Biography
All For One (オール・フォー・ワン Ōru Fō Wan?) was a male human born in the modern age with it being known that he had a sickly younger brother with the two being present during the rise of Quirks in society. After getting Quirk, he had power to steal the Quirks from others and add them to his own or impart them to others. This was during a time when Quirks were still new in society with people unsure how to progress as a people. In this chaotic period of change, the figure came to operate and rallied many others under his banner where he took the name All For One which was named after his power. He stole Quirks from others and used his overwhelming abilities to spread his influence across the country. In time, manipulated people to serve his purposes and committed evil acts with little resistance leading to him becoming the leader of villains who ruled Japan in the blink of an eye. Around this time, his younger brother who had a strong sense of justice opposed All For One's actions. At one point, All For One decided to transfer a Quirk to his younger brother but unknown to the villain his sibling actually had a Quirk that allowed him to transfer abilities to others. The combination of the two Quirks led to the creation of a new one that became known as One For All (ワン・フォー・オール Wan Fō Ōru?) that was the polar opposite of All For One. The new Quirk was not strong enough at this point to battle its parent and thus the brother passed it on to a successor in the hopes that it would develop in time to stop All For One.
He was then transported to a special prison for criminals called Tartarus as he death penalty was deemed not enough for his crimes. He was kept under the highest security with life support provided for him but him completely isolated with no chance to use any Quirk.
Overview
Personality and attributes
After his injury, his facial features were destroyed leaving a mass of scar tissue with only his mouth being present. The damage done to his body necessitated the use of life support equipment to maintain his functions. When out in the field, he wore an expensive business suit and wore an elaborate dark coloured life support mask.
He stated that whilst All-Might hated him that he hated All-Might far more. Despite that, he admitted that in many ways he and All-Might were the same. However, whereas All-Might wanted to become the hero for justice, All For One wanted to be the world's greatest devil.
Powers and abilities
The basis for his name came from his Quirk which was All For One (オール・フォー・ワン Ōru Fō Wan?) that allowed him to steal the Quirk's of other people and add them to his own. In this way, he could store multiple Quirks giving him various abilities which he could also combine in different ways to increase their overall attack ability. As such, he could achieve various novel attacks and use them to perform devastating effects. After stealing a Quirk, it took him sometime in order to get used to it and understand the full weight of its powers. He could also grant these stolen Quirks to other people thus empowering them with new abilities.
Among the various Quirks he had stolen included:
- Warping (転送 Tensō?) : an ability to create portals that appeared as a black liquid that was similar to Kurogiri's Warp Gate though this one had many limitations in that it could only warp things to and from his location or to someone he had a close relationship. However, he could use it on a large scale to produce multiple portals to transport dozens of people in an instant or use it to transport an enemy in front of him to serve as a shield against an attack. It was said to be a newly acquired Quirk which he needed to use in order to learn the full range of its capabilities.
- Forcible Quirk Activation (個性強制発動 Kosei Kyōsei Hatsudō?) : when used, his fingers transformed into jagged far reaching spikes that moved to pierce a target where they caused an individuals Quirk's to activate against their will whether they were conscious or not. These appendages could also dig into the flesh of opponents and send them flying in different directions allowing him to use this Quirk for offensive purposes.
This combination of Quirks made All For One incredibly powerful to the point that he was able to match the strength of All-Might and was able to stop that hero with his bare hands.
