Name: Sekani Fitzmartin
Nickname: Sek, Fitz
Age: 22
Birthday: April 18
Sign: Aries
Gemstone: Bloodstone
Blood Type: A+
Fav. Food: Pudding, flavored yogurt, parfait, custard, etc. Creamy, sweet things.
Hated Food: Sushi
School: Destiny City University
Hobbies: Socializing - Sekani lives for the wild nightlife of Destiny City, and he would live for the daylife as well if there's a party going on. The entire atmosphere of the great social gathering pastime puts him at ease to relax or otherwise enjoy himself. While he usually prefers bars and other such naturally frisky events, he also will not pass up a birthday party or austere business mixer. It's all about being around the energy that lots of people bring to a room. On the other hand, he rarely goes to loud, digital rave clubs; more often than not, he'll be drunk and deaf before he can really meet anyone, which takes away the fun.
Cooking - With a professional chef for a father, Sekani grew up with an assortment of creative and delicious foods. From around the age of 15, he began to pick up some skills of his own. The basics came almost naturally, though now he has definitely hit a learning curve with the finer nuances of knowing what can go with what, how to fillet a fish, and how to tell if your special pastry is about to combust. Sekani prefers to make his own food if he's not going somewhere reputable, so a brown paper bag is a constant companion. (If you saw him watching Cupcake Wars, you'd think it was the Super Bowl.) He does not so much have a favorite "genre" or nationality of food as he has favorite ingredients: red meat, rice, potatoes, and vegetables, usually the weirder the better. They come together to make a lot of yummy traditional dishes, but he'll often find some way to mix it up -- with questionable results.
Throw Sh*t in a Pot: Combining his penchant for interaction and interest in cooking, Sekani created this little online abomination webshow a year ago. The content is often off-the-wall, usually tasty, and sometimes questionable. Just because Throw Sh*t in a Pot is a cooking show, it doesn't mean that there won't be clips from Reb Brown movies after all. It's fairly popular now, but he still tries to answer many of the comments left. There's a new ~1 hour episode up every other Saturday!
Contact Sports (Lacrosse) - Sekani's team sport du jour is lacrosse. He thinks it has the perfect equation in a sport: rowdy contact that's a bit more than just running into each other; constant action with a wide field; hand-eye coordination; and a copious amount of tiny nets. He can be a bit zealous (and vicious) while on the field to the opposing team, but he brings it down after the game for good sportsmanship. Usually. Other than lacrosse, he's also up for other raucous sports if someone's putting together a game.
Virtues: Optimistic - There is always an up-side, a silver-lining, a positive spin! Sekani doesn't let life get him down and he's happy to provide the same service to others. Sometimes it may take careful thought to actually find this ray of sunshine on a cloudy day, but rest assured that he will find it. Moping won't help anything, after all. Despite his overall personality, he'll try tone himself down if that's what the other person needs at the moment. Basically, it's like this: "If life seems jolly rotten, There's something you've forgotten; And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing." (Monty Python)
Generous - Sekani will give someone the shirt off of his back if they needed it, and a lot more of other things that would not leave him naked. He isn't rich by any means, so this manifests moreso in possessions he has on him at the time, such as popcorn, umbrellas, car rides, and the like. (He'll actually be happy as a clam if a friend asks him to make a lunch.)
Easy Going - Sekani's mantra is generally "if you're doing what you like then you're living well," which comes from a spring of inner confidence (both in others and himself). He is slow to pass harsh judgements and is open to changing his opinions on people -- grudges are too much trouble! He won't rock the boat and he's content to go along with the majority's plan, even if that plan changes along the way. In the event that he's feeling willful about an idea that opposes the group, he's more apt to bow out of the group or help in an indirect way than cause a stink over it.
Flaws: Impulsive - Life is too short to spend it worrying about every little thing -- unfortunately, for Sekani, the little things may actually be big things. He's prone to rushing into situations without giving the consequences a first thought, which can get himself and anyone else within his gravitational pull into trouble. It has negatively affected his schooling (especially in chem lab!) and will earn the ire of his lacrosse teammates when he disregards a play. It also turns his optimism against him, because it's hard to sit in jail next to the guy who got you in there and listen to him prattle off the positives.
Irresponsible - Sekani would rather not grow up any time soon, thank you. Growing up means taking responsibility and getting a real job and all of that stress, when he finds it to be much more enjoyable to just do whatever, whenever he feels like it. He's a physics major at DCU, but he isn't really planning for the future while he's there -- the thought of a 9-5 job almost terrifies him, though he hasn't put much thought into alternative either. Also, Sekani will gladly carry out any stupid prank he or anyone else can think of, too, as long as it's nonviolent.
Manipulative - If Sekani wants something out of reach, he is not above messing with the person most likely to get it for him. Between an unconscious shift in tactics and a planned assault, his default methods are playing up the sympathy card with sad doe eyes and throwing out as much enthusiasm as possible. He doesn't care so much what the other party ultimately thinks of him because of this, as long as the ploy is successful; likewise, he doesn't especially care that he's doing something so underhanded. It's a non-issue.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION (see refs for an approximation)
Eyes: vivid purple
Hair: Light, almost electric blue. Straight, but with enough body to keep it from lying completely flat. Mid-back length, but he more often than not wears it in a high ponytail. Chin-length bangs.
Face: Heart-shaped face. Ears are a little big for him and stick out slightly.
Clothes: Trendy t-shirts or the classic polo with well-fitted jeans. He bundles up like a fiend in winter.

Senshi: Sailor Tethys, Senshi of Rapids Challenge: You're in for a rapid defeat! Fuku Colour:Main Color: some shade of steel or gray blue Secondary Color: some shade of "medium" or bright orange Fuku: (everything grayed out is CC) Just going to say no 'beach' themes. Collar -- Bow -- butt bow of some kind, orange Bodice -- Sleeves -- Brooch -- Bottoms -- MENSHI SHORTS OF SOME KIND 8D No short-shorts, though, haha. Tiara -- traditional senshi tiara Choker -- Shoes -- Gloves -- Accessories -- Maybe some theme with buckles? No actual puffy life vest on him, though, please. <3 Attacks: Sailor Scout Attack: Rushing Rapids: Class One! Sailor Tethys calls out the attack's name and a churning bundle of water and whitewater mixes in his left hand, vaguely shaped like a ball. He tosses it to his right hand and it spreads into an arc on the way there. Once it has all gathered again in his right hand, the entire ball bursts forth as the rest of the attack joins it from behind. Method: A torrent of water (~3ft) shoots toward the target. Range: 10ft Duration: Near instantaneous hit; 10 seconds of actual rapids and then putters out quickly. Damage: The torrent causes a blunt-force hit that shoves the target in one way and leaves them soggy. Usage: Twice per battle.Super Sailor Scout Attack: Crashing Rapids: Class Four! Sailor Tethys calls out the attack's name and a churning bundle of water, whitewater, and small rocks mix in his left hand, vaguely shaped like a ball. He tosses it to his right hand and it spreads into an arc on the way there. Once it has all gathered again in his right hand, the entire ball bursts forth as the rest of the attack joins it from behind. Method: A torrent of water (~3ft) shoots toward the target. As this happens, gravel-like rocks and some small boulders also push up from the ground beneath the target. Range: 10ft Duration: Near instantaneous hit; it is 10 seconds of actual rapids and then putters out quickly. Damage: The torrent causes a blunt-force hit that shoves the target in one way and leaves them soggy. The rocks cause loose, uneven footing to promote a slip or a least slow the target down. Usage: Once per battle.Eternal Sailor Attack: Big Water Rapids: Class Six! Sailor Tethys calls out the attack's name and a churning bundle of water, whitewater, and small rocks mix in his left hand, vaguely shaped like a ball. His right hand now hovers above the left, and then closes around the ball, effectively sucking it up into a finite point. Kneeling quickly, Sailor Tethys "punches" the ground to spring the attack. Method: Three torrents of water (~5ft) shoots toward the target. Range: 20ft Duration: Near instantaneous first hit, then the others follow quickly after; it is 15 seconds of actual rapids/rocks and then putters out quickly. Damage: Three torrents cause blunt-force damage that can each shove the target in one way and leaves them drenched. In addition to the gravel-like rocks and small boulders, there are now quite substantial rocks protruding from the ground that reach just above the water level; the target may be thrown into them, over them, around them, or whathaveyou. Usage: Once per battle.

Other Notes:Sekani is based on my beloved Yuniko by the same name! His official art will be used as the main reference.Tattoos - From the reference, minus the stomach. They may be changed/interpretted somewhat, according to the colorist's preference. Body Type - Fit, but only a little muscle definition from a not-so-great diet and an irregular exercise schedule. (It's a wonder he doesn't get himself broken a lot more while playing sports.)

All you need to fix up here are the attack usage limits. I don't think Tethys' Super and Eternal attacks should have more than one use, since even though they have a pretty short duration they can do quite a bit of damage.

Ah, sounds very reasonable, Mouse~ Especially once you point it out, haha. Thanks for keeping us all balanced. <3 That said, edited as requested!
