Ventablack. She modified it herself so that it catches no light. Does this as a fashion statement. It is long and reaches down to her waist. It never seems to get tangled.
Black but wears red eye contacts as a fashion thing. Could change her eyes herself but red eyes are harder to handwave than contacts.
Delicate with defined arms
Tsuriko is a delicate, poised woman who stands tall. She tends to wear formfitting clothing of her design which means nearly everything she wears is somehow crafted from an animal she has used Vicissitude on. She has a high sense of fashion often looking rich and put together although the crane she normally has around her shoulders which is still living just horribly disfigured and cannot move yet aware is a centrepiece most Kine would find uncomfortable. Normally a hat is placed on her head for fashion reasons and she has modified her body to appeared a bit more unique too. Nails tend to be painted a sparkly red and are grown long. Feet normally hidden by the hem of a dress, when she walks it can make her appear as if she is gliding across the ground.
Her skin is awash with life, a testament to her desire for kindness even if it is twisted due to vampirism. She strives for humanity and is seen as more caring than other Kindred.
Tsuriko was born in Hiroshima on the 25th of March, 1924 but did not grow up there. With tensions growing thanks to the Great War her parents decided before she was born to move to San Francisco, America. They managed to get in right before the Immigration Act of 1924 was signed and so she grew up in that city. Her parents opened up a textiles store which she assisted in when she could through designing, weaving and running when her parents could not. Both she and her family were targeted with racially charged hate crimes which only got worse in the advent of World War 2.
One man saw an instance of this hatred and curiously watched one night, eventually stepping in when he found the textiles in the store to be most pleasant. Tall, refined and someone born outside of the country he made himself acquainted as Lucian Vasuliu after dismissing the individuals. Grateful, Tsuriko and her family thanked the man. He continued to make himself a frequent visitor of the store and talked much with a young adult Tsuriko whom at this time was already becoming a skilled weaver influenced by nature and the patterns found within.
Being a handsome fellow, Tsuriko grew an attachment to him. Her love life was otherwise uneventful. A beauty in her own right, World War 2 and the effects of that still brought her no joy. She continued to run the store and assist her parents.
In 1954 Lucian eventually Embraced her as her skill had become so much with the textiles that he wanted to preserve it. He had planned it for a while even venturing to her birthplace before the atomic bomb went off to collect soil from it making the soil Tsuriko possess untainted. He trained her in the art of Vicissitude which she applied to her textiles. She began weaving hair and fur, making leather products and incorporating teeth, claws and feathers into designs. During this time her love for him faded but their relationship remained respectful to the point where in the 1970s they both travelled to Transylvania where she learned Romanian and Koldunic Sorcery. Being tied to the land, Tsuriko ended up developing a dependence on Transylvanian soil in addition to the soil of her birthplace. She also received a new last name that being Cocor after the cranes she loves to observe.
During the training her and Lucian parted ways. Tsuriko earning a bit of respect due to her study of Koldonism eventually made her way back to America and started mediating between factions as a neutral party. Whilst she did not broker peace as there is no such thing in Kindred society she did help deliver messages and lessen the extent of conflicts to some degree. She now finds herself in Baltimore to deal with the society there.
