Izuna (Izuna)

==Summary==
Izuna is the titular character and protagonist of the video game Izuna: Legend of the Unemployed Ninja and its sequel. She’s a young kunoichi who still believes in the values of ninjas despite their diminished impact as time went on. Found and raised by Gen-An in a ninja clan, she learned and developed many skills and techniques with her natural talent and became good friends with fellow kunoichi Shino. Izuna is selfish, stubborn, greedy, lazy, and rarely pays heed to warnings and advice, but is also friendly, cheerful, compassionate, encouraging of others, and has natural charisma. Since Shino, Gen-An, Mitsumoto, and she got kicked from their jobs at Mugen Castle, they’ve been looking for a place for Gen-An to rest.

Attack Potency: At least Town level (Scales to Abyss' feat of generating an earthquake felt across the entire region), Higher with weapons and some offensive talismans, (Even with a weak weapon, Izuna's offensive and defensive capacities are far higher than without one (at the very least x2, even stronger with more powerful weapons); Some talismans unleash elements or energy capable of one-shotting even the strongest monsters). Some weapons and talismans ignore durability
Speed: Superhuman running speed (Can cross a large dungeon room in a second), faster with Haste Boots (Doubles her speed), Subsonic combat/reaction speed (Can dodge arrows at point-blank range), up to Subsonic+ (Some talismans and weapons increase combat speed by x2 and x3), Faster casting speed/attack speed (Can cast spells and techniques faster than enemies can react, including other gods)
Lifting Strength: Peak Human (Can casually lift Shuuchi)
Striking Strength: At least Town level, Higher with weapons and some offensive talismans. Some weapons and talismans ignore durability
Durability: At least Town level, Higher with weapons and defensive talismans (Took hits from Abyss)
Stamina: Superhuman (She has received extensive ninja training by Gen-An since childhood, allowing her to keep fighting even after getting severely beat up or having her stamina drained. She was still standing after going through a 40-floor dungeon and fighting Takushiki in a row. In the sequel, she traversed mountains and a dungeon filled with disease-inflicting air particles caused by Abyss)
Range: Extended Melee Range with swords, claws, and boots; Tens of Meters with ranged weapons and energy manipulation; Hundreds of Meters with some talismans
Standard Equipment: Talismans, several weapons (swords, claws, armguards, boots, shuriken, kunai, caltrops, bombs), staves, healing items and pills
Intelligence: Average and sometimes air-headed out of combat, but Gifted in combat, very capable, observant and adaptable when in action. She's easily capable of fooling enemies as smart as her and has even caught experienced fighters and gods with centuries of experience off guard, thanks to her raw skill, unpredictability and the impression of foolishness and powerlessness she unconsciously gives off. She also has good charisma despite her personality.
Weaknesses: She can be hot-headed at times, though mostly out of combat. Talismans cost Spirit Points to use (SP) that Izuna has a limit of. Every time she gets hit, she loses 1 SP. The lower her SP gauge is, the weaker her attacks will be (Those aspects are likely exaggerated for gameplay balance purposes).
Feats: She defeated all six Gods of Kamiari Village on 1-vs-1 fights in the first game. She defeated the seven foreign Gods of the West in the second game.
