Whoever thought a world of superpowers would be a cool world to live in should be shot and left to die on the road.
Heroes, Villains, and Civilians. These three are always caught up in each other's mess. The first two are not too bad, seeing as it's basically their job to be caught up in each other's mess. But the problem comes with the third one. Civilians.
Civilians are constantly caught up in skirmishes between Heroes and Villains. Best case scenario, they just get injured. Slightly worse but still better scenario, they get permanent injuries that hinder their whole life. But what generally happens goes more like this.
A hard working father/mother just got off of a hard day at work. They are excited to go back to their families, to see the smiling faces of their children. They have plans to surprise their spouse and children with a gift. So, they go to get a gift for them. When they get it and they go on their path back to their home, they get incinerated by the stray blasts from a fight between a villain and a hero. Their family only learns of their death far later, often a day or two later. The grief may lead the still living spouse to end themselves, leaving their children orphaned and scarred for the rest of their life.
Repeat this process several times throughout the day, and you have an average day in this shit world.
People who had no part in the conflicts getting killed left and right because two assholes flaunted their fancy superpowers around, without caring for the consequences.
I. Fucking. Hate. It.
My name is Chikyu Tsuchikawa. My last name is from my mother, Ryuko Tsuchikawa, more widely known as the Pro Hero Pixie Bob. Never met my father. My mom said he died before I could meet him. I only have a few pictures of what he was like.
My Quirk is the ability to manipulate earth, like my mother. However, my quirk's definition of earth is very unspecific. Pretty much anything related to rocks and metals count, and there's a good chance it can get more specific.
However, I have another parental connection. The planet itself.
When my Quirk manifested, I suddenly felt like there was someone in my mind. When I tried to focus on this "person", a soft voice had spoken to me, telling me they were Earth itself.
I immediately told them to prove they weren't speaking bullshit.
Staving off their surprise at the swear they heard from the mouth of a 5 year old, they began doing strange things with the environment around me. Manipulating rocks, plants, animals, the wind, stuff like that. All things people associate with Earth. It was enough to convince me,
So, I basically had two mothers, and one of them was literally the planet.
Growing up, I was extremely protective of nature above anything else. If someone damaged the environment in any way, I would damage them, so to speak.
With the planet itself talking to me and educating me pretty much 24/7, I matured and learned quicker than most others my age. Probably not in the way she or my biological mom wanted, because years later, according to the hushed whispers of brave weaklings and adults, I'm the textbook definition of a delinquent, with the only things not present being the crimes.
Because of my mannerisms, I have no friends. It's not something I care about anywhere near as much as my moms do. They always pester me, saying "You have to make friends", or "You'll be lonely without friends". To this day, I always ignore them and whatever they have to say whenever they go on that tangent.
I also dedicate almost all of my free time to bettering my physical prowess. Hand to hand combat, speed, strength, durability, flexibility, etcetera. Thanks to this, I'm very well built, both for my age and ages above it. I am 15.
(That's what he looks like)
That's the basic summary of things. Two moms, one of them is the planet, got a power to manipulate anything related to earth and metal, and I've got a "negative personality", according to the annoyances around me.
