Name: Himeko Harusashi
Alias: White Mask
Age: 23
Gender: Female
Race: Elemental - she considers herself flexible between both races
Elemental Base Ability: Fire
Mechanical features: Himeko's left arm has been replaced with a cybernetic arm. On it, there is a screen that could show her physical well being (heart rate/height/weight/etc...) but can also act as something like a phone. It can be hooked on to USB port. Of course, it has to be maintained. One of her kidneys were replaced with a cybernetic as well. Her heart had been replaced after she suffered from a cardiac heart attack as her mentors thought that it was weak and had to be replaced. She has no pulse as a result of this. The heart knows how to restart itself should it fail and even auto-repairs, making attacks that pierce through her heart almost ineffective. Dealing with the black market, she attained nanobots that helped her heal her injuries at an accelerated pace. Though, of course, if you manage to deal enough damage within a short span of time, death is still a possibility.
Appearance: Himeko, as someone who wants to draw less attention to herself, would often travel in less flashy clothing, settling for a dark colored jacket, shirt and cargo pants. For easy travelling, she would often wear combat boots. She carries a backpack that contains essentials. She has brown hair and dull blue eyes, dulled by the amount of bloodshed she had seen even at her young age. She has a lean type of body but most would often be misled to think that she's just an ordinary girl who doesn't look like she can harm someone seriously. There are several scorch marks found on her body with the most noticeable one located at her back that just marred the entirety of her back, assumed to have been gotten because she lost control of her powers at one point of her training. There are also several bruise marks. More than she'll ever admit. She carries around a white mask that has drops of red. She uses this when she's on the more gruesome jobs.
Weapons: She carries around a katana which can be coated with her flames and also an extension of her power. She also has a backup laser pistol just in case.
Personality: Often seen as a person with a cool and calm personality, Himeko is quite a mature individual. She keeps a level head even in the most dire of situations. This is one of the reasons why no one questions her rank and class, the other being the sheer destruction that her powers can cause. In person, she is a rather chill person and wouldn't really get angry if you would throw an insult her way. She might send back a snarky remark, she also might not - it depends on the right circumstances. She is also quite tomboyish, hence her favored outfit of jacket and jeans. She tends to shy away from skirts and would prefer to not be in them. She is a diligent worker and would not stop until the job is done or if it is withdrawn - though she does know when it is impossible to which she reports it back. She has trust issues - trust is hard to earn and easy to break. She has close to no morals at all making her quite a dangerous mercenary.
History: Imagine a tribe of elementals and cyborgs, trained to solely become mercenaries of the highest skill - that was where Himeko had been born. There, you learned how to control your element around the same time you learn how to walk. Training was short but dangerously harsh. Only a few people of their generation get to walk out of there alive and they would be swiftly assigned jobs. Himeko had barely survived the training that ended at the age of fifteen. She was assigned to an assassination job only half a year later. Since they have been trained to not feel, or rather their emotions were beaten right out of them, she had managed to eliminate the target without remorse and come back to the village, still feeling nothing. This continued for three more years. The tribe did not choose sides. Whoever gave them the biggest amount would get a mercenary.
At one point of her life, Himeko, along with some other mercenaries, were hired to wipe out a certain village outside the kingdoms. What they didn't expect was the retaliation. They were quite powerful and Himeko sustained many injuries. They had won but they came back six people short and three were near death. They were patched up by replacing what they had lost with cybernetics. It was not rare for them to have an amalgamation between cyborg and elemental and Himeko was just added to that list. They were all outcasts anyway.
When she was eighteen years old, she had been assigned to a job. It was a bodyguard job for a caravan so it wasn't too hard. When she came back, there was no village. Only fire remained. The village had been attacked, and from the bodies, she knew that there were some who fled. They were out there somewhere, but she didn't know where. They would find her when they needed her, but from there, she kept on going. Since she was born outside both of the kingdoms, no one really knew her. There were no records of her. She usually drifted around Redmon and would do odd jobs here and there but she also took on jobs that would otherwise make someone hurl - like transporting bodies and of course, killing someone. Though she was also seen at New Victoria, also doing the same jobs. She has seen both Queens as she had been hired at least once by someone of high position in the castle as a bodyguard.
At the age of twenty, she was found once more. Though she was allowed to drift, like she did when they were not in contact, she would be able to go back to their homebase/HQ but they would contact her if they have any contracts that needs to be done.
Others: She is ambidextrous. Her studies on her elemental ability is quite advanced thanks to the fact that they were never in short of mentors. She is older than what her appearances let on. She finds this odd but just shrugs it off.
