Development
//
Personality
Isla is an extremely energetic graffiti artist based in South America. Though she lives a life of solitude, she has developed a deep and trusting relationship with her phantom hands, Amanda. However, when push comes to shove, Isla is no joke as she uses Amanda and her spray cans to mix up whoever gets in her way. She has a bright and cheery personality, but for some reason, she seems to really have it out for Shun'ei, out of jealousy of having more positive adult friends than her, despite both were cursed with Amplified Specters. Despite her hatred towards adults, Isla respect few of them who are well known and remain positive at heart to everyone else, such as Terry Bogard and even King of Dinosaurs' former face persona, Tizoc.
This defiant exterior serves as a defense mechanism against a world she feels has marginalized her, leading her to initially view Shun'ei’s life through a lens of resentment. However, after facing the threat of Otoma=Raga and being saved by Shun'ei from the void, Isla’s walls begin to crumble. She recognizes that they are not rivals, but two of a kind. Her jealousy transforms into a burgeoning sense of kinship, leading her to abandon her solitude. By the end of the fifteenth tournament, she shows a much softer side, actively seeking out Shun'ei’s company to start a genuine friendship based on mutual understanding rather than competition.
Powers
Isla has a similar power to that of her rival, Shun'ei, though both hands are purple, in a similar vein to Iori Yagami's Orochi-tainted flames. Though while Shun'ei's hands are large and only show up during some of his special moves, Isla's are relatively small and appear floating around her at all times, being heavily integrated into her gameplay, such as for double jump.
Fighting Style
Isla mostly avoids physical hands-on combat, as she keeps her own hands in pockets when fighting at all times. Instead, her main method of fighting is with her kicks and her floating phantom hands named "Amanda" (アマンダ). She also uses spray paint cans as another type of weapon.
