Kuyo Oyu

Kuyo Oyu, also known as Aquifer, is a combat Soterian in the Top 50 who doubles as an RSW teacher at Zeus High.

Appearance
Kuyo is of average height for his age, with a slim, muscular build and fair skin tone. He has medium length, spiky cyan hair with choppy bangs that hang over his eyebrows. His eyes are sharp and cyan in color, much like his hair.

Kuyo's Soterian uniform consists of a white tank top, black unattached sleeves that turn into fingerless gloves, black pants and a collar with three, blue gems in the center of it. His Soterian uniform also has small pouches connected to his upper arms that hold water for him to use in combat if he does not have access to external sources of water.

Personality
Kuyo is a very stern and mostly reserved individual who has average expectations of his students. While Kuyo does come off as cold and strict, he really does care for the students he teaches and seemingly always knows the best things to say to them in trying times.

The Soterian side of Kuyo is similar to how he is as a teacher, but with a few differences. Kuyo, like some Soterians, disagrees with the celebrity aspect of it but has shown to accept it since it's only inevitable. Kuyo seems to become an entirely different person when he's in the middle of serious situation. He almost never talks, mainly because his skills and quick-thinking capabilities shine when he is focused. Kuyo values Soterians when they've seen the dark side of the work field. He believes a Soterian that isn't prepared for everything is doomed to fail.

As a civilian, Kuyo always keeps to himself and is seemingly always tired by the way he subtly hunches and yawns every now and then.

After witnessing the death of his close friend Jean, Kuyo went from being a rather hotheaded individual to a dull, bland and depressed one. Many people on the island of Forseti have been affected by its dark side, and Kuyo is one of them.

Amp
Hydrokinesis: Kuyo's amp allows him to control anything with water properties. When using his amp, Kuyo can do a plethora of things with it, including freezing the water, treating wounds, and more.

While powerful and very convenient, this amp has a few drawbacks:


 * Kuyo cannot summon water, he must use preexisting water.
 * He can only control water if a part of his body is moving along with it.
 * He cannot melt the water he freezes.

Equipment
Machete: Kuyo carries a large machete behind his lower back that he uses to cut the ice he creates. He does not use it for offensive maneuvers, but if he must, he will.

Water Pouches: Kuyo has small pouches of water that are strapped to his upper arms just in case he needs to use his amp with no water around.

Extra

 * Kuyo's Soterian name derives from the term "aquifer." An aquifer is a body of permeable rock which can contain or transmit groundwater, implying that Kuyo himself is that permeable rock.
 * Kuyo's first name comes from the Japanese word for ocean: Kaiyō, which literally translates to "ocean." His last name, Oyu, comes from the Japanese word for "hot water."
 * Before Kuyo's amp awakening, he could not freeze water.
