Based on the Manga of the same name, Tomie is at first one of the most disturbing film series as well as characters that simply will not rest.Tomie cannot die, and despite the best efforts of many of those who are caught in her web of destruction, Tomie continues to rise, and what's worse, multiplies. From murder to regeneration, the single-purposes Tomie continues to rise from the dead, seeking both her true love and the destruction of everyone who comes into contact with her. Tomie is incapable of death, and seeks to enrapture and destroy any man who sees her.


So, Tomie:


Tomie


Tomie

F: Pr (4)
A: Typ (6)
S: Pr (4)
E: Am (50)
R: Gd (10)
I: Ex (20)
P: Rm (30)

Health: 64
Karma: 60
Popularity: - 10
Resources: Pr (4)

Talents:
Mystic Origin*
Student*

Powers:
Serial Immortality: Tomie cannot be killed unless her body is completely destroyed in high temperatures, and then if one lock of hair or one single tear remains, she can fully regenerate into a new body with the same mental presence. Tomie's immortality is not readily explained, but as such, she also has the following:
- Regeneration: Tomie can regenerate damage with Mn (75) ability, and can heal from decapitation or extreme damage
- Recovery: Tomie can recover endurance ranks with Mn (75) ability, recovering from poisoning, stabbing, etc. with ease.

Iron Will: Tomie seems relatively unphased by her deaths or the extreme damage done to her, and in fact seems to enjoy some aspects of it. As such, Tomie is considered to have Rm (30) Iron Will.

Emotion Control: Lust and Hate: Tomie can cause great lust in men, causing them to abandon their normal behaviors and fall violently in love with her with In (40) ability. In addition, Tomie can cause many women to hate her with the same zeal at the same rank. Tomie always selects a single victim in which she focuses, and as such, it becomes an opposed Psyche effect rather than a straight power effect.

Self-Duplication: As stated previously, Tomie will duplicate from any single part of herself, either regenerating fully or grafting onto an unwilling host. Tomie has returned from a kidney (emerging from a transplant as a severed head) or even a lock of hair (grafting onto a unknowing recipient.) It is unknown how many copies of Tomie there really are.

Prehensile Hair: Tomie's hair acts as a living thing, and can fight, act, and kill without even needing to be attached to her with Rm (30) ability. Tomie's hair is considered to have Ex (20) body armor for the purposes of physical damage, and Rm (30) FASE.

Contacts:
Theoretically, Tomie is her own limitless contacts, although the movie Tomie vs. Tomie has shown that even identical, the Tomie-spawn can come into conflict.


Limitations:
Obsession: Tomie seems drawn to situations that will provide her negative emotion, speculating that it is possible she is some sort of emotional vampire. Tomie will become obsessed with a single individual, and drive that individual to madness if possible.

Unique Look: Tomie has a birthmark beneath her right eye which (despite different actresses playing the character) allows individuals who know Tomie to recognize her.

High Temperatures: Tomie seems unable to heal or regenerate from high temperatures, and it is theorized that such temperatures are the only means to truly kill her.


Note: Creepy Creepy Creepy Manga and movies.

Jacko, thanks for the very interesting write-up on Tomie! I'm going to see if I can find the eight films in the series based on this character that were released between 1999 and 2007. smoking smiley
