Alright, let's do a weird one.
Name: Mai Erskine
Age (Year): 15 (First Year, 1A)
Appearance: Mai's a girl of short stature with shaggy, dark ruby hair that extends just below her shoulders and gives the impression that she just got out of bed. Her amber eyes are wide yet sharp like a cat's, yet tinted with playfulness. One may notice an everpresent smirk on her small mouth. Considering her few years of notable martial arts experience, her build could be described as that of a miniature MMA fighter, though not yet as developed as it could be. At times she is mistaken for a cute boy.
Clothing: Most of the clothing she wears is either very loose or very tight depending on the occasion, but often both. She'll wear hoodies and athletic pants casually with compression shorts and shirt underneath, as only they can function with her quirk. During really important physical trials she'll take off the shirt too, only leaving her sports bra, and she'll wrap bandages around her wrist, angles, and chest. Otherwise, her UA uniform is designed to wrap around her body snuggly.
Hero Costume: No idea as of now, but it likely wouldn't be much of a costume. Maybe a onesuit with a special design of some sort, or maybe like the normal clothes she wears. Her quirk can't really work with a costume of many components.
Personality: I don't really enjoy adding personality to a CS, but generally Mai is a fairly dense girl who may or may not fall somewhere on the autistic spectrum. She's not very disciplined about doing things she doesn't like but driven to pursue what she does. She's quite social and is willing to talk with anyone about most topics. She's also easily entertained and easily distracted...and a diehard optimist.
Quirk (Type): Friction (Transformation)
Explanation: This quirk allows Mai to manipulate the coefficient of friction of her body on her surroundings. In simpler terms, she can alter her body to a particular range between "smooth and slippery" and "rough and rigid." Initially it was thought that this was a change in the texture of her surface cells or of what she touches, but it's actually a very thin "aura" that hugs and alters her body but potentially her clothing as well if its tight. In general, the quirk functions like a scale in two directions: increasing and decreasing coefficients of friction. At heightened friction she gains more traction and is coarse to the touch, while at lowered friction her body is softer and may be, for example, more difficult to grab depending on the magnitude. Mai is able to heighten friction in some areas while lowering it in others, though, akin to multitasking, it is at times difficult to regulate effectively and takes longer the greater the attempted spike or dip in coefficient.
Setback: Friction is straightforward in concept but very complicated in application, so she is not yet fully aware of all the strengths and weaknesses. This quirk's complexity could be seen as both. The quirk will evolve along with Mai's knowledge and skill of it, and what she might be able to do will depend on maximum magnitute, alteration speed, and overall control. (My point is that if I went over all the pros and cons this section would be really long. Besides. I want some of it to be intuitively figured out)
Extras: Parts of her body with friction coefficient below 1.00 (standard) will appear to leave a faint trail of fluid afterimages when moving, while areas of friction above 1.00 will throb and vibrate. The intensity of these effects depend on the magnitude.
Power: 2/5
Speed: 4/5
Technique: 4/5
Intelligence: 2/5
Cooperativeness: 5/5
Also I have not read the rest of the RP yet, so if my character is accepted I'll be catching up on that, and maybe a suggestion on where to begin would be appreciated since I'd be kinda late to the party.
