[B][u]Personality:[/u][/b] Kizuna is normally a reserved, quiet girl who does her best to be polite to others. However, she has certain quirks and hobbies that others would politely call "odd", especially for a girl. As such she doesn't have very many friends, save for a few she's met online and at several events. As a Magical Girl, her personality undergoes a change, especially when in the middle of a fight. If anything, despite the fact that her enemies could very well kill her or someone around her, Kizuna treats combat like a game. While usually a graceful loser, if one manages to push her buttons just right, she could start directing her violence at them instead of an opponent.
[B][u]Backstory:[/u][/b] The youngest of two children in her family, Kizuna led a relatively unremarkable childhood. She and her brother went to school, their parents worked, and it all seemed to be a normal, ideal life. However things began changing around the time her brother entered high school. In the span of a few weeks, her brother seemed to excel in everything he participated in. Sports, school, clubs. Their parents showered him with praise and over time rarely acknowledged any of Kizuna's accomplishments. Unable to get the same attention from her parents, Kizuna retreated into herself.
She developed hobbies that she knew weren't normal for girls her age: airsoft, dart tag, first-person shooter video games. Despite seeing this her parents didn't seem to care. But to her something felt… off. She had a dream one night. Someone… or something… told her that her brother had died, and some kind of demon had taken his body. Kizuna demanded proof.
And once she woke up, she got it.
When Kizuna looked at her brother something was wrong. His eyes were a different color. His voice was deeper as well. Something was very wrong.
[i]"That thing is no longer your brother. It possessed his body, devoured his soul, and it's now feeding off of your parents' emotions."
"How do I know you're telling the truth?"
"Your parents stopped paying attention to you when your brother got into high school. He became an ace in everything. Your brother died one night, and something took his place to drain your parents' emotions like a parasite. If the demon inside your brother's body continues, they'll die."
"And if it stops feeding on their emotions?"
"They'll go back to normal. They'll treat you like their daughter again."
". . . 
"Tell me what I have to do to make that happen."[/i]
[B][u]Notes:[/u][/b] - Kizuna hates spiders, and used to be afraid of them when she was younger.
- There are several other Magical Girls in the city, and after Kizuna let her temper get the better of her, it's very rare that any of them are willing to work with her unless absolutely necessary.
- Kizuna has a very pragmatic fighting style, partly due to the fact that the majority of her magical power is invested in her weapons.
- Has a special finisher attack, but Kizuna has rarely used it, as she usually enjoys a good firefight.
