Character Info
Character's Name: Kamijou Touma Character's Canon: To Aru Majutsu no Index Character's Age: Due to reality warping shenanigans, his real age is unknown. For all intents and purposes, he is physically and mentally sixteen. Canon Point: The end of NT Volume 22 Prologue after getting mostly obliterated by the Great Demon Coronzon. Background/History: So massive that it requires not one, but two links.
Strengths:
Altruism: At his very core, Touma is a kind, self-sacrificing individual who follows what he considers is righteous. This aspect of his nature remained true even when the entirety of his memories were destroyed. His heroic nature isn’t derived from any outside preconceived notions of morality. He freely assists any that require help whether they are a stranger or a former enemy simply because he wants and not because he feels like he needs to. To him “Enemy” is just a situational position thus feeling no need to bear a grudge. The titles of “Hero” and “Villain” have no meaning to him. He believes what matters most is the very act of reaching out to help others even against impossible odds.
The only thing that surpasses his desire to help is his tremendous determination. Once committed to a task he will see it through regardless of the obstacles before him. His heroic and benevolent nature has on multiple occasions inspired others. Most noticeable is Accelerator who tried to reformed himself after encountering Touma, even going as far mimicking his fighting style and regarding him as the ideal hero he wanted to become.
Humble: Regardless of all his accomplishments and unusual power, Touma considers himself to be nothing more than an ordinary high school student. He doesn't desire or expect any praise for his actions and feels no reason to view himself as this amazing hero that others see him as. He's satisfied so long as everyone is smiling and he can return to his (relatively) peaceful life.
Surprisingly Smart: Although he can come off as idiot most of the time and is generally ignorant of many subjects, Touma is far more intelligent than he appears. This is best demonstrated when he managed perfectly calculate the trajectory and velocity of a flying F-15 jet. In battle, he has an uncanny ability to analyze the weaknesses and limitations of his opponents’ abilities. Even when Imagine Breaker becomes useless for the current situation, he will not hesitate to use a more pragmatic approach to solve his problem.
Weaknesses:
Chasing An Illusion: After his memory loss, Touma considered his past self to be a separate entity and a source of inspiration. With only secondhand information about his heroic endeavor prior to losing his memories, he created an idealized version of what he once was. This is reinforced by his constant adventures and he quickly accepts that his dangerous life is normal.
Reckless: For the majority of the series, he proudly takes on the burden of saving people at the expense of himself believing that it was perfectly normal. Unless they were already involved in the incident he was currently trying to solve, he would readily reject their help in an effort to protect them. As the series progresses he begins to reluctantly start accepting outside help and allows them to shoulder some of his burden. However, his need to martyr himself still reminds. This behavior is used against during his struggle against Magic God Othinus in order to break him. With her power, she created a perfect world where everybody was happy and he was forgotten. She tells him that the happy world will cease to exist unless he commits suicide. If it wasn't for the intervention of the Will, he would have succeeded. Although she could have easily motivated him to keeping fighting Othinus by asking him to save her, she instead choose to convince him to save himself and try to return back to his original world. She teaches him that there is nothing wrong with fighting for himself. This hasn't stopped him from throwing himself in danger, but he has come to value his life more.
Easily Manipulated: His altruist nature makes it incredibly easy for others to advantage of him. It doesn't take much to get him to act. All that is required is to tell him that somebody is in need of help and he will gladly run off in whatever direction the person manipulating him tells him to go. Even when he's fully aware of the manipulation, he will still oblige if it means saving people.
Powers/Abilities:
Imagine Breaker
Touma was born with the mysterious and logic defying ability known as Imagine Breaker. This ability allows Touma to negate all supernatural powers which include the effects of magical, psychic, and divine powers with physical contact of his right hand. While he is technically an Esper, Imagine Breaker is not an Esper ability. His status as a "Level 0 Esper" is thanks to the fact that Imagine Breaker can't be detected nor properly measured.
Although only his right hand can actively negate supernatural powers, there are some exceptions. Anything supernatural that affects his body as a whole will be completely negated. This makes abilities such as teleportation ineffective on him.
Supernatural forces aren't the only things Imagine Breaker can affect. Humans with supernatural powers can be nullified upon physical contact with his right hand. Their powers will return the very second he releases them. Supernatural beings respond differently to Imagine Breaker depending on what they are and feel subconsciously afraid of him. Angels, for example, can be killed with Imagine Breaker. Supernatural constructs such as Golms when touched lose their power and subsequently fall apart.
Not everything can be immediately dispelled by Imagine Breaker. If the supernatural force is sufficiently massive enough, it will take extra time for it to be completely destroyed. Supernatural forces that can constantly regenerate are far more troublesome. The only way to permanently negate a regenerative supernatural force is to destroy its source. Touma can counteract his disadvantage against sufficiently massive and/or regenerative supernatural forces by disrupting it. During this state of disruption, he can physically interact with the supernatural force and safely redirect it elsewhere.
Touma possesses no direct control over Imagine Breaker. It is a passive ability that cannot be turned off no matter what. Because Imagine Breaker is indiscriminate on what it negates, it makes no distinction between beneficial and detrimental supernatural phenomenon. This makes receiving beneficial effects impossible. Imagine Breaker is the reason he is constantly plagued with misfortune since it even negates his own luck.
Most importantly, Imagine Breaker is completely useless against mundane threats. Touma is just as vulnerable as any other normal human being when threaten with mundane weapons such as firearms.
Invisible Thing
Imagine Breaker acts as a seal to an unknown entity or power. There is currently very little information about the true nature of the "Invisible Thing" or its capabilities. The entity has been shown to exceedingly powerful and capable of easily suppressing an attack that can obliterate a celestial body. This entity only manifests when his right arm is severed and sometimes appears in the form of a dragon. Touma can regrow or reattach his severed arm afterwards and consequently reseal the “Invisible Thing”.
*Note: This will not come into normal play due to its power, lack of information, and the condition required in order for it to appear.
Precognition / Premonition Perception
Touma can subconsciously predict supernatural attacks. This is a skill he gained from the countless battles he often found himself in. His Precognition gathers information from two sources; facial expressions and minuscule changes in the environment. This allows him to gauge the severity of an attack and move Imagine Breaker into the best position to minimize damage. The predictions are accurate enough to give him the insight needed to react to attacks before they are properly launched.
This skill does not allow him to see the future. It simply allows him to make accurate predictions about where a supernatural attack will land. It is not infallible and can be rendered ineffective by restricting the amount of information he receives. For example, something as simple as a helmet can easily prevent him from reading his opponent's face and make it far more difficult for him to response to their attacks.
Experienced Street Fighter
While he may not be the most skilled or elegant fighter, Touma is a very competent street fighter. He can hold his own against armed opponents and can easily dominate people are who unfamiliar with physical combat. Everything he knows about fighting was learned solely through experience. He has no actual formal training so he tends to have great difficulty fighting against individuals who specialize and excel in physical combat.
Other Noteworthy Traits:
Touma is a really good cook and a master at budgeting his money. It makes sense considering he has to feed the human equivalent of a black hole everyday.
He's also really good at housework.
Weapons & Other Special Inventory: A cell phone.
Color: His astrology sign is Aquarius so I figure blue would be fitting.
