Aoi Haruno

**Aoi Haruno** (春野 藍井, *Haruno Aoi*) is one of the two main female protagonists of *Extermination*.

## Appearance

Aoi is a beautiful young woman of light complexion, with long indigo hair and green eyes. Her hair is usually tied into a ponytail, held with a black scrunchy, but on some occasions, she lets her hair down.

Most of the time, she is seen dressed in the female uniform of Kimura Academy resembles a white sailor uniform that has a black collar and black cuffs that has white horizontal stripes, an purple-colored tie hanged from the edges of her collar, a short black skirt that has a single white stripe, long black socks that has a red-colored ribbon around her upper thigh, and a pair of maroon-colored shoes.

## Personality

Aoi normally displays a calm demeanor, preferring to remain quiet when around others. However, she is prone to outbursts whenever faced with inappropriate situations such as finding erotic magazines under Rei's bed (despite Aoi herself being on top of them while he slept) or being left at the mercy of Lilith's succubus curse. Despite this, she is also caring and affectionate as she appreciates the kindness from Rei, Takashi and Mio.

Though Aoi tries to act brave and calm, deep down she is afraid about her current situation and constantly being under threat, however, when faced with danger she won't hesitate to face the challenge.

## Powers & Abilities

Aoi is a humanoid doll born as the daughter of the Vermilion Bird Zhūquè, during the Sì Xiàng Project overview by her "father" Masaomi Haruno.

It is further shown as she lost control over her powers upon seeing Rei stabbed right in front of her causing every thing around her to burst into flames, however, the Suzaku power that she inherited from her mother/original acts as a defensive measure and not to be used herself.
