don't ask-

Plop plop

So, don't let my fish brain work, ahaha

Art by my dear friend and artist Neon Naga, thank you very much for drawing my girl!

Her name is Vales, like my nickname among my close friends, and her appearance was based on mine, except that she doesn't have the tattoo on her body that I have. Vales is a half-breed, the offspring of a human woman and a demon father, who in my AU was once the Upper Five, but more on him in a bit.

Vales is not exactly a traditional Japanese name, yes, she has northern origins, her family once came to Japan, looking for a new life. Unfortunately, the relationship with her mother did not work out well, and a few years before coming of age, Vales runs away from her, leaving her family to either die in any ditch or find hope and her place. By chance, during her short wandering in one of the inns in the mountains, she learns about her hidden part when the place is attacked by a demon. She survives, defeating the demon, but this new side of her clearly scares her.

However, as a half-breed, she is not susceptible to the same damage from the sun as normal demons, but she can still feel unwell. She does not need to feed on human flesh to live, at least she believes so, for her, eating a human is an unforgivable act. She is quickly found out by the Corps, and when she appears before Ubuyashiki, she is offered to become a slayer. After all, there really is a reason for this, is it better than having her in their ranks of demons and her potential being revealed in a different direction?

Vales is trained by Urokodaki-san, since she is closest to the Breath of Water, but you can tell by her. Her father was a demon who used demon blood magic, bonding himself with water, and actually looked like a sea oni. She inherited some of his traits, and her haori, mask, and nichirin katana perfectly reflect her connection to water.

As for her personality, gods, that poor girl. She's trying not to let down her new adopted family in the Corps, and is slowly learning to open up to other people, which is difficult, especially considering she's the offspring of a demon. But she'll get along great with Nezuko, believe me. She had a younger sister before she ran away, and Komado's sister reminds her of her, which makes her heart warm.

Well, thanks for listening to my nonsense out of my head about my girl!
