Kaneko Fujiyama

Back

From an old money family crushed by the Syndicate in Abe's Japan. They turned to Sandaime Umi no Maou for aid, and promised him Kaneko's hand in marriage. At this, she fled.

Paradigm: The material world is an illusion. An enlightened mind can see beyond its illusions and rearrange them

Foci

• Meditation
• Martial arts
• Traditional medicine (anma, kampou, reiki)

Rotes

• Split the Water's Surface - life 3 direct damage
• Curved Mirror Reflection - better body
• Refilling the Vessel - life 2/3 heal

Act Without Attachment

• Life 3, Mind 3
• Ignore all debilitating physical and mental conditions, including wound penalties and distractions

Alternation of Masks

• Life 3, Mind 3
• Alter one's form to become like another person, and also appear like them in behaviour and mannerisms.

Porcelain Doll Form

• Life 3, Mind 3
• She who adopts this form has the appearance of an inanimate ornament that is where it should be, and can maintain this position indefinitely without exhaustion or relief.
• The related bone doll form perfectly imitates a dead body.

Ten Thousand Mirror Form

• Mind 3
• The martial artist reflects themselves in the spray of the world. For each success beyond the second, they gain one illusory action which can be assigned each round as normal extra actions. These cannot take them out of the same space as their real actions occupy.

Rippling Water Form

• Mind 3
• The martial artist's precise location and movements are misleading and difficult to discern. All dexterity-based attacks and defences against her are at +1 difficulty per success.

Witch Doll Form

• Life 3
• The true combat form of Fujiyama style women. The two initial successes of this vulgar rote grant lethal stamina soak and razor-sharp nails that deal str +2 lethal damage. Additional successes can be used to add health levels and increase physical attributes without limit, but if any attribute becomes higher than appearance, the martial artist's appearance becomes hideous, and they will suffer a paradox backlash if seen by a sleeper.

Backgrounds

Avatar: 5
Resources: 1 (cash, jewellery & designer clothes)
Talisman: 5 (いしの鏡/ishi-no-kagami)

A small stone cut to be flat on one side and polished to an unusual mirror sheen. Simply by glancing in the stone mirror, the owner can transfer all their lost HLs to their reflection. Additionally, if the owner takes damage that would take them below incapacitated, all extra damage is transferred to the mirror. If the mirror absorbs more than 7 HLs total it becomes clouded and unusable until completely purified. Purifying the mirror requires the owner to wash it in running water while meditating on impermanence (stamina + meditation difficulty 8, 7 if using a stream or river). At the end of each hour of meditation, the owner can spend 1 quintessence or tass to restore 1 HL to the mirror.
