APPEARANCE AND PERSONALITY

Appearance:
A pretty, slim and athletic young woman with Asian features and yet rather a few abstract aspects to her appearance, Kira is an attractive young woman with long and naturally blond hair, who has her own sense of style and is bold and unapologetic in her outlay. Carrying a noticeable tone to her body like a sports star or fitness geek, it is clear that she has the tone of an active young woman who makes the effort to keep herself in great shape, and yet isn’t without a pleasing curve here or there. The face of the girl a pleasing, slightly impish set of features, Miss Kozuki has a slightly mischievous visage with her almond shaped eyes as well as her sharp jawline and nose, with full lips that just beg to be highlighted with a nice colour.

Azure eyed for the most part, Kira possesses irises which have a bright blue tone like the sky on a bright day, and they can look quite dazzling when caught by the light and are framed by a set of long, dark lashes which can make a wink or flutter seem to hold such promise, though also rather cold in the wrong circumstances. Defying usual conventional image with her unusual features as well, one will note the fact that her ears sit atop her head rather than at the sides and are pointed and covered in short and incredibly soft fur like those of a fox, and she also can boast tapering lines on her cheeks like whiskers and slightly longer and more pronounced canine and premolar teeth. Finally, she sports a long, fluffy and silky soft tail which is predominantly golden like her hair and ears, but has a nice tufty whiteness toward the tip.

Those golden locks rather long, they reach all the way down to her mid back when left to their own devices, they have a surprisingly straight and sleek nature which features only a very slight curling toward the tips, and in which she often chooses to temporarily colour to spice her image up further. The natural hair colour she possesses seeming to be a product of her quirk, the rest of her family seem to have dark hair whilst hers is naturally fair and bright and transfers into the furry covering which washes over her ears seamlessly.

Adaptive in terms of her hairstyles, though on the whole she will tend to wear it loose, Kira has enough sense of fashion and ability to mould her mane into almost any appearance, and sometimes enjoys a giddy sense of irony in wearing her tresses in braids or buns which are more typical and traditional in the land she comes from, or might let it all hang down and add the allure of long, framing curtains around her face for her own sense of amusement. Toying with her bangs frequently and sometimes having them long and flowing whilst other times short and a bit messy, the image of this vixen changes with the day, but then since this seems to be an aspect of her quirk one can hardly blame her for being a little more flexible with how she carries herself.

Highly stylish when it comes to her personal taste and with a strong fondness for designer items, one could describe her fashion sense as flirty but not lacking for class as she favours items that are intricate and pretty, and while she definitely enjoys wearing racy numbers also is skilled enough in designing her ensembles that she knows sometimes less is more. On the whole favouring tight items and not afraid to wear a sinfully short skirt or show a little flesh all the same, Miss Kozuki dresses in dark colours though sometimes adds a little flourish of brightness here and there for contrast, though with her frame and body confidence it would be fair to say she could make almost anything look good if she wanted to. That being said a woman who knows how to dress herself for any occasion, she is more than happy to defy her usual showy style for the sake of a job, and can make her appearance reflect all kinds of roles and personalities if she chooses to.

Fond of jewellery and not afraid to show that even with her unusual appearance, one will note that her delicate and perky ears are pierced at the outer corners like normal girls would the lobes, and when showing these off she often likes to wear large and flashy items in them like gems or even large hoops and other items. A master of makeup, Kira likes a little lip colour in provocative shades of red or purple or even a metallic gold, and enjoys cats eye or ironically enough fox eye makeup around her eyes, but like her clothing knows how to be subtler with her applications in order to respond to the role she needs.

Disguised Form

Seeming to have concocted a regular disguise for herself that looks more normalized and harder to associate with her villain identity, the ingenious Miss Kozuki has created a false identity for herself which has her own distinct characteristics, including a quirk she can fake through her bodily control and mimicry. In many ways resembling how she might idealize herself without her innate foxy features, while she does not mimic her natural appearance exactly and even emphasizes a more ‘western’ kind of ethnicity so as to throw off those who might try and link them together, whilst using this diguise she is slim and fair of features with long flowing lilac hair and magenta eyes. Facially looking somewhat refined and delicate, Miss Kozuki can tend to hint at her true visage with a high set of cheekbones that provides her with a sharp and slightly pointed angle of her jaw, and with the slight narrowness of her gaze gives a mildly ‘fox-like’ look to her visage and adds an air of sophistication and youthful maturity to her looks overall.

Tall and slender and yet somewhat curvy in her choice of figure, Kira possesses a frame that one might expect from an old fashioned movie star or model, with her slim waist leading into broad hips and thighs to give a kind of physique that many might envy or admire. Exploiting a subtle but noticeable tone in her stomach, shoulders and thighs to highlight her buxom build, preferring to exemplify a shapelier frame over something overtly sporty, though much like her facial features she is a little ‘free spirited’ in her choice and may go more trim or curvy as her mood demands.

Sporting very long and very silky hair of heliotropic colour, this mix of pink and purple as well as the near knee-length span can make her readily stand out in a crowd, especially when Miss Kozuki tends to leave it loose and flowing like some sort of cloak or something. Not opposed to binding it up of course but more often than not letting her show off side shine through in the manner in which she wears it, one may observe her mimicry of her fake quirk through it since Kira has learned to use her quirk to manipulate it to a weak degree, imitating what appears to be a largely untrained mutation quirk that is rather different to her own in order to throw people off her trail by moving it around spontaneously as if it was as mobile as any of her natural limbs, if not more so.

Personality:
An intelligent, assertive and largely independent young woman, Kira Kozuki is the type of girl who has a kind of confidence and charisma that could easily set her up as a kind of ‘queen bee’ in any situation, and actually enjoys that role really. Enjoying attention and popularity to a great degree, to those who dote on and admire her she can be warm and very kittenish but her personality can do a complete one-eighty when it comes to those who have caused her offense; becoming ruthless, aggressive and rather cold hearted as well. Ultimately though a girl who is more passionate than she lets on, while she often tries to be guarded and wear a cool and composed mask beneath those still waters rages a volcano which when provoked can become just as nasty as the metaphor might imply, and perhaps even more so.

Clever and rather witty with a great fondness for irony and humour, befitting her quirk she can be quite the mischief maker when she wants to, but whether that impishness is a harmless prank or something more severe and damaging tends to be up to the people involved and the situation. Poking fun at people something which comes naturally to her, she has learned to pick up on the tics that might set people off and is generally quite restrained in that fact, which is evidenced in how brutal she can be when the gloves come off so to speak.

Readily capable of going for the jugular if she chooses to but usually preferring to keep things light, despite her criminal career and some of the nastier moments involved for the most part she prefers to take the ‘easy’ approach than the hard one, prizing diplomacy and common benefit over all other things. Well, kind of. In her eyes running off with your money but leaving you with your life might be something she would consider a ‘mutually beneficial agreement’ in her eyes, though ultimately her experience with and distaste for needless violence and death is something which adds temperance to the character of this temptress, and tends to make her more diplomatic and compromising than some might expect of her.

Flamboyant and very, very flirtatious when given half a chance, in spite of the more abstract elements of her appearance or even sometimes because of them Kira has been wholly confident in her looks for a long time, and is more than used to taking advantage of her image and charm to get what she wants. Deceptive and rather manipulative, through years of shady dealings she seems to have developed a sharp mind for sensing the ‘angle’ she needs to use to get what she wants from a person or situation, and is happy to bounce between the role of a temptress to something that appears more guileless as the situation changes, making her appear somewhat chameleonic in personality.

Tending to have shown rather a precocious edge to her personality ever since she was a little girl, Kira is the sort of girl who is never all that impressed or intimidated by age or authority, and instead seems to largely show a kind of ‘survival of the fittest’ type mentality to her lifestyle. Knowing all too well how cutthroat the world can be due to her various dealings, she is pragmatic and worldly to the point of condescension toward those who seem naïve, and yet strangely holds a secret sense of admiration toward those who stick to high minded ideals.

This perhaps a result of her upbringing, not only was she raised in a rather humble environment but she also experienced her fair share of abuse and discrimination due to her obvious quirker status, which she still holds plenty of bitterness over and in some ways perhaps even wishes she could find some way to ‘right’ it. Believing herself to have been far too corrupted by her experiences to ever be anything close to good and yet envying those who have remained firm in their convictions and morality, while she would likely deny it this hints that a flickering little candle of righteousness remains in her heart to this day, though there are times when it is hard to spot, especially for her.

Privately nursing more than a little insecurity and a big dose of loneliness as well which is probably why she feels she needs to be so guarded, despite the more duplicitous elements of her personality one would be hard pressed to call her hopelessly irredeemable, and is simply a woman who is as complicated as the global climate is right now with quirks on the rise. Fond of the companionship she has been offered by her so called ‘sugar daddies’ even if she would scarcely admit it with most, while she accepts some have been bastards, others have inspired a great degree of affection from her, and she has been rather disappointed to part their company when push came to shove.

Always one who is happy to bolt when things get difficult however, as a woman who has effectively been ‘on the run’ since her teens escape and survival are always her primary aim no matter the situation. That craving she has for comfort in company most often manifesting in the trysts and affairs she has on impulse, the want the young woman has knows no bounds and her lack of scruples means she will happily engage married and otherwise committed partners if they catch her fancy, and might even be rather the bad girl in this regard. Quickly learning that a quick fling with a wealthy but married ‘patron’ was a nice way to achieve a temporary sense of luxury, not only does the concept add a strange sense of security to her but also a sense of satisfaction for her ego when she steals someone who belongs to another, though perhaps a psychologist might propose that there is also elements at work here which hint at her fear of commitment.

Terrified of getting tied down and yet craving connection, that latter element has been stimulated most recently and brought her want for comfort and intimacy into greater focus for Kira, and so she has opted to seek what she desires out by abstract means. Still rather too fearful of getting tangled in something romantic but lamenting the distance she has from her family and her sister in particular, while the growing criminal scene in Japan is certainly a juicy bonus for her to exploit the principal reason she has chosen to return to her homeland is to repair that relationship, and get to know the niece she hasn’t seen in a very, very long time.

Ironically enough nursing her biggest insecurity and feelings of inferiority when it comes to her more modest sibling, while she is flashy, youthful, beautiful and has plenty of means to get what she wishes, in an odd way Miss Kozuki feels a swell of envy for the simple and loving life Kaya has, though she would never admit it. Looking up to her big sister since she was little, she admires the resolve of the woman and her determination even if she might at times deride her for being ‘dull and domestic’, and if someone offered her the chance to swap lives well… She might just take it!

HISTORY

Born into a humble lifestyle as the youngest daughter of the Kozuki family by quite the wide margin of seven years, to her future satisfaction it had to be said that when it came to both looks and her quirk Kira inherited plenty from her foxy mother, though didn’t begrudge her daddy for that either. In many ways enjoying the fact that she was so much younger than her sister because it only enhanced that feeling she was the ‘baby’ and a little princess as well, even when she was little she was something of a show off, loving to draw the attention of her parents and her big sister toward her and delighting in their attention. The youngest years of her life perhaps those which she remembers as her happiest, she loved living in the little home of the Kozuki and being surrounded by love even if it felt like she had little else, but unfortunately the steady march of time would not be terribly kind to her after this.

Always kind of loving her cute little ears and the other features she possessed because of her mutation because they reminded her of her mother and a big sister she adored, and especially so since the fair haired impact of her quirk made her similarities to these women a little less obvious, unfortunately as she went out into the world Kira discovered that not everyone would treat her so fond because of them. Quirks beginning to steadily become an accepted fact in the world when she was little but unfortunately there was still plenty of discrimination to be found with minimal effort, children and adults alike would tease her for her looks, with the former calling her weird and saying she was like a ‘dog’ and the latter perhaps worse.

Foxes, or Kitsune, not having a wholly positive reputation in Japanese culture and that superstition reflected in the attitudes she received, even some who didn’t outright insult her seemed suspicious of the girl because of her image, and then there were the things she heard about her family. Cruel and wicked rumours abounding as a result of that mythical repute that her mother and sister were some kind of demonic spawn or something close to that, even her father was derided for supposedly being ‘bewitched’ by a so called freak, and even at a young age people would gossip about her matriarch as if she was some kind of man eating maniac who would churn her way through the populace if given half a chance, and how her daughters would likely be the same. She wasn’t at all of course but no amount of assurance could fully relieve the worry of a girl who was more sensitive and insightful than she seemed, especially when she and her fellow foxy folk were being shunned simply because of their race.

On the whole it rather the unpleasant experience at times growing up, by far the worst example was when Kira was nine years old, and some intrepid classmates decided they would do her the favour of ‘fixing’ her. Left alone without supervision when one of them managed to take up a pair of pruning shears with the intent on hacking off her ear and tail she possessed to ‘fix’ her, Miss Kozuki remembers how a couple of the boys pinned her down whilst the other menaced her with the instrument, and this stress seemed enough to trigger a sort of feral response within her, becoming the ‘beast’ so to speak. Initially assumed to have only inherited those foxy features the fright of the femme and that survival instinct pushed her to act in a ferocious fashion, the teacher returned to find the people responsible hurled across the classroom and the girl herself a hissing mess in the middle of it, having regressed to a state where she would spit out foxfire and had even encircled herself in a ring of it to ward off anyone around her until she finally calmed down.

Sufficed to say this incident having a rather prominent impact on her career as a student, though she faced no criminal charges due to the fact she used her power accidentally in a deed of self-defence, it was decided by all that it would be better if she moved schools due to the impact it had on everyone. Teachers and anyone who she was once friendly with now frightened of the femme and the parents of those she had hurt had threatened to take legal action against her family and the school if she remained a ‘threat’ to their children, Kira was transferred as a result to a place on completely the opposite side of town, and honestly was rather confused by the whole issue. Most assuredly the victim in her own eyes and acting accidentally and only because of provocation, added to that feeling was the fact that her powers seemed wonderful and warm and there to keep her safe, yet everyone acted like they were a bad thing. Like SHE was a bad thing! It was very disconcerting for a little girl, and seemed the biggest impetus for her gradually falling in with the wrong crowd when she grew older.

The new school she attended no more welcoming of a feisty fox girl either and that especially the case when rumours flew around of what she did at her old one, the truth of the matter didn’t seem important so Kira ended up somewhat isolated and rather lonely as well, taking solace only in her family, for a time at least. Naturally no one at home blaming her for what happened and them all rather sympathetic to her as well, she loved how daddy seemed to dote on her even more as a result of the rottenness she had been through, but that didn’t last forever unfortunately. It seemed someone was on the way to steal her ‘place’ away, and from the most unlikely source at that.

Admiring and even envying her big sister up until the age of twelve but much of that changing when she came home in love and with child, though Kira was initially intrigued about having a baby in the house when little ‘Amai’ was born, her curiosity soon turned to resentment when the reality of the situation hit her. Suddenly everyone all too happy to fuss over the baby and the mother and the father whilst leaving Miss Kozuki out of the picture as it were, her love for Kaya steadily became more twisted as time went on as she resented her for taking her focus away. It was childish, sure, but she was only ten, and seemed to also contribute to her further fall from grace.

Perhaps in some way wanting to repeat the more positive aspects of her ordeal from earlier years by acting out again as she began to enter her teenage years, though Kira had been rather reserved with her abilities since the incident as her unrest grew so too did her desire to show off with them, and quickly she began to draw negative attention toward herself as a result. Flouting quirk laws to show off with her power in a kind of ‘any press is good press’ type of mentality, she frequently got in trouble at school for using her quirk in provocative fashions and pranks, and had many conversations with despairing teachers and staff at how a ‘clever girl like you’ was ‘throwing her future away’ by acting like this. It didn’t work the way she intended of course, and her parents seemed more exasperated by her rebellious attitude, but in one way or another Miss Kozuki did kind of get what she wanted.

Those acts of disobedience seeming to draw attention of similar trouble causers, delinquent boys and girls began to respond positively to the deeds that Kira performed and encouraged her to do more, as well as pulled her into a lifestyle which only seemed to confirm the warnings she got from her teachers. Flitting off from home to meet up with what felt like the few people in her life who seemed to actually like her and getting involved in misdeeds like trespass and shoplifting, Miss Kozuki began an adventurous dalliance into the life of the criminal, and rather began to enjoy it really.

Loving the chance to use the gifts she had been given as she wanted to without restriction, the situation snowballed over time from simple mischievous misdemeanours to something more serious. Once a cheeky but clumsy thief who took what she wanted when she could, as she got older things grew darker, and soon she was involved in rather more serious situations, and at the age of fifteen she even established herself a signature little crime of her own. Always pretty and gradually using that to get what she wanted from boys and even so precocious that she would respond to certain criticisms from her teachers with lascivious lines and winks, the crescendo of this growing confidence in her sexuality was how she would linger in bad districts in her uniform to take advantage of fetishists whom she would rob, and threaten to reveal their perversion if they reported her. Though even that wasn’t the worst thing she had ever done.

Barely paying attention in school and not exactly achieving stellar marks when she graduated by the age of eighteen, at the first given opportunity she had Kira even left home to live with a particularly shady boyfriend and partner in crime who was a good five years older than her, and for a time felt such fondness for him that she even thought she had, like her sister, found her happily ever after. But unfortunately, she hadn’t, and she had just deluded herself into believing that.

That giddy puppy love and the thrill of engaging in crime together certainly a powerful intoxicant but something that seemed to always make one stimulate greater demand, increasingly Kira became discomforted by the acts she was becoming involved in, the violence especially, and the expectations that her other half had of how she would do these. By the age of twenty having had enough and beginning to distance herself from him, she thought about returning home with her tail between her legs but honestly felt like she had burned that bridge too much to do so, and so instead set out on her own, or tried to at first.

The once beloved boyfriend objecting to him leaving her, a sense of pride and possessiveness taking such an act as an offense, he tracked Miss Kozuki down and decided that he would have to ‘beat some sense into her’, and consequently ambushed her in an alleyway and gave her a black eye and a broken rib or two to start with and intended more if he was given the chance. However, she did not let him. Once again finding her fear getting the better of her, maybe the man had underestimated her strength or assumed she would be too afraid to fight back, but she did, with everything she had. Seething with rage and in pain she subdued him with her quirk and yet did not stop. She snapped once more and overpowered him, pinning him down and bathing him in foxfire until his whole body was good and crispy before the anger died down, and she returned to her senses.

Panicked for certain and running away from the scene without a second thought to leave him to die, all too quickly a tremendous sense of guilt set in for the girl but that seemed to be overpowered by her thought to protect herself. One again she had been the victim and made a mistake, but just like last time she doubted many people would see it that way, so she decided to run away while she could rather than own up to her crime. There had been no witnesses, and if he was dead he couldn’t pin the crime on her, so she ran and ran to find something safe and would end up a world away because of that.

Still too afraid to meet with her parents but not wanting to leave the country without a single word, though she was terrified and in a great deal of pain because of her injuries Kira made herself look her best and made contact with her sister, telling him that her newest boyfriend was taking her overseas to enjoy the world and not to worry about her at all, and then left her behind to pursue new opportunities around the globe. Initially landing in the US and using the skills she had accumulated as well as a few fresh tricks to keep herself afloat, though she was young many admired and coveted both her skills and her good looks, so Miss Kozuki ended up pursuing quite a few lines of work as a result.

Joining the teams of thieves and con artists in order to make a quick buck whilst also using her good looks to secure herself fresh sugar daddies and the like to keep herself comfortable, Kira began to branch out in new and ambitious ways. Certainly wanting to keep herself independent after all that had happened and wanting to exploit every advantage she had, though many might have expected a little Japanese girl to be meek and mild she showed she was anything but, and even began to indulge her skills in seduction and desire for control to explore a career as a dominatrix for a time.

Honestly enjoying the talent she had for giving people what she had and putting her delinquent past behind her for a more high-minded criminal position instead, while some she was happy to dominate on in a doting way she also enjoyed the privilege she was afforded through shamelessly exploring the fetishes of the wealthy, and doubling up on the return she got by using those dirty little secrets to her advantage. Blackmail such an ugly concept but useful in turn, she made sure that those who had wealth and influence and the good fortune to share a little bit of pleasure knew that they should keep her sweet, or risk their lives falling down around them.

However, as much fun as that was she had gained a taste for more exciting crimes as well, and as such made sure to indulge her desire for thrilling heists and acts of burglary, in some cases simply for her own sense of fun. There more than a few times that she might steal a priceless painting or antique of some snooty collector who had snubbed her only to practically discard the item after she had it, folk would learn one way or another she was not the sort you upset, or at least not without some significant loss down the line in one way or another. Nothing seeming to compare to that rush she got when she pulled off a nice caper, that sense of relief and release was like a drug that she would crave in her quiet moments, and prompt her to do little acts of ‘mischief’ like returning to her shoplifting roots to assuage in times that were slow.

Though even as she lived her jet set lifestyle Kira couldn’t help but end up feeling lonely, and found herself refraining from her glamorous lifestyle a little with thoughts of what she had left behind. Sometimes found on balconies at lavish parties by herself looking up at the sky and wondering what her sister and her family were doing now, more and more she felt pulled toward returning to the land that had birthed her, and opting to use the internet and some of the connections she had to investigate the people she left behind. Finding all about her sister and her sweet shop and even anonymously ordering several overseas deliveries of confectionary as a result, she also caught wind of the cute little woman the baby she had once hated had grown into, and felt an immense sense of regret for how childishly she had acted when the girl was born.

This situation building over the course of a year during her downtime from jobs and frisky antics so that one day after falling out with her latest boyfriend she opted to take the plunge, Kira packed up her belongings from Prague and heading to the airport she booked a first class ticket to Japan and returned to her roots, looking to reconnect with the family she had walked away with long ago. Quietly afraid of what might be waiting for her of course but hoping that time would have at least mended some of the fences she had left behind, she has also noticed the booming criminal enterprises which seem to be building in the land as well, so expects she might be able to further her career at the same time as explores that curiosity and longing she feels for her family, even if the idea of being rejected again quietly terrifies her…
