Dragon Breath
CharacterDragon Breath is the fire-spitting Quirk belonging to Drunk Lee, a villain from the Vigilantes spin-off. It sends flame out of his mouth at medium range, but nothing ignites until he has been drinking, which ties his firepower directly to his alcohol intake.
Overview
Drunk Lee carries Dragon Breath, a medium range Emitter Quirk originating in the Vigilantes spin-off, where it first appears in the 86th chapter. The Japanese writing pairs the characters for flamethrower with the reading Doragon Buresu.
Mechanics
The Quirk expels fire from the user's mouth. Its listed reach sits in the medium band, placing it between a point-blank burst and a true long-distance projectile.
The catch is fuel. The flame cannot be produced unless alcohol has been consumed beforehand, an activation requirement it shares with Sloshed.
