MHA Story And Quirk Ideas

Quirk: Influenced Evolution

Izuku's quirk is Influenced Evolution. It's a Mutation type that allows Izuku's body to evolve based on the Quirks around him after an injury. The range is based upon who is closest, and what evolutions he already has. For instance, let's say Bakugo is closest, but the USJ Nomu is also in range. If Izuku already has some form of regen Evolution, it will prioritize the USJ Nomu' Shock Absorbtion rather than Bakugo's, because the Nomu's Shock Absorbtion is stronger than Bakugo's. Now, let's say Todoroki and Bakugo are both in range. Since Izuku's already gotten some form of Fire Resistance from Bakugo, the quirk will prioritize getting Todoroki's Cold Resistance first since it's an Evolution his body does not already have, and then go after the better Fire Resistance. Get it? If not, feel free to ask for clarification.

Let's say that Bakugo is around and Izuku gets hurt in some way. Izuku's quirk will latch on to the resistances Bakugo's Quirk allows him and begin to mold Izuku's body to mimic it. It works on quirks that allow for upped efficiency to a normal bodily function, like Super Regeneration or Super Hearing.

The biggest downside to this quirk is that he needs to be injured for the quirk to even activate, and it's one Evolution per injury no matter how severe or insignificant said injury is. Even a papercut would trigger it. That means to forcefully trigger an Evolution he needs to injure himself. Specific resistances are ignored as well, like how Eyeball Kid's elasticity is centered around his optic nerve. Izukus Quirk will ignore that and apply it to his entire body instead, with absolutely no exceptions.

Adding One For All supercharges any resistances he gets, making them twice as effective. Nothing else happens to Infuenced Evolution however.

This quirk is one of the few Mutant Quirks Erasure can erase.
