CHARACTER SUMMARY
The world wasn't fair and it wasn't going to do him any favors - so the only way to get out was to claw his way up with his own two hands, Quirk or no. Unlike many his age Satoru did not aspire to be a hero as he knew full well what he was capable of, and wasting his time on fruitless endeavors would only cost him in the long run. Instead he worked with what he had been given, graduating at the top of his class by an impressive margin and immediately applying to Tokyo University with the intent to major in criminal justice. Taking advantage of the scholarship granted by the university, the man would power through to earn a bachelor's degree by the time he was 21 before directly enrolling in a law enforcement academy for two years, during which his Quirk would finally be identified. Not that it mattered much - he'd already given up on that dream and intended on using his prior education to push for an immediate promotion to detective rather than a patrol officer right off the bat. While this made Satoru something of a glory hound in the eyes of some, he didn't care - all he wanted was a stable job and enough income to make his own way in life, preferably doing something he was good at and in a way that contributed to society. At least as much as someone in law enforcement could, anyways - between the legitimate licensed heroes and the rising numbers of vigilantes it seemed like all they really did was deal with small time criminals beneath the heroes' notice or clean up after their fights.
Oh, how wrong he was.
While it was true that heroes seemed to deal with the "big" problems it didn't make the work he'd been assigned as a homicide detective any cleaner or less ugly. While Satoru felt he'd already been given something of a glimpse into how unfair and uncaring the world at large was for the people living in it those childhood experiences were nothing compared to the things he'd witnessed in that line of work. Moreover, contrary to popular belief, Satoru was not a cold or uncaring machine just doing his job, and the things he was forced to see during those five years in the police force changed him a great deal. No, more than anything it made him angry that it was all he could do to catch the murderers after the fact - but down that way was a dangerous line of thought. There were rules in place and they existed for good reason, and only once did Satoru draw his weapon in self defense on a job gone horribly wrong - and had it not been for his Quirk the resulting shootout would have been a blood bath rather than disabling shots with only minor injuries to both him and his partner.
To say that the incident left the man with lingering doubts and questions regarding the public push to use Quirks as self defense tools would have been an understatement. Severely shaken by the ordeal, Satoru would resign from his position at the department, feeling both angry and inadequate by his near inability to deal with one well trained Quirk user and several gang members, a mistake and shortcoming that had nearly gotten good people killed. While he was loath to admit it, Satoru wanted to be stronger, more effective at his job - and the only way to do that was to follow a path he'd given up on years before.
At 28 years old, however, the traditional method via academy wouldn't fly. His mind was still sharp, though, and he had friends in the Association after so many years working as a detective. While unorthodox, Satoru was able to eventually reach an agreement to undertake something akin to a work study. Already a well educated man, the only things left to him were to complete the coursework specific to most hero courses and the matching exams - and with a Quirk already well honed by years of dangerous work Satoru managed to complete the typical four years' of study within the expected time with a focus on the academics and legalities of the profession, earning his license through on the job training before he was 32.
Unlike most other heroes in the same line of work, Satoru distinguished himself on a number of different counts - typically operating in nothing but plainclothes as he did while a detective, the man made it readily apparent that he did not care about rankings or popularity. For him it was all about the work of saving lives. With a fairly strong skillset out the gate the man quickly specialized in kidnapping and murder cases, fairly similar to his time while on the force but with the training and additional experience to often handle solo. Similarly, his Quirk made him incredibly effective in rescue operations where the location of individuals was only vaguely known - and while his combat skills relied almost entirely on firearms due to the nature of his Quirk it left him a force to be reckoned with at a distance. While it was never his intention, after only two years of an almost spotless record as a hero Satoru would eventually be approached by one of the better known academies in Japan looking for teachers. Despite it not being a path initially considered before, it only took a few hours of thought to settle on his answer.
Quirk AND SKILLS
QUIRK TYPE: Emitter
QUIRK DESCRIPTION: Difficult to quantify, Aimbot works about as one might expect. When given a projectile weapon - be it a thrown item or firearm - Satoru will instinctively be aware of how and where to aim to hit a given target he has focused on, even should there be no direct line of sight. Similarly, he will remain aware of that target's location all times within a set distance once he has been made aware of them and "marked" them as a target. On a lesser note, the Quirk will detect individuals within a set but much smaller radius and automatically make Satoru aware of their presence.
