Daughter of Otohime and Raijin

### Secret Heart's Desire

"I've never thought of what *I* wanted. Most of my life, I just followed my brother... But, maybe opening a place to raise dragons would be nice..."

### My "Magic" Touch

"Thanks to Dad I have the power to control lightning, however, my power is more advanced than I can even control. I'm stronger than Akira and sometimes, that is scary."

### Oh "Curses!" Moment

"Ugh, when my lightning reacts negatively. It drives me nuts and I'm afraid of shocking my friends."

### Favourite Subject

*Mythos Magic.* "It helps me learn more in controlling my unstable powers."

### Least Favourite Subject

*Alchemy.* "Lightning/Sparks and Experiments do not mix well. I always get nervous about doing them. Since I am always generating lightning, one touch from me can cause something to explode or way haywire."

### Best Friends Forever After

Cascade de Mare

**Kiyomi Raiden** [*she/her*] is the 16-year-old daughter of **Raijin** and **Otohime** from *Japanese Mythology* and is set to inherit her estranged mother's legacies. She is the younger twin sister of Akira Raiden, who will be inheriting their father's legacies.

At the time of the **Rebel Movement**, Kiyomi is attending her **Legacy Year** of the Mythology Program and currently rooms with **Cascade de Mare**. Hesitant on her legacy since her mother left her and her twin brother when they were children, Kiyomi sides with the **Royals** for reasons unknown. In terms of the fighting over legacies, like with Ivy Efiáltis, Kiyomi sides with the **Neutrals** on that matter.

## Biography

### Personality & traits

*In the stage of being rewritten and reorganized*

* Her past is mostly kept a secret, only reveals that she does not tolerate bullying (a slight hint that she may have been bullied before in the past)
* Kiyomi has low self-confidence, due to her unstable powers, doesn't believe she can control them.
	+ Akira works with her to try to boost her confidence but even he agrees that her powers are out of his control.
* She is extremely cautious with who she befriends and meets. Due to past conflict(s), she's wary of everyone she meets until she gets to know them.
	+ It took weeks before Cascade was even said a "hello" from Kiyomi.
	+ Since then, the two have formed a strong, sisterly relationship, shocking everyone due to Cascade's temper. It definitely confuses people with how close they are considering their powers are also total opposites.
* Despite her cautious outlook on people, and low self-confidence, Kiyomi does have a slightly short temper when dealing with people that annoy her.
	+ She doesn't have the patience for them and has snapped more than once - her lightning powers don't make it easy either.
* Due to her unstable powers, Kiyomi is *extremely* powerful for her age, but she has little to no control over her powers. She must wear a power limiter to control how much power she can unleash without harming herself or anyone else.
* Loves and adores all types of animals, but prefers dragons and canines (mainly wolves).
* Kiyomi is not shy when a topic of her interest is going on/being talked about, which is strange.
* Love and Romance she is unsure about, having seen the failed relationship of her parents, she isn't even sure if she wants romance

### Physical Appearance

Kiyomi is a young teenager of Japanese descent, inheriting her beauty from her mother, Otohime. She has thick, silky black hair with dark blue and dark purple highlights, silvery-gray eyes, and a slightly tanned skin tone. She is a bit on the short side, standing at 5'2", though when she wears her boots, she gains at least another two-three inches.

### Hobbies & Interests

#### *Reading*

Though she doesn't openly admit it, Kiyomi enjoys reading a good book. It helps her calm down mentally allowing her powers to not run wild.

#### *Dragons*

Both an interest and hobby, Kiyomi adores being with dragons. Having raised one since an egg, that sparked her interest at an early age. When not attending school, she can be found with Black Beauty traveling around to find more dragons and studying them.

##### *Dragon Games*

It was actually during her travels when she learned about the "Dragon Games". She instantly fell in love with the sport and studied a lot about it. It helped, especially when she was called to come to Ever After High by her brother.

### Powers & Abilities

As the daughter of Rajin, Kiyomi inherited his power over the element of lightning and storms. However, her power is extremely advanced for her control, resulting her in wearing a special pendant that helps control how much power she can unleash at once. To try to help her maintain control in her powers, she is always training.

#### Powers

* **Electricity manipulation:** Kiyomi inherited the power to control lightning, though her powers are highly advanced. She can control, absorb, conduct, generate, and store electrical energy. However, due to advanced powers, Kiyomi has to wear a special item that limits and controls how much lightning she can release.
	+ **Electricity generation:** She is able to generate electricity out of nothing, however, this ability is out of her control as she naturally produces electricity. The only way she controls this is with her pendant that she is always seen wearing. The pendant has some sort of lock on it that controls how much electricity Kiyomi can let out at once.
	+ **Electrokinetic constructs:** She has the power to create constructs out of electricity, but she has never tried it for unknown reasons.
	+ **Electricity projection:** Kiyomi is able to project her lightning in various attacks, such as beams, bolts, blasts, waves, balls, and scattershots. However, because of her advanced powers, her attacks tend to be more powerful than normal.
		- **Electric tornado:** Kiyomi once tried to do an electric tornado, but it went slightly out of control rendering her dizzy and unable to function. She hasn't tried this move again since.
	+ **Electricity Immunity:** She is immune to electricity. If she were to be struck by lightning, she wouldn't feel it, she would probably feel is a power surge. However, due to her unstable powers, she avoids going outside during storms, afraid she will get struck by lightning, and if she is, well, it might not be good.
	+ **Electricity absorption and redirection:** Kiyomi can absorb electricity and redirect it. However, she usually avoids absorbing more electricity than she needs.
	+ **Shocking:** Kiyomi is always generating lightning throughout her body so she shocks anyone upon touch. She generally warns people ahead of time before they touch her. Akira and any other lightning-users are immune to this.
	+ **Electric conductivity:** Kiyomi's body is naturally electrically conductive. She can also induce electrical conductivity in external targets by charging them with electricity.
	+ **Electrical energy manipulation:** One of the main forms of her powers, and probably one of her strongest forms, Kiyomi is able to generate and manipulation electrical energy and use it for various things.
		- **Electrical energy-telekinesis:** Kiyomi is able to utilize her electrical energy powers in the form of telekinesis. Whenever she uses this power, any item or object is surrounded by a light teal aura.
* **Storm manipulation:** As the daughter of Raijin, Kiyomi also has the power to control storms. Because her powers are so advanced, she has utterly no control over this power. Kiyomi reframes from ever using her powers until she can control them.
	+ **Thunderstorm generation:** Out of all her storm powers, Kiyomi is only able to control her thunderstorm powers. While she can't create vast thunderstorms, she can create a small-mini one that is not very powerful.
* **Immortality**

#### Skillset

* **Multilingualism:** Kiyomi is able to speak and write in Japanese. Due to the years of work with living and working with dragons, Kiyomi has gained the ability to somewhat understand them.
* **Electrokinetic combat:** From training by her father, Kiyomi is skilled in infusing her powers into combat, allowing her to defend and protect herself.
* **Knowledge of dragons:** Having raised Black Beauty since he was an egg, Kiyomi has excellent knowledge of dragons, including types and their favorite food. This also includes knowing how to care for dragons.

## Myth - *Otohime*

### How does Kiyomi Fit into It?

As the firstborn daughter of Otohime, the role was directly given to Kiyomi.

## Relationships

### Family

#### Parents

Kiyomi is the daughter of Raijin, the Japanese God of Lightning, Thunder, and Storms, and Otohime, the daughter of Ryujin, the Guardian of the Sea.

Kiyomi has a good, strong, and healthy relationship with her father, whom she deeply respects and love. Like Akira, Kiyomi is also attached to her father, as the only parent she ever had in her life. Rajin is protective of his children and debated telling them about their mother for a long time. He taught them both to work for what they wanted and to never have anything just handed to them. Raijin affectionately calls Kiyomi, "Little Lightning". She is a "Daddy's Girl", but not of the spoiled kind, which Rajin made sure he did not too.
The relationship between Kiyomi and her mother, Otohime, is unknown and nothing, since she left when the twins were a few days old, leaving Rajin a single father to twins. Sixteen years later, Kiyomi refuses to have anything to do with her mother, whereas, Akira still isn't sure how to feel about his mother leaving him and his sister with their father.
#### Siblings

Kiyomi is the youngest of Raijin's children, her older brother, Akira, is her fraternal twin brother. She is the second of Otohime's children, her older brother being Akira, and her younger siblings being Hawker and Falconer Tide, the children of his mother's second partner, Hoori.

Kiyomi is extremely close to Akira, and like some twins, finish each others sentences. They are always there for each other and help each other with their issues. Kiyomi helps Akira with his mild social anxiety and Akira helping Kiyomi deal with her past issues. In their adulthood, their strong relationship continues, even when Kiyomi falls pregnant with her daughter, Ruri. Though Akira worries for Kiyomi especially not knowing the name of the baby's father, he still supports her.
Hawker is Kiyomi's younger maternal half-brother, the son of her mother, Otohime, and Hoori. Kiyomi didn't come to know Hawker until they came to the Mythology Program but didn't think much about it until Hawker came to her. Kiyomi finds Hawker a bit much and usually stays away from him..
#### Future family

In the future, only a short while after graduation, Kiyomi becomes a single mother to a girl named Ruri. After she reunites with Ragni Stormbringer, the pair become parents to twins, Gemma and Onyx. All three have inherited Raijin's powers, over lightning, thunder, and storms. Through her brother, Akira, Kiyomi becomes the aunt of his and his partner, Titania's, children, Atsuko and Camille (who they adopted) and Kiyoshi.

### Friends

#### Cascade de Mare

At first, the two were very uncertain as they were opposites in power personality and powers (they eventually got along). Cascade is the older protective sister Kiyomi never had, and helps her with her shyness. Cascade has never lost her temper with Kiyomi, despite the possibly multiple times she's shocked by the daughter of Rajin (and that's shocked nearly every member of Cascade's *large* and extended family).

#### Fay Fairer

Kiyomi first met Fay when she arrived in Ever After High with a dozen or so dragons, so the Mythos Kids and Fairy Tale kids could form their own Dragon Games' Teams. Fay was the first to be picked by one of Kiyomi's dragons, which initiated their friendship. Fay named her dragon, a water one, Marée.

#### Liv Mercybringer

Liv is a new friend of Kiyomi's who she met when she came to Ever After High with a bunch of dragons for the students, Fairy Tale and Mythos, to bond with. Liv was the second person to be chosen by one of Kiyomi's dragons, specifically a male Wind Dragon.

#### Ragni Stormbringer

Through Cascade, Kiyomi met and befriended Ragni, the daughter of the Storm Valkyrie, Rota. At first, the two didn't really communicate, but upon learning Kiyomi was the daughter of Rajin, the two began to talk more. After learning of Ragni's issues with her powers, Kiyomi offered to help, which she was also working wit her own powers.

#### Zain Chaostorm

Kiyomi became friends, or at least friendly terms, with Zain Chaostorm, her brother's best friend, and fellow child of Storm Deity.

### Pets

#### *Black Beauty*

    Many years prior to coming to Ever After High, Kiyomi acquired a male dragon whom she named **Black Beauty**, with stunning, black scales, with gold accents and bright amber eyes. Black Beauty, as a Japanese dragon, has a pair of long whiskers on his snout. During Dragon Games Season, Kiyomi adorns Black Beauty with custom made saddle and reigns.

Like most dragons, Black Beauty is capable of breathing fire, in his case, the color gold, and is also able to change his size. It is unknown how he has the ability, but it could be possible that he was the sibling of Raven Queen's dragon, Nevermore, but it is only a rumor.

The reasoning for his name, Kiyomi doesn't give out. But she claims the name comes from a book she read in the past.

#### *Raiju*

**Raiju**, Raijin's beastly companion, is more so a family pet to Kiyomi and Akira.

### Romance

Kiyomi identifies as **asexual demiromantic**.
