Anima

Breathe water, move freely in the water, and even run across water like solid earth, and +1 DV on the turn of activation, refreshable for 1 mote thereafter.

Limit Break

On Limit Break, Keiku's watery nature takes the fore and she attempts to flow out of the current situation and into somewhere more comfortable and endowed with immediate pleasure.

Equipment

Dancing Snake is a weapon with a mind of its own, albeit a mind dedicated from protecting its wielder from trouble while making them look good. It's possibly not the best weapon for actually killing somebody, but it practically moves itself to parry incoming blows. The disturbingly life-like snake head and rattling tail just add to the effect.

Personality

Keiku is a ruthlessly pragmatic sort, mostly noted for her cynical smile and consciencious work-avoidance. She'll quite happily use mortals and Terrestrials alike, not particularly caring about either. She believes that a mortal can be just as dangerous as an Exalt, and just as handy in the right situation. As for the Celestials, she bears them no particular ill-feeling, but obviously they're extremely powerful and worth being very cautious around. Being a slave is, she's sure, a temporary and minor setback and inconvenience for her, to which she should respond in the same way as any challenge - by avoiding hard work as much as possible and keeping an eye out for the exits.

Appearance

Keiku is short, too thin, and generally unimpressive. Her cropped black hair speaks of the practicalities of the streets, but her uncalloused hands and milky skin tell a different story, that of a previous life of luxury. Her eyes are a kind of watery grey-brown and generally squinting irritably at something.
