[center][hider=Appearance] [img]http://i.imgur.com/5C6j1iY.jpg[/img] [/hider][/center] Name: Caligetta Cavallerizzo Age: 14 Appearance: See above Nationality: Italian (Pizzone) Personality: Somewhat brash but incredibly full of bravado and a vital energy, perhaps to a flaw, Caligetta enjoys the company of close friends but disdains crowds and overly friendly strangers, but at the same time is often willing to defend someone she's never met if they're in a lick of trouble. She's very unused to the idea of tresspassing being more then an empty threat and lacks certain mental inhibtions about not ignoring signs telling her not to pass, and is suprsingly good at jumping fences. Has a strong disdain for overly feminine frilly dress-types, but secretly admires the style, though she'd rather spit on her own mother before admitting it. Having lived in a relatively isolated lifestyle for most of her life, she lacks expierence in romance but is quite interested in the concept. Raised in a rural agricultural lifestyle, her only real hobbies being shooting guns and racing horses, she has a general disdain for the certain complexities of a more urban lifestyle, and is often annoyed at not being able to get to a destination as fast as possible or having to wait on cars and traffic. Biography: (Their life as a normal human, and their time as a magical girl) The House (or more accurately barn) of the Cavallerizzo of Pizzone stretches back millenia, family tales suggesting that they had occupied their ranch since Rome fell. Of course, this is highly unlikely, but one must draw their pride from somewhere. In any case, Caligetta grew up in a town seemingly isolated from the metal fingers of time, and despite the TV and telephone she lived a life few in this modern age could. The Cavallerizzo, for at least as long as records traced back, had been horse ranchers, known for their excellent quality horses that had brought the occasional Venetian merchant or Turkish trader to their farm in search of their coursers. While they had diversified into cattle as the market for horses gradually fell, they still were a family known for their equestrian lineage, their family believed to have the last pure bred Neapolitan herd in Italy. Caligetta grew up among these animals and gained a connection to them only a few in our modern world have, racing among the fields, herding cattle, and chasing off local predators with a family revolver, all of which the near constant practice made her incredibly skilled at for her age. Growing up a robust young woman, she won her first horse race on her pony Slow Dancer at age 9, and managed to win a junior shooting competition at 10. Things seemed up for her, until one day, on a ride through the forest, she found herself confronted by some monster, a giant lump of growling fur and wooden spikes and blood, that tore through her beloved Slow Dancer like paper. The beast had begun to approach her until a girl, maybe a few years younger then her, shot an arrow through the creature, rending it in two. The girl helped her up, introduced herself, told her about who she was and what she did, and that by saving her life she was conscripted into this group, that she sadly had no choice in the matter. Putting on a brave face, while mourning her horse, Caligetta agreed, wanting revenge for whatever had taken away Slow Dancer from her. While her savior eventually disappeared, she eventually resolved to move to Rome in order to strike at the heart of the errors, and to join with other magical girls. However, she is also here to step up her horse racing, with her new mount "Trans-Europe Express," and keep on the legacy of Slow Dancer. She has begun her career and has managed to survive sucessfully and gain some degree of power, at least until now. Her focal seed is a metal amulet with hair from Slow Dancer's mane, taken after their first race together. She considers him to have saved her from death at the error's hand, despite the actions of the magical girl who saved her. Experience Level: Magical Girl (First Act) Skills: (Both combat and non combat skills, tend to be relatively intertwined with their normal abilities) Master Equestrian, Skilled Sharpshooter, Good Eyes, Cattle Whisperer, Can Tie a Good Knot, Decent Cook, Deft Survivalist, Quite Agile, Has Literally Been Through This Rodeo Before, Cannot Drive At All, (JK)11/10 Lesbian(/JK?) Magical Power: (First Act) Page of Wands: She has the ability to manifest (and demanifest) two large revolvers at will. These revolvers come fully loaded and are in themselves magical, and can presumably block attacks, though less so then any physical weapon. Bullets shot from these weapons are not fixed in their trajectory, which can be altered or stopped by Caligetta to a significant degree, though they cannot switch directions without turning (they also are much less affected by friction). (First Act) Knight of Wands: She may manifest a mystical sable horse of unknown origins, apparently named Incitatus by what's inscribed into it's bridle, which has an incredible speed, agility, and reflexes, being able to leap between rooftops and gallop at the speed equivalent to a Formula One racecar without suffering negative effects, with only minor losses to turning. This horse can only manifest briefly outside of the near vicinity of it's rider, and attempts by Caligetta to get it to stud have failed, the horse apparently having no interest in other animals for reproductive purposes.
