Appearance
Rose is a slender woman of average height with lightly tanned white skin, with accentuated muscles reminiscent of a professional athlete. Her main notable feature is her long silver hair and a blade-shaped scar running over her right eye, who are red.
Her outfit consists on a dark red scarf, and a black mask that covers the mouth, with a dark-grey shirt with some light-grey details, dark-grey pants and boots with the same details.
Personality
Rose is renowned for her icy demeanor, rarely displaying emotions and maintaining a stoic facade. This is evident in her complete lack of excitement when carrying out her assigned kills, regardless of whether her targets are men, women, or even innocent bystanders. However, the moment she engages in combat, her sadistic nature is unleashed, relishing in the act of cutting down her opponents. She exhibits a twisted pleasure and a bloodlust, reveling in the sight of blood splattering during battles.
Beyond her sadistic tendencies, Rose possesses exceptional strategic acumen, capable of devising precise plans to counter any type of opponent. With great skill, she exploits the weaknesses and flaws of her adversaries, using them to her advantage. While she's someone who is mostly coded by personal honor, being an assassin, she feels no shame on cheating when it's necessary.
To Rose, a contract is akin to a solemn promise. Once she accepts a job, she tenaciously pursues its completion, demonstrating unwavering determination regardless of the target's social standing, whether it be a family man, the president, or even a reputed superhuman. Only contracts involving children or opponents deemed worthy may dissuade her from fulfilling her obligations.
However, hidden beneath her hardened exterior, Rose harbors a compassionate side for those she respects and considers innocent, particularly children. This empathy compels her to decline contracts involving them unless the situation requires her to act as their protector. It is rare for Rose to reveal her sensitive side, but the traumatic loss of her biological parents deeply affected her. Furthermore, she holds profound respect for her adoptive father and master, acknowledging his imperfections while emphasizing his role as a great father figure in her life.
Powers and Abilities
Enhanced Physiology: After more than 12 years under the training of her adoptive father/master samurai, Rose has acquired a physique that surpasses human limits, being considered as a true monster by those lucky enough to survive her attacks and an extremely notorious combatant in every way. Her dark chi mastery also allows her to increase her physical prowess even more.
Enhanced Strength: Rose has unparalleled physical strength, surpassing even individuals of larger stature. With a single hand, she can effortlessly lift and manipulate a bus, cleave through steel walls with her sword, and unleash devastating earthquakes that can rattle entire neighborhoods. By channeling dark chi into her blade, she has demonstrated the ability to slice an entire island in half, generating a shockwave that tore the sky asunder. In close-quarters combat, Rose's might is formidable enough to contend with renowned adversaries such as Itta.
Enhanced Speed: Rose's speed is nothing short of extraordinary, enabling her to move at velocities that surpass human perception. She effortlessly outpaces even the swiftest human athletes, effortlessly intercepting lightning strikes and reacting with lightning-fast reflexes to counterattacks; as well, casually, attacks that are light-speed, if the enemy is more "worthy" than the usual. At maximum speed, she can traverse the battlefield and respond to assaults with an agility that defies comprehension. Notably, she effortlessly evaded energy beams moving at 500 times the speed of light within the Lucky Zone.
Enhanced Reflexes: Alongside her remarkable speed, Rose possesses extraordinary reflexes. She effortlessly defies conventional firearms, cutting and deflecting machine gun bullets with remarkable ease, even at point-blank range.
Enhanced Durability: Her body is a testament to incredible resilience, capable of enduring an array of assaults with extraordinary resistance and unwavering pain tolerance. When she channels dark chi around her form, her endurance reaches even greater heights. She can withstand being hurled through entire buildings, endure intense flames from a flamethrower, and survive an island-shattering blast with minimal damage. Her durability extends to resisting tranquilizer darts, extreme temperatures, radiation, and wielding cursed weapons without succumbing to madness. She has even withstood a disintegrating laser beam that reduces matter to its molecular components.
Poison Resistance: In addition to her regenerative abilities, Rose's healing factor extends to her immune system, rendering her highly resistant, if not immune, to most known poisons and diseases.
Psychic Shield: Possessing indomitable willpower, Rose exhibits considerable resistance to telepathic manipulation. Her proficiency in dark chi enhances her resistance against attacks and powers that target the soul.
Enhanced Agility: Rose's honed physique grants her unparalleled agility, enabling swift evasive maneuvers against attacks that surpass her own speed. This heightened agility complements her mastery of the sword, enhancing her versatility in combat.
Enhanced Stamina: She can exert herself for extended periods without succumbing to fatigue, even while injured. Her master claims she can engage in continuous combat for days on end.
Regenerative Healing Factor: Rose possesses an awe-inspiring healing factor that, coupled with her exceptional durability, renders her a formidable adversary. By channeling her chi, she can heal minor wounds and punctures within seconds, while more severe injuries, including fourth-degree burns and organ destruction, require mere minutes for recovery. A testament to her resilience, Rose has healed from impalement by six swords and over 30 bullet wounds inflicted by an elite squad of criminals (all of them superpowered) in a matter of minutes.
Enhanced Senses: As a result of her rigorous training, Rose's senses have been heightened to supernatural levels. She can vanquish armed soldiers blindfolded and discern minute atmospheric changes, enabling her to engage invisible adversaries with ease.
Dark Chi Manipulation: Under the tutelage of her master, Rose acquired the ability to wield Dark Chi, a malevolent variant of the life force permeating all living beings. Diverging from its benign counterpart, Dark Chi possesses a sinister and nefarious nature. Rose expertly channels this energy, accessing various effects such as physical augmentation, accelerated healing, precognitive awareness, empowering her weapons, produce dimensional-slicing effects, cut through the non-physical, and many more. Notably, Rose exhibits exceptional control over this inherently volatile force, defying the fate of those consumed by its violent tendencies.
Self-Power Augmentation/Super Form: Rose can tap into the purest form of Dark Chi, assuming the empowered state known as "Oni's Wrath." In this form, every blow she lands weakens her opponents, regardless of their strength, as her attacks target their very souls. Furthermore, she gains heightened regeneration and durability, surpassing her already formidable capabilities, enabling her to better contend with formidable adversaries. However, this state comes with limitations, as prolonged use can prove fatal.
Powerful Aura: Rose's intense battle-spirit emanates as a formidable chi pressure, akin to a terrifying dark demon, overwhelming all who bear witness to her bloodlust in combat.
Abilities
Tactical Analysis: Years of relentless study and experience have forged Rose into a true genius of combat strategy. Her mind operates with remarkable speed, allowing her to perceive an opponent's weaknesses, unravel their fighting style, and devise intricate winning strategies in the blink of an eye. The battlefield is her domain, and she navigates it with an almost uncanny intuition, always staying a step ahead of her foes.
Master Combatant: Renowned across the world as one of the most formidable warriors, Rose's combat skills transcend ordinary mastery. She effortlessly excels in various disciplines and styles, whether unarmed or wielding a diverse array of weapons. Her unparalleled intellectual acuity complements her physical prowess, making her an unrivaled combatant who can adapt and overcome any adversary, no matter the odds.
Martial Arts Mastery: Among the countless warriors who tread the path of martial arts, Rose stands out as a true exemplar. She commands mastery over an astonishing array of over 60 distinct combat styles, each honed to perfection.

Pressure Point Intuition: The knowledge of pressure points and nerve clusters within the human body is a deadly weapon in Rose's arsenal. With surgical precision, she can exploit these vulnerabilities to induce paralysis, blindness, accelerated healing, and even instant death. This ability levels the playing field against physically stronger opponents, but it is when facing adversaries with significant power differentials that Rose's true mastery shines through, enabling her to challenge even the most formidable foes.
Multilingualism: Beyond her prowess in combat, Rose's intellect extends to linguistic mastery. Fluent in seven languages - English, Greek, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, French, and Japanese - she effortlessly navigates the intricacies of communication in various corners of the world. This linguistic dexterity opens doors to understanding cultures, forging alliances, and gathering intelligence, making her a formidable diplomat and a versatile asset in any endeavor.

Whether evading detection or setting up the perfect ambush, her skill in stealth grants her a decisive advantage on the battlefield. To her adversaries, she is a phantom that strikes from the shadows, leaving them disoriented and vulnerable to her deadly precision.
Weaknesses
Like every user, Rose's chi amount is not infinite and she can end up wearing out if she uses too much.
Despite being considered very violent, Rose has a sense of honor that does not allow her to cheat and even makes her deny victory (if she thinks she's getting an unfair advantage).

Trivia
Character created by Opfan33.
Rose's favorite appetizer is japanese sake, and her last favorite one is chamomile tea. This irritates her master, as the tea is his favorite one.
Rose hates using firearms, saying they serve as cheating.
According to some mob bosses, if Rose had a bounty, it would surpass the $500 million mark.
Little is actually known about Rose, but rumors has it said that she was raised by a samurai mentor who taught her the Demon's Fighting Style making her an extremely skilled mercenary who strikes terror in the hearts of others. Which, after sometime, was confirmed as true. She was raised by an extremely skilled samurai called Akihiro Adachi, aka the Kaze-Samurai.
Rose's scar over her right eye, in addition to being a distinctive feature, holds a deeper significance. It was inflicted during a pivotal battle in her past, and the story behind the scar remains shrouded in mystery.
Before Itta Sakazaki (Wind-Blade) left Akihiro's dojo, she knew and already fought with him sometimes in trainings. But, in terms of relationship, they were indifferent towards one another. Knowing Itta's current status, she thinks it's a shame that a greatly skilled samurai had become a wanderer. Once a time, they would fight again after Rose made a contract with Johan to take Asami and her school down.
It's currently unknown why she wants to defeat Itta so badly; even though none of the two never had any kind of trouble together.
It is due to Johan (Gravestone), that her biological father was killed. Basically, her father was in debt with the Order of the End and didn't paid in time; so Johan's agents simply went to Rose's house and killed her father. Rose's mother died months later due to depression, leaving Rose alone until Adachi adopted her. She only accepted Johan's terms to help him in his plans because she wanted to defeat Itta; otherwise, not even in billion years she would accept joining him. She already worked, as an infiltration, in a casino that is related to Johan's Order of the End; to prepare to invade Fuyunote's school.
Rose's daily routine is highly structured and adhered to with military precision. She wakes up at precisely 4:30 AM and engages in rigorous physical training before breakfast, a habit she inherited from her adoptive father, Akihiro.
The alias "Blackgrave" is rumored to have been given to her by an underworld kingpin who witnessed her relentless killings. It is said that the name symbolizes both the darkness that surrounds her and the countless graves she has filled with her victims.
Rose already trained under Asami's care for a good time (at the request of Adachi himself). Asami admitted that Rose is possibly one of the deadliest, yet well-mannered students she ever had. Even before starting training, Rose's dark aura was enough to make Asami feel a chill on her spine.
