Multiplier
CharacterMultiplier is one of the many powers sitting in All For One's collection, taken long ago from a victim whose identity is never revealed. The series never stops to explain it in detail, and what little is shown points to a body that can sprout extra limbs on demand.
Overview
Multiplier, written in Japanese as Zōshoku, belongs to All For One, who acquired it the way he acquires everything: by stripping it from someone else. That original owner is never named. The Quirk falls under the Transformation category and functions at close quarters. Its first manga appearance comes in Chapter 93, with the anime introducing it in Episode 49.
Mechanics
No formal explanation of this ability is given anywhere in the story. Judging strictly from what is depicted, the holder gains the capacity to sprout additional arms out of their own frame, adding limbs beyond the standard pair. Because the power is only glimpsed rather than described, its ceiling, cost, and precise limits all remain open questions.
Notable Users
All For One is the only named user, preceded by an unidentified former owner. The results closely echo Dupli-Arms, and they also call to mind the way Tomura Shigaraki's Quirk Singularity lets his body mutate and push out surplus appendages.
