Sakura

Created by Gris Lee

This self proclaimed samurai is one of Mally's bodyguards/lovers. Like Mally, her origins are shrouded in mystery, since she too appeared quite suddenly in Gehenna a few years alongside her mistress. There's theories about a possible familial connection of hers in Nirvana, but anyone who tries to investigate is swiftly dealt with. Thus, no ties can be solidified. She can usually only be seen around Mally, unless ordered otherwise. On occasion she's been seen popping up at a greenhouse, or out shopping for supplies. Sakura is loyal only to her mistress, so despite her desirable skills, she is impossible to persuade to work for anyone else. It is not wise to use force either. Few who have fought her have come out alive. Still, this hasn't stopped people from trying. In fact, it's become a trendy challenge on social media to achieve various activities involving Sakura, each one earning different amounts of points. She is not fond of the this trend, nor the fact she is forced to be involved to fend off the fools.

Personality

Sakura is a paragon of stoicism. Her years of training have helped the young samurai learn how to restrain her emotions in order to keep up the cool, intimidating presence of a warrior. Visibly, she is almost always calm. She strides with grace, tearing her blade through enemies like a gentle breeze. Usually, she can hold her tongue, responding to conversations with short, elegant statements.

However if you know how to push her buttons, then you can start to see those emotions bubble to the surface. For example, Sakura is an extremely jealous person. Her fierce loyalty and love for Mally can lead her to display outbursts of rage if someone were to insult or antagonise her idol.

Once infuriated, her cool demeanour quickly snaps. Her gentle words begin to drip with sarcasm and brutal honesty. She becomes relentless in her pursuits to the point of stubbornness. She may even continue to fight despite having lost her reason to, just out of pure spite. Her attacks become more brutal. If you don't beg forgiveness, don't expect your body to stay in one piece.

When she is not on missions or training, Sakura likes to indulge in more peaceful activities. She likes making tea for herself and her crew, believing it to be a good way to calm the senses. Sakura also likes to expand her cultural horizons, like learning a new language. She also has a couple of guilty pleasures, involving her skin care routine, trashy romance novels, and checking in on her pet horse Tomoe back in Japan.
