Fav. Food: Spicy food. Anything spicy. Basically give her a plate of fire.
Hated Food: Anything bland. Gisela needs spice to live.
School: Crystal Academy
Hobbies: Piercing -- Gisela loves to pierce. She has a make shift "home piercing kit" which consists of a large sewing needle, rubbing alcohol, and rubber gloves. On the nights when sleeping is harder than usual, Gisela will sit on the floor of her bathroom and find something else she can pierce. Her ears are already full of shrapnel, she has her septum pierced, a set of snakebites, a beauty mark, and even some more unconventional piercings, like the skin on the bridge of her nose and the back of her neck. Just a bar through the skin, but the second she found out that she could, she did. This doesn't always go well, however. Even though she's extra careful, Gisela can't prevent infections, which are even harder to prevent when she's working with so little in her bathroom. Every once in a while, she even gets to share her favorite past time with a braver friend!
Yoga -- An an attempt to settle her nerves, Gisela has her own yoga routine. It's about an hour long, and she can do it in the quiet of her bedroom whenever she needs to. In fact, whenever Gisela finds herself losing grasp of herself, she will find a nice, quiet place and run through her stretches and positions. Even though she has a set routine, Gisela will never pass up an opportunity to learn more, and so she is a pretty regular face at the local rec center. She loves how yoga tests so many parts of the body, like strength and flexibility. She also likes the pseudo-social parts of yoga. Like how you can do Yoga with a group, but not have to actually interact. She can say she socialized to pacify her parents, but in reality she hadn't said one word to anyone. Only made polite faces and staying on her mat.
People Watching -- It doesn't require a lot of energy, so Gisela can spend endless hours doing it. Often times Gisela will plant herself on a bench or at a table and just watch the people going by. It's sort of like watching the fish at the dentist. She can sit alone on the outside and watch people swim by on their own. Again, she doesn't have to interact with anyone, but she gleans some understanding of people. Like she is able to socialize vicariously through other people. Every once in a while someone will come and sit next to her, at which point Gisela will try her best to ignore them until they go away.
Virtues: High Function on Little Sleep -- Gisela suffers from sleep paralysis, which means that many nights her sleep is either disrupted or she takes measures to make sure that she does not sleep at all. Because of this erratic sleep schedule, Gisela has adpated to be able to function on a fairly high level with very little to no sleep. She may drift off from time to time, and may find it harder to focus at times, but these instances are only slightly higher than if she had gotten a normal night of sleep. Not that this happened overnight. At the beginning of her plagued nights, it was almost impossible for Gisela to stay awake during the day and keep her mind on task. This skill was honed over years of suffering, and even now isn't even close to perfected. She could do without the days when it feels like she's moving through quicksand. Her ability to function like this is also very handy in school, giving her extra study hours if absolutely necessary.
Energy Efficient -- Much of Gisela's ability to function as highly as she does with as little sleep as she gets is because of her uncanny ability to laser focus her energy and make her actions as efficient as possible. She tends not to waste energy doing necessary things, and not exerting extra energy doing one thing. She knows exactly what she needs to do and how much energy it will take to do those things from day to day. It helps that Gisela keeps a fairly strict daily schedule. She already has a finite amount of energy to spare, and that reserve is less than it should be from lack of sleep. Anytime she can cut energy expenditure she will, like finding the shortest possible route from A to B and merging two pit stops into one by finding everything she needed in one place. Sure, sometimes she ends up having to spend a little more money, opting to go to one store instead of two or even three, but it ends up being worth it in the end.
Observant -- People watching has made Gisela very astute. She can notice differences in people and her environment almost immediately. Even if she can't tell what changed, she can tell that something did change at the very least. She also picks up on nuances and expressions, making it very easy to read people. Don't try to lie to Gisela, there's a very good chance she'll pick up on the deception. She's not as good as Sherlock Holmes, despite what her parents joke about around the house, but she is very good. She wouldn't be able to tell that someone worked for the Queen of England due to the state of their slacks, but she can tell when someone has spent the day crying, and when someone works construction even when they are out of uniform.
Flaws: Short Tempered -- Gisela uses her energy wisely and can work all day with no sleep, but this leaves very little energy left over for patience. It's sort of another reason she tends to be on her own more often than not. She just can't stomach being around people for too long, they get on her nerves. Her temper can be triggered by any number of things; she might not agree with something someone said, they may be speaking when Gisela would rather have silence, they weren't invited to sit and talk with her, or just walking in front of her. Really anything can set her off. Her temper manifests in rude remarks and angry shouting, but never anything physical.
Parenoid -- Gisela is plagued by the things in her corners when she tries to sleep. For this reason, she doesn't entirely trust her corners in the daylight. She doesn't like being alone in a room, for one thing. She tends to feel prickly all up and down her spine, eyes watching her from all over, and hear things around her. When she's around other people, she assumes that they think poorly of her, and will talk badly about her behind her back. When someone is laughing within her earshot, she will assume they are laughing at her. Because of all of these things, Gisela can't partake in people watching for very long before she is run off by her own fears. Come night fall, however, things get ten times worse. She needs to have all the lights on in her room to even think about laying down for the night. She also needs to preform a thorough inspection with includes locking the door to the outside, her closet, and the bathroom so nothing can get in. She makes sure all the paths leading out are clear and even then, she runs her escape route several times.
Territorial -- Gisela has her territory and that is her territory. The limits of her territory are also expanding indefinitely, including things, places, and even the odd person that she deems un-irritating enough to talk to. Once these things are hers, Gisela does not share. When someone tries to impose of Gisela's territory, she tends to get fairly visceral. More than anything, this will trip her hairpin trigger. Her territories include her room, whatever she is sitting on, her yoga mat, and whatever friends she may or may not have accumulated. Infringing on these things, or if one of her friends dares to have another besides her, will result in loud insults. Friends of Gisela's are advised not to introduce her to other friends.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION Note: Gisela's father is originally from Nigeria, with her mother being German, so skin tone to match.
Eyes: Thin, sunken in, and baby blue
Hair: Gisela has a hard time keeping her hair neat, so she generally shaves her head, leaving only a thin layer of fuzz
Face: Long and thin
Clothes: Gisela generally dresses in whatever she finds, opting for comfort over anything else. Normally slouchy, mismatched, and sometimes even a little dirty.
Fuku: Totally CC. This was a concept I really fell in love with, but I had no idea how to structure color or a design around it. All I ask is that since she's nearly bald as a civilian, her powered hair be tightly bound.
Sailor Scout Attack: Noctua Feverish Nights Noctua closes her eyes and calls the name of her attack. Upon opening them, she will lock eyes with one person and they will be subject to the attack. For the next ten seconds the victim will feel like they haven't slept well for the past few nights. They will feel sluggish, irritable, and confused. Noctua can use this attack 3 times in a battle if she pushes herself, but mostly she keeps it to twice. It's useful mostly for getting away or getting in a sucker punch if she needs to.
Super Sailor Scout Attack: Noctua Sleepless Nights Noctua closes her eyes and calls the name of her attack. Upon opening them, she will lock eyes with one person and they will be subject to the attack. For the next ten seconds the victim will feel like they haven't slept at all for the past few nights. They will be victim to the more physical symptoms of insomnia, like tension headaches, nausea, and dizziness. Noctua can preform this attack twice or once with enough energy left Noctua Feverish Nights
Eternal Sailor Attack: Noctua Living Nightmare Noctua covers her eyes and calls the name of her attack. When she uncovers them, she will lock eyes with one person and they will be subject to the attack. For the next fifteen seconds, the victim falls prey to the symptoms of sleep paralysis. They will be unable to move but begins to see the shadows move. Depending on the mental stability of the victim, the shadows may just seethe, or they may come alive all together. What the victim sees is also subject to change depending on what that person. Noctua can only perform this attack once with enough energy for one more of her lesser attacks.

Name: "Paddington" Jade Lovecraft
Nicknames: Jade. (If you call him Paddington he'll shank you - only his mama can call him that.)
Age: 17
Birthday: November 13th
Sign: Scorpio
Blood Type: B+
Fav. Food: Fire Roasted Veggies, he loves these especially with bits of meats like Kabobs. They're easy for him to make as he knows how to start up the grill with a match and some wood. The first time he had them was at a cookout he was at with his parents. Jade normally throws on random spices and sauces to make different flavors while trying to find just the perfect taste.
Hated Food: “Everyday” Fruits, his family always had fruits like bananas, apples, grapes, and pears hanging around the house and out for breakfast so much he's gotten sick of them. However, the occasional star fruit or pomegranate he does like. Anything that you can find sitting on his table on day-to-day bases he won't touch. Unless they’re in fruit salad with other fruits.
School: Hillsworth
Hobbies:
-Collecting Dragons
Jade loves dragons for some reason. He collects most that he can find even if they’re suppose to be used for a game. He doesn’t play Dungeons and Dragons but he loves the figures that are normally found in the game. He also has many pewter dragons and random other materials including one particular glass Dragon he is overly protective of keeping it in a small locked cabinet with a glass front. His collection includes books and art of dragons as well.
Jade really doesn't like the rip offs that look ‘stupid’ or cutesy dragons. Unfortunately, Jade’s mother still gets the cutesy ones for him on gift giving holidays. He has a special place for those, over the fireplace mantel, he claims it's so they look like his mother's own small collection and not his. At least when his friends come over.
-Video games
Jade loves most video games, after having acquired a few systems. He seems to favor the ones that are more interactive as it “helps build his muscles.” Though he knows that might not quite true, even though it does stretch a few he didn’t know he had. Jade’s favorite games tend to be the fighting games, while avoiding girly games. When girls ask for a certain game that he doesn’t have Jade grumps, “I DON’T PLAY GIRLY GAMES LIKE ‘HELLO THERE KITTY’! Let’s Bowl!!”
-Bass
Jade took up lessons when he was in about 5th grade. He first was interested in the guitar when he watched one of his older brother's best friend play. Ever since he's been hooked and eventually moved to playing the Bass. He often does jam sessions and isn't afraid to play in public places like the park or outside some of the minshopping malls. Usually in places he knows he can't get chased off for playing. He also occasionally drops into the subway system and starts playing.
Gemstone: Amethyst [Talismanic Stone of Scorpio]
Virtues:
-Independent
Jade hates having to depend on someone. He thinks if he has to depend on someone it means he’s weak and girly and he refuses to be even remotely like either of the two. Jade sees being dependant on someone as a weakness and since he’s found out he’s been adopted, he’s not really been willing to depend even on his parents. In his mind this becomes a virtue because he’s not a ‘parasite’ on society.
-Fast Learner
He might not be the smartest guy ever, but he does learn relatively fast. If he doesn’t understand something and asks for help he won’t have to ask again after he understands it. The only downfall is he might have to get someone to explain it a few different ways until Jade actually gets it.
-Honest
Jade’s as honest as they get. His view of the world is if you’re not honest, doesn’t matter how bad things get, you’re still screwed in the end. It’s perhaps one of the few things he still believes in and even more so after finding out he’s adopted. Sometimes he can be a bit too honest, but he feels since his parents ‘lied’ to him for so long that he has to make up for it.
Flaws:
-Short Temper Jade has an extremely short temper when it comes down to the wire. His temper ticks like a bomb, when he reaches explode mode Jade will get into fights. Of course, Jade knows he can’t fight with a girl so he’ll storm off to find some random guy to sucker punch. Most of the time when he doesn’t reach the exploding point on his temper scale he'll just bicker with people. Which occasionally leads him into a short shoving match with the other, but when he starts to bicker and fuss it does take a while before he officially cools off.
-Depressed
Jade feels like something is missing in his life like something has been taken away from him but he can't remember what. Sometimes this plays into his short-temper making him more of a monster than clingy to other people. Jade is normally found sitting on his bed and staring at family albums wondering if there was suppose to be someone at his side. He also seems to be able to suck the life out of a party when he’s in a depressed mood.
-Authority Issues Jade tends to have issues with adults. He's very hostile and defiant of his parents and most adults he doesn’t respect. It also ties into his ‘naturally’ short-tempered personality, because adults or anyone in a seat of power can easily annoy him. Even though his parents explained to him early in life he was adopted as he moved into his teen years it seems to have caused him more angst.
Physical Description:
Hair: Black with blue and golden colors. Mohawk or fun punk hair. (Mohawk options 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 . . . . . . . - 5 (if you choose five feel free to throw in a purple or white for a 4th color.) Eyes: Yellow almost serpent like in appearance. Face: Oval shaped Body: Thinish build, slightly muscular. Height: 5'9"
Fashion: Lots of punk/band stuff. He hates most ties and button up shirts, but he’ll wear them when they look messy, wrinkled, and ‘bad boy’ sort of things.
---------------
Senshi: Sailor Peacock, Corrupted Senshi of Vanity.
Challenge: "Don't be so drab Darling you're fabulous."
Fuku Colour: Main Color: Peacock Blue Secondary Color: Peacock Green
Fuku: Peacock inspired.
Attacks:
Sailor Scout Attack: Vanity's Skin Deep
- When peacock casts this attack, he summons a small amount of energy that appears to be in the shape of a peacock. When he uses it on a target, the target suddenly starts to feel a sense of worry about their appearance. Often it amplifies insecurities about the target's complex that are already there, like if the target is self-conscious about having warts, pimples or freckles. The attack works as a distraction, allowing Peacock time to attack or flee depending on the situation. This attack lasts roughly 15 seconds, and is only useable twice in battle. However, it's easily dispelled by someone giving the target reassurance that their worries are unfounded.
Super Sailor Scout Attack: Vanity's Marrow Deep
- When peacock casts this attack, he summons a small amount of energy that appears to be in the shape of a peacock. When he uses it on a target, the target suddenly starts to feel a sense of worry about their appearance. Often it amplifies insecurities about the target's complex that are already there, like if the target is self-conscious about having warts, pimples or freckles. The attack works as a distraction, allowing Peacock time to attack or flee depending on the situation. This attack lasts roughly 20 seconds, and is only useable twice in battle. However it can be dispelled by the person looking into any reflective surface and realizing that their worries are non-existent.
Eternal Sailor Attack: Vanity's Sorrow
- When peacock casts this attack, he summoned a small amount of energy that appears to be in the shape of a peacock. When he releases this energy towards a target, the target begins to hallucinate about some insecurity they have about themselves. The attack lasts about 25 minutes and can be dispelled by some act of appreciation displayed to the target.
Nickname: There's pretty much no decent way to contract her name (none that she'll accept, anyway).
Age: 18
Birthday: January 18th
Sign: Capricorn
Gemstone: Garnet
Blood Type: AB
Fav. Food: Crab. Taken out of the shell already, of course, since cracking the shells and pulling the meat out is so, so messy.
Hated Food: Most other seafood. That fishy taste and smell is gross, the texture is dissatisfying... so on and so forth.
School: Destiny City University
Hobbies:
High-Class Socialization - Rich girl parties are one of Mara's favorite things. There's nothing like getting dressed up, putting on makeup and her favorite jewelry, and going to a classy establishment to exchange gossip and girl talk with other rich girls. Dinner, socialization, beauty... she feels it's all essential to the upper-class lifestyle. In this respect, she's kind of like a Real Housewife-in-training. With less prosthetic legs being thrown around.
Fashion and Beauty - Mara loves seeing beautiful dresses and hairstyles and makeup techniques. She subscribes to a sizable number of fashion magazines, and she frequently clips desired outfits and hairstyles out of the magazine to pin on a "fashion board" that acts as a kind of wishlist. She changes her hairstyle frequently and has a sizable closet with plenty of clothes for each mood. Polyvore is one of her favorite sites. The more variety there is in the beauty, the better it is.
Shopping - Mara finds herself with disposable income from time to time, and so she likes to spend it on whatever strikes her fancy. She will walk around in Destiny City's shopping districts, window shopping for all manner of things (typically clothes or shoes) until she spots something she likes, in which case she will walk into the shop and probably come out with a good deal more than what she saw in the window. She also enjoys online shopping, both for real and virtual goods. She has been in a phase of buying adoptables and getting art for them for a while now, and she will frequent places with virtual fashions for avatars if the fashions look good and the community is friendly.
Virtues:
Generous - Though Mara possesses a lot of wealth, she's actually quite willing to spread it around. If you're a good waiter/waitress, she's a good tipper, and if you're a friend in need, she'll give you a bit to go off of. As much as she loves things that fit in with the high life, she will also put her money towards supporting smaller businesses or individuals that make nice handmade items (she feels Etsy is a marvelous place). She will buy gifts for someone if the item reminds her of them, or if it's something they have been looking for. She would make a good philanthropist if she donated to charity instead of her (poorer) friends.
Courteous - Raised as a proper lady (in so far as proper ladies exist in this day and age), Mara knows her manners. She possesses an expertly-honed politeness and propriety, making her seem quite pleasant. She knows all the tricks of a pleasant conversation: the handshakes, the curtseys, the how-do-you-dos. She's very good at making people feel welcome and comfortable, and she is an admirable host.
Perceptive - The little nuances are important in social politics, and so Mara has trained herself to notice them. Distracted eyes, different clothing or makeup than usual, a nervous tic... she will notice all these things and more. She's the one who always asks why a person is giving her a certain look when the other person is completely unaware of it, and she's also the one to say things like "You seem happy today. Did something good happen?"
Flaws:
Superficial - Mara is very much a person who dresses to impress, and expects others to do the same. It's subtle, but she is definitely biased towards beautiful people, and she'll trust a pretty face much more than she'll trust an average one. She is the type to gossip with her friends about that person over there who is blatantly unfashionable ("Is that lady wearing Crocs? Ew." Assuming Crocs are actually unfashionable, of course). She will certainly look down on a person who shows a disrespect for dress codes and shows up underdressed, or who generally appears sloppy. It's a shame the world can't be as up-to-date on the fashion trends as she is, or the world would be a lot less ugly.
Snobby - If Mara decides you're beneath her level (power-wise, looks-wise, brains-wise, pretty much anything-wise), she will put her nose in the air and walk on by. Her disdain for those who aren't as refined as her is clear and cutting, and if she hasn't been given a reason to accept you, she will treat you like the lower-class person she thinks you are. It might be little things like "asking" (read: ordering) you to get her something or do her a favor, or something bigger like defending someone else over you even if you're in more trouble. She might even push you around a bit if she doesn't feel you're up to her standards.
Callous - Mara is the master of giving people the cold shoulder and showing that, when she doesn't care, she really doesn't care. She will offer you no sympathy for your plights; in fact, she might even try to make you feel worse about them if she feels you deserve it. She will ignore your "whining" and give you a thoroughly blistering silent treatment. If she tires of you and your situation, she will freeze over and be as cold towards you as humanly possible.
Eyes: Grayish, with a slight tint of green to them. A bit narrow.
Hair: Dark blue, bangs swept to her left, kept in a braid.
Face: Oval, with a pointed chin, Clear complexion, generically pale.
Clothes: A purple sweater dress, with grey stockings and black buckled shoes. Also a choker. (See the reference.)
* * *
Senshi: Corrupt Sailor Alphecca, Senshi of Gluttony
Challenge: Only the finest dining for me!
Fuku Colour: Black, as she is a Corrupt. Main Color: Purple Secondary Color: Red (See this palette for the purple and red being referenced.)
Fuku:
Collar --Let's go with a plain sailor collar for now. Bow -- A plain bow for now. Bodice -- Maybe a standard sort of bodice for now, but there should be a hole or something to show off her Corrupt chest crack. Sleeves -- Those kinds of sleeves that are kind of off the shoulder, but still attached to the bodice. Brooch -- A crossed fork and knife. Bottoms -- A short but full skirt. Tiara -- A standard senshi tiara, with a hanging-down bit from the central jewel so that the jewel + the hanging down bit looks like a spoon. (The forehead crack should still be visible though.) Choker -- Not sure. Maybe no choker for now. Shoes -- Knee-high boots. Gloves -- Plain gloves. Accessories -- Dinner plate-shaped earrings. Perhaps her hair should be half-up (as in, most of it is down and fabulously long and flowing in typical Corrupt style), and the part of it that's up is held up by dinner fork "chopsticks".
Attacks:
Sailor Scout Attack: Just a Nibble!
Bringing one hand up to her mouth, Alphecca will make one enemy feel full and slightly woozy, like they have eaten a bit too much. The fullness is not that hindering; the target will probably be able to push through it if they try. The effect lasts 25 seconds. This attack can be used three times.
Super Sailor Scout Attack: Fine Meal!
Bringing both hands toward her mouth, Alphecca inflicts a greater feeling of uncomfortable fullness and wooziness on up to three targets, like they have eaten way too much. The fullness may be hindering at this stage and may be accompanied by a mild stomachache. The effect lasts 35 seconds. This attack can be used twice.
Eternal Sailor Attack: Grand Feast!
Spreading her arms and then bringing them towards her mouth, Alphecca conjures illusory food for every enemy in a 15-foot radius. The food will be their favorite food, and they will be able to smell it very distinctly (they will not be able to smell other people's food, though they can see it). The targets will be given a fairly strong urge to approach the food, and they will be able to taste the food as they approach it, with the sensation getting stronger the closer they get (yet it will never feel like a full satisfying bite). However, once they get within two feet of the food (the food will initially appear six feet away from the target in any direction), it will start to move away from them. There is no way to catch, eat, or destroy the food. The food and the urge to follow it will disappear after 45 seconds. This attack can only be used once.

Name: Rhian Brady
Nickname: Rhi, Flutterby
Age: 14
Birthday: May 27th
Sign: Gemini
Gemstone: Emerald
Blood Type: B-
Fav. Food: Cotton Candy. Far and away, cotton candy, though Rhian does enjoy other sweets on occasion (and will never turn down chocolate or strawberries if they are offered.)
Hated Food: Anything with meat in it. Rhian is a vegetarian and can barely stand to walk past the meat aisle in the grocery store.
School: Crystal Academy (boarding)
Hobbies: Socializing - An extrovert to the core, Rhian is rarely found on her own. She's happiest when she's around other people, be it one or two individuals or large groups. She actively takes time out of her day to seek out social connections and spend time with them. Whether it's just for a few minutes or for several hours, Rhian thinks the best way to pass the time is to spend it with friends. Whether it's exchanging gossip, working on homework, or just sitting in silence and watching the clouds go by, Rhian will always, always seek out someone to do it with.
Tarot - No-one ever said a hobby was something you had to be good at. Which is a good thing, because while Rhian adores and practices with the tarot card set her older sibling gave her before she went to board at Crystal Academy, she is entirely terrible at it. This doesn't stop her from freely offering to do readings for interested people, or on occasion simply taking the cards out to admire the pretty designs.
Visual Novels - Everyone has a rainy-day or sick day hobby, and Rhian is no exception. when she's simply too under the weather (or, on the rare occasion, simply not up for it) to go out and spend time with friends, she will curl up with her laptop and read visual novels. While she avoids the edgier, kinkier versions, she has a soft spot for romances and other dynamic storylines, such as Clannad. The complex, often-interactive storylines are sufficient to keep her engaged whereas she can struggle to hold her attention on more straightforward, literary novels.
Virtues:
"Let's be friends!" (Friendly) With some people, there’s only a few people they can get along with, or even a specific personality type or two. Not so Rhian, who simply loves people to the point that she doesn’t believe there’s someone out there she would be unable to get along with. She’s put off by neither sourpuss nor shyness, and is willing to befriend anyone as long as they give her the chance. Maintaining these friendships is something that takes a lot of time and effort, but a large social circle is important to Rhian and each and every person she knows has something good about them that makes them worth befriending and spending time with. Rhian is willing to shape her behavior as needed to make her friend comfortable, which makes her easy to get along with – but this, combined with her desire to help people in whatever way she can, combines in a way that creates one of her bigger flaws. The good thing about her friendliness, though, means there’s never any shortage of new friends for her to find and make.
"Let me get that for you." (Helpful) One of Rhian’s greatest desires is simply to be useful. To who, she isn’t particularly picky – as long as she feels like she’s being productive and an asset, she is more than willing to help anyone (barring the obvious – she won’t try to assist in anything like robberies or breaking and entering!) with whatever it seems like they’re having trouble with. Old ladies crossing the street? She’ll offer her arm and converse about grandchildren or cats as they walk. A classmate needing help with homework? Rhian’s there, and she’ll find the books needed to cover the topic. This willingness to help comes with no strings attached – Rhian helps others for the sake of helping others, and expects no payment in return. (This does not mean, however, that she won’t accept it if it’s offered; particularly if it comes in the form of sweets.)
"Oh no, are you hurt?" (Compassionate) They say that the truly compassionate feel the pain of others as if it were their own, and Rhian certainly seems to embody this statement. Something of a bleeding heart, Rhian simply cannot pass by someone in distress, whether she knows them or not. Sometimes the hurting need cheering up, and sometimes they just need someone to sit and listen to them as they went their feelings – Rhian can get mixed up between which is needed for what scenario, but she won’t give up until she’s managed to soothe whatever ache she’s found. If nothing else, her sheer determination to cheer up the person can often ease a smile out of them, which is enough for Rhian. She isn’t afraid to make personal sacrifices in order to ease the pains of another, either – missing classes or cancelling outings as needed. She can make up the classwork and can reschedule an outing, but a person’s pain is a very immediate, very pressing matter, and nothing in her mind outweighs the need to try and lessen that agony.
Flaws:
"There's no such thing as bad people." (Naive) Rhian views the world through rose-colored glasses: people are basically good at heart, most things are well-intentioned, and the worst pains can be eased if only someone would take the time to comfort the wounded. This is, of course, not a worldview that holds much weight at all against the backdrop of reality, but Rhian persists in this belief and as such can be very easily led astray. Her willingness to believe the best of people can and has led to her forgiving treatment that others would find intolerable, and acts like bullying leave her flat-out bewildered: why, after all, would anyone deliberately hurt somebody else? Growing up incredibly sheltered has only strengthened Rhian’s naivety, and while she is aware that bad things happen, she’s still convinced that people who commit terrible acts are simply in need of help themselves.
"My head's in the clouds? How do I get it down?" (Off-kilter) As some of her other traits might have hinted at, Rhian isn’t totally all ‘there’ mentally. In trope-language, a Cloudcuckoolander. That is to say, not only is her head in the clouds, but her view of life and existence is so unusual as to be absurd. She’s a sweet girl, but to even the most casual of observers she is a little ‘off’, and lives in a world of her own making. Her beliefs seem to come from little, if any, basis in reality - and for those unable to roll with the sometimes bizarre ideas that she’ll spout off or the childlike way that she views the world, Rhian is difficult to tolerate. Even to those who love her, she can be annoying and off-putting with her persistent, nonsensical beliefs – for example, Rhian believes firmly that plucking the wings off of an insect makes a nearby flower die, and thinks that S.C.P. and many Creepypastas are real. This can and has resulted in teasing and bullying, but she tends to be unaffected by it due to her naïve belief in the innate goodness of humanity.
"Can I get you something? Anything?" (People Pleaser) The downside to Rhian’s helpful, friendly nature – the dark side of someone who can be too selfless. In other words? She’s annoying. Nobody likes a people-pleaser, and an oblivious, chatty person who is constantly offering to help or do things with or for someone can be downright obnoxious. While Rhian is social and has many friends, the sad fact is that none of these friends are close friends, and she tends to think acquaintance and friend are just about the same thing. Her eagerness to make friends and please others can instead drive them away, and since she’s oblivious to this aspect of her behavior, she doesn’t attempt to tone it down or change it. Instead, she carries on and is left wondering why people no longer want to accept her help or her time. The other downside to this trait is that her eagerness to help is very, very easily abused. And in the hands of a skilled manipulator? Rhian would merrily burn the world to the ground if she was led to believe that it would actually be helpful.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
Eyes: Large, round, and aqua blue. Usually either sparkling with mischief or glazed with the absence of thought. Hair: Rhian's hair is a hairstyle fading from her natural soft pink, into lavender and finally into powder blue at the base. She wears most of it long and loose, but pins her bangs back out of her face with butterfly hairclips. The hair itself is wavy and slightly uncontrollable, giving it a fluffy, messy look.
Face: Rhian has a face shape that is somewhere between heart-shaped and round, with a chin just a bit too wide to be called properly heart-shaped but too narrow to call anything else. Her skin tone is on the paler side, but with a golden undertone. She has some freckles across the bridge of her nose and her cheekbones that become more prominent the longer she spends in the sun. In the winter, they fade slightly.
Clothes: For school, the Crystal Academy uniform. When she's left to her own devices, Rhian prefers dressing in frills and flowy fabrics, being happiest when she ‘feels like a fairy princess’
*~*~*~*~*~* Senshi: Sailor Laodica of Serenity. (The concept and feeling, not the person!)
Challenge: "Serenity will overtake you." Fuku Colour: Corrupt Senshi, so black. Main Color: A cool, pastel color, such as a soft blue or green. Secondary Color: A neutral color or a darker and more vibrant cool color to offset the pastel.
Fuku: Think of Wa-Loli for a reference - something elegant and feminine, with a lot of flowing lines and an overall simple, clean look.
Collar -- Plain sailor collar? Does it have a white stripe at the end? Bow -- You need some form of frontal decoration and all senshi must have some kind of back bow (female) or sash (male). Bodice -- A swimsuit-type bodice? White will be the dominant color for your bodice, unless corrupt, when it will be black. Maybe like a crop top -- maybe a dress? A bikini top? You can have any top you like, pretty much. Sleeves -- Got sleeves? Brooch -- Round? Shaped like anything? Keep this plain for the first incarnation. Bottoms -- Shorts? Capris? Miniskirt? Tea-length cocktail skirt? Your typical school girl skirt? Tiara -- Every senshi is required to have some form of tiara. Beaded? Traditional? Woven fabric across your forehead? Choker -- Choker is a classic, or a necklace? Or a scarf? Shoes -- Go crazy? Gloves -- Any gloves? Accessories -- Any accessories? Earrings? Jewellry?
Attacks: If uncorrupted, sailor Laodica's attacks would have been restorative in nature, focusing on healing of the mind and emotions and providing a cushion, of sorts for those who were shell-shocked or otherwise panicking on the battlefield. Corruption, however, has given these normally-beneficial attacks a much darker application.
Sailor Scout Attack: Touch of Serenity
Sailor Laodica says her attack phrase and pirouettes on her left foot with her right arm held over her head, pointer finger lifted. When she finishes three rotations she comes to a halt and extends her right arm out tapping her target with her finger. The target is then engulfed in a feeling of serenity that manifests as a mild trance-like state, ignorant of the battle around them. This state can be shaken off with enough strength-of-will or by a physical impact such as a knock over the head. The higher level the target, the more innate resistance and the less effective the overall attack is. Range/Uses/Duration: A single target that must be within reach, two uses per battle. Less effective against stronger opponents. Lasts 10-15 seconds without interruption, varies depending on target’s mental strength,
Super Sailor Scout Attack: Serenity’s Embrace
Sailor Laodica speaks her attack phrase, then pirouettes on her left foot with both arms held over her head, pall fingers extended. When she finishes three rotations she comes to a halt and extends her arms at her target, embracing them either bodily or whatever part of their body she can get her hands on. The target is then engulfed in a feeling of serenity that manifests as a trance-like state, ignorant of their surroundings. This state can be shaken off with enough strength-of-will or by a strong physical impact. Unlike its weaker counterpart, the physical impact needs to be significant enough to cause some injury in order to break the trance. The higher level the target, the more innate resistance and the less effective the overall attack is.
Range/Uses/Duration: A single target within reach, three uses per battle. Less effective against stronger opponents. Lasts 15-20 seconds without interruption, varying depending on target’s mental strength.
Eternal Sailor Attack: All is Calm
Sailor Laodica’s most powerful attack is ironically initiated by her speaking her attack phrase and then kneeling, brushing a hand across the ground in front of her. From where her hand touches the ground, her influence radiates out in a circle for about ten feet, catching up to three targets – friend and foe alike – in the attack. Targets are confronted with a feeling of serenity so calming that they both become unaffected by events outside the circle but also feel no desire to continue said conflict. This sensation can be fought against and overcome with sufficient mental strength, and those not caught in the field during its formation can enter it without being affected. Laodica herself is extremely vulnerable during this attack, as she cannot leave the circle without the effects ending.
Range/Uses/Duration A ten foot circle centered on Laodica’s hand, affecting up to three people of any faction. Two uses per battle, but is a very draining attack and requires some time to rest in between. Lasts 30 seconds when uninterrupted and against those not strong enough to fight the influence. The effect dissipates after this time or when Laodica is removed from the circle. Again, while this attack is powerful, it’s also very training and a significant risk to Laodica’s safety, so much be used with caution.
Nickname: Please call her Lily - anything else seems a little over-formal, and she's never liked roses much, anyways.
Age: 16
Birthday: January 2nd
Sign: Capricorn
Gemstone: Garnet
Blood Type: A-
Fav. Food: Lily has a regrettable sweet tooth, best experienced when she's presented with anything peppermint-flavored. She likes to carry around a purse filled with breath mints and those resturant peppermints.
Hated Food: Anything messy. Eating should usually be fast and clean. Also, since her father went vegan, she's developed a strange fury towards vegan cheese; it's not real cheese and needs to stop pretending and it TASTES GROSS eugh she feels unclean.
School: Meadowview High School; she's a sophomore at present time.
Hobbies: Piano: Lily has been playing the piano since she was six. Is she terrifyingly good at it? Well, if you played an instrument for ten years, you'd be pretty good at it too, probably. She's a wonderful sightreader and tries very hard, but her technique and her fingering is always a bit sloppy, and...it takes her a very long time to memorize a piece! It's distressing. To combat this, Lily tends to use smaller pieces, merging them into one larger musical piece. Don't ask her to play by ear, though. It's very distressing for her. Keeping Notes: Lily's memory is...not the greatest. To combat this, she likes to take notes on people and things she encounters, so she can have a primer: nobody else gets to see them, but she regularly rereads her own notes. Lily is that girl who keeps a planner for school and uses it like a madwoman: every page is filled with detailed notes about her homework, because otherwise she might just forget. Don't be worried when she starts writing down things during any meeting: it's just her way to take inventory and table it all out in her head, so Lily can understand it easily and quickly; and she can reread it on the fly if her memory taps out.
Virtues: Unerring Focus: Lily focuses on things like a bullet. Or a hawk? Whatever your focus metaphor of choice is, Lily focuses like that. She notes little details, sure; but her true strength is in the fact she will zero in on something and KNOW it. She won't be tempted away from her given path, and she will not be distracted. When Lily is focused on something, you can't distract her; it's impossible to try. Optimist: Everything will be okay in the end, right? Lily genuinely, 100% believes this. There's a silver lining in every cloud, and something good comes out of everything bad. People are never completely bad, and everyone has a little bit of good in them, and total evil isn't true: this is not the end, and the sun will come out tomorrow. It's for the greater good, and maybe it's childish to say so, but Lily wants to - and does- believe that the world is good. Helpful: Lily wants people to be happy! She'll assist in any way possible to make you happy and cheerful and content...if you want her to. If you don't want, she's ok with that, she doesn't want to pry. But what she does want to do is be useful, and be helpful, and she'll do whatever she needs if you ask.
Flaws: Doormat: Lily never stands up for herself, ever: she desperately wants other people to be happy, and if they can make themselves so by hurting her, she's okay with that. She just wants people to be happy. Is there anything wrong with that? Well, when she'll let the people who she's focused on get their kicks at the expense of other people, there very definitely is. It's incredibly easy to assert yourself at Lily's expense, and if she sees anything wrong with this, she ain't saying. Secretive: Lily keeps secrets. A lot of them. Is she trustworthy? Certainly! But if there's anything that bothers her or anything that she doesn't want other people to know for any reason, she'll keep it to herself all the time; keep it close to her chest and never let anyone be hurt with it. Nobody can get hurt if nobody knows, and she'll take the blame, it's ok, she doesn't really mind. It's the one exception to the fact she has no will of her own: Lily will never tell a secret. Somewhere Far Away: Lily goes far away from here, sometimes; she retreats into her own little space in her mind and lets her body go on autopilot and feels like she's floating. Lily doesn't think of herself as a real person, essentially: and she doesn't feel like one, either. So what does it matter if people walk over her? She's not here. Her body is here, but Lily-the-semiperson is somewhere floating in space, and she's safe there and it's quiet and nothing will hurt her soul.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
Eyes: Very light blue, but also some average, pale blue in there? Maybe a hazel, or a gradient.
Hair: A brunette with soft, wavy hair; her bangs frame her face, and her hair reaches down to about below titty-level.
Face: Lily has one of those 'traditionally beautiful' faces: high cheekbones, small dainty nose, soft lips. But there's a certain sadness and hollowness to her face, so her eyes are dull and her lips are chapped from biting.
Clothes: N/A Lily prefers dresses, highwaisted skirts, and the color blue. No jewelry, except maybe hairclips. She customizes her Meadowview uniform by wearing tights -- there's probably some kind of floral print on them. She likes patterns, monochromatic (black/white), and eyeliner.
Fuku Colour: Main Color: Icy pale blue Secondary Color: Dark grey-purple
Fuku:
ELEMENTS TO THINK ABOUT FOR SENSHI, FEMALE AND MALE -- YOU DON'T HAVE TO HAVE THESE, JUST THINK ABOUT THEM
Collar -- Plain sailor collar? Does it have a white stripe at the end? Bow -- You need some form of frontal decoration and all senshi must have some kind of back bow (female) or sash (male). Bodice -- A swimsuit-type bodice? White will be the dominant color for your bodice, unless corrupt, when it will be black. Maybe like a crop top -- maybe a dress? A bikini top? You can have any top you like, pretty much. Sleeves -- Got sleeves? Brooch -- Round? Shaped like anything? Keep this plain for the first incarnation. Bottoms -- Shorts? Capris? Miniskirt? Tea-length cocktail skirt? Your typical school girl skirt? Tiara -- Every senshi is required to have some form of tiara. Beaded? Traditional? Woven fabric across your forehead? Choker -- Choker is a classic, or a necklace? Or a scarf? Shoes -- Go crazy? Gloves -- Any gloves? Accessories -- Any accessories? Earrings? Jewellry?
Your MAIN COLOUR should dominate. Your SECOND COLOUR should be used for trimming.
ideas -- flowy, transparency? backbow, some kind of chest/torso wrap, long skirt. should be possible to move in and dance in though. some kind of transparent clouds as markings like sailor elektra? long sleeves, maybe some kind of elfin look? should look kind of regal, detached, otherworldly and mystical. any jewelery should be silver or black with iceblue or greypurple gems. painted nails? long sandals, boots? except for maybe bodice and sleeves, most of fuku should be flowy, not tight
Attacks: Sailor Scout Attack: Ophelia Foggy Whiteout Sailor Ophelia says the name of her attack and blows a puff of cold, misty air; this surrounds Sailor Ophelia in a ten-by-ten-by-ten foot radius of cold fog, dropping visibility for 30 seconds. This does move with her, as it is more a collection of cold air than it is an actual solid form; however, it is magical, and cannot be blown away by wind. This fog is fairly solid, and probably a bit uncomfortably nippy; but it's not gonna cause frostbite. Visibility will be reduced about 40%.
Super Sailor Scout Attack: Ophelia Windblown Whiteout Sailor Ophelia says the name of her attack and blows a puff of cold, misty air; this surrounds Sailor Ophelia in a ten-by-ten-by-ten foot radius of cold fog, heavily dropping visibility for 30 seconds. Visibility will be reduced about 70%, and it's a bit colder; you might go a little numb.
Eternal Sailor Attack: Ophelia Sector Whiteout Sailor Ophelia says the name of her attack, hands up to the sky. For 30 seconds, a thick snowy fog emerges from her hands, causing most surface definition of objects to be nigh-invisible; this attack reduces visibility by 90%. Also, you're gonna be cold as HELL, please put on a jacket; it's like you're on the top of a mountain!
School: DCU – currently undeclared but will probably major in chemical engineering or mechanical engineering
Hobbies:
Gunsmithing: Karen grew up around firearms as a child, her father was a gunsmith and she learned a lot about how the weapons worked from him. She still maintains her skill at fixing and restoring firearms when she can, and she keeps a few collectable pieces stashed away in a storage unit to eventually restore to full use once she gets out of school and can find herself an apartment.
Baking: Karen LOVES to bake, it doesn’t matter if it’s cookies or a cake or some other confection. She enjoys reading the recipes and crafting delightful morsels in the kitchen. She actually doesn’t like any other kind of cooking – too much effort – but baking is just enough of a reward to actually go through the hassle of following the directions.
Sports Shooting: Karen does like to go to the shooting range when she can. Growing up around firearms as she did, she has a healthy respect for not only their use, but also the sport of their use. She’s actually a fairly decent shot – but sadly she’s still too young to own a pistol of her own. One day!
Virtues:
Driven: When Karen sets out to do something she is almost always pushed forward by her own need to succeed. She has a natural drive to get things done. This results in her not staying in one place for very long, and she is almost always on the move – trying to get her current task done so she can move on to the next one, until all the work is done and then she can finally relax.
Efficient: Karen dislikes wasting anything, be it time or resources, so she tries to find the most effective and efficient way to get things done. Sometimes this can lead to her cutting corners but such instances are rare. Usually she’s able to figure out the best way – in her mind at least – of getting things done to optimize the amount she’s able to do in any given day.
Personable: Karen likes to get to know people – she’s not afraid to dive into social situations and rub elbows with strangers. She likes to try and make friends with everyone she meets – and is more than willing to give everyone the benefit of the doubt, even if they seem to be total jerks.
Flaws:
Clingy: When Karen gets attached to something, she has a bad habit of holding on to it for far too long. She has a hard time of letting things she cares about go – and it can lead her into some very unhealthy situations. She has stuck with abusive relationships for longer than she should on the simple fact that she could not let go of the “good times.” It doesn’t matter if it’s a person or a thing, she will cling to them/it for dear life if she’s afraid they’re going to vanish.
Lazy: The dark secret of Karen’s drive and efficiency is that it has little to do with her actually having a real work ethic. Nine times out of ten, Karen’s effective strategy was born out of the fact that the girl is a complete lazybones. She dislikes doing anything that remotely feels like work, so she figures out the quickest and best way possible to get it done.
Naive: Karen doesn’t always understand that people aren’t always going to be looking out for her best interests. She grew up trusting everyone around her because she was able to. Now that she is effectively on her own n the real world, she has very little skill in picking up on bad ideas or bad situations.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
Eyes: Round Green Eyes.
Hair: Shoulder length auburn hair, usually worn in a ponytail. Has a slight wave to it.
Face: Oval with light freckles over the nose and cheeks, small ears.
Clothes: Karen pretty much just wears worn, ratty t-shirts and overalls, and heavy work boots.
***

Sailor Scout Attack: Blazing Cannon Tseen Yin summons a ball of energy the size of a bowling ball between her hands and launches it in a parabolic arch at her target. The projectile then explodes on impact with anything solid with the force of a cherry bomb. She can use it three times a fight, with a minute between attacks (at least two posts to recharge.)
Super Sailor Scout Attack: Blazing Cannon Barrage Tseen Yin summons three balls of energy the size of bowling balls between her hands and launches them in a parabolic arch at her target. The projectiles then explode on impact with anything solid with the force of a small stick of dynamite. She can use this attack twice a fight, with a minute between attacks (at least two posts to recharge.)
Eternal Sailor Attack: Blazing Cannon Blitz Tseen Yin summons five balls of energy the size of bowling balls around her body and launches them in a parabolic arch at her target. The projectiles then explode on impact with anything sold with the force of a stick of dynamite. She can use this attack twice a fight, with a minute between attacks (at least two posts to recharge.)
Hated Food: ramen noodles, they make her sick to her stomach.
School: Destiny City University - studying Pre-Law / currently looking to intern at a paralegal office.
Hobbies: Broadway Musicals - Strange I know, but Dani has this love for Musicals. It all started with Cats, as she saw herself as Rum Tum Tugger. Why? Simple, she did the opposite of what anyone asked her. But she fell in love, and started making herself a collection of cds based off all the musicals she could find. Currently she has about fifteen, she wants more, but at the moment she knows better. She'll just have to wait to expand this collection.
Fashions Trends – Dani likes to try and stay on the forefront of fashion trends. She can often be seen trolling fashion blogs and pouring over magazines trying to get a feel for the “next big thing.” She always keeps an eye out for the latest new thing in order to be as big of an early adopter as possible. It’s not usual to see her rotate through three or four different fads before finally settling on what is actually the new “thing” that month.
Tennis – Dani’s choice sport to keep herself in shape. Since tennis requires her whole body to move around the court, Dani considers it her full body workout. She also enjoys the pace of the game – it’s quick and requires a lot of skill to be played well. She’s by no means a pro – but she’s not slouch either. She’s got a pretty good serve and backhand – but she’s working on her forward swing to try and improve her game.
Virtues: Proud: Dani has pride in herself and it shows in the way she carries herself as well as how she interacts with others. This pride is what keeps her going day in and day out - never allowing her to give up in anything she does. She constantly tells herself that she can do things that she normally shouldn't be able to do - and is more than willing to take risks to get there. Her pride propels her forward to do great things even when she is up against the ropes.
Social: Dani is a very social creature, talking with any and everyone she meets - even if it is just polite smalltalk. She's not above chatting with a stranger on the street or on the bus, even if it's about the weather or local goings on. Luci considers it only polite to be social-able, as well as filling in that gaping hole of where her family used to be. She dislikes rude people, but will socialize with them if she lacks any other option for socialization.
Charismatic: Dani was gifted with a silver tongue and quick wits. She is able to talk herself out of trouble, and when talking doesn't suffice - she is able to pout her way out of trouble. She's is able to make herself seem vulnerable at times, then strong at others. While she can be very charismatic she can at times be lacking a bit in tact and can sometimes come off as a bit overly direct.
Every cloud has a silver lining: Dani believes that no matter how bad things can be, that there is always a bright side to a situation. This keeps her going even when things are super tough, because no matter how bad things are right then, she knows eventually they'll get better. This faith in the future helps keep her spirits high even when life is pulling the carpet out from under her.
Flaws: Hubris: Pride comes before a fall, and Dani has pride in spades. Her hubris makes it almost impossible to reach out and ask for help should she need it, often making life harder for herself despite the fact that all she'd have to do is ask for help. Her pride blinds her to offers of help, often refusing help even if she knows she needs it. She feels she needs to do everything on her own - no matter what.
Overexerts: Dani doesn't know when to quit, and often pushes herself to the breaking point and then some. She never really knows she's doing it, often just pushing herself without even thinking about it.
Tactless: Dani can often be rather upfront and tactless at times. She often says things they way they are - calling things as she sees them. She can come off as rather rough around the edges at times - but this is tempered by her natural charisma. That's not to say that she doesn't upset people sometimes - but she can usually control her tactlessness - but eventually people get upset by her sometimes brutal lack of tact.
Rose colored glasses: For all the faith Dani has that things will turn out better - it can sometimes blind her to the actual risks and trouble she is currently in. She sees the world through a rose tint - nothing is wrong, everything will be just fine. So what if her mom disowned her? So what if she's crashing at her Aunt's house and doesn't have her own place - things will get better right? Her refusal to accept that things are going poorly in certain areas makes it hard for her to see the world for what it really is - sometimes with very negative results.

Attacks:
Sailor Scout Attack: Scorching Bolt! Ara summons a bolt of magic that she launches at her foe. On contact with skin, the bolt causes a minor-to-medium (High 1st, low 2nd degree) burn. The burn can be treated like any other burn. She can use this attack three times a fight, with a one minute (or two post) recharge between uses.
Super Sailor Scout Attack: Scalding Bolt! Ara summons a bolt of magic that she launches at her foe. On contact, the bolt cause a medium-to-major (high 2nd - low 3rd degree) burn. The burn can be treated like any other burn. She can use this attack three times a fight, with a one minute (or two post) recharge between uses.
Eternal Sailor Attack: Burning Fury! Ara summons three bolts of magic that she launches at her foe(s). On contact, these bolts cause major-to-intense (high 3rd degree - low 4th degree) burns. These burns can be treated like any other burn. She can use this attack once a fight.
Hobbies: Singing: Since Ashton was a little boy he's always singing. He memorized songs from movies, like all children did. Only instead of doing it in his spare time, once he realized he had a real talent for it, he asked his mother to send him to lessons and now he does it semi-professionally in seedy little bars. He doesn't mind, he would do it for free, but bills need to be paid.
Couch potato: Not being busy is a luxury. So when he can, Ashton stays home and just does nothing. He eats junk food, watches stupid TV shows, and falls asleep at random times. Between his two jobs and trying to go figure out a way to finance a higher education, this is most definitely one of his favorite hobbies to do.
Virtues: Hard working: Nothing in life comes easy. He has worked for everything he has. His designer shoes, his clothes, his small apartment came from working tirelessly since he was nine years old. He would do chores for money, babysit , mow grass, house sit, any odd jobs he could until he was able to work at the age of sixteen. He worked fast food, as a maid in a hotel, seedy bars with singing, and eventually became a regular at this one bar and now models for a magazine whenever they need him. He doesn't call in sick. He doesn't come in late. Not if he can help it, anyway.
Prompt: Well, rather early. With Ashton it's early or not at all. He's an hour or more early to anything that has an appointment time, and that's because he factors in for disasters and what not. If he's ever running late there's always a reason and more often than not there's proof to back him up. Sometimes he can't help but run late, he realizes, and is really hard on himself when he is no matter the circumstances. Being prompt is showing interest, according to him.
Orderly: Everything is organized with him. It helps run things efficiently and effectively. He's able to make lists on a moments notice because he always has pen and paper with him somewhere in his bag. Pro and con lists help him decide things for himself when the decision doesn't come easy. He always looks neat and professional if he has a choice about it. Even his apartment is orderly and neat, almost as if no one lives there. He's kind of a**l about being clean.
Flaws:
Panic: It's not hard for him to go into panic mode. If something happens he's not prepared for, he automatically goes there. His mind starts racing and he starts making a lot of mistakes with things that would ordinarily be very simple. He gets flustered and tongue tied and it's at this stage where he starts to either tear up or just close himself off completely. He's trying to get better at it, but these things take time.
Isolate: Ashton does tend to isolate himself with how busy he is. It comes with always working, always being o the go. He doesn't get the chance to hang out with other people, so it isn't something he's too terribly interested in outside of work. Even during work his professional air about him doesn't exactly leave one with the warmest thoughts about him.
Sensitive: At 4'11'' tall, Ashton is really sensitive to his height. He has had it tough since he was a child and one would think his skin would be thick. Outwardly he acts like comments don't bother him. He really tries not to let them, but after a while it just builds up and he just goes quiet and the energy around him changes. Doctors wanted to classify him with dwarfism but he doesn't meet the criteria in height or other symptoms. He's simply a petite individual.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
Eyes: Bright orange
Hair: Dark, dark brown, nearly black. Long and in a ponytail over his shoulder.
Face: Round with a little baby fat.
Clothes:See ref. The horns, ears, and tail are all part of the hoodie. They aren't real. o uo But if it could still be a really bright orange?
Fuku Colour: Main Color: Black Secondary Color: Blood red
Fuku: CC, but if you can incorporate characteristics of the Ekek; bird-like humans.
His hair would obviously get ridiculously long, and is it possible for it to be tipped with the same bright orange as the civilian clothes/his eyes? CC style.
Sailor Scout Attack: Taste Test! Something happens in which his target's mind is tricked into feeling, and seeing, a bird-like human biting sensation on their skin in a place he touches. It's a hard, stabbing pain but fades quickly after the 30 seconds it lasts. Can be used on one target. Other effects are purely psychological; feeling the biting longer than the 30 seconds.
Super Sailor Scout Attack: Bon Appetite! Similar to his basic attack, his target's mind gets tricked into feeling several more bites and a slow burning, tearing sensation. They continue to see the bird-like humans chewing on them. This lasts 35 seconds and can be used on two targets. Other effects are purely psychological; feeling the biting longer than the 35 seconds.
Eternal Sailor Attack: Eaten Alive! Again, similar to his previous attacks, his target is riddled in the feelings of being bitten and their flesh torn. Hallucinations these creatures eating his victims alive are prominent and strong. This is an AOE. Any target in an 8 ft range feels this for 45 seconds. Other effects are purely psychological; feeling the biting longer than the 45 seconds.
It is up to the player the effects that they could 'feel' after the attack!
Hobbies: Model U.N: Debating, debating, debating! Her father, Tariq Humayun, was a distinguished and well known lawyer in her old town. Since the first time she accompanied her father in court, Rabia wanted to join him! However, she's had to settle for the next best thing-- Model U.N. She constantly participates in these debates, formulating precise and articulate ideas to go against the other countries and spends hours pouring herself over debates.
Go-Kart races: Ever since she was 10 years old, when she passed by a track on her way home, Rabia's enjoyed go-karts. She'd spend hours watching them as well as riding them, perfecting her craft and knowing how to shift gears, turn the kart just enough so as to not spiral out of control... She enjoys the rush it gives her-- and the fact that she could control it was even better. She's been planning to move to race cars one day, but she's still stuck on go-karts for now.
Virtues: ambitious: Rabia is very ambitious— she has already prepared in advance what she's going to be when she's older and how she will become it. She is willing to put in the most amount of effort to achieve her goal. Since she was a girl, she's known what inspires her-- and that's helping others in whatever way she can! She wants to become their voices, to help and amplify them so everyone can hear and listen to them. She wants people to pay attention to her for their sake, and if it gets her more attention so she can climb the ladder to the top, she'll definitely do it!
observant: Rabia is highly observant of the people around her. She is always looking at the little details and attributes that make or break a person. Rabia can't help looking at someone who is particularly interesting— someone who looks like they have much to say, an aged past, or etc. She finds stories and tales of the past extremely interesting, which is why she enjoys to spend time with the older generation just as much as she enjoys spending time with her friends. Strangers are particularly interesting to her because she doesn't know ANYTHING about them, thus making her curious and unbearably interested! She might study a stranger more than a friend because she's analyzing them intently.
confident: She is overly confident and proud of herself, her nose held high and shoulders back. She prides herself on her appearance as her family in Pakistan constantly complimented her on her beautiful appearance. Even though she may not be beautiful to others, she considers herself to look amazing at all times. In the shower? Sleeping? Mortally sick? Beautiful, she was amazing.
Flaws: opinionated: Rabia always jumps up to speak whenever she can in any conversation, even if someone is already talking, believing her input to be more important than the opinion of anyone else. She will never back down from a debate, even if in the end she will lose. She gets frustrated when she watches an oral fight and will always butt in, as if starting a war. Sometimes she gets so excited to respond, she forgets what she'll say, and she gets extremely frustrated and angry for not having had her way.
attention-seeking: Years of having to do everything in her power to attract her fathers attention has made her very conscious of when people are or aren't paying attention to her. She really loves it when people pay attention to her, and little compliments or small gestures of appreciation go a long way with her. Most of the time, this is bad, as she often gets annoying, sometimes literally asking for the others to pay attention to her like a spoiled brat. Sometimes, it just makes her sad. Not that she'd start crying! But she'd probably go to the bathroom and sulk a little.
wasteful: Years of being treated like a literal princess by her family effected her greatly, making her used to wasting things, whether it be a lot of money, or barely any at all. Her father only increased this, as during the time she was neglected by him, she kept asking for more and more things so that she could catch his attention. Spoiler: it never did. He just kept giving and giving, pushing Rabia to keep taking and taking, until she was used to taking that she thrived on it. She may ask someone for something, only to ask more for it later. It's not that she's being greedy, it's just that she doesn't know hot to control herself!

Attacks:
Sailor Scout Attack:Bellona Burning Toss! Bellona stomps her foot down, summoning a flag made of energy. She then starts twirling it, the flag glowing in her main color. In the end, the flag turns into a small ball of energy and she throws it at the target. If hit, it hurts enough to give a mild, first degree burns and can be used once per battle.
Super Sailor Scout Attack:Bellona Searing Strikes! She grabs two energy flags slung on her waist and throws them in the air, grabbing them when they fall and throwing them at the target(s). Can be used twice per battle, and if hit, feels as if you're getting really bad second degree burns.
Eternal Sailor Attack:Bellona Rallying Shout! Bellona pulls out an energy created megaphone and yells the attack into it, giving her stamina to a the companions within a 10 feet radius, equally distributing it among them. She gets extremely fragile afterwards, and takes around 5 minutes to recuperate. It boosts the morale of her companions and powers up their next attack.
