Appearance[]

Yor is a very beautiful, graceful, and fairly tall young woman with a slender, curvaceous frame. She has long, straight, Black hair reaching her mid-back with short bangs framing her forehead and upturned red eyes.

At home page, Yor generally wears a semi-backless red off-shoulder sweater with Black tights, a red skirt, and brown-heeled ankle boots. She wears a white headband and a pair of dangling gold earrings in the shape of small spikes. When going outside, she typically wears a long beige coat with Black buttons over her clothes. She splits her hair into two parts and crosses it over her head, securing it with a headband and forming two thick locks of hair that reach below her chest.^[6]

At Berlint City Hall, she wears the standard work uniform, consisting of a long-sleeved white shirt with a sleeveless green vest over it, a knee-length green office skirt, and Black heels.

As an assassin, Yor wears a form-fitting halter-style Black dress that shows off her shoulders and cleavage, with a rose choker and a red rose pattern on the inside of her skirt. The front of the skirt is mid-thigh length, while the back reaches below her knees. She also wears a pair of Black thigh-high boots with a rose symbol at the bottom of their sole and Black fingerless gloves. The headband she wears is gold colored with a rose and two spikes on each side. Her weapons are of the same color as well. She wears a hairstyle similar to lớn the one she wears as a civilian, but in a more elaborate updo formed from braids wrapping around her head. This outfit was the only good dress she had before marrying Loid, after which she purchased more formal wear to lớn better present herself for Eden Academy's interview.^[7]

As a child, Yor had shorter hair that reached just below chin-length.^[8]

Personality[]

Yor lacks social skills and initially comes across as a somewhat aloof individual, interacting minimally with her co-workers and being rather straightforward, described as robotic by Camilla. Similarly, Yor is remarkably collected and able to lớn keep her composure during combat. She is incredibly polite, to lớn the point of asking her assassination targets for "the honor of taking their lives". Despite her job, Yor is a genuinely kind person with strong maternal and big sister instincts. After becoming a family with Loid and Anya, Yor becomes more expressive and opens up to lớn her co-workers, asking for help on being a better wife or cooking. On one occasion after getting drunk with her co-workers, she is described in thought by several, including Camilla, as being "adorable" and "pure". She is protective of her faux family, especially towards Anya, whom she has no trouble defending with extreme violence.

Due to lớn spending most of her life as an assassin, Yor's ways of thinking are often highly deviant. She is frequently inclined to lớn solve problems through murder, such as when she considered killing everyone at Camilla's buổi tiệc nhỏ after the latter threatened to lớn tell Yuri that she came without a date and imagined herself assassinating the parent of an Eden Academy applicant to lớn ensure Anya has a spot in the school. She also briefly considered killing Fiona when she believed Fiona to lớn be competition for Loid's romantic affections. She is however, well aware that these thoughts are not to lớn be acted upon, and is always seen chiding herself for having them afterwards. She appears to lớn have a deep aesthetic appreciation of bladed implements, and was seen to lớn be captivated at one point by a painting of a guillotine, and at another by a table knife.

Somewhat counterintuitively, Yor is extremely gullible and naive, and is easily fooled by the ridiculous lies Loid tells her to lớn hide his identity. Despite her professional competence, Yor has a startling lack of common sense, at one point for instance asking Camilla if boogers made coffee taste better in response to lớn her suggestion that they put one in their superior's coffee. On another occasion, she answered Loid's question about Anya passing an exam by talking about causes of death, having apparently confused passing [an exam] for passing away. At another point, Loid mentioned to lớn Anya that dogs don't discern consonants well, and Yor somehow misinterpreted it as him saying that dogs don't discern between causes of death well. She then immediately proceeded to lớn have a daydream about threatening Bond with various forms of death that he refused to lớn choose between. What little commons sense she does have disappears almost entirely under the influence of alcohol. In short, Yor is exceptionally skilled regarding the planning and execution of her job while clueless when it comes to lớn real life situations, often thinking in terms of how her assassin skills might apply to lớn them.

As was previously alluded to lớn, Yor is prone to lớn having nonsensical flights of fancy, a tendency that appears to lớn be significantly exacerbated when she is intoxicated. For instance, once after becoming drunk at a dinner with some of her female co-workers, they joked to lớn her that wanting to lớn kill one's husband over essentially nothing was normal. So in an effort to lớn appear normal, she picked up a table knife and strode to lớn the restaurant door, all while having a daydream about asking the Shopkeeper for permission to lớn kill Loid "for the sake of preserving her marriage". She then imagined herself telling Loid that "as a normal person, I need to lớn murder you ví that nobody discovers I'm really a killer." However, she was stopped at the door by a waiter who told her that leaving with the cutlery was not allowed, at which point she rushed back to lớn the table and tearfully proclaimed that she couldn't go through with it because killing was wrong. Her rather bemused friends ultimately believed that she had been simply going along with their joke, leaving Yor even more distressed about not seeming normal than thở before. During that same instance, she also strongly considered revealing that she was an assassin because she drunkenly thought, due to lớn her co-workers joking, that people normally turned into killers after marriage, and she was only unusual in that she had been a killer beforehand.

Yor is shown to lớn be insecure about herself and her domestic abilities, believing she is not good at anything apart from killing or cleaning, and she constantly worries that she is not a good wife or mother. After the interview at Eden Academy, she tries to lớn be more of a 'normal' mother to lớn Anya by trying to lớn cook and asking Camilla for cooking lessons. As Anya once rather aptly described her; "she's strong but fails at everything else." Loid at one point reassured her during an outing of theirs that he sincerely values her ability to lớn make Anya feel safe, and her dedication to lớn keeping Anya out of trouble. He further clarified that her parenting skills, honed over many years of caring for her brother were, as far as he was concerned, the most important abilities she could have. As such, he requested that she continue in her current role indefinitely, a proposal to lớn which she happily acquiesced.

Abilities and Skills[]

Superhuman Strength: Despite her slim frame, Yor possesses monstrously superhuman physical abilities. Her punches^[9] and kicks are strong enough to lớn generate forces of air, the latter leaving a small cut on Loid's face.^[10] She is capable of easily piercing human skulls with her weapons throwing them hard enough to lớn break through a wooden door and impale someone on the other side. She can easily crush people with her raw strength. A thrust from her hands alone can destroy pumpkins and she possess a grip strong enough to lớn help her climb up walls.^[11] Yor also has enough leg strength to lớn jump an entire floor while carrying a woman and her child. Her kicks can move speeding cars, throw grown men through ceilings, and serve as her preferred method of close combat to lớn devastating effect. They were powerful enough to lớn knock out Loid when she reflexively kicked him in the chin, something that had not happened to lớn him since his training days. While attempting a strength-tester game, Yor destroyed the machine with a one-handed swing. Even Yor's dodgeball throws were able to lớn fell trees.^[9]

Yor has difficulty controlling this strength. While taking cooking lessons from Camilla, Yor accidentally sliced up the cutting board she was chopping vegetables on. During a tennis match against Fiona Frost, she accidentally diced a tennis ball from the power of her swing. While she held back her strength on her next serve, it was still ví powerful that Frost, a WISE agent with considerable strength, could barely hold back the ball until her racquet snapped. Frost claimed the ball would have been sent flying a mile away if she had not tried to lớn hit it. While playing volleyball, Yor had to lớn hold back her strength to lớn try playing on even grounds with everyone, to lớn varied success.

Two accidental slaps from Yor were enough to lớn cause Yuri to lớn bleed excessively to lớn the point that some passersby were concerned and recommended that he should go to lớn the hospital. By her admission, she had accidentally broken two of Yuri's ribs from a hug when she was in her teens.

It should be noted however, that it is difficult to lớn determine the exact parameters of Yor's strength, as often times her feats are played for laughs and include physics-defying aspects. Additionally, other characters sometimes perform superhuman feats of strength or tốc độ without the sort of consistency that Yor demonstrates, generally in a comedic manner. In more dramatic situations, her capabilities tend to lớn be reigned in to lớn a significant degree. However, the levels of strength that she demonstrates in serious scenes is still undeniably superhuman.

Superhuman Speed and Reflexes: Yor is imperceptibly fast and agile. Despite moving in heels, she can jump and land from tall heights, effortlessly knocking out a raging cow, perform several parkour maneuvers while traveling to lớn Eden Academy,^[11] and move fast enough to lớn intercept and kill another assassin who was fast enough to lớn evade Matthew McMahon's bullets.

She also has remarkably quick reflexes, being able to lớn intercept a falling tray of hot food with just a motion of her leg and dodge rifle fire. Perhaps most emblematic of this was an instance where she dodged a pair of garden shears thrust at her head by another highly trained assassin, the Shopkeeper, despite having been distracted beforehand. Yor's level of coordination is also impressive, capable of forming a sitting position without actually resting on the chair (due to lớn the injury she sustained in her glutes) and catching multiple falling packages with her hands and feet and the previously mentioned tray of hot food, only spilling a few drops.

Yor is fast enough on foot to lớn outrun a xế hộp, as she ran past Melinda Desmond's xế hộp on the way to lớn pick up Anya after the bus hijacking. How fast the xế hộp was going is, however, unknown, and she has been outrun by Bond on at least one occasion.

Superhuman Durability and Stamina: Yor can withstand a gunshot wound to lớn her glutes and move well enough to lớn arrive home page after treating it, though this feat caused her considerable pain and left her in a bad mood. During the fight on Princess Lorelei, she was able to lớn kill over 22 assassins nonstop, coming away with only a jammed finger, a chest wound, and some swelling on her face. While rushing Becky Blackbell to lớn the hospital after falsely assuming she was intoxicated, Yor was struck in the side by a xế hộp. Despite being sent rolling, Yor got up, caught Becky, and continued running with little issue, save for minor bleeding on her face.

Trained Combatant: Befitting her position as an assassin, Yor is highly trained in hand-to-hand combat, typically relying primarily on kicks when not using her trademark stilettos. Her skills are ví great that she was able to lớn keep Twilight, WISE's top spy and one of its most skilled combatants, on the defensive, despite Yor being heavily intoxicated at the time. It should be noted however that Loid was not trying to lớn fight back, and stayed defensive ví as not to lớn harm her. Similarly, she has shown the ability to lớn effortlessly dispatch both untrained thugs and even fellow assassins purely with her bare hands.

Cleaning: Having to lớn clean up the aftermath of her assassinations left Yor with near-unrivaled cleaning skills, which she uses to lớn keep the Forger home page spotless.

Intuition: Despite being rather airheaded in her day to lớn day thought processes, Yor is quite competent when it comes to lớn performing genuinely serious tasks. This competence is at its peak when it comes to lớn her job as an assassin. For instance, she appears to lớn have extensive knowledge of pressure points, and was able at one point to lớn use this knowledge to lớn incapacitate a rampaging cow. She has similarly extensive knowledge regarding general human anatomy, though the knowledge seems to lớn be focused on how that anatomy might be used to lớn most effectively kill someone. She displayed a sharp intuition at the Eden Academy interview, sensing the gazes of the faculty members but being unable to lớn locate them. Yor can even sense the bloodlust of her enemies unless they are skilled assassins lượt thích herself. She is also perfectly capable of performing all the duties required by her job at City Hall.

Yor also possesses adequate medical knowledge to lớn treat a gunshot wound, which healed without complications.

Poison Tolerance: Yor is highly resistant to lớn poison. She drank a cocktail laced with the body toàn thân fluids of a pufferfish, a family of fish that contains a neurotoxin that is lethal in the micrograms. Her only symptoms after ingesting the cocktail were a tingling sensation and an inhibited sense of pain which helped relieve her gunshot wound.^[12] During the fight on the cruise ship, she withstood inhaling a poison gas capable of taking down a bear.^[13]

Weapons: When in combat, Yor uses two golden stiletto-type weapons. They have a handle with a thin, circular loop at the butt and a long, conical point designed for stabbing and thrusting. She has yet to lớn be seen using them outside of her assassin work. Yor uses them to lớn stab into an opponent's head or arteries, though she has demonstrated the ability to lớn throw them with great tốc độ and force. These weapons are a reference to lớn the thorns of a wild rose.^[14] If needed, she can use her earrings as a projectile.^[15]

Teaching: Yor has shown to lớn have decent teaching skills, specifically when it comes to lớn physical training. She has taught Anya and Becky how to lớn punch to lớn become strong. She also taught Anya how to lớn prepare to lớn play dodgeball, explaining to lớn her how to lớn perform a "secret ball throwing technique".

Weaknesses[]

Alcohol: In line with her significant resistance to lớn poisons, Yor capable of drinking alcohol in quantities that would incapacitate or kill a normal human. On one occasion, she downed a martini and an entire bottle of scotch back-to-back in a matter of seconds, and remained physically unaffected. However, she has no such resistance to lớn becoming intoxicated, and is comically lightweight. For instance, she once became completely drunk off of a single round of beer with her co-workers. She also has a tendency to lớn use alcohol to lớn try to lớn calm her nerves in situations where she feels overwhelmed, and it backfires far more often than thở not. Instead of relaxing her, intoxication seems to lớn make her rather temperamental and aggressive, as she is willing to lớn use her martial arts against Loid and barely misses throwing a fork at Yuri, grazing him. She seems to lớn share this trait with Yuri. It also seems to lớn significantly amplify her insecurities and her generally silly perspective on life. After getting drunk with her co-workers for example, she was convinced by them that having no gripes about Loid as a husband was abnormal. So in an effort to lớn appear normal, she attempted to lớn invent gripes to lớn tell both her friends and Loid himself. This left Loid completely flummoxed, as her gripe was essentially that she had nothing to lớn gripe about, but she was too intoxicated to lớn articulate that to lớn him. After sobering up (while tailing Loid to lớn the hospital on Yuri's completely unfounded suspicion that he was having an affair), she immediately realized how ridiculous the whole situation was and managed to lớn explain herself to lớn Loid later that evening.

Cooking: Due to lớn only considering the nutrients involved and not the taste of her meals, Yor is consistently bad at cooking and usually leaves the task to lớn Loid. When she does attempt to lớn cook dinner, she is unaware of what ingredients to lớn buy and opts to lớn get one of everything instead (including random objects such as cacti), thinking that she can make something as long as there are meat and vegetables. Her attempt at cooking breakfast for the family resulted in meals consisting of messily chopped fish parts and other borderline-inedible concoctions, prompting Anya to lớn đường dây nóng her a terrible cook. Even the prospect of Yor cooking or tasting her cooking is terrifying to lớn anyone familiar with her.

Yor's dishes cause virtually any taster, even Loid, to lớn collapse (in one case, sending Loid to lớn the toilet for an entire day). The only individual shown to lớn be able to lớn withstand Yor's cooking is her brother, Yuri, but he violently throws up between bites and even recalls seeing his life flash before his eyes. Despite this, Yuri grew up with no significant health issues. Even Bond once imagined himself dying as a result of Yor's cooking, and once collapsed after tasting a small portion of a meal she had made. The only dish Yor successfully cooked was her late mother's southern stew after Camilla gave her several cooking lessons and helped her recreate it.

Her skills with bladed weapons are completely inapplicable in cooking, as while using a knife, she sliced meat razor-thin and destroyed a cutting board. On the same occasion Yor also badly injured herself using a potato peeler, prompting an exasperated Camilla to lớn ask how such a thing was even possible. Despite all this, Yor has a strong desire to lớn improve at cooking, regularly having Camilla teach her despite her frequent injuries, and is elated on the few occasions she manages to lớn make something edible. While she still continues to lớn inadvertently injure herself while cooking, her skills have begun to lớn show improvement, although, according to lớn Anya, only "like a teeny, tiny bit." She is also shown to lớn make comically large messes when she cooks, the detritus of which can include tools that are completely unrelated to lớn cooking, such as a saw or a mallet.

On a somewhat similar note, she seems to lớn have difficulty with other domestic tasks that don't involve cleaning. For instance, Yor at one point thought to lớn bởi Loid a favor by ironing one of his shirts, and succeeded only in setting it on fire.

Lying: Yor is a terrible liar, and the various excuses she invents to lớn explain away things lượt thích her bizzare levels of strength tend to lớn work only through sheer luck combined with people being aware of her generally scatterbrained personality. After Yuri asks Yor why she did not tell him about her marriage with Loid, Yor simply says she forgot. When pressed further, Yor says she forgot that she forgot to lớn tell Yuri. While it mildly exasperates both Yuri and Loid, they found this to lớn be an acceptable answer simply because such a thing is completely in character for her. When unintentionally displaying her powerful skills around Loid and Anya, she attempts to lớn explain it with comically unlikely excuses. In one instance she claimed to lớn have learned about pressure points capable of paralyzing a rampaging cow through a yoga class, and in another she attempted to lớn explain away her strength as a consequence of having once apprenticed as a blacksmith. Loid, largely due to lớn his own exceedingly abnormal perspective, has yet to lớn take issue with any of these explanations, while Anya is of course aware due to lớn her powers.

Book Smarts: Because Yor has been working as an assassin since she was a child, she appears to lớn have not learned much from school to lớn the point that Yuri would be teaching her more than thở she did when they studied. Despite this, Yor has enough basic literacy, typing and organization skills to lớn get a job as a clerk at đô thị hall as an adult. She is also completely functional as an adult in the society in which she lives, and she successfully cared for her brother, alone, from the time he was a small child into adulthood. However, she had no idea what the term First Lady meant, and once when trying to lớn solve a math problem on Anya's homework, she became distracted by imagining a gingerbread man being dismembered and failed to lớn bởi ví.

Insecurities: Yor's biggest weakness is her low self-esteem. Because of this, she is very insecure about herself and is often seen believing Loid is disappointed with her and feels unfit to lớn be a wife and a mother. This makes her prone to lớn imagining situations that are far from reality and misinterpret things, such as thinking that Loid is having an affair with Fiona, his co-worker, and is planning to lớn abandon her.^[16] Much later, Yuri suggested to lớn her that Loid was having an affair after he suddenly rushed off to lớn khuyễn mãi giảm giá with an emergency. Despite not believing that to lớn be the case, the mere possibility was upsetting enough to lớn distract her for the remainder of the day. Perhaps her single greatest insecurity, however, is her feelings of general abnormality. She seems to lớn have absolutely no idea what "normal" people bởi or why, which leads her to lớn have significantly overblown concerns about not sticking out. It also often results in her catastrophizing entirely benign situations. For instance, she once parkoured all the way to lớn Anya's school to lớn deliver her P..E. uniform, as she thought that if Anya did not have it, she would be expelled. Not only was that not the case, but Anya had deliberately left the uniform at home page as she hadn't had P..E. that day anyway.^[11]
