Lil

Lil (リル, Riru) is a member of the Setsudan. She was created from the death of Mūbiki's human daughter, who passed away at the age of eight through unknown causes. Mūbiki cared for her deeply, as of all children he had conceived throughout his various lives she and her mother were most precious to him. He described her as a "stubborn, headstrong girl", and Lil was shaped in her likeness.

Appearance
Lil appears as a small girl of eight with purple eyes and a thick bush of long black hair, held together by a pink cherry blossom clip. Her hair also has several pink spot scattered through it, for unknown reasons. Lil has a very petite frame and appears very fragile - in stark contrast to her true nature. She has a very stoic expression and hasn't been seen smiling once, although she does not appear particularly sad either.

Throughout all of her appearances Lil has worn a katabira, a plain, white, unlined children kimono. She also goes barefoot, although this doesn't seem to hinder her in any way. Because of her black hair, white clothing and stoic expression Lil has often been mistaken for a ghost and has given birth to many scary stories.

Hand-to-Hand Prowess
Ōmonogui (大物食い; Literally "defeating a superior opponent"); is the name of the style Lil has portrayed in combat. It is, as its name suggest, a hakuda branch that seeks to always win the battle, no matter the opponent’s strength. While seeming kind of a redundant goal, the core of the style lies in the user’s utter devotion to this goal and this goal solely. When using Ōmonogui, the combatant must be prepared to give up everything for the sake of winning - even if it means losing body parts or death, while practicing Ōmonogui the user can only stop fighting when he has won or perished. Henceforth, Ōmonogui always seeks out a “superior position”, whatever the cost. The practitioner will endure any kind of pain or maiming to get a hit in. This complete devotion is what allows the user of Ōmonogui to combat enemies of much higher skill, since most enemies aren’t willing to go that far to win a simple battle. The nature of a battle does not matter – whether it is a simple brawl between friends or a battle to save the universe, the user must throw himself completely or Ōmonogui cannot be used. It should be noted that even though the user loses all sight of any other goals or values, they are not fighting mindlessly. In Ōmonogui their completely thought process and all of their bodily functions are pushed to and beyond the limit, allowing them to fight at their full capacity in exchange for their health. It is only expected that Ōmonogui is a very dangerous art to use, and fights where it is seriously utilized mostly if not always end with the practitioner’s demise. Nevertheless, the sheer determination and disregard of pain can push one’s abilities far beyond their level, to the point that an Academy Student would be able to defeat a captain, while of course losing his own life in the process.
