**Amiris** is the Maelstromic Goddess of Death and Darkai's successor.

At first, Amiris seems like a laid-back and far more lively iteration of a shikigami (god of death). It's worth noting that Amiris doesn't exactly kill nor does she take pleasure in it. Her job is to guide newly-deceased souls to their designated location in the afterlife. She also lectures souls, oftentimes the ones in purgatory, of what they did wrong and why they should redeem themselves. Amiris wouldn't refer to herself as "merciful", but as "fair".

However, Amiris reveals a much more chaotic nature and brings up mass murder when faced with a difficult decision. Despite her patience and tolerance, Amiris has limits and encourages comrades to not push it.

## Powers and Abilities

### Powers

* **Scythe Mastery** - Amiris is extremely proficient in utilizing her scythe Rengoku, the primary weapon of any shikigami. Despite her relatively short height, Amiris can utilize Rengoku's complete potential without error. She can cut, spin, and release a flurry of chained attacks from the blade alone. Amiris combines quickness and accuracy to create a torrent of slashes from mid to close range while remaining untouchable, or execute one lone enemy.
* **Insanity** - As the embodiment of death, Amiris can shift the burden of deceased souls to herself. She can amass power from the sins and negative emotions of the souls in purgatory, which makes her all the more stronger. These can be defined by changes in her appearance, which grow more noticeable with as more power is being absorbed: Scleras fading into a deep-black. Bright pink eyes with a strong glow. Substances that morph her arms into monstrous claws, also capable of merging with her scythe. Finally, her mouth seemingly being torn apart after it was sealed shut, leaving Amiris with a bloodied, crooked smile. As Insanity levels shoot up, so does her power. But Amiris must also be cautious of having so much Insanity for such a long time that she can paralyze her entire body instantly.

### Techniques

* **Scythe Cyclone** - Amiris brings Rengoku overhead and super-sizes it, making it spin rapidly above her palm. The scythe can take up several meters in radius, allowing Amiris to cut down all things around her in one single rotation of her weapon. Amiris can also dash while executing this technique.
* **Shred Chaser** - Rengoku splits itself up into smaller lesser copies of itself suspended in mid-air. Each lesser scythe will spin in place and take aim at whatever Amiris is targeting. Once deployed, each scythe will move in an instant linear path. There is no known number of scythes Amiris can create at once, but just a handful of them can be lethal.
* **Memento Mori** - A Latin phrase that translates "remember that you [have to] die". This is a special attack that "marks" a specific group of targets over no more than 1000 meters. With a snap of her fingers, marked targets will rapidly began to stagger and deteriorate into piles of ash. Victims will lose consciousness moments before the body finally gives out and disintegrates.

## Equipment

* **Scythe Shell: Rengoku** - According to mythology, when a new shikigami is formed, the empty version of the scythe called "a shell" transforms and grants itself properties according to the new god's desires. The shell itself is very powerful on its own, but will possess no special enhancements if a shikigami doesn't take it up. In Amiris' case, following Darkai's erasure, the scythe reverted back into a shell and re-transformed into her custom scythe, in which Amiris named "Rengoku". As the name suggests, Rengoku is purgatory, the realm where deceased souls and sinners undergo temporary suffering before being able to enter heaven.
