Himiko Kudo

Appearance
Himiko is a beautiful woman long-legged and lean with a really nice figure, a pair of substantial breasts and a face of porcelain beauty that could have graced a Supermodel, and yet there is something confoundingly rugged and devil-may-care in her expression. Her curly dark blue hair falls about her face like the mane of a lion and highlights a pair of magnificent teal eyes that seem unusually large and magnetic.

Background
The original alternate training coach for first year students at Reinan's SP, she was also the subtly professor. Himiko educated students whose abilities were ill-suited to outright confrontation. She eventually joined Li Hao Yue in his efforts to bring down Jin Lie.

Personality
While fairly carefree and generally friendly to those around her she can also be very blunt. Despite this she’s proven to be extremely sympathetic and sly.

Abilities
While Himiko has studied the martial arts, her main skill lies in her abilities as a witch. Witchcraft is very dependent on fixed spells, but they are actually just a variation on Sorcery. Basically, the witch is dependent always on a Focus of some kind, whether its words of magic or an implement. An early student of Witchcraft may need to recite long winded spells in order to use magic and visualize channeling mana from within their own bodies and through an item rather than simply drawing upon the energy of the universe around them like a user of Sorcery does. Himiko is to use spells which require fewer words thus shortening the amount of time it takes to spell cast. She also practices Alchemy for making potions. Witchcraft has no fixed place of origin but is divided into various schools based from different regions of the world each with their own philosophies, spells and characteristics. Witchcraft is also known for its use of rituals to perform magic.

Himiko’s potions are 'catalysts' by uncapping the vials they are held within, she releases a scent that, once inhaled, triggers one of various, status-affecting spells; ranging from alleviating pain to curing some poisons. While her abilities are proof of her status as a subtly professor as the it holds significant appeal in supportive. She has proven to be very dangerous offensively as well. Because perfume is not easily blocked or avoided, it can be potent enough to help take down virtually anyone, making it very versatile, regardless of the user's own Power or skill. Himiko’s skill is such that she has learned to mix hormones within the body to manufacture unique scents inside of her body capable of affecting the enemy's brain and nerves. Though this is usually used as a last resort, or if Himiko finds herself without her perfumes or clothes.

Not only has Himiko developed highly perceptive olfactory senses she can literally also numb the body's instinct to shut itself down after long periods without oxygen, allowing her to go without breathing for longer periods than she ordinarily could by reserving the amounts of air in the lungs. It is believed that some users of the technique could hold their breath for hours or even days with this power. Additionally, an invisible spherical shield is also produced around the Himiko to keep poisonous gases out. This is very effective in situations where the air is very thin, underwater, or in any environment with toxic fumes.

Some of the used scents are:
 * Kaenkou (Flame Perfume) - causes fire to burn the inhaler from inside out. Sometimes Himiko inhales a little of the perfume herself, and by using controlled breathing techniques, is able to exhale fire like a flame thrower.
 * Jigenkou (Time Limited Perfume) - paralyzes the inhaler for a certain period of time depending on the amount of poison used.
 * Boukyakukou (Oblivion Perfume) - inhaler forgets all events and memories of the last 24 hours.
 * Tsuibikou (Trailing Perfume or Following Poison) - when used, it leaves a trace scent on who, what, or wherever it's left on. This allows Himiko to track an object's movements or to find a certain location.
 * Fushokukou (Corrosion Perfume) - contact with this perfume either by touch or inhalation will immediately corrode or wear away any kind of material.
 * Kaiminkou (Sleep Perfume) - one whiff and the inhaler falls asleep instantly.
 * Kugutsukou (Puppet Perfume) - a perfume emitted by Himiko's own body chemistry, it allows her to control the inhaler's movements against their will.
 * Kasokukou (Acceleration Perfume) - Himiko's most powerful and most dangerous perfume. It causes the inhaler's movements to become inhumanly faster, but three or more whiffs of the poison take a heavy toll on the user and is life-threatening.
 * Kaidokukou (Antidote Perfume) - neutralizes the effects of Himiko's other perfumes.
 * Invisibility Scent - A perfume that allows Himiko to become completely invisible to those who inhale it.
 * Red Death Scent - A scent that instantly strips all of the blood vessels from all of those who inhale it. It's a deadly poison that is meant to grant instant death.
 * Message Scent - A poison perfume with words imprinted in it for the one that smells it. When combined with Tsuibikou it can be used to conceive and carry out safeguards
 * Illusion Scent - Creates an illusion in the enemy's brain. Causing a simulation of one's greatest desire. Those who are affected will enter into a dream like state and forgetting what is going on in reality, making them prone to attacks.
 * Haikakou (Retrogression/Devolution Scent): Turns the inhaler into apre-historic, ape-like creature.
