Luzia's Progression

Luzia Gottschalk

QUIRK INFORMATION

Quirk
Neon

Type: Emitter
Rank: C
Description: Luzia has the ability to generate, expel (primarily through her pores), and manipulate the element neon in the form of an ionized plasma, though, its natural temperature is comparable to a warm mug than an ionized plasma, despite behaving like one otherwise. In effect, this gives Luzia a form of light manipulation, one with more force and mass than some other light quirks. Unlike normal neon, however, Luzia's neon is able to glow any color she wishes.

Utilizing this quirk, Luzia is able to expel neon in both gas and plasma form - often both - doing so with enough force to blast iron apart. Most often, this is done at extreme close range, utilizing bursts to exert the force necessary, though she is capable of expelling it within her personal space bubble, though this bubble exists only as centimeters around her. Battle applications continue into the ability to blind opponents, creating serious annoyance and even pain with bursts of light, or spreading the gaseous form of her neon to obscure vision, reducing the accuracy and effectiveness of the victims' site regardless by the length of about two cars. Additionally, she's capable of releasing it with enough force to propel herself; this isn't strong enough to give her flight, but it, combined with a lifetime of experience, gives her increased speed, allowing her to run far faster than normal with a simple application of her quirk.

She is able to release it more passively, though; while her battle neon will quickly dissipate into a gas and become defunct, she can be far more gentle, firing a much softer beam or even leaking it directly from her body to produce neon that can stick to surfaces, clothing, bodies, and even the air itself to, in effect, create graffiti. And, on a more minor note, it makes her body temperature slightly higher than normal, and provides her something of a resistance to the cold, though not to a degree significant enough to be useful in a fight.
Benefits
- Can damage up to and including semi-tough metals such as iron.
- Can blind others with light or obscure their vision with glowing mist, reducing their accuracy by the length of two cars.
- Can increase her speed by emission, her top speed hovering around 90 KMH, or around 56 mph.
- Can release it as both plasma and gas, or release more of one form over the other.
- Can stick neon to surfaces or hover it in the air for purposes of graffiti, way signs, and similar non-battle usages, lasting overnight or less in most conditions.

Exhaustion and Weakness: Like nearly all emitters, usage of her Quirk takes as much physical stamina as mental due to the fact that her body is actively releasing energy. Moreover, overuse of this quirk, due to the fact that is essentially plasma, can cause parts of her body that releases it too frequently without a break to overheat, causing pain. She has no more or less of storage or generation of her element than other emitters of her type, it is still a very real possibility that she can run out of neon, at opportune times or not, with fighting taking more of her stores than other applications. Additionally, since she has to store the energy in her body, her innards, including her blood, have a glow to them equal to a glow-in-the-dark sticker; while this glow is essentially invisible in any decent amount of like, it stands out enough in darkness to be noticeable, making tracking her by dripping blood a relatively easy task. The most obvious and strongest counter, however, is cold; while average cold, even the like of walk-in freezers, don't do too much, ice quirks work directly against her own, due to the fact that her quirk is a cold plasma, and stripping what little heat it has changes its properties enough to almost completely nullify Luzia's control over it and nullify enough of its energy to make her attacks much less effective.

- Her quirk requires physical stamina
- Overuse can heat her body, causing pain and eventually burns.
- Generates her neon, thus can run out.
- Her body fluids glow, making tracking her easier.
- Cold quirks provide a hard counter, working directly against it like water to fire.

COMBAT ABILITIES

Street-Fighting
Rank: F
Effect: Luzia knows a martial arts fighting style that is mostly unidentifiable, but incorporates elements from some martial arts, most of which she doesn't even know. It relies on instinct, adaptability, and freedom of movement, as well as a elements of anatomical knowledge in order to target weak spots, as well as practice with common weapons such as knives and crowbars. Luzia isn't tremendously practiced or skilled, but she is capable of holding her own in an average fight.

Parkour
Rank: F
Effect: A working knowledge of parkour and skillful use of her quirk allows Luzia superior agility, on par with a fitness professional. The mobility affords her to ignore many of the obstacles one runs into in cities, as well as making her a very agile fighter in combat. Moreover, her quirk enhances her parkour, helping to ease landings and even help redirect mid-move or mid-air. Use of her quirk, like with many things, leaves visible evidence though, which can be helpful in combat as a distraction, but detrimental in a chase, as it makes her easier to track while the neon persists.

Stamina
Rank: E
Effect: Years of running, rough living, and even a fair amount of fighting, Luzia has attained an impressive stamina. Even in moments and situations where she probably shouldn't be able to, she can push herself for longer than most, and, at the extreme, can go for 4 posts straight going full power.

Range
Rank: E
Effect: While at first, Luzia's quirk was only effective within a couple dozen centimeters around her person, practice, both absentminded and not, has increased Neon's effective range to the width of a garden pool, a maximum of 12 meters, or 39 feet.

LIFE SKILLS

Artistry
Rank: E
Effect: Luzia has a good talent for artistry, namely painting; her style focuses more on graffiti than traditional painting, and more often than not, takes the medium of her own quirk rather than paint, but even so, she is skilled in her own unique medium and in spray paint. The former even allows for '3D' paintings due to its nature. Her skill also applies to sketching, color theory, and other minor skills that ultimately lead to the final product. All aspects of it are entirely self-taught in her case, done almost entirely through trial and error alone, but even so, her skill in art reaches professional quality.
