Basic Information
_____________________________

• Name: Jikoku "IKO" Haguruma
• Titles: IKO , Doom-Bot, KYU
• Age: 741
• Gender: FEMALE
• Affiliation/Rank: Rogue
• Origin: JAPAN
• Siblings: UNKNOWN
• Orientation: Pansexual

• Appearance Description: Jikoku AKA, IKO, Is a five foot tall slender female cyborg. She was modeled after the daughter of a scientist, whose daughter was quite athletic and a very passionate ballet dancer, this transferred over into the appearance of Iko. Iko has a levitating torso balancing on the top of a waste in which a clockwork themed tutu ticks and spins around her as she moves and spins herself. she resembles a ball jointed doll, and this allows for incredible movement on her part. She has glowing blue eyes and her “hair” is tucked into a neat polish bun. On her back sticks out an ENORMOUS wind up key. The key itself is in constant motion and has stopped turning multiple times. However, after meeting Kyo, Iko was given a ball. Ikos “ball” acts as a charger, and also as a sort of storage for data on enemies or anyone whom Iko comes across. The ball itself will attach itself to her, and wind her up when she begins to feel herself slowing down. A very defining but easily overlooked aspect of Orianna is her very delicate slender fingers...they’re not rounded off such as human fingers but instead, double as very SHARP claws.

Personality

• Personality: Jikoku is more robot than human and thus does not have an exactly defined personality, however, much like any learning robot, she gains a faulty human understand so she is better able to relate and understand those she assists. When first introduced to Kyo, Iko had a very cold, distant, dead...robotic personality, however, with permission, Vi tweaked her, installing much needed software and after the gift of the orb, she quickly began to adapt and learn select emotions...such as humor, happiness, sorrow, envy, hatred, all but love. Iko doesn’t wish to possess such things, so for the most part, she is a very level headed individual who keeps to herself but is always willing and happy to help.

Jikoku has been known to tell rather poor and even ridiculous jokes...the vast majority of them being, you guessed it, puns. She loves a good joke but is still working on timing. She is a very intelligent robot with the ability to learn and address situations as she judges and sees fit using algorithms and math to assist with such decisions in terms of what type of approach to take to react to certain times. Long story short, Iko is incredibly friendly unless instructed to be otherwise.

Natural Attributes & Supernatural Powers

• Natural Attributes: Jikoku is a walking death threat. She does not rely on speed but rather pure agility, flexibility, and strength. Her hits deal an astounding amount of damage and being able to contort and bend her body into odd positions helps immensely while fighting. However, Iko’s purpose when being involved in fights is usually not to fight but fuel Vi up whenever she’s low on steam. Iko has stopped working and malfunctioned in battle. When this happens she somewhat just...falls over, and looks to have broken to pieces. With a few clicks of her wind up key, and she’s back to business.

Another natural ability of hers that makes her somewhat of a wanted “item” is the fact that, as long as you can wind Iko up, she will never go out… essentially, this means she is a powersource on legs. It is unsure just how much she has within her seeing as there’s no safe way to measure it but Vi has compared her “core” to that of a star. Burning continuously until there’s nothing left. Iko will argue this saying while the comparison is somewhat true, she will never run out as long as the gears in her body can be wound up.

THE BALL. The ball Iko is shown to be carrying around with her, is what handles the majority of fights for the robot girl. The ball was built by Vi whom has made MULTIPLE changes to further advance the balls power. Vi got the second best power source to fuel the ball, nuclear power. The ball is of a “super intelligent nature” that is “perfectly in sync with its master (Jikoku)” Whenever fighting happens, the ball is equipped with rotating blades in which Iko can either punch, or throw forward or even will use it with a ball and chain technique, using a strengthened steel chain to swing the ball INCREDIBLE distances. The chain itself has a retracting chain in which the chain itself is about ten yards in length. The ball has a very obvious “eye socket” which will never stop moving. This eye socket will read situations, enemies or just an area and send information back to Iko “telepathically” this in itself will help brace Iko before a fight and tell her if the fight is worth it. The ball in fact is the only thing that can not be broken by just anyone. The only person whom would even be slightly capable of such an action would maybe be Nemain. Vi however has forbade Iko from stepping to Nemain for fear that something bad would happen to the fragile robot girl. Iko herself can most likely be torn to pieces if an enemy can get their hands on her but due to the shocking effect her body has on enemies this course of action most likely will not be taken. The Ball also has a slight amount of free will, acting as a shield. If someone gets a tad too close the ball will block Iko, but can be knocked back if hit with a direct punch. If the eye socket on the ball (which is an extremely vulnerable spot) were to be shattered, or absolutely smashed, Iko would be forced to fight without getting a proper reading. This in itself can cut her chances of victory down by about twenty percent.

• Powers: Iko is simply a humanoid robotic shell. Everything in her (for the most part) is artificial, except for the soul within. Because of this fact, she is able to use reiatsu.

• Pure Abilities: Being a robot, IKO has the power to concentrate staggering amounts of electricity in any given part of her body. However the transition can take enough time to leave her vulnerable against a speedier opponent. For example, the time it takes to channel the power is about 2.5 seconds, in that time, she can kinda push herself to have her opponent make contact with her, however, since majority of her opponent are stronger and faster, she has to time this perfectly or risk getting punched and cracked or broken.

However, this move does not happen on its own, and can easily be dispelled, and she can and HAS made herself a walking ball of power. This is why in bigger fights, she is a necessity to Vi, whom must keep her gauntlets charged or risk having to fight hand to hand, wasting stamina. In terms of the effect this could have on opponents, it could leave them with only a slight shock. It’s mostly used as a cop out, the first two hits dealt from enemies surprises them, confusing them and making them think that physical contact is not allowed, so this is the true vantage point of this ability.

Sacred Release

• Sacred Release Appearance:

Spoiler:

• Sacred Release Powers: Whilst in this state, Iko can better control her electrical spasms and can focus it to her palms and fists and gets a slight but noticeable speed boost(about a 10% speed boost). The ball and chain is still used however with the better control of electricity, Iko will channel more of it into the ball through the chain, becoming a rather shocking enemy. She also has a far faster reaction time but due to her lack of speed it still somewhat keeps her grounded. This reaction time improvement though will be enough to give her somewhat of a vantage point when fighting with the ball.

Ascended Sacred State

•Ascended Sacred State Appearance:

Spoiler:

• Ascended Sacred State Powers: When Iko releases her spirit power her robot body takes on a whole different form. This form in itself, is her natural form. Seeing as she is so old, it makes absolute sense that she would appear to be an older japanese doll. When this form is activated, hardly any words are spoken, and IKO can take this form in a matter of seconds. The ball she uses to fight will find a comfortable place on the floor, and sit, not moving at all. She will rip pieces of her own body off and then proceed to craft four separate swords with the use of her reiatsu. Her speed whilst in this form, triples, giving her incredible amounts of speed. While in this form, she also uses solar power while in this form, which is the sole reason why her power becomes so extreme. The swords shes crafted are made from a very complex but balanced amount of copper and silver. She then will direct every bit of electrical charge she can control, to the blades. The amount of electricity being circulated in the swords is so great that the swords will over glow blue, and the crackling of the power can be heard over a few yards.

While in this form, absolute abuse of the ball occurs as well. The ball being as strong as it is though, can take the hits with little to no problems. It is often that Iko will simply kick the ball at opponents and use it as a true ball during fighting, stopping to kick it back to their bodies, faces, anything to land a hit. The blades on the ball are weak enough to where they don't cut her, and can be blocked with a sword. Swords are strong enough to pierce her body. In this form though, her skin has found itself a bit more resistant to cuts and cracking. Iko becomes an absolute ruthless death machine when this form is activated and often has to be DEACTIVATED by Vi. This happens when the key in her back is removed or whenever the target enemy has been killed.

Background History

• Background: Jikoku Hagaruma was born in an upper class family who served the emperor in the early period of Japan when Samurai found themselves excelling in the nations armies. Iko found herself becoming somewhat of a performer, dancing and singing songs for the courts. Her dancing style was best compared to modern ballet. She would often twirl and spin about, ribbons in hand, face painted white as her lengthy black hair was pulled into a tight bun upon the top of her head. She was a young girl. Only the age of thirteen years when she met her soon to be husband. A samurai general in the emperor's army. Marrying him was more for her family than herself, and though Iko was a silent obedient girl, she refused to marry the elderly man, and ran away. She stole his army, and began to run rogue, taking care of thing as she saw fit. When she reached seventeen years of age, a fight had earned her an arrow in the lower back. It was removed and the enemy has been slain but she’d found herself extremely ill. She soon found herself under the care of her great uncle, a medicine man whom was known for his healing remedies and his masterpieces. A doll maker. While he was able to extend Ikos life for nearly a year, eventually, death overtook the poor girl, and she passed that winter.

When Jikoku opened her eyes once more, she’d found herself, in a hollow shell. Remembering her past but with little understanding of why or what had caused it and caused her to feel such a way. She was locked away...being in the form she in was not truly intentional and many had assumed the ritual to be a failure. As it should have been. This time locked away, did nothing but made Iko realize more and more that she was a mistake. In life, and being forced to continue on. So, she shut herself down. Until some few years later, was reactivated by her uncle, whom was obviously breaching the unforgiving waters of death. In his few final moments, he requested Jikoku stay by his side, and she did as asked. Next, she was handed a rather large book, each page written upon and covered in advanced drawings of. Her. He was going to improve her. Build her better… The girl cried that day as her uncle died in her arms. For the next few centuries, she roamed rural Japan. Staying close to the wilderness, knowing she was not ready to deal with modern society yet.

Eventually, Vi came across her, and removed the large key from her back, dragging her back to her home, Vi found the journal, and following it as best as the engineer could, constructed Jikoku a new, proper functional form. Using more “magic” and spiritual energy she gave Jikoku incredible abilities. Iko reawoke to be presented with the changes and was told her purpose was to live and be her own person. Iko nodded, agreed but even to this day refers to Vi as “master” or “mistress” and follows orders down to the last detail. She now roams with Vi, and has sworn to help her take down her nemesis.
