Biography
Chizome Akaguro (Japanese: 赤あか黒ぐろ血ち染ぞめ, Hepburn: Akaguro Chizome?)
All Might's debut as a hero deeply inspired Chizome Akaguro in his childhood. Since then, Chizome idolized the superhero and aspired to become just like him. He attended a private Hero course high school to train to become a Hero. However, he began to despise the system after seeing the school and hero society’s "fundamental decay," as the alumni there were becoming Heroes for the fame, power, and fortune. The disillusion by the current generation of hero society incited him to drop out of the academy during the summer after his first year. After leaving the academy, Chizome became a street activist as a teenager and preached an ideology which he called the "Revival of Heroics" through street oratory speeches and soapbox speeches, but unfortunately his words, protests, wake up calls and cries for help were unheard and disregarded. Over the following decade, Chizome realized that words, peace and diplomacy were useless and only action and violence could create his ideal world and change Heroics for the better. Chizome trained in the discipline of martial arts through self-study in order to achieve his duty of "Revival of Heroics." During this decade, Chizome lost his parents, something the police would label a tragic accident. It is unknown what led to their deaths but it is believed that Chizome was not involved
Overview
Personality and attributes
In appearance, Chizome Akaguro was an intimidating, muscular man who walked with a distinct hunch and had a flat, somewhat triangular face without a nose, which he removed himself, and an extraordinarily long tongue tainted with numerous small papillae. He had long black hair, which he wears messily; it would drape over his face if not for his headband and mask. He had small red eyes (white in the manga) with tiny irises.
He later came to be known as Hero Killer: Stain (ヒーロー殺ごろしステイン Hīrō Goroshi Sutein?).
Stain was a cruel, unforgiving, and merciless man with a sense of duty to cleanse society of false heroes. He believed that those who become Heroes for fame or money are unworthy of being called the name and only All Might is a true hero. Due to his strong ideology, he took it upon himself to become the Hero Killer: Stain to stain his own hands with blood to purge fake heroes and change the current society.
Powers and abilities
Chizome Akaguro was among the various humans in the post-superhuman society that developed a Quirk (個こ性せい Kosei?, lit. "Individuality"). These were special abilities many came to develop where he gained a power called Bloodcurdle (凝ぎょう血けつ Gyōketsu?).
Stain was an extremely dangerous villain who had claimed more lives than any other since All Might's debut. Stain's aptitude allowed him to murder 17 known Pro Heroes and cripple 24 others to the point of being unable to recover fully. Stain displayed creativity and mastery over his fighting style. He was able to deal with both close and long-ranged opponents through misdirection, aggression, prediction, and use of the environment. His battle prowess allowed him to overwhelm his targets in armed combat and compensate for his Quirk's restrictive activation cost.
