HISTORY

The daughter of a Japanese businessman and a Filipina mother, Mayumi absorbed a strange gem as a child. Glowing glyphs later appeared across her body, initially mistaken for a dangerous condition but actually a mysterious language. When travelers from the future sought the power within her, it erupted to save her. Her uncle Rufo, an expert in languages, has been trying to decipher the ancient texts, which may be connected to the Philippines’ mystical past.

POWERS/ABILITIES

Mayumi can use the glyphs on her skin to form shields and energy projectiles. Her powers have many still-undiscovered applications, and their manifestations sometimes cause her pain.
