Fiery red hair, hazel eyes and a delicately white skin coupled with an cute and pretty face, Nina is surely an eye candy. Standing at 1,68m, her athletic body has almost perfect dimensions, so much that it's almost that it was carefully calculated. An agile and compact build. While some say that it's not as pretty or 'alluring' as other women with big breasts and large hips, those who know how to look can see the beauty behind her body.

Nina is a happy girl, despite everything that happened to her. Always with a smile on her face, she loves company, has a tendency to always see the good side of everything and is rather flirty regarding members of the opposite sex who earns her attention. Just like her hair though, she has quite the fiery temperament. With strong opinions, she isn't the type of woman who would go back on her own words or flee from an argument. Despite this fact, she is extremely smart and very rarely looses her temper enough to impair her logical thinking. Ironically enough, the best way to extract information from her is by being friendly. Around those whom she considers being her 'friends' she is sometimes careless regarding information that should be confidential.

Born in a relatively wealthy family, Nina was always an incredibly smart girl. Being gifted with both a healthy and athletic body and smarts, she quickly made a name for herself in the academic community due to her innovative ideas of using bioware technics, concepts and technology together with cyberware. Due to that, as soon as she graduated herself, she was almost immediately showered with offers to work in megacorps. The young Nina, not knowing how serious was working for a big megacorp, simply accepted the one that paid a good amount of money and gave her a bit of freedom for her to tinker with expensive tech without taking it off from her paycheck. 

Fortunately for the big megacorp that hired her, Nina didn't care much at all about anything other than simply having enough money to buy all the high tech 'toys' (aka: very expensive and potentially dangerous stuff) to tinker with and to have enough free time for her hobbies (that, excluding things that were related to her work, included gymnastics, swimming & etc.) All in all, Nina was just a young, naive girl in the cruel, ruthless world of the megacorps. Being purposedly left in the dark regarding what the company was doing with her technology, for a relatively long time, she didn't really care that much. It wasn't like she didn't suspected her technology was being used in weapons (she even designed some weapons herself in her free time) but she never expected it would come back to bite her one day. 

For a long time, Nina managed to live away from the dirt and corruption that were everywhere. Protected by the very megacorp she worked at as a way to keep her just as naïve and oblivious to what was happening and simply continue creating new tech, she only came to realize that there was something wrong when she was kidnapped one day when she was on her way to the work and ordered to reveal the secrets of her technology to a rival megacorp under gunpoint. Obviously, to have such valuable information given to others would potentially mean the downfall of any corp. So instead of trying to save Nina, they instead... tried to silence her by sending a samurai to get rid of her by exploding the building she was being kept hostage at.

The assassination was believed to be successful, resulting in a big explosion that was masked as an accident related with fuel/gas. Unknowingly to the samurai, Nina was somehow... still alive. Awakening after a long time unconscious, she found herself barely alive, bleeding profusely and unable to stand up. In shock, Nina tried to shout for help, but nothing came out from her mouth. Crawling her way out of the ruined building, she tried her best to get some help, but she passed out due to the blood loss the moment she got out of it. 

Some time passed and she found herself waking up in a hospital bed. Fortunately for Nina, she somehow managed to survive, but not without grave injuries. Metal shrapnel and the explosion itself completely ruined her legs beyond repair, severing nerves and breaking her femur to multiple pieces. Multiple metal fragments had also penetrated her chest. Amongst them, two became deeply lodged within her heart, damaging it and making it able to work only with a fraction of its previous efficiency. Although she was not in risk of dying anymore, her condition was still... very bad. Walking was simply impossible due to her wounds and any physical effort would quickly cause further complications due to her debilitated heart.

The following months after the accident were incredibly tough for Nina. With her own body ruined, she spent all her savings in the black market. Getting tech now that she wasn't affiliated with a megacorp anymore and was believed to be dead wasn't that easy. After some time, Nina managed to rebuild her legs and replace her heart. Finally after months of agonizing mental and emotional torture, Nina could finally feel 'whole' again. All the nerve wrecking stress that had piled up those months was finally going away. But that wasn't the end of all that. Nina couldn't go back to her old life anymore. She wasn't supposed to be alive and she had just enough credit to feed her for a few month after all the modifications... The only two things she knew to do were parkour and gymnastics and being a cybernetic specialist. Selling her tech on the black market wasn't an option because she was afraid someone would recognize who she was so she turned to the only alternative that she had found... Working as an information runner... She knew that being an information runner in the underworld was a dangerous job, so she started training on how to defend herself. Unarmed combat by using her new legs and her speed, hand to hand combat with knife and marksmanship with the crossbow of her own design. 

After all that happened, Nina wasn't a naïve, defenseless girl anymore... The accident, being kidnapped and living in the underworld changed her. She knew how cruel the world could be and she would do whatever she needed to do to survive. Little by little, she became known as a very reliable information runner, able to deliver even dangerous and highly sought after packages. The few people who tried something funny to her also were quickly dispatched, making those who knew her to not let her cheerful behavior and pretty face to fool them.

Silent, accurate and deadly, it boasts an unusually long range for a crossbow, being possible to use it even in long range shots without loss of accuracy due to the elongated barrel. All in all, it resembles a weird hybrid between a rifle and a crossbow.

[color=5F9EA0]»[/color] [color=silver] Cyberware Explanation [/color]
[indent][color=silver][i] 

Focusing more in speed and agility than brute strength, the main point of her bodily modifications is to further enhance what she was so proud of before suffering the accident that ruined her legs: her agility, dexterity, balance and speed. The talon feet give her legs a surprisingly high combat capability while also helping her to climb & run through difficult terrain. 

The custom made legs are part cybernetic, part biologic. No one knows why she didn't just amputated her legs and simply made a fully cybernetic legs, some say it was just a whim. Maybe as a way to say she didn't completely loose her legs and technically, they were still her original legs, which she was so proud of.

While her legs aren't affected by EMPs or jamming due to their bio-tech design, they are significantly 'harder' to repair than normal cybernetic legs due to how complicated their construction is, requiring something akin to an 'operation' (unfortunately, Nina is basically the only one who knows how they were built so it's improbable that others can fix them). The fact that her own blood runs through the bio cybernetic legs only make things worse, as blood loss can and will be a problem if left untreated. The light armor she uses on her legs protect her against some things, but anything bigger than a smg will probably go straight through them.

Thanks to her variable chambered heart, hemological replacement and relatively fast metabolism, especially when running, toxins, poisons and drugs are incredibly effective on her, acting and spreading much faster on her body. Lack of oxygen can also become a problem to Nina, especially on areas with too much smoke.

[*] [color=6ecff6]Gender:[/color] Female
[*] [color=6ecff6]Sexuality:[/color] Heterosexual
[*] [color=6ecff6]Age:[/color] 21
[*] [color=6ecff6]Home Nation:[/color] Half Hearing, Half Touch
[/list]

[color=6ecff6][center][h3]Appearance[/h3][/center][/color]
Penetrating green eyes, a delicate and elegant face and immaculately white skin and hair give Karina quite the unique and exotic appearance. Her body although small and apparently delicate hides a surprisingly agile, dexterous and flexible frame, fruit of her training. Usually wears an military style uniform with her hair tied and a cap. On formal occasions she unties her hair and prefers to wear dresses.

[color=6ecff6][center][h3]Bio[/h3][/center][/color]
Karina was born out of the unusual union of a scholar from the Nation of Hearing and a general from the Nation of Touch. By the choice of her father, she went to live on together with her mother on her home nation as he wanted her to have a peaceful life, away from the chaos of war. On the Nation of Hearing, Karina would show her love for knowledge as her and her mother often passed their time studying together.
But unfortunately, having a life away from the was wasn't something that Karina would be able to enjoy for much longer... When she was only 10 years old, her mother fell ill with a very serious, contagious disease. Without any other option, Karina had to go to live with her father on the Nation of Touch.

There on the Nation of Touch, Karina's father became cold and even more distant, dedicating his entire time to his work trying to forget the pain from losing his loved one. Karina on the other hand was literally raised amongst soldiers and other high patent officers. Her education was already very good, in fact, it was better than most people, since she was herself the daughter of an scholar, but there were some things that her mother couldn't teach her in the pacifist Nation of Hearing. It was only natural that being so instructed and intelligent, she would learn certain military knowledge fast as she heard her father talking with other officers. But another one of those things was Fencing. After seeing two high patent officer sparring, she immediately fell in love with the Rapier. It didn't resemble violence, it was almost a dance. The way the officers moved almost effortlessly through the room, their rapiers singing as the edges kissed themselves... It was the perfect balance between violence and art. Since that moment, fencing became another one of Karina's hobbies, other than studying and debating with other officers about military strategies & etc.

As she grew older, as the General's daughter and after proving herself to be knowledgeable enough that not giving her a patent was deemed an absolute waste of talent, nobody dared to mistreat her. Known as the 'flower' of the military due to her beautiful looks and because she was always walking around the headquarters, either reading, talking with seasoned officers (often surprising her due to her intellect) or practicing her fencing, her influence grew both by her father's position and her patent. 

Maybe because of her mixed blood or maybe due to her spending half of her life on the Nation of Hearing and the other half on the Nation of Touch, when Karina turned 15, a very unique magic awakened on her. Completely the opposite from the usual Tempraisionism magic that was common to the Nation of Touch, Karina was able to use the humidity and the cold on the air in various forms. Incredibly dangerous against other Tempraisionists due to her strength being their weaknesses, it was almost an irony that an officer from the Military of Touch having such magical talent... After that fact became known by the others on the Nation of Touch, she started being referred by some people as "The Ice Flower of the Nation of Touch".

[color=6ecff6][center][h3]Personality[/h3][/center][/color]
Despite her nickname as 'The Ice Flower', Karina is actually not that cold when around friends. Enjoying a good conversation and often seen with a mysterious, but enchanting smile on her face, she is a real treat to look at. 

Despite her quiet demeanor, she certainly has a very strong personality, maybe due to her father or to the fact that she was raised in the military, but her enchanting smile can turn into a real cold stare when angry and her cold but firm words are famous around the army for being able to frighten even a seasoned soldier.

When amongst other soldiers or in a combat situation though, Karina is almost a completely different person. Really living up to her nickname as the Ice Flower, she is practical, logical and cold both regarding strategizing or fighting herself. 

[color=6ecff6][center][h3]Quirks:[/h3][/center][/color]
Karina has a soft spot for sweets and hot beverages such as hot chocolate.

[color=6ecff6][center][h3]Skills[/h3][/center][/color]
[list]
[*] Fencing: Karina developed her own style of fencing. More agile and elegant than the normal fencing, it's characterized by it's high mobility, deadly lunges, feints and extremely fast movements. While it lacks brute, raw strength, it more than makes up with agility and dexterity. Hence why the Rapier is the perfect weapon for her. 
[*] Adept of Hearing: Just like her mother, Karina is an adept of hearing. Unlike her who used it for music and to distinguish the small difference in musical notes, Karina uses it in a much finer and complex way. By concentrating herself, she can go as far as hearing someone's heartbeats or their movements in order to be able to react much faster than she normally could.
[*] Natural Resistance to cold: Due to her magic and the fact that she trains so much with it, Karina developed a certain resistance to cold. Enough to allow her to use her magic for some time before she needs to stop.
[/list]


[color=6ecff6][center][h3]Magic[/h3][/center][/color]
Cryomancy:

Using the surrounding air temperature, or even her by lowering her bodily temperature, she can create ice in a myriad of ways. Be it creating blades made of concentrated ice to control through the air and cut her enemies, lowering the air temperature in order to counter Tempraisionists or even by lowering another person's bodily temperature in case she hits them with one of her ice blades or with her rapiers. Coupled with her fencing, it is incredibly dangerous as she can overpower opponents much stronger and tough than herself by lowering their bodies' temperature with each cut.

The drawback is that if the air temperature is high, she will have to resort to lower her own body's temperature and depending on how much time she does it, she can even pass out with hypothermia. Using clothes that preserve the bodily temperature like gloves, coats & etc. can allow her to use her magic even when the temperature of the air around her is a bit higher than the necessary for her to use her magic. In the other hand, when the climate is cold, Karina can use her magic almost freely.

[color=6ecff6][center][h3]Weaknesses[/h3][/center][/color]
[list]
[*] Heat: Exactly the opposite from normal Tempraisionism, if the air around her is too hot (for example... if she is around a fireplace or something like that) She will need to use much more energy than normal to use her magic.
[*] Brute Strength: Karina is not that heavy or tall. In a contest of brute strength, she will most likely loose. This also means that if someone pins her down, she won't be able to get out by herself without resorting to magic.
[*] Too many blades: When creating concentrated ice blades, Karina can only create and maintain a maximum of 4 blades at the same time.
[/list]

[color=6ecff6][center][h3]Equipment[/h3][/center][/color]

[hider=Rapier]
Almost a piece of art, this rapier's blade was forged with an special method. It's dark red colored blade has an intricate pattern, formed naturally due to the way the steel was forged. It was a gift from her father when she became an officer. A little something he did trying to redeem himself for being such a distant father.
