June Moone is an English, recently graduated archaeologist who is on the cusp of achieving her dreams of Mesoamerican archaeology. On a solo expedition through Peru, she comes across an ancient hidden set of caverns, where she accidentally frees the Enchantress. In doing so, she opened a door that couldn't be closed, and she would have to either adapt or die.
----
* ActionGirl: She becomes one in the first arc, and then is a fully proactive tested one afterwards, enough that she could defeat [[spoiler:Quicksilver in one-on-one combat]].
* ActionSurvivor: At her core, June is just an archaeology major who is caught up in dire circumstances.
* AdaptationalSuperpowerChange: Adapted from a normal human hosting a parasitic witch to a full-fledged sorceress herself.
* AwesomenessByAnalysis: Has a moment of this in her first civil conversation with Pietro. He tells her that he hates how powerful people can act like they're above the law. June figures out that he specifically means Tony because he's the only one who's a resident of Earth who always had wealth and power.
* BarrierWarrior: After [[spoiler:escaping from HYDRA]] and being recruited by the Avengers, she gains force field powers. She becomes very strong and tactile in using them.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: She's a fully decent person, but once HYDRA pushes her too far, she's more than willing to kill in order survive. If you get on her bad side, you'd better hope that she sees something good in you. If not, run away and pray she doesn't spare the time to go after you.
* BleedEmAndWeep: Averted, much to June's horror, when she [[spoiler: kills two HYDRA agents tracking her down]].
* BreakTheCutie: HYDRA puts her through all kinds of hell simply for releasing Enchantress from her prison succesfully.
* BrokenBird: She already starts the story with a freshly deceased loving mother. Being possessed by a horrifying-looking witch (even if she is benevolent), being [[spoiler:relentlessly attacked and eventually abducted by HYDRA]] broke her down so much that [[spoiler:she barely reacted to having to kill two people]]. Fortunately, [[spoiler:[[HealTheCutie this broken bird flies once more, stronger than ever]]]].
* CharacterDevelopment: Originally a normal girl living out her dreams of being a Mesoamerican archaeologist who becomes a full-fledged Avenger, and a very useful one at that.
* ChronicHeroSyndrome: Even when [[spoiler:Enchantress's uncontained magic is sending a catacylsmic storm overhead, she still makes time to visit a crash site of an aerial vehicle nearby, even after reasoning with herself]].

* {{Determinator}}: Nothing will destroy this girl's will to live and survive, not even [[spoiler: falling down a waterfall, or being riddled with bullets]].
* DamselInDistress: [[spoiler:She's kidnapped by HYDRA. Enchantress helps her break out of her cell, and then [[DamselOutofDistress she sneaks and at one point fights to stay away from HYDRA]].]]
* {{Expy}}: Of Lara Croft from ''Videogame/TombRaider2013'', both being young English archaeologists who [[spoiler: get stranded on an island encircled by a storm south of Japan]], take numerous levels in badass, and have a Japanese best friend.
* FlowerMotif: Not at the beginning. [[spoiler:Pietro's birthday gift to her inspires her to take on the sunflower as her personal motif]].

* LightFeminineDarkFeminine: The Light to Enchantress's Dark, both literally and figuratively. June's magic is milky white in theme, and her general and battle outfits are conservatively feminine. Enchantress has a theme of ashen black colors, and her outfit is equally feminine but skimpy.

[[folder:Enchantress / The Ashen Sorceress]]
!!''Enchantress''
!!!'''Birth Name:''' Enchantress
!!!'''Known Alias:''' None
!!!'''Species:''' Cosmic Sorceress
!!!'''Citizenship:''' None
!!!'''Affiliation(s):''' Avengers
!!!'''Likeness Based On:''' Creator/CaraDelevingne
!!!'''Appearances:''' ''Fanfic/TheAshenAvenger''
Enchantress is an ancient sorceress that's existed for hundreds of thousands of years. She was locked away in a totem in Peru for several millennia before June finally freed her accidentally. Finally freed after being sealed away for so long, she finally could achieve her life's goal of continuing to be a guardian of living things.
----
* AchillesHeel: She needs a compatible host in order to function. Without that, or [[spoiler: a proper containment vessel]], her powers grow out of control and destroy everything as her powers are uncontrollably released.
* ActionGirl: A sorceress who can wield elemental magic, use dual long daggers, teleport, etc. She's also a OneWomanArmy.
* AdaptationalHeroism: A GenericDoomsdayVillain in ''Film/SuicideSquad2016''. She's adapted into a three-dimensional heroine.
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Hand in hand with AdaptationalHeroism above, Enchantress can be summed up as an immature AttentionWhore in her debut film. Here, she is a mature, wise, kind if a bit blunt and violent, woman.
* AdaptationalSuperpowerChange: She can walk around independent of June's body for a limited time. Originally, she had to be invoked by June herself saying "Enchantress", but this feature remains in this work.
* AndIMustScream: She was sealed away in a totem for thousands of years. She was fully aware of various happenings in the world, but was nigh-helpless to stop any of it or interfere. All she could do was call out to various hosts over the years in the hopes that they'd find and free her.
* AntiHero: She's a decent person overall, but she takes great pleasure in killing her adversaries...very messily. And she ''will'' kill them unless reined in by June.
* BeatStillMyHeart: As in the original film with Enchantress.
* BeenThereShapedHistory: She taught early humans how to wield sorcery, and taught them to control fire. She also confesses that she brought the Time Stone to Earth as well, entrusting it to said sorcerers.
* BloodKnight: She thoroughly enjoys a good fight.
* BodySurf: A benevolent example. She inhabits various bodies throughout her existence, but they are not enslaved to her will. She treats them more like friends.
* ChekhovsSkill: PlayedForLaughs a little bit with Enchantress's aerokinetic powers when [[spoiler:Sokovia is flying high into the atmosphere above the clouds.]]
--> '''Katana''': ''"We must all be superhuman in some way to be breathing this thin air."''
--> '''Enchantress''': ''"Or you can just thank me for keeping a section of the lower atmosphere up here."''
* CombatPragmatist: Downplayed. Her sheer power means that she can afford not being pragmatic at times. However, she knows electronics are susceptible to electricity, fire is effective against living flesh, and metals will shatter when frozen, and thus use her powers accordingly.
* ContraltoOfDanger: Enchantress's voice is described as deep and booming.
* DangerousForbiddenTechnique: The zenith of her powers are incredibly strong. The only problem is that they can't be concentrated or focused on an individual target. As a result, using her powers at their maximum level causes a lot of collateral damage in the process.
* DarkIsNotEvil: She retains her description in Suicide Squad, with the ashen appearance and all. But she's a heroine in this story. She also [[spoiler:gained immortality from the Dark Dimension, and isn't happy for it either]].
* DeadpanSnarker: Has a few moments, especially during her first introduction to June.
--> '''Enchantress''': ''"Go ahead [June], take the pill. I will still be here."''
* DestructiveSavior: {{Defied}}. If she's close to civilians, she borders on FightsLikeANormal. Magic is a bit less predictable and containable and more destructive than melee and simple telekinesis. More is discussed in DangerousForbiddenTechnique.
* DramaPreservingHandicap: For the first arc, it's via WorfHadTheFlu, as she and June weren't in sync with each other just yet. For the ''Age of Ultron'' arc, it's the fact that her most powerful abilities are [[DangerousForbiddenTechnique extremely unfocused and can cause a lot of collateral damage]].
* DualWielding: With two swords.
* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette: A witch with a cloud of ash following her, ashen stains on her pale skin, black hair, and tribal tattoos. Everyone is unnerved with her appearance the first time they meet her.
* EtTuBrute: [[spoiler:She was sealed away by some of the very sorcerers she trained to wield magic. Also counts as UngratefulBastard]].
* FireIceLightning: Averted. Three of her central elemental powers are this trope, but she can also control Air. She does favor using the former three elements though.
* {{Foil}}: A minor example. Both Enchantress and June are intelligent and strong and seriously-minded women. The one trait that contrasts them is Enchantress's HotBlooded BloodKnight nature compared to June's more demure and cool-headed nature.
* AFormYouAreComfortableWith: Her natural appearance doesn't qualify. She can change her eyes' color and glow to soothe allies and make them feel slightly more comfortable about her.
* GoodIsNotSoft: She might be a benevolent sorceress who protects humanity, but if you hurt June or threaten innocent lives, you'll be lucky if she kills you quickly.
* GodzillaThreshold: She considers her most powerful forms of magic this trope, as they tend to cause severe collateral damage if she uses them.
* GreaterScopeParagon: To the heroic sorcerers of Earth. See BeenThereShapedHistory above.
* HumanoidAbomination: A heroic variant. She appears human, but with an ashen appearance, tribal tattoos, and glowing eyes (that she can change) that make her frightening to others. She isn't above using this trope to her advantage to intimidate enemies.
* LadyOfBlackMagic: An ancient sorceress drawing the powers of the elements and teleportation. Likes to attack especially with lightning magic.
* LadyOfWar: She's also a fully capable swordswoman, wielding dual swords in melee combat. When she doesn't want to risk collateral damage from BlackMagic, she uses her swords. She's not as graceful as Katana is, though.
* LightFeminineDarkFeminine: The Dark to June's Light, both literally and figuratively. June's magic is milky white in theme, and her general and battle outfits are conservatively feminine. Enchantress has a theme of ashen black colors, and her outfit is equally feminine but skimpy.
* {{Lunacy}}: Aside from her host's last name, Enchantress has an outfit that exudes lunar themes, especially the crescent moon on her head. Her appearance exudes darkness, and her non-elemental magic manifests as darkness-themed.
* MagicKnight: Likes wielding dual blades along with her magic.
* MasterSwordswoman: Loves to wield her swords along with her magical abilities.
* MayflyDecemberFriendship: Her immortality does not pass on to her hosts. She expresses deep sorrow over her last host before June found her.
* TheNeedsOfTheMany: She firmly believes in this philosophy. During a conversation with Steve, she uses the nuclear bombings of Japan as an example.
* NightmareFuelStationAttendant: Not to her fellow heroes. But her being a HumanoidAbomination means that she unnerves everyone who sees her for the first time. [[MookHorrorShow She's especially frightening to enemies]].
* NotSoAboveItAll: In Chapter 12, Enchantress displays that she isn't above being a showman and giving a good intimidating performance for personal fun.
* PaintingTheMedium: Her speech is indicated with italicized writing.
* PersonOfMassDestruction: Definitely is one, as she can [[spoiler:inadvertently cause a world-ending storm]]. She prefers to avoid being this, though.
* PhysicalGod: She doesn't treat herself as such, but she was worshipped as one before.
* SadisticChoice: Hasn't made one in the duration of the story, but she fully acknowledges that these exist, and claims to have made many of them before, none of which she is proud of.
* SealedGoodInACan: She was sealed away [[spoiler:thousands of years ago by HYDRA, who have spent millennia watching over her]]. June frees her in the first chapter.
* {{Shapeshifting}}: She adopts the likeness and copies the body shape of her host while retaining her dark appearances. Any memory illusions that she projects will use her current likeness. As such, her original appearance is unknown.
* SuperpowerLottery: Naturally, as she is basically a god. SuperStrength, SuperToughness (very resistant to blunt force impacts even if they hit her), illusion projection, telekinesis, electrokinesis, pyrokinesis, aerokinesis, cryokinesis, teleportation, and more.
* SymbioticPossession: In stark contrast to the DemonicPossession in ''Film/SuicideSquad2016'', Enchantress and June are on relatively good terms with each other.
* TeleportSpam: Her most favored tactic, especially when using her swords. She also extensively uses it for training her allies to anticipate attacks outside of their range of vision.
* TimeAbyss: She's existed for hundreds of thousands of years.
* WorfHadTheFlu: Being recently adapted into June's body means that her magic is relatively weak from the outset. [[spoiler:She suffers numerous defeats against HYDRA early on as a result]].

!!!'''Affiliation(s):''' Avengers
!!!'''Likeness Based On:''' Creator/KarenFukuhara
!!!'''Appearances:''' ''Fanfic/TheAshenAvenger''
Akiko Yamashiro is a woman with incredible talent with a katana called Soultaker, an ancient sword with the ability to trap the souls of those killed with it. She originally was a regular woman with a regular life before her brother-in-law murdered her husband in a fit of jealous rage. Yamashiro took revenge against her brother-in-law, and then took it upon herself to go on a crusade against criminal enterprises across the globe.
----
* ActionGirl: Comes with the territory when you're a modern samurai.
* AdaptationalNameChange: Her original name was Tatsu Yamashiro.
* AdaptationalSuperpowerChange: In ''Film/SuicideSquad2016'', she had no powers. In this, [[spoiler:Soultaker grants her access to a necromancy enhancement power that makes her stronger.]]
* AntiHero: She wanted to make the world a better place by destroying criminal organizations through killing.
* ArmyOfOne: She singlehandedly destroyed numerous powerful criminal organizations before the onset of the story.
* AwesomeMccoolName: Her last name "Yamashiro" means "mountain palace".
* BruiserWithASoftCenter: A fearsome fighter and stoic killer of enemies, but is quite friendly and affable towards her allies, especially June.
* CelibateHeroine: Has had no relationships since the death of her husband.
* CompanionCube: Katana's sword is inanimate, but contains the soul of her deceased husband. She talks to him all the time through the sword.
* CrimeMagnet: Inverted. See TheDreaded.
* TheDreaded: It's mentioned that S.H.I.E.L.D. always knew her general area because criminal families would leave the area in a haste in her presence.
* EmpoweredBadassNormal: Originally, she was a human woman wielding a magical sword. She invokes this trope on occasion, accepting June's enhancement magic. [[spoiler:Until later chapters when she gains access to her sword's necromantic enhancement powers, making her more like a super soldier with an on/off switch, something that Clint nicknames her Death Dealer mode]].
* {{Foil}}: To June. Both women were ripped from their normal lives into the cold world of monsters and criminals against their will and unexpectedly, and became efficient fighters as a result. However, Kiko dove into the criminal world, becoming a ruthless vigilante assassin with a massive body count behind her, and doesn't hesitate to kill her enemies. June wanted nothing to do with the criminal world, and attempted to hide away, unsuccessfully. After the HYDRA events, she becomes a strong fighter who typically disarms and stuns enemies instead of brutally killing them.
* TheGhost: To S.H.I.E.L.D. Akiko was so careful in covering her tracks and staying hidden that S.H.I.E.L.D. could only determine the city she was in, never her exact location or how to find her.
* HeroOfAnotherStory: She has already taken down numerous criminal enterprises, meaning that there's a whole lot more to her story than what's seen on page.
* {{Housewife}}: She was close to becoming this and was perfectly happy with it. Then her brother-in-law murdered her husband and burned down her house. The rest is history.
* HypercompetentSidekick: She's not treated as a sidekick, but she's the tritagonist to Enchantress's deuteragonist and June's protagonist. Nonetheless, she's the most skilled swordswoman among them.
* JumpedAtTheCall: [[spoiler:When offered a place among the Avengers]], though she only jumps in to stay with the only person she still loves, June.
* KatanasAreJustBetter: They are when they're partially made of vibranium and can suck out the souls of its victims.
* KnownOnlyByTheirNickname: Almost no one calls her Akiko, instead calling her Kiko.
* LadyOfWar: A graceful, agile, strong swordswoman. She's the most effective melee fighter in the main cast.
* TheLostLenore: She's still quite hurt over the death of her husband.
* MasterSwordswoman: Incredibly skilled with her sword.
* OldFriend: She and June are these. They hadn't seen each other for a few years before the onset of ''Fanfic/TheAshenAvenger''. They quickly catch up, though.
* PayEvilUntoEvil: She's a vigilante who's made it her life's mission to destroy the global criminal underworld. This includes the Yakuza, Cartels, and Mafias across the world.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: Implied. Kiko's height is never stated, but she's described as being 100% Japanese in ancestry, having "looks and height to match". (Creator/KarenFukuhara is 5 foot 2)
* SpecialPersonNormalName: What's the first name of the deadliest female samurai in the world? Akiko, which means "bright child".

* TookALevelInBadass: She was once a shivering DamselInDistress initially, but through punishment and will after [[spoiler: she's actually abducted by HYDRA]], she becomes more willing to fight back to save herself.
* WeaponOfChoice: None at the outset. By Chapter 17, [[spoiler:she gets a unique MagicStaff]].
* WhiteMage: Her force fields give her [[RedMage offensive capabilities]] but her most central power is healing.

[[folder:Enchantress / The Ashen Sorceress]]
!!''Enchantress''
!!!'''Birth Name:''' Enchantress
!!!'''Known Alias:''' None
!!!'''Species:''' Cosmic Sorceress
!!!'''Citizenship:''' None
!!!'''Affiliation(s):''' Avengers

!!!'''Appearances:''' ''Fanfic/TheAshenAvenger''
Enchantress is an ancient sorceress that's existed for hundreds of thousands of years. She was locked away in a totem in Peru for several millennia before June finally freed her accidentally. Finally freed after being sealed away for so long, she finally could achieve her life's goal of continuing to be a guardian of living things.
----
* AchillesHeel: She needs a compatible host in order to function. Without that, or [[spoiler: a proper containment vessel]], her powers grow out of control and destroy everything as her powers are uncontrollably released.
* ActionGirl: A sorceress who can wield elemental magic, use dual long daggers, teleport, etc. She's also a OneWomanArmy.
* AdaptationalHeroism: A GenericDoomsdayVillain in ''Film/SuicideSquad2016''. She's adapted into a three-dimensional heroine.
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Hand in hand with AdaptationalHeroism above, Enchantress can be summed up as an immature AttentionWhore in her debut film. Here, she is a mature, wise, kind if a bit blunt and violent, woman.
* AdaptationalSuperpowerChange: She can walk around independent of June's body for a limited time. Originally, she had to be invoked by June herself saying "Enchantress", but this feature remains in this work.
* AndIMustScream: She was sealed away in a totem for thousands of years. She was fully aware of various happenings in the world, but was nigh-helpless to stop any of it or interfere. All she could do was call out to various hosts over the years in the hopes that they'd find and free her.
* AntiHero: She's a decent person overall, but she takes great pleasure in killing her adversaries...very messily. And she ''will'' kill them unless reined in by June.
* BeatStillMyHeart: As in the original film with Enchantress.
* BeenThereShapedHistory: She taught early humans how to wield sorcery, and taught them to control fire. She also confesses that she brought the Time Stone to Earth as well, entrusting it to said sorcerers.
* BloodKnight: She thoroughly enjoys a good fight.
* BodySurf: A benevolent example. She inhabits various bodies throughout her existence, but they are not enslaved to her will. She treats them more like friends.
* ChekhovsSkill: PlayedForLaughs a little bit with Enchantress's aerokinetic powers when [[spoiler:Sokovia is flying high into the atmosphere above the clouds.]]
--> '''Katana''': ''"We must all be superhuman in some way to be breathing this thin air."''
--> '''Enchantress''': ''"Or you can just thank me for keeping a section of the lower atmosphere up here."''
* CombatPragmatist: Downplayed. Her sheer power means that she can afford not being pragmatic at times. However, she knows electronics are susceptible to electricity, fire is effective against living flesh, and metals will shatter when frozen, and thus use her powers accordingly.
* ContraltoOfDanger: Enchantress's voice is described as deep and booming.
* DangerousForbiddenTechnique: The zenith of her powers are incredibly strong. The only problem is that they can't be concentrated or focused on an individual target. As a result, using her powers at their maximum level causes a lot of collateral damage in the process.
* DarkIsNotEvil: She retains her description in Suicide Squad, with the ashen appearance and all. But she's a heroine in this story. She also [[spoiler:gained immortality from the Dark Dimension, and isn't happy for it either]].
* DeadpanSnarker: Has a few moments, especially during her first introduction to June.
--> '''Enchantress''': ''"Go ahead [June], take the pill. I will still be here."''
* DestructiveSavior: {{Defied}}. If she's close to civilians, she borders on FightsLikeANormal. Magic is a bit less predictable and containable and more destructive than melee and simple telekinesis. More is discussed in DangerousForbiddenTechnique.
* DramaPreservingHandicap: For the first arc, it's via WorfHadTheFlu, as she and June weren't in sync with each other just yet. For the ''Age of Ultron'' arc, it's the fact that her most powerful abilities are [[DangerousForbiddenTechnique extremely unfocused and can cause a lot of collateral damage]].
* DualWielding: With two swords.
* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette: A witch with a cloud of ash following her, ashen stains on her pale skin, black hair, and tribal tattoos. Everyone is unnerved with her appearance the first time they meet her.
* EtTuBrute: [[spoiler:She was sealed away by some of the very sorcerers she trained to wield magic. Also counts as UngratefulBastard]].
* FireIceLightning: Averted. Three of her central elemental powers are this trope, but she can also control Air. She does favor using the former three elements though.
* {{Foil}}: A minor example. Both Enchantress and June are intelligent and strong and seriously-minded women. The one trait that contrasts them is Enchantress's HotBlooded BloodKnight nature compared to June's more demure and cool-headed nature.
* AFormYouAreComfortableWith: Her natural appearance doesn't qualify. She can change her eyes' color and glow to soothe allies and make them feel slightly more comfortable about her.
* GoodIsNotSoft: She might be a benevolent sorceress who protects humanity, but if you hurt June or threaten innocent lives, you'll be lucky if she kills you quickly.
* GodzillaThreshold: She considers her most powerful forms of magic this trope, as they tend to cause severe collateral damage if she uses them.
* GreaterScopeParagon: To the heroic sorcerers of Earth. See BeenThereShapedHistory above.
* HumanoidAbomination: A heroic variant. She appears human, but with an ashen appearance, tribal tattoos, and glowing eyes (that she can change) that make her frightening to others. She isn't above using this trope to her advantage to intimidate enemies.
* LadyOfBlackMagic: An ancient sorceress drawing the powers of the elements and teleportation. Likes to attack especially with lightning magic.
* LadyOfWar: She's also a fully capable swordswoman, wielding dual swords in melee combat. When she doesn't want to risk collateral damage from BlackMagic, she uses her swords. She's not as graceful as Katana is, though.
* LightFeminineDarkFeminine: The Dark to June's Light, both literally and figuratively. June's magic is milky white in theme, and her general and battle outfits are conservatively feminine. Enchantress has a theme of ashen black colors, and her outfit is equally feminine but skimpy.
* {{Lunacy}}: Aside from her host's last name, Enchantress has an outfit that exudes lunar themes, especially the crescent moon on her head. Her appearance exudes darkness, and her non-elemental magic manifests as darkness-themed.
* MagicKnight: Likes wielding dual blades along with her magic.
* MasterSwordswoman: Loves to wield her swords along with her magical abilities.
* MayflyDecemberFriendship: Her immortality does not pass on to her hosts. She expresses deep sorrow over her last host before June found her.
* TheNeedsOfTheMany: She firmly believes in this philosophy. During a conversation with Steve, she uses the nuclear bombings of Japan as an example.
* NightmareFuelStationAttendant: Not to her fellow heroes. But her being a HumanoidAbomination means that she unnerves everyone who sees her for the first time. [[MookHorrorShow She's especially frightening to enemies]].
* NotSoAboveItAll: In Chapter 12, Enchantress displays that she isn't above being a showman and giving a good intimidating performance for personal fun.
* PaintingTheMedium: Her speech is indicated with italicized writing.
* PersonOfMassDestruction: Definitely is one, as she can [[spoiler:inadvertently cause a world-ending storm]]. She prefers to avoid being this, though.
* PhysicalGod: She doesn't treat herself as such, but she was worshipped as one before.
* SadisticChoice: Hasn't made one in the duration of the story, but she fully acknowledges that these exist, and claims to have made many of them before, none of which she is proud of.
* SealedGoodInACan: She was sealed away [[spoiler:thousands of years ago by HYDRA, who have spent millennia watching over her]]. June frees her in the first chapter.
* {{Shapeshifting}}: She adopts the likeness and copies the body shape of her host while retaining her dark appearances. Any memory illusions that she projects will use her current likeness. As such, her original appearance is unknown.
* SuperpowerLottery: Naturally, as she is basically a god. SuperStrength, SuperToughness (very resistant to blunt force impacts even if they hit her), illusion projection, telekinesis, electrokinesis, pyrokinesis, aerokinesis, cryokinesis, teleportation, and more.
* SymbioticPossession: In stark contrast to the DemonicPossession in ''Film/SuicideSquad2016'', Enchantress and June are on relatively good terms with each other.
* TeleportSpam: Her most favored tactic, especially when using her swords. She also extensively uses it for training her allies to anticipate attacks outside of their range of vision.
* TimeAbyss: She's existed for hundreds of thousands of years.
* WorfHadTheFlu: Being recently adapted into June's body means that her magic is relatively weak from the outset. [[spoiler:She suffers numerous defeats against HYDRA early on as a result]].

[[folder:Akiko Yamashiro / Katana]]
!!''Katana''
!!!'''Birth Name:''' Akiko Yamashiro
!!!'''Known Alias:''' Katana
!!!'''Species:''' Human
!!!'''Citizenship:''' American/Japanese
!!!'''Affiliation(s):''' Avengers
!!!'''Likeness Based On:''' Creator/KarenFukuhara
!!!'''Appearances:''' ''Fanfic/TheAshenAvenger''
Akiko Yamashiro is a woman with incredible talent with a katana called Soultaker, an ancient sword with the ability to trap the souls of those killed with it. She originally was a regular woman with a regular life before her brother-in-law murdered her husband in a fit of jealous rage. Yamashiro took revenge against her brother-in-law, and then took it upon herself to go on a crusade against criminal enterprises across the globe.
----
* ActionGirl: Comes with the territory when you're a modern samurai.
* AdaptationalNameChange: Her original name was Tatsu Yamashiro.
* AdaptationalSuperpowerChange: In ''Film/SuicideSquad2016'', she had no powers. In this, [[spoiler:Soultaker grants her access to a necromancy enhancement power that makes her stronger.]]
* AntiHero: She wanted to make the world a better place by destroying criminal organizations through killing.
* ArmyOfOne: She singlehandedly destroyed numerous powerful criminal organizations before the onset of the story.
* AwesomeMccoolName: Her last name "Yamashiro" means "mountain palace".
* BruiserWithASoftCenter: A fearsome fighter and stoic killer of enemies, but is quite friendly and affable towards her allies, especially June.
* CelibateHeroine: Has had no relationships since the death of her husband.
* CompanionCube: Katana's sword is inanimate, but contains the soul of her deceased husband. She talks to him all the time through the sword.
* CrimeMagnet: Inverted. See TheDreaded.
* TheDreaded: It's mentioned that S.H.I.E.L.D. always knew her general area because criminal families would leave the area in a haste in her presence.
* EmpoweredBadassNormal: Originally, she was a human woman wielding a magical sword. She invokes this trope on occasion, accepting June's enhancement magic. [[spoiler:Until later chapters when she gains access to her sword's necromantic enhancement powers, making her more like a super soldier with an on/off switch, something that Clint nicknames her Death Dealer mode]].
* {{Foil}}: To June. Both women were ripped from their normal lives into the cold world of monsters and criminals against their will and unexpectedly, and became efficient fighters as a result. However, Kiko dove into the criminal world, becoming a ruthless vigilante assassin with a massive body count behind her, and doesn't hesitate to kill her enemies. June wanted nothing to do with the criminal world, and attempted to hide away, unsuccessfully. After the HYDRA events, she becomes a strong fighter who typically disarms and stuns enemies instead of brutally killing them.
* TheGhost: To S.H.I.E.L.D. Akiko was so careful in covering her tracks and staying hidden that S.H.I.E.L.D. could only determine the city she was in, never her exact location or how to find her.
* HeroOfAnotherStory: She has already taken down numerous criminal enterprises, meaning that there's a whole lot more to her story than what's seen on page.
* {{Housewife}}: She was close to becoming this and was perfectly happy with it. Then her brother-in-law murdered her husband and burned down her house. The rest is history.
* HypercompetentSidekick: She's not treated as a sidekick, but she's the tritagonist to Enchantress's deuteragonist and June's protagonist. Nonetheless, she's the most skilled swordswoman among them.
* JumpedAtTheCall: [[spoiler:When offered a place among the Avengers]], though she only jumps in to stay with the only person she still loves, June.
* KatanasAreJustBetter: They are when they're partially made of vibranium and can suck out the souls of its victims.
* KnownOnlyByTheirNickname: Almost no one calls her Akiko, instead calling her Kiko.
* LadyOfWar: A graceful, agile, strong swordswoman. She's the most effective melee fighter in the main cast.
* TheLostLenore: She's still quite hurt over the death of her husband.
* MasterSwordswoman: Incredibly skilled with her sword.
* OldFriend: She and June are these. They hadn't seen each other for a few years before the onset of ''Fanfic/TheAshenAvenger''. They quickly catch up, though.
* PayEvilUntoEvil: She's a vigilante who's made it her life's mission to destroy the global criminal underworld. This includes the Yakuza, Cartels, and Mafias across the world.

* SpecialPersonNormalName: What's the first name of the deadliest female samurai in the world? Akiko, which means "bright child".
* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: The {{Tomboy}} to June's GirlyGirl.
