Physical Appearance:
The spiting image of her grandmother, Kako shows off long flowing hair, and sapphire blue eyes. With long lashes, and a small nose, she has remarkable clear skin and is quite cute. She is in great shape, showing off lean muscles, medium bust and a petite figure. Her physique matches that of a track runner, 5'3, and not too heavy or light at 120lbs with an average wingspan. She gets her distinct white hair color from her grandfather, and despite her hate for him, she loves her hair dearly.
Civilian Clothes: As most of her time is spent in school, the UA uniform is what she dons. She loves flowing dresses, and
Hero Outfit: A oversized hoody and the following below
Speed Suit- An all black skin tight suit, made for all types of environments. It helps Kako keep a consistent body tempature, as well as making so their isn't any unnecessary friction when running, swimming, fighting, etc. It's inspiration comes from the compressions olympic athletes wear under their jerseys. There are extremely thin metallic platelets that rest within the fabric without ruining aerodynamics.
Metal Platelets- With the support team she's developed magnetic plates to hit in the soles of her shoes, as well as in the knuckles of a pair of fingerless gloves. There are also a few dispersed around his speed suit.
Support Batteries - They may look like regular batteries you fit into a toy, but the amount of juice she can get out of these are amazing. They are a long red and black tube, with a plus and minus sign for the respective polarities.
Personality
Bad Habits:
While it serves an actual purpose for battle, Kako usually has a battery hanging from her mouth like a cigarette. It helps worth her quirk, but it's come to a point where it's a genuine oral fixation. If not a battery, she will quite literally suck her thumb without care of judgement.
Goal: Meeting and surpassing/defeating Thunderclap. She does not have clear direction, and teeters in her alignment because of it.
General Personality: Kako has seen some improvement as of late. In comparison to always being in her shell, she (while still struggling) tries a lot more in making new friends. In gaining some key figures in the likes of upperclassmen like Shinja and Tanzo, Kako tackles the world with a bit more confidence. She hasn't quite tamed her moody and flighty nature, but that just may be who she truly is. In recent events, the girl has discovered a deep passion for philanthropy. This comes at a price however, as she must try to focus on studies while her interest lies elsewhere.
Sitting in the back of her mind, keeping her father happy always resonates. The pressure is all the more real, because with her new friends she finds herself wanting to keep them happy as well. For the people she cares about she is willing to endure a lot, but the question lies... When will she choose what she truly wants? With issues circulating her grandfather, she still has much to resolve within the school. After her internship, she accepted a job within NJPD but has yet to make things official.
In growing up so much in such a short period of time, she still has a lot of growing to do. There is quite a lot on her shoulders.

History:
Within this world are inconveniences and things that just seem arbitrarily unfair. Born into a scenario where there is no winning or impressing anyone Kako grew up in a rather hostile environment. With her father retiring much of the bulk was to come from the minimark Sanae owned. There was always a sense of hate in the house hold. A daughter with the powers of a certain major hero, who never came to take responsibility for his family. She was a reminder of him, her lightning quirk, and it's properties... down to the white hair.... all of it. Oyama wasn't the best neighborhood either, so many days Kako would come home from getting bullied just to face the two menaces she called parents. Joji, her father was going to recommend her into local hero schools, so that she could live the dream he never got to fulfill, but that want came with a sharp disdain and extremely strict training.
He would do what he could, making Kako weave inbetween cones, jump throw hoops, slide under incredibly small crevices all to get her Flicker Speed on par with his Shutter Speed. While Flicker Speed was obviously the superior of the two quirks, he set physical cues and parameters that needed to be met; 80 lunges, 60 squats, 1 miles sprint, 10 miles jog, 20 rounds of cone weaving, and 30 laps at the local pool. If she couldn't reach her daily goals before 6pm, she'd be locked out of the house with no dinner. Into puberty came a new training method, to sit in a tub of water in the backyard and emit electricity as many times as possible despite that pain occured back onto herself. There were times where Kako had to sit in the baking sun, and times where she was surrounded in snow in this tub, but her father never relented. This cut throat method made for a speedy prodigy, but a traumatizing upbringing. With entering U.A, she only had one motive. to find the source of her pain and make him pay.
The pro-hero thunderclap, or well the teacher Thunderclap, her grandfather was the reason she was in this mess. All he had to do was own up to his family and take responsibility for his actions. Sure her grandmother giving birth, but that couldn't be helped. Life continued after, and the life given to her was hell. She jumped at the opportunity to live on U.A. campus, and was more than okay with being admitted into class !-B. All of this was just a safe haven for now. She needed to figure out what the next move was, if being a hero was truly worth it.
Quirk
Name: Flicker Speed (Brief Lightning Usage)
Quirk Type: Emitter
Power: This quirk is the result of a quirk marriage between her Father's Shutter Speed and the Quirk that skipped over her mother, Kagayaku's Static. With a flash of lightning, Kako can control electricity although only for a few seconds. She generally implements it's uses to amplify her speed, or to add shocking power to her striking. With a bit of innovation from the support class, she has learned ways to bypass her few second handicap by repetitively using it in short intervals and item usage.
Supermoves:
Friction Break - Sending magnetic force to the platelets in her shoes, Kako can glide along surfaces at great speeds. She must watch out, because if she uses this at too high speed she may crash. The idea is to stop and start quirk usage from one foot to the other, allowing her to glide endlessly without the worry of her intervals. With stop-and-go quirk usage, she can plant one foot down to sharply turn and change directions. With platelets on her body, she can use the same magnetic force to soften steep falls. With Max Battery, she can surge forward and apply a thunderous crash, tackling her foes.
Static- For only a few seconds, Kako can supercharge her skin to shock foes. It is a far cry from its Thunderclap predecessor. With max battery, she can apply thunder to amplify her strength a great deal.
Flicker- With a predetermined path in mind, Kako can fully coat herself in lightning and follow the path forking in different patterns on the way to her destination. Even with her support items, she cannot extend use quirk usage passed a few seconds, meaning she MUST stop in order to bolt to another location. It is effectively her signature move, and what she based her hero name off of. With max battery, she can crush and kick just about whatever she lands on with a loud thunderous boom.
Battery Cannon- Launching a support battery at a foe effectively allows Kako to shock foes from a distance. It explodes on hard surfaces, short circuits technology, and temporarily paralyzes people on contact. While all that is fine and dandy, the speed of the throw is supercharged by static, and can effectively cause a lot of pain off impact alone.
Max Battery: With support batteries, Kako is able to boost her electrical might, by applying a thundering shockwave to her electrical attacks(speedy moves especially).
-Plus: By taking on a polarity she can absorb electricity. This is the standard usage of Max Battery.
-Minus: By taking on a polarity Kako can dispense excess electricity to save herself from frying, and give her a bit more combat time.
-Circuit Break: With multiple batteries, Kako can enter a 4 post interval where she can freely use electricity. If she does not dump excess electricity she will enter a frying state.
Counter Shock: With inspiration from Shinja focusing her winds into minor blasts, Kako will focus a charge and create an electrical net between her fingers. By pinching and drawing electricity back like a bow or slingshot, she can launch minor lightning strikes from a fair distance. This charged bolt will shock enemies on contact, leaving them with paralysis and burns around where ever it lands.(Ex: Getting zapped on the arm would burn and paralyze the arm) It's effectively her most powerful move when paired with the thunder of a Max Battery as it will have more piercing power and deliver a more accurate shock.
Drawbacks:
-"Frying" after overuse, or use of Circuit Break, Kako is stuck in a drunk-like state for a while. She can use her quirk, but it's about as effective as a person driving drunk. She'll generally do more harm to herself than any villain in this state. It takes quite a while to get to this point, but support batteries tend to speed up the process, as great power comes great responsibilities.
-Intervals, she cannot use her quirk for more than a few seconds, which leads to her having to put a lot of thought behind each time she uses it. In fact, because she cannot send a big blast of electricity out she must compensate with quick thinking and solid prediction.
-Water is an interesting subject, as while she technically can spread her electricity more, it also shocks her back meaning fighting water quirk users is a double-edged sword.
Fighting Style:
In battle, Kako is polished and almost machinelike in her ruthless efforts to thwart opponents before they can even move. She is an active combatant who always thinking of her next move. With her dads training in mind, she makes sure that she is a hard target to hit, and that she can properly pace herself. She relies quite a bit on quirk usage to use electricity in intervals to punish her foes. She is good by herself, but also great in conjunction with others often letting herself be decoy while teammates swoop in and strike.
