Yumei

Yumei is a Sorceress Einherjar in Valkyrie Profile. A young and cheerful mermaid, Yumei is actually half-human and has the power to take on a human form. Her father, the famous shogun (general) Rijun Koh from Hai-Lan participated in a war against the merfolk, but fell overboard during a battle. Everyone assumed he was dead, but he was taken prisoner by the merfolk. Living among them for a time, he came to understand their customs and even fell in love with a mermaid, Yumei's mother. He eventually returned to Hai-Lan and urged for peace with the merfolk. Despite this sign of goodwill, Yumei's birth was deemed a step too far by her people, and her mother and herself were ostracized by the community. When her mother died, no one grieved, and Yumei herself suppressed her pain, not allowing herself to cry. However, she decided to find her father and tell him of her mother's death, hoping that he, at least, would show some emotion. She also hoped to find the Cerulean Lapis, a legendary stone said to grant the wishes of whoever possesses it.
