CHARACTER NAME: Futaba Sakura
CANON: Persona 5
AGE/AU AGE: 15
HERO/VILLAIN ALIAS: Oracle
OCCUPATION: Support/Student
PERSONALITY:
- She suffers from social anxiety. Although currently she is in the process of attempting to "cure" herself by going out into the world/forcing herself to go to school it's still a thing for her. When she gets too overwhelmed she finds small places to hide in such as a closet or hides behind a person she trusts.
- Childish and prone to teasing her friends. Often pouts over little things like not having her favorite foods or certain someones touching her action figure collection.
- Playful though sometimes a little cruel with her jokes.
- A literal genius with technology. She loves messing around with all kinds of tech and is quite the expert hacker. She's done everything from infiltrating a locked chatroom to planting a bug inside someone's cell phone.
- She is largely still disconnected from the outside world. She is primarily an internet dweller who is use to having her interactions on a computer screen. Placed in a real world situation makes her come across as awkward and unsure of herself.
- She lacks self confidence and still beats herself up over small things. She gets frustrated by her own anxiety. Her determination to overcome it is strong but she's too hard on herself when she fails to meet the goals for it that she's set for herself.
- A huge nerd. She makes video game and meme references in casual speech without batting an eye. She has a collection of action figures too.
- She would do anything for food. She also really loves cats.
HISTORY:
- Futaba was raised by a single mother who was researching quirks. Her research made several important breakthroughs in understanding how quirks work and their affects the users. She began this research when it was discovered Futaba had a quirk.
- On their journey home after shopping one day a car struck and killed Futaba's mother. She used her body to shield Futaba so she came away with only a few bruises. However the trauma of witnessing her mother's death and that her mother died protecting her caused Futaba to withdraw from the world. She locked herself up in her room. She began to live a hikikomori lifestyle from then on.
- Her mother's boyfriend at the time began to look after her the best he could. He made sure she ate and stayed safe. Futaba struggled with suicidal depression, self loathing and a serious crisis of self.
- She found inspiration in the tales of the various heroes in the world and how they could overcome any obstacle. She began reading stories on the internet and following certain heroes on their adventures through fan websites and news articles. When one of the heroes she followed is killed Futaba finds herself angry rather than sad. Knowing of her own quirk and recognize its potential to prevent any more needless deaths she makes the choice to attend school and learn to utilize it.
- After some rehabilitation learning to cope with her sadness and agoraphobia Futaba managed to finally leave her room to enroll at school.
QUIRK:
Kaja
Futaba's primary role in Persona 5 is a navigator and support to the main team. Her quirk here focuses on her ability to buff her party members.
- Matarukaja: Temporarily enhances a hero's offensive quirk. This can be anything from shortening an ability's "cooldown" timer to simply making the ability stronger. This ability does not negate any negative effects that might come from using the quirk too much or by making it too strong. If the ability is hard on the user's body or mind this enhanced state could make that all the worse.
- Marakukaja: Temporarily enhances a hero's defensive quirk. It works exactly like Matarukaja (positives and negatives) however it will enhance quirks that are more defensive in nature. This includes healing quirks.
- Masukukaja: Temporarily enhances a hero's agility, making dodging easier and throwing out hits in rapid succession possible. This can be used on any hero regardless of their quirk type because it is purely based on physical movement/ability. This buff does not enhance a user's quirk in any way. Unlike the other two it is less likely to put any strain on the target unless they abuse it.
- She has no offensive capability to speak of. She isn't able to fend off any direct attacks by herself. Her only option if confronted would be to try and make a fast getaway.
-These skills cannot be used on herself.
COSTUME: HERE
The goggles are the primary part of the costume. The rest of it is just for fun/show. The goggles allow her to read the type of quirk of her target (offensive or defensive) so she can dish out the appropriate enhancement.
