"Ability Origin"? Is that something along the lines of what you were going for with the kanji's meaning? I was thinking you'd use kanji along the lines of 世界操り (world manipulation), but oh well. If you're happy with what you've put, I'm not going to change it.

That kanji thing is not really a "tradition" so to speak - it's changing the pronunciation of the kanji without changing their meaning. For example, the kanji I provided for my Quirk are normally read jouhou dokusho and mean "information reading". Giving it the katakana in brackets (or in some cases, on top of the kanji) turns the pronunciation into "database", or d e-tabe-su.
