Some characters might be intrigued. For example, Izuku Midoriya would probably be very interested in understanding how the Gamer Sparda powers work. He would see it as a new type of quirk to study and might try to find ways to incorporate the strategies used in the 'game' aspect into his own hero training.
One common plot twist could be that the Gamer abilities interact with the My Hero Academia world in unexpected ways. For example, the character with Gamer powers might suddenly discover a new 'game level' that is actually a secret villain lair in the MHA universe. Another popular plot twist could be the origin of the Gamer powers being tied to some ancient MHA legend. Maybe it was a power passed down from a forgotten hero who was also a gamer in a sense.
Katsuki Bakugo is also a common character. His explosive personality can be interestingly combined with the gamer concept. Maybe a gamer - like Bakugo who is always looking for the next 'level up' in terms of his quirk strength and hero status, constantly challenging others in a competitive, almost game - like way.
I really liked 'Gamer Izuku's Ascent'. In this fanfiction, Izuku starts with his gamer skills and slowly builds his reputation as a hero. It shows how he uses his unique skills to outwit villains and make friends along the way. There are some really cool action scenes and character developments.
One common theme is self - discovery. The OC, being a gamer in a new world like My Hero Academia, often has to figure out their place and abilities. Another theme is power - up. Just like in games, the OC usually gets stronger over time.
The combination of the 'gamer' concept with 'My Hero Academia' is appealing. It allows for a different take on the existing powers and abilities in the show. For example, characters can level up their quirks like in a game, which is a fresh idea.
One great 'gamer my hero academia fanfiction' is 'The Gamer's Ascent in UA'. It has an interesting plot where the main character uses gamer - like skills in the My Hero Academia universe in really creative ways. It's full of action and the character development is quite engaging.
Bakugo could also make an interesting main character. His explosive personality combined with a gamer ability would be really cool. He could be super competitive in the 'gamer' aspects of the story, like ranking up in a hero - ranking system that works like a game. And he would be all about proving he's the best, not just in real - life heroics but also in the game - like challenges.
First, give your OC (Original Character) a unique quirk. It should be different from the existing ones in My Hero Academia. For example, a quirk that allows them to manipulate virtual reality within the real world. Then, develop their backstory. Maybe they were an avid gamer before getting their quirk and this influenced how they use it. Also, think about their personality. Are they confident like Bakugo or more laid - back like Sero? By focusing on these aspects, you can create an interesting OC for your fanfiction.
First, think about your OC's unique gaming abilities within the My Hero Academia universe. For example, they could have a quirk related to video game mechanics like 'Save Point' where they can rewind time a bit. Then, create a conflict. Maybe they're competing in a hero - gamer tournament against villains in disguise. Another key is to incorporate the existing MHA characters in interesting ways, like having them be mentors or rivals to your OC.
One way is to have a character with a strength - based Quirk in My Hero Academia combine it with 'The Gamer' skill of stat - boosting. For example, if a character has super strength, they could use 'The Gamer' ability to boost their strength even further for a short period. Another way could be for a character with a speed - related Quirk to use the 'Gamer' dodge ability to make their movements even more unpredictable.
