Back again, this time with a new IL OC!

Been tossing around here and there the "what if" of a sequel of sorts, so naturally that means some new faces running around. Masami is one of those faces.

I'll probably talk about her more some other day (once I iron things out a bit more), but important thing to know is she's mute (primarily communicates through painting cryptic hints, just like her mentor), is pretty dang young by Leaguer standards, and Juurota took her under his wing.

He swears he didn't adopt her and he's not a dad, just is teaching her the way of the blade. And providing shelter and fuel and enrichment and also taught her how to communicate in a way that worked for her and gave her a name.

#IL OC #I think that's what I'll tag that for now #Btw if some of the stuff looks weird about these 'next gen' leaguers I'm taking design cues from tech from the 00's #Since IL is like. The Future but a very early 90's future so it makes sense a sequel would still fall under that retro futurism flair #In particular her mask takes cue from those robo-chi toys. It's pretty strong despite how decorative it looks #The ears on the mask also acts as a second set of audials to pick up more sounds if needed #Her armor also takes notes from hifus which are padded vests commonly worn by kids at sichi go san #To really drive home the point she's REALLY young.#Some twisted fuck really built a toddler to train her more effectively at killing once she's fully upgraded for the Kendo Leauge #Even in a sequel after a happily ever after there's still some pretty effed stuff #But it's all good she has a mentor in dad-nial
