Automeris io
Personality:
⏩ Free-spirited, yet chained by a sense of pessimism regarding the current state of her world. She feints whimsy when, in-actuality, she thinks nonstop of war.
⏩ Impatient; becomes irritable when things begin to drag and seems especially short-tempered in group environments. Will separate and take matters into her own hand if she feels her partners are not making efficient progress.
⏩ Incisive and logical minded, though she doesn't like talking logic and overall seems rather laconic, greatly valuing brevity.
⏩ Resilient; uncompromising, she obdurately upholds her ideals and is always willing to argue or question. Because of these traits, she has a tendency to become the sardonic voice-of-reason amongst her teammates.
⏩ Teasing to good friends and, in her own lighthearted way, supportive. She also has herself a sense of humor that tends to very sarcastic. Around Gabriel, even, she tends to act coquettish.
Appearance: [See left for general reference.] 5' 2" ; 110 lbs ; pale, rosy skin ; red-tinted, globular eyes with somewhat-visible bags ; round head and features ; nubian nose (not pictured) ; black bob haircut with bangs, long-legged despite her overall diminutive height.
Faunus-wise, she does not have wings—it would be impossible, anyhow—but some strands of her hair grow in shorter than the rest and cling together as if instinctively wishing to form "antennae" atop Hitomi's head. Sweeping, scar-like patterns shaped distinctly like eyes encase her back and upper shoulders.
Clothing-wise, Hitomi clearly takes little shame in her faunus features, usually wearing open-back tops to disclose her natural scars. Overall, her dress style is admittedly immodest; even in combat, she is not adverse to showing skin. Like Gabriel, her getup is very modern with high-rise mini-skirts and thigh-high stockings. She enjoys embellishing her hair with accessories and is not adverse to frequent use of feminine apparel; a variety of make-up, nail polish, etc. One of her main accessories of choice is a pair of goggles from her scavenging days along the streets of Porsch. She was part of the "rats" throughout the majority of her childhood, a group of youthful dumpster divers that almost always turned to thievery. Though Hitomi denies that she ever personally purloined, she is certainly no stranger to the matter. Her goggles have no real technical use but she does don them in battle anyway for a morale boost.
Semblance:
Untouchable
"As far as you're concerned, I was never here."
Hitomi can alter her tangibility, either short-term for increased evasiveness or long-term.
Level 3: Permanent intangibility; Hitomi possesses full control now over her immateriality and can stay in an invisible form for as long as she maintains concentration. In this state she can, of course, pass casually through people and objects. It is unknown what will occur if Hitomi regains tangibility while still "inside" of something else. She does not want to learn.
Level 2: Controlled intangibility; Period of intangibility is no longer fueled entirely by movement. Hitomi can flicker in and out of susceptibility.
Level 1: Temporary intangibility; With enough built momentum, Hitomi can briefly pass through solid surfaces.
Weapon: A
war fan with needle-like blades tipping each rip. When collapsed, the blades meld together, creating a dagger-like weapon, perfect for classic stab-and-slice action when the trademarks of the fan will not suffice. Hitomi can dual-weild both her fan as well as her
blaster gun, more accustomed for incapacitating enemies. Hitomi's blaster shoots exploding balls of lightning dust after a moment or two of charging. Contact with this can cause temporary paralysis and a stinging numbness, potentially leaving an enemy to the full mercy of Hitomi's war fan. The blades tipping Hitomi's fan can also utilize dust for disorienting, fiery dances around foes.
"I couldn't figure out how to put a gun inside of a fan so I just got one on the side."
Battling Strengths and Strategies: Hitomi is very much a melee-oriented, in-your-face fighter. Her size, leg length and weight make her lithe on the battlefield, albeit delicate. She loves bamboozling her opponents, toying with those of larger size and stature, but this cocky way of battle can put her in treacherous situations. Hitomi's main necessity in-battle is guidance. Similar to Gabriel, she is very conscious of where
she stands on the battlefield but alternatively is not as perceptive when regarding the positions of her opponents. In other words, she tends to get caught up in the moment. On another note, Hitomi is quite skilled in the art of camouflage.
"Hey, over here— nope! Hey, yoo-hoo! Over here— nope! ...hey! I'm over here! You can't keep up, can you?
Other:
⏩ Her faunus lineage comes with a mass of excess "fuzz", making her an avid stranger in some truly unorthodox places, like her neck.
⏩ Hitomi's ultimate fear is losing control of herself, especially to another person.
⏩ She believes grovelling and belittling herself in any way to be completely beyond her.
⏩ An avid collector of shiny knick-knacks and miscellaneous objects.
⏩ At her peak activity-wise during the evening and early morning, she very rarely gets more than a few hours of sleep on average.
