Yuki Himezuru

Yuki Himezuru (姫鶴由貴) is a supporting character in XBlaze Code: Embryo and XBlaze Lost: Memories. She is a doctor who adopted Hinata Himezuru as her younger sister and took in Touya Kagari.

Appearance
Yuki is curvaceous woman who has long copper-colored hair that is usually tied into a ponytail; she has brown eyes and fair skin. Yuki's usual attire consists of a mango-colored shirt that has no collar and extends to her thighs. She wears a cream coat, blue capri jeans, and black high heels. Her bra straps resemble white belts. At work, Yuki's attire is essentially the same, except she wears a black bra and a white coat instead.

When swimming, Yuki wears a two-piece bikini, both pieces mango-colored. The top piece has two strings to hold itself and a second black layer underneath the outer mango one. Over her bottoms is a brown sash with a red floral design.

Personality
Despite the tragedy she has had to endure at Ripper's hands, Yuki displays an eccentric and sunny demeanor to everyone she meets - this includes making jokes, being outwardly positive, and overtly showing her affection to Hinata and Touya. Her seemingly childish manner belies a deep wisdom and emotional maturity that she uses to guide Touya and his friends when they are lost or experiencing turmoil. Yuki is also much more perceptive than she lets on, and is quick to pick up on the thoughts and feelings of others.

Yuki's kindness led her to adopt both Hinata and Touya despite her busy schedule as a doctor and young age. She is nearly always working and seldom comes home to spend time with her family thanks to her long shifts. Yuki has complete trust in Kazuto Kotetsu, who was a family friend in her life before Ripper's appearance.

In her spare time, Yuki likes reading manga, playing games, or driving. She hates stressing over small details in conversation.

Powers and Abilities
Physically, Yuki has no abnormal powers or abilities. She is, however, a gifted doctor who is well versed in information concerning Drive-Unions. She is confident and skilled enough in her profession to mentor both Hinata and Akira Kamewari in medicine while still being committed to her full-time job.
