█BACKGROUND ▬ Oto was born to a small clan in the outer reaches of Mistral. Though she has no recollection of her childhood past what her grandmother had told her, it is known in the records that Oto’s parents were merchants, and the clan had thrived for over a century until a ruthless attack by unknown sources that left three quarters of its populace dead and the other fraction enslaved. Oto and her grandmother were among the very few that managed to escape following enslavement, but it would later become clear to Oto that she was merely trading one form of enslavement for another. Raised singlehandedly by her grandmother, Yuriko, it seems that every memory Oto has of her childhood and upbringing is one of pain and sorrow. Her grandmother was a heartless old crone with a natural aptitude for maximizing the exploitation of those around her. Unsurprisingly, it is believed that in her youth, Yuriko had strong ties with the criminal underground of Mistral, and so when she had everything stripped away from her, Yuriko and Oto were forced to seek sanctuary in the only place Yuriko knew she could trust.
With Oto’s parents gone, the Yuriko knew that only way to ensure her own safety was for the equivalent exchange of a life for a life. Upon being inducted back into the crime syndicate, Yuriko promised her protectors the custody of Oto, who would serve as their new recruit. Oto was forced into ‘work’ at a young age. It started first with simple petty theft and begging, and it was only due to the fact that Oto was able to successfully surpass her quotas every week that she and her grandmother were safe. Though Oto was still under the care of her grandmother, she was also forced to undergo training sessions with countless others who not only educated her on general topics (arithmetic, language arts, social studies, etc.), but also on more specialized areas including hand-to-hand combat, advanced thievery, pickpocketing, lockpicking, and escapology. Yoriko never felt any remorse in her actions, and in fact was encouraging this indoctrination of her granddaughter, to the point where the woman would beat and verbally abuse Oto for any of her failures.
By her mid teens, Oto was successfully moulded to being a fully functional, fully trained mercenary. Not only was she a master of stealth and covert criminal operations, Oto's mastery over her choice weapon - the chakram - was second to none in the network. Through nearly a decade of torturous conditioning and immeasurable hardship, Oto was finally ready for action and was able to make legitimate money serving as a bodyguard to high profile clients. For over two years, Oto was forced to serve under dozens of crime lords, following orders without question to keep her superiors (and her grandmother) happy. Oto never really knew the true definition of freedom until an unnamed individual managed to break the proverbial chains that shackled her to her perception of the world. From that point on, Oto vowed never to mindlessly take orders from anyone ever again, and has been working hard to reverse the conditioning that seems almost hardwired into her mind.

█PRIMARY WEAPON █ ▬ Yata no Kagami (八咫鏡, lit. the Eight Hand Mirror) █ ▬ In essence, Oto’s primary weapon is a large metal chakram that fits around her like a hoola-hoop. The weapon is composed of two large rings, the outer ring serving as the weapon portion which is sharpened in almost all 360 degrees, and the inner ring which serves as the base and has a crescent moon design. When not in use, the Yata no Kagami is folded in half eight times over and can be attached to Oto’s belt. █Melee Form ▬ In its melee form, Yata no Kagami is as it appears – a large chakram. Forged from a rare high grade metal found only in Mistral, the weapon is actually rather lightweight in comparison to its bulky appearance. The outer ring is dangerously sharp, and even in its folded storage form can be used as a weapon. The inner ring houses eight chambers where dust cartridges can be stored and released to imbue the outer ring with certain properties. █Ranged Form ▬ Though intended to be used as a melee weapon, Oto can extend the range of her weapon due to her unique semblance. When converting into the ranged form of the Yata no Kagami, the joints at which the weapon can be bent become dislocated, allowing the weapon to fragment into a maximum of eight pieces. In accordance with her semblance, the number of fragments Oto’s weapon breaks into will correspond to how far into her training she has gotten. At its maximum potential, each of the fragments have their own corresponding dust holders and can be controlled separately via the movements of Oto’s fingers. █Ammo Type ▬ N/A █ ▬ Due to the unwieldy nature of Oto’s weapon, the training and maintenance involved to keep up with her combat training is rigorous, and the use of her weapon requires not only great focus, but also immense coordination and fluidity on the battlefield.
█*NAME ▬ Ransoutengai █*AURA COLOR ▬ Dark Purple █*DESCRIPTION █ ▬ Oto’s semblance has to do with the concept of metaphysical fields that all things in existence seem to possess. With this semblance, she is capable of tapping into these fields and syncing up to them. Once in sync, it is almost as if the object becomes an extension of her own physical body and can be moved and controlled as such, regardless of its weight or size. As her power and control grows, Oto eventually gains the ability to influence a maximum of eight objects with her fingers (excluding her thumbs). █ ▬ (Level 0//0-99 posts) At the basic level, Oto must have physical contact with the object she wishes to sync with. To control the object, she must use two hands. Objects can be controlled in a 10m radius so long as Oto can clearly see where the object is. █ ▬ (Level 1//100-199 posts) At level one, Oto can control up to two objects. She still needs physical contact to sync with the objects, but now each hand can control one object on their own. With her Yata no Kagami broken into two fragments, Oto can also charge her aura into the blades and ‘connect’ them (by bringing her hands together) to create an aura-based shield that spans the center area of the two blades. The larger the area, the more taxing. Objects can be controlled within 20m radius as long as Oto can clearly see where the object is. █ ▬ (Level 2//200-299 posts) At level two, Oto can now control up to eight objects – one for each of her fingers. Physical contact still must be made prior to syncing. With her Yata no Kagami broken into eight fragments, Oto can now charge each of the pieces to create an even larger shield that is capable of reflecting attacks once she connects her fingers together. Objects can be controlled within a 25m radius, and the synchronization is enough for her to have a form of gross proprioception, allowing her to move and control objects by sense with decreased accuracy if not fully visible. █ ▬ (Level 3//300-399 posts) At level three, Oto does not need to have physical contact with objects prior to syncing. Her thumbs also now come into play, and while they don’t necessarily play a role in controlling any of the eight objects, the use of her thumbs now allow Oto to awaken the untapped energy of the objects in her control, making it less costly on her aura to use her semblance. This also means the reflective shield that she can make with her Yata no Kagami is also much less taxing on her. Objects can be controlled within a 50m radius, and upon synchronization Oto will have a fine proprioception, allowing her to perfectly move and control objects by sense alone. █*DRAWBACKS ▬ Due to the nature of this semblance, Oto must have the ability to move her arms, hands, and fingers depending on what level she decides to use it at. Anything that keeps her bound will prevent the use of her semblance. Oto must maintain laser focus when synced with objects, especially at the higher levels of her semblance. Any break in focus will not only cause the connection to break, but once one connection breaks then all subsequent connections will break and she must generate them again. She also is unable to use this on living beings as their fields are too complex to be properly synced.

❖❖❖Assessment❖❖❖ Hello, my name is Youroka Kage, and I'll be judging your profile today!
❖OK! So Mistral has been destroyed and cut off from the rest of the world for 30 years. I don't mind having you be from around there, and your faction being that because of your parents, but I thought that I should let you know that information. All cities have been cut off, and destroyed other than Vale. However, Atlas was only destroyed 5 years ago. ❖ Ok, with the strongest skill, understand that if someone is controlling a character/NPC, then the ability might not hit as you want it to. ❖ Ok, the only thing that I need for your Semblance is how far the objects can go before you no longer have control over them.
❖❖❖Assessment❖❖❖ Hello, my name is Youroka Kage, and I'll be judging your profile today!
❖Ok, so I have looked over the distances, and my only issue is that a city block radius is different in every city. I would rather you put some solid numbers in there, instead of an estimate of how big the area is.

❖❖❖Assessment❖❖❖ Hello, my name is Youroka Kage, and I'll be judging your profile today!
❖I have talked to a friend that I trust, and we both agree that 150 meters radius is too big. We think that maybe the Max should be 50 meters radius. You could start at 10 meters, and increase it from there.
