Appearance

Black hair sits messy above light gray eyes, on a man of unremarkable height and build.

His costume is a dark blue bodysuit with lighter panels over the forearms and hands, along the outside of the thighs, and in a narrow band beneath the chest. A belt circles his waist, a length of cloth hangs loose at his neck, and he wears headgear.

History

He sits in on the hero conference called over Overhaul and the Yakuza, then fights beside the rest of the assembled Heroes in the operation to bring down the Shie Hassaikai and recover Eri.

During the Paranormal Liberation War he is assigned to the team attacking Jaku General Hospital, and gets clear along with several other Heroes once Tomura Shigaraki wakes and turns Decay loose. He appears again during the Final War.

Hair-Raiser (毟毛, Mushirige) is his weapon. He rips clumps of hair off his own head, then lengthens and hardens them into sword-like shapes.
