A bitter life had made her grow tired of the world at large. However, Harumi still held a deep inquisitive nature, the boundless curiosity of an unfulfilled child —one could say— and a stubbornness that would make a mule look tame when she made her mind about something. These days, Harumi still keeps traces of her old self, but the unfettered life as Reiko's apprentice changed her fundamental view of the world. Now that she knows that the supernatural is all too real, Harumi can't help but get excited around being such as kitsune, ghosts and fairies, despite that, she finds jarring the fact that no one, even Reiko, believes that aliens exist. After all, if there are espers, (alleged) time travellers and (again alleged) people from other dimensions running around the world, why there can be aliens out there somewhere?.[/i] [color=cd5c5c][b]Short Bio:[/b][/color] [i]Being the only daughter of a divorced upper middle class couple, Harumi had a privileged (but cold) life most of the time until a unexpected turn of events got her in contact with the world of the supernatural. Since she is an unplanned child, born out of an one night stand between a couple of careless students, neither of her parents cared too much for Harumi, thinking that money would solve all the problems that a crappy upbringing created. Harumi lived with her mother (a cardiosurgeon) until she became a high school student, when she moved to a studio apartment (after enrolling on, then recently co-ed, elite prep school, Kaname Academy) and managed to live on her own, after becoming full of her parents' crap. There, she met her first true acquaintance, ***-kun, a boy that had obvious feelings for her. However, Harumi hang around him mainly because she didn't knew how to turn someone like him down, even so, there was no way for her to retribute with feelings that she didn't had. In time that backfired grievous and oonly a stoke of luck spared Harumi from a grisly fate. Harumi's life changed radically after she was saved by a mysterious swordswoman who was hunting down a spirit that had chosen Harumi as its next target. Shortly after, Harumi was brought to the Hunter's Association on a day when no one other than the World's Most Powerful Mage was making a rare visit to her tutor's headquarters. Reiko took Harumi in, since she was in dire need of a new domestic helper... apprentice an, the rest is history.[/i] [color=cd5c5c][b]Powers:[/b][/color] [i]First and foremost, Harumi is a psych, having a rather high potential, but little to no means of exerting her main ability of her own free will, or better, of controlling its output. Simply said, Harumi is a medium that can contact and interact with spirits of all kinds, however her reserved of Spiritual Power is so huge that it keeps "bleeding", making Harumi into a big lure for Youkai and other spiritual beings, like ghosts. Needless to say, such a bothersome power is the source of unending grief to Harumi. Since she was born a Psych, Harumi can't even use her Spiritual Power to cast magic, which for some can be considered a relief, since her tutor/employer, Asamiya Reiko -The World's Most Powerful Mage- theorized that Harumi could surpass even her if she were to find a way to use magic. Even so, such an endeavor our really not within Harumi's list of wishes.[/i] [color=cd5c5c][b]Weapons:[/b][/color] [i]Harumi doesn't carry any weapons in the strict sense of the word, instead she uses magical Ofuda (talismans prepared by her teacher Reiko that can be used to number of situations) and, if the push comes to shove, good ol' martial arts to get her through the perils of a Chaser's life.[/i] [color=cd5c5c][b]Equipment:[/b][/color] [i]Kaguya: A ceremonial tool in the shape of a short sword, it's in fact a reproduction of the a treasure long since lost. The blade, despite having a rather sharp edge, isn't meant for battle, but as a focus to the wielder's Spiritual Power. Truth be told, Harumi has little to no use to the sword since she can't use magic. Reiko gave it to Harumi as the mark of an accomplished apprentice, just like Reiko herself had received it from her own master, thus Harumi wields the blade with quite a bit of pride. Dress of Heaven: Another one of Reiko's heirlooms, Harumi's shrine maiden dress, is enchanted to be as sturdy and offer about as much protecting as a military grade ballistic vest The dress also has the neat function of being able to turn into a bracelet (for those moments when a cosplay-like suit isn't the best choice of attire) and back with a simple voice command. The dress also displays Harumi's version of the Scarlet Sage's crest (a white rose over a red field), which Harumi is quite happy to flaunt around.[/i] [color=cd5c5c][b]Other:[/b][/color] [i]Despite everyone else's opinion on that matter, Harumi is a firm believer that UFOs and Extraterrestrial beings do exist. Can do pretty much any household chore as well as any experienced housewife. In fact, if it wasn't for Harumi's domestic skills, Reiko would still be living in a huge trash pile. Has a thing for bad boys, however her luck is very poor and she tends to end up with scumbag boyfriends pretty much whenever she gets one.[/i] [center][h3][i][color=cd5c5c]Theme[/color][/i][/h3][/center] [center][youtube]https://youtu.be/ihnMYh0usOc[/youtube][/center]
