## Appearance

Yor is a very beautiful, graceful and fairly tall young woman with light skin, black hair, and reddish eyes. Her hair has a headband and is split into two-part ways which crosses over her head. She has a pair of dangling earrings. She usually wears a red sweater that exposes her shoulders and back along with a red skirt. Her lower body outfit consists of black leggings and a pair of brown ankle boots.

Yor's full appearance.
At Berlint City Hall, she wears the standard work uniform, consisting of a white long-sleeved shirt with a sleeveless green vest over it, with a knee-length green office skirt and black heels.

As an assassin, Yor wears a form-fitting halter-style black dress that shows off her shoulders and cleavage, with a rose choker and a red rose pattern on the inside of her skirt. The front of the skirt is mid-thigh length while the back of the skirt reaches below her knees. She also wears a pair of black thigh-high boots and black fingerless gloves. The headband she wears is gold-colored with a rose and two spikes on each side. Her weapons are of the same color as well. This is her only good dress prior to marrying Loid, after which she purchases more formal wear to better present herself for Eden.

As a child, Yor had shorter hair that reached just below chin-length.

## Personality

Yor lacks social skills and initially comes across as a somewhat aloof individual, interacting minimally with her coworkers and being rather straightforward, and she's described by Camilla as a robot. Similarly, Yor has a remarkably collected, able to keep her composure in the midst of combat. She is incredibly polite to the point of asking her assassination targets if she may take their lives. Despite this, Yor is a genuinely kind person, with a strong maternal and big sister instinct. After becoming a family with Loid and Anya, Yor becomes more expressive and opens up to her coworkers, asking for help on being a better wife or cooking. She is protective of her faux family, especially towards Anya whom she has no trouble defending with extreme violence.
Due to spending most of her life as an assassin, Yor's ways of thinking are often highly deviant. She is frequently inclined to solve problems through murder, such as imagining killing everyone at Camilla's party after the latter threatens to tell Yor's brother that she came without a date in order to prevent him from knowing. She also daydreams about assassinating the parent of an Eden Academy applicant so Anya is ensured a place. To this extent, she has an affinity towards weapons, being captivated by a painting of a guillotine and a table knife.
In a complete idiosyncrasy, Yor is extremely gullible, being easily fooled by the ridiculous lies Loid tells her to hide his identity. Yor has a startling lack of common sense, asking Camilla if boogers made coffee taste better in response to her suggestion that they put one in their superior's coffee. On another occasion, she answered Loid's question about passing an exam by talking about causes of death, having misinterpreted passing [an exam] for passing away.
Yor is shown to be insecure about herself and her abilities, believing she is not good at anything apart from killing or cleaning, and she constantly worries that she's not being a good wife or mother. After the interview at Eden Academy, she tries to be more of a normal mother to Anya by trying to cook and asking Camilla for cooking lessons.
