Power (List abilities, weaknesses, etc):
Hemokinesis: The ability to create, shape and manipulate blood of oneself, others or from their surroundings, whether it be from blood-banks, hospitals, or battlefields.
- Blood Marionette: This allows Izzy to use blood to control the motor functions of others against their will as if they were a marionette. She must have sight of them at all times, this does not work if the victim or item has no blood in it's body.
- Prolonged usage of a body will result in unwanted absorption, blood with leave the victim's pores and flow into her. After the body has been drained, continuing the power will backfire on her, transferring her own blood into the marionette only to take it away again. If not properly watched, prolonged use will take too much blood from the victim and kill them, having moved their blood to their limbs and not through the rest of the body.
- Blood Empowerment: Izanami becomes stronger, mentally and physically. The blood taken from others gives her as much strength as the person has/had at the time the blood was taken. Blood provides her (depending on how hydrating) with a youthful look, and will temporarily slow her aging as it's rejuvenating her cells.
- Drowning: Izzy can drown her opponents in their own blood. She does this by moving the blood to the head, almost as if the body was hanging upside down. Easier to use when the body is within her touch, as gravity and the heart also plays a role against this. The need to stop arteries from pumping the blood elsewhere, is essential. Therefore, the victim must have one or more arteries closed off.
- This is different from Marionette, as the blood is not pushed from the heart to a certain location but to many. Meaning the chance to kill is less likely than with marionette, as the blood is more likely to push against her and go with gravity, than blockages moving it manually.
- Blood Weaponization: The user is able to utilize blood with their physical combat, creating weapons or tools, enhancing their own abilities or directly manipulating their opponents blood. In order to do this, Izzy must be able to use blood from an open source, via an open wound on her body or her target's body. A targets blood is weaker depending on when Izzy has last fed. Her blood is easier to control and so she must wound herself in order to use it.
- Accelerated Healing/Blood Healing: Ami can close wounds and even heal them using her own blood, to where the wound will be fixed but only a scar remains, she cannot change how the skin will scar, just heal the damage on the inside.
- Ami cannot heal another with her blood. This will have a negative effect and may work like an incorrect blood transfusion, with the body of who she is trying to heal sending anti-bodies to attack itself. Ami can only heal a wound using the wounded's blood. Meaning cutting them from a different side to avoid contamination in order to use one side to heal the other. If there is another blood source mixed in (different blood over the victims) it will reject the help and instead attack the wounded. If the blood is a match, the healing will go like normal, unless contaminated by another source. Therefore, Ami will always make a new wound in a different, clean spot.
NOTE** Izzy is codependent on the blood of others, she does not produce blood the same way a normal human does. The process is slowed by half and the process is prolonged if she does not take in her blood type. Example: The human body takes 24 hours to replace lost plasma. It takes 48 hours for Izanami.
Ex 2: It takes longer for the body to make more red blood cells — usually between 4 to 6 weeks. For Ami it takes 8 to 12 weeks for her to produce red blood cells by herself, the process is quickened by a week if she has injested/absorbed blood of her type.
Appearance: On the outside Izzy looks like a sweet girl, perhaps one of those with a resting bitch face, standing at 5 foot 7 inches, she's taller than most girls. She gives the impression of someone who would follow the rules almost to a T, while also showing like one who should not be trusted. Her brown eyes are all too bittersweet. With hair that flows down to her elbows, it is rarely put up into ponytails or the like, but is often straight or curled. She has a couple tattoos, most of which can easily be seen with her clothing. Her lip is pierced, as well as her nipples and her nose. Tattoos:
HERE,
HERE,
HERE (Located on the outside of her right thigh, the first blood spot is on her hip)
Her lips go unnoticed, however if she were to smile, one would glimpse a double pair of elongated canines. These are what Izzy uses to collect blood and even scare children. Her fangs are as real as the rest of her teeth, however many would suggest they are fake. Izanami uses these mostly to tear open stolen blood packs (You didn't hear that from anyone). Though she will use them to puncture bare skin.
Hair: Chocolate Brown with white ends, almost like an Ombre.
Eyes: Brown, almost gold. When using her powers or feeding her inner irises will gain a reddish tinge.
Height: 5'7"
Build: Izanami is not one for heavy exercise but she is one to take Kickboxing and dance classes. Her diet isn't well established either, but she does have a fast metabolism that has yet to stop working. Prone away from most meats, she does not like Chicken or Turkey. She is slowly leaning towards a vegetarian diet (if she didn't love sushi so much).

Background: Izanami was born into a Japanese crime syndicate, her father being the lead. He would keep her at their hideout with the rest of the family for her "protection", there she stayed under his wing being near worshiped and treated like royalty by her fathers men. The men becoming her various uncles of no relations, and their wives becoming her aunts. Izzy's mother wanted nothing to do with the life, she lived far from her husband and daughter, going as far as moving to Korea, where she was sure the crimes of her husband wouldn't follow her. Izzy, being ever so devoted to her father at a young age stayed with him as much as she could, she had a guard to go to school when she was younger.
Hers powers started off hidden, so did her disease. As a young girl she was prone to falling or sustaining injuries from trying to climb or play with the uncles kids. They had played too rough and Izzy had taken a tumble when she was seven years old, breaking her arm and spraining her ankle. She had limped home, alerting her father she was limping but felt no pain, at the time feeling nothing with an arm clearly broken was a sign she was not normal.
She spent a week in the hospital, the doctors finding a blood deficiency they was unsure of why she survived long enough without infusions. Her first Infusion of the correct blood type healed her wounds within two days. As if her bones had not broken at all, X-rays only found the scars from the fall, but her bones and skin had been repaired.
Once her father realized how powerful she was, he decided she was allowed to go to high school alone, no escorts. She easily made friends, was able to keep them so it wasn't a lack of social issues. Half of her school career was spent with her father, this time she was to spend a year with her mother in Korea. Where she gained a crush on a Korean named HyukJin. Working that whole year to learn enough Korean to communicate, they became close and Izzy hoped it would go further, having given her the impression he wanted more from her.
Convinced she was going to be asked to prom, HyukJin instead asked another girl, at friend at the time, Su-Yeon. Without her best friend in Korea with her, Izanami felt the rage that came with it. Her father had taught her a valuable lesson, 'If you're going to kill, do it for those who deserve it' and to her HyukJin deserved all of it. The night of Prom Izanami arrived in the dress she had planned for HyukJin. Met him on the dance floor and gave him one kiss, the first kiss with him she had always wanted. But this was for revenge, and it tasted far sweeter than she thought it would.
As she kissed him, unbeknownst to him, she was shutting his arteries.. blocking blood from reaching his heart until she absorbed what she needed from him. The paler he became the stronger she felt, her kiss would be the last he would receive, and it was only natural to assume she would go after Su-Yeon next. The girl only got a slap across the face, and the joy of watching her prom date escorted to the hospital.
She had moved back to Japan years later, the loss of her mother caused a rebellion inside the girl. She began clubbing and became a black widow to males and women alike, not allowing them the chance to survive her attacks. Izanami's 21st birthday was the day her best friend returned to her life on a fateful night. He couldn't stop the three brothers from beating her, not that she could feel it, but he did stop them from doing something worse. Unable to face her father and explain what she had done in Korea, Fujin took her to his apartment, where the two had gotten drunk. It was the first time she had been able to feed from someone so willingly, and it became more between the two.
Japan had become a dull existence for Izzy, and she had hinted to Fujin of leaving for a private school in the US. Even as she had not told her father, he knew of her plans. Sending their best assassin, her best friend, to protect her on whichever path she decided to take in America. A year later Fujin and Izanami moved to West Virginia and have been inseparable since.

Extra:
* Loves Caligraphy.
* "A stake to the heart is enough to kill anyone"
* Twists her hair when she's bored.
* Izanami has
Congenital Analgesia- meaning she's got an insensitivity to pain. Her nerves do not react to pain like a normal human. She could be stabbed and feel nothing. She can feel like any normal person, pleasure, etc. But her nerves do not send messages to her brain to let her know she's in pain, therefore she feels little to nothing.This comes in handy when getting into fights or when she must wound herself to collect blood, but it's also difficult, for she cannot tell when she's dug too deep.
* Her Analgesia also means she does not sweat, and cannot feel temperature's like the skin should. She cannot tell what is hot by touch and cannot tell what is cold, even if her body reacts to it, ie: Getting burned.
* Her father took her to the zoo once when she was 4 years old. She had gotten too close to the monkey exhibit and a monkey had pulled her hair, the creature didn't let go until Izzy broke down in tears. She hates monkeys to this day.
* Due to travelling with her father and his men throughout her life, Iza knows Japanese, Chinese, Korean and English. Japanese being the language she knows the most, her native language. Korean is the second, only because she had a crush on a Korean in high school, his name was HyukJin, and she'll never let it go that he didn't take her to Prom. She refused his heart blood until it stopped beating. He died within minutes, doctors never understood why.
