--Personal info--

Positive Traits:

Respectful: Opal rarely talks back or acts out of line unless she sees fit.

Supportive: When Opal cares about someone, she'll support them until death do they part.

Selfless: Opal will risk her health and happiness to help others, even if she doesn't particularly like someone.

Level-headed: Focus and clear thoughts are strengths of Opal's.

Mild Pacifist: Opal prefers to ask questions first and shoot later, keeping things calm until it's absolutely impossible.

Negative Traits:

Insecure: Due to past events, Opal is very insecure about things such as her name and reputation, and therefore strives to be "an objectively good person."

Blunt: Opal sugarcoats nothing. She was raised to be direct and not dance around issues, so this trait often comes off as her being unnecessarily harsh.

Anxious: Opal has diagnosed anxiety. This intense fear of disappointing people, becoming her father, and being a failure motivate her, but hold her back far more.

Distant/Cold: Opal has a hard time letting people in, as she is scared they'll just stab her in the back or cause her more pain than she'd already endured, so she keeps her distance. She rarely speaks to classmates unless she has reason to.

Other traits:

Intelligent: Opal is smart and she knows it. Because her father is an informant, she knows how to get info. She says "I have skills that would make Sherlock Holmes want to quit the field of investigation all together."

Low Self-Esteem: Because she'd been shunned and pretty traumatized, Opal doesn't have high self esteem.

Likes: Reading, cooking, studying people, quiet activities, gardening, potted plants.

Dislikes: Her name/family, people bringing up her past or name, arrogant people, crowds and crowded spaces.

Fears: Opal is terrified of being like her father. She is also scared of being left alone with her own thoughts, since she finds her own mind a sometimes scary place when she's not focused on something.

Habits: Opal always has a pen on her and she fidgets with it to keep herself focused on the current situation. She also keeps notes on her classmates like Midoriya, though her's are more detailed. Opal also avoids making eye contact because of a lifetime of people either giving her withering glares or horrified looks.

Backstory: Opal has had a hard life. Her father, Izaya Orihara, is an information broker. He has had a role in many group suicides and gang activities -- even starting gang wars just to watch them burn. The name Orihara brings fear to those in Ikebukoro and the surrounding areas.

Opal's severe anxiety comes from an event in her childhood where she was kidnapped and held for ransom by a gang for almost three weeks. She wants to be a hero so she can right her father's wrong and bring those who traumatized her to justice.

Her little brother, Sora, grew up not knowing of her traumas, but idolizing heroes. He heard of Opal wanting to go to UA, but was unsure. He begged her to do it. He begged her to follow her dreams for the sakes of everyone in Ikebukoro. She chose to listen to him, and ended up at UA, quietly battling her demons while training for heroism, all to protect the weak like him.

Her mother, Akari Azure is an engineer and geneticist. She's pretty similar to Moira from Overwatch -- controversial and zero fucks to give. The reason Opal is blonde with blue eyes is because Akari thought messing with her own eggs was a great idea.
