Cleaning
CharacterCleaning is a non-canon, game-original Quirk carried by the villain Zookeeper. Her body secretes something close to dish soap, and brushing it across another person weakens or shuts down their Quirk. The same substance doubles as a cleanup tool, wiping crime scenes free of blood and prints.
Overview
Cleaning is an Emitter Quirk of close reach, used by the villain Zookeeper. It comes from game material rather than the manga or the anime, which places it among the series' non-canon powers.
Mechanics
Zookeeper produces a fluid resembling dish soap out of her own body. Applying it to a target, described as brushing or cleaning them, blunts that target's Quirk and can suppress it outright.
The secretion has a mundane use alongside the combat one. She scours away blood stains and fingerprints with it, erasing physical evidence from a scene.
Two named Ultimate Moves accompany the Quirk: All Cleaning and Cleaning Time.
