Hana 'Inkweaver' Sato

About

A manga artist who dances between the shadows of her own mind and the vibrant worlds she creates, Hana 'Inkweaver' Sato is a master of storytelling and a poet of the pen.

Backstory

Nobody suspected that the shy girl sketching in hospital waiting rooms was documenting something far more profound than boredom—she was capturing the exact moment souls left bodies, translating death into ink with an unsettling precision that would later define her art. Hana's parents owned a small manga shop, but her true education came from countless nights spent beside her terminally ill grandmother, learning to see the invisible threads that connected life, death, and the stories people told themselves in between. When her grandmother whispered her final words—"Show them what you see, little inkweaver"—Hana understood that her pen had been blessed with a terrible gift. At 20, she won a prestigious manga contest with a story so hauntingly beautiful that readers wept without knowing why, but success only amplified the weight of channeling the boundary between worlds, leaving her dancing on the razor's edge between genius and madness.
