I have a question of those who have read enough of World Trigger and of MHA to understand everything I say in this post.
Basically, if the power/mana lores of both series are squished together, I want to know opinions on which Quirks are "Trion-based." My object is to figure out if Quirks can affect Trion Soldiers, and if so, which Quirks.
Possibility 1: Plus Ultra factor is a mutated Trion gland. If this is the case, then all Quirks would technically be Trion-based. Because the gland's function is expanded/changed with immediate implications for the entire body, Side Effects no longer occur; they have changed into Quirks.
Possibility 2: P.U. and Trion gland are separate things. A Quirk could involve changes to the Trion gland but won't always. Side Effects, when/if they still occur, would probably be misattributed to the Quirk.
My theory is that Trion permeates the bloodstream and would be involved in Quirks that create "something from nothing". If there's a good physical explanation for the source of the Quirk's effects, it wouldn't be Trion-based in Possibility 2. Which means, for instance, I'm not sure if MomoYao's Quirk involves it.
Following are lists of those in Class A I think do and don't have Trion-based Quirks according to Possibility 2.
Probably uses Trion
Mineta, Sero, Shoji, Todoroki, Aoyama
Possibly uses Trion
Yaoyorozu, Ashido, Hagakure, Koda (because his Quirk matches a known S.E.)
Probably does not use Trion
Tokoyami, Kirishima, Sato
Does not use Trion
Midoriya, Bakugo, Urakaka, Ida, Ojiro, Asui, Kaminari, Jiro (the natural structure of squid tentacles is sufficient to explain how her cords can extend)
Looking forward to your thoughts.
