Powers

» Altered Perception: When Hiyoko is in distress, and doesn't want to see something or is trying to reject the reality in front of her, her perception of whatever is causing her stress will transform into something that appears to be less dangerous. A ferocious bear charging at her would, in her eyes, become a teddy bear approaching for a hug. This does not physically change what it really is; the bear in question would still be a very real danger, capable of causing very real harm. In addition, this power does not affect those around Hiyoko, and is not something that Hiyoko can control.
» Time Stop: For a period of 10 seconds, Hiyoko is able to stop a single living being within 10 feet of her, as long as she is facing them; she can't stop something coming up behind her, and anything larger than 7 feet will be immune to the effects. Mechanical beasts are also unaffected. Time will essentially stop ticking for them, keeping them frozen in place and unaware of anything happening around them, while anyone else is free to attack or protect them. There is a 5 minute cooldown.

Character name: Hiyoko Saionji
Age: 17ish; it's vague
Canon: Danganronpa 2/Danganronpa 3
Canonpoint: Episode 10 of the Zetsubou-hen anime, as they are all frozen in place watching Nanami's execution.

Background: Link~!

There are a few things to note, given Hiyoko's canonpoint. This Hiyoko Saionji has not experienced any of the events of SDR2, as the game took place almost entirely within a Virtual Reality world with the purpose of rewriting the memories of her class, having been tainted with Junko Enoshima's despair. While they are essentially the same person, with very similar memories and experiences, this Hiyoko does have some key differences that I will make clear in her personality.

Personality: As the Ultimate Traditional Dancer and heir to the Saionji clan, Hiyoko grew up with all of her needs tended to. She undoubtedly ate well, dressed in beautiful clothes, and was engrossed in Japanese culture at it's finest. Her performances took her overseas countless times, and she became extremely popular; both with older men and younger girls. Certainly a girl such as her would walk with grace and treat everyone with the demure nature befitting of a young Japanese girl, correct?

Absolutely wrong. Hiyoko is a spoiled brat who scoffs at foreign cultures and commoners, at the same time preying on any sort of weakness she sees in a person to bully them mercilessly. She manipulates people with her self proclaimed cute looks and supposed crocodile tears, stringing people along to sympathize with her and promise her something she wants before she stops and laughs at how gullible they are to believe her. Hiyoko isn't afraid to speak her mind, and the last thing she cares about is if she hurts someone else's feelings. She considers it a favor!

To no surprise, Hiyoko does not make friends easily; she sees friendship as a bunch of weaklings plotting together. And especially so, she thinks that because she is of noble blood, no one else is worthy to be anything but her slave. This may seem excessively cruel, there is a very important part of her upbringing to know.

She hates being a part of the Saionji clan because of their cruel nature. The clan was jealous of Hiyoko because despite her father only marrying into the clan, Hiyoko was born with such talent in dancing that her granny designated her heir to the clan. Sabotage was a normal thing while growing up, and if everything she claims is a joke during her Free Time Events is true, the girl was targeted constantly. Needles in her shoes, dead mice, dropping lights during her performances, and even poisoning her food were all things she dealt with, and to top it all off she wasn't allowed to see her own parents. It's easy to see that her bullying and manipulation is a result of the treatment she dealt with--she had to find some way to cope.

Thankfully, the Hiyoko Saionji of Danganronpa 3 isn't nearly as insufferable. Because of her time spent forming friendships with the 77th Class of Hope's Peak Academy, Hiyoko was able to blossom into a slightly less horrible person. She's devoted to her class, having gone through numerous trials together: the murder of a close friend from another class, a very real bomb threat that led to their teacher and a fellow student being suspended, and the growing resentment of the public towards their school. Nearly all of this was facilitated by one very important Class Rep, Chiaki Nanami. Chiaki was the binding force that brought her class together, and Hiyoko was no exception to this. She remains a bully who holds immense disdain for 98% of the world, but when she cares about someone, she tries to show it as best she can... it just usually involves a lot of insults.

Wish: "Please... I don't want to see this! Make it stop!"

Frozen in place because of sheer terror and plot bullshit, Hiyoko and her classmates are stuck watching a live broadcast as Junko Enoshima leads their beloved classmate through a brutal punishment game. They are powerless to help her as she tries to navigate a labyrinth of deadly traps, and it ultimately ends in her death. Overcome with despair, Hiyoko cries out her wish. Nanami had brought the entire class together and is the very definition of a cinnamon roll, so to see her in so much agony is heart wrenching. Hiyoko's wish is selfless despite her generally selfish nature, and born out of an intense desire to save Nanami.

Kyuubey is more than happy to help out, and whisks Hiyoko away. The result of her wish is that Nanami survives, but she is pulled into Junko's plan and becomes SHSL Despair along with the rest of her class. Hiyoko Saionji is no longer a part of that world.

Passive ability: Altered Perception: When Hiyoko is in distress, and doesn't want to see something or is trying to reject the reality in front of her, her perception of whatever is causing her stress will transform into something that appears to be less dangerous. A ferocious bear charging at her would, in her eyes, become a teddy bear approaching for a hug. This does not physically change what it really is; the bear in question would still be a very real danger, capable of causing very real harm. In addition, this power does not affect those around Hiyoko, and is not something that Hiyoko can control.

This relates pretty directly to the first part of Hiyoko's wish. She doesn't want to see what's going on, nor does she want to accept it... so now she won't have to truly see it. Clearly, this could never backfire on her in any shape or form!

Active ability: Time Stop: For a period of 10 seconds, Hiyoko is able to stop a single living being within 10 feet of her, as long as she is facing them; she can't stop something coming up behind her, and anything larger than 7 feet will be immune to the effects. Mechanical beasts are also unaffected. Time will essentially stop ticking for them, keeping them frozen in place and unaware of anything happening around them, while anyone else is free to attack or protect them. There is a 5 minute cooldown.

The way this relates to her wish is fairly self explanatory; she wished to stop what was happening in front of her, and now she will be able to.
