History
Creation
Ichiro Koso and his wife Minako had a beautiful child they named Kisumi Koso. At the age of four this child came into contact with her powers over the minds of others and even her own. After a very messy Divorce Ichiro vowed to remake his family, starting with his daughter. After a failed creation he was finally successful in cloning his daughter and named the creation Kinata.
Kinata was developed to be in every way like Ichiro's daughter including her powers. However because of complications trying to recreate magical mind altering powers into a small girl her mind was split and she developed many personalities. Confined in the small lab Kinata, Kinata, Kinata, and Kinata spent all their time learning from the only man they knew, and developing their skills over the minds of others. For twelve years she was developed to be not only a daughter to Ichiro but also a weapon. Before Ichiro had the chance to continue his work making more daughters, One of Kinata's personalities decided she would kill the father that she simply couldn't stand. It was only moments after she had forced Ichiro to skin himself and eat his flesh that a 25 year old Kisumi came and found the girl that was created in her image.
Teen Years
Living under the care of the woman she now called sister, Kinata tried to mimic Kisumi and to use her powers as a hero for the city. However with her 4 very different personalities she was often causing more trouble than helping. The young girl learned fast that some of her sides were best kept hidden and away from others a feat not easily attained.
Current
Now a member of the The Jadewire Kinata has tried to learn to harness the emotions of her split personalities and try to balance them out. Her close friends in the organization like K.C. Krystal have helped her to get a hold on her self both in and out of the field.
Her love for her friends in and out of Jade Wire and her strong sense of justice keep the young lady going Always trying to help more people than she has hurt.
Personalities
Kinata has thousands of voices constantly in her head however only 4 of them are actually full blown split personalities. These four often take dominance over the body and do what they feel they should while in control. They each place an Illusionary veil over Kinata's body making her look as they feel she should to others.
Playful
This personality stoped developing when Kinata was very young perhaps at the point of the tragic killing of her father. When in this form Kinata behaves like a young girl wanting to play and feeling that boys are icky this personality is very easy to get along with and wants to befriend everyone. She is often heard talking fondly of her father and seems to not remember or accept that he is in fact dead.
Passion
This personality stems from Kinata's want to be loves and cared for. While in this form Kinata becomes a lustful and passionate lover of everyone. Sexual orientation does not matter to her at all even using her powers to make others view her as the opposite sex to get the satisfaction she wants. Although lust and passion are quick fixes to her need this personality above all else wants to be loved.
Anger
This is the personality that killed Kinata's father. Angry at the world this form seeks only to destroy all that she can. Her hatred stops with nothing and there is no life she had respect for even her own.
Logic
This personality is the heroic side of Kinata, her logical decisions and high moral standard make her the most useful to the people of paragon city. However because of her lack of emotion her choices can sometimes seem harsh, unfair and in some cases wrong. This personality comes off very rude thinking that "Conversation not involving crime fighting tactics, is unnecessary." and many heroes while realizing what a asset to a team she is, are not fond of her.
Powers
Kinata has powers over the way people perceive the world. With her Illusions she can make Criminals think friends are foes, speed or slow the movement of another, make allies feel their wounds are healed, even create combatants out of thin air. Some have said that her Illusionary powers are so advanced that she is actually altering reality to achieve these temporary effects, but this has not been validated.
Skills & Equipment
Because she is constantly bombarded by the voices of thousands Kinata is almost impervious to mind control, in fact often she doesn't realize that there is even someone else digging around in her mind.
Recently she has been given a Vanguard helmet that helps her to focus her abilities and to subdue her emotions letting her use 100% of her mind to cause Illusions that are so powerful that people believe that she is at this point altering reality.
