[color=c71585][b]PERSONALITY[/b][/color]
[indent]On the surface, Sayuri seems shy and quiet. She seldom speaks, seldom even raises her voice. However, she’s an incredibly intense person, underneath the facade. She feels her emotions quite deeply, passionately, and tends to follow her heart more than her head. At the same time, she’s very observant; an advantage granted by her near-silent presence. She does have a tendency to let her emotions run away from her, a fact which she is trying to reconcile.

Between her silence and her intensity, she can come across as quite unnerving to most. But that passion is a great benefit to anyone who earns her trust and gets her to open up.[/indent]

[color=c71585][b]HISTORY[/b][/color]
[indent]Sayuri Hanakotoba was born Haru Sakimoto, to Akihiko Sakimoto, a proud, strict father. Said father was a former Yakuza head, leaving as the group became more and more Quirk-prevalent, who wanted a son to follow in his footsteps. What he got, however, was a freak of nature, or so he said. Things started out problematic when his child was born with a shock of rose-colored hair. While suspicious on its own, Akihiko was willing to give their heir the benefit of the doubt. That is, until their fourth birthday, when they accidentally destroyed a television with a freak electrical surge. That was all the proof Akihiko needed- his son was a freak, a monster, one of the Quirked that had caused so much chaos in the world since they exploded onto the world stage. And from then on, he resolved to do something about it.

Sayuri’s life was a living hell from that point on. Forced to keep her powers under control at all hours, suppressed deep down inside, for fear of reprisals. Beatings were a weekly matter. Sometimes daily, as Akihiko tried to beat the “freakiness” out of his son, to get him to lock it down so far inside himself that it would never emerge again. Things came to a head when Sayuri was nine years old, experiencing yet another surge of her powers, trying desperately to cover it up. She failed. And Akihiko reached his breaking point, swearing that if his child couldn’t be normal… that he was better off dead.

...Things were a blur after that. All she remembers is the police arriving to find her, half-blind and beaten half to death, next to the twitching, unconscious form of her father, half-dead himself from some sort of freak electrical accident. Regardless, given her condition, Sayuri was taken away, her father arrested, and life as she knew it upended entirely.

Amid the trials and tribulations that were to follow, Sayuri was placed in a foster home- the household of Ren and Ami Hanakotoba. At first she was quiet, almost to the point of being mute. She didn’t feel she belonged, and did not want to intrude on the family unit. Moreover, she didn’t know what a healthy family unit looked like. That was, however, until she found out that Ren Hanakotoba himself had a Quirk. As a result, Sayuri was taken under his wing, and the use of her Quirk was brought under control with his careful tutelage. This wasn’t without its drawbacks. Ren himself was a bit of a vigilante- a pastime that rubbed off on Sayuri a little more than either would have liked. But it was a start- a path to healing.

Sayuri is a much different person now; still quiet, still reserved, but much less so than before, with a fiery passion simmering under her exterior. A passion she intends to use properly, now that she’s been accepted to UA’s burgeoning Hero Course.[/indent]
