History: Kurori was born in the heart of japan in a village isolated from society high in the mountains. The village consisted of proud women of the occult who value their strength with forces most couldn't understand. Her father was a man from a neighboring village that she never knew of because her mother refused to disclose it. To her mother it didn't matter because he was as strong physically as she was magically and Kurori was born a healthy baby girl thanks to this union. He wasn't allowed to live within the village as no man was allowed but he would occasionally station himself within the forest around her village where they would meet and raise their child together. When Kurori was only eight years old she showed incredible instincts for her Witch abilities and had the physical strength to match. She studied closely with the women of her village to learn the secret of their special brand of magic and her favorites involved the bending of darkness around her. She loved them so she modeled her fighting style after the stories she heard of her father’s fighting style. This raw talent and willingness to learn made her the high hopes of her people.
As she grew up She carried out many missions for the elders of the village even assisting the older witches in some of their battles when the need was required. It was during this time that she developed a love for weaponry. Taking into consideration the wide variety of people she had to clash with and their unique weapons they showed her several types of weapons that she learned to make replicas out of darkness and she adored them all but the ones she loved best were the throwing knives and demon shurikens. With more time she practiced with summoning weapons from shadows learning how to form multiple weapons with her to use based on her situation.
After proving herself worthy on several occasions she was thought the soul protect spell for the purpose of being able to infiltrate the school that continued to send students to hunt her sisters. In all this time she had truthfully begin to question herself and what she stood for. She loved her sisterhood with all her heart and she could fight and kill any grown man or women without remorse but sometimes she had to slay children all for the cause of defending her livelihood. She never even understood what they really wanted with shibusen or why they hunted witches. She, however, still accepted the mission and traveled to America.
Upon arrival she realized that the school she was sent to help destroy was filled with children. She assumed I would be a college filled with adults but most of them consisted of students under the age of seventeen and she just couldn’t bring herself to hurt them. She was shortly discovered by a teacher who attempted to engage her in combat but she declined and refused to fight him. She agreed to let herself be taken into custody where she spoke with lord death and explained her feelings on the entire situation and submitted herself to any punishment he say fit. To redeem herself for her kind heart and true remorse for the things the witches had done they struck a deal that if she protected the school and helped the children of shibusen they would stop hunting her sisterhood unless they chose to directly assault the school again. It was a fair enough contract. Thus she became the nurse of the school as well as guardian for all the students in times of invasion.
Personality: Kurori is generally seen as calm and gentle natured yet is a very strong and tall woman. She is almost always seen with her eyes closed as well as a smile that makes her face resemble that of a fox. While she is patient she believes in being stern when it is necessary especially when dealing with unruly students. She is a very respectable person giving off a sort of big sister feel to those who spend an extended period of time around her.
Orientation & Lover: Straight, None
Witch Abilities:
Shunkuchi Mukyo( Boundless Ground Contraction): This technique allows Kurori to increase her speed and agility in dim light to deeper darkness. In regular lighting the technique only lets her have short precise bursts of speed, in dim lighting she can cover far more ground, in deeper darkness the technique is at its best.
Kage Bushin(Shadow clone): This technique allows Kurori to split into multiple shadow clones. This technique is limited to the amount of light around. In normal lighting she can only create one single illusionary clone capable of doing nothing more than mimicking her, in dim lighting she can create up to seven of these illusionary clones who can only phase through and cause no harm, In deeper darkness she can conjure up to three other clones capable of physical interaction. By significantly damaging them they disperse into raw shadow. Damaging her badly or rendering her unconscious breaks this as well.
Kage Nui (Shadow Sewing): Kurori takes her shadow and uses it to connect to the shadows of people or other objects and ties them to her own allowing her to constrict or move them. With objects she can lift them and use them as offensive weaponry or to use as a shield to defend her. the heavier the object the more magic is required to move it. With people she can only make them stand perfectly still as this is used mostly as a disciplinary measure or to hold an enemy in place until help arrives apprehend them. In deeper darkness the technique requires far less magic and she can physically make a person mimic her movements by tying the shadows around them like puppet strings. Those who have significant control over their soul wavelength and are able to match with her own they have the ability to free themselves however the deeper the darkness the more difficult this is to do. This can be used ONLY in dim light or deeper darkness.
Ookina Kage no Mahou(Great shadow conjuration): Kurori uses the shadows around her to create physical weaponry as well as mimic spells of different elements for illusionary purposes. In normal lighting Kurori can take a weapon from her own shadow no bigger than a kunai or ninjato, In dim lighting Kurori can take out from her own or surrounding shadows multiple kunai, a katana, or a demon shuriken, In deeper darkness she can create as many kunai as she can hold at one time, a nodachi katana, and a great demon shuriken. As for the spell mimicry she can only use it in deeper darkness as it requires a great amount of magic to do. This means she can replicate the effects of a fireball made from shadow and heat will be felt but it is not real and no pain or actually damage will befall them. It is merely a scare tactic to use as a distraction to allow an opening for attacks, to allow her or others to escape, or make the enemy turn and run.
