[indent]St. 7308 Labs designed this saber for arming Valkyries. Vast amounts of Honkai energy particles adhere to the surface of the blade. The blade has a unique shape, not to enhance its performance but rather a personal design choice. This weapon is essentially a super-taser, to a rather lethal degree. Arcs of electricity snap off its surface upon contact with any surface. It also seems to mildly enhance the penetrative power of lightning attacks performed by the wielder. Not quite enough to ignore a rank of Endurance normally, but when the user channels a Burst-tier feat of Honkai manipulation through the blade, it finally magnifies it enough to do so.[/indent]

[b]Time Fracture[/b]:[indent]An ability that increases a Valkyrie’s Agility by one level for a single post or about 5-10 seconds, giving them the opportunity to dodge some form of peril and potentially retaliate in the same timeframe. Can usually only be used once per battle.[/indent]

If successful, paralysis lasts for a single round[/indent]

[b]Appearance[/b]
[indent]Brown hair, yellow eyes. She sports a long, efficient Japanese ponytail, tied in place with blue ribbon. Around her neck is a peculiar claw. Hinode typically sports a white and blue changpao, with darker blue sleevs, a black belt, and boots. Around her thigh is an [url=https://www.shibaparkhotel.com/en/tokyohotelblog/culture/what-is-mizuhiki/#:~:text=As%20with%20musubi-kiri%2C%20the,something%20to%20not%20happen%20again] awaji knot[/url].[/indent]

[b]Personality[/b]
[indent]In the past, Hinode may have been described as playful and cheerful. She can be easy-going at times, but for the most part she exhibits a focused mindset.[/indent]

[b]Biography[/b]
[indent]Hinode, Mizumi, and Ni. The three disciples were thick as thieves, even if the elder Ni-sama liked to police them more than was strictly necessary. Hino and Mizu would grab lunch from the latter's place, and Mizu's grandmother made the [i]best[/i] rice balls. They'd train together, Mizu would cast "spells" (At Hino's insistence), and Ni-sama taught Hino how to not kill herself swinging a katana around.

They were good times. Happy times.

And then they went to explore a peculiar disturbance. 

They deployed without backup, and without possibly knowing what they might encounter. A handful of scarlet uriels almost did them in before the real threat arrived, and when it did-

She... Prefers not to think about it. But she does. She thinks about it every day. A towering [i]emperor[/i], wreathed in flames like a demon straight out of hell. It was far worse than any playful predictions Hinode may have had before, and in no time at all, she learned first-hand what the ranking system was for.

Her friends were dead. Ni-sama was dead. Mizu, who was like a little sister to her, was dead. It was a miracle she lived at all, if just barely.

In the rubble and ruin, all she was able to recover was a severed horn. Ni-sama's lasting legacy.

Everything after that was kind of a blur. She needed... She [i]needed,[/i] and that needing lead her to World Serpent. Taixuan, as much as she loved and supported them, couldn't help her anymore. And she... Wasn't strong enough to fulfil her duties to them either. But World Serpent promised her power, the same power that could have saved her comrades in the past. 

She's still a Disciple of Taixuan. She always will be. But for now, she belongs to World Serpent.

One day, through them, she will achieve the power to destroy the Honkai.

One day, she will hunt down the beast that destroyed her life.

One day, it will face her blade.
