**Yuki** is a character created by theryanjake11 who appears in the HydroVerse series of comics and is the cold-hearted cousin of Hydro-Girl who originates from the ice regions of the planet Aqua-Irava, Yuki always believed she lived in the shadow of her cousin Hydro-Girl and hated it when people mistook her for the demigoddess.

Yuki only took a liking to Earth due to the fact that it occasionally shares the same environmental requirements as the ice regions of Aqua-Irava. Yuki hates humans incredibly even hating it when Hydro-Girl revealed she had one (Kevin) as a friend, she would most likely kill a human if she was in the right mood.

## History

### Early Life

Yuki was born and raised in the ice regions of Aqua-Irava but developed a love for being alone and away from the other Aqua-Iravian people, giving her a negative attitude towards everyone who tries to speak to her or even come within inches of her.

As a child, Yuki looked forward to her mother taking her up to the icy mountains of their home as she was mesmerized by the size and naturally felt a connection with them. Upon reaching adulthood, Yuki became very reserved and often kept to herself after losing contact with her mother. She also took to hiding away in dark caves around the ice region, avoiding contact with others.

### Arrival to Earth

In 1985 after Hydro-Girl began her hibernation within the crystal caves of Aqua-Irava, Omeka went to see Yuki and task her with travelling to Earth in order to carry out Hydro-Girl's usual reporting much to Yuki's dismay. Not wanting to defy the goddess of Aqua-Irava herself, Yuki reluctantly agreed and travelled to Earth.

Landing in the snowy regions on the outskirts of a small town, Yuki strangely took a liking to the environment around her and began hiding out in the white forests and tried to remain hidden from humans in the area but she would occasionally watch them out of curiosity.

### Meeting Zack

Yuki eventually rested by freezing herself into a shiny statue inside a cave, but she was soon discovered by a young runaway named Zack. After touching the statue's leg, Zack watched as the ice statue began glowing and revealed an unusual being.

Yuki spotted the young human who was covering his eyes and picked him up by his face, mocking him in the process as he pleaded for her not to hurt him. The grinning Yuki dropped him and he landed on the grass and attempted to express that it was nice to meet her. Yuki then questioned him as to why he was closing his eyes, and Zack recalled how his mother told him not to look at nude ladies. A shocked Yuki misinterprets this as him calling her ugly, but Zack quickly reassures her that he thinks that she is pretty.

### Meetup with Hydro-Girl

Upon arriving in Russia to track down the Day Wolf known as Lilith, Hydro-Girl bumped into Yuki who expressed disgust at Hydro-Girl's friendship with a human (Kevin) and even commented on her cousin's inability to make friends with her enemies. Hydro-Girl asked Yuki if she had seen Lilith around, but Yuki proves to be of no assistance.

### Encounter with Victoria

After losing her home Stylite Park to the evil spirit known as Deimos, Victoria Grant travels to Norway to escape and travels to the snowy woodlands where she finds a small abandoned building and heads inside for warmth and meditation. Victoria meets a woman inside, but the woman instantly expresses distrust in Victoria and asks her to leave. Victoria tries to reason with her but is caught by the throat by the woman.

The woman's skin then turns purple and she transforms into Yuki, who reveals that she moved to Norway because of the Day Wolf incident in Russia. Victoria attempts to plead with Yuki who still had her by the throat, stating that she will leave but will have to find a place of warmth nearby. Yuki then questions Victoria's intentions of coming here and that she doesn't like trespassers, to which Victoria answers that she will instead go to the other forest far away from here.

Yuki allows this and lets Victoria go, but warns that she does not want to see her snooping around this area again.
