Mutsuki Chiharano

==Profile==
===Appearance===
Mutsuki has green eyes and slate blue hair, tied in a ponytail with a yellow scrunchie with pink "clacker ball" ornaments. Mutsuki has a chocobo and a moogle keychain on her backpack. According to the Rubicus, Mutsuki is 15 years old and 4'9" tall. While she uses bombs as weapons and hoists a backpack full of them, her concept art shows that on the field she uses a summoning platform to portal through more powerful official military grade bombs.
===Personality===
Mutsuki is a genius inventor of Class Twelfth and keeps a supply of homemade bombs handy. She has a paranoid personality and is trigger-happy with her bombs, causing many to avoid her.
==Story==
===Final Fantasy Agito===
She can be found in the Sixth Arms Research institute during the afternoon and evening.
===Final Fantasy Type-0===
Mutsuki's parents were famous researchers at Akademeia prior to being killed by Militesi spies. The textbooks of Akademeia were written by Mutsuki's parents. Mutsuki is found in the research labs; when King and Seven meet her, she believes they are trying to bully her and threatens them with a bomb. When Mutsuki realizes the bomb is unfinished, she runs off, threatening to get back at them later.
Before the big battle against the Militesi-Concordian coalition, Mutsuki is unhappy the cadets must hand over their Knowing Tags to the administration before the battle, seeing it as a way to cripple one's morale is even the administration expects them to die.
When Seven and Cinque ponder how they can blow up a building without hurting those around it, Seven takes King to go see Mutsuki. Mutsuki asks to see the building's blue prints and adjusts the explosives accordingly. Seven and King thank her, and, seeing their sincerity, Mutsuki promises to help if Class Zero ever needs her.
When Tempus Finis begins, Queen and Trey find Mutsuki is still making bombs, convinced the Rursan Reavers have come to bully her, determined to destroy them with everything she has. Queen comments that a time like this Mutsuki's conviction is comforting.
In the alternate ending, Queen, Deuce, and Cinque gossip about the rumor that Mutsuki is in a relationship with Ace.
==Gameplay==
===Final Fantasy Type-0===
Like a number of students at Akademeia, Mutsuki can join Class Zero as one of their allies through various sidequests. When Class Zero is assigned a mission requiring expertise with precision bombing, they can ask Mutsuki to help them fulfill the request. When they praise her expert knowledge of bombs and explosions after completing the mission, she will join Class Zero.
===Final Fantasy Awakening===
Mutsuki is playable, but is one of the weakest along with Cater, Eight, Nine, and Trey. She throws homemade bombs as her special skills to damage enemies. Her strongest skill is to throw a poison bomb on her enemy to deal poison damage. She is not useful in later chapters as her throwing skills are succeeded by Kazusa Futahito who can throw chemical bottles on his enemies.
