Character Information
Appearance: Miyu is a slender young woman of pale complexion. She has long limbs, one of which--the left arm--is a cybernetic prosthetic. Tattoos run down the left side of her body, the imagery includes scales, octupi, and runny ink spilled from a quill. Strawblonde hair frames her youthful face, with soft features, though her predatory gaze and the asymmetrical, mulit-colored make-up she favors lend her a chaotic appearance. On the field she favors a scantily-clad appearance, showing off her various tattoos and cybernetics underneath black cloth and red strings, and subsequently striking fear into the unfortunate enemies that get a glimpse of her. In contrast to her scant outfit, she wears a bulky helmet with a heavy collar attached to it.
Personality: Miyu is a firm believer in authenticity and grace. She values beauty in all aspects of life, from people to landscapes, and considers those who are not true to "their own personal beauty" to be weak and untrusthworthy. Though she is certainly willing to make exceptions, should a man earn her respect or admiration, Miyu loosely believes in female superiority, both physically as well as mentally. She herself is a quick-witted, intelligent individual, not one to shy away from proving her strong-will, knowledge, or simply the bauty of her own appearance; Miyu takes pride in every last aspect of herself. Despite all of this, she is not a boastful person, only "stepping up" to a situation when she feels challenged.
Background: Miyu grew up in the streets of Tokyo, poor and almost orphaned, her parents negelectful . Early on, she admired the Shimada clan, not just in spite, but specifically for their dubious business--something that to her only proved that they were smart and could take care of themselves. Barely scraping by, she was eventually recruited by a criminal organization that operated in the shadows of both the Yakuza as well as the Shimada Clan, called Malchip. As Miyu would later find out, Malchip targeted young and impressionable girls, trying to condition them to be alluring assassins, in order to use them to get close to--and take out--important Japanese businessmen as well as criminal competitors. It is during her time with Malchip, that Miyu received various tattoos in order to fit a certain mold the organization wanted to have at their disposal.
Miyu, disgusted upon eventually finding out the truth about her purpose, feigned her ignorance to the plot. Determined to never be poor and on the streets again, and even moreso determined to never let a man use her again in such ways, she used her training to gain access to the organization's labratory, where she stole an experimental tool called Obsidium Silk--an ultra sturdy, barely visible substance that mimicked spider silk, and was capable of cutting even solid materials. Upon attaining the equipment, she fled the area, hiding from the eyes of the organization, and began to work as somewhat of a mercenary. Instead of aiding heartless people in their murderous, greedy endeavours, she took to vigilantism, working for those striving to expose criminals to the public. More than a few corporations around the globe found their dirty laundry showcased to the world, all courtesy of Silkthread.

Fighting Style: Silkthread's abilities are almost exclusively centered around the Obsidium Silk Technology. The extremely fine Silk is stored within a small chamber on her wrists, and dispensed through the fingertips of her modified glove. Obsidium Silk is extremely sturdy as well as thin, effectively functioning like spider silk with potent cutting properties. Silkthread fights with the motions of a dancer, merging fury and grace whenever she lashes out her lethal Obsidium Silk strings.
Abilities
Passive: Catwalk - Silkthread's balance and skill--and her coated soles--allow her to traverse her own attached Obsidium Silk strings.
- Primary Fire: Obsidium Silk Whip - Silkthread keeps her Obsidium Silk connected to her dispenser glove, being able to slash at, whip, and even choke enemies. Due to the high velocity with which Silkthread can move the strings around, they will inflict incisions upon making contact and deal increasing damage should they wrap around the target's body or limbs for prolonged periods of time.
- Secondary Fire: Steel Web - Silkthread fires her strings on two seperate points, creating an invisible path between the two anchor points. Though Obsidium Silk itself is extremely sturdy, the anchor points are prone to damage, and can be removed from the attached surface by damaging them.
Announcement: "Two things you can't run away from: the truth, and me."
- Primary Ability: Tripwire - Silkthread places a trap attached to two walls. Whenever an enemy walks into the Tripwire, the Obsidium Silk wraps around their body, immobilizing them for a short period of time.
- Secondary Ability: Who Said That? - Silkthread places a small audio recorder behind enemy territory to confuse enemies by playing audio cues.
- Ultimate: Arabesque Guillotine - Silkthread performs a sequence of graceful acrobatics, hurling Obsidium Silk around, and unleashing a cutting fury in the process. As Silkthread dances across the battlefield, enemies in her path will receive high damage due to the high momentum of the Obsidium Silk.
I love this ninja-esque character! If you can just put how much damage each attack does so I understand how strong your character is against squishies, tanks, etc.
Apart from that, she's accepted. I trust you'll find a way to bring her into the introduction, cause the introduction will occur at a nanobiotechnology conference in the New York area. Not sure if your character would be interested in nanobiotechnology, but perhaps either Reaper or something else in the area.
