♣Affiliation: Vongola
♣Gender: Gender
♣Nickname(s)/Alias(es): Three Eyed Alien, Subject Hiroshima
♣Age: 14
♣Love Interest: None
♣Face Claim: Satori Komeiji (Touhou Project)
♣Height: 150cm
♣Weight: 40kg
♣Build:
♣Hair Color: Pink
♣Eye Color: Pink
♣Scars/Tattoos/Piercings: All the scars on her body have long since been healed. Her biggest oddity, however, is likely her third eye and cords.
♣Description: Ai may appear to be an ordinary girl at first, with many strange quirks such as the pink hair and such but otherwise ordinary. Perhaps a little introverted, as she tends to stand completely straight and her movements are often slow and mechanical. She is rather small and very frail, yet she never puts on a face of weakness. The most unusual feature about her, however, are the various cords that stick out of her body from various places, most of which are hidden under her clothes, but some are clearly visible. They are yellow, pink and red in appearance and appear like laces, tied up in intricate little patterns in some places but sticking out of her at others. She can change the size of these cords with her ability to even use them for combat. They all attach to what appears to be a large eyeball, covered in red flesh. Normally, she hides these with her illusionry ability.
♣Preferred Clothing: Ai rarely ever changes her outfit. Her outfit was chosen to assist disguise her appearance, especially with the various heart-related accessories that disguise the heart-shaped nodes where her cords attach to her body.
♣Oddities: Well, for one thing, she's an Alien.
♣Skills: Like many Mist Guardians, Ai can induce hallucinations in her foes, able to create some of the most vivid of altered realities. She can also use this ability in other ways, such as editing memories and even controlling weak minds. She can even completely possess people's bodies, but she has to be within an extremely close range to do so, and her target must be in her submission. She must then abandon the body she already uses.
However, Ai does have the ability to tap into manipulation of space-time, a process that is extremely complicated and takes millions of years to calculate, but it can be done, thanks to the Thought-Integrated Database. However, this cannot be preformed with confirmation from the future.
Most of her offensive abilities involve entangling her enemies with her 'cords', which she can light with Mist flames for extra effectiveness. As for defensive, she can use her box weapon to make friendly targets invisible or use her special ability to make barriers in space-time, where matter and energy cannot pass through, as well as manipulate and use gaps, which are holes in any barrier, be it physical or not. She also can recover from most injuries to her body, though, it's not exactly Ai that's getting hurt.
♣Hobbies: None.
♣Phobia(s): Ai's only fear is to fail. Her vessel, however, is a huge pyrophobic.
♣Sexuality: Asexual
♣Personality: Ai is a very odd one. She is the quietest girl you'll ever meet, hardly interacting with others or even moving. She'll often gaze upon things randomly when not spoken to and essentially never shows any emotions of any type, so one can hardly tell if she has a personality at all. However, when she does speak, what she says is so technical and so confusing that it's nonsensical.
When spoken too, she does respond directly. She may hesitate at rare times, but she does talk. She'll answer questions very simply with a 'yes' or 'no'. Or if a question requires an elaboration, she'll explain it very complicatedly, and very monotonously.
However, just because she doesn't show feelings, doesn't mean she inevitably experiences them. And sometimes, even she may let them run loose. After all, her body is a human body.
Ai often feels that her body is very ineffective, seeing that it is the body of a frail girl whom has very little physical strength and is inferior to other human beings physically. Others of Ai's specific 'frame' are trained to disregard the body they possess, not bothering to protect it from harm, which Ai tends to do as well, yet because of a promise Ai had made to the Vongola Tenth generation boss, Ai is forced to protect the body nonetheless.
♣Relationship Status: Single.
♣Family: None. Ai is an artificial being, just like the rest of her kind. The family of her vessel had been killed a long time ago due to a certain bomb.
♣Personal History: Ai's kind is a race of Aliens that exist in a time in the future that is so far off that it is difficult to comprehend, a time where even the laws of physics work differently. After the destruction of the human race, their kind was able to advance exponentially, being able to take on less than physical forms and being able to learn all their was to know about the universe, conquering every corner until there was nothing left to conquer, learning everything until there was nothing left to learn. They even managed to survive the Great Change an adapted to an entirely different universe. They became the perfect race that was completely uncontested and had accomplished the dream of the perfect society that knew everything.
What happens next?
Nothing happens next. There is nothing that can be accomplished now that everything that can be accomplished has been accomplished. The Aliens, becoming the perfect race, living in a perfect world, found that perfection was awful. Of course, being the perfect beings they are that strive for nothing but perfection, they wouldn't, or rather, they couldn't do anything about it. So, they would endure the perfect hell for the rest of eternity.
Yet, even in this perfect world, alternate possibilities sprouted from it. Even in a hivemind race could there be a deviant idea, an interesting idea, a destructive idea. For a race that exists only in mind, ideas were the most powerful things. The idea was that it was possible to change their fate. Seeing as they could master time travel, it was possible for them to go back in time to a point where their race could possibly have been most vulnerable, the only point in history where they had been contested, and change that fate so that their race falls. There was only one time that the Aliens had ever been contested by another intelligent race, and that was the war that existed between the Aliens and the Human Race. Humans were a very imperfect race, a race of deviant thinkers whom existed more physically than mentally and had very weak mental interaction. They disagreed, created conflicts and fight each other self-destructively, yet they would quickly recover and grow stronger from these conflicts. If they went on to conquer the universe, it would be unlikely that they would face the perfect hell the Aliens did.
The idea was made and although the Aliens did have power over time travel, they couldn't transport themselves that far back in time because they were adapted to a universe that was greatly different from the universe that existed back then. So, they had to create a frame that could survive during that time period, a frame based on an Alien frame that existed at that time period created for the sake of human interaction, a frame meant for one purpose, for the sake of changing fate and destroying its own kind. It was from that idea that Ai was conceived, and by manipulating the multiverse, she was created with the fail-safe mechanism that ensured that she would both always succeed and always fail.
Ai was then sent back to a time before the war ever occurred, a time where humans were still ignorant of the existence of Aliens. A time where she had the power to prepare the human race for a threat they weren't even aware of. There was many ways that she could have done it, but she had chosen to seek out the assistance of the Vongola Famiglia. The Vongola were a powerful business company, having their hand in just about anything, although few knew of the Vongola's secrets ties to the mafia, the fact the the Vongola was the king of the mafia world. Also, they were in possession of the Vongola Rings, an important part of the Tri-ni-set of which the Aliens seek out (but were ultimately unable to get due to their destruction in the future by the Eleventh boss). With their help, Ai could convince them to create box weapon technology available to the public, a technology developed by the mafia and relatively unknown. Although, a lot of countries like Japan were celebrating a time of peace so creating weapons would seem suspicious. Creating box weapon tech with more civil purposes, however, would be a good precursor to the box weapon technology the world would need to fight the Alien threat.
Her interactions with the Vongola have been kept a secret, but supposedly, she had gotten very close to the Tenth and only highly-ranked members were authorized to know about her. It was these connections, however, that gave her some influence in the family. She was allowed to preform her research under the Vongola's protection. Apparently, Ai and the Tenth had also discussed many secret plans together, but whatever they were, they may not be completed as easily with the Tenth's death. It was a promise that Ai made to the Tenth that allowed her to do what she needed with the Vongola. As part of the Tenth's agreement, it seemed that Ai was decided to become the Eleventh's Mist Guardian. She had only met the Eleventh personally a few times, but she plans to be as loyal to him as possible. There was also another promise that she had to make and that was to free her host body from her control when she felt she had completed her mission.
Ai was hesitant, but she agreed.
♠Techniques: Hallucinate ~ Ai can invoke hallucinations in her enemies, as in typical illusions. Using her natural telepathic capabilities, as well as her affinity with human minds (and the ability her frame has to manipulate human memories) she can create vivid illusions in the minds of other human beings. Unfortunately, due to her inhuman nature, she has difficulty creating illusions that would invoke psychological harm on an enemy and her illusions tend to have more utility than creativity.
Materialize ~ Ai's ability to create 'real illusions'. Merely, this is her ability to manipulate reality, by creating an illusion and manipulating space and matter using Mist Flames. The more vivid an illusion is, the more energy it requires to sustain it and Ai only has a steady amount of Mist flames.
Entanglement ~ Using her cords, she can try and entangle her enemies or attack them at close ranges, yet she can increase her range by manipulating the size of these cords from their typical lacy state to the thickness of fire hoses. She can also light them with hot Mist flames to make them stronger and more powerful. The only issue with this attack is if the more essential cords are damaged, it could cause harm to Ai, although her cords have great regenerative qualities.
Bio-Entanglement ~ She can cover her cords with spikes and Mist flames, making them appear to look like rose branches. Typically a very painful attack.
Data Refusal ~ Ai makes a barrier in space-time where no matter, energy or data can pass.
Possession ~ Ai has the ability to possess more human bodies than her own. Ai can possess the bodies of other humans that are in her submission through physical means. While possessing others, she can completely control their minds just as she can control her own, preventing them from being able to think without Ai's permission. Ai can read a person's mind, read their memories and give them hallucinations that are impossible to snap out of, as well as put the body into a coma. While possessing another body, Ai's mobility is greatly reduced as she is focusing on controlling at least two minds at once, so she's quite vulnerable to an external attack.
Betrayal of the Frida ~ Ai has the ability to destroy other Alien minds. While most Aliens are able to attack each other mentally, destroying each other is just about as effective as a human beating another human to death with their bare hands. Ai, on the other hand, is able to destroy other Alien minds with more ease by dealing a heavy blow with a mental attack and absorbing their minds. The human equivalent would be to concuss another using a bludgeoning object like a bat or club and consuming them regardless of if they were dead from the first blow or not. Aliens are very weak to mental attacks.
Recollection ~ Ai releases some control on her own body. In this state of semi-awareness, Ai can preform extremely powerful illusions that have a more potent effect on other human beings. Her resolve becomes more powerful and her body is pumped full of adrenaline. At the same time, however, she is in constant pain, or at least thinks she is, and sometimes finds it difficult not to scream or panic. This is Ai's equivalent of Hyper Dying Will mode, whereas instead of turning calm, she turns hysterical. Ai avoids using this at all costs.
Holocaust ~ Ai's ultimate attack. It can only be used in Recollection mode. Everybody in the immediate vicinity, including Ai, becomes encompassed by an extremely powerful illusion which retells the memory of a true hell on Earth. Getting hit by this attack is the equivalent of being his with an atomic bomb and living.
♠ Weapon: She uses no physical weapons.
♠ Main Box Weapon: Corvo di Nebbia - A Mist Raven. A modified version of the Mist Crow box weapon, it has a large 'third eye' on it's chest. It often acts as a scout for Ai and can also completely cloak itself and others with it's cloaking ability. It's only attack (besides incessant pecking) is called 'Strike Feather', where it fires feathers at it's enemies like darts. Using Mist Flames, they tend to 'weld' themselves onto their target. Also, the Mist Raven is known to have extremely high intelligence, matching that of Dolfine di Piogga, and thus can use telepathy with Ai and can use the Brain Coating ability, letting it communicate with other box weapons and create synchronized attacks. It has the potential for Cambio Forma, but Ai has never attempted the technique before.
♠ Sub-Box Weapon: Nebbia di Malocchio - A box weapon based off the Malocchio Hell Ring, originally in Mukuro's possession. Opening it would release a beast consisting of many cords and eyeballs, much like her own. And it's not just a monster, it's a brain, a supercomputer. It's more beastly than it is intelligent though.
♠ Extra Box Weapons: She has yet to receive any other box weapons.
