Name: Keiko Nakajima
Age: 20
Nationality: Japanese
Biography: Keiko was born in Okinawa Japan, her father being a Japanese of mixed decent and her mother a Vriskae, inheriting her mothers pink hair which served to mark her as different from birth. For 5 years, Keiko had 2 loving parents who did everything to make her life happy, trying to live a normal life outside of the system and away from prejudice. Then one day, her mother simply vanished, leaving with the rest of the Vriskae without so much as a goodbye. Keiko's dad took the news hard, struggling to continue running the small bakery he'd started along with Keiko's help, homeschooling her as best as he could, and buying keiko textbooks to read from and learn. Her father Toshi had given up everything of his old life for her mother, His life as a working at the military base, most of his friends and family, and now had nothing but her. Keiko grew to resent her mother, reminded of her whenever she looked in the mirror, and for many years dyed her hair in an attempt to move on with her life and hide what she was. However, she developed super strength around her teens, along with her other strange abilities, and struggled to hide them whenever possible, to conceal them and repress them for her struggling fathers sake. Their bakery modestly but constantly had whispers of the owners dealings with the Vriskae, and while her father tried to hide it, Keiko felt the strain she put on her father. Toshi often had a dream of sending Keiko to America, himself being the son of a former military man and having dual citizenship, but always dismissed it as the dreams of an old man, thinking their life here wasn't so bad.
Then one day, while Keiko was off getting supplies for her father, a group of political anti-starborn extremists got wind of her fathers former relationship, and set the bakery on fire. Keiko arrived to see the building in flames, their leader standing on her fathers bloody and beaten body with a bat in his hand, and the group responsible trying to encourage others to join them in driving the "Vriskae Occupiers" off. Keiko felt something snap inside, and confronted the men, which ended with her slamming their van on top of one of their leaders, crushing him to death. Keiko picked up her father and ran back towards their home, carrying him the whole way as his injuries proved too great for him to live through. Toshi knew he was dying, and before he passed on, told her to grab what was in the family safe and use it to find a better life before he passed on. She laid him to rest on his futon, a picture of her and her mother besides him. Keiko looked into the safe, and found a few thousand dollars worth of money, a plane ticket, and false ID, enough to get her through customs and into the united states. She used them, flying to the one place she thought she might have a chance of finding a fresh start, Ambrosia.

Facets:
Forces > Gravity
Keiko's main specialization is in manipulating gravity, usually in making "gravity bubbles", small areas where gravity is weaker or stronger, with the more distract effect having a smaller area. Keiko also usus her gravity powers to make herself lighter, able to leap higher and jump farther thanks to it, or use it to make things easier to pick up, and much heavier when thrown. Keiko can also call upon Kinetic Manipulation, but she only knows how to in enhancing her bodies own kinetic output, usually in a punch or kick, and often with a lot more concentration.
