Physical Appearance:

• Tall, athletic woman standing 5'9" (175 cm. She is a tall, slender, humanoid omnic with a highly stylized, uncanny human-like design. Her body is predominantly white/silver with smooth, segmented plating that mimics a feminine form.
• Head/Face: Long, straight, flowing white-silver hair that falls past her shoulders. Two small, glowing red horn-like protrusions on her forehead. Her face has a pale, porcelain-like quality with subtle mechanical seams. She features striking red markings/tattoos under and around her sharp, red-tinted eyes, giving her an intense, dangerous look.
• Porcelain-like synthetic “skin” on the face with minimal visible seams.
• Human-like eyes (red-tinted) that can form expressions, but they are actually apertures — they don’t have true eyelids; instead, they iris or shutter when she “blinks.”
• Mouth does not move when she speaks. Her voice comes from glowing cybernetic speakers in her neck/throat area.
• Small red horn-like protrusions and red facial markings that look almost like tattoos but are likely painted or inlaid plating.
• Faint Omnic ID dots (the standard glowing markers all Omnics have) are partially visible under her hair at the back
• Outfit: A sleek, high-fashion combat bodysuit in white and black with gold/bronze accents. The suit is form-fitting, emphasizing her athletic yet curvaceous figure. She wears a tailored white jacket/coat with structured shoulders and red details, layered over the suit. Gold emblems and buckles adorn her waist and hips. The white jacket is riveted and spiked directly into her chassis — large metal plates pin the jacket to her body, especially across the chest. Much of her midriff and torso plating is exposed beneath the open jacket, showing black/silver panels with glowing yellow/red accent lights. The design emphasizes a sleek, luxurious “second skin” aesthetic rather than bulky armor.
• Arms & Hands: Black and red armored gauntlets. She's dual-wielding a pair of ornate, high-tech pistols — black with red and gold detailing, glowing blue elements on the sides.
• Legs: The bodysuit continues into white trousers. with black circular accents (possibly ports or joints). She wears striking red high-heeled boots with gold trim, combining elegance and lethality.
• Overall Aesthetic: Cyberpunk crime-lord chic — a mix of high-fashion tailoring, futuristic armor, and yakuza-inspired flair. The color palette is dominated by white, black, red, and gold, creating a sharp, luxurious, and intimidating presence. The lighting highlights her polished, reflective surfaces and glowing red accents.

Personality:

• Shion is defined for her blood thirst of thrilling violence, due to the upbringing she experienced in the Omnic Crisis, as well as her captivity in the Hashimoto Clan. As a result of this experience, she holds an immense hatred for humanity, viewing them to be both cruel and selfish in nature, but weak and incapable of as individuals. Her lack of mercy and willingness to kill innocent people makes her a feared crime lord within Tokyo.
• Since rising in power as the sole Elder of the Hashimoto Clan, Shion basks herself in a hedonist life that allows her reputation to grow amongst those that fear her. As part of her wealthy status, she particularly enjoys indulging herself in fashion, lovers and having her own custom motorcycles.
• Shion is also known for exploiting others, out of her desire to have everything for herself. Her relationship with Mizuki shows this side of her that demonstrates both her manipulative nature, as well as her obsession for Mizuki in particular. To keep him in check, she inflicts the same ruthless training and ideology that her captors subjected to her, whilst acting motherly and affectionate towards him in an attempt to keep him by her side.
• Because of the nature of their relationship, she does not take it well when he ultimately ends up defecting from her, showcasing a side of her that is dangerously unhinged and wrathful, determined to bring him back to her by any means necessary.

Background:

• Like countless other omnics, Shion was cajoled into fighting for Anubis during the Omnic Crisis. In many parts of the world, the Awakening led to a peaceful ceasefire - but in Tokyo, terror and confusion only led to further conflict. Shion's own Awakening was scored with screams and gunfire as she dug herself free from the casualties of war. Knowing only danger and death, Shion fled from the wreckage and kept fighting.
• Shion survived for weeks on the streets in a state of fear, killing anyone she encountered. Meanwhile, tension and resentment still defined the relationship between omnics and humans in Tokyo, and local gangs took to the streets to mistreat and hunt down omnics as a form of ‘justice’. Eventually, a group of these criminals—humans who would go on to found the Hashimoto Clan—defeated Shion and took her captive.
• Rather than kill Shion, the Hashimoto saw her potential as a way for them to gain power. They decided to train against her, honing their fighting techniques. If the Hashimoto were to become Tokyo’s deadliest blade, she would be the steel they sharpened against: a killer with machine-like precision but an unpredictable, sentient spark. For Shion, the war raged on, relentless in its cruelty. But secretly, Shion held back—pulling her punches and learning her captors’ weaknesses so she might someday overtake them.
• In all that time, Shion only saw glimpses of the outside world. Treated poorly by the Hashimoto, she knew herself not as an omnic but as “inhuman”, and had little opportunity to gain a sense of self. Shion had long since conquered any fear of her captors - violence, in its consistency, had almost become a comfort - but she had to believe there was more to life than survival. If she wanted anything, it was to be free of her imprisonment and to punish those who kept her in a cage.
• In time, Shion's captors - now revered elders in the clan - grew complacent and dropped their guard in her presence. Shion saw her opportunity and broke free, leaving a trail of death in her wake that ended with the murder of all four Hashimoto elders. Finally, Shion had control over her own fate. She quickly seized her chance at power, creating a fifth seat on the council of elders for herself, and forcing those she had spared to fight for the chance to rule by her side.
• Using her newfound wealth and power, Shion transformed herself—modifying her chassis to suit her desire and crafting a mask that would instill fear. The result was something uncanny: something neither human nor omnic.
• As a show of power, Shion forced Toshiro Yamagami - a weaponsmith imprisoned by the Hashimoto - to craft her a unique pair of anima pistols, among other anima weapons. She threatened his life in order to get what she wanted. She also took in a young Mizuki Kawano, who she trained to be a weapon of both force and manipulation. She introduced Mizuki to Toshiro, threatening his safety in order to get the bladesmith to work quicker.
• Over time, Mizuki, who she often referred to as Obake-kun, survived all of Shion's harsh training without breaking. Declaring him a true Hashimoto, she gave him a gift: kunai. At around the same time, she heavily injured Mizuki's left arm, to send Toshiro a message - if he did not work faster, she would take the entire arm. Mizuki later ended up with a fully mechanical left arm, implying Shion made good on her threat.
• Shion later commanded Mizuki to infiltrate and destroy the Yōkai. However, he failed to send any reports, and it was rumored that the Yōkai had befriended Mizuki.
• Alongside the other Hashimoto elders, Shion was present when Hanzo Shimada was brought before them to be executed. However, due to the sudden intervention of a fox ninja and her blue kitsune, as well as Null Sector drop pods raining down on Tokyo, she and the other Hashimoto evacuated in an armored convoy.
