'''Defining Moment:''' Yuri's life changed forever when she accompanied her friend Maki Shino, her little sister Yumi, and the Delta Kappa Phi sorority on a tour of Thailand on Spring Break. When a bad storm and a wrong turn landed them in Roanapur, by all accounts a wretched hive of scum and villainy, the two tried their best to survive. When they got separated from the main group, the two of them were attacked in an alleyway by a thousand-eyed horror out of nightmare that snatched Yuri up with its tentacles and tortured her with energy attacks and horrible poison needles, while also slapping her little sister down with more tentacles and blasting her with horrible beams. Though Yumi tried her best to save her sister, it was all for naught, as Yuri was devoured alive before Yumi's eyes. For four years, Yuri was slowly drained of her existence bit by bit, fighting hard to hold on to her memories of her little sister. When Yuri was finally released, she wandered the streets of Roanapur alone, and it wasn't long before she was set upon by some scumbags who were after some easy prey. She was rescued by BlackRoseWhisper and Longshot, two mahou shoujo who were friends of the Demon Hunter, who it turned out was her sister, who had spent four long years in the city hunting her devourer and killing any other demon that she came across. But when Honkukikaori intervened and unleashed his Invocation of Lies to save Nyarlathotep from Yumi's wrath, two versions of Yuri emerged. The first one, in Honkukikaori's World of Lies, was taken hostage by Honkukikaori himself, forcing Yumi to let her enemy go to save her life, and was awakened by Kanzoutsukamu as Steel Angel Guardian. The other Yuri, the real Yuri, was left alone in La Colonial, and was attacked by an Aspect of the Weaver of Lies after he was reverted by the Great Tiger for breaking the Pact with his Invocation. With no one else around to aid her, her life and soul were saved by none other than Yumi's enemy, who awakened her as a maou shoujo by the name of Soul Guardian Invoker so she could fight the Aspect. Upon learning that the real Yuri was in danger, Yumi defied the Invocation to offer her aid in her time of need, and Yuri drove off the Aspect and eventually helped the other mahou shoujo in the real world kill it. The two of them reunited in Honkukikaori's Web of Lies, where the two Yuris merged into one. With the powers of both versions of her, Yuri helped Yumi and the others destroy the Weaver and the Creeping Chaos once and for all.

'''Defining Moment:''' Yuri's life changed forever when she accompanied her friend Maki Shino, her little sister Yumi, and the Delta Kappa Phi sorority to Roanapur, by all accounts a wretched hive of scum and villainy, for spring break. While the Suenami sisters were quite prepared for the criminal elements of the city, neither of them were prepared for the demonic elements that also called this city home. The two of them were attacked in an alleyway by a thousand-eyed horror out of nightmare that snatched Yuri up with its tentacles and tortured her with energy attacks and horrible poison needles, while also slapping her little sister down with more tentacles and blasting her with horrible beams. Though Yumi tried her best to save her sister, it was all for naught, as Yuri was devoured alive before Yumi's eyes. For four years, Yuri was slowly drained of her existence bit by bit, fighting hard to hold on to her memories of her little sister. When Yuri was finally released, she wandered the streets of Roanapur alone, and it wasn't long before she was accosted by the scumbags that call the city home, who chased her around intent on doing bad things to her before being scared off by two ''mahou shoujo'' fresh from taking down a summoner. One of them knew her sister, and when the two of them were reunited at the Church of Violence, Yuri came face to face with a very changed Yumi, who had become a criminal freelancer, who was very, very angry and filled with hatred for the monster that did this to her, who had spent four years taking the battle to the demons as a ''mahou shoujo'' herself, and who was quite embarrassingly protective of her.
  
Renouncing the demonic power of Nyarlathotep after his death at Yumi's hands, Yuri has been reawakened as a mahou shoujo by the name of the Starlight Sentinel. She has a lot of power within her as a result of both the merging of her World of Lies counterpart with her and the existence that Nyarlathotep poured into her when Kanzoutsukamu forced him to remember who and what he was (which had the effect of restoring most of the memories she lost at the Creeper's hands), but Yuri still has much to learn about the city of Roanapur. Though she seeks to help Yumi in her efforts to protect the people of Roanapur, part of her feels that she does not belong here, and wants more than anything to go back home.
+
Yuri was awakened by Kanzoutsukamu after an encounter with Kukikbatokubetsu, the tsukaima form of the monster that devoured her all those years ago, and Honkukikaori, who threatened to kill her if Yumi didn't back off from trying to kill it. Having no wish to be a hostage, a victim and a pawn in other people's and creatures' games any longer, Yuri answered Yumi's call to become the protector she always wanted to be. As a newly minted ''mahou shoujo'', Yuri knows that though she may develop her own aims as time goes by, the best place to be right now is at Yumi's side.
  
 
'''Badass Type:''' Smartass (+2 to all mental rolls)
 
'''Badass Type:''' Smartass (+2 to all mental rolls)
  
'''Flavas:''' As someone who has been both a mahou and maou shoujo, Yuri retains the Flavas of both versions of her, but because of her reawakening, she can no longer use the more demonic powers she could use previously.
+
'''Flavas:'''
* '''Martial Artist''' - While Yuri primarily favors using the nine stars of her Starlight Crown to kick demon ass, she is still as deadly as ever with her sword, and can use what remains of her anatomy lessons to nasty effect.
+
* '''Martial Artist''' - In combat, Yuri hits hard, and she hits where it hurts. She can spend 1 BP to do 1 BP for every 2 points over the defender when in melee.
* '''That All You Got?''' - A Suenami is good at taking punishment, and Yuri has proven to be as tough as Yumi, able to withstand ugly demonic attacks that would fell lesser mahou shoujo.
+
* '''That All You Got?''' - A Suenami is good at taking punishment, and Yuri is no exception. She can burn 3 BP in order to negate all damage from a single instance.
* '''Everything and the Kitchen Sink:''' Yuri is horribly efficient at using just about anything imaginable as a weapon, and she thus never counts as unarmed. Even if she were to get stripped naked and tied up, well, she's got a handy rope to use! Once a fight, Yuri can use something improbable as a weapon as a Running on Fumes action in order to regain 1D3 BP.
 
* '''Doctor:''' Yuri has always wanted to help people and save lives, and retains just enough of her training as a medical student for her healing magic to have its best effect on those she heals, though this effort tends to drain her.
 
 
 
'''Weapons:'''
 
* ''Aetherius'' - A gleaming sword originally forged by her sister in the World of Lies and wielded by Steel Angel Guardian, Soul Guardian Invoker (briefly) and Steel Soul Guardian, Yuri remade the weapon using her own power upon her reawakening. Since its reforging in Yuri's hands, it has taken on the ability to negate all but the most powerful of spells and demonic powers used against her and her friends (see Negation below). (+2 Weapon)
 
* ''Starlight Crown'' - In addition to her sword, Yuri also wears a half-crown of blazing starlight with nine miniature stars that she can use to destroy her enemies and shield herself from demonic attack. (+2 Weapon)
 
'''Armor:''' ''Starlight Mantle'' - Yuri eschews the heavy armor she wore in her Guardian incarnations in favor of the sleek white jacket and blue dress she wore as Soul Guardian Invoker. Instead of the white roses in her hair, however, her head is adorned with a half crown of blazing starlight. It is from this crown that the miniature stars she uses in her offensive and defensive powers originate. She can also surround herself in protective magic meant to ward her against most mundane and magical attacks. (+1 Armor)
 
  
 
'''Powers:'''
 
'''Powers:'''
* '''Demon Sense''' - Yuri can always tell when a demon, ''maou shoujo'', possessed human or malevolent Familiar (Incubators, Accelerators, and Benedicites that awaken too many ''maou shoujo'') is drawing near through the scars on her back beginning to burn.
+
* '''Demon Sense''' - She can always tell when a demon, ''maou shoujo'', possessed human or malevolent Familiar (Incubators, Accelerators, and Benedicites that awaken too many ''maou shoujo'', as well as the Creeping Chaos despite its innocent demeanor) is drawing near through the scars on her back beginning to burn. This carries over into her normal form as well as her mahou form. Because of her connection to Yumi, she can also tell when Yumi is in danger from any of the above.
 
* '''Little Miss Fix-It''' - Yuri can use her magic to repair anything as long as she knows its general function and how it works. This does not extend to objects that have been irreversibly destroyed (i.e. disintegrated or vaporized with nothing to work with), nor can it be used to bring dead people back to life. It works a treat for, say, healing people and repairing broken bones though, but again, she needs to know the nature of the injury before she can heal it.

It works a treat for, say, healing people and repairing broken bones though, but again, she needs to know the nature of the injury before she can heal it.
* '''Starlight Rose Blossom''' - The nine stars of Yuri's Starlight Crown, upon killing enemies, disintegrate them into glowing white rose petals, which she can use either in a deadly swarm to tear enemies apart, or to heal anyone they touch or repair anything that is broken. The latter generally requires a Sorcery check.
+
* '''Exorcist''' - Yuri can use her magic to exorcise a demon, driving it out of someone it's possessing. This always takes a concerted effort on Yuri's part to drive out the demon, since many demons are Badasses in their own right, and can only be fully driven out upon losing all their BP. While she can use this power to free someone from possession, she cannot use it on anyone who has willingly or unwittingly accepted a demon into their hearts (in other words, she cannot cure ''maou shoujo'').
* '''Negation''' - Yuri can use ''Aetherius'' with her sorcery to break spells, undo harmful sorcery, and even negate demonic powers for brief periods. This ''always'' requires a Sorcery attempt to pull off, opposed by the higher of the demon or sorcerer's attack or defense.
+
* '''Barriers''' - In addition to using ''Silverlight'' to defend herself, Yuri can also create barriers to bleed the power of an enemy's attack against herself or others away or stop it cold.
* '''Psychometry''' - A holdover from her powers as Soul Guardian Invoker, Yuri can read the history of anything (or anyone) she touches by making a Sorcery check.
+
 
* '''Awakened Bond''' - As long as either Suenami has an item that once belonged to the other (Yuri's scarf for Yumi, Yumi's pendant for Yuri), and as long as either of them are in Awakened Form, the two of them can sense when the other is in supernatural danger, and can use sorcery to affect the other, even if the two of them are in completely different worlds.
+
'''Gear:'''
 +
* '''Weapons:''' ''Aetherius'' and ''Silverlight'', Yuri's sword and shield. ''Aetherius'' is the sword that was created for her by Yumi, and is imbued with the power of both of them. In addition to unleashing formidable melee attacks, it can also be used to heal people that it touches by laying the flat of the blade upon the wound and channeling her power into it. For those she cannot save, she can also use it to grant the victim a painless death, disintegrating his or her body into glowing white rose petals that blow away on the wind. ''Silverlight'', in addition to its defensive utility, can also be used to deliver powerful magically-charged bashing attacks, can unleash a flash of light that can temporarily blind those who look upon it (Silverlight Flare), and can unleash a devastating blast that vaporizes mooks and does nasty harm to demons it's used on (Silverlight Buster). That and it serves as a quite nice light source when energized.
 +
* '''Armor:''' Yuri in ''mahou shoujo'' form takes on the appearance of a beautiful young woman of her true age of 22 with flowing black hair adorned with white roses. She wears a silver-and-navy-blue armored dress inlaid with golden runes near the edges of the armor pieces. Adorning the breastplate of this armor is a large deep blue sapphire set in gold with a wing motif. In addition, she bears ''Silverlight'', a large round silver shield with golden runes inlaid around its edge, which Yuri uses for both attack and defense (see Weapons below). Unlike Yumi, Yuri's battle aura is a silver-white glow around her body, which she only lets out during those moments when she gets serious, and when she flies or unleashes particularly powerful attacks, a pair of glowing silver-white wings appear on her back, like those of an angel.

===Soul Guardian Invoker (Maou Shoujo)===
 +
'''Defining Moment:''' Yuri's life changed forever when she accompanied her friend Maki Shino, her little sister Yumi, and the Delta Kappa Phi sorority to Roanapur, by all accounts a wretched hive of scum and villainy, for spring break. While the Suenami sisters were quite prepared for the criminal elements of the city, neither of them were prepared for the demonic elements that also called this city home. The two of them were attacked in an alleyway by a thousand-eyed horror out of nightmare that snatched Yuri up with its tentacles and tortured her with energy attacks and horrible poison needles, while also slapping her little sister down with more tentacles and blasting her with horrible beams. Though Yumi tried her best to save her sister, it was all for naught, as Yuri was devoured alive before Yumi's eyes. For four years, Yuri was slowly drained of her existence bit by bit, fighting hard to hold on to her memories of her little sister. When Yuri was finally released, she wandered the streets of Roanapur alone, and it wasn't long before she was accosted by the scumbags that call the city home, who chased her around intent on doing bad things to her before being scared off by two mahou shoujo fresh from taking down a summoner.

But when Yumi, Megan and Julie disappeared, Yuri found herself alone in an arachnophobe's worst nightmare, being nearly killed by a demon taking on the form of a horrible swarm of spiders. When an unknown tsukaima appeared, she asked it for power, and the tsukaima accepted. As she transformed, something snapped within Yuri. Though she doesn't remember everything that happened to her before she and Yumi came to Roanapur, she ''does'' remember what she went through upon being released from Nyarlathotep's clutches. She doesn't know who saved her. She doesn't know the nature of the power that was awakened within her. All she knows is that she has had ''enough'' of being the victim.
 +
 
 +
'''Badass Type:''' Smartass (+2 to all mental rolls)
 +
 
 +
'''Flavas:''' In addition to her other flavas, Yuri has another two due to her strong connection to Kukibatokubetsu:
 +
 
 +
*'''"That All You Got?"''' Anyone who has survived four years in an Awakened Demon's gullet is tough as nails, regardless of her demeanor. Yuri can burn 3 BP to negate a single instance of damage.
 +
*'''Everything and the Kitchen Sink:''' Yuri is horribly efficient at using just about anything imaginable as a weapon, and she thus never counts as unarmed. Even if she were to get stripped naked and tied up, well, she's got a handy rope to use! Once a fight, Yuri can use something improbable as a weapon as a Running on Fumes action in order to regain 1D3 BP.
 +
*'''"To the Pain!"''' If your defense roll and the attack roll are both odd or even (before bonuses), the attacker takes 1 BP of damage.
 +
*'''"You're Worthless and Weak!"''' Spend 1 BP when you make an attack. If you hit, instead of taking damage, the target loses access to one Flava of your choice for this scene. They can take a 3 BP Setback to reverse this.
 +
 
 +
'''Powers:''' Yuri's not developed many powers, but the ones she does have are:
 +
 
 +
* '''Soulsight:''' Yuri can see into someone's soul much like Kitty and Yumi can.
 +
* '''Exorcism:''' Yuri can drive a demon out of someone it's possessing, though this always requires a concerted effort.
 +
* '''Healing:''' Yuri can heal even the most grievous of wounds, but she cannot bring back the dead.
 +
* '''Power Reflection:''' Yuri can turn the power of her enemies against them, by absorbing an attack with her energy shields and unleashing the power of the original attack against her enemy.
 +
 
 +
'''Gear:'''
 +
* '''Weapon:''' Yuri wears a set of runed silver gauntlets on both hands, which glow a bright blue when she channels her power. Not only can they be used for powerful punches, but she can also conjure energy weapons like swords and daggers with them for melee and ranged combat. In addition, they can also be used to unleash powerful energy blasts. (+1 Weapon)
 +
* '''Armor:''' In ''maou shoujo'' form, Yuri wears a navy blue jumper dress with black sleeves, black tights and brown riding boots. She wears twin runed silver gauntlets which she uses both in melee and as a focus for powerful energy blasts, and which glow a bright blue when she channels her power. Over the dress, she wears a white-and-gold jacket similar in many ways to the black leather jacket that Yumi wears in her normal form. Like her Steel Angel Guardian incarnation, her hair becomes a bit more flowing, and she takes on the appearance of her true age of 22. In addition to her armor, she can also conjure energy shields to protect her from attacks much like her sister can, but she doesn't have Yumi's mastery of Witchsight or dimensional shifting. (+2 Armor)
