User blog:Lover of the Muse/My Villain Rio Tachibana the Monkey Queen

Rio Tachibana is the biological mother of Hana Tachibana,  and a recurring antagonist of "My Hero Academia: Family Honor". Rio Tachibana has been imprisoned in Isengard Jail ever since she was defeated ten years ago by a team of heroes led by her arch-nemesis Overman (Osamu Ito). Despite being beaten, Rio did manage to mortally wound her antagonist. She eventually managed to build a new criminal empire that she is able to control from behind bars. Currently she is forced to act through proxies but her escape is inevitable.

Rio Tachibana loves her daughter but wants Hana to carry on the family legacy and become a supervillain. Rio wants to sabotage her daughter's dreams of heroism and return Hana to the dark side. Rio also wants revenge on the seven heroes who defeated her a decade ago, mostly by attacking their families.

Quirk Description:
Monkey-Form: is a mutant type quirk that grants Rio a variety of monkey-like abilities and physical features. These include prehensile feet, and tail, enhanced climbing, agility, enhanced balance and enhanced strength. Unlike her daughter's variation of this quirk however, Rio's tail isn't strong enough to support her body weight and can only lift and carry light objects.

Rio is faster than her daughter, at least on the ground, and has greater leaping and thus kicking power.

Personality:
Rio Tachibana is a criminal mastermind but she is also a mom. She has a strong sense of family pride and loyalty to blood, she was raised to be a villain by her mother Yuri and intends to enforce that tradition on her daughter.

Rio claims that "blood is thicker than water" and that loyalty and relationships within family are the most important and ought to be the strongest. Rio claims that the worst part of being in prison was seperated from her daugther and this is probably why she tries to murder the children of the heroes who defeated: Kenichi Ito, Dante Song, Akira Kurosawa, and Tsubaki Yamato.

Throughout the story Rio uses various methods to invade her daughter's privacy. These include hiring goons to follow Hana around, hackers to invade her phone and computer, even having a spy inside of the school. Rio's rationalizes that she's just trying to keep an eye on Hana to keep her safe.
