Welcome to Gaia! ::

Name:Xander Jianmin - (Brother to Jace Jianmin)

Nickname:

Gender/Pronoun: He/Him

Age:20

Birthday:October 16

Sign: Libra

Gemstone: Opal

Blood Type: AB-

Fav. Food: (Optional)A really good spicy curry, but also for fun, any spicy challenge just to see how well he takes it. Also...spicy veggie straws, if you gotta eat veggies they might as well be GOOD>

Hated Food: Boiled Peanuts, have you smelled those things cooking? Also...it's basically a salty refried bean! Gross, those only belong in nachos or burritos

School/Occupation: DCU - does work part time for the ‘Family’ law firm as a file clerk.

Hobbies:
Flute: it’s not a hobby his family was, especially enthusiastic about, especially in the early days when he started out thinking maybe a Recorder would be up his alley. But music is something he absolutely loves, Obo was deemed too expensive and after an ‘incident’ with someone at school trying to use their flute as a Wand for a ‘Witches and Wizard’ event, he managed to get his current flute as a sort of ‘resale’. He’s gotten much better with time, thanks to the patience of his adoptive family and...even more to having an outdoor space to practice. Just don’t make any ‘band camp’ jokes please

Woodwork - His ultimate goal is to one day have a space and place to build miniature houses, ultimately he’d love to have a sort of ‘commune’ where he and his friends will somehow agree to live in tiny houses on a few acres of land. Right now he’s good to talk to about building things for a dorm room or a corner of your house rather than building anything as grand as a house, but he has goals! He helped fix up the shed where he does most of his practice on the flute.

Hiking: When he needs alone time - his method is to go for a hike. The further he can get from people while going at his own pace the better. He remembers it as something his parents used to do too. He’ll go so far as to camp when he has the down time for it, but has a harder time talking other people into doing that with him which he finds very sad.



e.g.

Friendly -- Even if you don’t like him, he probably likes you. If you look remotely like you are having a bad day, he’ll probably be trying to think of something to do to cheer you up. Smiles are something he’s always looking to share with the world, and even better if he can put a smile on your own face. This can include some very eccentric antics on his own part for better or worse, but as long as he gets a smile!

Self Sufficient --As the one frequently reminded by his ‘Mother’ that he is the ‘adopted child’, Xander has learned to be very self sufficient. He can handle cooking simple things in the kitchen. He's been raised in small ways to pick up the pieces and make sure that things get done. Get the garbage out, put the leftovers away, help fix that faucet. Saving money and time for the family, including helping play file clerk once he was old enough to be trusted to put away papers at the firm. Laundry? No problem, though he absolutely cuts corners by trying to keep most of his wardrobe dark.



Flaws:

Self Destructive -- For a variety of reasons, he doesn't see himself as having much value. His role in life is to fill in the spaces for others to succeed, if he himself is, well that’s more by accident than design. If he gets hurt helping someone else? That’s fine, as long as they turn out ok. If he goes hungry because he gave away his lunch? That’s fine too because it's ok if HE goes hungry.

Ridgid --Once he’s made up his mind on something, it’s very hard to change it. He’ll put his feet down no matter what he’s up against so long as he believes he’s doing the right thing. This has led to more than a few arguments with his family, and gotten him hurt in more than a few fistfights to boot, many of which he’s even started because he was being too pig headed to stop and think.



PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION

Hair and eye colors cannot change from civilian to powered form, nor can tattoos or piercings. If your character has a tattoo as a civilian it will appear on the powered art, though will have a glamour to prevent people who have seen both from identifying civilian identities. Hairstyles can change between civilian and powdered form; only Corrupted Senshi have vastly different hair between civilian and powered forms (their hair grows extensively in length!) Unnatural hair and eye color are perfectly fine, and there is no need to say they use hair dye or wear contacts - your character is free to have been born with blue hair if you want. Genetic heterochromia is allowed, but please consider that this is still considered a genetic oddity in our game environment; you are free to play with it but we encourage players to be considerate of this fact! If your character is intended to have different colored eyes due to injury, please make sure you have done adequate research and include relevant information when you post a quest, or PM the shop mule, The Space Cauldron, for help! More information on heterochromia can be found in the FAQ section of the Questing Handbook!

Eyes: upturned eyes give him a very friendly look at all times, His eyes are a pale blue grey in color

Hair: Black - long but for the most part held back for practical reasons. Kept long in tribute of his Younger adoptive sister’s love of practicing braids in the hair of both her older brothers. Fairly adaptive to whatever the artist would like to do if they enjoy hair styles as long as it’s not excessive.

Face: Oval face, a sort of youthful set to his cheeks that just lend him a very cheerful look as a neutral expression.

Skin Tone: Soft, lightly tanned more warm hued than not but fairly pale overall.

Body Type: A small dorito of sorts? Broad shoulders and a slender waist, tall and just starting to lose the last of his awkward years of growing into that said same height.

Clothes: Button Downs to do the family proud, but normally over some kind of t-shirt, hidden designs to be shown off when he’s away from home. Prefers to roll his sleeves up. Likes dark colors, especially charcoals and blacks for his down time but also enjoys splashes of color. He’s absolutely convinced that red and purple can be a great color mix too. That skulls are the coolest thing you can accessorize with, and that dress shoes are secretly tools of unspeakable torture.
Would absolutely love to just wear things like band shirts and loved-to-death bluejeans with converse.

Resentment: the feeling of being treated unfairly.

Sailor Scout Attack: A little Resentful
This attack to a single target produces a small flurry of red petals - when struck with this attack they feel a growing resentment for someone in their life or someone nearby who would normally be considered an Aly. Small slights from the past feel magnified causing the person struck with the attack to feel argumentative or resentful of the target. The result would be decreased focus and, if the target of their resentment is present it may start an argument. - The attack lasts for thirty seconds and can be dodged. It may be used 3 times a day

Super Sailor Scout Attack: Lingering Resentment.
As with his basic attack - it strikes in a small flurry of red petals, however, the effect is magnified. If the party they resent is present they will feel a strong desire to strike them. If they are not present, then they would feel a strong desire to find them with the same intent which would draw them away from their current battle. The effect can be dodged as before and lasts 30 seconds and can be used 2 times a day

Eternal Sailor Attack: Deep Resentment
At this level - the attack is now a small tornado of red petals with a wider reach making it harder to dodge. The party hit by this attack now feels a deep resentment not at a particular person but at their life or some focused aspect of it. It might be resentment focused on being part of the ‘war’ or resentment that they have not progressed as far as they might have. The effect would vary depending on whom was hit. This Resentment becomes for a brief time all-consuming making it hard to focus on anything but the thoughts. They would behave in much the same way as ‘intrusive’ thoughts do, unwelcome and hard to push aside making it temporarily hard to cast a counter-attack. The attack now lasts for 45 seconds and those attempting to aid the afflicted party may still find themselves a target for being lashed out at depending on the nature of the resentment - this ability can be used once per day.
