"It does not do to leave a live dragon out of your calculations, if you live near him."
-J. R. R. Tolkien
 Name: Talia Chu
Nickname: Tal, Chu
Age: 18
Birthday: April 5
Sign: Aries
Gemstone: Ruby
Blood Type: AB-
Fav. Food: Small cakes, and anything relatively spicy. She loves different kinds of tea, and though she doesn't love the taste of coffee, she loves the sophisticated feel it gives her.
Hated Food: She's not particularly picky, but anything chocolate is a no no.
School: Destiny City University
Hobbies:
Fan Dancing: Though she enjoys watching many types of dance, Talia has taken a special liking to fan dancing. She is currently learning on her own through videos and books. She can often be seen practicing in a park, or any other open, public place. Talia's fans are a sunset of red, orange, and yellow, and have a small dragon tassle on the end. Talia discovered this love via the good old television. One day she was watching a show and some professional Chinese fan dancers came on screen. Seeing people who looked like her was an inspiration for her- she was completely captivated and has loved it since. As a result, she's even taken a few dance classes in other genres.
Arcade Fighter Games: Yes, Talia is an avid fighter. In the game shops, that is. She is constantly seen at the arcades duking it out on the latest fighter games; a personal favorite of hers being Mortal Kombat. When she was younger, her family would always pass a family-owned arcade on the way to school. Eventually she decided to bravely visit it for a birthday party. Talia is very serious while playing, but does not mind rubbing her victory in her opponent's face very extraneously. Weirdly enough, she doesn't play any other games- nothing more than arcade fighter games when she occasionally visits her local arcade. She isn't a game connoisseur by any means, and approaching her as such will greet you with quite a few blank stares.
Tennis: Taken up due to her father's request, Talia is quite the contender when it comes to tennis. Her father put her in it when she was younger, and she simply stayed in it due to her young age and inability to choose whether or not she continued. As time went on Talia began to enjoy it more and more- eventually she found that she enjoyed it for herself and not for her dad. She wants to try out for the tennis team at her school at some point. Her father is very pleased with this turn out, and while he is not at most of her games, he is very supportive. He buys most of her equipment, and pays for all fees she may have. Talia's particular racket is black with a few red stripes.
Virtues:
Ooh, let's try that: Talia is always open for new things. She is always first in line to try that new pickle flavored ice cream, even though she knows it will taste gross. She also loves encouraging others to try new things! Talia is very adventurous and always up for a new challenge, even if it's too hard. In this way, she sometimes comes off as arrogant, but really just wants to beat the standard and be the best she can be. She doesn't necessarily seek out challenges, but will always take them.
Well that's the capital of...: Talia is exceedingly studious. She works very hard on all of her projects, and while she doesn't always plan accordingly (starting a 3 month project 1 week before the due date...), she will stay up as late as necessary to finish the work according to her perfectionist needs. Anything below a B- is the dumps for her, and she will often scolder herself for doing poorly. She's not necessarily intelligent, or even the smartest kid in the classroom, she is simply studious and works hard. It does not come naturally to her- she works for it.
New Bold Flavor!: Afraid of asking that cute guy out? Perhaps there's a cool looking tree to climb, but it's much too tall to be safe? Never fear, Talia Chu is here! Talia is bold and outgoing. She doesn't mind asking a complete stranger for directions, nor would she mind skydiving (in fact, she's always wanted to try ...) To a reasonable extent, she lacks the insecurity that prevents people from putting themselves out there. It also means that she'll talk to the shy kid in the corner in order to make him/her feel more welcome- she doesn't use her boldness to ostracize others.
I Last Longer than a Twinkie!: Talia has a surprising amount of endurance despite her small stature. She's an exercise-holic; exercise gives you endorphins and endorphins make you happy, right? "I'm too tired" is not a phrase accepted to Talia! It's not like Talia never runs out of juice, but as long as it's there, she'll put her best foot forward. This also isn't to say that she never runs out. She does have bad days, sick days, etc.
Flaws:
Would you Listen to me?: Talia feels as though she should always speak her thoughts and opinions, and make sure it's heard. The real problem is that once you get Talia going, she's like a landslide. In class she's the kid the teacher scolds for whispering during lectures- she's the type of person who thinks best when she's talking, communicating. Her mind connects things through conversation, which means she doesn't exactly know how to appreciate silence. She also texts like a mad-man because of this.
Tempered Like a Shrew: Talia is a spicy hot-tempered girl. She gets frustrated and angry very quickly, especially when it comes to competition. There is a slight air of class- no screaming and cursing- she's just not exactly a believer in "if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all." If something really bad goes down, she's been known to have a meltdown or two. It's childish and she is aware of the childish behavior, but its not something she's learned to calm down yet. It takes a bit of soothing to bring her down afterwards.
Let's See It ALL: Because of her endurance, Talia will drag you all over. It's definitely not like she's doing it purposely. She simply doesn't realize that not everyone runs at the pace of the energizer bunny. She will run you up and down, merely due to oblivious bliss and adventure. Once she does notice you're not keeping up, she'll slow down, but until then you'll simply have to deal with it.
One Upper: Are you learning to play tennis? Awesome- Talia's mastered it. Did you get an A on that test? Talia got an A+. Talia is constantly trying to one up others, and always tries to be the best at anything she does. The spotlight belongs to her and without realizing it, she hogs it. This is her diva stage and you're just the background tree.

"A dragon's heart burns fiercely, even in the face of evil"
- S.G. Rogers
Sailor Scout Attack: Draconis Breath of Flame (offfensive)
Descripion: Talia puts her hands in the dragon position and then follows up with a diamond in front of her mouth. She then inhales a large amount of air, then blows outward through the diamond, creating a fiery flamethrower that simulates a fire breathing dragon.
Effects: Scorches any one enemy of her choice.
Range: About five feet from her hands. It can be shot in direction, but once shot, she cannot move.
Backlash: Sphere is implemented in her hands, and as such, any damage inflicted on her hands will hurt trifold after using this attack. The flamethrower cannot move in any direction, as it can only shoot directly in front of her hands. It takes so much concentration that she herself cannot move around either.
Duration: Talia can only keep this attack up for about 10 seconds.
Super Sailor Scout Attack: Draconis Sea of Flame (Offensive)
Description: Relatively same process, but Talia no longer needs to use her hands, the flames simply come from her mouth, like a real dragon. This gives her the ability to pivot around, as it requires less focus. Thus, she can scorch more than one enemy at a time. Also goes about six feet instead of five.
Effects: Scorches multiple enemies.
Range: A six foot radius around her in all directions
Backlash: She cannot protect herself during this attack, leaving her completely defenseless. She can also only use it once per battle. She can only hit 2-3 enemies with this "beam." After that, they have no effect on anyone else they hit, save for a slight tingling of the skin.
Duration: About 30 seconds.
notes; about :08 seconds in is what it looks like
Eternal Sailor Attack: Draconis Fatal Dive (offensive) Locked!
Description: Talia shouts "Draconis ... Fatal ...," while the silouette of her dragon appears behind her. A western dragon made of flames fills up the silouette, and then "flies" up towards the sky. She points (dramatically, of course) at her dragon, then pivots half her body and points at the enemy of her choice, and shouts "DIVE!" The dragon then swoops down onto the enemy as if hunting for prey.
Effects: Completely encompasses the enemy, burning them everywhere. If the enemy is strong enough, the least they will come out with are first degree burns. The effects are similar to Jupiter Thunder Dragon! except with flames, not electricity.
Range: The dragon can fly anywhere, but can only attack one person at a time.
Backlash: Requires an immense amount of energy and makes Talia only capable of moving afterwards. This means no attacks, no means of defense, etc. It is a final move that can only be used in times of desperate struggles. She has just enough energy to stay in senshi form, but that's about the limit of her power.
Duration: Any amount of time. Dragon disappears after impact.
notes; reference of dragon
about :20 seconds in is how she points
BIG NOTE!!: All three attacks work regardless of weather conditions!

 "Come not between the dragon, and his wrath."
-King Lear (Shakespeare) More Info on Talia:
Nice Bod' Girl: It's no accident that Talia is in good shape. With the various sports she does, she naturally has a nice physique. Lately she's been trying to eat more healthily to compliment this lifestyle too- she really does try hard for the physique, its not just magically there. However, Talia doesn't obsess over her weight. She isn't one of those "oh my god, I'm so fat, let's go for a run!" type of girls. She's simply very athletic and loves to exercise; her physique shows it.
Those shoes are so cute: Need to know what color best matches your eyes? How about a shirt that matches that odd colored skirt of yours? Talia is your girl. She knows what's in, what's out, and what will never come back in style. Her clothes are always tastefully picked out and she always offers advice to those who ask.
I won't say I'm in Love~: Talia tells everyone "I'm fine being single for now," but deep down she is very traditionally romantic. She loves flowers, chocolates and cheesy romantic comedies. In a way, she's very deluded- always searching for prince charming- "the perfect guy." She doesn't like the idea of flings, and would never have a false relationship- far too much of a "goody two shoes" for that. For her the romance has to be very traditional (boy asks girl, dates at resteraunts, knights saving damsels...).
Possessions:
Tennis Racket: As mentioned above, Talia has a tennis racket, which is black with a few red sections and a red handle. (similar to this). She has a spare racket as well, but takes very good of her rackets so she hardly has to use it. The spare racket is bright yellow.
Dancing Fans: Also as mentioned above, Talia has two sunset colored fans, with a small dragon tassle on the end. Bought at a specialized dance store without her father's knowledge. They are a little worn from overuse. There are gold embellishments along the wooden edges of the fan's skeletal structure.
Glasses: Talia has a set of thick rimmed glasses that she almost never wears. She instead opts for non-colored contacts. The glasses are black with a small red dot on either side. Nothing special, simply a possession. Wears them when necessary. She doesn't dislike how they look, she just doesn't like the clunkiness. Contacts are much easier to her.
Backpack: Talia carries this thing everywhere. She somehow manages to plan so that everything fits in it- even for school. If she goes on trips, you can bet she has it. For some odd reason though, it doesn't look a day past when she bought it. (reference)
Closet:
Talia's closet, and all her wonderful clothing items are here

"I want a big house with a moat and dragons and a fort to keep people out!"
-Victoria Beckham
Talia's Family
David Chu: Talia's father. A stern man who makes his living as a lawyer. He is very successful and wishes that Talia be as successful as him. He has a sort of looming presence over Talia, pushing her to do her best, but also limiting her via insecurities. They're not estranged by any means, but they have a relationship that might look strange to outsiders.
He is rather tall with salt and peppered hair cut back. He has mature looking glasses and steely grey-brown eyes.
Dahlia Chu: Talia's mother. She is a very warm loving person, if not a bit tired. Dahlia was a somewhat successful baker who ran two pastry shops. However, after having Talia she realized she chose the life of a mother. She still pops into the bakeries from time to time to help, but she doesn't have nearly as much influence with them as they used to. With their surplus of money, Dahlia became a stay at home mom, and is the one who mostly attends to Talia's parental needs.
She has brown, curly hair that is cut shoulder length. While she loves being a mother, she isn't very good at "motherly" things- gardening, sewing, first aid etc. Dahlia always tries her best though!
Alana Nolan: Talia's grandmother, on mother's side. The only one of Talia's grandparents whom she has ever met. She is very happy, and is in good sorts with both Talia's mother and father. She is also, coincidentally, an excellent tea maker (she tried imparting the skill upon Dahlia and that didn't work very well). Alana's husband died a few years ago from age. When this happened, Dahlia and David decided that it would be safer for Alana to live with them, instead of in a big house by herself.
Her grandmother's hair is significantly grey, and she has many wrinkles- fortunately most of them are laugh lines. She enjoys cooking with Dahlia and Talia.
Living Situation:
Currently, Talia is renting an apartment right outside of DCU with a few friends.
