Personality: Yuka's behavior is often unpredictable, ranging from elusive and mysterious to bold and blunt. She's a social butterfly one moment and a predator on the hunt the next. Her emotions are seemingly fleeting and can be hard to keep up with. She will say what she wants whenever she wants to, often saying something inappropriate at a time she shouldn't. Her mannerisms are often very flirty and playful with most she meets, as she is someone who has no qualms enjoying her life. Yuka is friendly upon meeting, and even sometimes affectionate, but it is not necessarily always her true feelings. It is difficult for her to trust others and she prefers to work alone. However, she isn't necessarily selfish in all cases. She will be fiercely protective of those in her circle and very kind to them. It just takes a long time to be trusted into such circle. Yuka will help strangers out depending on her mood.
Though Yuka's moods easily swing from one to the next, she's not often easily angered. She is rather calm and calculating with each one of her moves. Her mannerisms are often smooth and graceful as if she's doing a dance with each footstep. Yuka is poised and regal in her movements as if she were born from royal blood. Patient and willing to play the long game, she always has what she wants on her mind. Yuka can come off as brave and daring to many, but she does take the time to think before leaping, considering each and every move's consequence.
Yuka is cunning, manipulative, and charismatic. She has no problems manipulating and lying to get what she wants as her moral compass is gray in more than a few spots. Yuka would kill with no guilt if she decided the situation called for it, but as noted before, she isn't necessarily heartless. She has a charming, smooth way of talking to others, batting her eyelashes simply to meet an end. Just like a cat, she'd push your cup off the table, watch it break and then smile at you, all to elicit a reaction out of you. Yuka has a sense of humor that usually is ironic, dark, or sexual in nature. She will pretend to laugh at your joke if she's trying to manipulate you so it can be hard to tell for the other person.

History:Yuka was born to a noble family in Roshmi, the youngest of two daughters. They hadn't always been wealthy though. Her mother, Kaede, had grown up an artist, while Kaede's sister Hina had been a seamstress. From a young age, the two had put their skills together to start a business: Hanami Designs. Their success grew over a long period of time and became such a large name in Roshmi, that when her mother had found herself a husband, he had taken her last name upon marriage. Yuka and her sister Sayuri were raised with the intent to let them take their aunt and mother's places, learning to sew and design clothing from a young age. Yuka absolutely loved it and would easily dedicate hours to her craft, inheriting the family work ethic. Kaede worked so hard that she hadn't spent too much time with her daughters, using them as employees more than daughters as they came of age to be of use. Kaede had hoped to expand her designs to other species of Avalians and expand her reach.
Yuka's father Botan was quite the polar opposite of Kaede. While Kaede focused on her career, Botan couldn't be bothered to even consider one. He was completely paranoid of the prophecies told that had said the dark elves would one day take everything they ever had. He felt that doing nothing was immoral and involved himself in the Roshmi Army. Botan was involved for a decade when he managed to get himself noticed by King Kasai. When he was offered to be a double agent, Botan thought it was his time to have an impact and show his wife that his ambitions weren't pointless. Unfortunately, he ended up being a pawn to gain some of the trust of the Twin-Headed Dragon. Once Basilian figured out Botan's fraud, Kasai had him executed publicly for treason. Yuka was sixteen at the time and had witnessed her father die in the middle of the Roshmi plaza. Having been closer to her father, she had not taken it very well. Matters got worse when Yuka returned home to an empty household.
Eventually her aunt Hina returned home and let her know that King Kasai had allowed Basilian to take Kaede and Sayuri as slaves back to Daka Island as compensation for the treason of Botan. Her Aunt Hina had been long-widowed, so from then on, it was just the two of them. Her Aunt Hina had worried for a long time that Yuka would never bounce back. Yuka had been depressed for much of her teenage years. Nonetheless, Yuka did recover to an extent and the two of them got into the grove of running the business. Despite the hard hit to their reputation, the drama seemed to increase traction with their brand. With Kaede considered dead as well, those with a morbid curiosity or up to date with the gossip came bounding for their clothes. With Hanami Design's growth, they were able to become the number one clothing store in Roshmi and employ others underneath them. Yuka's intentions from then on were kept secret from everyone around her, but underneath her relaxed exterior, she was starving for revenge. Yuka had a lot of free time now that the business had many more employees. Since she was 19, Yuka has been honing her combat skills, putting her claws to good use.
