Yuki Kaguya

"The only blood I let be spilt will be mine, and it will be not without resistance.""

Appearance
Yuki has a definitive light skin tone and possesses violet eyes. Her hair is a nice hazel color and is long. Her hair is styled into an East Asian styled Hime cut, with her hair being shoulder length low. Her hair is naturally straightened, though Yuki doesn't bother to interfere with it too much. She is quite tall despite her age, being at 5' 7". She weighs around average, however, at a standard 125 lbs. Yuki has a slim, small frame, which compliments her style of attacking at long range.

History
Yuki was born and raised in the more wealthy families of Mistral. She was put into private school, off one of the islands of Mistral. During her time at the private school, however, her father often visited her. Her father helped found her one of her most experienced hobbies; ballet and ice skating.

During the weekends, when Yuki was not studying, her father took her to a ballet studio. She was found to be precocious in the arts of dancing and ballet, and her teacher helped arranged with her to meet with private instructors. Under this close examination of her during her childhood, Yuki flourished as a ballerina. This was mostly during her elementary school days.

However, her parents ended up getting a divorce. Her father, fortunately, won custody of Yuki, and the two ended up living in a house right next to the ballet studio. This helped Yuki immensely during this dark time in her life, as she used dancing as her outlet for her sadness, frustration, and anger. Even now, Yuki believes that this ballet studio was her savior, and she owes it a lot.

Eventually, her ballet instructor told her that she would also do well in the arts of ice skating. Though she didn't do it as seriously as ballet, she found that ice skating was another outlet for her emotions. Despite many people disliking the term "dancing" for ice skating, Yuki firmly believed that it was a type of dance. Her time ice skating ended up helping her learn how to fight with her whip, as her elegant movements are derived from this section of her life.

When Yuki turned 13, she was now part of Sanction, an academy where people learned to define their fighting abilities. This was one of the few things that her father truly pushed for her to do, despite her not being as serious about it. At Sanction, she ended up forging her personal weapon, Firework Tatsumaki.

Eventually, after a few years at Sanction, she refined her fighting abilities. Utilizing her ice skating and ballet prowess with her long-range whip style, Yuki believes that she is a very good fighter, despite not having confronted in a true, one-on-one fight with anyone. Despite this, Yuki has high hopes for getting an invitation to Beacon Academy.

Personality
Yuki is a very "by-the-numbers" person that sticks with a schedule. If anything goes even a bit unplanned in her daily routine, it' s not uncommon for her to start freaking out. Unfortunately, this is one of her biggest weaknesses in battle. Yuki ends up overcalculating her opponent's next move, but doesn't end up focusing on her own battle plans.

Yuki is generally quite friendly, unless you do something to her purposely bad. If the latter happens, she will try quite literally everything in order to get back at you, no matter how small the issue was at first. This is part of the reason as to why Yuki loves prank wars so much. Unfortunately, this is a bit of a deterrent for other people as a first impression, but she generally has ease in making friends.

Combat
Yuki's personal weapon of choice is a Multi Segmented Shotgun Whip (MSSW), and is called Firework Tatsumaki (literal meaning: Firework Tornado). The weapon has two forms, as denoted by the name. It has a multisegmented whip form and a shotgun form. The whip itself is about three meters long (around 9 feet), but it can expand and contract to varying distances. Each of the whip's segments contains a dust node. The order of the nodes is as follows: red, cyan, white, violet, blue, and yellow. Yuki does have a sheath for the weapon itself, which is collapsible due to ease and portability.

The hilt of the whip is a golden color, while the segments of the whip are various silver blades. The connecting lining between each of the segments of the whip is black. The whip can also transform into a Benelli M4 Super 90 shotgun, which is semi-automatic in firing. Certain streaks of the shotgun is white, while the rest of it is a golden color.

If Yuki uses red dust, the whip is encaptured in hot flames. This mostly used for defensive purposes, but Yuki needs to be careful not to set anything on fire that'll give her disadvantage. The flames can give the whip a bit more durability in attacking, but it's mainly used for blocking possibilities. If Yuki uses cyan dust, the entire whip glows a faint light blue. Then, Yuki can circle her blade in front of her, forming large icicles. They can be thrown as projectiles at opponents. They are easily breakable, but can hurt if the opponent is hit by one. This is mainly used as a diversion so Yuki can think about a battle plan. If Yuki uses white dust, she can cause her whip to circle around in front of her, forming a shield that only protects her from attacks in front of her. This shield acts like a mirror, and ends up breaking if it's hit too much. It also does not protect her sides, or her back.

Yuki's semblance relies almost entirely on dust. With her semblance, she can cause her segments to end up breaking away from the hilt of the whip. In this form, they glow a pure white, and form a circle around Yuki as they are still connected by the lining. When Yuki uses certain dust with them, they end up reacting with a defensive maneuver, and an attacking maneuver.

If red dust is used, the segments and the lining will glow a burning red, and flames will shoot up as a defensive mechanism. This allows Yuki to think of a battle plan, and the flames can block many types of projectiles, though it fails against close-range combat. The flame wall around her also tires her out, especially if the wall takes a beating. If cyan dust is used, Yuki can grab the hilt of her blade, and connect the now-cyan glowing segments. When she spins around as if ice skating, the dust ends up causing the vicinity of around four or five feet to be covered in ice, which moves around with Yuki. However, her ice abilities are slightly hampered by her fatigue if she uses it for longer than ten minutes. This allows her to utilize her ice skating skills at maximum force.

Trivia

 * Yuki alludes to Princess Kaguya from the Tale of the Bamboo Cutter, which is a Japanese folktale.
 * Yuki doesn't know where her mother is, but doesn't really care.
 * Her semblance doesn't seem to affect her shotgun form, and neither does Dust, despite her trying numerous times.
 * This could be a matter of inexperience, due to her lack of battle prowess so far.
