Name: Amaris Mallette
Nickname: Ammy, Amarillis, Mary -- well. She'll respond to just about anything! Even 'HEY, ********', although that one's begrudgingly.
Age: 19
Birthday: September 23rd
Sign: Libra
Gemstone: Sapphire
Blood Type: AB+
Fav. Food: Sugar peas!
Hated Food: Those really dry cookies, you know the ones, they kind of taste like gumdrops
School: Destiny City University
Hobbies:
Anime: Reading manga isn't an authentic experience - Amaris has a difficult time visualizing things in motion when they're only shapes on a page - and god only knows how difficult it is to get decent copies of the volumes; so Ama does the only reasonable thing instead...she watches lots, and lots, of anime. Subbed? Dubbed? Doesn't matter. Sometimes she heats up a thing of popcorn and curls up in her bed, with a blanket, and watches anime for...well. Not too long at all -- her attention span is nasty. But there's no shame in dabbling in a little of everything, is there? She likes slice of life stuff and upbeat magical girl series the most, but she's never met a series she didn't like.
(Except Bible Black. She's pretty sure that was illegal on some level.)
Shiny Collecting: OOOOH LOOK A SHINY THING. Amaris likes to pick up anything shiny she can off the ground, pocket it, and take it home and put it in a box -- cheap trinkets, lost jewelry, shiny stones and bird feathers. Sure, maybe it's a bit of a hoarding tendency, but she keeps them all sealed and washed: and they're pretty, aren't they? Her collection fills up a few jewelry boxes, since when they fill up, she sells the things she likes least over to pawn shops. It's a tiny little side hobby, but...she likes the glitter of the things.
Liveblogging: Amaris doesn't make any money off of it -- she's only 18, why the hell would she -- but she's a semi-popular liveblogger on Tumblr who does quick reviews of anything and everything people request. She'll sample anything and everything once, or maybe twice, and there's a certain appeal to that.
Virtues:
Carefree: Don't worry too hard about it, it's all going to work out! Amaris likes to go with the flow and just have a good time, and she doesn't stress too much about anything that doesn't jive with her flow. What's the use of stressing too crazy-difficult? Just have a good time, just relax, just believe it's all going to make sense without stressing yourself out of your mind. She has an easier time with her schooling than some people because she doesn't lose sleep over allnighters; and she's not self-conscious in the least. Why worry about how you look to others? Enjoy what you do, and everyone else will to. Always the first to do anything silly: that's Amaris.
Aware: Amaris is pretty dang good at paying attention to the things going on around her. She's aware, she's alert, she keeps with the flow: how else will she always know what else is hip and happenin'? Amaris isn't stupid or unobservant; she's not someone who likes to stress, but that doesn't mean she doesn't keep an eye out for things that might make her stress in the offchance she needs to. She's reasonably observant and can usually notice problems before they really erupt into disaster, at which point she'll usually attempt a little damage control. If everyone's all freaked out and stuff, all flipping their lids: who's going to be able to have any fun?
Flaws:
Flighty: It's hard for Amaris to focus on any one thing too long -- she's always fluttering off to the next big thing, the new important thing. She jumps ship with her interests before she can ever get too connected: it's not on purpose, really, but why tether yourself down to something? She never stays with one thing too long, and staying attached to any one thing for too much gives her metaphorical hives. Her major is, as of yet, undeclared: she doesn't want to tie herself down in that way, and unless you make plans spur-of-the-moment or INCREDIBLY in advance Amaris will back out.
Loud: Amaris is a person with a Big Personality. She's loud, she yells, she has trouble keeping her voice down in the library, and you are going to hear her regardless of if you want to. She has one setting; that setting is LOUD, and she's always standing out from the crowd. It's...well. It is what it is, and what it is: that's not pleasant. She loves to be the first in line, the brightest and boldest and most standing-out person in the room...sure, Amaris is carefree, but she HAAATES being passed over when she wants something. She's gotta make sure she's noticed: bad or good, not important.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
Eyes: Colour, shape. No heterochromia (different-coloured eyes), please!
Hair: Colour, style, accessories. Some artists prefer references, others prefer being given style words - you might want to keep this in mind
Face: Shape, features -- tell us if your character has a round or oval or heart-shaped face, freckles or not, big ears or not.
Clothes: Big, jangly bracelets, necklaces with charms, crop tops, baggy shorts. Pretty much purely monochromatic.

Knight Title: Anakeion Page of Castor Challenge: "I won't let go." Alt: "This pillar's looking real killer!" Uniform: See art! Weapon -- Page: A toy pillar. Nothing special about it - it's made of plastic, and it's not going to really do much. At least it's solid plastic? Squire: A shortstaff, about two and a half feet long; much the same as the toy pillar, just lengthier, more ornate, and not plastic -- it is made of thick glass instead. At this stage, Anakeion's magic manifests: by placing both hands on her staff, the staff 'freezes' itself to her hands via a covering of ice that covers up to her mid-forearms. Her hands cannot be forcibly removed from the staff for as long as she is channeling. While her magic is activated, Anakeion's attacks are doubled in force, as if two of her were sharing the exact same physical space. At this stage, she may channel for 30 seconds. Knight: A longstaff with elaborate crystal 'heads', bearing the same design as the original toy pillar. This staff is slightly taller than the Knight herself, and is made of metal. At this stage, Anakeion's magic manifests the same way as it did for Squire: by placing both hands on her staff, the staff will 'freeze' itself to her hands via a covering of ice reaching up to her mid-forearms, and her hands cannot be forcibly removed from the staff as long as she is channeling. While her magic is activated, Anakeion hits twice as hard as she would normally: all force from her attacks is doubled, as if two of her are sharing the same physical space. At this stage, Anakeion may channel for 50 seconds.

Critting your face as you requested.
No weird innuendos like I do with Vamps because wtf no you're like my child.
Civ stuff
Hobbies
Anime - If you're going to mention Amaris not liking manga, I really want to know more about why. Does she have preferred genres or studios, anything she won't watch, any favorite series?
Shiny Collecting - How big is her collection? Does she do anything with it, or does she just take comfort in having things?
Liveblogging - Looks good to me.
Virtues
Carefree - This virtue is four sentences long and every sentence says the exact same thing. Please be more specific about how Amaris's carefree attitude influences her daily life. Does she have an easy time with school because she doesn't worry too hard about anything? Is she good at providing advice to friends because she's so optimistic? Is she the life of the party, always the first person to start dancing or try karaoke because she's not self-conscious?
Aware - You could do with adding a few more things about this trait and how Amaris benefits from it. Is she able to anticipate problems and respond to them before they get out of controls? Is she particularly perceptive in social situations?
Flaws
Flighty - I like how this flaw is reflected in her hobby write-ups! You might want to go into more detail about how this flaw causes problems for her - does she have a tendency to back out of plans at the last minute? Does she have a short attention span for classwork? Is she having trouble picking a major?
Loud - I think that saying she's hard to pin down is lazy. If you think her profile has gaping holes in it, add another virtue/flaw combo and figure out what she's actually like. razz I think that you could also go into more detail about this trait - is she just vocally loud, or does she draw attention to herself in other ways? Does she talk over people and have trouble waiting her turn? What about this trait really makes people dislike her?
