[cs=2][atrb=width,585] APPEARANCE SUMMARY -- Akira is tall in stature, standing at five feet and nearly eleven inches, with thin, well-disguised muscles. She is by no measure lanky, but could be described more as elegant with her elongated features. Her skin is fairly pale and clear as day without a single freckle in sight, anywhere, although scars are fairly common along her back, and a few making their way down her arms. Her eyes are a pale blue, somewhat purple-y due to her demonic nature, sometimes bordering on silver depending on the day and the lighting. Her hair is a deep chocolate brown, thick and it has grown long enough to cascade down her back in wind-torn waves. Her features are delicate, feminine, and by most standards, she is viewed as decently attractive. | |
[cs=2][atrb=width,585] PERSONALITY STRENGTHS -- Calm, laid-back, good in a crisis situation, determined, dedicated, compassionate. WEAKNESSES -- Very much a worrier, a bit on the quiet side, sarcastic, stubborn. DETAILED -- Akira is a very calm, laid-back and level-headed person. She is good in a crisis situation as it takes a lot to really rattle her. She can keep a clear head and keep her emotions at bay - not forever, just for a while - whenever a situation really calls for it. She can swallow her tears, lock away her anger temporarily in order to properly assess and deal with a situation. Of course, this doesn't lead to very many good situations afterwords - usually a freak-out in private of some sort - but it works well on the field, and she is konwn as someone to count on in her squadron. Akira is a laid-back person; she knows how to smile and laugh when she needs to or else she'd go crazy from the seriousness of the state of the world at the moment. She can be made angry one easy way, though; through the use of the people that she cares about. If someone she loves is threatened or hurt, it's an instant switch that gets turned and anger just bubbles up. Akira does not make decisions lightly; she calculates the risks and is quite cautious. She has learned, from past mistakes, of the hardships that may follow being reckless or careless and doesn't particularly want to make those mistakes again. After all, who likes getting hurt? For those that she loves, she is always cautious and concerned for them, too. If they don't worry about their decisions, and calculate their risks, she will do it for them. Although she wouldn't stop someone from taking a risk that they really want to take, she would worry about it incessantly and hope that it all turned out for the best when the dust settled. She is very empathetic in this way, always thinking about, looking out for and caring about those that she gets close to - even those that she has worked with for a long time end up on her friends list. Akira is a dedicated soldier, and very much loves her job. She's good at what she does and she wouldn't trade it for anything, as she is quite fond of her position, and those that she fights alongside. She is fiercely loyal to those in the Northern Division. She wouldn't stand for anyone belittling them, threatening them or anything of that sort. She is determined to be a good addition to the team and works to earn her keep; she's not lazy, always striving for the best, being somewhat of a perfectionist in that regard. She is a very determined fighter, determined to uphold the honour and pride of the north, and during every battle she fights with all that she has. She can't easily be deterred, she is far too determined for someone to get inside her head and play around with her emotions. She is good at blocking people out, being a solid wall. She can deal with her own demons later; she's good at being people's rocks, at listening and giving helpful advice. One way that Akira deals with her hardships is through her sense of humour - it is incredibly easy to make her laugh, and she lights up at jokes that she thinks is funny. It's a perfect way to up her mood, make her smile and drown away any bad feelings. She has a tendency to be a bit sarcastic, with her dry wit; she can have full conversations that make absolutely no sense, in complete sarcasm, with the utmost seriousness until they are finished, at which point she usually erupts into a fit of laughter. With her sarcasm comes a large bit of stubbornness; once she's made up her mind it's almost impossible to set her straight. Even if she fully knows that what she is fighting for is wrong, in an argument she wouldn't back down until she won, just to prove her point. | |
[cs=2][atrb=width,585] HISTORY FAMILY -- Akira has a large family, comprised of demons and half-demons thanks to her father. Parents -- Hachirou - Father, Kitsune demon, aged 921 years. Emi - Mother, Kama-Itachi demon, deceased at age 521. Full Siblings -- Isamu - Eldest brother, first-born. Kama-Itachi demon. Currently 521 years old. Kaoru - Older brother, second-born.

Yue - Youngest sister, twelfth-born. Half-Kitsune demon. Currently 350 years old. These are all of the siblings that Akira is aware of; she has long lost contact with her father, and it is possible that she has more half-siblings than she cares to know. IMPORTANT FIGURES -- Tsubaki Tsubaki is the demon who "adopted" Akira after she left her home. She is a full-fledged Doku Kurohyou demon, very powerful, although she is incredibly peaceful and very much enjoys company of any race. Currently she is 812 years old. LIFE STORY -- Akira was born as the fifth member of her family, with five brothers and sisters before her; all full-fledged demons, thanks to their parents pure demon blood that ran through their veins. her father, Hachirou, a Kitsune demon was always tough on his children; he expected the best out of them, even at young ages, and wished them all to grow strong to be able to proudly carry on his lineage. Akira was very much in the shadows of her siblings. She wasn't the most physical strong, quite the opposite actually; she was thinner, leaner than all of her siblings. She was quicker, stealthier than them, but didn't have many other traits that matched theirs. She had a strong magical ability unlike the others, though, which was the one thing that allowed her to stand out. One child was born to her family after her, a younger sister. Akira always expected her parents to have more children, and if they had the chance they probably would have. That is, until her mother died. It was at the hands of a fire demon, one that Akira was unaware of. Her mother was a soldier for the army, and so death was always a possible option when she went to fight. Akira just never expected it to actually happen. With her mother gone, her father only got harder on his children, much more strict. It got to the breaking point where Akira had had enough. She said her goodbyes to her siblings, packed up her meager belongings and fled. She felt like a criminal for doing it, but she really saw no other options. She was young and had nowhere to go, so she couldn't get far. She was travelling through the forest, tired and hungry, living off spring water she could find and the occasional game that she managed to kill and cook. After a couple of weeks of narrowly escaping a few demon attacks and "living off the land", Akira was found by Tsubaki. She was a demon in her own right, nearly as old as her father, and was quite strong. She never had any children of her own, she said that she never was able to. She seemed to see something worth saving in Akira as she brought her into her home and adopted her as one of her own. She taught Akira how to live, how to hide. Tsubaki was easily able to live peacefully, avoiding anyone who wanted to harm her or her kind, as she generally did not like fighting. She did think it was necessary for protection though, and wanted to protect Akira. So she showed her different techniques to harness her demonic energy, to make full use of her abilities controlling the wind. It was a slower process, filled with a lot of healing and love as well. Tsubaki wasn't concerned with tactical results so much as emotional ones; she knew Akira was in a rough spot and needed time. As she got stronger, physically and emotionally, Akira learned how to protect herself better. Not only from actual attacks, but from other people too. She learned how to use her own abilities the best way that she could. Eventually she grew to a spot where she had learned everything that she could from Tsubaki. Even though she loved her and wanted to stay with her, she needed to do something. She was restless and needed to actually develop a life of her own. So with a heavy heart she left the safety of the forest den in search of the cities, where she could find work and begin her life. It didn't all work out quite as planned, however. Her first brush with work came from a bounty hunter job, though. It proved to be pretty easy work - her stealth and speed came in handy, and she was able to immobilize people pretty easy by making shallow, but painful, cuts along their bodies with wind. She was able to actually make a decent living. Akira never second-guessed the people she took jobs from; she didn't ask questions, and neither did they. She never thought that she might get set up to be killed on her own. The man who wanted her dead was nothing other than an ordinary human. She had captured his brother, or something, who was now rotting away due to his crimes. She was supposed to capture this demon and bring him in; instead, he was waiting for her and a battle ensued. Neither side was able to give an inch, and it was the toughest battle Akira had ever faced. She managed to wound him enough to slow him down, and give her the chance to run like hell. She got the hell out of that life, and upon getting her first chance decided to make a radical change in lifestyle. She was going to follow in her mother's footsteps and ally herself with the North. It was a fairly huge lifestyle change, especially with the depletion of the army. It wasn't too hard for her, and especially in the beginning all her tasks were incredibly minor. She managed to work hard, though, and attain a fairly high position. She works hard, despite what some people say about her army, or about the North in general. She's a bit of a perfectionist but is beginning to lighten up around her comrades and the people that she works with, and for. | |
[cs=2][atrb=width,585] MISCELLANEOUS ABILITIES -- Because I'm a bit lazy, this is a break-down of her abilities... Nothing is too low, due to the amount of years she's had to hone her skills. Physical Strength: Medium Pure brute strength is not really Akira's style. She can dish out attacks with the best of them, but any punch or strike with a blade alone isn't the most powerful. To power-up her attacks she has to use her wind manipulation skills. Magical Strength: High Akira has much control over her magic, which is wind. She can create razor-sharp winds that could cut a large tree in bits with enough power placed in it. She can create tornadoes and 'ride' the wind, done best in demon form, to travel at very fast speeds, concealed. Defensive Strength: Medium Akira can take hits decently well; she's good at guarding, but cannot take full blows from more powerful attacks. She's much better at evading, instead of simply blocking before returning attacks. Speed: High Akira is able to quickly cover distances on foot; and using her magical abilities, she can manipulate winds to give her even more speed, even allowing her to "ride" the wind when her limbs tire. Stealth: High Due to her ability to easily manipulate wind-currents to hide traces of her scent, learning the ways of stealth was a must for Akira early on. She's able to easily conceal herself in crowds, track individuals quietly and secretively as well as tail anyone with general ease. Her ability to remain concealed, and avoid enemies, was of great use to counteract her low physical strength. Accuracy: Medium-High Akira has a good eye, and when throwing knives or having to hit a hard-to-hit target, she has pretty good accuracy and is known to be a fairly good shot. Stamina: High This demon does not tire easily; her body is able to endure a lot before breaking down and needing to rest. She can run on nothing but hot air for a couple of days before needing a break, and some supplies. Intelligence: High Akira is good with plans, coming up with ideas and seeing through enemy plots. She's someone to be counted on and can weigh in well whenever her tactical opinion is needed. RANDOM FACTS -- 1. Akira is extremely fond of tea, and is known to often drink it on her down time. 2. The way to her heart is with food. She loves anything hearty, sweet or rich. 3. She loves having her hair down, but always ties it back in some sort of elaborate braid for battle. 4. She has a mild fear of fire (gets more anxious against enemies who use it) that she has never told anyone. 5. She loves using an array of weapons - swords, hammers, crossblades, sometimes just her claws in demon form. |

ROLEPLAY SAMPLE
(I PROMISE my posts don't usually suck this bad... I'm just terrible with examples, I never know in what context to write. x.x)
It was, surprisingly, a very quiet day today for Akira. She had done her job, and had gotten off-duty around half an hour ago; she still had another half an hour for lunch. She had successfully brewed up a nice, steaming pot of tea, made herself a hearty lunch - which, if anyone walked by, would most likely look like it was made for at least two, especially not just for one little lady - and had sat down outside, getting ready to consume her small feast. The wind was nice, soft; she could smell some flowers on it, probably off in the distance, but she let the scent envelop her, allowing it to cling to and linger on her skin. She loved smelling of fresh flowers, especially her favourites, orchids. Today though, some plain wildflowers would have to do.
Akira let her toes sink into the grass, enjoying the cool feeling that it gave her. It had rained earlier this morning, cooling off the earth. Luckily, she had come out her at just the right time, as the water had sunk gently into the earth, keeping her from getting wet. Perfect. She sunk her teeth into her meal, polishing it off in what must have been record timing. She did love her groceries, this one. After finishing her meal, Akira really was at a loss as what to do with herself. She made her way down to the small stream a few feet away, stepping into it and splashing about a little. It was small things like this, childlike actions that kept her from exploding after a hard days work. She grinned, wiggling her toes and playing around.
Fulfilled and successfully cleared of any negative thoughts, Akira returned to work, refreshed, revitalized and ready to take on the day.
