APPEARANCE AND PERSONALITY
Appearance:
Keiko is a tall, physically fit, and an attractive woman sporting peach skin and a barely-there Japanese heritage. More of her English heritage shows than anything. Her hair is regularly messy; vibrant strands of gold that hang from her head at odd angles thanks to how regularly she wears a helmet. Frame, while quite athletic, has an odd petiteness to it that isn't immediately noticeable upon a first encounter. This youthful beauty takes great care of herself; keeping physically, nutritionally, and even mentally healthy. Despite her obsession with health; she has no issue getting dirty and will often be caught with something plastered to her face or on her clothing from one rough activity or another. That's not to say she is a filthy person, far from it, Keiko maintains excellent personal hygiene when she can and sprung for a large bath and sauna at her family home. It should be noted that she is very self-conscious about her figure (as a mother of two) and despite her physical excellence the smallest slight from a friend or colleague can leave her a little upset.

Personality:
If one could boil down the personality of the chivalrous hero into one word it would be just that 'chivalrous'. Since her very first days as a vigilante, Keiko dedicated her life to a code of ethics and a path of honor and duty. She has lived that way her entire life; relentlessly seeking a balance between "what must be done and what can be done". To many, an empty phrase, but to her the saying expresses everything about her beliefs as a Pro Hero. That there are some things that are absolutely expected of Pro Heroes, things they have to do and lines against another living person that one has to cross to get the job done. But even while those expectations are there, there are times where one can do what "could" be done instead, one should always strive for the high road, always try to do the right thing even if it begins to push against one's duty.
That said, when it comes to people who intentionally skirt or bend the rules for their own gain; they are among the chief offenders in the world in Keiko's book. Those who spurn the chance to bring a little bit of sense and order to society, who twist the rules to their profit, who bend and control others, she cannot stand their kind. They make her sick. And without reservation; the mighty Keiko has no issue with crushing these offenders under her mighty metal-plated heels.
That said; at home and in the classroom Keiko is a startlingly caring person who sets a high level of expectation for those around her. This can, at times, come across as 'tyrannical' or 'drill sergeant-like' though she humbly waves such accusations aside and explains that tough love is important. Watching a friend, student, or family member hurt is achingly painful for her and she has been known to physically throw herself in the path of danger for an ally; even if that might jeopardize the mission in the long term.

HISTORY
Fuuka Keiko was born to Fuuka Shinji and Edna Pryce in the United Kingdom in the year 2030; as a child she demonstrated a remarkable aptitude for learning and took great strides in her education early on. She was one of the first children to be born with the Quirker Gene. However, the manifestation was delayed; much like many people of the time, until around the same period just around 2041. Whispers were beginning to circulate about people with strange powers and abilities; Keiko, despite herself, kept a careful reign on the abilities that she was beginning to develop; desperately trying to hide them from her family and everyone else in her life.
Yet try as she might; one day she was confronted with a situation that bore no recourse. A friend was injured, terribly, and with one touch she began to heal them, restoring them. Only twelve years old and she was ostracised, chased as a heretic by religious neighbors and pursued by the government for testing. Her parents; remarkable people, took her away from the UK to her father's homeland of Japan where she went into a deep depression. It was on the streets, wandering from place to place in a delinquent phase that she had her first encounter with what would one day be called a villain. Acting on raw instinct Keiko threw herself into danger and saved another person's life.
That moment changed her. It felt...right to use her gifts for the greater good. She began to train, fight, and win. She practiced with her quirk day in and out, and her parents even saw an improvement in her mood, even though her grades still slipped on occasion. Little did they know that their little girl, now a woman, was the vigilante red knight, wearing a cobbled and repainted suit of armor taken from her father's collection and a repurposed katana. That was, until she encountered the villain Wight for the first time. The wicked man was nothing like her previous encounters, they were thugs by comparison. Wight was a real and genuine threat. They fought a savage battle that lead to Aquitaine being wounded and Wight barely escaping capture. Keiko was arrested for vigilantism and her parents posted bail, a lawyer who had been on the scene offered help, and not long after she was acquitted.
A close shave.
Despite what had happened. Her parents supported her. Her father threw every last yen he had into making the best gear he could for his daughter. Her mother encouraged her to take a letter from the books she read as a child; to set an example, to be a hero people could look up to. A hero. A real hero. Aquitaine took her battle back to the street as the Chivalrous Aquitaine. She took the streets of her neighborhood by storm, eventually allying herself with a few other vigilantes who benefited from the power of her quirk. They had several run-ins with the group lead by the Villain Wight and eventually had a final clash in 2056. A clash that would live on in infamy as the Sekigahara Scandal.
Three Villains from Wights organization had managed to dig up information on the families of over a dozen vigilantes by stalking them for months and threatening various legal organizations. They then went around murdering, all of them. Among those families were the mother and father of Aquitaine. Consumed by grief; Aquitaine marched into the middle of Wight's headquarters alone, clashing with the villain for two days before the two vanished in an environmental explosion. Little did anyone know that Aquitaine and Wight had both survived, trapped in the stone. It was there that she learned that Wight had not given the order to attack the families and deeply regretted what happened. His petty crimes and rivalry with her were one thing; but this? It chilled him.
The two remained trapped together for two weeks beneath the rubble; a gas tank making it impossible for a normal crew to remove it. Eventually, a quirked vigilante was asked to remove the damaged piece and the two were freed. Wight was immediately arrested and Aquitaine sent to the hospital. What followed sent the city into a tailspin. Every single villain that had worked for or with Wight was abruptly arrested, in their homes, in their places of business, wherever they were; they were found. His own crew were given life sentences for their actions. Yet Wight? The ringleader disappeared without a trace; never to be seen in public again. The outrage that such a prominent villain was given apparent leniency stoked riots in the city.
She was finally arrested for vigilantism in 2065 and forced into retirement.
Years later... Keiko and a man named Taka Minoru were wed and Keiko was given an offer she couldn't ever refuse. The government petitioned her to become one of the first Pro Heroes. Without a moment's hesitation she dawned the identity of Aquitaine once again and embraced her role as a hero. Over the course of her career she has overseen the training and scouting of several minor pro heroes and holds regular training sessions and law/regulation reviews with existing pros. Officially, she has never held a rank in the top 10 heroes abiding by the rule of "A knights duty is to fight, not flaunt." In the industry she is known as the "Enforcer Hero" though some have called her the "Government's Lapdog".
She would eventually have two children with her husband and begin teaching at UA Academy as the Combat and Drills Instructor in Year 3.

QUIRK INFORMATION
Quirk
Heraldry
Heraldry
Type: Emitter
Rank: B
Description: Keiko is able to project an aura around herself that rapidly stimulates the natural healing of the human body, energizing, rejuvenating, and even inspiring those nearby to fight harder, think clearer, and work harder. However; heraldry will only work on an individual that she has had direct skin-to-skin contact with within the past hour for up to 25 people (B Rank). Someone exposed to her quirk will bear a heraldry mark that appears to resemble a lions head on their chest until they leave her range, she loses consciousness, or the hour limit passes. As a side effect; Keiko ages dramatically slower than the average person giving her an incredibly youthful appearance.
Benefits
- While Keiko's quirk is active, she and those exposed to her aura benefit from the healing of severe injuries over the course of 4 turns.
- While Keiko's quirk is active, she and those exposed to her aura benefit from increased stamina and may function at full power for 6-7 posts until tiring.
- Keiko's quirk's range is approximately 50m.
Exhaustion and Weakness:
Keiko's quirk is not infallible; and accidentally touching an enemy can give them the benefits of the quirk if she is not careful. Once a person receives the heraldry, it cannot be removed until it expires. The quirk is incapable of penetrating lead or any material more than one foot thick.
