Xillions, as the name would imply, is a meta ability that allows Shu to create, manipulate, and transform into a near infinite amount of micro bio-organic adamantine substance that greatly resembles black sand. These black granules operate as an extension of Shu's own body, responding to his every whim—at times, even reacting on instinct. The level to which Shu can control the black sand is essentially on a molecular level, allowing him to manipulate its density and appearance with a single thought. In short, the capabilities of this quirk are only limited by his own imagination.

When transforming his body into the black sand, Shu likes to refer to this state as Satetsujin, or "Black Sand God." He can transform a single digit or his entire body, and in doing so gains all of the properties of the black san. Since he is physically becoming the black this means that Shu becomes capable of manipulating his body in the same way he would normally control the quirk—essentially becoming a living construct. While in this state, his consciousness exists in a hive mind state between the granules allowing him to experience the world in somewhat omnipresent scope.

Shu's most common form of manipulation is done in the following ways:

• Constructs: Using the black sand, he molds it into various shapes that can be used offensively, defensively, or supplementary.

• Tanukitsuki: Otherwise known as "Tanuki Possession," Shu will transform his body into the black sand and alter his appearance to resemble other people, creatures, or things.

In terms of drawbacks, Xillions has its fair share. For one, the quirk is heavily reliant on Shu's mental and emotional capacity. Altering his state of mind by any means could effectively render the quirk inert, or at the bare minimum dull his ability to control it. This is especially true when in his Satetsujin state. If he isn't careful he could potentially lose all sense of himself and be stuck in a sort of limbo state.

Additionally, while the granules are bio-organic, they are still ferrous in nature. As such, they can be susceptible to high powered magnets unless they've been heated up to certain degrees.

On the subject of heat, the granules are potent conductors of heat and electricity. Too well, in fact. When granules reach high enough temperatures they begin to break down structurally and burn up completely.

Tanukitsuki also has its flaws. For one, not matter how well Shu is able to reconfigure his form it is still made of black sand. As such, any close inspection will give away the falsehood of the form. He is also not a mimic, so any voices that he makes would have to be his best impression.

Shu is also required to eat a large amount of iron-rich foods to support the production of the black sand.

Combat Savant: B-

Fighting comes as naturally as breathing for the tanuki. Even at a young age he possessed a frightening aptitude for dismantling anyone that dared to face him. This skill has only amplified with age and experience. Making use of his heightened sense of awareness—which he calls his "godly insight"—Shu is capable of deconstructing quirks and abilities to their basic principles after viewing them only once.

To maximize the usage of his "godly insight," Shu takes on a primarily defensive approach to fighting. By maintaining a comfortable distance through swift evasion and redirecting attacks he is able to properly observe his opponent and discover weaknesses to exploit. Once found, he can deliver devastating, decisive and debilitating blows to whomever has the misfortune of fighting him.

When viewed in combat it doesn't necessarily even seem like he is doing much, but none of his movements are wasted. Every action has a purpose, and it's all to bring him closer to victory.

When he is feeling particularly cheeky, Shu will even "steal" the movements of his opponent. For example, if an opponent has a signature punch, after proper observation he could mimic the strike as well as the opponent. Though, sometimes he will have to utilize his quirk to make up for potential physical limitations in order to accomplish this effect.


Shahar's Omnitool: C-

An experimental device that Shahar created, using technologies acquired from Sovereign Technologies. It's an implant device that offers him a wide spectrum of services through the use of hard light. It's most prominent feature is its ability to analyze materials and breakdown their chemical make-up. Typically, Shu will use this feature to examine a crime scene to find trace elements of clues or verify the quality of products. There is even an AI assistant installed that can help him allocate and compartmentalize his information. Though, most often he uses the omnitool as a communication device to keep in touch with Zazie.
