[b]Name:[/b] Akane Inukai

[b]Age:[/b] 23

[b]Gender:[/b] Female

[b]Servant:[/b] Lancer

[b]Powers/Abilities:[/b] 

[i]Jewel Bomb-[/i] Akane infuses a jewel with mana and throws it at her enemy before it could explode from the energy overload. The shards inflict from moderate to severe damage depending on where they land. Sometimes used as a distraction, the jewel can blind a person if it is aimed properly. The larger the jewel, the more damage it inflicts.

[i]Familiars-[/i] small, origami animals that make little noise as they spy on her enemies. They usually take the shape of small birds, like sparrows or finches. Sometimes, they may take on the forms of snakes or other lithe creatures that can worm their way under doors. They can easily be damaged or destroyed, however.

[i]See through Familiars-[/i] Akane is able to see what her familiars are seeing. Though, this is not very useful, as her familiars are usually destroyed before she sees anything that can benefit her. 

[b]Appearance:[/b] [url=http://static.zerochan.net/Shibuya.Rin.full.1852670.jpg]Click![/url]
Akane usually keeps her long, black hair up in a ponytail, hardly ever letting it down from the tight embrace of a scrunchie. Some of the shorter strands of hair escape her ponytail, drifting down to her face. Her hair may become messy at times due to the many times that she runs her hair through it or plays with it. Standing at 5"6', she is a slender woman due to the fact that she rides her bike wherever she goes. She never wears dresses; the closest thing that she wears to one are skirts.  

[b]Personality:[/b] 
Laid back and calm, Akane isn't the type of person to argue or quarrel. She would rather stand back and watch an argument or fight as she munches on pocky. Patient and friendly, she brushes off insults as if nothing; this does, however, not mean she has enemies. There are several people she dislikes, and even though she tries to be friendly, there are times that she is passive-aggressive. She deals well with stressful situations, almost to the point of people thinking that she does not care. Some people call her lazy and uncaring when it comes to topics she dislikes in school (which is true), but Akane truly doubts that she is nearly as lazy as people think that she is.

She is easily excited when it comes to topics that she likes, such as history or literature. Akane is much like a puppy when it comes down to things that heat up her blood and get her going. Video games like Call of Duty or Battlefield are her favorites-- she often screams with joy through her system's microphone when she wins a game or two. Just as quickly as the rush comes, it goes, and she is once again calm as she usually is.

Akane is terrified of dogs but loves cats and snakes. 

[b]Short Biography:[/b] 
Akane's family knew magic, of course. However, they did not truly appreciate it and did not teach her much about it when she was young. Her mother, who grew tired of being in the company of her father and her, left when she was just six. As she had lost her mother at a young age, her father decided that it was best that there were two people in the family that knew how to use magic to defend themselves instead of one. He taught her his own skill, the production of familiars of whose eyes she could see through, and her mother's skill, Jewel Bomb. Other than that, Akane was taught nothing else; her father believed that she could fend off enemies rather well with such powers, and simply helped her study them to the point of which she could use them properly.

The years that she experienced during elementary and high schools were normal. Akane listened to her father and did not show any of her magic abilities to her classmates. She barely passed her last year of high school and decided that she would wait a little bit before applying to Ukatan City University. It was during this time that her father became gravely sick. He passed away from a complicated case of pneumonia and left Akane to fend for herself. She knew that she had to pick herself up and get a job before applying to the city's university, which she promptly did.

Akane receives some sort of federal aid that helps her to pay her tuition-- the rest she pays with the money she earns from her part time job in a local flower shop. She isn't doing too well in the university and many professors dislike her due to the fact that she sleeps in the middle of class. It doesn't bother her, much-- at least she's passing, right?

[b]Other:[/b]
 Akane is [i]terrified[/i] of dogs of all shapes and sizes. She is more of a cat person and wants nothing more than to have a cat herself.
