Saotome

The Saotome is an old clan, who proudly trace their bloodline to near the first appearance of quirks. For the entirety of their bloodline, they have honed the Mind-type quirks, anything to do with controlling others or causing mental pain, or telepathy and the like. They often marry their husbands into their family, rather than joining other families. They are quite purist and picky with the quirks of their mates, as well as the quirks of their offspring. If one is considered sub-par, it is passed off to a childless family member, or sent out of the family alltogether. The current matriarch is Amaya Saotome, and her heir is her son Hayate Saotome, Ayama's father. They will stop at nothing to create the "perfect quirk".
