Tale
''Togo surveyed the gathered group of new inductees into the Shing Jea monastery. To himself, he sighed. This would be her year, he'd thought. This girl had been under his care for some time, and now he must step out of the role of a father and become solely a teacher. He spotted her, lurking in the back. Her hair had grown out, silky and brown. Her skin was amber, and highly accented her glittering dark eyes. The lower half of her face was hidden by a dark red cloth. She wore a loose cloth outfit of the same colour as her mask. She hung apart from the others, her attention gazing from Togo, to some of the students, then back to Togo, who sighed. "You're a grown woman now, Oniko. May you yet find happiness in the world." He whispered, and then began to address the students as a whole.''

Details
Name: Oniko Origin: Shing Jea Island, Cantha Age: 19/22/25 Birthdate: 334, Kainengtah, 1564 CC Birthplace: Linkei Township, Haiju Lagoon, Shing Jea Island Affiliations: Shing Jea Monastery, Luxon Armada, Order of the Sunspears

History
Oniko, as she is known now, was born in Linkei township to a pair of retired soldiers. Now wealthy, her father Mitsuo dreamed of a fantastic life for his daughter. Her mother, Kaede, was focussed on raising the girl to be both intelligent and strong. Both of her parents had served in the Imperial Guard of Cantha, and in their retirement had moved to Shing Jea Island to live in peace. However, their wealth compared to the local villagers attracted too much attention for their own good. When Oniko was nine years old, a pair of bandits broke into her house while the family was asleep. Killing the aged Mitsuo and Kaede, they let Oniko live in order to have some "fun". Each wielding a knife, they cut and sliced into her face, her tears mingling with the blood dripping from the wounds. Then, as they both set their knives aside, one holding down her thin frame while the other prepared to mount her, the taste of her own blood and tears calling forth a surge of defiance she had not felt before. Deftly slipping out of the grasp of one man, she managed to take hold of both knives. It was only afterward, as she stumbled out of the house naked and covered in blood, that she recognized the mens' faces: they were merchants her father had previously dealt with. The villagers recognized this fact immediately, and came to the conclusion that the four adults had met amiably before the daughter had killed them all. She ran from the mob, pelted with rocks and curses. They called her a demon-child, an Oni. Few of them had known her real name, and even they forgot it as she vanished into the night. She made her way to Seitung Harbour, where a concerned guardsman brought her to Master Togo at the Monastery, who did his best to heal her wounds. When asked her name, she responded only with the curse the villagers had labelled her: Oniko. And so she's been known since.

Behavior
Oniko, since she arrived at the Monastery, has acted cold and distant from almost everyone except for Master Togo. She spent her time learning to fight properly, utilizing the same two knives she had taken from the bandits. Learning the deft and deadly art of the Canthan Assassins, she uses her agility and accuracy both to strike the vital spots of her enemies and dodge attacks effectively.
