My character for Soldat's Medieval role-play http://www.animeonline.net/f57/medie...pm-join-19661/ Name: Louisa
Nickname: Hotaru –meaning: Firefly-
Age: 21
Element: Fire
Gender: Female
Weapon: Double long sword and crossbow
Appearance: Petite and slim, she gives the image of being a weak city girl, as someone who can be easily taken advantage of. Her hazel eyes would flash dangerously when she starts to get irritated. Her figure leaves much to be desired, and it aids her much in her course of work. She usually prefers to wear a modest long-sleeved blouse and cargo pants, topped with a dark brown cloak. Measuring about 4 foot 8, Louisa tends to be shorter than children in their teenaged years. Lightly tanned skin and a foreign look helps her disguise herself as a wandering trader
Personality: Quiet, Louisa tends to keep her counsel to herself, but when she decides that an acquaintance is worth making a friend, she would open up more about herself. She prefers to rely on her human abilities instead of her elemental ones, reading auras is a last resort when she decides that she is not able to discern friend from foe. She will always respond to a plea of help, be it to heal someone, or rescue a child from the wolves.
Occupation: As a trader, Louisa can go just about anywhere in the world. No one would question a trader attempting to get rich by searching or a mystical item. She deals more with farm goods, and herb lore.
Weaknesses: She is too impulsive, usually does not think over what strategies she can use against a foe while in normal life and in battle. She tends to day dream too much, making her a vulnerable target.
Abilities: Firefly, using that ability, she can dart around at the speed of light to make an escape or catch an opponent unawares
Bio: She was born into a family that dealt with the trading of their remote village located near the Elrose Ocean. At the age of ten, all children were to be sent to be an apprentice in fishing, smithing, farming, herding, or trading. Being the daughter of the head tradesmen, it was expected that Louisa would be the one that her father handed the reins over to. At the age of ten, the herbalist spotted Louisa as one with talent in that field, it came about as a surprise to the entire village, never had the herbalist ever taken an apprentice in all her thirty years of work. Her family vehemently opposed to the decision, despite the village chief’s approval of the apprenticeship, and vowed to get even one day. When she turned 18, her vision and sense of smell, hearing, and touch greatly increased. She confided in her mentor and was advised to flee before any of the superstitious villagers found out. Weeks later, she suddenly woke up, her entire body torched with fire, with the village being burned down. She grabbed whatever supplies she could and ran off into the darkness. Shamed by her inability to control the fire that lay in her, she put herself through many hardships and learnt to fend for herself in the wild

Name: Hotaru Wu
Age: 17
Dojo/City: Saru City
Height:5'2
Weight:42kg
Side: Neutral
Ki/Chi/Aura colour: Shades of Brown and Green and a hint of red
Appearance: Small and lithe, the dull colours of her dark green blouse and brown pants keep unwonted attention away from her. She occasionally dons a traditional dark-red Chinese outfit for night outings The first feature most notice, her eyes are bright yellow, resembling gold, and always hold a mischievous glint. With lightly tanned skin and oriental looks, She can easily be mistaken for an outsider, but is of a pure Chinese lineage. Well endowed, with high cheek bones and thick charcoal-black hair that cascades down her back in layers, she can manipulate her looks to her advantage, to buy over any man, with dirty thoughts of course. she is nimble on her feet and just the way traditional Chinese like it, her feet are dainty
Personality: Though a fun-loving female, she generally keeps to herself, only opening up to several fellow Dojo mates and close friends. Hotaru is wary of placing her trust in anyone, but once she decides to do so, she would be loyal to her friend until a situation pushes her do otherwise. Beware though, when she is pushed past her boundaries of calm and into anger. she can be very aggressive when provoked, and will not hesitate to inflict any hurt on those who truly wish her harm. But under her seemingly cold exterior, lies a heart of gold. Hotaru will never hesitate to help any in need, willing to plunge her life to respond to a plea for help, be it to heal someone, or save another from bullies. she is also impulsive at times, more so when she is angry
Hobbies: Hotaru regularly takes frequent trips to the forest to observe wild life, their contribution to nature and the way they defend themselves or attack another. She also collects plants specimens to learn more about their properties and how they would benefit others. Singing is also a favourite past-time of hers, but only unsuspecting passer-bys have ever chanced upon her while singing
MA Moves:
1.Primate Chatter. Manipulating her voice box, she would produce a series of disconcerting chattering-like noises (which can be altered to suit her needs) to throw her opponent off concentration. At the same time, she would be leaping around in a seemingly random manner before taking the opponent by surprise with a sudden leap into the air, spinning thrice in quick succession to gain momentum and finally swinging her leg to hit a soft spot, neck etc.
2.Twisting Confusion. First leap towards the opponent, and when inches from them, twisting muscles to change direction. All done in rapid succession to confuse the the opponent. When it is least expected, aim for the spot and don't change direction at the moment, before repeating the process again.
3.Subtle Loss. When attacked, instead of retaliating, defend. When the opponent is exhausted and expects no retaliation, dart in and hit them hard in the stomach, for they will lose their breath.
4.Tactless Fighter. Just leaping into the fight with apparent thoughtlessness and using both hands and feet to attack the opponent. [hand - neck (in hopes of paralysis). Feet - legs (sweep them off their feet) / Stomach (force them to double over and be vulnerable to attacks until they recover)
Weapon: Whip
Ki Techniques:
Monkey See, monkey Do. Ki that takes multiple forms of unpredictable monkeys of different sizes, the larger ones would first attack from all directions and the smaller one would follow suit to inflict damage
Fingertip Absorption. All living things have Ki. Ki that has been collected for her benefactor - nature, will be gathered at her fingertips, or occasionally when she has no other choice, selectively from a group of healthy living humans who can afford the lost of Ki. After which, she would direct the Ki to where it is needed.
Darting Plants. Ki take the shape of thorny yet deceptively beautiful plants, and fling thorn-like darts at unsuspecting people
Bio: She had been abandoned from young and turned to the forest for refuge. Everything that she had learnt, had come from interacting with animals that had grown close to her, or by observing the animals as they went about their natural business. She had a tight bond with the monkeys in the forest, for they were most alike to humans, hence her monkey-like abilities. Then nine, she was chanced upon by the Master of the Saru City Dojo while collecting food reserves. The Master took her in on account of her affinity with monkeys and was aptly named Hotaru, for she had a disconcerting ability to move quickly from one place to another and lit up the world of the older folks with her gentle care. However, none but herself knows her name. Or knew her name, for the years in the forest had limited her speech. And even though she had quickly picked up neccessary conversation skills, she never quite remembered her real name, but only her surname. So far, she is still only a student of the Dojo, but aims to be the sensei one day.
