Appearance

Kyna is a very 'what you see is what you get' kind of woman. She dresses very practically and can vary for whichever situation she may be in. More often than not, people will find her in casual combat gear with a pair of goggles that may be used for a multitude of purposes. Some knives and ranged weaponry may be seen, hinting to the fact that this woman is a walking weapon, and that there is probably more that one may not be able to see at first glance.

She wears expensively tailored suits and many assume her to be some kind of CEO or government employee. Other times, notably in her off-hours, she can be seen in jeans (Sometimes with a camouflage design) and tank-top or simple shirt.
Her right arm is heavily tattooed.
She is athletic and toned, yet walks with a strange noble grace.
For all intents and purposes, she looks human. However it is her eyes that are usually the first thing people notice. They are an inhuman purple (An iris may or may not be present), and they seem to glow in dimly lit areas.

Recent Affairs

Kyna's history is extensive and convoluted, and outlining her history would fill a novel.

Simply put, she has followed Madgod Matthias into this particular timeline and acts as his Gatekeeper. She keeps a close eye on him to make sure he does not slip into one of his omni-cidal phases. He is her primary charge, but she fills her time performing hero work. Unknown to the public however, she does perform assassinations as well (Though she makes sure they deserve it).

Personality and Lifestyle

The first word that comes to mind for most people regarding Kyna is "classy". She has off days and lazy-days like everyone else, but for the most part she maintains grace, style, and class. She wears expensive suits, orders top-shelf liquor, and plays the violin for special guests to her apartments.
Her sense of humor is based primary on sarcasm, and she respects others who engage in such styles of conversations. To her, sarcasm implies wit, and she has more respect for those of moderate intelligence.

Powers / Abilities

The usual fare of shadow abilities that most Trahl'es'das have, it also infuses into her martial abilities.

She is an incredibly brutal and efficient martial artist. Some may think she fights dirty but she was trained (And designed) to win. From dust-throwing to crotch-slamming, she will make sure to disable her enemy.

She can learn her enemy as she is fighting them. She is able to calculate multiple moves in advance, multiple outcomes, and possible attacks from the enemy. For example, if she notices an enemy has a regenerative ability, she will calculate how quickly it is and inflict more wounds based on healing speed.

All of this is mostly based around being a Trahl. If her innate shadow abilities are debilitated (in extremely rare occasions, this is not something than be "turned off"), everything she is able to do is brought down to human-like.

Over the years she has been able to learn several world languages.

Weaknesses

As per being a Trahl, she is weak against Holy/Light/Radiant energies. Even to the extent of becoming sick in the presence of a concentrated amount of it.

The sun lessens her abilities, though her non-magic skills can usually compensate.

As noted above; If her innate shadow abilities are debilitated (in extremely rare occasions, this is not something than be "turned off"), everything she is able to do is brought down to human-like.

In a lesser form of weakness, it seems she is incapable of knowing when she is flirted with. She has been unable to figure out why. She often gets made fun of for this.

Nemesis

Extra

Barrier Maiden / She is competent in a fight.

Badass Normal / She doesn't need to use her shadow abilities to wreck someone.

Berserk Button / Don't imply that her employees are slaves, and don't joke about rape. (She's not a victim, but hates it as much as M does)

Beware the Nice Ones

Bitch in Sheeps Clothing / Mostly polite but will immediately switch to bitch mode when disrespected.

Combat Pragmatist / Don't bring a sword to a gunfight.

The Cynic / No direct reason why she's like that. Witnesses some of her interactions with the Madgod might show why.

Dark and Troubled Past / Averted. A lot has happened to her, however only a couple things actually affected her on any deep level, most of it M's fault.

Dark Magical Girl

Did You Just Punch Out Cthulu?

Disproportionate Retribution / Averted. She tries to balance punishment with the offense.

Deadpan Snarker / Can be, mostly towards the Madgod or others to act against logic.

Emotionless Girl / She's not, but many think she is due to her stoic demeanor.

The Engineer

Escape Artist

Friend in the Black Market / Sort of. She's aware sometimes shady people need her wares, but prefers them to at least -act- normal.

Fighting a Shadow

Miss Fixit / Due to her wife, Kyna has gained some moderate mechanical skill.

Morality Chain / Once. She was on a mission with minimal enemy casualties, until one of them shot her cybernetic raven down. All hell broke loose.

Girls With Guns / Do I really need to explain this one?

Glowing Eyes of Doom / Only when she's using shadow magic.

Instant Armor / Thanks to magic.

Iron Lady / Hoooo boy.

I Just Want to be Normal / But will happy be abnormal long enough to kick someone's ass.

My Eyes Are Up Here / This is why she wears suits.

Ninja

Offstage Villainy / All the "less than legal" things she does, usually occurs in the background as they're too minor to be of note. (She doesn't go around assassinating CEO's)

Only Sane (Wo)man / Often the voice of reason among a crowd of ramblers or lunatics.

Powered Armor

Royalties Heir
