Quotes:
(Tenmyo'in to a Zelvonian General) "Do you believe that simply luring me to an area where I can't use my powers means you won ? What astounding foolishness. Why, precisely, do you think I have ruled over the Absu System for over a thousand years ? Because no one stronger than me has been born on any of these worlds in all that time"
(Qilin to Valeria) "They say Jō-Sama cannot be killed. On land, sea, and air, among all living things, she is known as the 'strongest creature'".
"Fire is change given form, power at its most primal. That is where the true strength of dragons lie, and what is the Sun if not the mother of all flames ?"
Powers:
-> Asian Dragon physiology, her beastkin form is a gigantic serpentine dragon
- Atmospheric Adaptation, able to acclimatise to thin atmospheres or different air compositions
- Semi-Immortality, human form remains youthful at over 1000 years of age
-Dermal Armor/Scale Manifestation, able to grow and retract scales on parts of her human form to protect from harm
-Elemental Breath, dragon form's breath weapon, can range from flames to streams of plasma and radiation to focused jets. Smaller scale variants usable in human form
-> Heat Generation/Limited Manipulation
- Internal Generation, can create immense amounts of heat from her core and radiate it outwards, either directed or AoE
- External Generation, requires greater concentration and effort for much lesser results, but technically able to heat up most materials to the point of combustion from a far without direct transfer such as via projectiles
- Temporary Contraction/Delayed Deflagration, a subset of techniques with small initial radius that culminate with large explosions
-> Supernatural Condition
- Super Durability, even human form skin is highly resistant to injury, dragon scale are nigh-indestructible

- Super Strength, strong enough to shatter a cliff face by backhanding someone into it from a fair ways away
-Super Speed, dodges natural lightning as part of her equivalent of Tai Chi
- Super Senses, can see and sense heat sources, on top of considerably superior normal senses compared to most other beastkin
-Super Recovery, heals from injuries at an accelerated rate, though not enough to be useful within a non-extended battle
-> Flight, dragon form is capable of limited wingless flight via a combination of surfing hot drafts created by her power and elegant gliding
>Natural Weaponry

-Bite
-Prehensile and Whipping Tail

Paraphernalia: As a millennium old sovereign, owns a vast collection of weapons, but most notable ones include:
-> Kikoku (Ogre Wail) and Shigure (Autumn Rain), the swords she used as an Imperial Scout
-> Zanhi (Slaying Sun), a golden bladed tachi
-> Huginn & Muninn (Thought & Memory), mix of straight european sword and thick sabers

-> Kebano-O Hoshitama (Fluffy Tail Starball), peace gift from Genso Aoi, named after magical pearls said to hold kitsune souls
-> Kubikiri Orochi (Great Beheading Serpent), a bisento and her 3rd main weapon
The Six Emperors: strong underlings who ostensibly rule the various worlds of the Absu System, also typically put in charge of crucial tasks or guarding sacred locations
-> Seiryu/Qīnglóng (Wood: able to make trees/wooden plants grow quickly and form them as he wishes, as well as telekinetically manipulating wooden objects. Also has limited access to the Tenmei System granting him some amount of control over the wind)
-> Suzaku/Zhūquè (formerly Wara Uriel/Shogun Kagutsuchi) (Fire: weapons and armor channel heat, armor is insulated against extreme heat, the heat channels heat up to ~6000 kelvin, the swords can be overclocked to nearly double that)
-> Byakko/Báihǔ(Bai Min) (Metal: has remote access to virtually all systems in the Absu Sector, as well as various personal bleeding-edge tech, such as a power sword, multi-layered cloaking, sound and light area void generators and miniature electromagnetic & gravity field devices)
-> Genbu/Xuánwǔ(actually 2 people, a Tortoise "Xuanwu" and a Snake *Genbu", in that order below) (Water: Xuanwu can shape water near herself and has more precise control, while Genbu can draw water from farther away and can control large amounts, they can harden it into semi-invulnerable ice when working in tandem)
-> Kirin/Qilin (Mythic Beastkin: large and powerful beast form, approx. 30m long, capable of limited levitation that he uses to walk on water and run on air (done via lifting up the rocky/mineral portions of his beast body), largely metallic horns allow him to call lightning when used in conjonction to his limited access to the Tenmei system and can be used to amass a charge between them to enhance charge attacks or electrify his body. Also possesses Earth/Metallic Ore Manipulation)
