♦ MENTALITY ♦
♠Skills and Powers
Regenerative healing || Thank to the Oni blood within her, Rin has the gift of instantaneous healing. Sure, the deeper wounds may take a few more minutes to heal, but because of this, it's nearly impossible to fully harm her. Unless someone possesses a weapon exclusively designed for destroying Oni that is..
Enhanced Agility/Flexibility || Once more going back to her demonic roots, Rin has jaw-dropping flexibility and agility.. especially for someone her size.
Aura Reading || Thanks to her Oni father, this Ronin has been gifted with the ability to see other's auras. Be it demon or human, Rin can tell their current emotional state, their race and if they are near their time of death... all thanks to a normally invisible glow around each individual.
Melee Weapons || Her weapon of choice, Rin has been expertly trained to deal with blades.

♠Phobia(s) and Weaknesses
Astraphobia || As long as she could remember, Rin has had this ungrounded fear of lightning and thunder.
Athazagoraphobia || The fear of being forgotten or losing one's self.. perhaps this is the phobia that resides within Rin...something of which she will never dare to speak of.
Weak sheer strength || Unfortunately, on terms of sheer strength, Rin loses every time. She just can't help it, no matter how hard she tries to bulk up..
Faint spells || Due to her aura reading, this half Oni often experiences fainting spells and immense headaches from the usage of her power. Namely if she prolongs the time spent using it.
♠Personality
At a first glance, the word most people might use to describe Rin would be “strange” No, she's not your perky, constantly happy girl that other females appear to dispel but is more of the withdrawn into her own mind, analytical type...the definition of a closed book applying beautifully to her demeanor. Because of this, very few people actually know how to (or want to) gain and captivate Rin's attention..with very few actually succeeding. Coupled with an intimidating aura, frightening abilities that surpass those of a normal human, and a shady title of ''Ronin'', it's no wonder why those considered to be "normal" are terrified of this raven-haired Oni. They just don't approach her, it's as simple as that.
Generally speaking, Rin is a very calm, solemn-looking individual with a distant, yet scrutinizing, look gleaming in her eyes..but that’s not to say that she’s unfriendly (to her comrades that is). Unlike most reserved people, Rin doesn't fully mind the others surrounding her.. in fact, she'll even try getting to know them for their mind and not their looks. Unfortunately, while she does manage to hold a conversation, this girl is usually fairly awkward to speak with. So, unless the other party excels with their words, chances are there will be more than one uncomfortable pause or an abrupt subject change.
Another interesting point about Rin is that she tends to suddenly flip personalities on whim. Especially when angered or prodded by someone else's stupidity... Her mindset is quite the ambiguous one; for the most part she is a blunt, observant and withdrawn female...but this is all quickly masked and forgotten by others when they see her darker side. The personality of her flip is that of a ruthless, merciless and calculating psychopath who has little, if any, problem in using others for her goals or for pawns. Without a shred of hesitation, Rin will resort to using her knowledge and power to ruin or even, end, another's life.. in fact, she does it almost daily.
On the note of her intelligence, this ronin may appear to project an aura of "definiteness", of self-confidence. This self-confidence, sometimes mistaken for simple arrogance by the less informed, is actually of a very specific rather than a general nature; its source lies in the specialized knowledge of the world and how she was treated as a child. When it comes to her own areas of expertise, she will be able to tell you almost immediately everything about that certain topic, to the extent of being ridiculously precise. Yet, despite this fountain of knowledge in Rin, she knows this important rule; She knows what she knows, and more importantly, she knows what she doesn't.

♠Personal History
Born from the taboo relationship of a nobleman's daughter and an Oni, Sayuri never had what was known as an "easy life". Her parents, possessing a forbidden love for one another, were refugees, elopers without a home to call their own.. both running from the law for the sake of being together. Of course, when their child was brought forth into their hectic life, there was no other choice but to slow down and disappear into hiding.. not exactly the livelihood most parents yearned for their precious treasure to hold. But even then, tucked away into the grossly encased forest of Gifu, Japan, Sayuri grew up in content, parental love embracing her.
It wasn't until she was about the tender age of three that this girl started to show early signs of her demon heritage. Suddenly, the beautiful cascade of gold, the signature of her mother, had discolored to that impossible shade of raven.. her once sky blue eyes darkening to a royal purple. A spitting image of her demon father.. an image that scared both parents to wit's end. After all, it was what they feared; her Oni blood was more dominate. So, as the years stretched on, new wariness was directed towards little Sayuri, her powers still unknown. Then she turned 5.
It was her 5th birthday that everything took a detour, the time of which her powers developed..and the news of a demon kidnapping a mother and a daughter spread. Naturally, such a tale gained significant attention from several syndicates and soon enough, they began to appear on a regular basis. Party sizes had varied, each one eager to boast about defeating such a formidable enemy.. yet, every party had failed, defeated by the hand of a demon. That is until the Kurokoi Syndicate appeared..and conquered. Before her very own eyes, Sayuri had watched as her demonic father was slaughtered, her mother confusingly disappearing from sight , and soon, she was left at their disposal. However, this particular band saw potential in the mixed blooded toddler and decided to take her under their wing, eager to train and mold her to a tool they could use.
Sayuri was trained like any other apprentice of the blade up until she reached the age of 14, hardship after hardship plaguing her. Yet, despite the loathing hate she felt towards the Kurokoi Syndicate, despite the growing distaste for who she was, Sayuri had quickly excelled and mastered each skill placed before her. Until her training stopped at 16 that was. Suddenly, a new attention was given to the Oni girl, the attention that befitted a bride. It was proclaimed that Sayuri was to become the bride of the leader's son, all training she received now considered void. The unwelcome news was apparently the snapping point for the fragile girl, the world suddenly turning black. When she finally came to, every member of the Syndicate was slaughtered, murdered in cold blood.. by her hands.
Traveling over Japan, ruthlessly slaying any opponent boorish enough to challenge her, Sayuri was given a new name by the people. "Rin", written in such a way that it meant cold and dignified, any traces of her birth name disappearing.
"This world.. it's merely a bloodstained chessboard."
