Mukuro: Appearance

Mukuro is a beautiful young girl with a voluptuous figure, possessing a bust

considered disproportionately large for her physical age. She has golden eyes
matched with flowing blonde hair longer than her own body. She ties her hair
together in an Odango hairstyle, and wears ribbons around the buns. To compromise
with Shido's concerns about its length, Mukuro lets him tie her hair into a long
braid, which she tied around her neck like a scarf. She later requested that Shido
trim her hair after her sealing, and she would further shorten it herself about a
year later after deciding to move on from her adoptive family.

In her Spirit form, she wears a lilac and white Astral Dress that resembles a
Qipao. The ends of her skirt, which are adorned with constellation patterns, are
divided at the edge. Dark blue and purple hair extensions which resemble bunny ears
are attached to her hair buns. Additionally, she wears transparent purple gloves
that are also engraved with constellation patterns. Lastly, she wears high heel
shoes that are attached to metallic greaves. These greaves resemble the leg armor
used by medieval knights. When using <Shifuru>, her Astral Dress gains a more
savage appearance, including tassels added onto her hair buns.

Personality: As a result of sealing away her emotions using <Michael>, Mukuro bears
an icy cold, robot-like, demeanor. She claims to be okay with living all alone in
outer space and wishes to be on her own. She has shown her willingness of issuing
threats and utilizing violence to make sure no one disturbs her solitude. However,
the fact that she had told Shido she sealed away her emotions implies that deep
down, she wants him to save her from her loneliness.

After having her emotions unlocked, Mukuro regained her true personality, which in
contrast to her sealed one, is very emotional. Due to growing up as an orphan,
Mukuro fears to be alone again and desperately wants to remain attached to those
who she believes loves her. Even after going as far as to seal the other Spirits'
memories of him, Shido describes her intentions as being motivated by pure love and
innocence rather than any true ill will.

Due to her past with her older sister braiding her hair while stargazing, Mukuro
enjoys viewing the stars and is very attached to her long hair, becoming furious
when Inverse Tohka cut it.

In terms of speech, Mukuro speaks in an overly archaic style. She often speaks in a
third person perspective by referring to herself as "Muku" (むく). She often utters
"mun" (むん) or "fumun" (ふむん) while thinking.

History

Background
Mukuro once was a lonely child that grew up with no family. In her solitude, she
concluded that people blessed with a family were special, and she could not be
considered special. However, one day, she was adopted by a couple who wanted a
child. They, along with an older sister, would soon become a family to her. For a
while, she lived in bliss under the warmth of a family. Her older sister Asahi
would always compliment her hair while styling it, and they often went stargazing
together as she recited the lore of each constellation to her. However, one day
while visiting Tengu Tower, Asahi brought along a friend, who commented that Mukuro
needs to cut her hair. Hurt by how her sister agreed with the suggestion, despite
always praising her golden hair in the past, she concluded that Asahi had loved her
friend more than her.

As she panicked over that conclusion, <Phantom> appeared before her and gave her a
Sephira Crystal containing <Michael>. With this new found power, she locked the
memories of every acquaintance of her family so that they would love only her.
However, her family angrily rebuked her in return, terrified at how she suddenly
obtained an unfathomable power. Unable to handle learning and losing the warmth of
a family, she then sealed their memories of her before sealing her own memories and
heart and departing for space. This action caused her heart to become an
emotionless machine that was fine with living in outer space, not wanting to be
disturbed by anyone.
