Hero Name: Drachen (German for 'Dragon')
Age: 20 Skills: Analyzing fighting styles, combat tactics, European/Middle Eastern history
Role: Pro Sidekick (still not level-headed enough to be his own pro hero)
Flaws: Quick to anger, carries a loner streak, pathologically anti-social.
Likes: Hot foods, fighting, training himself in the art of wod.
Dislikes: 'False Heroes', obnoxious people, overly potent body products.
Quirk: Dragonborn (Can achieve a partial draconic transformation; for unknown reasons he cannot transform fully like Ryuko Tatsuma or his father). Does not possess means of flight.
NOTES* Bio: A native to Cologne (a romanization he despises because of its perfume association), he can trace his lineage to the Ubii people that once partook in the wars involving the Rhine. One of his eldest ancestors served as an officer in the Numerus Batavorum, and ancestors before him fought bravely in the events of the Batavian rebellions. Because of this heritage, he values overwhelming force and decisive, full-frontal attacks over all else. To do anything else is shameful, believing using surprise and trickery is that of a weakling's arsenal. He is not incapable of strategy; however, strength and the ability to hit hard are the reasons he was able to become the man he is now. He dislikes recognition from peers, believing it distracts and could lead to a conflated ego complex. A trait he has seen in many Hero candidates in Germany; and though he keeps it secret, he idolizes the renown-villain known as Stain for his ideology in being a Hero: To serve the common good without need of reward except in knowing the job was done. His body is that of a warrior, training himself as much as possible both in and out of his activated Quirk state to try and maximize results. Speed has never been a forte of his, so he focuses on developing pain tolerance and brute strength to toughen his body and mind.(edited)
Hates cologne, as he despises the fact that a foul-smelling body product is named after the city where his ancestors hailed from. His heightened sense of smell is also put off by said odor, and strong odors in general. Despite hearing the sneers about him wearing sunglasses to 'look cool', he wears them out of necessity. His Quirk, though incomplete when active, is also partially active when dormant and makes him highly photosensitive. Those who would see his eyes would note that they still have slit pupils and blood-red irises. His Quirk's transformation is incomplete to reasons that escape him; he knows part of it is training and youth, but is frustrated and takes great offense to being called a 'giant lizard'. He wears no hero outfit because he has yet to find one that can withstand the sharpness and rigidness of his scales during transformation; because of this, he wears a simple heavy loincloth under his pants to maintain as much modesty as possible. Plus he finds the concept of a 'costume' to be insulting to the meaning of a Hero. His left pinky finger is missing because he lost it in combat after it was severed from his hand; he did, however, unabashedly use it as a makeshift dagger since it was still a thicker reptile's talon at the time. Every time he transforms he loses his hair; it does grow back but he finds it annoying that he has to deal with scalp itch whenever he does use it. When registering as a prospective Hero, he didn't want to have a 'Hero Name', thinking it a coward's tactic to hide behind a false identity. However, he was forced to conceded if he wished to be officially registered, and came up with the Ancient Germanic word for Dragon as his moniker, and thus 'Drachen' was born.
Because of past behavioral and anger management issues, he was told to have therapy sessions with the school's counselor in order to break his anti-social tendencies and manage his easily provoked ire. Something he believes is utterly unnecessary, as he is 'not here to make friends'. His massive size and the fact that his Quirk is an incomplete dragon transformation is a sensitive issue for him, believing people see him as a freak of nature, even by Hero standards. One of his idols besides Stain is the No. 10 Pro Hero of Japan, Ryuko Tatsuma. Aside from her own ability to fully achieve a dragon transformation like his father could, he has seen first-hand that she keeps herself modest and humble, not wanting to gloat or hog the spotlight. In his mind she idealizes the balance between exposure and humility. His father, Anselm Bähr, could achieve full dragon transformations; because of this, Ansgar feels a shame towards his bloodline by being a 'half-able abomination'.
