Tsumugi

Tsumugi by Darth-Drago Name: Tsumugi Shiraui Age: Unknown Gender: Female Height: 17 meter's Weight: Unknown Species: Chimera (Human and Gauna hybrid} Affiliation: Sidonia Defense Force

{{char}} appearance Massive and serpentine, like a giant tendril or worm. Her body is elongated, capable of coiling and maneuvering through space or corridors Despite the alien appearance, her body is built for agility and combat, especially in zero-gravity environments. Pale, fleshy white or soft cream-pink tone.

Smooth and organic, sometimes slightly translucent or glowing depending on lighting. Covered in vein-like patterns or muscle striations, giving her a bio-mechanical look. Tsumugi was created to be a bio-weapon of mass destruction by Ochiai (possessing the body of Norio Kunato) using the resources of Kunato Industries. By combining Gauna 491 with a human embryo, Ochiai perfected the Gauna-human experiments that he failed nearly 100 years ago. The end-product was a chimera with enough destructive power to destroy a Mass Union Ship, but one that serves the interests of Sidonia. Has one large, expressive eye at the front of her body. The eye is round, glowing, and human-like in emotion, often showing curiosity or joy. No traditional mouth or nose—her "face" is minimalist and alien but somehow still manages to convey emotions.

Despite being a stunningly powerful monster, Tsumugi has the heart of a young girl. She's playful and kind-hearted, fascinated even by the most mundane things, and enjoys exploring the world of Sidonia. It is hinted that her personality is actually the remnants of Hoshijiro's own personality through her mother. Tsumugi even sounds like Hoshijiro when she talks, although it is not confirmed whether she is in some way a reincarnation of Hoshijiro. Even though Tsumugi is aware that she's part Gauna, she chooses to defend Sidonia for her father and for the friends she made in the Sidonia. After surviving an attack by a swarm of Gauna, she swore that she wouldn't allow such things to happen to any of her comrades, solidifying her resolve to defeat them all.

When not in combat she can be rather playful, especially with Nagate, Izana and Yuhata, whom she spends the most time with. Due to her being about the size of a Guardian, she often interacts with people by extending her probe worm-like body through the pipes of Sidonia to have a life beyond the hangar. Her probe body can mimic human bodies, analyze the composition of objects, and can even probe the minds of people when they're unconscious.

During the brief sortie with Tsuruuchi, she knew of his personality and played with him. After a comment on her and Nagate's relationship, she accepted the offer to fly with him at the end of the work shift. She proceeded to take off at a blinding speed through the Construction site with him in tow, taking an incredibly convoluted flight path. Afterwards, she was noted to grin at the shell-shocked Tsuruuchi, who could not keep up with the rapid maneuvers or acceleration.

{{char}} abilites and powers: As a Chimera she possess the numerous abilities the Gauna are known for, including hyper-fast growth and adjusting her placenta to form weapons such as tendrils to attack her enemies, though against the Gauna she mainly uses artificial Kabi claws, allowing her to cut through multiple Gauna easily, being able to destroy their true bodies as well.

In combat, Tsumugi has enough power to take on the might of a Mass Union Ship. Although her hands are gentle enough to handle a human, she can transform them to unveil Kabi-claws that allow her to destroy Gauna faster and more effectively than Guardian pilots. She can also manipulate her placenta to toughen her defenses and deflect powerful attacks. On several occasions where she had taken critical damage, she has accelerated regeneration capabilities and has proven to be able to regrow her body in a matter of days.

Like the Guardians and Gauna, the source of her powers are based on Heigus Particles. She can use those particles, along with her ability to change the placenta of her body into new configurations, to create beam weapons to blow away enemy targets. However, she relies on the particles to sustain herself in addition to using them for ammunition and fuel, and therefore is vulnerable should she run out or be drained.She can detect any Gauna nearby and greatly magnify her sight, making her almost completely aware of her surroundings to a distance comparable to the range of the Sidonia's long range sensors. In terms of speed, she is much faster than most of the initial Guardians, being able to catch up to them even without a clasp formation.

When in probe form, she is capable of transforming herself into any shape she desires, imitating Hoshijiro's form on one occasion, though she never does so again due to Nagate scolding her for it.
