Rina Fushi

> *"I have all the characteristics of a human being—flesh, blood, skin, hair—but my depersonalization is so intense, has gone so deep, that my normal ability to feel compassion has been eradicated, the victim of a slow, purposeful erasure. I am simply imitating reality, a rough resemblance of a human being, with only a dim corner of my mind functioning."*

## Origin and Living Status

### Living Status

Undead

**Rina Fushi** (Real name **Riane Fushs**) is a Surgeon's Assistant and former Psychiatrist (nee psychiatrist-in-training).

## Personality

Rina is childish most of the time, but she can also be mature when the going gets serious. She is very smart and uses it to confuse and trick her enemies. Not only does she like to fool her enemies but she also will use psychology whenever it's needed.

Before her death, Rina was characterized as hardworking, talented, and a natural genius. Highly perceptive and good with problem solving, Rina was a skilled planner and good at mapping out scenarios. However, she was deeply abused by her parents at home. As such, her high intelligence and constant abuse from her parents laid the foundation for an intense level of hubris which quickly took effect once she died for the first time.

After dying for the first time, Rina quickly begins to develop a cold and ruthless nature. As a utilitarian, she will take any means in order to achieve her goals. Her actions do sometimes put her teammates in harm’s way, though she does continue to love them regardless.

Rina tends to become envious very easily and frequently, which contributes to her progression of her Zombification, her violent insanity, and how she chooses to seduce the victims "to make sure they get what they deserve." She doesn't mind killing people and she does it with a smiling face.

## Attributes

### Powers

* **Immortality Inducing Blood**: Rina has a special blood type that, at the cost of Rina's regeneration, stops process of aging. This ability can be bestowed upon other people through simple blood transfusion. Though it will have only temporary effect on people other than Rina.
* **Defunct Physiology**: Rina lacks many weaknesses of normal people, such as need of food, sleep or need to breath. She also can't feel pain and can't be poisoned or fall ill. In Rina's case it sometimes isn't very good since she just doesn't feel her wounds which, combined with absence of any passive regeneration, can lead to fatal outcomes.
* **Anatomical Liberation**: Rina can freely split her body into multiple pieces she can control by her will.
* **Body Part Substitution**: If Rina is missing any appendages she can freely connect new ones on her place, though she, of course, first needs to find these new appendages.
* **Consumption Restoration**: By consuming something user can heal much faster than normal people and even regenerate lost limbs. In Rina's case this ability is especially important since she doesn't have passive regeneration on her own.
* **Feral Mind**: When Rina experiences an adrenaline rush; usually when in danger, or in the midst of a violent confrontation, Rina's zombie characteristics will fully surface, causing her eyes to turn into those of a zombie's and allowing her to perform incredible feats; she gains access to physical strength and speed that surpasses any humans, and further reduced sensitivity to any endured pain or trauma. But for this she has to sacrifice her clear mind effect.
* **Inhuman Eating**: Rina can eat much more than normal people and can even eat usually not edible materials without any harm to herself.
* **Organic Empowerment**: Rina gains additional strength from consuming organic materials, such as meat for example.
* **Pseudo-Immortality:** Being trapped in a paradox between life and death, Rina does not belong to either and is thereby unfettered with the limitations of either (i.e., fatality). She cannot die from grievous injuries to any of her major organs, aside from the brain. As a zombie, Rina does not physically age.

### Abilities

* **Master Acrobat**: As an Olympic-level gymnast, Rina is an extraordinarily skilled acrobat, often utilizing her gymnastics and acrobatics into her fighting to maintain the upper hand against her opponents.
* **Expert Psychiatrist**: As a former Psychiatrist, Rina is an expert at understanding the human mind. However, she tends to be slow with self-diagnosis.
* **Piano Playing**: As shown during backstory flashbacks, and read in her diary pages, she often played the piano and was very good at it, but she didn't find much enjoyment in it after awhile, claiming the sounds "all formed the same melody", and only enjoyed it because she thought of Heinrich when she played it.

### Weaknesses

* **Feral Mind**: A zombie's expanded abilities are triggered by adrenaline rushes, making them hard to control and hide as they will no longer have a clear mind.
* **Mental Illness**: Rina suffers from hallucinations, false memories, anger issues, and a myriad of other mental instabilities.

You didn't make me Heinrich, I made myself!"*
