Full Name: Akiyama Shou
Nicknames: Well not at the moment. His name are quite simple and easy, so people normally don't see a point in giving him nicknames. But he desperately wants nicknames tho, thinking that it means you have close friends.
Gender: Male
Age: 15, Fifteen
Sexual Orientation: Bisexual
Quirk: Speed / Motion Manipulation. Shou have the quirk to change the speed/motion for an object or a person. Molecular acceleration or deceleration with other words. He can basically choose whatever speed he wants, between suuuperslowmotion or turbo speed. This quirk do have some limitations tho. He has to touch the person/object to be able to change it's speed. He can only use it on one person / object at a time. So when using the turbo speed on himself, he can't use his quirk on anything else. He can't perform molecular inhibition (freeze time), only slow it down or speed it up. When using this quirk on a larger object with much momentum, let's say a runaway train - it will use up all his energy. His skin will turn even paler and eventually he will faint / collapse. Sweet candy or sleep will normally help to regain his energy. When he want the speed to go back to normal, he simply snaps his fingers.
Birth date: February 1st, Aquarius.

{Clumsy, Challenging, Fearless, Childish, Teasing, Fiery }
The first traits one would notice in Shou are probably his lively, social and fiery personality. He is barefaced and a bit of a clown, not afraid to make a fool out of himself - or hiding his opinions and emotions. Shou is always playing with open cards. And he acts before thinking, the true "heroic" scenario where the feets starts moving of themselves. But i would say this is present all the time - his body moving on its on.. and mainly his mouth... He do talk way too much! Do anyone have the quirk to shut him up? He is brutally honest and sometimes i do think he speaks before thinking.. Shou loves talking to everybody (trying to lure people out of their shells) and making people laugh. He is just a very social boy and the fact that some people don't like him - will not hold him back. He will most likely interact with that person whether they like it or not.
He is very childish, teasing and impulsive. Too facinated by the possibilities to see the dangers. He is also quite fearless, arrogant and can do reckless things ( bad combination). And i would say he do rely too much on his quirk. "Chill out.. i got this under control.." *waits til the last possible moment before touching the person/object* - just because he can.. Very irresponsible and a bit of a show-off.
Another one of his custom personality traits are his clumsiness. Not that it affects others than himself. Often making him stumble on his own feets, dropping things, or hitting his chin / nose and ending up with nosebleed. If you do see him injured. It's more likely he caused it himself - than someone else actually hurting him. And now if one could search behind all these annoying / immature traits - Shou is actually very caring and protective. Despite giving the impression of being "dumb" and thoughtless - so is not the case. Shou is actually a deep guy, and surprisingly smart! He notice sadness in peoples eyes, false smiles and he can recognize a troubled look miles away. He is just a bit humble when it comes to his soft side - and often leaves that part to someone else.
Shou is very cheering and supportive tho. He hates seing people sad, and is probably the one to wipe those tears away - its just a reflex of his. Another handy trait is his talent in persuasion / to convince people, maybe its a result of him talking too much and the other person just wants to get an end to it. He do have rather charming, obvious, facial expressions. Shou speaks with his face and sounds. Always doing this funny faces when being surprised or confused and blurting out an "Eeehhhhh?!". He is just a "transparent" person with nothing to hide. Once again, playing the game with open cards...

Likes/Loves:
- Heights and speed
- Strong winds
- Candy and sweets
- Smiles and laughter
- Surprises
Dislikes/Hates:
- Academics
- People with no sense of humor
- Cats and dolls (scary...)
- Spicy food
- Coffee
Strengths:
Convincing. Shou could probably sell you a pair of ripped apart socks if he really wanted to.
Quick reflexes. Despite being all clumsy and dropping things. Shou has very quick reflexes - being able to catch things in mid air.
Good teamplayer. We can make it if we work together. Shou has no problem working with others at all.
Gymnastic. I would probably decribe his movements with the word "parkour" or some kind of stuntman.
Weaknesses:
Tired. Even if he is quite lively and fiery most of the time -
he do need more sleep than others.
Reckless. Shou is not bothered by doing dangerous stunts,
risking his own life.
Show-off. Sure, his quirk is quite amazing. But to show off is no way of a real hero. Or is it?
Can't lie. He is not able to lie. Even if he wants to. He just turns silence and twists and turns - trying not to blush and burst out in laughter.
Fun fact: Shou is probably the most ticklish person in the world! Especially on his ribs. He can't stand when someone is tickling him - almost getting panic. Between the laughters and gasping for air, he will most likely kick and hit and do anything in his powers to break free. Sure, go ahead and tickle him, but do it at your own risk!..

History:
Shou is the only son of Paralyzer (his father) being able to freeze people / objects in their movements, and a mother (no superhero) with a "monkey-quirk" and hands as feets. I do think Shou's taken after his dad the most, but there is no doubt about having a little bit of "monkey" inside him aswell. Shou was a late bloomer, but he was a happy kid. His father and mother spoiled him with love and emotions - making him strong in mind and stabile. But Shou was quite obsessed with goofing around. And when his motion manipulation started showing - he mainly used it to make people laugh. Like toutching the clock in their classroom, making it go faster so the teacher thought the class was over earlier. Or manipulating the speed of the ball during gym class. The pranks grew in numbers - and Shou was the class clown.
The whole thing resulted in kids starting to talk behind his back - about how he could not use his powers to do any "useful things" and how Shou was just a joke.
Ofc that got to him, but he was not angry or sad at his classmates... Instead he just turned determined and focus. He was going to prove them wrong. So what if they talked behind his back? Shou was just going to continue smiling (for once - being the mature one) and he was going to get accepted into U.A - no matter how hard he had to work for it. With his father as a coach he started to practise more advanced things with his quirk. And along the way - he experienced "the hero scenario" with his feets moving by themselves.
One day walking home from school, he witnessed a young mans car out of control - on his way towards a little girl crossing the road. Without even realizing it - Shou acted. He reached out to touch the car (slowing it down to super slowmotion) but broke his arm in the action. It was worth it tho. Looking at that little girl's grateful smile - knowing he had saved her life - was probably the best feeling in the word. That thankful smile was the most beautiful smile he'd ever seen, far better than being some sort of clown - he had been a hero! If just for a short moment - it had changed his point of view.
