Appearance
Kimira stands almost as tall as your average male and weighs in at just over petite, giving her a slim but curvy figure mostly hidden under the folds of her shihakusho; although a tall and modestly-built woman, she isn‘t that imposing compared to most men. She bears balanced white skin, green eyes, and long brunette hair. What is noticeable, other than her C-sized bosom, is that her hands are graceful and devoid of flaws, leaving her patients with a sense of ease when she goes about healing. Even in times of surgery, her hands are flawless in form and steadiness.
Personality
Kimira is a venerable woman that is not known for sudden actions or repentant thoughts, having a demeanor that would hint at her being much older than she appears to be. Her actions are usually well-planned and carried out just as good, usually calm & caring but firm where she needs to be. Although her emotions have to be let loose every once in a while from being repressed most of the time, Kimira is known to keep a level-head and an intelligent view for all those in her immediate vicinity.
With her womanly appeal and her somewhat primal personality, having repressed her strong desires she carried when she lived in the Rukongai, Kimira is a woman of many odd talents. First off, she plays the piano with expert skill; no one knows where she learned it, but she can play pieces from Beethoven, Chopin, and Mozart with her eyes closed, hinting that she has incredible skill with her hands. Consequently, she’s also very capable in dance, having eloquent movements and a manner of grace that no human could hope to match. She dances in many different styles, having an eye and ear for human arts & entertainment. In light of these talents, she’s also a capable warrior and a force to be reckoned with.
One notable flaw Kimira struggles with is that she erratically experiences flashbacks of a life she has no memory of, one that often gives her headaches and causes her to black out on occasion since they get so bad. What troubles her is that she doesn't know the cause and she's the one who's supposed to be the doctor. She's never had this happen during a time of duty & concentration, but she never counts on her luck to stay as strong as it's been so far...
History
Kimira can’t remember anything before her arrival to Soul Society, the only thing she could feel or remember was being awfully hungry. Everyone around her could feel this change in her right off the bat, and even as a grown woman she was immediately noticed by a patrolling shinigami for her incredible self-reliance and her capacity to help others using her primal reiatsu abilities, mainly in the form of a reiatsu light show. The shinigami wasted no time inducting her into the Shinigami Academy, but she was an outlier to all the girls that were currently in her class, both in appearance and in raw ability.
During her course in the shinigami academy, Kimira found that she had an exceptional aptitude for Hakuda and Kidō abilities. However, she had a sub-standard ability in Zanjutsu and a questionable skill in Hakuda, forcing her to be innovative when it came to her weaknesses. Even though she passed her classes with marginal success, Kimira showed her true colors when she tended to the wounds of some of her sparring partners, fixing them up as good as new if not better. This was her trump card that landed her an internship under 4th Division Captain Orinoko himself, slipping by the graduation process.
Following her internship in the 4th division that took her out of the Shinigami Academy, Kimira was formally given training towards the specialist title, and even though she has great potential, she is still a learner that knows more in her craft than any average shinigami. Although she’s never seen any active combat yet, she hopes to be of use in the near future to the squads on active duty. Who knows? She may yet atone for her past if anyone bothered to know it…
Combat
Strengths
- Unarmed Combat: Dr. Kimira shows an aptitude in her Hakuda skills, being swift & fluid in her grappling maneuvers as well as her disarming techniques.
- Healing/Defensive Kidō: Her skill in using passive & defensive Kidō techniques are worthy of mention to many. However, Dr. Kimira’s true skill lies in her ability to heal.
- Surgical Techniques: Dr. Kimira’s skill with surgical instruments, & precision is nearly unmatched under her concentration in comparison to others in her division or her level.
- Compounds: Although she's not as good as a 12th shinigami, Kimira has an excellent understanding of various biological/chemical/drug-like compounds and how to apply them in any given situation.
Weaknesses
- Zanjutsu: Dr. Kimira is not known for her ability to wield a blade; she’d be much better with a scalpel than a sword.
- Dealing Damage: Since Dr. Kimira’s profession centers around helping people, she hesitates to actually do damage to anyone, even her enemies. The best she can hope to do is disable someone enough for someone else to finish them off.
- Dueling: Dr. Kimira will hesitate to engage anyone in one-on-one combat, preferring to deter those violent tendencies before they get out of hand.
- Killer Memories: Whenever Dr. Kimira's memories try to return, she blacks out and wakes up with a killer headache. She doesn't know why though, and the sporadic happenings constantly gives her trouble.
