Laura Reimei

Laura Reimei is a young woman who transferred to Laie University for her final year before her Bachalor's degree and plans to go on into the field of robotics. She often is seen listening to music, especially as she draws. She builds small robots in her spare time with her most recent project being a small flying robot.

Currently, she works part time as a receptionist in the campus gym while training under Daidara for swordsmanship in her spare time. She is also labled by Nuevo Mundo as a "Knight" for the current Investigation Team.

Appearance
Laura is fairly tall for a girl, coming in at 5' 11" with medium blonde hair just past her shoulders. Laura prefers to dess casually and typical is seen sporting a t-shirt and jean capris. She usually has a large messenger bag over her shoulder that has a large variety of buttons and pins on the front.

Personality
Laura has a laid back/go with the flow personality. She is often seen as quiet or shy because she doesn’t speak up much and would rather observe and not cause any problems for others by voicing her opinion and possibly aggitating or upsetting the group she is in. Laura loves to help others, even if it means she has to go out of her way to do so, which sometimes causes her more harm then good.

History
Laura's father, Ethan Mcleon is a successful business man and her brother, Nickolas ("Nick"), follows in his footsteps. She harbors a deep hatred for her father as her father considers her an "accident" and treats her like she doesn't exist. Nick, however, wants to reestablish a line of contact with his sister as he realized the mistake he made in following his dad to the letter, including how he treated Laura. Laura's mother, Melinda, passed away three years ago, due to a combination of her Immunodeficiency and various severe infections. She died about two months after Laura was involved in a vehicle accident that required extensive orthopedic reconstruction.



Due to complications during the reconstructive surgery, Laura's heart began to fail repeatedly during the next few weeks. Ethan decided to cut Laura off and let Laura die in the hospital, but Melinda wouldn't let that happen. Melinda used the money set aside for her own medical bills to provide for her beloved daughter. After a life saving heart transplant two weeks later, Laura found out that her heart donor was her own mother, who passed away only hours earlier.



Laura spent the entirety of her would be freshman year of college recovering and regaining her strength. She made a point to get fit and live a healthy lifestyle, determined to never be that physically weak again. Then she set her sights on college, namely George Mason University located in Fairfax, Virginia. Laura stuck around for the first three years of college before deciding to go to Liae University, an opportunity that was too good to pass up. It was closer to where she wanted to work (Japan), it was a great program, and -most importantly- it was far away from the ever increasing toxicity at "home". Away from the "father" who made the mistake in "cutting her off" and, in Laura's mind, killing her mother in the process. He had the means and the money, but he chose to not save the supposed "love of his life". An act Laura would never forgive and the one and only grudge she holds onto to this day.



Recently, while the Investigation Team was at Resurgam First Care to be tested for the Atma Virus, Laura encountered her father while he was on a business trip with Nuevo Mundo's "Queen". The bitterness and hatred she felt for him, along with the events that occurred there, threw her in a rage. She tried to kill her father with her persona as she didn't have any other means to do so (the team's weapons were being held in the hospital's security room). Instead of summoning Ginchyo, she summoned her Dark Persona: Mistuhide Akechi. However, Nick was able to stop her as he stood between her and their father and talked sense back into her.

Persona and Abilities
Ginchiyo-hime is Laura's Persona, which takes on a roboticised form due to Laura's love for robotics. Being a sword-fighter herself, Ginchiyo wields a large lighning-shaped longsword and can command lighting to surround her and her allies as a protective sheild as well as use it to attack Shadows.



Laura's Dark Persona is Mitsuhide Akechi. He wields dual scythes and has a love for killing. He commands black lightning to deal with those below him, saving his scythes for more worthy opponents.
