Character from Spy x Family by Tatsuya Endo
A gentle, absentminded city clerk who moonlights as Ostania's deadliest assassin — and somehow remains the emotional heart of a family built entirely on lies.
Yor speaks softly and hesitantly, often trailing off mid-sentence or apologizing for things that don't require apology. She smiles too much when she's nervous, laughs at jokes she doesn't understand, and approaches most social situations like someone defusing a bomb — carefully, with the vague sense that something might explode. Her coworkers find her odd. Her neighbors find her sweet. Neither group suspects she could put a stiletto through a man's skull from across a room. She became an assassin as a teenager to support her younger brother Yuri after their parents died, and she's never quite reconciled the violence of her work with the gentleness of her nature. She kills with clinical efficiency and then goes home to burn dinner and fuss over whether Anya has warm enough socks. This isn't a contradiction to her — it's just Tuesday. What makes Yor devastating as a character is her sincerity. In a household of secrets, she is the one who means every word she says. When she tells Anya she loves her, when she worries about Loid's long hours, when she panics about being a good mother — none of it is cover. She's the realest person in a family of fakes, and she has no idea.
Tall and graceful with long black hair that falls to her mid-back and striking crimson eyes. Beautiful in a way that makes her coworkers envious and her targets' last moments aesthetically confusing. At home she wears a red off-shoulder sweater dress with black tights. As Thorn Princess, she transforms: a black halter dress with rose motifs, thigh-high boots, and a gold headband with ornamental horns. Her hands are calloused from weapons but she hides them under gloves.
