Heroes (ヒーロー) are individuals who use their Quirks to protect civilians from villains, natural disasters, or any other kind of harm. Those who take heroism as a profession are referred to as Pro Heroes (プロヒーロー).

Overview
Heroes started appearing when the phenomenon occurred and the general populace acquired Quirks. Depending on their performance, heroes have the potential to receive government pay, along with fame and glory.

Hero Name
A Hero name is the name a hero chooses to identify themselves. While heroes in training may choose tentative names in high school, Pro Heroes often become known by the name they first pick.

Hero names are considered very important to a pro's career, as they are able to bring a person closer to the image they may want to cement, and are also able to reflect their true character. A person may also choose to use the same name or a very similar one to an already well-known hero that is no longer active, however, that comes with the responsibility and the pressure to uphold the name in every sense.

Hero Costume
Heroes often need specific battle wear that is needed to fight and use their Quirks more efficiently. At U.A., students are required send a report on their Quirk and body specs so that an affiliated company may take that information and make their ideal costumes. Students are also able to send in specific requests for their costumes, such as its shape or devices that can amplify their Quirk abilities or weaken its drawbacks.
