[b]Appearance:[/b] [img=http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100205181555/megaman/images/5/52/Sera.jpg] Basically, the short teal hair, red eyes, and dark skin, she wears normal clothes like her school uniform. She is a bit on the short, loli side. [b]Name:[/b] Shizuka Margarete Otonashi (静 マルガレーテ 音無, by order of first, middle and last name as is the convention in Germany) [b]Age:[/b] 11 [b]Personality:[/b] [i]Shizuka is a genius through effort. Though she does not posses what people would consider 'genius-levels of raw talent' she does possess some inherent talent which she combines with a relentless determination to crush those who would consider themselves her 'betters'. Through hard work, she can surpass those who are 'inherently smarter' than her, while her own inherent intelligence gives her a tremendous edge against those with less intelligence than her. In this way, she has risen to the top in all academic fields and is considered a wunderkind though she knows that the truth is that she is not a true prodigy in the traditional sense. She is highly analytical and critical, often emotionless and objective to hide the jealous and competitive rage she harbors against anyone who might threaten her position.[/i] [b]Hopes and Dreams~:[/b] [i]Above all, Shizuka wishes to be heard, to gain recognition and respect for her achievements. In actuality she simply wants to be loved and accepted unconditionally, without having to work for approval.[/i] [b]Equipment:[/b] -Several different language dictionaries -Textbooks covering a wide range of subjects -A white [url=https://www.google.com/search?q=atlas+beetle&rlz=1C1CHFX_enUS585US585&espv=2&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=wPqPU_n6OIWcyASa6oGoDQ&ved=0CAYQ_AUoAQ&biw=1920&bih=979]Atlas Beetle[/url] plushie named Amadeus [b]History:[/b] [i]Born in Germany to a Japanese father and German mother she is the fourth child, with three brothers before her. As the children were raised, the younger children piggybacked on the knowledge of the older children, allowing the younger ones to learn at an accelerated rate. The family was upper middle class, but the ghost of consumerism made the parents believe themselves to be poor, so they pushed their children to excel in academics, seeing it as the only way their children could increase their wealth. Shizuka's eldest brother was smart in his own right, but quickly became overshadowed by the achievements of his younger siblings. Crushed, demoralized, and disillusioned, he rebelled against his parents' way of life, ultimately resulting in the father throwing him out of the house and disowning him. Shizuka was very young when this happened and came to believe that how much one was loved was entirely dependent on one's academic performance, a sort of educational meritocracy. One who could not achieve did not deserve love, love had to be earned. Not only love, but respect, status and power. Knowledge and academics thus became her obsession, every achievement she gained allowed her to be showered with admiration and attention, and in the same vein as her parents and their want of wealth, it wasn't enough, it was never enough. She had to have more; more recognition, more fame. it came as no surprise then, that she was invited to the exclusive all-girls Hinamizawa Academy in Japan. She bid her parents and two brothers farewell, heading to the airport by herself by taxi. Before leaving, she met up one last time with her eldest brother who was still trying to make his way in the world who had come to the airport to see her off.[/i] [b]Soul Colour:[/b] [i]Purple[/i] [b]Magical Girl Appearance:[/b] [img=http://designhey.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/robot-girls4.jpg] [i]Some slight modifications to the above image are that her hair color should be teal, but her eyes change to purple in magical girl form. Skin color should be darker, ignore the text, and ignore the handheld weapons as Shizuka possesses no plasma rifle or stun blade. Shizuka is also a bit more covered up and doesn't show that much skin or underboob ([s]if underboobs even exist for flat-chested lolis[/s]). Imagine her outfit to be more along the lines of the image shown previously with the sleeveless white dress. Mainly, I want to keep the circular array that floats behind her since it looks like a sound system.[/i] [b]Nickname:[/b] (None yet, though she might adopt "Maneshitsugumi" "Spottdrossel", or "Mockingbird" in the future) Never call her [url=http://www.theramenrater.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/2012_10_25_912_003.jpg]Maru-chan[/url] [b]Magic:[/b] [i]Her magic revolves around detection, waves, sound, and music. She can send out sonc pings to locate enemies as well as scan and analyze a system for potential weaknesses. She can also use these pings to determine the resonant frequency of various objects and then project that frequency to shatter the object like a wine glass, though depending on the material, she might not have enough power output to destroy it. She mainly uses music, which has a profound effect on the psyche, to give her allies temporary stat boosts; otherwise she tells her allies what weaknesses, if any, she has discovered in the enemy if she is unable to exploit thew weakness herself.[/i]
