Character Appearance: blindfold / no blindfold
Powers and Abilities: Oh boy here we go. He is considered the strongest sorcerer in the series, so bear with me —

general skills / abilities;

→ hand-to-hand combat; he's a pretty dang good martial artist when it comes to close quarters, easily overpowering special grade curses ( on top of his immense cursed energy, which will be touched on soon ).
→ physical strength, speed and reflexes; all of these things tie into the former, but there are several instances ( such as the altercation with jogo and a previous fight with miguel ) in which it's blatantly obvious that he's fast as fuck, boi! quick on the draw when it really matters and can generally cause some serious damage without a whole lot of effort.
→ tactical intellect; as much as he has a tendency to present himself as an aloof idiot, he's actually very good at figuring out his opponent's plan of action with very little information to go on.

cursed energy manipulation;

→ immense cursed energy; all jujutsu sorcerers are possessed of a certain amount of cursed energy — enough that it will allow them to use their domain expansion once per day on top of whatever other cursed techniques they have — but his level of cursed energy is so much that he's able to use his domain expansion multiple times in one day, thus earning him the title of the strongest jujutsu sorcerer.
→ reversed curse technique; he is one of the few sorcerers that use a reverse technique to heal himself, and though this does not extend into the ability to heal others, it provides positive energy to infinity and gives him access to his red and hollow purple attacks.
→ black flash; a phenomenon that intensifies a user's physical attack when cursed energy is applied to it ( within one-millionth of a second, but technicalities, right? ). powerful as hell, but no one ( not even this guy ) is able to do it at will.

inherited technique;

→ limitless; special to the gojo family, this particular technique grants the user nigh-absolute control over space through cursed energy manipulation at an atomic level, which results in multiple subsequent techniques within the ability itself. this is the base level of the technique, and as such, has three standard and one 'non-standard' form beyond it.
→ infinity; limitless' neutral form; commonly known as the ability to stop, though its true power is to slow things down. it's basically a barrier positioned between gojo and anything / anyone that might be attempting to hit him, and he has complete control over what can and can't touch him based on mass, speed and danger ratings. ( yeah! physics! )
→ cursed technique lapse: blue; reinforced version of limitless; limitless is and negative energy are amplified and create a vacuum, and a scenario is created in which the world is forced to correct itself and fill in all that negative space. all matter within the range of commanded space is pulled together.
→ cursed technique lapse — maximum cursed energy output: blue; jfc that's a mouthful. gojo essentially creates a black hole that he can control at will, and augment its destructive capability.
→ cursed technique reversal: red; an inversion of blue, it probably goes without saying that it has the opposite effect. he activates the divergence of infinity and causes a repulsive force that repels all matter in the vicinity. it has two times the destructive ability of blue.
→ hollow technique: purple; the baddest non-standard technique; more potent and destructive than the two previous forms, he combines both blue and red and generates a singularity that erases all matter in its path. ( for real tho, strongest for a reason i guess? )

barrier techniques;

→ curtain; a barrier that seals off a certain area from other people or even a specific person from entering.
→ unlimited void; gojo's unique domain expansion. he creates a metaphysical space that results in victims essentially being bombarded with all kinds of stimuli and information all at once, endearing them incapable of movement or thought. his level of control over his domain means that he's only able to activate it for 0.2 seconds and limits the lasting effect of anyone trapped inside it. ( though anyone he is in direct physical contact with is immune to it. )

other abilities;

six eyes; like you aren't overpowered enough already, jesus. not a whole lot is known about it, but it ties directly into the precise control of limitless. another inherited technique from the gojo family, it has been said ( by one of his students, yuta okkotsu ) that it allows him to reduce his cursed energy consumption to nearly nothing, and as such, he will never run out of it during a fight. it is also heavily implied this technique allows the user to perceive the world around them in terms of mass, speed, energy, etc. ( thus the use of the blindfold. makes sense. )

What Did Your Character Wish For? For Tsumiki Fushiguro to come out of her coma.
What Potion Did They Receive? Animal Transformation
Did They Drink It? Yep, and he can now turn into a clouded leopard. Mostly white with the outlines of the usual spots and his trademark blue eyes.

Character Questions:
1. Who is the person your character is most bonded with from their canon? Or who is someone they miss the most? I've got two separate answers for this one; as far as the person he's the most bonded with, I would probably have to say it's Megumi. He's been the kid's caretaker / benefactor from a very young age ( honestly, probably before he had any right to look after another human being, but whatever ) and now as his teacher, there's even more responsibility as far as looking after him goes. He would honestly do anything to keep him safe, even if he has a really bad penchant for sending his students on dangerous missions and leaving out key information as to how dangerous they are.

As for someone he misses the most, that would one thousand percent be Suguru. They were absolute best friends, and there really are no words for how betrayed he felt when the other's ideals and severe lack of morality sent him down a different path that ultimately led to his demise. How are you supposed to feel when the person you treated as your own moral compass wants to destroy all non-sorcerers and leaves you behind to do it?

2. What are they most afraid of? Losing more of the people he cares about the most; even if he'd ultimately had no choice in how he'd dealt with Suguru in the end, and despite being all high-and-mighty about maintaining the title of the strongest jujutsu sorcerer, there's no real point in being the strongest if you're unable to keep those closest to you out of harm's way. Or from making stupid choices.

3. What is their weakness? Emotionally, mentally and physically? Emotionally and mentally his weaknesses are definitely the two people mentioned in the first question. Suguru was his best friend and partner, the one person he confided in the most and Megumi is both his student and a member of his found family, someone he will protect with his life if it comes down to it. If something were ever to happen to him he might just find himself in a position in which rational thought isn't so rational.

Physically, he would probably say he doesn't have any weakness, but take his cursed energy and jujutsu training away and he can stub his toe on the bedframe just like anyone else. Does sugar count? Because he has a sweet tooth the size of a small country and will make any detour necessary to get something he's in the mood for. Wagashi!!

4. What would make them happiest? For Megumi to have his sister back, of course … for Suguru to magically come back from the dead and not want to take the whole world out … and to be able to reform the jujutsu world like he wants. He kinds of hates ( read: actually really, really hates ) the higher-ups he currently has to deal with, and would like nothing more than to rebuild everything from the ground up through proper education. That way, the next generation of sorcerers might actually have a chance at being equal with him!

( You think I'm kidding? Nah man, I'm not kidding in the slightest. )

5. What’s their type for a lover? He would probably say that he prefers someone that can match his energy but that's … a lot for literally anyone and he genuinely benefits from the sort of person that can balance him out, but still keep up with him. Definitely someone as tactile as he can be ( because when you keep Infinity up all the time to act as a barrier regardless of whether or not you're actually in any danger, you can get a little touch-starved ), or at least doesn't mind that he has a tendency to forget that other people have personal space bubbles they don't want infiltrated. Someone that can look beyond his nonchalant, aloof and sometimes downright goofy-ass exterior and realize there's more to him than what's on the surface. And accept him for who and what he is, anyway.

And maybe somebody with a really nice ass that knows how to smooch like it's their job.
