[I haven't actually watched the show yet but this seems so interesting and I just couldn't help myself.]

Quirk Name: Savage

Type: Mutant

Description: This quirk makes the user's body severely overreact to adrenaline. This causes the bloodflow to the muscles, output of the heart, pupil dilation and blood sugar to increase to well beyond a regular human's capabilities. Adrenaline flow also triggers the acceleration of numerous other bodily procedures, including muscle growth, cell division, testosterone production, keratin production, enamel production and overall length increase, among others, becoming more potent the more adrenaline is produced. This gives an immense boost to the user's strength, speed, durability, regeneration, agility and senses.

The increase in bodily substance production causes the user to take on an appearance similar to an ape-like beast. They will grow long hair on their head, face, chest, arms, croth and shins, as well as grow immensely durable, long and sharp nails and teeth. They will also become extremely tall and muscular, towering over normal humans when enough adrenaline is produced. This transformation is one of the things this quirk is named after.

The user's body is also naturally more adapt at surviving the sudden increase in performance without dying on the spot.

Weaknesses: The sheer increase in hormones in the user's body and high stress causes immense behavioural changes, with the user becoming increasingly unfocused, imprecise and competitive as they become stronger. They also grow notably less intelligent, becoming savage and animalistic in nature. This behavioural change is also responsible for the quirk's name.

As the quirk merely accelerates bodily functions rather than truly transforming its user, they gain strength rather gradually, and might need preparation time to power up for battle. As such, the best way to counter the user's quirk is to stay in hiding once they gain too much momentum and wait for the user's body's fight-or-flight reaction to die down before engaging again.

[I've been thinking of Manhunt for a hero name, due to the pun on the user becoming a "hunter animal," and the word itself meaning "a search for a criminal."]
