Disposition:

• Protective/helpful. In-series Izuku was granted his superpower from his idol, All Might, due to what All Might saw in him: the sort of person whose body moves before he even thinks about it to help others, a hero in nature if not in inherent ability. Izuku always tries to help others, even when they seem to be better equipped to handle things than he is. Even with Katsuki, whose relationship with Izuku is tenuous at best, Izuku will stop a fight and rush forward to help if he perceives the other boy as being in trouble. Even with enemies during an all and out battle, he was willing to catch someone he knew was only wearing Ochako's form because otherwise they would have been seriously hurt. Izuku is learning to become a hero who does more than rescues, but rescuing and helping other is always and forever his first impulse.

• Rash/self-sacrificing. The darker side of the protective hero trope is that Izuku 100% always puts literally anyone else before himself every single time. This has caused him countless broken bones, and his body has become more and more littered with scars as the series progresses. This is frequently noted in-canon to be his biggest character downfall: his self-sacrificial streak is a mile wide and has trouble not throwing himself into things. One of his biggest character development arcs emotionally has been coming to terms with needing to stop sacrificing himself needlessly, because that tendency makes him unable to save people after his body is broken to pieces. He's improving, yes, but it is still and probably will forever be a work in progress. If given a split second to choose between himself and someone else, the other person is always going to win, no matter how ill-advised that might be.

• Mild-mannered (mostly). While Izuku definitely has the hot-blooded battle tendencies (when it comes down to it) and always-have-to-help nosiness of other shounen heroes, he's sort of an awkward and mild-mannered dude in general. As a result of being socially outcast for most of his life due to not having a superpower in a world where having a superpower is the norm, Izuku spent most of his life being pretty timid and mild-mannered on the whole (although this covered a determination and well of stubbornness core of the earth deep). He's become more confident since being accepted into U.A., but Izuku is still genuinely a pretty nice guy who tries not to be a burden on other people, and who likes to nerd out about superpowers and other things. He's still a little awkward and has weird tendencies like frantic muttering as he analyzes things or takes notes, but he's much more comfortable with the thought of having actual real life friends these days. However, there are times Izuku gets more brash and a little ruder. Whenever he's trying to win, he tends to get a little more headstrong and less polite - it's because of who he associates with "victory", and he definitely gets more stubborn than ever when this happens.

• Determined/devoted. Beneath his genuinely kind and gentle exterior, though, there is a core of absolute iron. Even when he didn't have a quirk, Izuku was determined to become a hero - despite endless bullying and disbelief from others, and being told repeatedly that he wouldn't be able to do so. He's the Deku who never gives up these days, but that has actually always been the case for him. No matter what, Izuku always keeps going, frequently to the irritation and disbelief of others. Once Izuku digs his heels in, even if he sounds uncertain or timid in speech patterns, he absolutely refuses to budge on an issue. He's also very passionate. Any pursuit that Izuku starts in on is given his full attention and devotion. Once he's gifted his quirk, he starts the long and still continuing journey of mastering it, and he doesn't take the easy way out or take shortcuts, ever. He works beyond the hours of class late into the night, he's always seeking the next thing, he's always trying. Beyond that, Izuku tends to get very devoted to people/things - he's always starry-eyed over All Might, and he even admires his childhood bully for perceived strengths. He's kind of a moron.

• Intelligent. ...But he's actually a really smart person, despite being a blockhead about certain subjects. Izuku's booksmart, but he's also gained a lot of battle smarts thanks to those selfsame booksmarts. He's analytical, he's good at picking up new things, and he's always constantly trying to self-improve and learn. If there's anything that's truly terrifying about Izuku Midoriya beyond One For All, it's the speed at which he learns and retains new information and techniques.

Suitability: Izuku at least has no issues with making connections with other people - that is, sometimes his own shyness/awkwardness can get in the way, but he is very much a people person when he gets going and is always willing to help others out. While he's self-sacrificing to the extreme he isn't a loner and will happily work together with others. He is all about teamwork! Sign him up!

Condition upon arrival: Beat the hell up, like a shining star, so he'll need that immediate medical attention.

Abilities:

In-depth here. I'm trying to give a helpful brief overview, though!

ONE FOR ALL: 80% of the population on Izuku's version of Earth are born with a "quirk", a superpower. Izuku was in the 20% quirkless population, but he inherited a quirk from someone else at age 14. His "inherited" quirk, One For All was passed down to Izuku by All Might. It's a power stockpiling quirk that is able to be passed along (he theoretically could give it to anyone, but then they would have it and he would not - what's needed to pass it on is the desire to do so and some of his DNA) which essentially gives Izuku superstrength and greatly enhanced agility and mobility. All his "special moves" for the quirk (the usual superhero yell out your attack name bullshit) can be found in the in-depth link above.

BLACKWHIP: HOWEVER, One For All belonged to eight people before Izuku, and it turns out the quirk also includes the original quirks of all those people - in this case, that means he has two known extra quirks so far and at least four extra quirks he has to figure the heck out. The first known "extra" quirk is Blackwhip, a quirk that allows the user to produce black tendrils of energy from their body and use them to grab/capture things. It's a pretty simple but powerful quirk.

FLOAT: The second of the other extra Quirks Izuku has unlocked, Float is exactly what it says on the tin: he can float...it's not quite flying, but hey.

ANALYTICS/INTELLIGENCE: His main talent before actually acquiring a quirk was by far his intelligence and his ability to analyze other people's tactics and powers. Izuku still to this day incorporates things he absorbs like some tactical sponge from his rivals and friends and enemies alike, pulling everything in and giving it his own spin to make things his own. He's not the top student in his class but he is near the top and he is frequently noted as being one of the best at analyzation.

PAIN TOLERANCE: He breaks so many bones you guys. Willingly. Like a FOOL. He's trying to get better about, like, not doing that? But this kid has the tolerance and fortitude to just knowingly and willingly break his body if need be (even though he realizes by this canonpoint he should...not do that).
