Crimson Riot (紅頬権斗, Kōkyō-Raioto^?) is a Pro Hero and the idol of Eijiro Kirishima, whose hero name, Red Riot, pays homage to the pro.

Appearance

Crimson Riot is a man with spiky, red hair and wears a mouth protection mask. He wears a red outfit with a long collar and a cape.

Personality

Crimson Riot seems to be a hero with a very strong will who believes that willpower is more important than one's Quirk, stating, "As long as you have a manly spirit, it doesn't matter what kind of Quirk you have."

Crimson Riot is haunted by an incident early in his career where his momentary hesitation lead to civilian deaths. As a result of this traumatic experience, Crimson Riot became more fearful of watching innocent people die than of dying himself. Ironically, heroics fueled by this fear gave him a reputation as a fearless hero who always charged headfirst into danger without hesitation.

Synopsis

Vs. Hero Killer Arc

When Class 1-A selects their hero names, Eijiro Kirishima chooses the name "Red Riot". Midnight notices the similarities between Eijiro and the Pro Hero, and Eijiro states that the name pays homage. Eijiro mentions that although he was old school, Crimson Riot was a man among heroes.

Quirk and Abilities

Crimson Riot's Quirk: Crimson Riot possesses a hardening Quirk, making his already horn-shaped hair seem even more horn-like. The hardening darkens the effected area.
