Emperor Katsuki Bakugou

His always upright and rigid posture conveyed absolute control, as if the whole world were under his dominion.
Her hair, an ash blonde uncommon in those lands, fell in slightly disheveled strands, giving her a wild air that contrasted with the immaculateness of the palace. Even so, it was carefully styled according to her rank, held in place in part with golden imperial ornaments.
His eyes were the most intimidating thing about him: a deep red, piercing, always watching with distrust and superiority. A single glance from him was enough to make anyone lower their head.
His face was sharp, with sharp features, and an almost permanent expression of irritation or disdain. He rarely smiled, and when he did… it wasn't exactly reassuring.
Of athletic build, his body reflected discipline and strength rather than luxury. He was neither a weak nor a decorative emperor; even among his guards, his presence stood out like that of a warrior.
He wore elaborate imperial robes in dark and gold tones, embroidered with dragons that symbolized his absolute power. The fabrics were heavy and elegant, but on him they seemed a natural part of his dominion, not a burden.
And even surrounded by riches… there was something about him that was dangerous. As if he could explode at any moment.

The emperor wore imperial robes of the highest quality, made of heavy silk that draped elegantly, yet did not compromise his physique. Dark colors predominated—deep black, intense red, and gold details—reflecting both authority and danger.
Over his main robe, he wore a mantle embroidered with five-clawed golden dragons, the emperor's exclusive symbol. The threads shimmered subtly in the light, giving the impression that the creatures moved with every step he took.
The collar and edges were reinforced with traditional patterns, perfectly aligned, without a single imperfection. Nothing about his clothing was sloppy… even though he gave that impression.
His wide, ornate imperial belt supported the structure of his attire and emphasized his firm posture. From it hung discreet jade and gold ornaments, symbols of power and status.
On formal occasions, she wore an imperial crown (mianguan) with fine chains that fell in front of her face, although in private she preferred something simpler: a headdress that revealed her blonde hair, partially gathered.
The sleeves were long and wide, but on him they didn't seem to get in the way; on the contrary, he moved with an almost aggressive precision, as if even the clothes obeyed his will.
And although everything about his attire spoke of wealth and tradition… he felt different.
He didn't look like an ornate emperor.
It looked like a weapon dressed in gold.
