Age: 16
Personality:
Eloquently handsome, Haruka can easily talk to anyone in any public situation and have no problem performing in front of crowds or camera. Combined with her prince-like poetic demeanor and musical talents, she will steal the heart of both male and female audience alike.
Haruka can be considered to have an unfaltering optimism, to the point of naive. Although she is not naive enough to think that Grimm could be redeemed, she would always believe that the good always win in the end. Her optimism proved to be a great asset in combination with her strong sense of responsibility and protectiveness, which forms a driving force behind her passion as a magical girl. She takes her job seriously, and ends every battle swiftly in order to keep everyone safe, including her teammate.
Additionally, Haruka is very mentally resilient. She had been able to face against an extremely powerful Grimms without faltering, even though she was inexperienced at the time, as well as being at a disadvantage. She can easily conquer any fear in her heart, and quite literally shine against all odds.
However, despite being naturally strong and reliable, the constant pressure often gets to her as well. Haruka often finds difficulty in confiding her weakness to her friend, and more often than not would push them away when she was in doubt. Because of this, Haruka often stay with herself alone when she falters, and shut everyone out.

Spending a year in front of camera had solidified Haruka's latent ability as an actor. She most often puts on her "Prince Charming" persona whenever she appears on Doki Doki Channel, which she found to be extremely effective especially at raising her friends morale. Yet, due to the fact that some magical girl approached her because they were attracted to Haruka's Prince Charming persona, and not because they actually cared about Haruka's feeling deep down, Haruka found herself keeping most strangers at arm's length, only interacting with them with her persona.
Luckily, she also have a select few that she truly opens up to. The true self of her which was a fiery young girl who missed her father dearly.
Biography:
Born to a Japanese female Takarazuka stage actor, and a male US army soldier stationed in Japan, Haruka lost her mother at a young age during the Grimmocalypse. She was raised by her father, Piers Harket, alone. Her father had saved many lives during the crisis, and had since been leading a group of survivor in Osaka. He was selfless, but also smart enough to survive and recognises hopeless situations. At the same time, he was also charismatic, and was able to instilled hope amongst the survivors and managed to rallied them together. Haruka was inspired to be like him, and began to adopt a similar charismatic demeanour as well.
Haruka learned much of the street smart from her father, who realizes that he couldn't always take care of his own daughter 24/7. He taught her many things including how to start a fire, how to tie a rope, and how to use knife to defend herself. The knife quickly became her most favourite tool, and Haruka would often spend her time maintaining the knife that she had received from her father, keeping it sharp and shiny. She never really learned how to do make-ups or how to be lady-like, and was more like a boy than a girl.
Courage ran in the family, and Haruka eventually nagged her father enough to let her help him out whenever they had to engage a Grimm. Although they had almost never killed any Grimm, it was often just to buy her and the other survivors enough time to conduct rescue effort. Haruka and her father were well respected amongst the survivors, and the group continued to save more and more lives during the crisis.
Soon, Doki-Doki channel emerged, and it immediately became Haruka's favourite channel. Haruka would find her second idol then, the magical girls. They were strong, charismatic, and inspired hope in everyone much like her father did. She loved watching the show, and would always gather the other survivors to watch the show with her whenever it aired. Since Haruka was the daughter of the famous policeman that saved a lot of lives, most of the survivor jokingly and affectionately called her a magical girl, dubbing her “Shining Blade” after her favourite tool of choice. Haruka would often ended up pretending to be a magical girl to entertain herself and the survivors during her free time, and pretended to pull out an imaginary sword out of nowhere. Her life then changed when she actually managed to pull out a magical shining sword out of nowhere, much to the amazement of the survivors and her father. She was around 13 at the time.
As any parents would, Haruka’s father objected against Haruka signing up to be a magical girls to fight against the Grimms. Eventually, he realised how much this opportunity meant to Haruka, and contacted the DDC about his daughter.
=====Consumed World=====
It has been a year since she had joined DDC as magical girl. Although her rank wasn't rising at any extraordinary rate, she had attained a steady, and strong cult following from the female audience instead. Thanks to her appeal towards the female demographic, the fanbase even included some magical girl within DDC themselves. Ironically, some of her magical girl fan were actually above Haruka in the popularity chart.
Haruka had since familiarized herself with her power, and often found herself as the lead attacker when working in team. She often chose to take part in operation near Osaka prefecture in order to meet her father every once in a while.
Primary Power: Knight's Steel
Haruka can conjure an extremely dense and heavy steel of any shape with her magical power within 10 meter radius. This allows her to conjure heavy armour, weapons, and any equipments for any situations. Sword, spear, hammer, breast-plate, bridges, you name it. Knight's steel are smooth silver in colour.
The energy needed to conjure a steel depends on the size, shape, and familiarity of the object that Haruka wants to make. The bigger, the more energy will be required. The more complex, the less efficient it is to be conjured. However, Haruka can train herself to become familiar with conjuring a certain shape, which will allow her to become more efficient at conjuring them.
Although the steel are heavy, it appears to be weightless when Haruka wields them. This is thanks to the fact that Haruka can telekinetically manipulate her own steel, with the force proportional to the mass of the steel. It is not strong enough to levitate, however. The telekinesis allows Haruka to dampen most impact to her steel, and increases momentum in her steel as well. This greatly increases her defensive and offensive capabilities.
Once conjured, the steel cannot be mold out of it's shape. Instead, Haruka can de-materialize her steel to refund portion the magic used in conjuring them, and then conjure a different object instead.
Knight's Steel also dematerialize and return to Haruka as magical energy once she goes out of her transformed state.
Secondary Power: Spirit of the Steel
Haruka can imbue her steel with positive or negative emotion magic.
Positive magic will give her steel a golden aura. Golden steel shines brightly and lightly burns all Grimm nearby. It also lightly heals human, and greatly stabilize and improve their emotional state.
Negative magic will turn her steel jet black. Black steel are even denser, but also much easier to manipulate with Haruka's telekinesis of her own construct to the point that they can be effortlessly levitated.
Haruka can simultaneously charge one steel with positive magic, and another with negative magic.
While charged, steel can persist even though Haruka is not transformed or conscious. However, they will slowly loses their energy over time if Haruka does not maintain it. Eventually, they revert back to neutral Knight's steel, and dematerializes.
Tertiary Skill: Actor's Bloodline
Haruka is unbelievably good at singing. She can sing almost any style in a wide vocal range. She is also unbelievably good at acting, allowing her to adopt any persona during public display or even in simple conversation.
=====Consumed World=====
Haruka have since adopted a Prince Charming persona as her main magical girl persona. She seems almost like a Prince from a young girl's romance fiction. This allows Haruka to inspire hope and courage within her friends effectively, as well as raising her rating in DDC.
Hyper Power: Divine Diamond
If Haruka charges her steel to a certain point, they becomes diamond. The smaller the steel, the easier it is to do so.
Divine diamond shines its aura brighter than her golden steel. It severely burns any Grimm on touch. They also moderately soothes and heals injuries, and greatly inspire hope within human on touch. Haruka can discharge the energy within divine diamond into an intense beam of her aura as well.
Divine diamond can also levitate, but not as well as black steel.
Clutch Power: Merciless Ruby
Conversely, super charging with negative magic will result in ruby.
Merciless Ruby burns through everything it touches, or doesn't if Haruka decides not to. They can discharge into a highly destructive death laser as well.
Merciless Ruby are extremely easy to manipulate, and allow Haruka to easily dominate the sky. This also makes her nigh-immovable against most assault.
Using negative magic is very bad for one's health. Every doctor would recommend against it.
