[Tracker] Yumiko

Forgotten Blade
Forgotten Blade is a katana of an unknown grade. It has an onyx-colored blade with a simple oval guard, a black grip decorated with a red diamond pattern and a red scabbard decorated by three lines near the mouth. It is incredibly sharp and unseathing it brings uneasy shivers to the wielder. Thus she believes it to be cursed, yet feels a strange sense of kinship towards it all the same. A gift from a mysterious soul, she often wonders about its origin and purpose.

Favorite Kimono
Yumiko wears the traditional garbs of the Wano Country. Her favorite piece is the off-white, ever so slightly greenish kimono with long and large sleeves. It reminds her of home. As it is just a simple piece of clothing, the actual protection it offers is minimal. It too is loose enough to fit her even when she transforms.

Trusty Hip Flask
To combat homesickness, Yumiko carries a small, silver hip flask filled with sake imported from Wano Country. She occasionally takes a small sip to dull the pain, both physical and mental.

Devil Fruit: Ita Ita no Mi (Weasel-Weasel Fruit), Model: Kamaitachi
Ita Ita no Mi (Weasel-Weasel Fruit), Model: Kamaitachi grants the eater the ability to transform fully or partially into the mythical creature Kamaitachi. When fully transformed, the user becomes a weasel about the size of a tall human, with massive, curved claws that resemble sickles. Thus the name "Sickle Weasel". Her claws and even the tip of her tail are as sharp as swords. In addition to traditional Zoan attributes, such as sharp animal senses, the mythical creature also has some supernatural abilities. As the legends tell, a Kamaitachi can move at incredible speeds, manipulate winds and cause cuts that do not bleed.

Yumiko’s fighting style is a combination of traditional Wano Country swordsmanship and her Kamaitachi abilities. ...As well as dramatic speeches and grand declarations. She transitions from zero blades to six blades depending on the situation and transformation. The style focuses on speed above all else. Each and every attack must flow swiftly like the wind she represents. Power is sacrificed in favor of numerous attacks. Death by a thousand cuts is her motto.

In human form, she wields a single sword and focuses on chasing her target. When she slashes, the blade draws shining afterimages in the air. The resulting cuts are thin and clean, rarely drawing much blood. She can also launch crescent blades of wind to create flying slashes. This variant is best suited for dueling lone opponents.

Hybrid form, as the name suggests, is where her fighting style and physical form both gain animalistic attributes. Her hands turn into claws, replacing the sword. Tiny gusts of slicing winds accompany each attack, essentially doubling the number of potential cuts. This variant is best suited for facing multiple foes at once.

When fully transformed, she gains four additional blades with her teeth, legs and tail. Thus the number of her blades essentially increases to six. She unleashes the full destructive power of her wind manipulation, summoning whirlwinds and heavy gusts to throw people off-balance. This variant is best suited for facing entire mobs.

Due to stirring dust and water vapor, the manipulated winds are always faintly visible. Even to a naked eye. Depending on her environment, white, gray or brownish streaks appear to dance in the air.
