She was determined to raise enough money to live for herself, always reminding herself that future her would be thankful.

General Appearance
She had a lean and muscular build, stood at 6'3. Her forehead would be covered in a large acidic scar along with 2 deep carvings. One was a noticeable ‘X’ on her left shoulder, and it would seem the familiar Akihito Pin logo would be across her back, carved in poorly and harshly.The rest of her body would be covered in what appeared to be slash- like scars, as well as a small scar running on a slight diagonal on her right cheek. For tattoos, she had a full sleeve of a Irezumi sleeve on her right arm, a full thigh of rose petals connecting one another, a single black band on her bicep and a dagger on her right calf that would be matching with her twin brother, Kei. Her face seemed to rarely move or falter from a blank and unreadable expression, she spoke with a light Irish accent that was rather deep for a woman. It was a soothing voice. She smelled like coconut and Lavender. she would be missing her left pinkie, the scar on the remaining stub looking fully healed and rather old looking.
Personality:
"I have been told I care too much. I would describe myself as a work first person, blunt and. . .well I'm not sure what else."
Skylar is a woman of very many layers. Predominantly to most she is a well rounded, level headed and blunt woman of a serious nature. She often pushes herself off as a stern, cold and overall emotionless.To those who know her more than that, she is extremely hard working, never seeming to catch a break. She has a very strong work attitude and her lack of pop culture knowledge often leads her being the jokester of a group, despite it not being her intention. To close friends and family she is incredibly strong minded and caring, always looking out for anyone and everyone around her no matter what side they are on. She has a big soft spot for animals and young children. Though she very very rarely smiles, she always does her best in repaying those who help her out. Though she does her best to help, Skylar's line of work and inability to not follow orders often gets in the way of her social life, creating a barrier for her mentally that stops the opportunity to get close with people. She despises the wealthy, often hiding her own wealth so to not categorize among-st them.
Diseases/Illness:
PTSD, Depressive Mania, Insomnia.
PTSD:
This was the first illness to ever develop at just a very young age. Due to the harsh environments of growing up, Skylar quickly developed a lack of trust and love in other's, any feeling of attachment just simply never being there. Due to the events that took place when she was 9, Skylar developed a twitch in her wrist and cold sweats at the mention of fire or anything that resembles a fire-axe. Even more so, she despises Roses of any kind, not even baring to look at them.
Of course this is just simply the beginning of her trauma, as later down the line much more vivid hallucinations of drowning, the event's of the gang war, along with the death of a close friend constantly playing out through her mind when stressed or in-front of a reflective surface. She has been prescribed medicine [Setraline] And takes them regularly.
≪•◦ ❈ ◦•≫
Depressive Mania:
With the consistent battle of coping with all her trauma and wrong doing's, Skylar often finds herself in low moods; Constantly feeling not good enough or a 'failure' is a common emotion which results in aggressive outbursts at random points. Along with this, she has a nasty habit of self-punishment. A habit she developed when she was just a child from her parents. When Ever the young woman would do something out of line, Her parents would punish her by removing meal time privileges or even worse, force her to none stop train with the other members of the mafia in combat until she was nothing but bruises and pulp. Now, as an adult skylar often punishes herself by not eating, or overworking herself to an absurd level.
≪•◦ ❈ ◦•≫
Insomnia:
A possible side-effect of her PTSD, Skylar very rarely can get to sleep. Even when she does, the constant night terrors often leave her waking up every 30 minutes to an hour, causing extreme frustration. She more time's then not simply refuses to sleep, powering through the nights by upping her work load to keep herself busy. When she does sleep, she takes 5 to 10 minute power naps through out the day, though it barely helps.

Character Voice:
"A low, soothing Irish accent. Occasionally she would let slip the odd Chinese or Korean accent."
(Voice actor; Moira from Overwatch but more monotone)
Equipment:
A pare of golden aviators sit ontop of her head, showing off the 'TSU' heirloom brightly. In her pockets would be her phone, wallet and medication. Skylar often carried a briefcase of sorts around. In it would be a trusty bottle of liqueur, typically whiskey. A pair of reading glasses and a prescription paper. Also to note, always strapped to skylar's body would be a small strap under her clothing, slotting a knife in it for safe keeping. The strap was simply a Velcro belt that hugged around her waist or thigh, a small pocket clipped on for her knife to sit.
Clothes:

Quirks:
A noticeable quirk of Skylar's would be her consistent 'fed up' expression she wears pridefully. Her nervous tick of scrunching her nose, the folding her arms habit and many more is just what makes her unique. Due to a symptom of her trauma, Skylar's right wrist often gets a noticeable twitch it as her mind remembers the feeling of dragging a Fire-axe through her Father's neck. [gruesome ikr]

Habit's:
Skylar, as mentioned previously is a woman of many deep layers. So let's take an insight to her habit's she picked up from childhood and such!
[1]
Skylar hate's heat.
Though this one may seem rather obvious, Skylar actually never enjoyed the warm seasons before the event's of her mother and sister's death. She has always described anything warm as suffocating and tends to claw at her skin as if it wasn't her own. Maybe this is a side affect of being raised in Ireland, and sleeping in a damp cold basement floor. But either way, both with food, drink and weather; Heat is a no go zone for Skylar.
[2]
Odd sleep.
Skylar's sleeping conditions were far from safe. Her father, Patrick Rose would force the younger three into a small locked up closet deep down in the moldy, rat ridden and damp basement. Between the three they had a single ragged blanket, along with two pillows which they had cleverly scrunched up in a manner then allowed them to curl up closer to use at once. Most nights, the three would take turns in sleeping as if they were young soldiers on a battlefield. Though this isn't the case today, skylar still naturally hugs her body tightly as if still freezing cold. How sad.
[3]
Eating habit's
A far less morbid habit of Skylar's would be her eating habit, or rather lack of. Skylar has never been a big eater, But when in company of others, Skylar will not touch a single item of food until she is either told to, or they eat first. This of course becomes rather entertaining when with her twin brother, Kei as he is the exact same. Of course, this is just one of the many things the twins were drilled into knowing at a young age.
Backstory:
Skylar Tachibana Rose was born on July 14th, along with her other two siblings. She had a brother, Kei Rose Tachibana and her sister, Aoife Tachibana Rose. They lived in a small county town in Ireland, named Dundalk, In their family's home brewery as it was known to the public. But there were many things that seemed off about the place. Many of the public residences nearby would often claim to hear loud screams, often a trail of red leading to the door that would be gone by the next morning.. She was born to a difficult life, to parents who neglected, and eventually abused the kids. The mother, Aoki Tachibana, was a half-Japanese half-Russian woman, and the father, Patrick Rose, an Irish man. Her father was a leader of an Irish Mafia, known as “The Rose.” The kids would have to stick together and learn from one another. Skylar, being the oldest of the siblings, was forced to learn a lot of the more violent side of the family's true works. From the age of 6, she was fully trained in knife throwing. By the time her brother Kei turned 10, he had passed his home-schooling on business orders. Her sister Aoife . . .she was the most neglected. Her family saw no use for her and it was a rare opportunity that the triplets got to see one another. As they grew older, they would constantly hear deals from her father. Many of these under-the-table deals were heard by Skylar, who then took the knowledge of them and self taught herself the Gaelic language. This all changed when she turned 13. Her father discovered his wife was apart of a Russian mafia, a spy, who was trying to take down “The Rose.'' In his fit of rage, he killed one of the triplets, Skylar’s sister, by decapitating her with the family Fire-Axe.
Skylar and her brother had just come down to the office after hearing screams from her mother just prior. Once they burst through the door, two of her father’s henchmen grabbed them, tying them to chairs, and had the members of his mafia slice their bodies repeatedly with the same Fire- Axe that was used for her sister's neck, just lifelessly lying in front of them. Once the slashing had paused, the same two men brought over metal clamps, placing them on each of the two sibling's eyes. Her mother, Aoki had been pretty badly beaten up and was struggling to stand up on her own. You see, to the people who did know the real truth about the rose’s, all knew who was killed or dealt by them. Their trademark was stamping a hot iron onto the skin of their victims, the shape of a rose. So in good old fashioned Rose style, her father grabbed the gasoline and began to pour it over Aoki, setting her alight. The kids were forced to watch this happen, having their eyes clamped open. The slashings continued. The Fire-Axe never dug into their skin deep enough, just leaving scattered scars across their bodies. Skylar took the opportunity, kicking back with force on her chair, having one of the Fire-Axe cut the rope that bound her. She took the Fire-axe and freed her brother, but at this moment, her father splashed acid at her, scarring her face horribly.
She would run the Fire-axe through him, ending his miserable life, and freeing the family from the abuse. Skylar would flee to Korea, while her brother went to Russia. After moving to Korea, she would get a personal trainer, who taught her how to fight. More specifically, jiu-jitsu and kickboxing. She would also learn how to speak Korean from this man, who she grew close to. It would take her 4 years of constant relearning how to speak, from reading, writing, listening, and learning but eventually she grasped the language, even gaining the odd compliment from the natives. Not a day went by during the time she spent in Korea where she didnt think about her brother. He was the only one she had left. But he was out in Russia, training with the natives there just as she had been doing. Eventually, Skylar left Korea after her trainer passed away of illness, and took herself to the streets of Japan. An old traveler had asked in broken English if she spoke Japanese. She would admit, it was very little, but with it in mind he told her to head to Karakura. A strange cryptic message as she began to walk away. . .
“I hope you do more good than damage.”
{only a small rough version of the original backstory. The og one is over 10k words . . .}
More about her childhood:
Skylar and Kei's bedroom was cruel. Deep under ground in the basement of the brewery/family home was a bricked off section where laid out torn blankets and a pillow propped up by rocks displayed on the damp and rustic floor. The room was completely jet black with blue mold crusted into the corners. Skylar's sister, Aoife was always falling ill due to the living conditions. When Skylar and Kei split ways to different parts of the world, Skylar met a blacksmith up in the mountains, the same man who taught her almost everything she knew from emotional control, her current day fight style and craftsmanship. Skylar grew a strong passion for designing and creating her own weapons, though much preferred fighting by hand. She loved the whole process, from molding, wiring, polishing and much more.
Kei and Skylar's dynamic is rather a strange one. The two have grown so comfortable around one another that its hard to decipher anything with them. They both know of each-others capabilities, downsides, flaws etc. It almost seems like they have a 6th sense when it came to understanding the deeper meaning behind their words or actions.
Quotes:
