Designer's Notes: Saki Asamiya is the star of the two-episode (so far) anime series Sukeban Deka. She is a pink-haired, former juvenile delinquent who is blackmailed (by the police!) into 'cleaning up' her old school, Takanora High. It seems that she is no longer the biggest bad-ass around. Instead, the three Mizuchi (Water Blood?) Sisters—Remi, Ayumi, and Emi—have moved in and taken over. Each specializes in a certain branch of crime; together they rule, although they will fight if needed.

The Mizuchi sisters are the daughters of a very highly-placed and powerful crimelord, which affords them a great deal of power in infiltrating and corrupting the law. This is why the police turn to Saki... Anyway, Saki's a great yo-yo warrior, her yo-yo being made of special materials to make it unbreakable and useful in a number of ways.

Description: Of average height, Saki's waist-length pink hair, drawn into a ponytail, combined with her striking, green eyes and the cool, calm, utterly self-possessed look on her face, give her a strong, powerful aura. At school she wears a long-sleeved, long-skirted blue 'seifuku' (sailor fuku), and black patent-leather shoes, although off-campus she takes to a dark grey shirt, jeans, boots, and a trench-coat. She gives the appearance of wiry strength and boundless determination.

Powers Notes: Saki's a pretty standard anime martial artist; she is a fast runner, can superleap and as the ability to absorb an inordinate amount of damage (the Damage Reduction power). She can obviously fight without her yo-yo and shows a lot of hand-to-hand skill. The Yo-Yo's high HA damage dice is intended to reflect the fact that it is weapon intended to knock out—or kill—in several attacks. Note: the string and yo-yo are supposedly unbreakable. Otherwise, she's pretty much as-is; her high Dex reflecting her speed.

Disadvantages Notes: Again, these are pretty standard; her Contact, Kyoichiro Jin, is also her Watcher, and is likely poised to take her down—hard—should she get out of line. The Hunteds are from the first series; since she kills all of them throughout the series, it's presumable that her Hunteds would change to fit the scenario. They don't have the Limited Geography limitation because the entire story of Sukeban Deka in the initial two episodes revolve entirely around the school. Thus, since they are omnipresent in every facet of the school's society, they are, in effect, everywhere. Saki isn't perfect; she is a former crook, taken out of Juvenile Detention to serve the police, and she is very, very vengeful. The murder of one of her friends sparks the battle which ends with the Four Devas and the Mizuchi Sisters dead. (The Four Devas are Aymui's four bodyguards)
