Character Name: Shoto Todoroki Series: My Hero Academia Timeline: End of Season Two Canon Resource Links:Here
Personality: Prior to becoming friends with the members of the Deku Squad, Shoto is a very cold and aloof young man that is hell bent on doing everything he can to piss his father off. He doesn't want to make friends with anyone in his class, he doesn't care about having an open personality that others would be drawn to necessarily; he's just determined to prove that he can get through the three year hero course at U.A. without having to us the full extent of his abilities. He's well aware that he's the product of a Quirk marriage and basically his father's great creation to try and surpass All Might and he hates it. From a very young age he's been constantly training, kept away from his three older siblings with only his mother for social interactions and once she was out of the picture after a rather horrific incident Shoto shut down even more. It's as if he expects everyone to look at him the way that his father does and has preemptively prepared himself for that coming to U.A.
He comes off as extremely arrogant because of how confident he is with his abilities and doesn't hesitate to take charge in training situations, dishing out orders/suggestions on what to do in various situations since he's extremely good at analyzing and reacting. (Though not nearly to the same level that Izuku is.) While he's nowhere near as violent and cruel as Bakugo can be, Shoto definitely comes off as one of those guys you just want to give a wide berth to and avoid pissing off if you can because he'd probably end up icing you to a wall or something like that. He's also fiercely determined to succeed and won't settle for anything less than first place. (We find out later that he got second in the U.A. entrance exams and was extremely bitter about it which is what caused another student who had gotten in on recommendation not to go with U.A. in the end. Way to be, Shoto.)
Underneath this exterior of a hardass without any consideration for those around him (which is coincidentally a lot like how his father is despite Shoto's best efforts to not be like his father) is a young man that is struggling with himself. The incident with his mother when he was young and the subsequent loss of her in his life (she had a mental breakdown and little Shoto startled her and she ended up pouring hot water on his face because she thought he was his father for that brief instant and was then committed to a hospital by Shoto's father because she "Hurt his greatest creation") made Shoto put up a lot of walls and lock away a lot of memories to avoid feeling any further pain. He never blamed his mother for what happened, laying on the blame on his father since he was the one that made her snap, but he couldn't handle the burden of all of it on his own. He's been struggling for a long time to come to terms with what he's gone through and is going through and the easiest way for him to do that was to block a lot of it out. (Yay coping!...)
After his fight with Izuku in the sports festival, however, Shoto has changed for the better. He's accepted both sides of himself, Fire and Ice, and knows that he can't be the hero he wants to be without both halves. It's allowed him to accept what happened to himself more and show more of who he actually is to his classmates which is a kind hearted young man that does actually give a damn about the people around him. He's not only in tune with what's going on action wise around him but usually very in tune with the people around him as well and frets, in his own way, about those he considers his friends. (He doesn't hesitate to go to Izuku and Tenya's aid when they're being attacked by the hero killer Stain and even gives Tenya a pep talk during it.) He doesn't hesitate to start working alongside his peers more and more and starts to trust more in their abilities rather than assuming they can't stand with him on equal footing. (During his final exam with Yaoyorozu he initially takes charge and doesn't listen to her only to realize that she had a plan all along and that it was what they needed to do in order to win.)
Now that he's loosened up more it's become more obvious that Shoto really is just as normal a teen as the others in his class. (If you ignore the fact that they all have super powers.) While he's extremely book smart, always scoring high in exams and retaining knowledge really well, Shoto can be a little..lacking in the street smarts, sometimes missing obvious things or stating things that are just ridiculously outrageous. (Like when he comments that maybe he's cursed to hurt people's hands because both Izuku and Tenya get hand injuries during events that he's involved in. And he's extremely serious about it.) He starts to spend time with his classmates more, especially the Deku Squad, and, outside of school, he goes to visit his mother regularly in the hospital which starts the healing process there for both of them. He's much more at peace now with everything that's happened to him, prepared to continue on his path to become a hero...just with the friends and family he chooses at his side this time.
