Sunazara Kyoko

The EYE Operative *(Former)*

**Sunazara Kyoko** *(砂皿京子 Sunazara Kyoko)* is a member of IDEAL, former mercenary and is a victim of the New York Cataclysm. An orphan due to the Great War between America and Russia that was indirectly caused by Eiichiro. She is the previous leader of IDEAL, her position was later than taken over by F.A.I.T.H. after the fall of The EYE. She joined CERBERUS with the rest of IDEAL after the aforementioned fall of The EYE, at which point she works as their operative along with the rest of IDEAL. Her preferred method of assassination is through silence, however when the situation calls for it she can also go close combat.

She is the only member in IDEAL that has extensive knowledge in both magic and science. Capable of using both in tandem with one another for highly unpredictable assassinations and subterfuges that could easily take out all of her opponents with ease.

## Personality

Initially, Kyoko had an immense hatred for Eiichiro. As she was affected by the New York Cataclysm and her life was ruined because of it, blaming Eiichiro for the misfortune that she had to go through. When in battle she is cold, efficient, ruthless and logical. She is a brooding and conflicted person. She is traumatized by the war between America and Russia and is often haunted with the cries of her dead friends and parents as she watches them get killed and some even died from illness that were too late to be cured. She was described to be a person who never smiles, she is often seen with a brooding face, or a depressed expression.

In order to pursue her dream of killing Kihara Eiichiro, she polished in her combat skills and studied everything she can in espers and magicians to combat him when the time comes to confront him. The death of Kihara Eiichiro is what drives her throughout most of her life, wanting revenge and killing him for the suffering she has caused her. Despite that, she has a close connection with her fellow members at IDEAL due to her past of having her friends killed by causes out of her control. As such she is very over-protective of them, and is willing to sacrifice herself should she be given the chance to do so.

When outside of combat, she has shown to be the silent type. Not speaking unless required to, and would mainly answer in one sentence. She is a woman of a few words, as described by Sayaka. Her robotic lifestyle even translates to her daily life, buying things that are only necessary and avoids anything detrimental to her health or social lifestyle. Eventually, she begins to grow closer to Eiichiro after the fall of The EYE and finding out the real culprit behind the accident was The EYE itself. With that in mind, she begins to grow as an individual. All the hate she had for Kihara Eiichiro suddenly disappears (although not overnight) and she becomes pretty awkward when near him. Showcasing rare expressions such as a sheepish smile, embarrassment, and blushing cheeks.

She later comes to terms that she has grown feelings for Eiichiro, because she feels that he saved her from herself.

## Appearance

For the most part, she has been depicted as not showing too many emotions. She tends to have a brooding look, or a depressed expression on her face. Something her fellow IDEAL members highlight. However when she does show emotions, it's usually frustration or an intense amount of hatred. She is seen as regular young japanese girl with a slight tan to her skin, long black hair that reaches down to her mid-back. She has an almost flat breasts for an 18 years old, but has a wide hips to compensate for it.

When working as a mercenary or as a member of IDEAL she tends to wear black clothing, which is due to her job as a mercenary and stealth is her main choice of going about her missions. She often wears long-sleeved black sweater with a military camouflage trousers and black gloves. She also tends to tie her hair in a bun to prevent any form of distraction.

After joining CERBERUS, her choice of clothing hasn't changed as much. Preferring clothes with the red, pink or orange. She also has highlighted a bit of her hair as a design choice. Since joining CERBERUS, she has also shown to smile a lot more (as the burden of wanting to kill Eiichiro has been released from her mind).

## Powers and Abilities

As a mercenary, Kyoko is extremely skilled in close combat and has mastered the use of different types of weapons like handguns, missile launchers, etc. After barely surviving her first job, she was taught by her mentor, Osamu, how to actually fight and survive in war zones as a mercenary. Eventually, she gained experience handling all sorts of weapons along with tactics on how to use them effectively. Not only that, as an ex-member of the Japanese Military, Kyoko is trained in their style of combat and arresting techniques, plus she also has experience and knowledge on how to engage espers and magicians, as well as understand their fundamental abilities and spells to search for a weakness.

Kyoko specializes in all-kinds of ranged combat, but she is also competent in basic hand-to-hand combat. She is also a professional sniper, capable of sniping a target from 3km away. She knows how the underworld works, and as such she prefers to kill targets with a shot to their heads where people can see in order for her to be ensured that not only are the targets dead physically but also socially, preventing body doubles to take advantage of the situation and claim that the target is still alive.

### Genius Level Intelligence

Kyoko is a brilliant, virtually peerless, detective, strategist, scientist, tactician, and commander. She is widely regarded as one of the keenest analytical minds anyone has ever known. Given her lack of any esper powers or highly complex magic spells, she often uses cunning and planning to outwit her foes, rather than simply fighting them head-on.

She has studied Biology, Technology, Mathematics, Physics, Mythology, Geography and History. A testament to her genius level intelligence is that Kyoko was able to master Criminal Science, Forensic Sciences, Computer Sciences, Chemistry, and Engineering by the time she was 8 years old. She had mastered Diverse Environmental Training, Security Systems, and illusion/sleight of hand by the time she was 10. Gained even more proficient skills in Biology, Physics, Advanced Chemistry, and Technology by the time she was 12, and has also learned Medical Sciences and Expanded Computer and Engineering Sciences before then as well. She is also multilingual in that she has shown to speak multiple languages fluently from around the world due to her status as a mercenary and travelling all around the world.

Having experience in Mechanical Engineering, Kyoko is capable of designing and creating mechanical apparatus and machines that almost equal that of Academy City, described to be at least 8 years apart. Which was displayed when she, along with Kihara Chinatsu was able to create a highly powerful armor known as the "Eradicator" which was fitted with the Level 5 Program Software that Faith uses. Showcasing that she at least has enough mechanical skills to assist the extremely talented Chinatsu.

Using her knowledge of Chemistry, Engineering, and Biology, Kyoko was able to produce synthetic skin. Synthetic Skin that allows Kyoko to replicate the faces of female individuals by taking photos of them and with Chinatsu's help, render them. Posing as other people and tricking her targets into engineering their own downfall. While posing as other individuals, she has shown to use her knowledge of psychology and in ventriloquism to replicate almost any voice that she hears from other people. This is however only be limited to people with higher pitched voices as she has never been shown to copy deeper voices. The synthetic skin has a severe flaw in that it can only last up to 99 minutes in the light as they are photosensitive and would dissolve back to it's prior state when stuck in the light for 99 minutes.

### Anti-Magic Tactics

Kyoko has the mindset of a skilled assassin, and rather than facing another magician in a direct duel of abilities, such as in a battle between their Spiritual Items; she makes use of various plans, traps, and schemes that utilize both magic and modern weaponry in order to take out her targets. She preys on the weak point of magicians' magic spells by having knowledge on the spell's origination and basis. She follows the methodology that the attack the enemy does not expect is a shortcut for all battles; and preys on the fact that they constantly stay on alert to the slightest trace of magic.

Magicians generally only hone their skills, counter measures towards other magical threats; ignoring any attack that is purely physical, and void of magic. They view the sharpest knives and strongest bullets as secondary menaces they have no need to fear. Before such an attack actually pierces their flesh, they are confident in their illusions, paralysis methods; and defensive barriers being more than capable to negate such attacks. Some magicians despise technology and science, underestimating what a human without magic or esper powers can accomplish, which makes some of them weak to non-magical attacks. When faced with a magician's headquarters, she expects magical security systems like magical furnaces, spirits and apparitions, and a large barrier; Kyoko would not go through that and instead would blow up the entire headquarters instead of mounting a direct offensive against the defenses inside.

Not only is Kyoko able to dispatch most magicians with her magical runes and traps, as well as modern weaponry, but even in some special cases she calls "formidable enemies", she is still able to once again follow the methodology that technology is a blind spot to most magicians to easily overcome many of them by night vision and a heat sensor scope. However not all magicians underestimate the usage of modern technology and science, against these type of magicians who apply technology or scientists who apply magic to their technology, she tends to use magical runes as her main weapon. Even facing such an opponent, she is extremely adept at forming strategies and analyzing enemy movements and their magic, performing well even under tremendous stress from active combat.

### Rune Pattern Magic

With the help of Mina Harker and Diana Grey, Kyoko acquired a method of casting magic through the usage of Runes. **Runes** *(ルーン文字 Rūn Mojii, Runic Letters)* are the letters in a set of related alphabets known as runic alphabets, which were used to write various Germanic languages before the adoption of the Latin alphabet. Kyoka uses runes placed on cards to activate various things such as: create a field that no one can enter, casting elemental spells, producing strong ultra-violet rays, hiding her presence, creating illusionary bodies and even increasing the effectiveness of weapons and her physical capabilities. She primarily places the cards around a specific area and chants in Notarikon Codes to increase the speed of her magic casting prowess.

When in battle, she likes to place the laminated runic cards around the strategic places in which she can expect the battlefields to be taken place. While she can use individual runes to cast spells, such as Kenzas to cast fire spells, or Laguz to cast water based elemental spells. She can create multiple spells, attacks and use different techniques by combining the different runes that are placed in multiple places that are near her. Such as combining Teiwaz and Kenzas to provide her modern weaponry with the ability to project fire-based elemental rounds. Kyoko also analyzed the patterns and laws behind different runes from all over the world. She then combined and condensed them, refining them into single attack patterns which he can use, and constructing completely new spells in the process.
