Akami is a freelancer who works as a delivery person with Qilin LCC.
Akami can be a little too much. Loud and boisterous,  she loves to have a good time and has little restraint; she's not above cracking a crude joke or two either. Everything she does has a rough edge to it: patting someone's back a little too hard or making a little too much noise, though it all comes with friendly intent. She also focuses on the present; she's quick to forgive and move on from the past, and of course that goes for herself too (though if someone's clearly still angry at her, then she'll probably give them space). She's also not huge on planning for the future. Though she's resourceful and can adapt to a number of situations by making the most of what she has, if she can't adapt then she'll just make herself scarce. Usually, these are social situations where she can see that she's causing problems and her presence is unwelcome.

An immigrant from Ryu-chuan. Akami and Otoro were both trained in eisa, a traditional dance style, with her sticking with it long enough to become a chondara. When Otoro moved out to Topaz City with Akami's encouragement, she stayed behind; half to look after their family, and half because she didn't have any desire for change herself. However, regardless of her wishes, things did take a turn. Akami had been involved with a small-time gang made up of friends she had met through eisa, and they weren't happy with the way the island was changing. Companies were making their stake and replacing local businesses - and so they started to vandalize and damage new construction sites and buildings. Eventually they were caught and disbanded. Though her stint in jail was only a couple months, she found herself blacklisted from most local sources of employment, leaving Otoro to be their family's main source of income. She was able to do a few delivery jobs here and there on her bike, but not for much. Akami started visiting Topaz City after Otoro moved and started working in Sugar Haven, following in his footsteps but not committing to any one place.
After the barrier around Topaz City started to expand, Otoro ran into Akami in Valeea, despite the fact that she was supposed to be with their family. They talked and caught up with each other, and with the establishment of the Guilds, he guided her on attuning her new Topaz. Thanks to Akami's current job at a delivery company named Qilin LCC, she's constantly in and out of Topaz City. Unfortunately thanks to the barrier, they haven't been able to contact their parents.

• Akami and Otoro were part of an eisa team in their youth. Akami stuck around long enough to become a chondara and has skills in entertaining people.
• Her motorbike is her main mode of transportation, and she can be pretty reckless with it.
• Quite skilled on the grill in a group setting.
• Her hat works like a frisbee (but also a boomerang in that it comes back); it spins fast enough in the air to cut, but slows down as it comes back to her.
