*Text Reading*
"Hello and Congratulations! If you're reading this, that means you already know about us! The so-called Entaku no KISHI! My name is Mirai and I am part of the intelligence and research team of the organization. I spend my days collecting information in collaboration with Umbra about confined or missing people.
During my constant research I wrote down this album with my field notes of all the incredible abilities of the KISHI members. It's also stated their current swordsmanship skill level from S, the highest rank, to E the lowest. Although regular training ends at A rank, KISHI's can obtain the S tier rank from synchronising their quirk with their swords to the max or by being in the special regiment of Kay the Fourth, and Lancelot the Fifth, classified as two of the Twelve Knights.
I wish this will help you find more details about our powers and also, assist you on knowing your teammates a bit better when attending future missions."

Name: Aoyama, Yui
Age: 18 years old
Gender: Female
Motherland: Unknown, Japan.
Blessing: Burning Spirit
Sword Style: Dual Mastery, Single Style.
Sword Skill: A+
Description:
"Burning Spirit, is a self-strengthening quirk that produces colored flames accordingly to the amount of force she uses on certain parts of her body. Every flame colour changes depending on Yui's feelings and affects the way she approaches combat.
Blue Flames. Activate on serenity and confidence. They don't produce enough heat to inflict burns, but it's overall balanced strength and little stamina consumption makes them Yui's best choice.
Red Flames. Activate on rage and wrath. Their heat is extremely high and allows for long range attacks. Red flames consume grant part of Yui's stamina when continuously used at long ranges. Increases destructive power but lowers her defense options.
Yellow Flames. Activate on fear or high stress. When Yui feels fear, these flames cover her body and protect her, but she is unable to move around freely. As the flames serve as a shield, her body gets stuck in place.
Many emotions and colour flames are still unknown to her. She is aware that having emotionally investing relations could alter her powers severely.
Finally, Yui has a physical condition; she is unable to be illuminated by direct sunlight because her skin burns and extreme pain covers her body. That's why she protects the Kishi headquarters at night from possible attacks or disruptions!"
Strengths:
"Overall High Attack, Speed and Defense.
High Versatility.
Close range combat effectiveness."
Weaknesses:
"Vulnerable when caught of guard and under sunlight.
Can't directly control the type of flames she uses.
Tires herself quickly on medium to long range battles.
Emotional damage affects her control over Burning Spirit."
Equipment:
"Two custom made Chukutō. No alterations. Tainted Black.
Due to her power not being able to be induced into objects, the swords' blades can be easily replaced in case of break or overuse wear."

Name: Aoyama, Shion.
Age: 14 years old
Gender: Male
Motherland: Unknown, Japan.
Blessing: Burning Soul
Sword Style: Alter Mastery, Great Single Style.
Sword Skill: C+
Description:
"Burning Soul, is an energy inducing quirk that produces heatless blue colored flames proportionally to the amount of energy he uses on certain materials or into himself. The flame is always active on Shion's inside body and can not be dispelled. It is said by her sister, that his power is controlled by power of thought, which means, Shion needs to have a clear mind when reaching his quirk to further limits. Both her sister Yui and him, use a short quote to concentrate before every battle (This sorts of small sentences or words for using designated power abilities are very common on the Fourth's teachings).
When applied into himself, Shion activates his flames and they firstly appear on his Head. In that state, he can fight with above-human strength and resistance. Secondly, when the flames are used in all his body, his overall strength can reach unmesurable levels, but a clear mind is required to move without losing control and returning back to his normal state. Finally, in his normal state, inner-flames protect him from minor damage and they increase Shion's natural regeneration.
When applied into and object, the energy can be concentrated to generate rapid bursts of force on impact. For example: a ball slammed by a flame induced baseball bat will go flying hundreds of meters with low effort. It appears that the blue flames of Shion's power represent a neutral state of energy itself, and when mechanical energy is applied into an object, all force and additional speed are effectively increased, making the object able to sustain harder impacts and at the same time, strike harder.
But, further information is required."
Strengths:
"High Attack and Speed capabilities.
Amazing Defense.
Low stamina consumption.
Close range combat effectiveness.
Burning Soul limits are unknown."
Weaknesses:
"Combat inexperience. Only fought against his sister.
Any minor thought weakens the ability.
Smart, but lacks knowledge. Still very young.
Her sister's power clouds his own confidence and strength."
Equipment:
"Custom Greatsword. Enhanced Metal alloy. Tainted Black.
The Greatsword has an extensible second handle for inducing more energy with both hands at the same time."

Name: Ranalli, Angelo.
Age: 19 years old
Gender: Male
Motherland: Lecce, Italy.
Blessing: Despotic Touch
Sword Style: Alter Mastery, Martial Single Style.
Sword Skill: A
Description:
"Despotic Touch is a quirk that allows the user to control people's will on direct contact with the target. Angelo's right hand has to touch the target to obey him for a certain amount of time. But, when Angelo puts his hand on their face, he can place a powerful and long-lasting order on their minds that can even alter rational thought for at least 2 years.
Normal orders have physical limitations and they might not work on strong-willed individuals, they will only work on the second case, with Angelo's right hand on their face. These lasting orders can only be set once at a time and people may become immune to them afterwards (further testing required). This quirk does not provide any physical enhancement to Angelo, he can only rely on his own Martial Arts and Swordsmanship to approach the opponent and subdue them.
It appears that Angelo's quirk passively makes him take the best decisions at any critical moment. Every time Angelo goes out his way to do something, everyone is paying attention. Although Angelo does not have the power to become one of the best Twelve Entaku Kinghts, everyone respects his decisions and is willing to act accordingly.
Strengths:
One touch KO opponents.
Perfect Interrogation.
Strong against large groups of weak enemies.
High Level Martial arts.
Weapon versatility.
Weakness:
Low offensive power.
Weak against raw strenght.
Average Stamina.
Injuring his right hand.
Equipment:
"Any melee weapon. Base sword: Any. No modifications. No taint.
With his discipline in Martial Arts, Angelo is able to adapt to any given scenario disarming his opponents and using any available weapon: knifes, daggers, axes, spears, fireguns... etc."

*Text Reading Stops*
(closes textbook)
After Kay's exhibition of power, I went back to my room, changed clothes, laid on my bed, and started reading a textbook that was on my nightstand. There; quirks, skills and equipment used by KISHI were described. I looked up for Shion, Angelo, and Kay. All of them got me wondering what powers they might have. I also searched who the lowest Entaku was and investigated Shion sister out of pure curiosity.
Wow! What amazing powers! Wait, they called them Blessings? But I've heard Kay said quirk before... I'll ask later.
Ah! So that's the warm flame Shion showed me. Also... we are the same age.
But most importantly... Why do all twelve Entaku have their information censored? Maybe is because their abilities are too powerful... or maybe they keep it a secret from the rest of the Kishi for when they try to challenge them. Or... maybe... they are too complex for people to comprehend...
I also didn't find any mention of Arthur. How weird... he is supposed to be their leader but there is no mention about him whatsoever.
Anyways! Kay said that I should start my classes tomorrow. I hope to properly thank Shion for saving me, and Angelo, and that tall guy that was also with them. I should thank him too.
I wish to make friends with some of the people around here. Although I've never been rude to anyone back at high school, I couldn't make any deep friendship relations. Maybe my life here will be different. This might be the place I belonged all along. Who knows...
Who... knows...
As I was falling asleep started thinking that I didn't had dinner, but my stomach didn't felt empty.
They really fed me while I was sleep. How? There was no tube, no syringe, no nothing. Maybe is an ability? Argh... I need to stop overthinking...
...
Shion... Thank you... so much.
My eyes were closing by themselves. Even though all my past life was gone, the weeks I spent on the lab convinced me of the tragedy.
I knew my parents were dead when a scientist reached out to me and said that they will never be able to come back. But I refused to believe him.
The beautiful flowers where the only thing that was taking care of me. Few days past until I lost hope of my parents arrival, but instead, I hoped for the flowers to keep me safe forever.
I missed my parents. They were killed because they were worried about me. And I knew for a fact that they would have told me to take this opportunity and keep moving forward, always with a smile on my face and to continue my life without them. I already made up my mind that I would seek the ones responsible for all of this and punish them accordingly.
Only time will tell when will that moment be.
Mom... Dad.... I love you. I always did...
...and I always will.
