[list][*][u][b]Name:[/b][/u] Sakuraba Yasu

[*][u][b]Age:[/b][/u] 16

[*][u][b]Gender:[/b][/u] Female

[*][u][b]Appearance:[/b][/u] [url=https://i.imgur.com/TPaHPKD.png]Standing at 5'9" with a slender build,[/url] Yasu appears as a bit boyish. Even though she has naturally slate eyes, she chooses to dye her hair a similar grey.

[*][u][b]Personality:[/b][/u] Yasu is a bit of a subdued person. She doesn't have much of a drive to do anything. This includes getting a high rank. At times, she is more interested in the crappy manga that she reads than battles. This has lead to her constantly sandbagging most fights. Even though she's subdued, she's pretty poisonous and rude to most people. Filled with sarcasm and genuine insults at others, she's more seen as a mild bully to most people. In regards to insults, her skin is pretty thick. She literally doesn't give a single hoot about what other people say about her.

[*][u][b]Backstory:[/b][/u] For Yasu, school was always a chore. Learn, sleep, repeat. That's all it was. Her family was rather militant; she would learn beyond her abilities, train beyond her body, and become the perfect society member. It was pretty miserable for the lazy Yasu. All she wanted to do was relax in life. Why did she have to put up with studying for 6 hours a day? Well, she found a way out of her grind. Battle schools, as they were called. She could practically emancipate herself and live on her own.

So she did just that. She found a nice, cheap apartment and a nice job and began to take control of her own life back. Battling was just a nice place to break up the monotony of constant studying. Really, she just wanted to get away from her parents. With an old, since retired AED that she had taken from her father, she battled and studied in no particular order. She was good at it, too. She quickly climbed the ranks and became a bit of a notable figure in the school. That's when she realized something; being high on the ranks sucked. Sure, it was good to get the benefits, but having to deal with the notoriety, constant challenges, and actually having to deal with club politics?

That was hot garbage.

Wanting out of the grind once more, Yasu began to sandbag every single fight. Her rank plummeted and she was back to a healthy rank 3. Leaving her previous club, she joined a similar club of low-rankers: the manga club. Though, she really just chose the club because she could be left alone. Actually reading manga was just a nice bonus.

[*][u][b]Inherent Engine Skill:[/b][/u] Yasu can inherently perceive mana as a 6th sense. The range of this is technically indefinite, but it reaches 0% accuracy at about 20 meters. Beyond that, Yasu typically says that it's like a wall of fog and fuzz since she can't parse such a complex feeling. The specifics of what she can read are a bit confusing to outsiders; while she can reliably sense humans and the activation of most AED, things that are unique or nonstandard have to be carefully learned by her.

[*][u][b]Active Engine Device:[/b][/u] Taking the form of an ivory six-shot revolver, [b]Highwayman[/b] is an Active Engine Device designed for ranged combat. Rather than simply damaging the physical aspect of those struck by the bullets, Highwayman also absorbs mana and redirects it back to the user. Because of this, Highwayman is a considerable threat to those who attempt to block it by most means. People who block with their AED soon find their weapons deactivated from repeated blows. A well placed shot on an AED could even temporarily disrupt the usage of it. If someone has the durability to eat the shots, they might find themselves slowly being sapped of their defense.

The bullets that Highwayman fires aren't ordinary shots. Based on how the user pulls the trigger, the bullet can either be fired as though it were a real round or it could be fired and, after a short distance, float in mid air. Because of this, the user can ricochet bullets off of their floating bullets, creating a miniature game of billiards. Except, you know, with guns and bullets. In order to reload Highwayman, the user simply pops out the barrel, gives it a spin, then swings it back in. If a bullet collides with a hard surface, it embeds itself on it, acting as a perfect point to ricochet bullets off of.

[*][u][b]Skills:[/b][/u] Yasu is insane at math. She's probably the smartest person at the school in regards to numbers. Besides that, she's incredibly good at seeing things that are far away. Less so when she has to look at things up close. She's also rather athletic, which is surprising. She also has a part time job, which is a skill of it's own when it comes to high schoolers.
