[b]Name:[/b] (Ando) Akemi [b]Age:[/b] Actually six, physically and mentally fifteen. [b]Appearance:[/b] [url=http://safebooru.org//images/1249/0c3d0b5506051a11f63a4dc7835ce5c2ea4fd28f.jpg]Younger than she looks in both meanings of the word.[/url] [b]Personality:[/b] Almost completely void of emotion in normal situations, you'd have to wonder if Toshiko made a mistake in creating her. As it turns out, Akemi simply doesn't show it very well. She's actually somewhat shy, even if you'd never notice her discomfort, and loves cooking. She's definitely got her childish points, and treats Toshiko like her mother (which is more or less accurate). For some reason, the homunculus finds cars terrifying. [b]Abilities:[/b] Created for the purpose of protecting Toshiko, Akemi's notable skills are simply straight-up combat, with an emphasis on making sure the attacker can't cause problems again making her find it rather more difficult to simply subdue someone. Despite being equally good with her sword or unarmed, she prefers to cut things even though this adds in the difficulty of hiding a weapon when travelling around. As a homunculus made to fight, her physical abilities are beyond what a human could ever get by training... as is her appetite. Aside from combat skill, Akemi is a good cook and efficient cleaner, which is a good thing for the agency itself, otherwise the food quality would probably decrease to 'what can be cooked solely by boiling water' and grime would build on everything. That's what Akemi expects, at least. [b]Weapons/Equipment:[/b] Her sword's magically reinforced, because you never know when something soft and fleshy is going to turn out to be as hard as steel when the supernatural is involved. [b]Brief Backstory:[/b] Created several years back as a safety net, when it wasn't certain that the Ando family would simply accept their daughter ignoring all their plans, Akemi's original purpose as a bodyguard against retribution turned out to not be needed. Still, with nowhere else to go--and at the time looking like a child--she stayed with Toshiko, getting interested in cooking and happily taking better care of the adult mage despite their relative life experience. Even after coming back to Japan and starting a detective agency, she's kept it up. The maid outfit was her idea.
