Name: Lady Yukari Mizushima
Age: 29
Gender: Female
Race: Human
Occupation: Great Lady
Physical Description: Yukari is of average height, and has extremely long, below knee-length black hair. She has a long, swan-like neck, and is very thin, with bony wrists and ankles. Her features are regular and almost doll-like. She pays no particular attention to dress or primping her appearance, letting her maids take care of things for her. She often has to be reminded to wear makeup on important occasions, and really couldn't care less for having her family crest plastered over everything she possesses. Her largest vanity (although it is really more of a hobby) is a deep interest in scent - she has an extensive collection of perfumes and always take care to smell delicious.
Powers/Skills: There is no magic in Yukari, nor has there been in any of her family before her. She has never been interested in handling swords or in traditional martial arts. However, she has studied tessenjutsu (fighting with war fans) and likes to practice regularly.
Background: The Mizushima family originate from the borders of Sakura and The Silent Kingdom, where they hold land and have won the loyalty of native retainers. The family historically avoided Erion and the Palace, visiting court only when strictly necessary. Yukari became a Great Lady only very recently after the death of her father and uncles in circumstances which remain unclear: an innocent-seeming skirmish to deal with further North resulted in a massacre, where all the Mizushima men were killed. The incident might have been construed as merely unfortunate had it not coincided with a contraversial Bill the late Lord Mizushima was trying to get past the new Emperor.
When she discovered that she was the sole surviving heir to the Mizushima title, Yukari made the tactical decision to move herself and her retinue to Erion, and appointed a steward to manage her affairs at the family seat.
