APPEARANCE AND PERSONALITY
Appearance:
Yumi is a fairly curvy girl for her age and takes a nice bit of pride in that, but not overly so. She isn't the kind to rub it in someone's face intentionally at least, she just likes who she is. Her general attire consists of tank tops, baggy shorts, boots, and midrift hoodies. Her hero costume is skin tight and very minimalist, made of an insulating fabric. It also has bulkier gauntlets from her mid forearm down. It has gone through multiple forms and in it's current model as of writing this, is a skin tight top with fingerless tips and a mdrift. She has long legs to it that have light padding in the base of the 'socks' to act as shoes, and optional orange visor headpiece.
Lately Yumi does take more pride in her appearance on a professional level solely due to the fact she has recognized she acts as the face of her class, and while not perfect, will wear her uniform more professionally nowadays compared to the beginning of her year.
Since Joining she has also turned a 'fake' aspect of her toned body gained by her quirk to something harder and far more defined. While no body builder she has a far more athletic build than she used to, while still maintaining a healthy level of fat.
POSITIVE
✔ Confident, Helpful, Moralic, playful, Calm
NEGATIVE
✖ Cheeky, Self criticizing, Over-thinking, Loose, Un-Focused
LIKES
✔ Intimacy, contact, field-work, Strawberry milkshake, Ego boosts
DISLIKES
✖ Prudes, judgement, rough fabrics, Disloyalty, Senseless/Illogical hatred.
Personality:
While confident in herself and enjoying the odd ego-boost, Yumi isn't the kind to rub anything in someone elses face. In fact, she loves seeing other reach their potential, and while outwardly confident, she can be her own worst critic a lot of the time. In tense situations she can be locked into indecision by overthinking her options, but ultimately she'll always try and make the right call for others, even if its a tough call for her personally.
She's very open when it comes to relationships, seeing intimacy, closeness, from cuddling to things of a more sexual nature, as something people should be able to engage in without worry. She will often learn very quickly where a new friends boundaries are as she tends to find herself growing too comfortable too quickly.
Over the course of her time at UA Yumi has adopted some of the traits of her more competitive classmates, and while a contest is never the be all and end all of her existance, she can train much harder and show much more dedication than she ever had in her past. In the face of a challenge she will always push herself to do her best, and will never disrespect the hard work of her classmates with a half effort of her own. She still dosn't have ultimate confidence in the way she holds herself, but the events over her time at the school have left her a stronger person for it. Fully prepared to face what comes ahead of her, and accepting that sometimes she may faulter. No one is perfect. No one should strive to be perfect. They should strive to do their best, and to be comfortable witht he results, so long as they can look themselves in the mirror and smile, that's good enough for Yumi, from herself, or anyone around her.

HISTORY
Yumi comes from a family of elemental quirks, with her father having water-bending powers and her mother having the ability to specifically bend gold by shifting it into a liquid form. Unlike her parents however, Yumi herself is not a manipulator of her element, but a generator. As a young child, Yumi struggled with her parents as her quirk developed. Generating mild amounts of elecricity at that age was still difficult, as on more than one occasion, her parents almost dropped her when suddenly zapped by a manifestation of her power.
Of course she gained more control over her quirk as time went on, and by the time she was progressing through school she could turn her quirk on and off at will. Later on even developing a way to focus it to specific parts of her body. All the same, it was a difficult quirk to handle. The only thing she could seem to do with it was push people away, as, even at it's current level, all it could do was force people to jolt away from her.
Yumi was fairly sure that she wouldn't be one of those vigilantes when she grew up, and unless she learned how to charge anything with her power, she knew she wouldn't be of much use with it. Still, she was pretty pleased with who she was. She looked after herself, took care of her body, and, thanks to her power burning her food, she tended to stay in shape so long as she used it every now and then. Really, even if it wasn't exactly what she wanted, her quirk wasn't half bad in the end.
It was only when her quirk truly came in use that she realized, perhaps, it was a bit more useful, and more dagerous than she thought. Having been walking home from class one night at the age of 14, a shady individual had followed her home, catching her in a shortcut she took between two buildings. She didn't know what they wanted, whether just to mugg her or, somehow, more vile intentions, but as they came near her with threatening eyes, she activated her quirk, hoping to jolt them away, but instead activated it at a new level. Her skin shimmering a bright blue she didn't just force them to jolt away, but practically flung them off her feet. She powered down almost immediately, but suffice to say as the shady fellow lay there, she was less than certain what had just happened...or even if they were still breathing.
Luckily for her, he made it, and with some questioning from the police when they arrived at the scene she was let off, though it was advised to her parents that she get some more serious tests of her powers. In time Yumi learned she couldn't return to the lesser version of her power, and while she used to stop people touching her, now it was difficult for people to get near her as the currents jumped the distance between them. Of course, she could still turn it off, but it both excited and worried her that her quirk jumped to such a new level.
In time she'd join the new hero school, which provided her with the gauntlets that helped focus her power somewhat. While she isn't too sure her own power could be all that useful, she hopes to help other students discover their own talents, and either in normal studies or power pursuits, she hopes she can help her fellow classmates with a bit of tutoring if they need it.
