Biography
Toshinori Yagi (八木俊典 Yagi Toshinori?) was a blonde male inhabitant of the world following the emergence of Quirks. However, unlike others at this point, Toshinori was actually born Quirkless that meant he had no powers. This was until he encountered a Nana Shimura who was the 7th bearer of One for All who took Toshinori under her wing and passed the Quirk to him. She was eventually killed but passed her successors training to her old friend Gran Torino. Gran Torino then began to teach at U.A. for a year and served as Yagi's home room teacher as he helped him come to grips with One for All. Due to Yagi's strength, much of the training involved combat in order to help him develop into a hero whereupon he took the name All-Might (オールマイト Ōru Maito?).
Whilst in his civilian form, he went out for shopping when he witnessed a robbery by a villain made of sludge. He pursued the villain into a tunnel where the sludge creature had captured a young boy by the name of Izuku Midoriya. The villain had attempted to take over the child's body but All-Might saved him.
Overview
Personality and attributes
He came to be referred to by his title as the world's Symbol of Peace (平和の象徴 Heiwa no Shōchō?).
It was claimed that there was always a smile on his face even when things were bad.
When he was young, he told his mentor Nana Shimura that he wanted people to have a smile on their faces with the only way for that to happen was if they had a symbol of peace to look up to in life. As such, he was resolved in making himself that symbol to inspire the people of the world.
Powers and abilities
Through Shimura, he came to inherit his own Quirk that was known as One For All (ワン・フォー・オール Wan Fō Ōru?). This Quirk provided him great strength and physical abilities such as incredible endurance and durability as well as speed. He was able to hit with incredible force or jump across great distances with a single leap. Following a battle with All For One, Toshinori was badly wounded by the villain who left a great wound in his stomach. The effects of this injury meant that he was no longer able to maintain his form as All-Might permanently. In fact, he could only maintain his strong All-Might form for a short period of time. Otherwise, he reverted to his more scrawny civilian guise. Similar to his predecessor, he was able to pass the Quirk onto another person which required them to eat portions of his hair that was specially prepared for consumption. After this was done, then One For All had left his body with only the faint embers of it remaining in him which meant that it had a limited supply that was ultimately capable of being exhausted until it was completely gone from him.
His physical strength manifested in a variety of special attacks. One of these was Texas Smash (テキサススマッシュ Tekisasu Sumasshu?) that was a straight and powerful punch which was strong enough to create large amounts of wind pressure. It had the ability to level a city with this capable of being done with a single punch. Texas Smash was able to be used to send a powerful burst of wind that could scatter the body of a liquid based foe.
His Oklahoma Smash (オクラホマスマッシュ Okurahoma Sumasshu?) allowed him to whirl around whilst his enemies latched onto him whereby he span with enough force that it forced them to release him and sent them flying through concrete. All-Might's ultimate attack was the United States of Smash (ユナイテッド ステーテス オヴ スマッシュ Yunaiteddo Sutētesu Ovu Sumasshu?) whereby he used all his power to deliver an incredibly powerful punch that was strong enough to reverberate across the surrounding area. It was used to incapacitate only the most dangerous and most powerful of enemies.
