Yumiko is a Bystander Survivor and DEX type Ranger, who has the potential to be promoted to Mythical Grade.

## Background

Magna stared at Yumiko from her seat in the camper. Luke poured some coffee into a stainless steel mug and handed it to her.
“Hard to say.”
Magna brought the mug up to her nose and inhaled deeply. It was an aroma she hadn’t smelled in a long time.
“She’s probably still in shock. It’s not every day someone tries to eat you.”
Luke shook his head. If they had discovered the cannibals a day or two later, there would have been no survivors left to find.
“That was some messed up shit. If I hadn’t seen it myself, I wouldn’t have believed it.”
“Yep.”
Frowning, Luke sat next to Magna. He glanced over at Yumiko.
“Wonder where she’s from. Maybe she doesn’t speak English?”
“She told me her name was Yumiko when I asked her. Why? Thinking about trying your luck?”
Magna chuckled. Luke raised an eyebrow in mock surprise.
“Obviously. She’s pretty easy on the eyes.”
“Down, boy. Hate to break it to you, but I’m guessing you’re not her type.”
Magna sighed. “I’m gonna go see if I can calm her down.” Turning her back on Luke’s mischievous smile, she carefully descended from the camper with her coffee. She paused.
“Oh yeah. Where’d you get the coffee?”
Luke grinned.
“Found it in their kitchen. It’s brand name stuff. They’ve got good taste — you know, for cannibals.”
“You said your name was Yumiko, right?”
Magna knelt and held out the mug of coffee to Yumiko, who sat staring at the ground, hugging her knees. At the smell of the coffee, she finally lifted her head and grasped the mug with both hands. Magna watched Yumiko breathe in, savoring the aroma.
“I almost died once, too,”
Magna said gently. Yumiko looked at her but said nothing.
“It was a long time ago, but I still remember it like it was yesterday. Some walkers got into our hideout, and everyone started running and shoving each other, trying to get away. I got pushed around and somehow sprained my leg. I could barely walk, let alone run. The others were too busy hightailing it out of there to give a damn about me.”
Yumiko gazed at the mug in her hands. Taking this as a sign that she was listening, Magna went on with her story.
“There were so many walkers... I was scared shitless. Thought it was all over. Those guys saved me, but I was so shaken up that I couldn't sleep for days. Every time I closed my eyes, I could see the walkers coming for me.”
Magna fell silent. Yumiko raised the mug to her lips and took a sip, then blurted out,
“So, how’d you get past it?”
Magna answered with a smile.
“I snapped out of it eventually. Can’t stay scared forever, you know?”
Magna pointed at a bow and some arrows near the camper. They had belonged to the cannibals.
“My advice? Learn how to use those. It helps — having a way to fight back and protect yourself.”
Yumiko looked over at the bow and arrows.
“I know a thing or two about using a bow. If you want, I can teach you.”
Magna stood up. After a moment, Yumiko nodded slowly. Satisfied, Magna started walking back to the camper to ask Luke if they had any more coffee. After a few steps, she turned around and called out,
“You’ve got a really nice voice, Yumiko! Hope we get to hear more of it from now on!”
Yumiko looked away in embarrassment. Magna smiled and turned back to the camper.
