[list][*][u][b]Name:[/b][/u] Akagawa Reina
[*][u][b]Age:[/b][/u] 17
[*][u][b]Gender:[/b][/u] Female
[*][u][b]Appearance:[/b][/u] [url=https://i.imgur.com/X6NveJJ.png]Standing at under 152 cm, Reina is a very short girl.[/url]
[*][u][b]Personality:[/b][/u] A highly temperamental girl befitting her esper power. Hotly aggressive to her enemies, and yet seemingly cold and derisive towards allies, Reina is not the easiest person to work with. She has a low tolerance for anything she sees as fooling around, and has a sharp and sarcastic tongue and tendency to mock others who she seems as foolish. However, she is also extremely dedicated to her duty as an APSU operative. Her stubborn nature is both an asset, as she will refuse to relent when assigned an objective, and yet also a problem given her habit of disagreeing with others. Even when Reina has taken a liking to someone, she is unlikely to admit to that fact and is instead liable to try and cover up any affection she feels. Still, she is highly driven and success-minded and these are undeniably assets when it comes to her performance as a combatant. Additionally, her attitude towards Phantoms is highly aggressive, and while this is perhaps an asset as well it is also something of a blindspot if she becomes too angry, her usual intelligent approach to combat taking a back seat to her emotions. She has a soft spot for small animals and enjoys sweets, and does not handle embarrassing situations well.
[*][u][b]Brief Backstory:[/b][/u] Born to parents with the same esper power, it was undeniable that Reina herself would have it as well. Naturally possessing an esper power from birth, she was trained even prior to becoming part of the APSU by her father in their family's art of swordplay. This was a long-held tradition, the Akagawa family having trained its heirs in such a manner for as long as their history was recorded. Both of her parents were APSU operatives as well, and it was treated as a matter of course that Reina would be scouted to become an operative as well. It was not long before she entered formal training as a part of the agency that her parents were attacked while on a mission, her father killed and her mother rendered comatose. Shocked, the situation naturally delayed her entrance into the APSU. But soon, she reapplied with renewed vigor, determined to both follow her parents' footsteps and avenge them by killing as many phantoms as possible.
[*][u][b]Esper Power:[/b][/u][list][*][u]Pyrokinesis:[/u] Reina's psychic abilities lie in the capacity to ignite and manipulate fire. Provided there is enough flammable material, either in the air or in the form of a physical object, Reina can catalyze the ignition of fire. From there, she is capable of manipulating it freely within a range of up to fifteen meters from herself. These flames can be used as projectiles, to set enemies on fire, or to envelope her Neural Link weapon in flames. She can also produce small explosions, or concentrate intense heat into a thin, cutting 'beam' of intensely hot fire capable of searing through armor and even metal if given enough time. Reina is considered among the top pyrokinetics in terms of her current capacity with her abilities.[/list]
[*][u][b]Equipment:[/b][/u] Reina's Neural Link Weapon is a Type-45 Anti-Phantom Blade 'Masamune', specifically the Pyrokinesis model. A sharp blade modeled on the work of the swordsmiths of the distant past. A specific model under the general series of Anti-Phantom blades, it is equipped with an special ignitable surface allowing the blade itself to be coated in flames without need of another source of ignition. The edge of the blade is extremely sharp and effective at piercing through phantoms.
[*][u][b]Skills:[/b][/u] Reina is highly capable with a sword, having been taught in her family's own school for that purpose. She is a uniquely terrible cook, to the point where it could potentially be considered and offensive skill.[/list]
