Height: 5 feet/152.4 cm
Weight: 95lbs/43.1kg
Clothing/appearance:
Emi isn't the most imposing person you will ever see. Her features are delicate and smooth without blemishes. It also doesn't help that she is paler looking adding to the impression that she appear weak and pale. Even her slow paced walking further causes the misconception. She isn't the neatest person, her hair is naturally straight but still manages to appear uncombed and generally a mess.
Her choice in clothing is a preference to warmer or bigger sets. One of her usual set of clothing is a large black coat with gold trims and buckles lining it. It allows her to secure itself around her body when she needs it to be. although usually it is loose. Below she prefers wearing a pair of shorts and boots that extend to her knees with more buckles to either secure or let loose. Her blades rest in the folds of her jacket, strapped to her belt and in reach of her right hand.
Inventory/accessories:
To make things simple she carries her money and card in her pockets.

Personality:
Emi is a quiet person that people's first impression label her as shy. To be honest she doesn't mind getting into other people's face and talking but she simply doesn't have anything to relate to them. When she speaks she states plainly what is on her mind. If she doesn't like what you're doing, she will say exactly that. It makes her seem rather aloof to other people.
Along with her quiet and blunt likeness lies a rather indifferent and simplistic girl. She tries to avoid trouble if possible and that means detaching herself from other people. So honestly she just doesn't care for other people because they never do anything for her to care about them. Although she tries to avoid other people, if they were to push harder it is easy to root themselves in her consciousness.
In the end if Emi doesn't have a reason to speak she won't. If she takes liking to others, it will most likely be reflected to seeing her more often or have her following them every now and then. She is rather protective of those she become attached to which is a reason for her following. This is also reflected in her rather simplistic nature. She doesn't like complicated messes and fluffing of words. People tell her what to do and she will either do it or not. If she feels that she gains enough from the offer she will most likely go along without further words.
Likes:
- Snacks: She really likes sweet ones but any will satisfy her.
- Practicing: Going through the routine isn't just beneficial in the long run but also keeps her head clear.
- Sleeping: Rest is good for the body and takes whatever chance she can to sleep.
- Alone Time: It is a time that allows her to think and mull over on her thoughts. That and there is no chance of causing trouble.
Dislikes:
- Getting Involved: She doesn't want to be attached to other people or get dragged into their problems. She has enough on her dish.
- Bitter Food: She just doesn't have taste for bitter things.
- Complicated Messes: This can take in the form of schoolwork, flashy moves, etc. She likes to keep things simple.
- Trouble/Hassle: She doesn't like it even when it is at her fault. She tends to stay out of sight and out of mind.
Ambitions/Goals: To make sure her family never catches her brother, therefor to become the heir without hassle.
Habits/Mannerisms:
- Putting her right index finger and tapping her lips when in thought.
- Yawning every so often.
- Eating faster when agitated.
Strengths:
- Coolheaded: It isn't easy to get this girl to blow a fuse. If anything she seems to remain at a low irritated bubble in practically any situations.
- Focused: Emi can be focused on one issue or situation for however long it takes to resolve it. This allows her to concentrate for hours on end if needed.
- Quick: Despite her size she is quick on her foot and mind. If she had run through it or practiced it, she can easily bend in the flow of combat. This is the same her swing as well.
- Sturdy: Emi is capable of taking blunt hits and falls. A few punches and the like is no problem.
Weaknesses:
- Multitasking: She isn't good at balancing issues. She seems only able to focus on one thing at a time.
- People: She can react to other people's actions but she can't read them. She doesn't know how to speak to other people or interact with them properly.
- Strength: She doesn't have much physical strength so she is dependent on her speed during fights.
- Lazy: Emi is easy to goad into quitting things. As long as she is fighting for herself it doesn't take much convincing for her to leave. She simply likes to take the easier way out and avoid what hassle she can.

<> Sacred Item <>
Original Owner: Tachibana Genchiyo
Clan: Tachibana
History:
Genchiyo was the head Tachibana clan for a period of time during the Sengoku Period. She was the daughter of Tachibana Dōsetsu and came to power because his father had no sons therefore dictating her to be head after his death. After approximately five years she married Tachibana Muneshige.
Sacred Item: Wakizashi
Activate Ability 1:
Flurry Strikes: Quick rapid succession of attacks is used with the blade. This is a move that allows a series of quick but otherwise weak stabbing attacks. Due to the rabid nature of the attack it is only useful for enemies in front. There are limits though due to the body of the user.
Activate Ability 2:
Sinful Rage: The blade appears to dissipate around the user. It induces whatever anger or stress within the user but also enhances their strength beyond their normal capacity. It reinforces the user's strength by 20% until it wears off after 3 posts.
Activate Ability 3:
Guiding Blade: The user sheaths the blade and quickly unsheathe to strike out at the enemy. The blade would then leave the user's hand and disappear. When it disappears it would reappear behind an enemy and strike from behind to catch them off guard. It allows her to use her other blade to distract the enemy. The problem is, it is possible to dodge the attack and even strike the user if not careful. However the blade will not stop until it pierced enemy flesh but it can cause her more damage if the enemy manages to dodge them all.
Passive 1:
Light Feet - While moving with the blade drawn, the user almost appears to walk almost on air. This can used in a variety of ways but mainly as a means of easier movement for the user.
Passive 2:
Slow Burn: While the weapon is sheathed the user's stamina is increased allowing the user to run for longer periods of time or maintain a steady barrage of strikes. However the amount of stamina increased is only relative to the user's current stamina such that it only gives her 25% increase in stamina. For example if she can run for ten seconds at the time then her stamina will only increase so that she can run at 12.5 seconds than her usual. She must have the blade at hand and it deteriorates along with the user.
Overburst Color:
Fuchsia
Overburst Attack:
Bladed Chaos: Emi's blade disappears before various metal shards appear around the enemy. They stab into one enemy coming from all sides in the same manner as shrapnel grenades exploding from all sides. Each shard of the blade deals very little damage but there are perhaps hundreds of pieces coming at the same time.

Ryota Tokiwa - Emi's father who is very strict on his teachings and likes to have heavy hand on what happens around the household.

History:
Emi is the last child born into the Tokiwa household. They weren’t a big name family but they had enough pull and power that they are responsible for a small bit of land. Her father, Ryota Tokiwa, always strived for excellence in the name of the family. This has caused a number of troubles for the family as a whole but Emi had little to worry about. Her brother Kenshin always had the responsibility thrust onto him. Even with so much pressure on his shoulders, Kenshin had the most care for his little sister.
Kenshin would always play with her when she is sad or even when she had no intentions to play. He was someone she could always rely and lean on. In return she tried to support him whenever she can and looked up to him like an idol. She even took lessons with the blade as a means to hopefully earn his recognition. Of course she never did or had the time to enjoy their time together for long. There had always been an edge in his eyes no matter what she did.
By the time Emi turned ten Kenshin ran away from the household. He left no note, leaving the family katana in front of his father’s room. Of course his parents searched desperately for him, to drag him back to his duties. It was perhaps Emi’s own intuition that her brother would not do things without reason. To the person who had been so kind to her, she decided to take over his responsibility for him.
At first her parents were against the notion of letting her take over the household. As the days dragged on and it became clear that finding Kenshin was near impossible they had to relent. So they began to break her down, step by step. She was treated differently than the usual manner. Before she had been mostly left to her own devices but now she was forced into the same routine her brother went through. Days had been focused solely on training her for taking over the household.
She learned quickly not to talk back to her parents from then on. She remained silent, receiving what lessons she can and also pain for not doing them properly. Juggling so many things at once was difficult for her to handle and still is; it was a wonder she survived. By the time she came of age to go to high school she was accepted into Bugei Academy. Her parents were elated but she felt none of the enthusiasm.
They had taught her on how to act around others but she never took it to heart. It wasn’t like they provided her a dummy to act towards at all times. She never liked the idea of having to use other people’s position for your own gain. If she did anything it should be for herself, by herself. Plus with the lack of communications she was granted from the beginning of the training, she simply had little to no contact with others to begin with.
Emi did things in strides and didn’t bother with other people. The most she did with other students was when she was forced to work with them. She avoided people like they were annoying pests. This went on even as she stepped into the third year of school. Of course she was surprised by the curriculum but eventually she adapted for the most part. School was just another hurdle for her to overcome.
