's abilities as a Pro Hero, and she made up her decision to follow the same career path when she was nine years old. From this point on, she began to ask him to train her. However, he did not want to do so since he is reminded of Enji Todoroki's treatment of his children.

When she was eleven, Rika was snooping through Keigo's closet and she found one of Touya's old jackets. Entranced with the fashion, she decided to put on the coat and showed it to her father. Keigo only reacted with apprehension and ordered her to put it back in the closet. Due to Rika constantly asking him about it, he finally snaps and yells at her. This is one of the only times that he had ever raised his voice at Rika, so this memory is very profound in her mind.
