|| Appearance ||
Being of kitsune descent, Miyuki has the grace and elegance unmatched by most females. With a small stature, and very tiny figure, this vixen seems almost as if she is too fragile for anything. With long flowing hair of a beautiful aquamarine shade, she maintains almost an exotic look that is enhanced by the hairstyles she favors. In almost any situation, her silken locks are pulled back into either a low ponytail, held effortlessly by some decorative ribbon or bandana, or up in a messy bun. Whichever style she chooses, most of the time she will have loose strands of hair hanging delicately down her face and framing it beautifully. Sometimes, they seem to gather in front of her eyes, which is a bit of a shame, considering how captivating those orbs are. Being the same brilliant shade as her tresses, they have more of a slanted edge to them that gives her the very mysterious demeanor that she has always kept for herself. If one were able to tear their own gaze away from the hypnotic, sultry stare she seems to pull off so easily, they would allow their own eyes to linger just momentarily on the small, pert nose in the center of her face. Living up to her bloodline, depending on her mood, her nose will twitch on occasion, but mostly if she is feeling a certain emotion a bit stronger than she normally would.
Passing by that part of her face, the next most noticeable feature is her lips. Full and plump, they maintain an everlasting cherry hue, adding even more color and radiance to her seemingly light complexion. Her hands are small and nimble, with only slightly elongated nails at the end, a feature that she has used more than once in any sort of fight or argument she may have had with another person. And last, but certainly not least, when it comes to her physical appearance, she has the appendages that indicate what she truly is. Perched on top of her head, two large kitsune ears have been placed, the fur there being a deep rich red color, although the tips look as though they have been dipped in black ink. They remain soft to the touch, and whenever a sound is heard around her, they instantly swivel and stir in that direction. The other detail of her body is the soft, fluffy tail that is visible right above her rear. Like her ears, it is the same lovely hue of red, and feels just as silky, but instead of black ink, its tipped with white.
When it comes to clothes, Miyuki maintains the same elegance that her features give her credit for, although she seems to change style on occasion. Mostly wearing fabrics of darker tones, she can be seen in a few variety of outfits. One example would be the classic look that she is most seen in, which would be the off-the-shoulder sweater and long skirt. Allowing the creamy skin of her shoulder blades to be seen, the rest of her torso is covered by the warmth of the sweater, normally ranging from blacks to blues to even purples. The lower part of her body is adorned with a long flowing skirt, one that reaches between her knees and ankles. Depending on her mood, she will either wear knee-high socks and a simple pair of shoes, sandals, or even sometimes barefoot.
But in complete opposition to this outfit, she has the one she normally wears for any fight, and the one she tends to favor when she is one of her moods. Allowing her kitsune ears to be hidden from view, a wide-brimmed hat is placed atop her head, black as the night, with a bright red feather perched at the top. Her eyes are usually hidden when she wears this accessory, due to either the brim of the hat or her hair being pushed in front of her face. As we make it to the chest and stomach, a skin-tight shirt is what she wears, allowing her to move with ease and flexibility, movements unhindered. And to seemingly help this thought process, she only wears bikini style bottoms, form-fitting, and the same shade as her shirt. A belt usually hangs off her hips, small pouches dangling off the leather band as well as a sword that she tends to favor in battle. The look is finished off with knee-high leather boots, and fingerless gloves, allowing her claws to be free to attack. Hanging off her neck as an afterthought is a pendant, one that almost seems to be linked to Miyuki herself. Whenever she makes some sort of attack and uses her magic, it glows an eerie crimson color that seems to emanate to a wide range.
The last and final detail of Miyuki's appearance is a very important one, and plays a key purpose in all of her fights and battles. Because of Miyuki's favoritism toward alchemy, she had always found it rather bothersome to always have to draw out a transmutation circle when she was in a fight. And so, on each of her wrists, she has had those same transmutation circles tattooed there so that she will never have to worry about such again. These too will glow the same as her pendant when she makes an attack, and having them at some convenience has saved her cute little rear countless of times.
|| History ||
Unlike most kitsunes, Miyuki was not raised in a setting where she would be around most of her own kind. Instead, her family had decided to live in the forest area in seclusion, giving their only child the freedom of adventure in her own home and, as she would call it boastfully, her 'territory'. The moment she was able to walk and talk, she could be seen exploring the wide expanse of wooded area, easily breaking into her fox attitude by climbing trees with the greatest of ease. As a matter of fact, there were many instances in her childhood where her parents would have to climb up after her and bring their little daughter to safety when she got stuck on a branch that was way too high to climb down from. Miyuki would easily squeal in delight when her father would pick her up in his strong arms, cradling her small form close to his chest to bring her back to her mother who would be waiting patiently with a smile. It could easily be said that her parents loved her dearly, and even when she got in trouble, no amount of scolding could ever make her change the way she thought about her two most precious people.
Because she was isolated from the outside world in every sense, her mother and father took it upon themselves to teach her everything she needed to know. When it came to the mental attributes, her mother Yumi would step forward and take charge. She was the one that taught Miyuki how to read and write, how to add and subtract, and any other basics that most human children learned in their own schools. But her knowledge far exceeded what any teacher could provide, because at the young age she was brought into such information, her mother expanded on her lessons. It was easily recognized that Miyuki had a greater intelligence than most, as she was able to understand everything with ease. Soon her mother could teach her more than the simple fundamentals of school, but more about the world itself. She explained how people interacted, the different races and forms of others around her, and even lifestyles of those she may never meet. Yumi challenged her every chance she got, wanting to make sure that when she was old enough, she could leave their home without either parent worrying about their only daughter.
However, that meant that if they ever wanted to see their baby girl grow up and face the day, she would also have to learn to protect herself. That's where her father Souta came into the picture of raising Miyuki. At the same age when she started her lessons with her mother, he began with simple fighting styles. His first methods brought together hand-to-hand combat, so that she could at least fight back if she had nothing else with her at the time. With intense training, she easily obtained the agility, grace, and strength that made her family proud. She knew how to block, defend, counter, and attack, using just her bare hands and claws. Taking things up a notch, he introduced her to the world of swordsmanship. She started off with a simple katana, but as her skills exceeded even his expectations, he knew she could take herself further. Soon, he had given her his most precious heirloom from his own family line, the Kusari-Tsuru. A blade that when prompted, would turn into a chain of blades, allowing her to attack at a longer range. Within the next two years, she had mastered this particular weapon, and it was at this time that her mother bestowed a gift upon her that would cause her to become the strongest she had ever been.
On the eve of her thirteenth birthday, her parents held her a small party amongst the family, dimming down the lamps and only allowing the candles of the cake her mother had prepared to bring light into the room. Seated around the table, Miyuki was told to close her eyes, and with excitement pumping through her veins, she did so with a great enthusiasm. Hearing her parents shuffling behind her, she nearly jumped when she felt something falling against her chest, as well as the cool touch of skin at the base of her neck. When she was finally given permission to look, she quickly glanced down to see a pendant nestled into her shirt, illuminated somewhat by the flickering flames in front of her. Like the sword her father had given her, this was an heirloom, this time from her mother's side. Glancing up at Yumi with confusion in her eyes, she watched as a smile formed on the Kitase matriarch's face.
She had just been given the Tarekazari Shinku, a necklace filled with the bewitched blood of her ancestors. Watching her daughter with amusement, Yumi began to explain what the point of the necklace was. Wearing this pendant was not a necessity for any powers that a descendent may hold, but it would help increase their abilities greatly. Strength, endurance, speed, and even any magical tactics would be even more powerful than before. Miyuki had become slightly curious as to what magic she could be talking about, and this was when both parents decided to finish the rest of her training. Now that she was physically and mentally prepared, they had to finish with what she could release inside of her body. And that came from two strengths from both sides of the family.
The sword that Miyuki had been given had been specially designed for this particular family, and that was why it was considered an heirloom. In her next lesson, her father explained that the blades could actually unlink from the sword, causing her to gape at him in surprise. Even if that happened, how could she use them? He would merely chuckle and lift a hand to cause the blades to stir around his body. It seemed the Kitase bloodline held the powers of telekinesis, and as such, it had been passed down to the next-in-line. He explained to her that the Kusari-Tsuru had been made for the intended purposes of both long and short range attacks, aided by the abilities that their family had. And knowing that he would most likely never have another child, or much less a son, Souta was confident in allowing his daughter to take hold of the legacy. And so, from that day, he began to show her how to unlock that hidden power. It started off slowly, getting her to lift small things with just her willpower, but soon, she tapped into her mind and once she got started, everything came to her naturally. Before she had turned fifteen, she was a master at both her sword and her ability of the mind.
And during all of this, Yumi was intent on showing Miyuki what else their family could do, which would involve that pendant of hers. Considering that Yumi was the more intellectual of her parents, it wasn't a surprise when she explained that her talents were not one of strength but of science. The art of transmutation, to be specific, something that she had explained when she was younger. Showing her the symbol she would have to draw in order to cause such alchemy, she told her that the basis of her bloodline, the Miyazaki clan, was with nature. And so, when she would use her alchemy, the earth would be where she derived her great strength from. Showing her the different assortment of plants and seeds that she would need to have with her, she began to help her understand the attacks she could unleash, as well as coming up with her own ones. She was able to make weapons out of almost anything, including a combination of her mother's skills with her father's sword. And with the pendant around her neck, she realized just how much more her abilities were enhanced. Miyuki had indeed been blessed with two great families and the blood that ran through her veins.
When Miyuki had hit her seventeenth birthday, all types of training and teaching had been complete. She knew everything that was needed for her, and both her mother and father accepted that she was ready to leave their beloved home and take on the world she had never seen. Her mother, knowing that Miyuki would experience many fights in her lifetime, decided to give her one last gift of parting. Using her own brand of magic, she was able to tattoo the images of the transmutation circle on each of her daughter's wrists, enabling her to attack without the worry of creating one herself. The wondrous gift brought tears of joy to Miyuki's eyes, embracing Yumi with dampened cheeks. Finally, when it was her time to go, she packed her essentials and was near the door. With a kiss on the forehead from her mother and a ruffling of her hair from her father, she was off with only the clothes on her back and the bag slung across her shoulder. Having been told where to go to reach civilization, she found that it was a ways from any sort of town, considering just how deep into the forest she had lived all those years. It had taken her an entire day to reach the trees' edge, and when she saw the lights of homes in the distance, she knew that she was ready for whatever happened. For the next year, she wandered from town to town, trying to find a place where she could begin her new life, and maybe find some happiness along the way.
Shortly after her eighteenth birthday, she came across a place called the Club Orion. She had been wary at first, but when she had entered the first time, she knew she had found a place she could be comfortable with. Within the last year, she had fought with so many people, met with so many allies, experienced so many different emotions that she was flustered and worried about repeating those same mistakes. But it seemed here, she didn't have to. Instantly, she was welcomed by a select few that reminded her greatly of the one or two true friends she had made during her travels. It was at this point that she decided maybe it was around this place she would settle, and where she would continue to live out her life.
|| Weapons ||
| Kusari-Tsuru |
The Kusari-Tsuru was an heirloom left to Miyuki by her father Souta. Within its appearnace, this sword seems to be nothing more than an ornate long sword, slender with its blade but just as sharp as any. The handle is decorated with silver designs wrapping around the entire expanse, will the family name written in kanji on the side. Right next to where the thumb of the holder would be, there is a small button hidden there. When it is pressed along with the force of the swing of the blade, the sword comes apart in segments and chains, creating a kind of bladed whip. These sections of blades can be unlinked as well at any time, and so, can be very dangerous when numerous blades are hurtling at an unprotected figure.
| Tarekazari Shinku |
Although it can't really be considered a weapon, the Tarekazari Shinku has a great power behind it, and only reacts to those whose blood matches the contents of the crimson pendant. Whenever Miyuki is in battle, the pendant reacts to her emotions and drive, enhancing her strengths and abilities with just a faint glow. Whenever she seems to be in a very dire situation, it is known that the Tarekazari Shinku will use its own hidden magic to protect its holder. Only a few times has it unleashed itself to aid its mistress, but each time it has been a devastating blow to any enemy that dares cross her path.
|| Attacks ||
| Telekinesis |-
Through the teachings of her father Souta and the blood that courses through her veins, Miyuki has mastered the art of telekinesis, or to put in simpler terms, moving objects with one's mind. She is able to move anything from her own body, nearby, or even a distance away towards her opponent or any other destination she chooses. Her telekinetic powers come into play with many of her other attacks, and she has never had a problem with using the ability.
| Crushing Shell |
By effectively encasing an enemy in a telekinetic field, Miyuki is able to attempt and crush every bone in their body, or at least put enormous amounts of pressure on them. The 'shell' is extremely form fitting to the skin, almost like a layer of cellophane is covering it.
| Kusari-Tsuru - Separation of Blades |
Because of the training she had gone through previously, and the weapon handed down to her from her father, Miyuki has mastered this very strong, and in some cases very rewarding, technique. Utilizing the ability of her Kusari-Tsuru to grow and extend, she telekinetically breaks apart the bond of each chain to each segment, then uses her powers to move them wherever she chooses, whether it be straight towards an opponent, or in some other defense she has come up with.
| Storm of Roses |
This move consists of Miyuki transmuting her sword into a vine-like whip, with thorns adorning the entire expanse. By twirling it around and slashing it through the air, a large wind is created, the thorns from her whip shooting outwards in the gust as well as a mixture of sharpened petals. Each small projectile contains a very strong acid that is capable of melting through the strongest of metals.
| Floating Lily |
Using her alchemy, Miyuki can create a kind of lily pad-like plant the size of a small platform. And by using her telekinesis, she can keep it flying through the air with herself perched on top. Because of it's small size, it has both its positive and negative outcomes. It's quick in speed and easy to maneuver through tight spots, but is slightly difficult to stay on unless one has practiced enough.
| Light Bomb |
There must be some sort of plant on the field for this attack to be pulled off. Miyuki is able to create a kind of light bomb from a plant by increasing and amplifying the power of the energy created by photosynthesis. This attack can be done with either seeds, pods, or any other type of plant.
| Ensaring Vines |
With this attack, Miyuki is able to cause large, poisonous vines to erupt from the ground under an enemy, effectively trapping them within a cage stronger than titanium. Each thorn, as with almost all of Miyuki's plant alchemy attacks, is able to penetrate even the strongest metal and inject a numbing and paralyzing venom. If a target manages to escape on the vines first attempt, the vines will move and try again and again until they are destroyed.
| Mud to Stone |
Plant alchemy is not the only form of alchemy that Miyuki has learned over her lifetime. Like all alchemists, she is able to transmute any atomic structure she chooses and rearranges it. In this particular move, she causes a portion of the ground beneath an opponent's feet to quickly become either mud or quicksand, then just as quickly transmutes it back into stone, trapping them in the ground.
| Plant Clone |
Again through the power of Miyuki's plant alchemy and by placing seeds throughout an area, she is able to grow mindless plant beings that look exactly like her and possess her same capabilities. The plants are under complete control under her will, thus making them excellent puppets or distractions. However, the energy signature they give off is very different from the real Miyuki's, making it easy to tell them apart for ki using warriors. But again, they make up for this in their attack strength. In short, what she can do, they can do too.
| Seed of Demise |
With this, a small seed is stealthily concealed on a victim's person, then burrows under the skin unnoticeably. When a command word is spoken, the seed immediately bursts forth through the skin, forming a small wound. From there, vines begin to wrap around the opponent and form a nearly unbreakable cocoon of thorns around it.
| Asflasia |
Through the power of Miyuki's inborn talent for plant alchemy, she is able to summon a monstrous devouring plant creature. Wild poisonous vines cover the creature and are able to lash out an enemy with acidic thorns, capable of paralyzing and weakening their target. The thorns are able to tear through metal like a hot knife through butter, making them excellent melee weapons as well as submission attacks. In addition to these vines, Asflasia's four jawed mouth has the crushing capacity to tear a bus completely apart.
Regeneration also plays apart in the creature's abilities. By metabolizing energy stored in photosynthesis and from growth enhancing enzymes, Asflasia is able to rapidly regenerate lost limbs as well as whole parts of its body. In short, cut one vine or head off, and two shall grow to take its places. In the event that it is totally destroyed, a small seed is immediately buried into the ground, where another Asflasia can be summoned upon a command word from Miyuki.

But it seemed here, she didn't have to. Instantly, she was welcomed by a select few that reminded her greatly of the one or two true friends she had made during her travels. It was at this point that she decided maybe it was around this place she would settle, and where she would continue to live out her life.
|| Weapons ||
| Kusari-Tsuru |
The Kusari-Tsuru was an heirloom left to Miyuki by her father Souta. Within its appearnace, this sword seems to be nothing more than an ornate long sword, slender with its blade but just as sharp as any. The handle is decorated with silver designs wrapping around the entire expanse, will the family name written in kanji on the side. Right next to where the thumb of the holder would be, there is a small button hidden there. When it is pressed along with the force of the swing of the blade, the sword comes apart in segments and chains, creating a kind of bladed whip. These sections of blades can be unlinked as well at any time, and so, can be very dangerous when numerous blades are hurtling at an unprotected figure.
| Tarekazari Shinku |
Although it can't really be considered a weapon, the Tarekazari Shinku has a great power behind it, and only reacts to those whose blood matches the contents of the crimson pendant. Whenever Miyuki is in battle, the pendant reacts to her emotions and drive, enhancing her strengths and abilities with just a faint glow. Whenever she seems to be in a very dire situation, it is known that the Tarekazari Shinku will use its own hidden magic to protect its holder. Only a few times has it unleashed itself to aid its mistress, but each time it has been a devastating blow to any enemy that dares cross her path.
|| Attacks ||
| Telekinesis |-
Through the teachings of her father Souta and the blood that courses through her veins, Miyuki has mastered the art of telekinesis, or to put in simpler terms, moving objects with one's mind. She is able to move anything from her own body, nearby, or even a distance away towards her opponent or any other destination she chooses. Her telekinetic powers come into play with many of her other attacks, and she has never had a problem with using the ability.
| Crushing Shell |
By effectively encasing an enemy in a telekinetic field, Miyuki is able to attempt and crush every bone in their body, or at least put enormous amounts of pressure on them. The 'shell' is extremely form fitting to the skin, almost like a layer of cellophane is covering it.
| Kusari-Tsuru - Separation of Blades |
Because of the training she had gone through previously, and the weapon handed down to her from her father, Miyuki has mastered this very strong, and in some cases very rewarding, technique. Utilizing the ability of her Kusari-Tsuru to grow and extend, she telekinetically breaks apart the bond of each chain to each segment, then uses her powers to move them wherever she chooses, whether it be straight towards an opponent, or in some other defense she has come up with.
| Storm of Roses |
This move consists of Miyuki transmuting her sword into a vine-like whip, with thorns adorning the entire expanse. By twirling it around and slashing it through the air, a large wind is created, the thorns from her whip shooting outwards in the gust as well as a mixture of sharpened petals. Each small projectile contains a very strong acid that is capable of melting through the strongest of metals.
| Floating Lily |
Using her alchemy, Miyuki can create a kind of lily pad-like plant the size of a small platform. And by using her telekinesis, she can keep it flying through the air with herself perched on top. Because of it's small size, it has both its positive and negative outcomes. It's quick in speed and easy to maneuver through tight spots, but is slightly difficult to stay on unless one has practiced enough.
| Light Bomb |
There must be some sort of plant on the field for this attack to be pulled off. Miyuki is able to create a kind of light bomb from a plant by increasing and amplifying the power of the energy created by photosynthesis. This attack can be done with either seeds, pods, or any other type of plant.
| Ensaring Vines |
With this attack, Miyuki is able to cause large, poisonous vines to erupt from the ground under an enemy, effectively trapping them within a cage stronger than titanium. Each thorn, as with almost all of Miyuki's plant alchemy attacks, is able to penetrate even the strongest metal and inject a numbing and paralyzing venom. If a target manages to escape on the vines first attempt, the vines will move and try again and again until they are destroyed.
| Mud to Stone |
Plant alchemy is not the only form of alchemy that Miyuki has learned over her lifetime. Like all alchemists, she is able to transmute any atomic structure she chooses and rearranges it. In this particular move, she causes a portion of the ground beneath an opponent's feet to quickly become either mud or quicksand, then just as quickly transmutes it back into stone, trapping them in the ground.
| Plant Clone |
Again through the power of Miyuki's plant alchemy and by placing seeds throughout an area, she is able to grow mindless plant beings that look exactly like her and possess her same capabilities. The plants are under complete control under her will, thus making them excellent puppets or distractions. However, the energy signature they give off is very different from the real Miyuki's, making it easy to tell them apart for ki using warriors. But again, they make up for this in their attack strength. In short, what she can do, they can do too.
| Seed of Demise |
With this, a small seed is stealthily concealed on a victim's person, then burrows under the skin unnoticeably. When a command word is spoken, the seed immediately bursts forth through the skin, forming a small wound. From there, vines begin to wrap around the opponent and form a nearly unbreakable cocoon of thorns around it.
| Asflasia |
Through the power of Miyuki's inborn talent for plant alchemy, she is able to summon a monstrous devouring plant creature. Wild poisonous vines cover the creature and are able to lash out an enemy with acidic thorns, capable of paralyzing and weakening their target. The thorns are able to tear through metal like a hot knife through butter, making them excellent melee weapons as well as submission attacks. In addition to these vines, Asflasia's four jawed mouth has the crushing capacity to tear a bus completely apart.
Regeneration also plays apart in the creature's abilities. By metabolizing energy stored in photosynthesis and from growth enhancing enzymes, Asflasia is able to rapidly regenerate lost limbs as well as whole parts of its body. In short, cut one vine or head off, and two shall grow to take its places. In the event that it is totally destroyed, a small seed is immediately buried into the ground, where another Asflasia can be summoned upon a command word from Miyuki.
