**Skia Dunscaith** (スキア ドゥンスケース *Sukia Dunsukeesu*) is an elite mage of the Diamond Kingdom working directly under one of the Shining Generals. She is a masterful user of Shadow Magic.

## Appearance

Skia has the appearance of a youthful woman with a slim figure and sharp eyes. She has black hair that hangs over her face and leans partially to the left side of her face while having two separate strands on both sides of her face. She dons a navy blue bandanna with lined design and a golden crescent moon-shaped hair ornament on the back of her head. She also wears a navy blue zebra-patterned cloak with a crescent moon design on the back. It exposes the black skin-tight full body suit she wears, noted to have net-shaped designs on the sides and on the forearms. There are various line borders that separate the two, coming in straight and curved patterns.

## Personality

Skia is considered a professional, taking all the tasks given to her seriously and is a woman of few words. When in battle, she brings out a sadistic side, relieving her frustration by torturing and beating badly any enemy that proves to be strong. She takes great pride in her standing as an elite diamond mage and her shadow magic, believing no one can scratch her let alone defeat her due to the way she uses it but despite her pride, she knows her limits and when to retreat. While she can accept defeat, she can;t stand it at all, with her remembering those that defeated her and trying to battle them again in the future in order to defeat them and reclaim her honor.
