Shouto Todoroki

Shouto Todoroki (Todoroki Shōto?) is a student at Yuuei training to become a Pro Hero. He got into Yuuei through a scholarship because of his powerful Quirk. Shouto has short, bicolored hair; the right side is white, the left side is red. He has a burn over his left eye. He possesses heterochromia, causing his eyes to be different colors. In his hero costume, Shouto wears a simple white shirt, white pants, and white boots. He also has ice covering his left torso and arm. In his new hero costume, Shouto wears a black t-shirt and black pants.


Shouto has a cold, aloof personality which stems from his harsh upbringing. Shouto appears to be quite seasoned as he battled a group of villains in a calm and composed manner, which indicates that he can be calm and collected. Though brutal in battle, he is well grounded on the ethics of heroism, only wishing to subdue his frozen opponents as opposed to killing them through prolonging their frozen states. After the first semester of Yuuei ends, Shouto still has a distant attitude but is not above socializing. Shouto had a deep loathing for his fire power, as it symbolized his father's wickedness towards him and his mother as well as symbolized what he was born for; a tool to surpass All Might, a fate that Shouto detests.


Shouto thought that by constantly using his fire power, he would become what his father wanted him to be (to surpass All Might, which Shouto doesn't want to do) and that he would become no different than his father (a heartless and selfish person), thus Shouto decided never to use his fire power in combat and only rely on his ice power, going so far as to cover his left torso and arm with ice whenever he appeared in his hero costume to symbolize his rebellion against his father and his fate. During his battle with Izuku in the Sports Festival, Izuku's words triggered his mother's words to him that he forgot; Shouto realized that he is not a slave to his bloodline and that his fire power is his own power belonging to him, not a power belonging to his father, therefore Shouto for the first time used his fire power in combat, deciding to become the Hero he wants to be (not what his father desires him to be). After his battle with Izuku, Shouto has shown to have mixed feelings about using his fire power, indicating that he has stopped loathing and rejecting his fire power to a certain degree. Shouto and his mother reconciled their relationship and after doing so, Shouto has come to terms with using his fire power, no longer loathing his fire side.
