Onyx Blossom

Born in Chiaroscuro. Stunningly beautiful zenith caste solar. Exalted in city, brought to Tri-Kahn, serving him as a concubine and spy ever since. Dances at an upscale club off of the water, with quite a following (thanks to Fragrant Petal Fascination Kata). Drafted by Flaxen Catacomb and Hammer in the Woods to help them control the Tri-Kahn.

Will attempt to avoid combat, if possible. Like most martial artists Blossom has a long ramp-up time. In combat, will activate the following in order: Flow Like Blood, Distracting Banter Method, Spirit Strengthens the Skin, Durability of Oak, Dreaming Pearl Courtesan Form. Will usually spend most actions defensively, using Seven Shadow Evasion against really dangerous opponents. If outnumbered or wanting to be non-lethal, will use parries and Sash Grapple. If defenses work, may use combo to go for blood.
