[indent]Physical Description:
[indent][color=00aeef]Yuuna is a girl of average build for her age and ethnic group. Her body has been shaped by martial arts practice while she was young, which was only accentuated once her powers began to develop. If nothing else what call for more attention on appearance is Yuuna's pure white hair and icy blue eyes, a side effect of the power she wields and one of the main reasons why Yuuna was named the Saint of Winter over time

When it comes to clothing, usually Yuuna is seen wearing winter garments, like heavy coats and gloves, mostly white in color, with her main distinguishing characteristic being her hat which is a memento from a military unit Yuuna spent some time with and came to consider as a foster family.[/color][/indent][/indent]
[indent]Biography/background:
[indent][color=00aeef]Yuuna was born on Okinawa, and spent the best of her childhood learning the island's traditional martial art, the Okinawan karate as well as Soujustsu, the art of the spear, as a child from a respected martial artists lineage. It wasn't until Yuuna turned eleven and her powers first began to manifest, by an unnatural drop in the island's temperature, that her life would change forever.

After the first harsh encounter with [i]'them'[/i] and the advent of her unique ability, Yuuna began to roam the land as both a penitent soul and a bringer of hope, these days whenever she passes through, people can't help but call her by the name of Saint of Winter for both of these characteristics.

Okinawa fell to the demons mostly thanks to the untimely bloom of Yuuna's freezing powers that seriously hampered the efforts to evacuate the island, leaving only a select few survivors (herself included, since no one knew she was the source of the sudden blizzard that caused so many deaths at that time). After she came to know that whenever she stays at a place for too long the climate of the region shifts into a deep freezing winter, Yuuna began to roam the land and spent most of her days on Hokkaido where more snow and ice was not uncommon, specially on these days where the poles are slowly refreezing.

Not all on the young Limiter's life was tragedy, though, since it was on Hokkaido that Yuuna met her surrogate family. A broken detachment of the Russian armed forces Siberian troops, that had been sent to defend the rear guard, after the mainland fell and fought the beasts using equipment from the age of the Soviet Union. She spent a couple years with them, which earned her both a very good fluency of Russian and knowledge of survival in the harsh conditions she tends to bring with her as well as some human warmth amidst the coldness of her days.

It wouldn't last.

It turns out that the unit she lived in would be ambushed, even amidst the harsh winter conditions, by moonmen that somehow were buried under the earth. The ensuing battle was in truth a slaughter and once more all that was left of Yuuna was to survive alone. After this tragic outcome Yuuna traveled back to Honshu on a relief ship and up to this day she spends her time traversing the countryside and salvaging whatever can be (canned food, bottled water, medicine, batteries, once in a while small luxuries like candies, books and toys) of villages that have been ruined and bringing it to those who would have better use for such supplies without asking anything in return.

There's about no one in Zone 2's countryside that doesn't know of the Saint of Winter's fame, her generosity and her cold, seemingly broken heart incapable of forming deep bonds with anything other than the music she came to love so much and a wolf that follows her whenever she goes.

[indent]Personality:
[indent][color=00aeef]Yuuna is as cold as the winter and snow she takes after, isolating herself behind a barrier of music and rarely ever letting anyone pierce through it. In her travels, after all the losses she suffered, Yuuna gained a deep appreciation of music (the only solace left for her) and almost never she is seen without a music player and headphones. Whoever this cold exterior is a cask needed to keep her powers under control, in truth Yuuna does long for closeness with others, but in opening herself she could bring disaster.

Best summed in the opinion of most who have met her on the countryside, [i]"The Saint of Winter's smile, is beautiful, but painfully sad to gaze at, almost as if she was shedding all her warmth for you and keeping none to herself."[/i][/color][/indent][/indent]
[indent]Type:
[indent][color=00aeef]Speed.[/color][/indent][/indent]
[indent]Special Ability:
[indent][color=00aeef]Yuuna is simply put, walking entropy, a heat sinkhole that steals the energy of the molecules around her, giving the impression that she has freezing powers, when actually what she does is redirect heat from a place to other to, well... freeze things. All that stolen energy can't simply disappear, for one can't simply break the ironclad laws of thermodynamics, so all energy that Yuuna steals ends up being shed deeply to the ground bellow her and to the sky high above by a strong convection force.

That said, Yuuna doesn't have complete control over her powers, and some of it "bleeds out" causing a constant drop in the temperature around her that's too faint to notice at first, unless the place has a complete still atmosphere, but soon enough it piles up and if Yuuna remains in the same place for too long winter will always come. The more unstable her emotional state the more powerful is this uncontrollable effect. Other consequences of a total loss of control might exist, but since Yuuna never has undergone them, there's no way to know what will happen.

As a side effect whenever Yuuna moves away from a frozen zone, life tries to bloom again, just like the Spring that comes after a hard, long Winter. Also, note that because Yuuna steals ones hit by just touching them, her body appears to be extremely hot to touch, when in truth it's yours that is colder, a simple thermometer is enough to prove this.[/color][/indent][/indent]
[indent]Skillset:
[indent][color=00aeef]Aside from her martial arts, Yuuna also is proficient in Russian and can read Cyrillic, has a decent training from the soldiers she lived with, becoming an expert at old Soviet tactics and weaponry. She's specially proficient in sniping, to say the truth. And, apparently she can sing very well (a skill she learned with the one of the soldiers as well), the real problem is convincing her to do so.[/color][/indent][/indent]
[indent]Equipment:
[indent][color=00aeef]An SVD Dragunov sniper rifle and spare ammo that she uses primary for hunting the few edible game that still survives in the open world, survival kits and items she carries from place to place, magnesium lighters (to endure the harsh conditions around her). And, if it can be counted as such, Grisha, an artic wolf hound that once belonged to the soldiers she lived with and that somehow became very attached to Yuuna after both of their losses, he's very intelligent and loyal, but only ever answers to commands spelled in Russian, for obvious reasons.[/color][/indent][/indent]
