Mizuki Matsuri (茉莉 瑞妃)
➤ Gender
Female
➤ Age | Birthday

Ringo Oginome | Mawaru Penguindrum
➤ Physical description
Mizu is a rather petite girl for her age, making her look rather doll-like with her small frame. Her hair is a chocolate brown color and cut short, almost reaching her shoulders, and her eyes are somewhere between hazel and amber, wide saucers that let her see. Mizuki still is growing and lacks womanly curves to speak of, having somewhat of a more boyish shape, and it goes without saying that her breasts are almost nothing to speak of, though you shouldn't tell her that! Mizuki often walks around with the gait of an airhead, of a ditzy girl, though her eyes sparkle with intelligence and cunning, giving her a feeling of dissonance. It's difficult to get a read of the kind of person she is simply by looking at her, and the main thing most people seem to notice primarily is her diminutive size and height, to Mizuki's dismay. Her Phantom Aura manifests as a series of threads that circle her limbs and body, all connected to her heart, representing her bondage to her illness, as well as the burden of her guilt.

Threads of Fate: Mizuki's specialty is the ability to snap threads that circle around her body at any given time, each corresponding to a certain body part. When she does so, said body part suffers intense, unbearable, burning pain and is no longer usable until the thread regrows, which takes an hour. However, anyone of her choosing suffers an equivalent ailment: for example, if she severs her eyes, someone is rendered temporarily blind and experiences intense pain where the eyes are. She can also seal limbs, if need be, or any other body part. It's a very powerful ability, but it also leaves Mizuki in severe pain and vulnerable to attack.

BIOGRAPHY
◣XXBIOGRAPHYXX◢
Mizuki was born to the Matsuri family, in Cheocho, as the youngest of three siblings. Her big brother, Natsuo, was seven at the time, and her sister, Aria, was four. Her father was a politician, but her mother was always weak and sickly. Her father was absent and rarely home, and with her mother constantly in the hospital for her heart, it left Natsuo to take care of his two younger siblings, quickly becoming the man of the family. Aria became rebellious and spiteful, even as a child, and Mizuki was left to be pampered and spoiled. Often Aria and Natsuo would come into conflict, and Mizuki would desperately try to stop the fighting, to make the family happy again.
When Mizuki turned six, her mother finally died from a fatal cardiac arrest. This prompted her father to be even more distant from everyone, retreating into his job in order to mourn and grieve for his wife. It was around this time when Mizuki was discovered to have inherited her mother's illness and was often sent to the hospital for heart palpitations and other such complications. Natsuo became her caretaker and Aria often ran away from home late at night, as if trying to deny the reality before her. Mizuki considered herself as the reason for the family being torn apart, for her siblings not getting along. Natsuo's grades suffered from always worrying about her, and Aria often got in legal trouble from pickings fights and running with dangerous people. Mizu was left to blame herself for everyone's suffering. Due to her time in the hospital, Mizu befriended the daughter of the owner, Yua, and the two became fast friends.
In an attempt to remedy the situation, at ten, Mizuki started following Aria around late at night, to make sure she couldn't cause too much trouble and get arrested, while also emotionally distancing from Natsuo in order for him to concentrate on his schoolwork. Aria decided to show Mizuki various places where she liked to hang out, including the Elysium Arcade and a night club she knew how to sneak into, though had enough sense to not let Mizu drink or eat anything. The sisters bonded late at night, and Aria stopped fighting with Natsuo at home, even attending school more often. Natsuo himself understood what Mizuki was doing and focused more on school work. Mizuki befriended one boy in particular, by the name of Kaz, the two being like little siblings to the rest of the delinquents.
Then, it happened. During one night excursion, when Mizuki was twelve, she suddenly saw a strange spider-like creature bearing down on her. It was then that she discovered that Aria was a medium and had been for a few years - and that she too, became a medium. Aria and Mizuki became somewhat of a team, always working together to keep people safe from the phantoms. Life went well for a while until Mizuki suddenly collapsed due to her weak heart during one fight, forcing Aria to shield her with her body. Mizuki doesn't remember what happened after that, but when she woke up two weeks later, her big sister Aria was stuck in a coma, with doctors pessimistic about her ever waking up.
That was when Mizuki decided that she wouldn't rely on anyone ever again, that she wouldn't trust anyone again, least of all herself. Out of her overwhelming guilt, Mizu ended up meeting one of Aria's ex boyfriends - an older boy by the name Satoshi Ichinose, and when he asked her out, Mizuki decided to humor him and simply let it happen, wanting to take some of Aria's pain as a way to punish herself for ruining her life. So when Mizu returned home with bruises and the like, she never told anyone. As a result, Kaz ended up picking a fight with Ichinose, and Mizuki responded by cutting him out of her life, thinking she didn't deserve his kindness. It was like a reversal: Mizuki started disassociating with her family while Aria remained in the hospital, weak and helpless. If living Aria's life the way she would've wanted was a way to repent for what happened, then Mizuki would be happy to suffer and cry alone for as long as it took. She eventually joined the Limbo Avenue club, following her big sister's footsteps to try and keep the city safe.
