Sumire Konoe

"I heard what you said. I’m not the silly romantic you think. I don’t want the heavens or the shooting stars. I don’t want gemstones or gold. I have those things already. I want…a steady hand. A kind soul. I want to fall asleep, and wake, knowing my heart is safe. I want to love, and be loved."

Sumire Konoe (近衛 菫, Konoe Sumire), known as Sekhmet (セクメト, Kujira), is a skilled Virtual Reality game player, who began playing Xostya based on the suggestion from her friend.

Appearance
Sumire is a very well developed and fit young woman with long, flowing brown hair, possessing cute bangs and braided buns on the top of her hair. Her eyes are a light brown color which have a slight violet glint in them.

Sekhmet is very cute and has the appearance of a buxom fourteen-year-old girl. Described as a true beauty, she has pale shiny skin, seductive crimson-red eyes, and fine facial features. Sekhmet's silver hair is let loose in the back, possessing very short bangs, allowing others a full view of her face.

Personality
Sumire is almost always a calm and collected character, rarely showing any signs of distress. However, she is actually a kind person, willing to sacrifice herself to help others. She is shown to have an uncommonly kind heart. She is also a very emotional person and lets her emotions control her from time to time. Sumire is shown to be able to do practically anything, never finding anything she hasn't been able to do with perfection, even if she's never done it before.

Calm and cool are two words that best describe Sekhmet's personality. In battle and most of the time in the game, she keeps a cool head, which earns her respect from her friends. However, Sekhmet has a violent temper once angered.

Sekhmet's class build makes her an extremely dangerous opponent against particular Magic Casters like Necromancers. However, Sekhmet's magic resistance is affected by her opponent’s stats and levels. Even a 10th tier spell by a weak magic caster will not be enough to breach her resistance.

The maximum amount of spells a level 100 player could learn was 300. However, Sekhmet used her special ability "Dark Wisdom" to learn and memorize 718 different spells. Even those spells she had not learned could still become a weapon to read her opponents’ strengths, once Sekhmet knew of them.

Skills

 * Blood Armament
 * Blood Pool: A skill that creates an orb of enchanted blood that can store the blood of victims for various purposes. For instance, it can drain mana from the victim's blood. This way, one can use skills that augment spells without consuming extra MP.
 * Impure Shockwave Shield: A reddish-black wave of force that spreads forth from the user's body. It may be used defensively against attacks, or offensively in close range. It is a skill that combines offense and defense. It may be used two times a day.
 * Purifying Javelin: It is a class skill used by Sekhmet to create a gigantic lance of the holy element. Despite her own evil alignment, the javelin can still cause massive damage to her foes as a holy-based ranged attack. The javelin can also inflict a curse on the target upon hitting them. Most importantly, she can spend the extra amount of MP to imbue it with perfect accuracy and tracking ability. However, it can only be used three times per day.
 * Raise Kin: A skill used to summon several types of monsters, including 7th tier Vampire Wolves.
 * Summon Household: A skill that allows her to summon a multitude of different familiars, such as Elder Vampire Bats, Vampire Bat Swarms, rats, Vampire Wolves, etc.
 * Time Reverse: It is a skill that negate the damage caused by a single attack. The damage she sustains is instantly converted back into health. The blood spilled out after taking damage will then flow back into her body, as though time itself has reversed to render the attack completely ineffective. However, turning back time to recover damage can only be done three times a day.

Passive

 * Blood Frenzy: The more blood Sekhmet's body is covered in, the stronger she becomes and her attack power soars. Because of that, she will slowly lose control of her mind and becomes unable to hold back her urge to slaughter. Without those mental brakes, Sekhmet would indiscriminately massacre any prey she sees. To prevent activating it, she needs to fight while avoiding getting hit with blood and sucking it up with a weapon or other equipment.
