When Izumi was fifteen years old, she sported short hairstyle similar to Nabiki's. She also wore a blue-themed ninja outfit. Izumi continued to keep that outfit until her later teens and then she was forced to change her appearance due to being wanted for an arson crime that accidentally happened to a department store in downtown Tokyo. Izumi's new look was having longer hair which was colored to a lighter brown and her outfit was changed to a red and gray motif. Sometimes, if the weather permits, Izumi rather wears shorts and a tank top.

However, unlike them, having received training from Clef in combat, as well as control, she's a bit more calm and relaxed..  Trained as a Ninja, she's an expert in hand to hand combat techniques, and she's confident in her abilities.  Often striking out on her own to explore things, or take odd jobs for extra money and to relieve boredom, she's managed to get herself into a few jams.. but nothing she can't handle.  On occasion in her younger days, she's seen with her half sister Konami or half brother Ryosuke, she of course knows she's better than either of them.. but that still doesn't seem to stop her from being good friends with them.

Rather unfortunately.. much like her mother, she seems to have some slight.. problems, with riding in vehicles... and.. due to a slight miscommunication, Yuffie read about an invincible technique in an ancient text that was left where it shouldn't have been, and decided that it would be a great idea to throw Izumi into a pit of starving cats, covered in fish sausage...

After continuing her training and also hanging out with her younger brother Makoto, Izumi decided to head to the castle where her parents first met. She decided that if there was a good place to start adventuring, it was definitely there. Izumi made a lot of friends and reaquainted with old friends like [[Matsumi]], [[Sylph]], [[Kura]], and [[Gabriel]] to name a few. Izumi was also fascinated with a few of the other patrons, sometimes in a picking on sort of way.. especially [[Pepper]], despite him being a great deal older than her.

Eventually her eyes however set on the resident android doctor, [[Akira]]. Having never met someone so diligent, quiet, beautiful, and smart.. and OH MAN THOSE -MUSCLES-! Izumi was instantly in awe. Often spying on him in silence from the medbay air vents.. she was caught by Akira and then formally introduced to him. Izumi ended up spending a great deal of time around Akira until he asked her if it would be alright for her to be part of a new program he developed to try to understand human emotions better. The program was concerning romantics.. and Izumi, albeit being a little shy, agreed. From that point on Izumi and Akira began dating. She developed a few programs for him which made him look very ridiculous, but it was all in good humor. Izumi then tried to get close to the rest of the people close to Akira, one of them being [[Eve]]. However Eve was absolutely not having it, and shunned Izumi off. Izumi, definitely not one to give up, decided she'd keep trying.. but on a later time.

Izumi then joined a mercenary group which consisted of [[Raziel]], Matsumi, Sylph, and Yuriko. Taking random jobs, Izumi started to get rather wealthy and began making a name for herself. During this time Izumi was invited to join the Dark Tournament under Hiei (Kura's father)'s team. Izumi's battle was lucky in the fact that her opponent's weapon was to draw out her worst fear... which unfortunately made her slip into the Neko-ken technique. Izumi won the round and advanced with her team. The entire team won and Izumi along with the others were able to receive a wish. Izumi wished for a new summon materia, Neo Bahamut. Izumi was very pleased with the outcome of the tournament until she found out what her brother Makoto had wished for. He wished to become immortal, therefore becoming part youko (fox demon). He had also the ability to grant this immortality to one other person and he wanted to share it with Izumi. Izumi however declined.. she didn't want to live forever and knew that was a bigger curse than a gift. Makoto was very upset but did not press it.

The next biggest mission with Izumi was the arrival of Sailor Galaxia. The gardian Luna, unfortunately in the shape of a cat, came to deliver the representation of Mars to Izumi. Izumi, despite trying not to freak out at the freaking cat there, accepted the role of becoming Sailor Mars. Finding herself protecting the newly appointed Sailor Moon, Sylph.. the pair again battled evil versions of their friends. One of which ended up being Pepper, in the form of a MOTD... and calling himself Sailor Hentai Okashira. During that fight Rina Inverse, in the form of Sailor Iron Mouse, fired a beam at the Sailor Soldiers. Izumi, in Mars form, leaped in to defend Sailor Moon and was hit by the beam. Her body disintigrated and the Sailor Animates (the bad guys) where able to accept their first Star Seed. From then on the other Sailor Soldiers started to fall. Akira also personally challenged Sailor Galaxia for killing his girlfriend with one of the combat programs Izumi had designed for him.. (he got to wear a cowboy hat, ok?), and unfortunately he was also dismantled.

===New Place, New Faces===
Due to the crazy time flux and paradoxes that surround the castle, Izumi had dissappeared.. and when she reappeared she was back at the castle and many of the old inhabitants were gone. Those who were still left were Hiroshi, Matsumi, Sylph, [[Takeo]], Ryan, Raziel, [[Yukihana]], Kura, and a few others... Pepper, Konami, and unfortunately Akira were gone. Izumi however felt that there was still a chance Akira would show up too especially since many new people were showing up at the castle now. Izumi was able to get along with many of the new inhabitants, like Emilio and Judas... however there were a few new people that she DIDN'T get along with.. like [[Kuja]] and [[Safe]]. Izumi wanted to understand Kuja, because of the fact that her own cousin, Kura, was a demon. She understood that demon emotions were different than peoples' but many of the things Kuja did were just very unsettling to Izumi. For example, the fact that he tried to always play with her hair and liked to make her jump. To top it off, the more she would freak out at him, the more amused he would be and the more he would come to the castle to see/startle her. With Safe.. it was a constant rivalry. In Izumi's mind she believed that Safe seemed to have decided that Izumi was a spoiled brat that everyone wanted to kiss her butt, so he seemed to be more adamant to insult her and go against the crowd. In the end, Izumi just decided to ignore Safe for the most part and he would do the same thing... sometimes.

Izumi also took an interest in [[Gabriel]] who had also survived with the old castellians. She was interested in the fact that he was a pacifist and offered to help train him so he could be able to defend himself just in case. She took joy in making him do sit ups to hopefully work his abs and get stronger. She also would go on adventures with Emilio who seemed to be just as energetic and full of great ideas as she was. Though, out of all the new arrivals at the time.. the one that stuck out to Izumi the most was Genoise, better known as Gen. Gen was quiet, tall, nicely built, smart, and very sweet.. at first he reminded her a lot of Akira. Then Izumi got to know Gen more and more and he would sketch with her and she found out that he was a ninja as well, like her. Izumi asked Gen out to get pastries on an actual date and Gen accepted. Izumi was very nervous, stumbling on her words but Gen was very supportive. The date was going very well up until the end. Gen realized that if Izumi were to get close to him she would have to know something very important about him. Izumi was a little apprehensive but waited to hear what Gen had to say. The next moment was a shocker. Gen ripped off his clothes and stood in front of her wearing bondage leather with a garotte wire and a killing intent. Izumi freaked out. Unfortunately the relationship did not progress after that, being the fact that seeing Gen in such a state deeply bothered Izumi, Gen did not want to press it either.

Izumi continued being friends with Gen.. and continued to go on her crazy adventures. At this time, Izumi began training a few techniques with Kuja in preparation for the Hunters Exam. The training of course, wasn't free. Nothing was free with Kuja. The training was very humiliating, almost as bad as training for the Hiryuu Shoten Ha.. but Izumi endured. To top it off, Izumi was challenged to play a strip poker game with Emilio, Kuja, and Shinichiro. Izumi did not want to, but once she was given the ultimatum that she couldn't 'handle it', it was on. The results were hilarious and Kuja tried to cheat in order to see Izumi naked, but in the end.. Izumi won. ... much to her chagrin. Izumi had to stay over more at Kuja's place as one of the losing bets.. which made her and Kuja get closer and closer. Kuja finally admitted to her that she fascinated him as a human and he wanted to actually GET closer to her. Izumi was flattered, but.. she still felt wierd around him. She also didn't like the fact that Kuja always demanded things from her and never wanted to help her out as a friend. Oh well.

Izumi and Emilio continued their escapades. They even invited Urameshi Sin, a street punk and brother of [[Umino]] to come join them. Well. They didn't really invite him, he decided to crash on his own. Emilio came up with the idea of ditching him and Izumi agreed. Sin ended up getting bored and leaving on his own but the scheme Emilio had concocted with Izumi had backfired. He accidentally cast a fire spell on a department store and caused it to go up in flames. They both ran the scene as the fire department came to take care of the damages. Thankfully no one was hurt. However, now that this happened.. certain authorities were interested in Izumi and Emilio. They were somewhat aware that the ones responsible weren't any normal criminals and a few bounty hunters were given claims on the arest of Izumi and Emilio.

[[Axel]] was one of those bounty hunters. He came to the castle to collect the reward on Izumi and Emilio's heads. Once Izumi found out, she ran to Kuja for help and she suggested to him the possible idea of a disguise. Kuja agreed, this time for free.. but in reality the payment was the ability to play with Izumi's hair without having her freak out at him. Izumi was given a complete makeover thanks to Kuja.. however this did not really help keep Axel off of her back. Izumi and Emilio reasoned with Axel about how their case was innocent, and due to the help with the hunter organization and some strings pulled by Kuja.. the bounty was called off. Axel decided to stay. It was way more fun.

Slowly things were settling into a routine. Izumi had to unfortunately say goodbye to Gabriel who wouldn't tell her the details of why he had to leave.. other than he needed to step up for his kingdom. Izumi was upset.. and now at this point taking the blunt force of many of the retaliations of her suitors now that she had a boyfriend. She was bonked on the head with a mallet by Ratchet for hurting Emilio's feelings and lost Gabriel. Izumi also started distancing herself from Kuja who ended up pursing another girl at the castle. Izumi was fine with all of that though, as being with Axel brought forth many new things to do and learn. She learned that he was a big nerd and loved star trek and star wars and science. She didn't care for [[Takeo]] that much with his history with Konami but Axel and Takeo hit it off very well, partnering up for crazy inventions. However, Izumi still had her fear of intimacy. Kuja noted how Izumi, despite dating Axel.. wasn't really treating him different as they were when they were just hanging out as friends. She wouldn't kiss him, or do anything that normal boyfriends and girlfriends do. She responded that Axel didn't mind any of that and that he cared for her as a person.. not for her body. ...and that they HAD kissed before.. like. Twice.

After further talking with other castle members for advice.. Izumi was told that if she continued to be so distant to Axel, he would leave her. ..and that was probably one of the reasons why Akira left her in the first place. Izumi became mortified at this and torn. She didn't want to turn into Konami, but she also didn't want to lose Axel the way she lost Akira. Izumi did not have much time to ponder this though.. as there was something sinister brewin beyond the castle walls.

The next big arc was when the castle was attacked by a group of 'time traveling children'. The children attacked the castle folks and then dragged them 1000 years into the future. Matsumi, Takeo, [[Elisse]], Kamen, Akemi, Sylph, Ratchet, Emilio and a few others were stranded on a ship. They were able to meet a future Axel who had become a reknowned scientist as well as Judas who was the ship's captain. The crew was given a few tasks to perform before they would be able to head back home because all of them had been infected with a futuristic virus that in time would turn them into the same type of monsters as those 'children' they had met earlier, better known as the 'godless'. The group was assured that the Hyper Operational Persona Emulator (HOPE) project would be able to cure them. The gang eventually found the pieces needed to make HOPE operational but to their surprise the being in front of them was a soul-less looking cyborg made in Izumi's liking.. and with furthur questioning they found out that it WAS Izumi. Apparently Axel was forced to experiment with the remains of his 'future wife' to make a powerful weapon to fight the godless off. Many in the group, if not all, were appalled at what Axel had done. HOPE was apparently sentinent and did not forgive Axel for giving her the one thing that she had feared of having.. immortality. The group then was able to witness the final destruction of the godless, as well as HOPE before returning back to the castle in their normal times.

After a few more months of getting back into the zone, Izumi dissappeared again.. this time falling into the lake at the castle and appearing with old friends coming back and her new friends having dissappeared. She got to see Pepper, Eve, Kouji, and Akira again.. which was an extreme shock. Not sure what to believe, she was exstatic at seeing her boyfriend again. Hugging him tightly, she was a bit hurt when she realized that Akira was not responding the way she remembered him to. Being embarrassed and awkward, she realized that this must be another time warp that she fell into. She distanced herself a bit.. and got a better feel of the situation. She went again to speak with Akira and found out that while she had gone into three years off into the future, Akira was still the same way as he was before he turned human. [[File:Izu-sleep.jpg|250px|thumb|left|Izumi asleep in the section of the medbay set aside by [[Akira]].]]Izumi regretfully explained to Akira that things were different now and that they weren't a couple anymore.. she had waited for him as long as she could but now she had Axel, even if he wasn't there yet. Akira seemed to take the news well and a little formally, which made Izumi think even moreso that Akira and the 'her' that he remembers weren't that close and he probably forgot a few things. Akira assured her that he still remembered her but was acting the way he was to not insult her. Being confused, Izumi pondered her situation.. being torn with the past and the present.

After a few more months of getting back into the zone, Izumi dissappeared again.. this time falling into the lake at the castle and appearing with old friends coming back and her new friends having dissappeared. She got to see Pepper, Eve, Kouji, and Akira again.. which was an extreme shock. Not sure what to believe, she was exstatic at seeing her boyfriend again. Hugging him tightly, she was a bit hurt when she realized that Akira was not responding the way she remembered him to.

Izumi was a little hurt that Axel would leave her and that he didn't seem very surprised at seeing her again.. Matsumi noted Izumi's apprehension but explained to her that this sort of thing shouldn't matter too much. At least he was still here. But it DID matter to Izumi. She was tired of having the people closest to her wanting to leave.

It was during this time that Izumi began clashing heads with [[Naruhito|Naruhito Tachikawa]], a new arrival who seemed to be stuck in an ancient Chinese mindset. Naruhito insulted Izumi's state of dress and called into every flaw and self-doubt that she had. Izumi ran away in tears.. and locked herself in her room for a few days.. deciding to move out of the medlab since she did not want Akira to see her like this. Matsumi became concerned and suggested to Izumi to destroy the tree that Naruhito had built. Izumi agreed, thinking that would help her feel better. The two destroyed Naruhito's tree and despite that.. the tension between the two remained. Izumi constantly kept butting heads with Naruhito and tried to deter anyone from getting close to him, since in her mind he was a chauvenistic freak.

After mending through rough territory, Izumi and Axel spoke again and shared some very personal words to each other.. and then the two mended their differences although not going back out quite yet. While Axel suggested Izumi to move back in with him in the quarters he had made in the hangar, Izumi decided to stay in her own room for a while to help keep up her independence.
 +
 
 +
=== A New Adventure ===
 +
[[File:Izu-matsu-vespa.jpg|300px|thumb|right|Izumi and [[Matsumi]] pack up and leave the castle.. heading to [[The Inn]]!]]
 +
Due to building tension inside the castle, Izumi and Matsumi were no longer welcome at the castle grounds unless they agreed to serve under what they felt was a dictatorship management. Although it could have been a complete misunderstanding, both of them decided that the best course of action was to venture elsewhere. The pair packed their belongings (Matsumi taking the TV along too as collateral).. and then the two were off to find closer housing due to their acceptance to Tokyo University. Axle, Kuja, Pepper, Kamen and [[Hiro]] followed suit with their own purposes. After searching far and wide, eventually the pair learned of an old near abandoned [[Inn]] that had a pretty scary reputation of being housed by ghosts. Being fearless and deciding that this place might have something fun to offer (also it was dirt cheap), the two signed up for a room inside the Inn. Because the Inn was no longer fully furnished like the castle, Izumi and Matsumi decided to take jobs. Izumi met one of the local residents of the Inn, [[Shinshi Seta]] and after talking with him she persuaded him to put in a good word and land a job at the [[Everything Dragon Cafe]] as a waitress.
 +
 
 +
=== PARADIGM... what?! ===
 +
During her stay at the Inn, Izumi met more people. Some were friendlier than others, some were kind of strange. Izumi met a very interesting guy named [[Belle|Belle Hibiki]], a shy man named [[Daichi Niwa]] with an attractive counterpart named '''Dark''', and more. At first, Izumi was quickly annoyed by the constant rivalry between herself and Belle but she soon embraced his loud, passionate, and energetic attitude. Matsumi noticed it too and became interested in him. Izumi, being who she IS, suggested for Matsumi and Belle to date.. and they did though it ended awkwardly. Through growing confrontations and adventures, such as a weird ''ring'' incident, Belle and Izumi understood each other a little better in her mind.. and once Matsumi had left and Axle disappeared after his tryst with Sakura, Izumi found herself clashing with Belle more and more. To top things off, Izumi got into a sexually awkward scenario with [[Daichi Niwa|Dark]] kissing her and her in turn hurting him with a piledrive.. which made him have a little more distance from doing something like that again. People then started leaving and disappearing. A year or so passed and eventually those were still left at the Inn were given a proposal from [[PARADIGM]] to start working for them to stop dimensional disturbances. Izumi felt like that was up her alley as she remembered doing things like that back at the castle. However, she still kept her job at the Everything Dragon Cafe because she wanted to keep experiencing what it was like to just be a normal girl.
 +
 
 +
After a few missions, Izumi started becoming more comfortable with how things were shaping up at the Inn. Though Izumi witnessing [[Sagiko Tsukino]] kissing Belle after a mission deeply bothered her.. though she didn't know why. Some more people started showing up at the inn, too, notably a demon man named [[Aku]]. Izumi immediately felt fascinated by him because he was not only making her remember her cousin, Kura, but he was also a very tall and attractive guy. He had a quieter personally that deeply contrasted Izumi's loud one. The tension between Belle and Izumi continued to build up. He would often help her in missions and say things that made her feel like Belle was just like her. After a confession from Aku (and Izumi headbutting him..), Izumi felt like she was messing around with peoples' feelings again, she hurried to Belle to tell him what was on her mind before she felt like she would make another mistake. After the two talked, they agreed to start dating.
 +
 
 +
Things were going awkwardly at first.. actually. REALLY awkwardly. Izumi started pouring out all her expectations and fears right away to Belle because of her nature to speak her mind. Belle, not being used to this, started getting weirded out. He was also feeling awkward getting ''cutesy'' messages from her and things of that nature.. which bothered Izumi but she decided that she would try to make things work somehow. More missions passed and after a particular mission where Izumi noted that Aku had two male parents.. she asked Aku how it was possible for him to exist. She started hypothesizing on how Aku might have been grown in a tank and how she would one day like to conceive a child in the same manner. [[Unimaru]], a demon who had been listening, bluntly said that she was going to get dumped if she refused to be physical with the man she was with. Izumi ran away, upset. Later that evening she went to talk to Belle and spoke about what happened.. and again, Belle was weirded out by Izumi's insecurity with relationships and her attitude. He then confessed that maybe they shouldn't date anymore and his thoughts of her weren't like that of a couple and were more like family. ...and it was bothering him in CERTAIN WAYS. Izumi became upset again but tried to hide it, saying that if that was the case then they should just stick to being friends.
 +
 
 +
Now that Izumi has come to terms that she isn't like a typical girl, she resigned from the Everything Dragon Cafe and has decided to focus more of her time on training.
  
After mending through rough territory, Izumi and Axel spoke again and shared some very personal words to each other.. and then the two went back out. While Axel suggested Izumi to move back in with him, Izumi decided to stay in her own room for a while to help keep up her independence.
+
=== Girl of Water ===
 +
 
 +
After a while, things were calming down a bit more in Izumi's life and she got to meet many new people arriving to the Inn. During this time, Izumi hung out a few times with [[Faustlin Fontaine]] and became good friends with him.. she also got to hang out with one of her old school friends, [[Sakurai]], and see some of her other acquaintances from her homeworld like [[Zack|Zack Strife]], [[Prae Shinra]], and [[Venus Highwind]]. Things were progressing slowly with Izumi's training, too.. which was making Izumi anxious. Eventually there was a call for a mission where things of a supernatural nature were threatening to engulf all of Japan (Mission #23). Izumi arrived on the scene with [[Kamen]], [[Belle]], [[Daichi Niwa|Daichi]], Faustlin, Jackal, Prae, Hien, and Ryosuke. Immediately Izumi started to get weird visions in her mind and she was a little disoriented. She saw visions of a man fighting and droplets of rain were falling over her as well as the rest of the group.
 +
 
 +
The mission was long and painful.. eventually being double crossed by [[the Shiranami Five]] and coming across the '''Kegai no Tami''', people who claimed that they wanted to use Izumi's blood to summon more monsters that were taking over Japan. None of the group agreed to such a plan and another fight ensued. In this battle Kamen used his fire attacks, Ryosuke used is Earth attacks, and Izumi used the ability she had from Leviathan. The water from Leviathan stopped [[Higa]], the leader of the Kegai no Tami, from using his explosive fire attack seeds. Just as the battle was about to be over, a man who called himself [[Kamuro Ishigami]] appeared and said that he would help to protect the Girl of Water from having her blood spilled. The Kegai no Tami then retreated with [[Ain]] and Kamuro with his friend, Beniguma, asked to join PARADIGM to help stop the Kegai no Tami's plans.
 +
 
 +
=== Gradually Close, Then Far and Gone ===
 +
 
 +
Izumi still felt a little awkward with intimacy but from the memories of the Girl of Water and Kamuro's kindness, the two grew closer together and eventually pursued a relationship. Izumi felt safe and like she could trust him; and due to his innocent nature she didn't have that inherent fear or worry that he would do anything to harm her. Kamuro seemingly accepted everything about Izumi and at first she ignored Kamen's advice in where he told her that there was a possibility that Kamuro was merely in love with the Girl of Water and it could have been anyone. Eventually, Izumi voiced that concern to Kamuro and he said he understood where she was coming from, but even if there was not anything between the Girl of Water or the Man of Earth, Kamuro believed that he would still feel the same. After that point, they started raising their intimacy.. and things were going very well between them for many months. During this time she met many new people as well: a synth named [[Letty Carmichael]] and an electricity mage named [[Xander Dreyar]]. Izumi became fast friends with Letty, and eventually also with Xander. With Letty she was slightly reminded of her first boyfriend, Akira.. and with Xander he decided to help give her some guidance with her Water magic training by introducing her to [[Atticus Fullbuster]], another water mage. Izumi also became rather protective of Letty after going on an investigation to the One Piece World where he wanted to learn more about a Devil Fruit he had ingested. Letty, being of a synth nature, was suggested to be sent to another doctor.. though the only transportation available for him would require him to be in 'smaller form'. He was then chainsawed to pieces and while Izumi was horrified at the idea, she was even more perturbed at Prae Shinra watching the ordeal and eating snacks. This issue did not come up again until a lot later.
 +
 
 +
Things progressed normally at the Inn and eventually a call was made for an agent to investigate a city over-ridden with crime called ''The End''. Izumi had experience with stealth and espionage, so she was called for the mission and accepted it. It was at The End where she first met [[Gradius]], a group of three individuals who had made a pact together to take down all the crime existing in that city. Izumi stayed with Gradius for a while, becoming fast friends with [[Elias Jerico]], [[Jimmy 'The Left' O'Toole]], [[Shannon Moore]], and their father figure, ''Darren Elway''. Izumi joined Gradius on a few intel missions, finding herself particularly drawn to Elias due to their passion with martial arts and training. Finally the big payoff mission happened and Gradius was called to a warehouse where a man named ''Dietrich Weber'' was waiting. Dietrich had planned to grab one of the Gradius members to facilitate his plan in creating the Ultimate Life Form. As Gradius continued room after room of weapons and boobie traps, the members were injured or forced to stay behind until it was just Izumi and Elias left. Dietrich then explained that the one he had been searching for had been Elias and Izumi then realized that this operation that Dietrich wanted to do would in essence create Letty. Izumi still could not agree to leave Elias behind so together they fought Dietrich off and he fled. Izumi then left Gradius and returned to the Inn... and was pleased to find out Letty was alright. Not all news was pleasant, however, because around this time Belle had apparently left PARADIGM.. and joined Inspiratio. Izumi believed that Belle had left because of his curse seal and she made a vow to herself that she would do whatever it took to get him back.
 +
 
 +
A few grueling encounters then ensued... and in one of them, Izumi faced against [[Odio]], a powerful vampire. Izumi summoned Neo Bahamut against him and Odio slew the dragon in one fell swoop, nullifying the summon. Izumi was crestfallen that her summon was destroyed... even when Odio left, she still felt empty.

*Rokushiki techniques
 +
**''Soru'': The Soru (剃る Soru, literally meaning "Shave") allows the users to move at extremely high speeds in order to avoid attacks, as well as to attack at higher speeds and with greater power. It was revealed that the principle of this move was to kick off the ground at least ten times in the blink of an eye.
 +
**''Geppo'': The Geppo (月歩 Geppō, literally meaning "Moon Step") allows the users to actually jump off the air itself, allowing them to stay in the air for much longer than usual. Members can use this technique to cross great distances without ever touching the ground, or set themselves up for swift, aerial attacks. While the technique itself affords several advantages in both in and out of battle for the user, it has but one major weakness: since its usage depends heavily on the user's legs, restraining or pinning down any major parts of their lower body can significantly disrupt Geppo.
 +
**''Diable Jambe'': The Diable Jambe (悪魔風脚 (ディアブルジャンブ), literally meaning "Devil Leg") is the kick fighting style learned from the All Blue Cook, Sanji. When Izumi utilizes this style she heats up her leg, adding extreme heat to the impact of her kicks. In this form, Izumi, due to the high temperature has the ability to burn her opponents. While like this, she can light her opponent on fire.
 +
 +
*'''Nanto Suicho Ken''': (南斗水鳥拳, South Dipper Waterbird Fist, also translated as South Dipper Waterfowl Fist) a form of Nanto Seiken represented by its successor, [[Reiji]]. Its movements are compared to a graceful water bird, however, its destructive power is without equal and can slaughter enemies with its devastating slicing techniques. It allows Izumi to slash at enemies with her fingertips from a distance, with near-invisible blades of wind.<br>
 +
**'''Nanto Suicho Ken - Hisshou Hakurei''': (飛翔白麗, Soaring White Grace)㊙: Izumi performs a single, graceful looking somersault. As she lands, her hands slices horizontally to the front, slicing through the opponent's shoulders, with tremendous impact, all the way down to the ground, through the body.<br>
 +
 +
*'''Hellzone Grenade - Ultimate Attack''': Only to be used at either the expense of massive amounts of ki, or while in a state of desperation (low health, heavy damage, etc). Hellzone Grenade allows the user to unleash several dozen balls of ki towards a target. The target can easily dodge them, though moving forwards is very hard due to the speed and frequency of the ki blasts at launch. Once all of the blasts have been launched, the ki blasts hover in place, then the user can collapse them onto the single target, unleashing immense damage onto them. This is a finishing blow, and is likely to kill any opponent who isn't immeasurably strong.

Appearance

When Izumi was fifteen years old, she sported short hairstyle similar to Nabiki's. She also wore a blue-themed ninja outfit (blue chinese styled top and blue pleated skirt). Izumi continued to keep that outfit until her later teens and then she was forced to change her appearance due to being wanted for an arson crime that accidentally happened to a department store in downtown Tokyo.

Izumi's new look was having longer hair which was colored to a lighter brown and her outfit was changed to a red chinese-style top, grey pleated skirt, orange arm guards, and black boots. Sometimes, if the weather permits, Izumi rather wears tan colored shorts and a green tank top with black sandal-flipflops.

Personality

Energetic. Incredibly energetic. Fun-loving, optimistic.. goofy. Silly. Also incredibly uncomfortable with any sexual situations!

Background

Adventurous and strong, Izumi Saotome is a Martial Artist, Just like her parents.. [show details]

Special Abilities

(These are skills, things that can be learned or trained, like martial arts techniques, Jutsu or magic spells. Abilities that are outside the norm of regular humans, but only because they have not had access to them.)

  • Katchu Tenshin Amiguriken
  • Mouko Takabisha
  • Hiryu Shoten Ha
  • Limit Break - All Creation
  • Mouko-ken Ki Fist technique
  • Air Dance flying Technique (never uses this. edit: okay, she has now.)
  • Neko-ken.. *DEATHLY* afraid of cats.
  • Hunter techniques
    • Ten - Aura control
    • Ren - project emotions/scare -- Gyo using Ren to sense by intensifying aura in a part of the body. For sensing, it goes to the eyes but leaves other parts vulnerable. -- En advanced form of Ren/Ten. Able to feel shape/movement around them (around 50m radius). it is taxing/draining to use constantly.
    • Zetsu - cloaking yourself
    • Nen - ki
    • Hatsu - projection of Nen
  • Rei gun: Due to spiritual training with Sin, Izumi can harness spiritual power into her ki blasts. However she does not pinpoint it into a single finger shot.. rather, she focuses it into her palms and fires it like a Mouko Takabisha shot.
  • Rokushiki techniques
    • Soru: The Soru (剃る Soru, literally meaning "Shave") allows the users to move at extremely high speeds in order to avoid attacks, as well as to attack at higher speeds and with greater power. It was revealed that the principle of this move was to kick off the ground at least ten times in the blink of an eye.
    • Geppo: The Geppo (月歩 Geppō, literally meaning "Moon Step") allows the users to actually jump off the air itself, allowing them to stay in the air for much longer than usual. Members can use this technique to cross great distances without ever touching the ground, or set themselves up for swift, aerial attacks. While the technique itself affords several advantages in both in and out of battle for the user, it has but one major weakness: since its usage depends heavily on the user's legs, restraining or pinning down any major parts of their lower body can significantly disrupt Geppo.
    • Diable Jambe: The Diable Jambe (悪魔風脚 (ディアブルジャンブ), literally meaning "Devil Leg") is the kick fighting style learned from the All Blue Cook, Sanji. When Izumi utilizes this style she heats up her leg, adding extreme heat to the impact of her kicks. In this form, Izumi, due to the high temperature has the ability to burn her opponents. While like this, she can light her opponent on fire.
  • Nanto Suicho Ken: (南斗水鳥拳, South Dipper Waterbird Fist, also translated as South Dipper Waterfowl Fist) a form of Nanto Seiken represented by its successor, Reiji. Its movements are compared to a graceful water bird, however, its destructive power is without equal and can slaughter enemies with its devastating slicing techniques. It allows Izumi to slash at enemies with her fingertips from a distance, with near-invisible blades of wind.
    • Nanto Suicho Ken - Hisshou Hakurei: (飛翔白麗, Soaring White Grace)㊙: Izumi performs a single, graceful looking somersault. As she lands, her hands slices horizontally to the front, slicing through the opponent's shoulders, with tremendous impact, all the way down to the ground, through the body.
  • Hellzone Grenade - Ultimate Attack: Only to be used at either the expense of massive amounts of ki, or while in a state of desperation (low health, heavy damage, etc). Hellzone Grenade allows the user to unleash several dozen balls of ki towards a target. The target can easily dodge them, though moving forwards is very hard due to the speed and frequency of the ki blasts at launch. Once all of the blasts have been launched, the ki blasts hover in place, then the user can collapse them onto the single target, unleashing immense damage onto them. This is a finishing blow, and is likely to kill any opponent who isn't immeasurably strong.

Powers & Merits

(Unique, or hereditary, in-born powers, whether due to genetics or magic, things that can't be taught to others or simply gifted to this person from an outside force. Powers based on weapons should go in the Items.)

  • Girl of Water - Being the Girl of Water, Izumi is able to use water-based attacks and techniques if she's around Kamuro or in the world where the Kegai no Tami originate from.
    • Water Dragon Slayer: Helped taught to her by Atticus and Xander, Izumi gains the power and characteristics of Leviathan, along with the signature ability of Dragon Slayers to eat external sources of her element to heal herself and regain power, thus making her immune to water attacks. She can also breathe under water.
    • Water Dragon's Roar: Izumi's version of the signature Dragon Slayers' attack, she generates water in her mouth and releases it in a concentrated, destructive blast, capable of destroying everything in a wide area in front of her.

She also has makou-poisoning. It's not a power, but anything related to that affects her.

Guardian Force

Anima, wrapped in chains, and takes in the pains and suffering of the living.
  • Anima
    • Pain A non-elemental attack that targets all enemies. After Anima is summoned via an anchor hook that 'pulls' it out of the ground with chains. Anima charges energy into it's eyes and mouth and then a dark, large blast of energy explodes around the targets.
    • Oblivion The target is dragged underground and the bottom half of Anima breaks out of it's chains, glowing energy into it's fists and then dealing a devastating, multiple punching combo on them.

  • Twin Dragons - A pair of nunchaku stylized between Bahamut and Leviathan on each end. Greatly enhances water magic used while they're being wielded, gives a slight weakness/stun when hit with electric attacks. Each hit is enhanced with non-elemental magical power, increasing with every successful landed blow in a row. Has the standard KH keychain hanging from the connecting chain. Counts as a magical weapon and can hit things normal weapons can't (i.e. ghosts and any beings immune to non-magical weapons). This weapon was received from Mission/Campaign #185

Merits

Self-Confident (5): One free re-roll during a mission, due to the strength of your self-confidence. This only comes into effect regarding rolls at difficulty 6 or higher.

Catlike Balance (2): -2 difficulty to rolls relating to balance.

Innocent (2): You have an aura of childlike innocence (whether you really are or not). -2 difficulty on rolls involving Subterfuge or Manipulation.

Double-Jointed (1): -2 difficulty on any roll involving flexibility.

Items of Note

  • Nanchaku, kunai, throwing stars, remedies, tents, ph, random nostalgic crap, etc..
  • Time watch: Crafted for her by Robert, Izumi can use this watch to portal in places she has already visited. Not meant to use for battle, just for transportation purposes.
  • Ribbon: She usually forgets she has this though.. gotten with Safe when traveling through their worlds. It wasn't easy :(
  • Leaf Box: Gotten from Mission #93. One use only.. will change her into Leaf-form until struck. used in Mission #276
  • Frog Coin: It's a frog coin. Received at Mission #278
  • Unicorn Glider - When falling from a considerable height - if equipped and taken, the glider will trigger! Allowing the user to gently float down to the ground. Received at Mission #287
  • Battle Royale Crown - Received at Mission #287

Weaknesses

Incredible fear of cats. Also gets airsick, carsick, seasick... yeah.

Flaws

Curiosity (2): Your incredible curiosity often overrides your common sense. Resisting temptation requires a successful Wits roll, difficulty depending on the situation. A very bad flaw to take with certain evil sadistic GMs.

Phobia of CATS (3): You have a specific, incredibly powerful fear. The 3 point version, you must succeed a willpower roll or be incapacitated by your fear, or if appropriate.. roll or enter a frenzy/flip-out.

Overconfident (1): You think you can do everything even though you probably can't, and you try to prove your belief as often as possible.

Otherworldly Taint MAKOU EYES (2): You have a physical peculiarity (odd hair/eye color, glowing eyes, etc.) and/or just an odd aura about you which may make you stick out. Someone who suspects you're not "normal" may make a Perception + Awareness roll, difficulty 7, to determine what you are.

Dark Secret "Konami Incident" (1): There's something about you which you don't want people to know, and it would be very bad if they did (or at least you think it would be).

Compulsion "Gettin' Rich" (1): You have a specific compulsion which may cause you problems. You have to spend a temporary Willpower point to fight the compulsion for a short time.

NPC(s) to go with char

none.
