In General

The Ace: Considering that the mansion is full of Unstable Powered Child, the Foundation employees need to be one.
Arbitrarily Large Bank Account: Initially, the Foundation has a lot of money from different sources - reward money for Midoriya's intel that led to Overhaul's arrest, "Thank you" money from League of Villains for Removing the Rival that is the Yakuza, government funding, monthly transfer from Midoriya Inko (now that she started and runs a company), and stock exchanges. But, between the kids being Big Eaters and the mansion being constantly repaired due to the kids' activities, the expenses quickly drain the former two. Izuku's Heroic RRoD is caused by his attempt to Determinate his way past it.
Famed In-Story: Kiba being a popular streamer managed to make the family becoming known all over Japan and eventually overseas.
More Senior Subordinate: Due to Izuku being Young and in Charge, his employees are significantly older than him.

Bodyguards

Sori Jaga

Quirk: Ultimate Breed

Hair: Black (Ponytail)

Sori is a high-ranking bodyguard of the Nekonanako Foundation. She enters the story when she attacks the Midoriya Foundation's security under the belief she's being tested for a position. In spite of this, she ends up getting hired.

Her Quirk, "Ultimate Breed", allows her to do pretty much anything a cat can, including high speed, sensitive ears, and sharp claws and fangs, with additional super strength to boot.

Absurdly Sharp Claws: Her nails can become sharper.
Achievements in Ignorance: Her attack does help Izuku find that there are several security holes that need fixing.
Almighty Janitor: Justified due to her job as a bodyguard means she tends to have free time when Izuku is in the mansion, not to mention the Foundation has other bodyguards. That means Izuku tends to give her odd jobs, such as sparring with the kids, fetching take-out, or cleaning the training room.
Amazonian Beauty: She is described as looking like an Olympic athlete with "a body that as if it was made of pure muscle".
Animal Jingoism: Downplayed. While she's a cat and Giza's a rat, they're professional enough to not antagonize each other. But the instinct can kick in.
Izuku, speaking to Giza: Did Sori try to sleep-eating you again?
Animal-Themed Superbeing: She is a Cat Girl with the strength and skills of all sorts of large felines.
Bunny-Ears Lawyer: Despite her Ditziness, she is a very powerful fighter and bodyguard.
Child Prodigy: She managed to get a bodyguard license at a very young age which, according to Izuku, is as hard to get as a Hero license, but for a more rule-restricted job.
Curb Stomp Cushion: As the aggressor of the Curb-Stomp Battle. She may have mowed down all the G.R.I.M.M.s, but she definitely did not come out unscathed.
Didn't Think This Through: When she decides to ask for a job at the Midoriya Foundation, she completely forgets to call ahead. Thus, when she infiltrates the grounds, Sori believes she's being tested by her future employers while Izuku and the others think they are facing a potential assassin.
The Ditz:
- She completely forgets to call Izuku to that she looking for a job with him, and straight up trespasses the foundation's woods.
- She spends half of her salary to purchase Kiba's merchandise, which, as her bodyguard, she could get for free.
- She tested a toilet to see if it's possible to use one as an escape chute, causing her to stuck inside it waist up.
Dumb Muscle: Very strong, but rarely reliable outside combat
I'm Your Biggest Fan: Kiba's. Her main reason for working at Midoriya Foundation is to be able to work for the girl.
Man Bites Man: Her sharp teeth are strong enough to rip G.R.I.M.M.s' flesh.
Mix-and-Match Man: She is from a long line of people with large cat-based Quirks through selective breeding, and her Quirk reflects that.
One-Man Army: What her Quirk makes her, as she singlehandedly beats up Midoriya Foundation's Grimms. Even more so when she deals with The Foot Ninjas with the aid of Chaos Emerald.
Red Oni, Blue Oni: The Red Oni to Sai's Blue Oni.
Super Breeding Program: Sori and other Nekonanako Foundation members were conceived depending on which task they will specialize in.
Super-Soldier: Sori is a member of The Comcat Girls, the latest line of Nekonanako Foundation's Combat-oriented catgirls.

Sai Bura — Saber

Quirk: Infinite Blade Works

Hair: Golden blonde (tied to a bun)

Eyes: Deep blue

Sai, formerly known as "Saber", is a former Pro Hero who left the business when she realized how corrupt the Hero Public Safety Commission was, and currently works as a bodyguard for whoever is willing to pay her. Izuku hires her sometime after Sori Jaga's "attack".

Her Quirk, "Unlimited Blade Works", grants her the ability to copy swords that she stores in a pocket dimension that she can summon or shoot out of.

Antagonistic Offspring: A girl named Konashi, who joins the League of Villains when they attack the Midoriya Foundation calls her "Father" and claims to be her daughter. She's completely mystified by this claim because she's never had sexual relations.
Badass in a Nice Suit: Her current look after retiring from being a Pro Hero.
Beauty Is Never Tarnished: Downplayed. She does not look like she's been through a lot as a Pro Hero veteran besides her Calloused hands.
Because I'm Good At It: Downplayed. Being raised as a Pro Hero by H.S.P.C. means she has no other skills besides fighting for a living, so she becomes a bodyguard after she retires.
Broken Pedestal: While it's still unclear what really broke the camel's back, it was started when the H.S.P.C., who trained her to become Pro Hero, disrespected Berserker post-mortem.
Crystal Weapon: Futaba gives her a sword made of blank Fractals to be copied by her Quirk. not only it did not dissipate like her other swords when summoned, but it's also charged with Chaos Energy from absorbing it from within her Quirk's dimension.
Expy: Of Altria Pendragon from Fate Series.
Hyperspace Arsenal: Her Quirk is a pocket dimension where she stores unlimited copies of all swords she has ever seen.
Loophole Abuse: Sai's trial to become Midoriya Foundation's bodyguard is to fight Yami's G.R.I.M.M.s three times, but Izuku explains Thou Shall Not Kill restriction twice, which is deliberate on his part.
Mercy Kill: She was forced to do this to Berserker to stop his rampage in the past. She later does this to the Hound as part of passing Izuku's Secret Test of Character.
Mission Control: She later becomes the surveillance and security system operator, complete with a surveillance station.
No Badass to His Valet: Her mother, because she can out-intimidate Sai.
Obstructive Bureaucrat: The H.P.S.C. blocked her investigation about her team's demise, and after her retirement, they gave her a hard time finding a new job.
Older Than They Look: She is a decade older than her mid-20 looks.
One Degree of Separation: Caster's power boost (that led to her demise and Berserker's, as well as the disintegration of Sai's team) was caused by All for One.
Red Oni, Blue Oni: The Blue Oni to Sori's Red Oni.
Revenge Before Reason: Subverted. After finding out about All for One from Izuku after years of the H.P.S.C. blocking her investigations, she thanks him for being honest with her and commends his integrity when he admits that he cannot tell her more because it is not his secret to tell.
Rocket-Powered Weapon: One of her swords is rocket-powered, and she can use it for Sky Surfing.
Shock and Awe: One of her swords can generate electricity, which she uses to electrocute Mina during a spar by conducting it through her trail of acid.
Shout-Out:
- Her Quirk is named after and based on EMIYA's Unlimited Blade Works.
- Her mother is based on Lancer Artoria/The Lion King from Fate/Grand Order, and her statement of having many siblings may come from said game's "SaberFaces" meme.
Spontaneous Weapon Creation: She uses her swords in melee as often as in range.
Steven Ulysses Perhero: Her Pro Hero name is "Saber".
Storm of Blades: How she uses her Quirk most of the time.
Strong Family Resemblance:

- Her biological mother is noted to be similar to her, but "bigger" in every aspect compared to her.
Super Team: Used to be a part of this with Archer, Lancer, Assassin, Berserker, and Caster, before Caster betrayed the team and manipulated Berserker to attack them. The result was Berserker killing Lancer, Archer and Assassin killing Caster, and Sai Mercy Killing Berserker. After that, Archer and Assassin mysteriously went missing.
Throw Down the Bomblet: Some of her swords have explosive properties.
Tyke Bomb: Like Hawks, she was trained by H.P.S.C. from a young age.

Tokoshi Totoyai

Quirk: Power Comes With Age

Hair: Grey

Tokoshi is a muscular 85-year-old elder whose Quirk, "Power Comes With Age", rendered him too weak to be accepted into hero school back when he was still a teenager, but when he has generated enough strength, he ends up becoming too old to attend one.

His experience with fighting and vigilantism is enough for him to be accepted as Midoriya Foundation's third bodyguard.

Badass in a Nice Suit: He now wears a butler uniform under Izuku's employment.
Battle Butler: Admitted that he always wanted to be one, and one of the reasons he wanted the job.
Cool Old Guy: He is 85 years old, very muscular, and has experience in underground fighting and being a Vigilante.

Healthcare Motivation: The main reason he is hunting for a job is to pay his grandson's medical bill, which Izuku happily foots in, to his surprise.
Lightning Bruiser: He's very muscular, but he can keep up with Quirked Izuku.
Screw Politeness, I'm a Senior!: Downplayed. Izuku notes, from Tokoshi's speech pattern during the job interview, that he is not used to talking formally or politely.
Shockwave Stomp: His Ground Punch is strong enough to cause this.
Silver Fox: He is good-looking for his age with his slick hair.
Stronger with Age: The older he gets, the more strength his Quirk gives to his body. At his current age, he can flip a truck.

Giza

Quirk: Perfect Combatant

Fur & Hair: Brown & White

Skin: Grey

Giza is a mutated rat who was experimented on by a group named The Foot alongside Nezu before they escaped and goes on their separate ways. When he visits the U.A. principal to look for a safe harbor for himself and the four experimented baby turtles he saved from the same group, Nedzu and Izuku offer him a place in Midoriya Foundation, becoming the fourth bodyguard.

His Quirk, "Perfect Combatant", allows him to master various martial arts.

Animal Jingoism: Downplayed. While he's a rat and Sori's a cat, they're professional enough to not antagonize each other.
Anthropomorphic Transformation: He was a normal rat that was exposed to The Ooze.
Bare-Fisted Monk: His Quirk helps him become one.
Barefoot Cartoon Animal: He is an anthropomorphic rat and wears no footwear.
Expy: Of Splinter from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, with his look being based on the 2012 version.
Foil: To Nezu. The U.A. principal is a Cartoon Creature often described as resembling a "mouse", is short, possesses high intelligence, and prefers to take time and measures to gather resources and influences before tackling The Foot. Giza is unambiguously a rat, relatively tall, a master in martial arts, and believes that The Foot needs to be destroyed immediately. The last point is why they parted ways.
Handwraps of Awesome: His arms are wrapped in one.
Interspecies Adoption: He saved and adopted four mutated turtles from a more recent experiment of The Foot.
In the Hood: His robe has one.
Magnetic Hero: He managed to entice most of the future members of The Sky Pirates to come with him by telling them that he can help them or offer them what they wanted.

Remember the New Guy?: He is an old friend of Nezu.

Stealth Expert: He managed to sneak behind Nedzu in his office in U.A., playfully mocking its security. Later on, he can hide the Cerberus triplets from Izuku during the bodyguards' surprise trial.
Stealth Hi/Bye: seems to enjoy the "Hi" part.
They Would Cut You Up: A victim of this alongside Nezu after The Foot grants them Quirks by exposing them to The Ooze.
Weak, but Skilled: Fu notes that "Perfect Combatant" only helps Giza with martial arts skills, with no additional oomph.
Fu's Notes: He pretty much has a maxed-out skill stat. But the disadvantage of that is that the rest of his stats are just average. And in this world, you can't win every battle with skill alone.

Giver of Lame Names: Protoman seems to agree.

Bash Brothers: They certainly work best together, with one covering the other's flaws.

Ridiculously Human Robots: Discussed. Gamma 1 finds Gamma 2's habit of faking tics, such as stretching his body, unnecessary. Gamma 2 counters that by doing human-like tics and traits, he shows the public that they are more than mere machines.
Gamma 2: We can say we think like humans or we have human-like souls all we want, but actions speak louder than words. People don't like seeing cold, ruthless efficiency in their heroes. So little stuff like this goes a long way when it comes to putting them at ease.
Robot Superhero: Xeno Nageru's latest creation, which are improvement over Protoman, but not as strong as Gamma Zero.
Straight Man and Wise Guy: Gamma 1 is the Straight Man while Gamma 2 is the wise guy.
Gamma 1: I'm supposed to give the speech!
Gamma 2: Yeah, and I see that was a mistake. How are they supposed to get the message about us not just being machines, when you A.I. generated your speech!
Gamma 1: A.I. generated!? I spent hours putting together that speech!
Gaamma 2: Well, there's your problem! You over-thought it!

Her Quirk, "Forged in Fire" allows her to shoot out fire from her hands, and she's able to change the shape of the fire and make it solid.

Black Knight: Her pro-hero costume is black armor without a helmet, which she still wears as the general of MFPA.

Expy: Of Tanya von Degurechaff from The Saga of Tanya the Evil.
First Law of Gender Bending: Izuku concludes that whatever Quirk that turned Gehalt into a girl is Reality Warper in nature since not even Eri's Quirk can reverse it.

Raiden is one of the first true successful results of Midoriya Foundation's Project Mechanization and is currently undergoing training to get used to his cyborg body before he is ready to lead.

His Quirk, "Living Lightning", allows him to turn his body into lightning, covering his body with electricity and giving him Super-Speed.

Awesome, but Impractical: His Quirk's strength diminishes from every use, and he can only Ride the Lightning in a straight line until he hits something, so he has to think through when to use it and what his trajectory will be. But after the Mechanization, his Quirk lasts longer and his computerized brain lets him calculate his upcoming trajectory faster.
Electronic Eyes: His one visible eye is a red one.
Elemental Shapeshifter: His Quirk allows him to turn into lightning.
Expy: Of Raiden from Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance.

Affectionate Nickname: She addresses Alice with "My little Pendragon" when talking to her.
Compelling Voice: Her Quirk allows her to force someone to do her bidding if she shouts their full name.
False Friend: As soon as Chole learns and tells her friends within the government what Alice's Quirk actually is, they started to distance themselves from her, and those who are still in touch with her are acting too nicely.
Foolish Sibling, Responsible Sibling: The responsible one to Cathleen's foolish one.
"Sometimes I swear it feels like I'm the older sister."
Full-Name Ultimatum: Her Quirk is this trope weaponized as she needs to say a person's full name to use it.

Oh, Crap!: She reacts like this when Izuku asks if she's certain the Star and Stripe that's escorting her and Alice are not another person in disguise.

Vera Nikitina

Quirk: Reverse Action

Hair: Blonde

Eyes: Bright Green

Vera is a Russian nurse who is seeking new job opportunities in Japan. Izuku hires her under Tsuma's recommendation.

Amazonian Beauty: She's seven feet tall, and is built similarly to Star and Stripe.
Berserk Button: Illnesses and sickness in general, because when she was a child she spent a year suffering from a disease that caused her a lot of pain if she moved too much.
Combat Medic: Downplayed. While she doesn't have any experience in fighting, she is proficient with her Meatgrinder Surgery equipment and is willing to fight if she must.
Good Feels Good: She does enjoy healing her patients and seeing them get better.
Friend to All Children: She cares a lot for the children, but her Berserk Button means she becomes obsessive in her need to heal them. It has caused her plenty of trouble before.
Hair of Gold, Heart of Gold: She is sincere in her dedication to being a nurse and really likes children.
Healing Shiv: Any weapon she wields can be this thanks to her Quirk.
Meatgrinder Surgery: Her Quirk heals people by doing things that would normally harm them - but instead it causes the opposite effect. While the Quirk means there's no actual damage, it is quite intimidating. She demonstrates this by bashing Yonda's bleeding head to stop the bleeding, and later by turning a flamethrower on Kiba to soothe her burns.
Neat Freak: Justified because dirtiness brings sickness. She even manages to turn her run-down apartment room as clean and tidy as most hospitals.
Semantic Superpower: Her Quirk allows her action to cause an opposing effect.
Sensual Slav: A Russian Amazonian Beauty.
Shout-Out: Fu observes that one of the non-medical applications of her Quirk is that she can moonwalking by walking forward.

Living Relic: As someone who born before Quirks exists, she counts as one.
Meido: Her uniform resembles one, thanks to Shiruku.
Only Sane Man: Exaggerated, since not only did she comes from pre-Quirk era , therefore already out of place with people with Quirks, but she also works at Midoriya Foundation, where what's normal for this time is stretched even further.
- Case in point, when she sees the training room after being used for her first time, she vomits.

Sue

Quirk: Puppet Master

Hair: Pale Blonde (long)

Skin: Pale White

Sue is a recently hired Midoriya Mansion housemaid that Maria found near a dumpster when she explores the city for the first time.

Her Quirk, "Puppet Master", allows her to shoot threads from her fingertips with adjustable thickness and durability.

Creepy Doll: Her glassy eyes, her pale, porcelain-smooth skin, and her doll-like joints make her resemble this.
Emotionless Girl: She is described as "robot-like", but Fu notes that she did feel pleased whenever her task is finished.
Happiness in Slavery: Beloved Servant kind. She has no desires of her own besides serving others, and she's lucky enough that Izuku is benevolent.
Machine Monotone: She speaks like this.
Master of Threads: She can create threads from her fingertips.
Meido: Thanks to Shiruku.
Selective Gravity: Items that are tied to her threads can float like balloons.
Self-Imposed Exile: The reason why she's in a dumpster after learning that her parents didn't want her.
"felt like trash so I went where I belong."
