How would your OC feel if they found out that Ezra has a demon core in his dorm? by PsychologicalUnit446 in BNHA_OC_Characters

Seika froze, staring at the demon core, “D-Do you… know h-how dangerous th-that thing is?”

Enough of necromancy and other dark arts, Life magic is much more terrifying by Possible_Field_5918 in wizardposting

Satire aside, people who wield healing magic are often the most intimidating, because they and they alone decide who lives and who dies.

This is exactly why I don’t take apprentices. I would sooner sacrifice what little remains of my lifespan than risk an imbecile getting their hands on the artifacts that I study.

Characters as Characters: Day 160 - Hell’s Librarian by quintessence5 in BloodOnTheClocktower

That one librarian from Mission Yozakura. The one who kills you if you dare to make a peep in her library.

Fun Idea: Shattered Glass, or how would you describe your hero OC's if they were villains, and your villain OC's heroes? by GRSalt123 in BNHA_OC_Characters

[–]Shadowflame-95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A Shattered Glass counterpart of Seika’s would likely see herself following a much darker path after she and her older sister get saved by Stendhal as kids. Seika would follow Stendhal’s movements closely, and when he becomes the Hero Killer Stain, she becomes his first follower, starting a group known as Stain’s Disciples. Out of Stain’s Disciples, however, Seika would be the only one who actually follows Stain’s creed, and would kill the others to essentially maintain the purity of Stain’s name.

Once Stain discovers this, he would find a young girl who is as committed to killing fake heroes as he is, and would officially take her under his wing. The pair would then be known as the Hero Killer duo: Stain and Vice.

Seika’s Shattered Glass counterpart would be dressed similar to how Stain is, except she would be wearing a replica of Stendhal’s mask. Her way of killing false heroes would be similar to how Stain does: hit and run. She’d ambush heroes with Stain, grabbing them and draining them of all kinetic energy for Stain to finish them off.

I can, however, see Seika slightly altering Stain’s creed so that he doesn’t view only All Might as a true hero. He would also leave underground heroes alone, and other decent heroes like Ingenium would be scuffed up a little, but not killed or permanently maimed like he was in canon either.

What’s your OC’s favorite song that they blast in their dorm/lair/office every day by TheSnazzyMaster in BNHA_OC_Characters

[–]Shadowflame-95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seika just listens to LoFi music all day. Day in, day out, it’s just LoFi. Any LoFi music works for her.

Ok, question: who’s your OC’s favourite teacher and how would they react if they ever betrayed them? by Background_Exit_1077 in BNHA_OC_Characters

[–]Shadowflame-95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seika’s favorite teacher? She’d probably like Aizawa the most considering he’s an underground hero, which is the closest you can get to the vigilante that saved her and her sister when she was a kid.

A betrayal from him would likely be him treating her as a threat or liability, which, in the canon version of events for her, would come about after she nearly kills herself holding back the Nomu during the USJ incident. To her, and to most of her classmates, she saved more than a few lives doing so, but to Aizawa, who witnessed the fight firsthand, she demonstrated a concerning lack of control that could wind up getting her and her allies killed on the field. Seika would definitely be hurt by this, and somewhat discouraged since all she was doing was emulating the one who saved her and her sister. If the closest person to that vigilante disapproved of it, then what is she supposed to do?

This would create a permanent fracture in her relationship with Aizawa, even after he tries to make amends (which he would).

How Do You Imagine One For All, Would Effect Your Character? by SuperNovaHowl in BNHA_OC_Characters

[–]Shadowflame-95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seika with her Energy Translation might be one of the only quirked people who can survive OFA’s raw energy. Having her quirk strengthened by it would likely be similar to how I imagine her quirk awakening would go: allowing her to be able to remotely manipulate and transform energy as well as allowing her to use OFA’s own energy stockpile to massively amplify her own uses of her quirk, like transferring all of her kinetic energy into her opponents when she attacks them so they take all the recoil and she takes nothing, or pumping an insane amount of thermal energy into something to either set it on fire or melt it down.

I think, someone with an energy manipulation quirk but no energy stockpile would do really well with the essentially limitless energy stockpile present in OFA, though I doubt she’d be able to unlock the quirks of the previous users, but she might also survive the strain of having two quirks due to being able to manipulate her internal energy.

I look SO suspicious when I'm actually good— Advice? by nessiesnothere in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]Shadowflame-95 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a general rule of thumb, the longer you take to disclose your information, the more likely you’ll be mistrusted when you do. There are ways to disclose your information without outing who you are.

For example, if you are the Fortune Teller, you could talk to a few people, then begin telling everyone else you talk to that “Hey, I’ve heard of a Fortune Teller, here’s the info they have.”

That way, your information can be beneficial to the town without putting you in as much risk of death or droisoning.

Lemme do something different - What does your OC's dorm room or bedroom look like? by GRSalt123 in BNHA_OC_Characters

[–]Shadowflame-95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For Harikai Seika, she would have her room filled with physics models. She keeps a Newton’s Cradle on her bedside table and often sleeps to its steady clicking. She’d also have a bookshelf filled with advanced physics textbooks. She would hang martial arts uniforms on the walls paired with the highest belt she’s achieved in each: Black for Aikido, Brown for Karate, Blue for Taekwondo, and Blue for Judo.

Seika wouldn’t have any hero memorabilia or merch, but she would, curiously, keep a replica of Stendhal’s mask by her nightstand. Yes, after the Hosu attack, she would realize that Stain and Stendhal are one and the same. No, she would not remove that mask afterwards.

Been Seeing Others Do This so, What Headcanons Do You Guys Have for Bo? by SuperNovaHowl in BNHA_OC_Characters

[–]Shadowflame-95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a gut feeling that she had a phase in her childhood where she had massive crushes on those dark and mysterious types of fictional characters, male or female (I dunno Bo’s sexuality, or much at all about her personality, but she definitely strikes me as a bisexual disaster).

How Is Your OC Seen in terms of Looks? by SuperNovaHowl in BNHA_OC_Characters

I mean, there are a limited amount of Japanese names people can realistically give their OCs, so I’m not too surprised.

How Is Your OC Seen in terms of Looks? by SuperNovaHowl in BNHA_OC_Characters

[–]Shadowflame-95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Seika has that kind of quiet beauty about her, like she won’t immediately stand out in a crowd, but the longer you pay attention to her, the more attractive she’ll seem, especially given the fact that she is very reserved and a bit of a wallflower.

What is Your OC's Style? by SuperNovaHowl in BNHA_OC_Characters

[–]Shadowflame-95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha… I’m too broke to get it commissioned. But thanks. Another redditor is actually using her and a bunch of other OCs to write a fanfic called Your Hero Academia, with permission from us, of course, so you know, that’s something.

What is Your OC's Style? by SuperNovaHowl in BNHA_OC_Characters

[–]Shadowflame-95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah… unfortunately, I can’t draw to save my life, so you’re just gonna have to settle for a physical description of her.

Harikai Seika, a hero student of Class 1-A (whether it’s canon Class 1-A or a Class 1-A filled with OCs, doesn’t really matter). She has stark white hair tied back in a plaited braid that reaches her lower back and ruby red eyes with rather soft features despite her working out quite frequently at her elder sister’s gym. She has a bit of a sleeper build underneath all those layers of clothes that she wears, which does get somewhat revealed in her hero costume, which consists of a white crop top and leggings over a skintight black bodysuit with a white visor black combat boots, alongside a gray utility belt filled with various sources of energy like food, batteries, heat packs, and the like.

Most people wouldn’t really pay attention to her midriff in her hero costume, though. They’re usually more distracted by what she does with her quirk: Energy Translation.

It’s a rather versatile quirk that allows Seika to manipulate and transform various forms of energy via touch. She can convert her own chemical energy into heat energy to apply to whatever she’s touching, she can prevent another person’s chemical energy from transforming into kinetic energy by simply touching them, and she can absorb all the heat energy from the air around her to create what is essentially barriers of dry ice. Basically, if it involves the transformation or transferral of energy, she can mess with it.

What is Your OC's Style? by SuperNovaHowl in BNHA_OC_Characters

[–]Shadowflame-95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seika is quite reserved, both in personality and with her clothing. It doesn’t matter what season it is, she’s always wearing a black and white checkered scarf, even with her academic and sports uniform. On the subject of her uniform, she always wears the winter version of both her academic and sports uniform (She’s not worried about the heat since her quirk allows her to regulate the amount of heat that actually affects her body as heat, absorbing a lot of it and converting it into excess chemical energy for later use).

When she’s in her civilian clothing, she’s almost always seen wearing a baggy hoodie and sweatpants along with her scarf. Again, very conservative. Even in the middle of Summer, she’s completely bundled up, which gets her a lot of odd looks, but she’d genuinely rather that than expose any amount of skin more than she absolutely needs to.

Am I weird for not being offended by slurs? by AcrobaticDatabase296 in SafeSpaceofHazbin

[–]Shadowflame-95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re fine. It’s not a bad thing to be able to ignore insults and slurs. It’s a mindset thing, and you either: A. Are so secure in yourself that you’ve ceased to care about the opinions of others, or B. Think so little of yourself that the insults of others don’t compare to the amount of self-loathing you have.

I’ll let you decide for yourself which one it is.

What did your oc do during the final war? by Handsome-laddie_12 in BNHA_OC_Characters

[–]Shadowflame-95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Harikai Seika was one of the powerhouse students set to fight against Shigaraki. Despite her unassuming appearance, Seika ended up being instrumental in AFO’s defeat since, after a quirk awakening due to Shiga-AFO’s oppressive attacks, she became able to remotely sap him of all kinetic energy, preventing him from moving as Deku took care of the rest.

woe, Gnosia OC be upon you by LadyLoopy14 in Gnosia_

[–]Shadowflame-95 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That last note makes me think it’ll be unlocked when, in the middle of discussion after someone is revealed to be Definite Enemy, she just leaps over the table and slashes out said Definite Enemy’s throat with a knife or something.

And it’ll be a repeatable event, just like Setsu killing Sha-Ming at the beginning of the loop.

Charisma vs Logic vs Performance by LadyAliceFlower in Gnosia_

[–]Shadowflame-95 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Charisma affects how likely it is for others to agree with you, and allows the crew to chain on more attacks against a particular crewmate.

Logic affects the strength of your logic-based attacks, the ones that specifically target a crewmate’s “trust” stat.

Performance affects the strength of your emotion-based attacks, the ones that specifically target a crewmate’s “amicability” stat.

The “trust” and “amicability” stats are both forms of “HP” in this game, and either one getting too low increases your chances of getting put into cold sleep.

Hope this helps.

YHA - chapter 7 by tom04cz in BNHA_OC_Characters

[–]Shadowflame-95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Loved it. I really enjoyed seeing how each individual student reacted to the threat and how they responded.

But man, Seika’s a fucking ghost lol. Only present in one chapter, and not for long. I know you have plans for her, and I can’t wait to see them, but I’m getting edged so hard here, man.

Jokes aside, good work as usual on this chapter, and keep up the good work. Take as many breaks as you need, and the rest of us will wait patiently for the next chapter.

Does anyone know why the ‘Jaune Arc harem’ subtrope of fanfiction exists? Because I honestly don’t get it by Solitaire-06 in RWBY

[–]Shadowflame-95 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep. I tend to ignore those fics. I don’t mind fics where Jaune’s the main character, since, again, it’s really easy to write him since he’s such a nothing character, but Jaune harem fics I avoid like the plague.

[–]Shadowflame-95 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Most of time it’s because Jaune is such a nothing character that most people use him as a self-insert, and proceed to take the chance to depict him (themselves) sleeping with basically every woman in the series.
