Homura Amanohokosaka

""'Death' is coming, Kagura.""

Homura Amanohokosaka (ホムラ＝アマノホコサカ Homura=Amanohokosaka) is the current Imperator Librarius of the Novus Orbis Librarium, and the child of a previous Imperator, Tenjo Amanohokosaka.

Homura first debuted as an NPC in BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma.

Appearance
Homura is a young effeminate, yet androgynous human. He has knee-long brown hair, amber eyes, and a pale complexion; on Homura's forehead, there is a small red mark. He wears a highly stylised orange and white sokutai that stops high up on his thighs with small golden ornaments hanging at the rims, and is tied to his waist with a white bow; a red scarf is tied around his collar. A tall black hat sits upon Homura's head that has intricate golden details near its base, and he wears orange platforms over long white socks. According to his mother, Homura inherited his father's hair colour.

During his reign as Imperator, Homura wears a deep purple version of his usual sokutai over numerous layers of red, white, and green kimonos. Instead of his large hat, he wears a large, golden, circular headpiece that faces forward, and instead of his orange platforms, Homura wears red ones.

Personality
Regal and graceful - Homura does not speak much within the series, often keeping quiet whenever present, but isn't afraid to speak his mind, such as defying the wishes of Kagura Mutsuki on at least more than one occasion. Homura is very polite and understanding, having shown a great deal of gratitude to Bang Shishigami for leading the Ikaruga people in his absence, but is also humble, asking that those around him don't fret over his safety. Homura is very close to Kagura, and is fond of Bang.
