Name(Keigo takami

Appearance(Keigo is a man of average height with a slim and narrow build. He has feathery, ash blond hair that is swept messily backward, with some of the front tufts sticking up in arcs above his head. His eyebrows are notably thick, having a similar texture as his hair, and he has faint stubble on his chin.

His eyes are golden-brown and rather triangular, with two small black triangles just below his tear ducts and in the top corners of his eyes, making them resemble those of a bird. His Quirk grants him a set of large, bright red feathered wings. Although the sizing of his wings is somewhat inconsistent, they are mostly shown to reach over his head when folded.

His hero costume resembles an aviator's uniform; he wears a black shirt with a wavy golden pattern, over which he has a modified tan jacket with a high collar and slits over his shoulders to accommodate his wings; the insides and cuffs of the sleeves are lined with white fur, and black gloves. He has a red square-shaped lobe piercing in each ear, although these are rarely visible as he usually wears a pair of yellow ear-protective headphones over them. A rounded, yellow-tinted (blue in the manga) visor protects his eyes, presumably from UV radiation above the clouds and dirt particles at high speeds.)

Personality(Keigo is shown to be highly intelligent, both emotionally and logistically. He promotes a carefree and jovial attitude, while his constant vigilance often hides under layers of serenity and equanimity. Keigo acts laid-back while being on constant alert, usually speaking his mind and coming off as quite rude at times.)

(BACKSTORY) Keigo Takami was born on the island of Kyushu, Fukuoka. He was conceived after his mother, Tomie, helped harbor his father after he committed a murder. The floor of what's assumed to be Keigo's childhood home was shown to be littered with garbage, broken shards and alcohol bottles, and Keigo himself was portrayed as an expressionless, quiet child.

Keigo experienced a traumatic and abusive childhood, being forced to stay home at all times in order to ensure he didn't rat his father out. At some point in the past, his mother decided to take him outside after he kept insisting and purchased an Endeavor doll for him. Because of this isolation from the world and no interactions with anyone else besides his parents, he grew up watching Heroes on television and believed they were only fictional characters.

One day, Keigo felt his feathers tingling and went into the city, suspecting something was happening in the city, but returned when he discovered it was nothing. Upon returning, his father yelled at him for leaving the house and suspected Keigo ratted him out, and despite saying he didn't, Keigo's father ordered him never to leave the house or interact with anyone. When Keigo went into a corner, his father kicked him, telling Keigo never to turn his back on him while muttering how he'd be free if his son had never been born. Keigo endured all of this abuse from his parents, suppressing his emotions and hoping to avoid becoming broken like they were.

Shortly afterwards, his father was caught and arrested by Endeavor. Upon learning this, Keigo was greatly shocked since he'd always believed that heroes were fictional, being even more impactful since the hero who'd arrested his father and saved him from the life of abuse was none other than the man whose plushie he carried. Keigo and his mother were forced to flee their home out of fear of being arrested for harboring a fugitive.

Since Tomie didn't have any proper skills to make a living, the two were forced to live on the streets. When Keigo told his mother they should go to the police, Tomie replied that he get them some money, however it took, asking why she had Keigo in the first place and what use his wings were.

This statement made Keigo angered and determined to be useful, so he went out and saved the lives of many people from a high-speed car accident. The public was shocked to discover the savior was a young child, and Keigo was approached by the Hero Public Safety Commission. After being informed of the situation by Keigo, the commission approached Tomie, offering both of them compensation and protection so long as they abandoned the "Takami" name.

After the incident, the Hero Public Safety Commission separated him from his mother and decided to train him as a hero. It was stated that the commission drilled interpersonal skills into him from a young age, so he could master the art of deception and infiltration. The commission forced him to abandon his real name and made him undergo years of hard training, which he accepted in order to be a hero like his idol, Endeavor.

Keigo soon started his own hero agency around the age of 18. By the second half of that same year, he managed to reach Japan's Top 10 Pro Hero rankings before the age of 20, making him the first to be in the Top 10 at a young age. Four years later, Keigo reached the No. 3 Pro Hero rank, only behind All Might and Endeavor, without even trying. Unlike many heroes, Keigo was never really interested in being the strongest or being like All Might; instead, he admired Endeavor.

During the rise of the League of Villains, Keigo took on Fumikage Tokoyami as an intern at his office. Keigo wanted to gain more information about the villain group, and so decided to pick Fumikage because he placed third at the U.A. Sports Festival and because they're both bird-like humanoids. However, during his internship, Keigo fought crime too fast for Fumikage to keep up with, and, when talking to him, only showed interest in information about the League.

After the attack in Kamino, Yokohama, the HPSC approached Keigo with the command that he had to become a double agent to infiltrate the League of Villains. Keigo had no choice but to accept the order.

Fumikage returned to Keigo's side for his Hero Work-Study. This time, Fumikage tried again to keep up with Keigo using new techniques, and, impressed, Keigo took his protégé for a flight over the city as a reward. He commended Fumikage for compensating for his weakness but advised him to improve on his strengths as well. Keigo believed that Fumikage had wings and didn't need to be confined to the ground. Keigo's "Be free like a bird" tutelage allowed Fumikage to develop his Black Fallen Angel Ultimate Move.
