Himiko L. Moisson

Early Life
Himiko was born to Maxwell Kujisaki and Rumina Moisson, in the Moisson Clan. She was considered an 'abnormal' baby due to her serpent-like tongue, a rare trait even for children of demonic heritage. Nonetheless, her parents very much loved her. At the age of 3, Rumina was cursed, and Maxwell was murdered. The young Himiko was adopted by her uncle, Gen'ichi, who was the Moisson Clan's advisor. He never spoke of her real parents. His wife, Avery, disliked Himiko. She was very abusive toward Himiko, either being neglectful, verbally abusive or sometimes even physically abusive. Gen'ichi knew very little about this, due to him being busy and Himiko being to scared to speak up when she was young.

Gen'ichi later adopted a boy named Draven Collett, a couple of years after having his own biological son, Wilbert Moisson. Himiko was distant from her adoptive family, and she never liked the Moisson Clan, often running off to the nearby forest for some alone time. The only real friend she had within the clan (despite them being about 6 years younger than herself) was Aeryssa Castlebrough.

Meeting Morgan
One day, at the age of 10, Himiko met a girl a couple of years younger than herself, named Morgan, after having saved her life. Auberon Moisson, the Moisson Clan's leader had a strong dislike for Morgan, though he was convinced by Gen'ichi to let her stay. Morgan then moved in with Himiko, over the years forming a very close bond with her.

4 years after their first meeting, Himiko would realise that she had developed a crush on Morgan. Confused and unsure what to do about these new feelings, Himiko avoided Morgan for an entire week, which only hurt them both. By the end of that week, Himiko confessed to Morgan on the verge of breaking down in front of her. Morgan returned Himiko's feelings, thus starting a relationship that would last the two into adulthood, which would become very 'intimate' very quickly. Realising that homosexuality was generally accepted despite the beliefs of Auberon, Himiko would quickly become very open with her own sexuality.

Morgan's Betrayal & Akiko's Teenage Years
Just days before Himiko and Morgan's wedding, Morgan disappeared. Himiko and Akiko were both left incredibly worried, that was until the day of Morgan's return... Unknown to them, Morgan had become the Mirazha Clan's new leader, no longer loving Himiko or Akiko because of her corruption, indicated by her glowing green eyes. She attacked Akiko, managing to slice her in the back with a dagger, as well as being able to blast off Himiko's right leg. Assuming the heartbroken Himiko would die from blood loss, Morgan left her and Akiko. The latter had been taken to the hospital wing, while Himiko joined her shortly afterwards. This event would drastically change both Himiko and Akiko's personalities for years to come.

Himiko subsequently became more protective of Akiko, rarely letting her out of her sight at home. Later on, Himiko became emotionally abusive, in many respects, such as 'jokingly' teasing and humiliating Akiko, being narrow-minded with Akiko's emotions, manipulating and gaslighting her.

Becoming the Moisson Clan's Leader, Losing Akiko
Gen'ichi, though nowhere near recovered, announced to the clan what had happened over the past few days, and stepping down as leader of the clan. He handed over his place to Himiko, becoming her advisor.

Unknown to Himiko, Akiko had tried to find her 'other' mother, Morgan recently. When Himiko found out, she was incredibly angered, knowing Morgan would kill Akiko if she got close enough to her. Himiko confronted Akiko about it, the latter claiming Morgan was 'corrupt', and wasn't herself when she left her and Himiko. Himiko, even more angered, did not listen, instead dismissing the idea due to her hatred for Morgan. Not one thought crossed her mind of the possibility. Over the span of months the tension increased, making Himiko angrier and angrier until she snapped, slapping her. Akiko, bitter and heartbroken, ran away, shattering Himiko's heart. Akiko was reported dead, with an arrow through her chest a day later...

Akiko was 16 years old, Himiko was 34.

Moral Corruption
Himiko's already shattered heart was destroyed hearing this news. She grieved for over a month straight, as she loved Akiko with all of her heart, her being the only one who could keep Himiko happy, despite her toxic behaviour towards her. Himiko blamed the clan for Akiko's death, in particular the men. In response to this, Himiko removed almost all men from the higher ranks, replacing them with women. Gen'ichi was removed from the spot of advisor, and was (temporarily) exiled from the clan as a result of Himiko's anger.

Over time, Himiko became well known for her short temper, sexist attitudes and somewhat psychopathic habits, becoming known as the clan's 'Iron Footed Dictator'. Himiko's love for children never dissipated, though some viewed it as paedophilia.

Sujimoto Moisson, Meeting Sakura Suzuki
About 10 years into leading the Moisson Clan, Himiko got into a fight with Sujimoto Moisson, the illegitimate son of a previous clan leader, Auberon Moisson. With her morals shattered and believing that Sujimoto was a shadow of his father, he snapped Himiko's left forearm in half. From this point onward, Himiko didn't dare pick a fight with him, and would eventually see that Sujimoto was not anything like his father. This would start a major shift in Himiko's character.

At some point, Himiko found a young girl outside the Moisson Clan's base, named Sakura. Himiko brought her into the base to be healed. Sakura stayed for some for a while, the two becoming great friends in that time, until Himiko eventually let her go, knowing Sakura's origins from the Suzuki Clan, and also being a reminder of Himiko's presumably deceased daughter, Akiko.

Years later, Sakura reappeared, this time being taken in by Sujimoto. This time around, she would stay 'permanently'. Not long after Sakura being brought in, Himiko would find that she had feelings for Sujimoto. Despite the age difference, by this time, Himiko knew Sujimoto was a really nice person, and after finding out he returned Sakura's feelings, she supported the idea. Just weeks after the two first met, they began dating. While Himiko was happy for them, she began to realise how lonely she was, beginning to long for a lover.

3 months into Sakura and Sujimoto dating, the former was presumably killed by her own mother, Hana Suzuki. Both Himiko and Sujimoto were left heartbroken, and vengeful as a result of this.

However, Sakura would reappear once again some time after, and would fall pregnant with Sujimoto's child.

Falling for Raymond Nakamura, Marriage and First Child
After noticing Himiko's declining happiness from her lack of a significant other, Sakura set Himiko up on a blind date with a man named Raymond Nakamura. After finding out, Himiko was at first very against going, but changed her mind after some convincing. She met up with Raymond at a beach, initially jumping to the conclusion that she would never fall for him, though by the end of the date she questioned the possibility, having exchanged numbers with him and asking if they could meet up again.

Himiko put off meeting up again for some time, though eventually, she met up with Raymond again. Partway through the date, Himiko knew she was in love with him, despite having previously denied the possibility. Soon after, they began dating. It wouldn't be long until Himiko would fall pregnant with his child, but due to her past with Akiko, Himiko feared being a 'bad parent', and also was scared of what Raymond would say about it. She didn't tell him about her pregnancy for months, until he found out for himself, unknown to Himiko. A few days later, Himiko found out he knew and quickly made amends with him.

Raymond proposed a few months later, Himiko, overjoyed, happily accepting. Another few months later, Himiko gave birth to a baby girl, who her and Raymond named Airi Nakamura.

Personality
"Oh. No, no, no! You think I hate men? That's where you're wrong, my dear... I loathe them... If I could, I'd exile or kill every last one of them! But sadly, even in the position of leader, I can't see such a thing through..."Himiko is a controlling, demanding and rather sexist person, with a few psychopathic tendencies. Despite this, she has an undying love for children.

In her childhood, Himiko at surface level appeared somewhat smug, impulsive and even cocky. Deep down, however, Himiko felt lonely, only having two friends in the clan, Aeryssa, then Morgan. Himiko's rather fierce protective and caring side emerged, perhaps acting somewhat shy around Morgan leading up to confessing her love for her. Himiko was easily flustered, complimenting her shyness around Morgan. She had a slightly more obsessive side, and she often was considered a Tsundere.

While Himiko was never one to feel 'hopelessness', this was all she ever felt initially, particularly after the arranged marriage between herself and Davorin. She gained a more resilient attitude after discovering more of her ancestry, and after finding a possible solution to getting out of the marriage, Himiko became determined to follow through with it. She was heartbroken to find Morgan attempting suicide after being missing, but was determined to see her idea of killing off Auberon and Davorin through.

While Himiko never exactly knew how to parent, she loved Akiko with all of her heart. Himiko was incredibly protective of her, so much so that she was willing to protect Akiko at just about any cost, even if it meant killing someone, even herself to do so. Himiko did have a tendency to fear having to be 'tough' on Akiko when necessary, as a result her extreme love and protectiveness of her. Losing Akiko took a huge toll on Himiko, gradually leading to her personality becoming drastically twisted in many aspects. Himiko gained a heavy grudge against Morgan, soon enough declaring war on the Mirazha Clan after losing Akiko. She became very bitter at the mere mention of her, from that point onward believing Morgan to have never had any good, claiming that Morgan was 'deceiving her from the very beginning'.

Himiko's previous experiences inclined her to doing what she described as 'enabling equality' for women in the clan, although the reality was that the inequality was partly reversed in favour of women. Knowing that men were still necessary, some were kept in the higher ranks, and she gave them a set of rights that were somewhat equal with the clan's women, only to prevent them revolting against her. Arranged marriages were outlawed, as well as abortions and any form of violence against women. Himiko's sexist attitudes meant that most men in the upper ranks were either forced to step down, exiled or killed, only to be replaced by women of Himiko's choosing. She blamed 'men' for many of her past problems, this being the main motive for her sexist persona.

Himiko also became rather cruel and self-centred, in addition gaining a demanding demeanour. On top of this, Himiko was very unforgiving to those who turned against her, often killing them or torturing them, sometimes even bathing in the blood of those she executed.

Her personality generally quite unpredictable, as she can go from her general cruelty, to being really gentle and caring, as well as even becoming extremely emotional.

Appearance
Himiko is a tall woman of an average-athletic build, often being considered 'beautiful', mainly due to her well defined hourglass figure and her oddly young looks for her age (her build became more curvy as she aged). However, by the time Himiko was in her fifties, she developed visible cheekbones, and dark under-eye circles, which she often hid with makeup. She has prominent freckles below her eyes, as well as on her shoulders, on her forehead, elbows, back and various other parts of her body. She has mismatching coloured eyes, her right eye being a violet-purple and the left eye dimly glowing a goldish-yellow colour. Himiko has the ability to change the colour of both of her eyes to a 'normal' hazel, to help her blend in. She has long, black hair which she usually has done up in a braid. Other unusual features include Himiko's sharp fangs, and forked serpent-like tongue. She also has a tattoo of a rose on the left side of her hip as well as another 'floral' tattoo under her left breast.

Himiko usually wears a short black and purple kimono (often considered a little too short), sometimes adorned with silver cherry blossom patterns, with a purple obi and silver shoulder armour, adorned with the symbol of the Moisson Clan. She also wears black combat boots and long stockings During her duties as the Moisson Clan leader, she wears makeup, as well as a longer, fancier and more flowy kimono, with a high split up her right leg. She also has both of her ears pierced.

Himiko's right leg was replaced by a prosthetic after having it blasted off by Morgan. Its design varied depending on what she was doing or wearing, and over time the designs changed as Himiko got older.

Abilities

 * Dark Magic - A very common ability amongst the Moisson family, which Himiko is very skilled at.
 * Balance Magic - A recessive ability that Himiko has never used, nor is aware of. It can be traced back to Himiko's father, Maxwell, and to the Kujisaki Clan.
 * Destruction - Directly inherited from her mother, Rumina and the Oni. Himiko does not know how to use this ability well.
 * Shapeshifting - Himiko taught herself how to alter her facial features. She is able to change the colour of her eyes, as well as being able to change the appearance of her teeth and tongue, to make her appear more 'human'.
 * Teleportation - Himiko can teleport at any time at will, though over time it can tire Himiko out or make her sick. This ability works within a radius of up to 6 - 8 meters.
 * Nāga Venom - Himiko is capable of producing a toxic venom that can paralyse or even kill a person. The effects can vary on her emotional state. How she is capable of this is said to be due to a blood curse that ran in her father's side of the family.

Trivia

 * Himiko has severe PTSD due to losing Akiko.
 * Himiko is known to temporarily 'take unwell young children in' to nurse them back to health, before letting them go. She can get rather clingy and protective of them.
 * One of these children was a young Sakura Suzuki, who Himiko became incredibly close with.
 * This might be partly due to Sakura baring a close resemblance to Himiko's own daughter, Akiko.
 * Despite her immense love for children, the degree of Himiko's protectiveness lessens as children become teens.
 * As Himiko is a direct descendant of a Kujisaki family member, she is considered an heir to the Kujisaki Clan.
 * Himiko's mismatching eyes (as a result of heterochromia) symbolise the two families she descends from - the Kujisaki and Moisson families. This can also represent two of her abilities, Dark Magic and Balance Magic.
 * Himiko is a very unique hybrid, being mainly of Oscuri and Isorropía descent. She has a small amount of human blood, as well as Nāga blood, the latter originating from a blood curse put upon her grandmother.
 * She does have an alternate 'demon' form, being unique due to her very mixed blood.
 * She is incredibly unstable in this form, and will more than likely fall temporarily unconscious after reverting to her 'normal' form.
 * Himiko's namesake, the human Queen Himiko of 3rd Century Japan, was a descendant of the highly worshipped Kami, Amaterasu. Amaterasu may have been worshipped in the form of a snake, a nod to the blood curse Himiko Moisson possesses.
