Spike
CharacterTomura Shigaraki gathered some seventy low-ranking criminals for the League of Villains raid on the Unforeseen Simulation Joint, and Spike is one of them, which places him among the lesser antagonists of that arc. Gold-yellow and spiked at the shoulders, he lasts only as long as it takes Dark Shadow to reach him.
Appearance
Bulk is the defining trait, carried on a large frame covered in gold-yellow skin. Two spikes jut from the back of each shoulder. His head resolves into a pair of inclined planes meeting at an apex down the middle, with a black crater sunk into the center of his forehead, and his eyes are red above a mouth set with fangs.
Abilities
No Quirk has ever been named or shown for him. He was brought in as part of a mass of low-ranking recruits rather than for anything he could personally do, and Dark Shadow removes him from the fight before he demonstrates a power of any kind.
He shares a name with Spike, the Quirk belonging to Soga Kugisaki, though the two are unconnected.
History
He joins the horde that storms the Unforeseen Simulation Joint under Tomura Shigaraki, and Kurogiri drops him into the Squall Zone. Working with a female villain, he goes after Koji Koda, and the attempt ends when Fumikage Tokoyami's Dark Shadow knocks him out. Once the authorities reach the scene he is arrested along with most of the others.
