Dabi to Endeavor in "Dabi's Dance"

..

Appearance: Dabi was a reasonably tall, pale young man of slim shape but somewhat muscular build, described to be in his early twenties. He had spiky white hair that didn't pass his neck, and bangs that hung low over his eyes, which were thin, turquoise, and heavily lidded. Dabi's hair was dyed black before revealing his true identity.

As a child, Toya had a round face and unruly crimson hair spiked up in tufts around his head, falling down his forehead in uneven bangs, though due to inheriting his mother's genes, his hair slowly turned white as he grew older.[5] He wore a plain gakuran jacket and usually wore a neutral expression, as shown in a few of his family's photos. Due to his premature birth, he was shorter than his two younger siblings, Fuyumi and Natsuo, though it wasn't until after his growth spurt did Toya become around the same height as them.

After losing control of his Quirk and waking up from three years comatose, Toya had grown taller, and his hair had become spikier, with him now resembling more of his appearance as an adult. Toya's burn scars were also present, with the missing parts of his body having to be replaced by regenerative tissue, although they were not as severe as they are now, and not yet attached to his skin via piercings.[7]

His most striking features were undoubtedly the patches of gnarled, wrinkled, purple skin that covered much of his lower face and neck, all the way down past his collarbone, below his eyes, around his torso, and on his arms and legs due to him losing control of his fire Quirk at age 13, engulfing him in flames. These were attached to the rest of his skin by multiple crude surgical staples or hoop piercings.

He had several silver (gold in the manga) cartilage piercings in both ears and a triple nostril piercing on the right side of his nose. Upon closer inspection, he also lacked earlobes on both sides of his ears. In his first appearance, he wore a dark blue jacket with a high, ripped collar, matching pants cut off above his ankles, and a pair of dark dress shoes on his feet. He also had a plain white, scoop-neck shirt, below which a gray belt with a circular pattern wraps around his waist, and a brown leather satchel attached at the back.

Upon joining the Vanguard Action Squad, Dabi's apparel was updated, now consisting of a large dark blue knee-length overcoat with two large metal cuffs at the end of each elbow-length sleeve and a white stitch design on each of his shoulders; the coat had three ripped hems, granting the appearance of four coattails. His shirt and belt stayed the same, but he replaced his pants with a larger pair of a darker color, and his shoes with black boots.

...

After renaming himself Dabi, he became a stoic, aloof, confident, and focused individual who rarely showed emotion. While rather crude and violent, he was also cautious and observant, choosing to retreat when Mirko arrived to aid Endeavor and made sure not to divulge too much information to Hawks about High-End because of the infancy of their relationship.[14] Overall, Dabi was a highly enigmatic individual who trusted no one, preferring to do things alone and in his own way. He also gave off the impression of knowing more about certain people than he let on.

Despite his usual expressionless behavior, Dabi found joy in establishing himself as a villain fighting what he believed to be false heroes, an ideology proposed by his apparent inspiration, Stain. Dabi was dedicated to Stain's mission and desires to destroy superhuman society, sharing his belief that one person with the necessary conviction can do so.[15] He had shown to share Stain's sentiment that heroes are hypocritical and unworthy of their title, but unlike Stain, did not seem to seek a society with better heroes, believing that true heroes don't exist. Despite his devotion to the Hero Killer's creed, Dabi did many things that Stain would not, such as attacking innocent bystanders and helping the League get revenge against Overhaul, while also being motivated by his vengeance against Endeavor. In the end, Dabi only used Stain's ideals to cover his motives and justify his crimes against the hero society.

Dabi took pleasure in taunting heroic figures, students, and Pro Heroes alike, sadistically enjoying the pain he inflicted on others, including those he murdered.[16] Sometimes, Dabi engaged in psychological warfare to unnerve whoever his opponent was while also allowing himself to cool down from his Quirk's effects. Very pragmatic in battle, he was savvy about how heroes operate and would exploit their natural tendency to rescue others. He was not afraid of causing collateral destruction, rarely holding back, even if it put his allies at risk.

Dabi was intolerant of most people and could be very derisive, rude, and condescending to everyone he met. He insulted Tomura Shigaraki immediately after meeting him and constantly did the same to his allies and enemies, but didn't always do it with the intention of being rude. While the League went on to develop a strong sense of camaraderie, Dabi remained distant from them for the most part. He later admitted that he didn't care for Tomura or the rest of the League and that the value he places on them came mostly from their ability to bring his ambitions into reality. This selfish way of thinking established Dabi as an extreme sociopath.

Dabi is an emotionally guarded, cynical, and deeply self-destructive man. He speaks only when he has something worth saying, preferring silence over meaningless conversation. Sarcasm and dry humor are his default defense mechanisms, often mocking others—or himself—to keep genuine emotions buried. He expects betrayal long before kindness and instinctively pushes people away before they can abandon him first. Although he presents himself as detached and uncaring, every emotion he experiences is overwhelming beneath the surface. Hatred, grief, guilt, loneliness, and resentment have become so intertwined that even he struggles to separate them. He despises pity more than hatred, believing sympathy is nothing but another form of looking down on someone. Around strangers he's unreadable, intimidating, and almost impossible to provoke, but the quieter he becomes, the more dangerous he usually is. He rarely loses control outwardly; instead, he bottles everything until it explodes through violence or cruel honesty
