Utami Widyawati Rachman

*"I don't know [who I am]. If you want words, I can provide them: Utami Widyawati Rachman, shaman, kalamat, 'heroine' -- all these things thrown at me. If you want to know more, then I'm afraid you'll have to find out for yourself, Great Spirit. Watch me and see."*

**Utami Widyawati Rachman** (アタミー・ウィドイワッティー・ラクマン *Atamī Ūidoiwattī Rakuman*) is the missing member of Class 4, the younger brother of the Culto de Tsara's Hippocampo reincarnated by the machinations of the Heavens in the Southern Soul Society. Discovered among the Sama-Bajau of the region, she served as their *kalamat*/shaman until being summoned to Mag Mel, where she reunited with her original classmates.

She currently has allied with the Titan of warriors, Tiamat, who serves as her personal spirit.

## Powers & Abilities

### Natural Abilities

**Enhanced Physiology**: Reincarnated as a member of the Sama-Bajau, Utami naturally possesses physical abilities and capabilities that the average, baseline human does not. Similar to Knave, she may be considered a sort of 'Plus Ultra'.

* **Increased Lung Capacity**: With the rest of her people, Utami possesses much more robust lungs than the ordinary human or human spirit. This enables her to yell louder and farther, speak more quickly (or with more gravity), as well as run faster, swim longer, and overall demonstrate more endurance at physical exertion than even some trained, less genetically-predisposed humans.
* **Large Spleen**: Utami's spleen is larger than that of a normal human being's, allowing it to increase the amount of oxygen that is available for her blood. Put together with the above, it allows Utami to function without oxygen for longer periods of time.

### Spiritual Abilities

**Resonance Master** (共振 *kyoshin*): A phenomenon unique as a fundamental in the Southern Soul Society, Resonance allows one to match their energies with their environment, that of a weapon, and other possible targets in order to take advantage of the unique effects that arise as a result. It is useful for communication, movement, and indeed combat -- Utami, having been trained in the art since 'birth', is naturally quite adept at the art, and is the most specialized in it out of all Class 4, Ichigo, and the forces of Haven.

As a practitioner of resonance, Utami possesses great aptitude in the following techniques:

* **Aslah** (アスラ, *Asura*; Arabic for "Renovation"): The Southern equivalent of the East's Kido, Aslah consists of resonating with the ambient energy in one's environment in order to perform various effects. Notably, one also makes use of a counterpoint phenomenon to resonance known as **dissonance** (不協和 *fukyōwaon*), breaking down that very energy in order to acquire more and more energy from it for use. Notably, the use of this technique at either its basic or advanced level means that Utami can acquire numerous kidō-adjacent effects without expending any of her own energy. As one raised among the sea-faring peoples of the South, Utami is especially adept at manipulation and extracting both the bonds of reishi and uraryoku inherent within the water, extracting oxygen from it in order to breath harder, and using it in order to increase her own speed and maneuverability beyond what one would be expected of in that terrain.
	+ **Shoti** (ショッティー, *shottī*; Swahili for "gallop"): A subskill of Aslah, Utami utilizes the energy broken down and repurposed through dissonance into motile force, allowing her much greater mobility. Due to her upbringing, it is especially powerful in water -- Utami may draw upon the moisture in the air, resonating with it and extracting its uraryoku and otherwise making use of its limited spiritual pressure in order to enhance her own movement and strikes.
* **Axilia** (アクシリア *Akushiria*; Nahuatl for "hunt"): Analogous to the East's Hakuda, Axilia allows Utami to not only imbue herself with reiryoku in order to enhance her strikes and other physical capabilities, but also to resonate the different parts of her body together. As a result, she is capable of such feats as exerting the force of her entire body through the smallest motion of her pinkie finger, or allowing body parts to perform the function of others, even if it is biologically impossible.
* **Atsuguk** (アツァガック *Atsūagakku*; Inuktitut for "extension" or "exert oneself"): The Southern version of zanjutsu; with it, Utami resonates with either a weapon that is at hand or the surrounding environment, turning them into an extension of her own body. What distinguishes this from other forms of Resonance is the depth and complexity of it; Atsuguk performs best when one is familiar with the environment or the weapon, allowing its maximum potential to be drawn out without the destructive matter of dissonance. It is the preferred form of Resonance utilized by the Sama-Bajau, as dissonance is only reserved for special occasions (and is otherwise considered wasteful).

### Inuksuk

*Main Article: Tiamat*
      **Aumanil** (オーマニル *Ōmaniru*) is the form the Titan known as **Ceto**, also called **Tiamat**, takes when she serves as Utami's inuksuk, or her bounded spirit as a shaman. It doubles as a blessing and/or shogo, with all the attendant benefits and dimensions. Thus, their relationship is a unique one, until their bond either fully matures or is rejected.

* **Ceto's Blessing**: Aumanil soaks Utami deeply with her power, allowing her to utilize strength far beyond that of an ordinary humanoid. Furthermore, she can manipulate the purely-physical aura; it provides Utami not only with increased strength, then, but with additional limbs that are no less lacking in power.
