Physical Description
General Physical Condition
Peak athletic condition, comparable to an Olympic athlete
Special abilities
Loy can harness her mind in several ways most humans don't. She can use the pathways of breath as a form of geolocation, can tune her own energy and breath and emptiness to the empty spaces of physical objects and 'ask' them to break, can direct attacks along the breath meridians giving the appearance of uncanny aim and precision.

Personality Characteristics
Motivation
Loy seeks to rid herself of the assassin's urge, along with any compunction to harm anyone ever. She doesn't quite understand (or care to, frankly) the origin of this seeking; she merely pursues it. Yet because it has been so long a habit, she is very reluctant to put it down.
She would also like to 'really' love someone, but believes she doesn't know how to.

Family Ties
Kafta is her bestfriend.
She loathes Johann and avoids him whenever possible. He is still obsessed with her.
Her relationship with both her biological parents is strained, but especially with her father, Tuffy.
Religious Views
Loy is atheist in the most literal sense; she has no beliefs about gods or the universe, and couldn't care less.
Social Aptitude
Loy is somewhat impaired in functioning for both social contracts and precautionary reasoning, but not at all with regard to descriptive reasoning. This leads to very bold, amoral, risk-taking behavior even in the face of her desire to refrain from such activities. Her boldness, however, gives the impression of supreme confidence and self-assuredness (which is not entirely false) which others tend to respond favorably to. She is also very fit, happens to look conventionally attractive, and is driven to have sex with almost anyone, so she tends to be very socially successful by the metrics of others. But to herself, she doesn't understand why she can't achieve what she really wants and why the same things don't matter to her that matter to others, nor does she have any real curiosity about it.
Speech
Loy speaks with a posh Azzine accent, but her dialect varies depending upon the situation.
