Hobbies:
Track and Field
Micah is fast. Very fast. If she isn't absolutely still, she's either walking very fast or running, whichever is more socially accepted. This makes her perfect for track and field. The only drawback is that, like all sprinters, Micah lacks the stamina to keep running for long periods of time. She can complete a sprinting event with relative ease and then run a little more just for kicks. However, if she pushes herself too hard, say for two sprinting events without a resting period in between, then she gets worn out. This still doesn't stop her, however, from testing her limits periodically. Afterward is always the same story. She huffs and she puffs, her lungs hurt, her legs shake, and she feel great as she collapses onto her couch.

Baby Sitting
Micah has a soft spot for children, she always has. She can't really stand other people, but children up to the age of 10 are a different story. Something about the inherent innocence of a child makes her feel better, even though there might not being anything to feel bad about. For the time she spends babysitting, she's able to pretend that the child is her own, and dote upon him or her. While she won't spoil them rotten, she has been known to sneak them a cookie before lunch form time to time, or let then play one more game before nap time if they were especially good that day. She loves watching the faces of little ones light up when she arrives at their house and announces, "today we're making cookies!"

Jurassic Park
When Micah was a girl her parents would sit her and her twin brother in front of the TV and flip on Jurassic Park. "We're going to the store kids, just stay there." It was a way to avoid the stress of taking children shopping and allowed the two of them would get lost in the world of Jurassic Park. It's why Micah loves dinosaurs so much. It's why she spends so much time researching and learning all she can about the extinct ecosystem. From plant life to the food chain, Micah can spout anything anyone needs to know about dinosaurs, especially velociraptors.

Puzzles
From jigsaw to words, Micah loves puzzles. Something about the mystery of it all. She knows there's an answer somewhere, and it's up to her to find it. Her love of puzzles has only increased as she has grown, going from 50 piece to 1500 piece puzzles that she saves as trophies. All around her walls are framed and saved puzzles that she felt particularly proud of. Each of them dated and hung with care. On any given day there will be a puzzle waiting to be finished on the card table in her room. Sometimes two if she's feeling adventurous.

Virtues:
Puzzler
Micah's love of puzzles expands beyond just a mere cardboard game. To her, everything can be treated as a puzzle -- and being good that them makes that a major advantage. She believes that every problem in life has a solution, that all the pieces are there, and it only takes a sharp mind to put them together. Much like a puzzle. Micah has exactly the analytical mindset it takes to solve such complex problems. Even tests are just riddles waiting to be solved. She has all the information in her mind, she just needs to organize it and put it into place.

Eager
Micah has been described by many teachers as zealous… passionate. Her friends call her spastic. Micah is just very eager. About everything. Everything in Micah’s life holds some new wonder for her and she just can’t wait to discover them. The smallest things like her alarm going off a minute early and the fact that her toast was burnt. She is just so ready to experience everything her life had to throw at her.

Brave
Along with Micah’s eager nature, she had developed into a very brave young woman. After all, you can’t really tuck into a bowl of atomic curry when you’re himming and hawing “Oh… I don’t know…” Micah tucks in her napkin and keeps her milks close at hand. She utilizes this bravery in real life too. Chances are if there’s a tough situation at hand, Micah is already either up to her elbows in s**t or has dived head first into it.

Flaws:
Stupidity
Micah bravery can also get her into serious trouble. After all, there is a fine line between bravery and stupidity. Micah has more than once crossed such a line. Remember the atomic curry? It hurt as much coming out as it did going in, and that was a lot. And the huge problem she get herself into? Turns out it was a huge misunderstanding. Unfortunately she figured it out only after she’d brashly interrogated all responsible parties and made more than a few enemies. She doesn’t always think, and gets herself either in trouble or way in over her head.

Over Protective
Like it or not, Micah defends her friends. More often then not they tend not to want her to get involved. This leads to more than a few fights were all Micah can really do is sit back and be scolded, not wanting to wrong her friends any more than she already has. She also tends not to notice when her friend is in the wrong, so she ends up defending someone who has done wrong. This leads to a whole slew of problems, as one can imagine.

Headstrong
Micah’s mind works on a one track setting – once she has a problem or a riddle in mind she will focus on this until she is finished. No baby steps and no brakes. Because of this she tends to wear herself out if the situation is too complicated. She won’t even realize that she’s about to pass out. She’s bull headed enough to suffer through whatever illness or exhaustion is in her way. To further complicate things, Micah refuses to ask for help. She will do this herself or die trying. Because of this, when she either solves the problem or gives up from sheer exhaustion, she’ll end up with a severe headache at the very least.

PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION

Over all she's about 5 foot 6 with a large bone structure. She has no sharp curves to her body, it's all very curvy, even her face has very smooth lines. Her stomach has a slight pooch and her butt is a bit too large. This is the source of many hours of girlish obsession before she steps foot out of her house. Her bust is slightly too large for her frame, which leads to many back aches throughout the day.

Eyes: Her eyes are a touch too big for her face, and pointed slightly downwards at the inner points. They are golden around the outside of her iris, but bronze near the pupil
Hair: Its defiantly a toss up between auburn and brown, depending on the season and the lighting. It's almost very mane-like in the way it's situated on her head. It's built mainly on whimsical looking curls that flip out and every given direction and can't be tamed.
Face:Heart shaped. Her nose is flipped a bit upwards. Her upper lip is significantly larger than her bottom lip, so it looks like it's always being sucked into her mouth.
Clothes: Micah's Closet

Trivia

Velociraptors

I thought velociraptors weren't around when the Moon Kingdom was around, but they were in the anime, so I'm all confused now. Anyway, the concept sounds so cool and creative! I want to see a fight already!

Nothing pops out as wrong about her civilian and senshi forms. I have no idea if that's any help at all! sweatdrop

CIVILIAN SIDE:

Her hobbies are awesome! NO complaints there. XD


Micah's Protective trait is really confusing -- I'm having a lot of trouble figuring out what aspect of her personality you're trying to describe with it. She's always trying to handle her friends' battles for them... and then she's really selective about how she handles situations between two friends... and I'm not seeing how this makes her a likable or admirable person? I see you have some of this covered in her Overprotective flaw, but I'm not seeing how this is a virtue!

If the admirable part is that she's willing to step in when her friends get hurt, that would probablt be more appropriate as an addition to her Loyal virtue. If you're trying to get across that she's not afraid to get involved when there's a difficult or dangerous situation at hand, then it might work better to make that into a Brave virtue.

You mention that her Loyalty is very conditional, and she sticks really closely to her personal rules for each circle. I think it might work a little better as a Selectively Loyal flaw, since unless you're in that coveted innermost circle you're pretty screwed! I don't see her peers appreciating that very much at all.

Swift: This needs more information on HOW she's sharp-witted. What kind of situations does this help her in? Considering how active and willing she seems to be through the rest of her profile, maybe Eager is a more appropriate virtue than Switft?


Fool Me Once is also a bit confusing. You say she trusts indiscriminately, but you have it right there in her Loyal virtue that she's really selective about who she trusts and how much she trusts them. Along with that, I'm not seeing a flaw in this trait. What part of her personality is this supposed to be describing? Is it that she's easy to take advantage of... or that she avoids people who take advantage of her... or that she forgives after a while... or that she has to "steel her heart and turn back on them?" This looks more like a story than a character trait. You need to describe ONE aspect of her personality and show us how it makes her unlikable for it to be a flaw.

I'm having the same problem with Social Being: I'm seeing a story instead of a flaw. Are you trying to say she's really dependent and clingy? You should show us how this affects her behavior AROUND people, instead of AWAY from them. Does she beg people to stay around for longer when a social gathering is over? Does she ever get so desperately lonely that she'll call up a friend at two in the morning just so she has some kind of human presence around while she's burning the midnight oil?


SENSHI SIDE:

Okay, so the Normal / Super attack, generally speaking...

-- has a 10 second charge time? That's a LONG time to wait for your attack to activate. Unless it has a definite point RP-wise, it doesn't seem necessary to have.

-- creates an area of effect that's basically a whirlwind of minor cuts? I'm kind of confused, it looks like an instantaneous attack when you start your description (she throws her arms out to slash at her opponents) but then you have it lasting 30 seconds. I think this attack would work overall better if the attack were instantaneous. Otherwise you need to give us a clearer picture of what's going on in the area of effect for those 30 seconds!


Velociraptor Endow has too many effects! She gets a general stat boost that lets her run at cheetah speed, AND teammates can ride on her with ease, AND she gets a legit velociraptor claw that can do serious damage? You need to take one of these off. I'd recommend removing the claw, since if she has that along with the ability to outmaneuver anyone else then it would take her no effort at all to kill her opponents. That's pretty overpowered, and having the major drawback after the fact doesn't really justify it.

You also need to provide a FIXED duration time for this attack. I'd err on the side of a minute, since that's a long duration even for higher-level spells.



Honestly, what I would recommend is to possibly switch the attacks around: it feels like it would be a cleaner progression for her to be able to bestow velociraptor speed on herself for her basic attack -- but SPEED ONLY without the grace, so she's great at charging in a straight line but her steering's kind of awful? -- then add an agility and maneuverability boost at Super. Then she gets the sweeping slash attack at Eternal, where you'd be able to get away with doing more damage with it.

Edit:: Le dumb, because I read Mouses post wrong.
xDD

Changed the family to a MUCH shorter version. Makes things easier.
