Age: 17

Crime: Bullying and assault; Katsuki has spent most of his life bullying his childhood friend Izuku Midoriya to a very serious degree, even telling him to jump off the school building in case he gets a quirk in the next lifetime. He's bullied Izuku emotionally, mentally, and physically since they were around 4 years old, calling him names, talking down to him, trying to make him feel worthless, and even beating him up on many occasions. This is something that he's made an effort to correct going forward, and has apologized for, but is still the worst sin he's committed and the thing he's most guilty about.

Note: Izuku is not the only person he bullied, but he is by far the victim of the most egregious bullying.

Background: Katsuki Bakugo Synopsis @ MHA Wiki

Personality:

★ Aggressive: The thing that stands out the most about Katsuki is that he's a very aggressive person. Loud and a obnoxious, he doesn't hesitate to talk down to others, call them extras or other names, or throw the first punch. Quick to confrontation and often escalating things to a physical fight, he struggles to express his emotions in any way that isn't violence. Even when acting as a hero, he struggles with the "soft" parts of the job like reassuring or comforting survivors and bystanders. Most of his aggression is communicated verbally - Katsuki rarely just talks, usually preferring to yell most things he says, and like an animal, he lashes out when wounded.

★ Confident: Katsuki has spent his life being told how awesome he is - whether it was by his own parents, by fellow kids at school, or by teachers, he's always been told he's above average. This is something that Katsuki really took to heart, and he has no doubts about his own value, often crowing that he's going to win, be the best, be number one, and that he'll always succeed simply because of who he is and the power of his Quirk. He has insane confidence in himself to the point of cockiness, though he's always the first to beat himself up if he doesn't succeed at doing exactly what he wants to do in every situation, winning every fight he's involved in, or being the best hero that he can be.

★ Abrasive: Katsuki is completely lacking in social skills, as a side effect of the same situations that caused his excessive confidence. He doesn't make any effort to spare the feelings of those around him, speaks his mind bluntly and without any kind of tact, and calls people names on the regular. When he was younger, he was a bully to neighbourhood kids, including Izuku, a boy he's known practically since he was born. It's only very recently that he's started to grow out of this bullying pattern of behaviour, though he still has a hard time expressing feelings in ways that are not aggressive or violent.

★ Driven: Katsuki can't stand to lose, or even to win because the other party wasn't trying hard enough - he's driven by a powerful ambition, by his sheer desire to be the number one hero, to be the most powerful hero out there. Fueled by his admiration for All Might, the top hero in Japan, he expects nothing less than pure excellence from himself. Katsuki has high standards for the people around him, but even higher ones for himself. Even when he wins the Sports Festival, a very admirable thing, he has to be physically restrained because he's so angry that he feels he won versus someone who just wasn't trying their best.

★ Impulsive: It's very rare for Katsuki to stop to think very hard before he throws himself into dangerous situations or speaks his mind. While he's a tactical genius in the field in many ways, he doesn't highly value plans and coordination with others when it comes to doing his hero work or his hero training at school. If he doesn't like the person he's paired with, he won't bother to even put a plan in place despite it being the best course of action to do so. His body often moves before his brain can even think about what it's doing, which usually involves throwing himself into danger to protect others or win a fight he's passionate about.

Abilities: Katsuki Bakugo Abilities @ MHA Wiki

★ Quirk: Explosion: Katsuki produces a nitroglycerin-like sweat from the palms of his hands, which allows him to detonate large explosions on command. The more his palms sweat, the more powerful his explosions are. While this is obviously a big asset offensively, he has learned to use it in various adaptable ways, including propelling himself by blasting behind himself, using his explosions as a sort of shield, and maneuvering quickly by blasting opposite of the direction he wants to go. Katsuki's quirk is one of the most powerful in the anime, allowing him to go toe-to-toe with some of the most dangerous villains in canon.

★ Enhanced Speed, Strength, Reflexes, Durability: While technically, beyond his quirk, Katsuki is a normal human, he has undergone an incredible amount of training and developed heightened speed, strength, reflexes, and durability to the maximum amount available to a teen his age and build.

★ Various Skills: Katsuki has picked up a few skills in his time, the most prominent being that he's very good at cooking and picking up new recipes, he is able to play the drums in a band (having had previous lessons), and has the technical skills of someone his age who's grown up with computers. Additionally, he has a keen intellect, being third in his class for midterms, and has a lot of experience and natural inclination to tactics in battle.
