Ascim

**Ame Kumari**, full name **Ame-no-mi-Kumari**, formerly **Ame-no-Uzume**, is the goddess of water, as well as the goddess of dawn, mirth, dance, meditation, revelry and the arts. Prior to the beginning of the story, she had been hibernating for eight hundred years.

## Personality

Ame is seemingly self-centered and does things at her own pace, however in actuality she maintains a distance from people to ascertain them. She is bored with life and seeks 'pure love' as she was born with everything: wealth, beauty and 'love' from anyone. She does not seem to care for how long she had been sleeping. She also likes to reject people when they are deeply in love with her in a most brutal way.

Turns out, her definition of "pure love" is "unobtainable love" in which no matter how much she loves the other person, the person will not reciprocate it back.

She seemed to have difficulty in comprehending emotions and desires, otherwise characterized by her as the [heart]. Over time spent with Takeru, she seemed to have started to develop her own [heart]. Her expressions and feelings became more vivid over time. Ame regularly practices swordplay, and she is rather good at it. She is very persuasive to gods.

She mostly exhibits an innocent personality pertaining to her age yet is very competent at swordplay. Before meeting Takeru, she never had fun in sword fights, as she was trained to win, not to seek enjoyment. She’s a little more traditional than most other girls due to her upbringing at a shrine.

## Powers and Abilities

* **Fast Mind**: She is able to assess a situation and react accordingly at blazing speeds. An example is when sword fighting with Takeru, she was able to record any new moves, assess the situation, and proceed correspondingly when presented with the same position in the future.
* **Superhuman Strength**: Although she takes on the appearance of a young girl, she is incredibly strong to the point of nonchalantly cutting apart a boulder, ripping out a few iron plates, and lifting a large metal door ten times her height over her head.
* **Mind Reading**: Ame can sense the thoughts of other people, usually hearing them like ordinary speech, but possibly by other senses such as sight. Usually, she senses the surface thoughts (including other mental communications), but she can also push farther into subconscious and memories.
* **Enhanced Swordsmanship**: Ame is able to demonstrate a natural aptitude for the ways of the sword, including anything sword-shaped. She is able to wield a sword with incredible proficiency in speed, power, and skill, allowing her to perform feats such as stopping and deflecting arrows, decimating large objects or areas, cutting through a solid material such as steel, and even hold back her strength to deal damage to her foes without killing them. She is able to operate with little or no effort, deliver skillful strikes to weak points with great precision and cut only and exactly what she wants. This ability also allows her to become naturally skilled with multiple swords or any bladed weapon regardless of shape or size to suit her needs in combat. Her remarkably fast weapon control allows her to bypass obstacles in order to cut her intended target.
* **Water Manipulation**: Being the Goddess of Water, Ame is capable of manipulating it and other elements to a degree, like summoning lightning or creating floods.

## Equipment

* **Pendant**: A seashell shaped pendant with an aquamarine gem in it's center. When Ame sings Lost in Thoughts All Alone, Ame draws power from the necklace. It also allows her to accomplish numerous feats.

## Relationships

### Romances:

#### Takeru Totsuka

At first, Takeru and Ame had a very tense relationship, with Takeru constantly glaring at and being rude to Ame. He saw her as a nuisance, giving her the nickname 'Weed.' Their relationship starts to change when Ame showed him that they shared some of the same interests, and that she was strong in her determination to get to know him. As they train together, he slowly comes to trust her and starts to fall in love with her as well. One day, as it was raining, there was an accident where Ame fell from a cliff. Takeru lept to save her, breaking his shackle in the process. When she came to, he told her that he would protect her and that she didn't have to be afraid.

### Others:

#### Zeus

Her relationship with Zeus is not explained but he did seek her as one of the 'actors' in the 'game'. Her wish for him to grant is what she calls 'Pure Love'.

#### Artemis Khryselakatos Iokheira

Their relationship is not really explained but it is clear that Ame is quite protective of Artemis. This is shown when Apollon is holding her too tightly, Ame, along with Hela and Iduna, rush to her defense.
