<> Self <>
Personality:
Generally, Sayuri is a rather outgoing female. One can usually confide within her the most secret of secrets and will never tell a soul. For once, that is just plain rude and too, she loves to know people have trust in her. A smile will bright up everyone's face and she will be on her way to let people know she is there.
Not only is Sayuri a good friendly figure for her classmates, but she is also relatively versed in mediating groups of people. Her listening skills are second to none and any problem will get resolved no matter what. Sayuri will make it so something is figured out in a week, if not less.
However, do not let this easy-going nature fool you. She tends to hold her emotions in until she snaps. And when she snaps, oooh, that is not very pretty. IN this state, instead of one to go seek advice out from another, she will act irrationally - listening to no one that gets in her way. Her mood becomes cold and distant, almost the exact opposite of what people would know.

Ambitions/Goals:
As of right now, Sayuri only wants to pass school with flying colors to get into a great college. What she will be doing from there, she is not exactly sure yet. Maybe a teacher or something, but even that is up in the air.
Habits/Mannerisms:
- Folds in hands together when she wants to leave or get out of a conversation.
- Looks to the sky when she is listening to longer conversation; it helps her focus.
- Sways her shoulders back and forth when nervous.
Strengths:
- Good Listener: Enjoys listening to what others have to say. This helps her in figuring out what problems are arising from both parties. When in major discussion or fights, this serves invaluable.
- Flexible Body: Considering she is part of the track club Sayuri's Body is rather flexible when it comes to moving around. It might not help with how fast she moves, but she can slide through smaller spaces.
- Empathetic: Being able to relate to what her friends and strangers are talking about, it helps to relate to people. This helps her from gaining many enemies. However, that does not always mean she will not have them - but if she does, she will know where they are coming from and will be rather understanding of it.
Weaknesses:
- People Pleaser: Considering she wants everyone to stay happy, that brings her into somewhat worse situations than she wants. Having a hard time saying no has brought her into favors that she really has not want to do.
- Indecisive: Having the hardest time picking, well, anything, Sayuri gets called out constantly for taking too slow to select an answer. She tends to over think, listing out the pros and cons. Always thinking of the worst case scenario does not always help either.
- Explosive Aggression: When upset, Sayuri's temper is to the point of wanting to kill people out right. No one will be able to sedate.

<> Ancestor/Sacred item <>
Samurai Name: Ohatsu-no-kata
Clan: Toyotomi and Tokugawa
History:
Seen as the mediator between the Toyotomi and Tokugawa clans, Ohatsu went back and forth between both sides, desperately trying to keep both sides from an all out war. This came from the fact that her sisters both married into the clan's, allowing her easier access to talk to both sides. However, this only lasted until the Tokugawa defeated the Toyotomi in 1615, when her services were no longer needed.
Sacred Item: Twin Bladed Fans
Activate Ability 1: Winged Serpant: Covering her face with the fans, Sayuri will unveil her face, twirling herself around twice to give her target a minor speed buff (e.g. a faster running speed) for around twenty seconds(2 posts).
Activate Ability 2: The Lover's Kiss: Mostly known by its name, Sayuri takes both her fans, bringing them in together. Circling around her opponent, she strike with whatever the upper fan is first with small accuracy. The bottom fan will always strike second, with a much higher percentage than the upper fan – dealing damage to the target of the attack.
Activate Ability 3: The Mediator's Blessing: By holding her fans outward, Sayuri turns them outwardly away from her before thrusting her body forward and taking one step backwards. Presenting a sort of fluid dance, anyone that she deems a friendly ally will be enhanced with a heightened offensive and defensive ability.
Passive 1: Petal Mediation: For the time that Sayuri does not attack nor gets attacked, her senses are mildly improved and dodge increases slightly.
Passive 2: Graceful Swallow: When placing her feet crossed in front and focusing on her targets, her defense and dodge rate increase significantly due to preparation.
Overburst Color: Silver
Overburst Attack: Demented Marionette: Unleashing the inner emotions that Sayuri feels, a silver aura will envelop around her body, clinging to her like a second skin. Her fans will appear to grow to a slightly larger size than normal, with no reflection on their weight or her ability to maneuver. Almost being voiceless, emotionless in this state allows her to attack without hesitation, increasing accuracy and speed while attacking. The moves she uses in this form change each time, though the effects are still the same.
<> Background <>
Support: Kobayashi Utae (Mother); Kobayashi Hiroshi (Father)
History:
Kobayashi Sayuri was born in Oita on the isle of Kyushu. As the only child of her household, her parents taught her that it was best to know what to do when situations called for it. However, they never did push their beliefs on her, as her father was out too much and her mother was preoccupied with the family business to worry about her grades and such. However, despite this, Sayuri generally pushed herself – and not even having the stereotypical mother and father yelling down her back. When she was a child, this was no problem – as she never really had friends and kept to herself.
Even as a child, Sayuri would involve herself with people only when their was a dispute. In her early years, two kids were fighting over the same crayon. Her sense of wanting to help was rather baby-ish at the time and just split the crayon in half to make both happy. This would continue in other shapes and forms as she grew older. (Granted, it was getting harder than just breaking a crayon in two.)
Now that she is in high school, her personality blossomed and surrounds herself with enough people to make her feel comfortable while still doing her job as a mediator for her own personal pleasure and for a short time for a school project. It was during this time, she found out about Ohatsu and the relation she shared with her ancestor. There was a reason how she acted, her past showing why.
Asking her parents was a simple task, her mother showing her fans that were supposedly used by her and such. Sayuri still has no idea what they are used for, but she was drawn to them, wanting to learn more about Ohatsu – but that would just need to wait.
