Straightforward beyond belief, he is a hulking lion man who may or may not have trouble fitting through some doors. Despite his intimidating stature, which makes him look as though he's about to eat an entire room of people, there is a youthful charm to him.
PERSONALITY
LIKES StudentsWorking Out Fighting Cooking | DISLIKES Sitting StillCriminals Uptight People Yams |
| RUMOR/SECRET: | - The tale goes that he once shut down an entire restaurant by way of ordering everything on the menu and running the place out of food. - Gained his quirk by eating a lion doll. - Once told a villain, "Nothing personal kiddo." |
Stealth is far from a quality given to this lion. More often than not, one of the first instances of a person meeting this lion is either due to his massive size, or the sheer volume of his voice. The latter has been winning in frequency. An inside voice has not been something Benny has learned, or at least, not enough, his volume matching his cheerful and boisterous nature. Typical versions of the man's smile go from wide grin to carnivorous teeth displaying in full glory. Often Benny is the amicable sort, preferring to be friends with people rather than harboring a grudge.
Except villains. They are jerks.
Due to the lion's demeanor, he does tend to be overbearing and nosy in his endeavors. Often he is prone to wanting to know other people's issues, prying more and more, coming of as annoying and finding it difficult to figure out when to quit. Being stubborn proves to be a concept he establishes all too well. This may be due to having a durable quirk, as it is difficult for Benny to given up with ease. Day to day conversations, however, prove him to be rather soft at times, in truth meaning no harm and coming off more as a grown child than anything. Teasing and joking around are not beyond this man.
Retiring from hero duty for the most part only went so far, as this lion is still a bundle of energy. Pacing and twiddling his thumbs, even in something akin to a board meeting, are not uncommon habits. In a standard, classroom environment, this energy tends to show itself by attempts to have short, one on ones with his students, even if it turns out to be a nonsense conversation. Over time Benny grew into the habit of being protective of his students, and children in general, though once the Papa Lion comes out his mood often grows sour and confrontational to those he considers his cubs.
Beyond that he is just a grown child. No, this is not an exaggeration. His mental capacity is not the best, and it may or may not take him a moment to process things that happen at times. Wait, hold on, he just came back from getting a burger. >_>

BACKGROUND HISTORY
| PLACE OF BIRTH/HOMETOWN: | Crete, Greece |
| PARENTS: | Menelaos - Father Corrina - Mother |
| SIBLINGS: | - Two older brothers - One older sister - One younger brother |
| SIGNIFICANT OTHER: | None |
| OTHER: | - His students |
Befitting his Greek origins, he was born on the island of Crete, Greece, his parents having a few children besides him. In Benedictus's case, he was a middle child, actual number up for debate. Some claim third, while others plead the fifth. Regardless the family was not under any financial stress. Part of that is due to his mother, Corrina, who used to be a Pro Hero before she settled down to help raise a family. Having some level of fame helped. Though not human due to his father, Menelaos, a hero who holds a lion quirk as well, Benedictus came to terms with not being quite like others his age thanks to his mother's influence. A significant aspect of the boy's life, the extravagant tales of his mother's hero days began to drive him towards a sense of justice.
However, his father was a different story. Menelaos was a man who expected all of his children to rise to greatness in some field. For Benedictus, having a Quirk who held the potential to be a powerhouse, as a young boy he came under increased training regimes. The insistence on being a Pro Hero sparked his father to be harsh on the physical means, even to the point where he dropped to the floor, exhausted and remaining where he fell for a couple hours. Put into simple terms, Benny's father was not a gentle man. While he did enjoy sparring with his siblings, the house was quiet when Father came home, as at least one of them had to learn the hard lesson of the day.
When it came to academics, Benny was not the most well versed student. Average at best. He was often distracted by moments in the principal's office, having gotten through another predicament of the week. Seeing others bullied and hurt was not the sort of thing he kept any patience for, and justice had to be served if he ever wanted to go Pro. This lead to more than a harsh talking to, although Corrina made certain she was the one to know about most of these incidents. It became clear the relationship between Benny's parents was not the greatest, and the in school fighting made it worse, leading to the young lion interrupting conversations. Each time he ended up getting an extra 'lesson' from his father.
He remained reckless, but found a strange habit of empathy. Whether it was the notion of maturity as he grew, or the indomitable will of his mother, the idea of solving others' problems through talking became a reality. Not that the young, future hero was going to give up fighting. That was a behavior which will last far too long. Yet, Benny had never taken note of the victim. Saving a fellow peer from a bully was great and all, but that did nothing to stop the pain wrought upon an innocent.

THE ARMORY
- U.A. Staff Uniform (shirt probably unbuttoned)
- Cellphone, Wallet... adulting things
- Hero Outfit: His heroic outfit is not as grandiose as some other heroes might prefer. Wearing a mask which covers over his eyes, it is just a sash with eye holes, tied among his thick mane in the back, letting the ends fly in the wind. A pair of bracers are donned on his wrists, leather make with furs lining the ends. His pants are on the loose end, hugging the midsections of his lower legs, the lower ends tied by sashes. A hefty belt keeps his pants together, looking akin to a professional wrestling championship belt. Other than that he much prefers to go shirtless, keeping his feet bare. Tends to be rare in usage nowadays.
- King's Presence: This is a small device shaped like a simple chain, with a tiny box with a couple buttons on its side placed near the front of his throat. It is held tight against this area of the neck, but not so much that Benedikt is uncomfortable or cannot breathe. While it does have metallic parts, and is quite durable for its size, it is malleable and can form around his throat when it vibrates during his roar.
Whenever he uses his Mad Roar ability, King's Presence activates and sends out a heated pulse to massage and soothe his vocal cords. He can also press one of the buttons on the tiny box so he can let it run for about a minute. This allows him to control the force his roar has on his vocals, allowing him to use Mad Roar more often if need be. Although durable it does have to feel the impact of each ability use. If he is not careful, there is a chance too much pressure ringing through his throat may damage King's Presence.

QUIRK & SKILLS
WILD LION
TYPE: MUTANT
RANK/LEVEL: A
SUMMARY:
A good paragraph at least, don't be afraid to go into depth. The more powerful you're aiming for the more details are necessary. Keep it realistic to the forum environment (no death rays or meta-gaming powers). If the quirk is viewed as too powerful or open to god-modding, we may as you to change. Also keep in mind most combat/battle threads will last around 10 posts as benchmark. Skill durations etc should have this in mind. Having an ultra super powerful character is about as fun as a plain piece of toast.
WEAKNESSES/LIMITATIONS:
Every quirk has limitations and every person has weaknesses, be it natural (such as fire vs. ice), physical limitations (such as quirks that require physical contact or a fighter that is just close contact/long distance.), or even personality flaws. For say every two strengths there should be a weakness that balances him out. There should always be atleast ONE mortal weakness stated that will cause great damage to any character which is exploitable. Again, put any drawbacks caused by over reaching etc in POST COUNTS, along with how long they last in POST COUNTS/REST OF THREAD ETC. Weakness is what makes them human, its character-defining. Saying that a fire-user is vulnerable to just ice isn't gonna cut it, dig deep and play fair. Please read the quirk section of the Guidebook for more guidance on weaknesses.
