Kasumi - Train-Seer, Onryo and yes, she stared in The Ring!

(not really, but same idea!)

AMITYVILLE ACADEMY ENROLMENT FORM

Name: Kasumi
Nicknames: She doesn't remember any, but Sumi sounds appropriate.
Gender: Female
Age: 15 years alive, 7 years dead.

Faction/Race Ghost, sub-species Onryo

Personality: Kasumi's not crazy, she swears.

She only remembers one thing, and very vaguely, from her past - she hated men. This extends to men of this world too. To her, men are chauvinistic, smelly pigs who deserve to Die in a Fire. She won't associate with a man on purpose, but knows she'll probably have to if she has classes with them. Men with authority, like teachers, will be obeyed, but begrudgingly. This hatred of the other gender is the only thing Kasumi can cling to from her past life, and she holds it very close to her heart. Obviously, a dirty male had something to do with her death, she thinks, so which one is it? If forced to interact with a boy her age, she'll be short, simple and snippy to them. She won't wait to make nasty remarks about them too because she could just fade through a wall and be done with it.

With women, she's a whole 'nother ball of ectoplasm. Kasumi is her 'natural self' when around other women. She's kind, compassionate and above all, very friendly. She feels women understand her more, and are indeed the fairer sex. She's a giggly schoolgirl and has a large circle of female friends. She'd be more than happy to attend a sleepover, read gossip magazines or do another girl's hair. She even likes female reapers, despite their reputation for taking out ghosts. They're women! They wouldn't be so cruel. She had a very good relationship with her mother, but she doesn't remember it. Unconsciously, she extends this warm relationship to the women and female teachers in her unlife. In classes with female teachers, Kasumi would likely go above and beyond the call of duty in homework and participation.

When you get to the heart of things, she's really and truly afraid of men, but she doesn't want to succumb to the "weak woman" stereotype. She puts up a front when around the boys and lets it come down when around the girls. Girls are safer, more fun and much less frightening.

Why did they enroll at the academy? She was brought to Halloweentown by a reaper while she was wandering around the mental ward of a hospital. Not knowing anything about how she got there (aside from the reaper, of course), Kasumi opted to enroll in the local Academy to make friends and learn more about what she's become.

Natural Ability: Paralyzing Stare - All onryo possess the ability to stare down their opponent and paralyze them. This is only effective if they keep eye contact.

Fear: Dementation - If you've ever played Vampire: The Masquerade, you'll know what I'm talking about! If you haven't, well...

Kasumi sees and hears things other people can't. As a result, she ended up in the mental ward. She can't stop or stem the flow of these, but she can plant them in someone else's mind for a time! The target of her Fear will start to see or hear things that are not actually there, the intensity of which will depend on Kasumi's strength.

In game terms, Kasumi would roll a 10-sided die. On even numbers, the target is afflicted with visions, audio hallucinations or a combination of the two (it's up to the player). On odd numbers, the attack is ineffective. If Kasumi rolls a 10, the attack is Super Effective! She is Grass Type to your Water Type! O SNAP. (And no, your Water Type does not know Ice Beam. :< )

Examples:



Physical Description:
Eye Colour: Very light blue.
Hair Colour/Style: Black, slightly wavy and very thick. Goes down to the small of her back when not straightened.
Skin Colour: Lighter Caucasian with gray, vein-like markings all over the body.
Clothing Style/Colours: She's wearing a white hospital gown, stained with dirt and time.
Extra: Very long hair~

Why does Kasumi see/hear things?

Her visions aren't really "visions" in the psychic sense. While she thought she was a psychic in life, she actually was hallucinating. This extends to her unlife. She hears and sees things that aren't really there and if she sees something that can be explained (like a snapshot of a place or a person), she really will believe it's a psychic vision. She'll even tell you so. Alas, it's just a product of her crazed mind.

Why is she an Onryo?

Onryo are ghosts who came back due to a need for vengeance. Kasumi doesn't remember what this vengeance was, but she knows it has something to do with a man. Heck, she doesn't even remember the vengeance part! In reality, her father went crazy (due to visions, as he was a psychic as well and passed this down to his daughter) and murdered both Kasumi and her mother. She wanted vengeance on her father, and this explains both her being an Onryo and her hatred of men.

Onryo... like the chick from The Ring!?

Basically, yes! Just minus the crawling and coming-out-of-TVs and the seven days and whatnot. smile

How open is she about her "psychic" abilities?

Honestly, it depends on who she's talking to and how much she trusts them. She's certainly not going to post a sign everywhere saying she's Miss Kasumi, mon, cam in fa ya psychic reedin' or anything. Her best and closest friends would know, and anyone who ended up with her when a vision happened might know. Other than that, she tends to keep it to herself.

Posting with permission from Lu:

Just a couple of questions about Kasumi's visions/psychic-ness:

Is she secretive about it? Like does she try to hide it from others or does she admit if asked but doesn't volunteer this information or is she "OH HAI I'M PSYCHIC! I SEE YOU FALLING DOWN THE STAIRS IN-OH SLUDGE ARE YOU OKAY?"

And you mentioned that in the train game she sees colors. How clear are her visions now that she's a student in the academy since it's also related to her FEAR power?

Thank you so much, Huni~ I've updated her FAQ and I'm adding videos for help in people seeing/experiencing what her Dementation might do to a character if it lands. smile

"Found in mental ward, was she?" Hellma sighed, "It is always the freaks we get." Glancing outside the window, she viewed a scene involving a werewolf, a giant porcupine, and some sort of glue creature. Wincing, she turned away.That had to be painful. This must be what humans refer to as Darwinism.

"Well, this is the place for them, yes?"

The Acceptance Bin didn't answer, having already snuck the application off her desk.

"Impudent glutton!"
