[color=crimson][b]Appearance[/b][/color]
Akaio can be most comfortably described as a [i]spire[/i]. Toweringly tall and narrow, with the physiological architecture of a railroad spike. Alarmingly red hair hangs like a curtain well past her back, contrasting skin which seems almost bloodless by comparison. There is a sharp and unceasing intensity to her presence, highlighted by bright eyes and a face which expresses all emotions in their extremes. 

In action her wardrobe is chivalry-chic, with a gothic twist. Armor as black and sharp as a blade, accented bloody-red, with a crimson cloak that might as well be grafted on. 

Off the clock, however, one could confuse her for a coasting college student. Sweatpants, band tees, slippers, a neck pillow on rough days. When she isn't playing her role as the destined empress, Akaio would much prefer to be comfortable rather than stylish. 
[color=crimson][b]Lineage[/b][/color]
1st Generation
[color=crimson][b]Type[/b][/color]
Soul Substantializer
[color=crimson][b]Power[/b][/color]
[i][u]Carcosian Eventide[/u][/i] - Akaio manifests her dominion, becoming a focal point from which the Red City spills forth. Carcosian Eventide does not distort reality in the conventional manner of a Substantializer. Rather, it appears to corrupt the very Makai around her, filling in the cracks the Makai creates. As the world begins to break down, it is made anew, "repaired" with the bizarre architecture and landscape of the Red City.

The effects of this power are weak at first, but the longer it's active, and the longer Akaio remains within the Makai, the stronger and more vivid its effects become, twisting both the world and Akaio herself. Her mortality sloughs away for the Monarch beneath, and as the Empire manifests, so too does her strength. Turning delusion into reality, her power, speed and durability will slowly ramp until she either leaves the Makai, deactivates her ability, or dies. 

Or, she suspects, she loses herself entirely to the City.
