Name: Akira (Aki) Okura Age: 16 Gender: Female. [img]http://safebooru.org//images/745/cfa80b93f9bf11cc71ca8492556cb58c26972361.jpg?750431[/img] Personality: Aki is a brash, rebellious girl who has "Issues with authority" as teachers and parents would tell her, but she personally prefers to say that she doesn't take shit from anybody. She is naturally distrustful of people, more so of people who have any form of command over her. This is because she sees that power ultimately corrupts if a person has power for a long enough period of time. She is also very vengeful and impulsive, so if you cross her, be prepared to get your comeuppance in a timely manner. If she decides that you are to be trusted, and can be her friend, she will have endless amounts of loyalty for you, to the point where she will do anything to protect you, or avenge you if you feel that somebody has trespassed against you. Her basic moral standards stem from the idea that you should only be restricted on doing what can directly cause physical or emotional harm to other people. Lying, cheating, or directly harming anybody are the major things that she has issues with. Beyond that, a person can do most anything, be it act impolite, swear, or act like a slob, she'll accept a person for whoever they are, as long as they do no harm. Though she does have a very strong personality, she does have a certain charm about her. She's very good at getting her way, or at least getting herself out of trouble. She's found that she can do mostly whatever she wants, and then talk her way out of any trouble she may have gotten herself into. Specialization: Influence History: Aki comes from a very strict home, one which has rules for how to act, speak, and that set a tight schedule and curfew for her. Her parents are affluent, but not from hard work, but from the luck of being from a long linage of very rich people. Neither of them have ever worked a day in their life, and want that to be the same for their daughter. However, they have been turned cruel, unforgiving, and cold from their lifestyle. Though they preach proper behavior, they fail to practice it. Since she was a very little girl, whenever Aki made a mistake, she instantly reprimanded. At first it was a gentle reminder that she wasn't acting proper, but as she was young, she couldn't help but wonder why she was supposed to act they way her parents wanted her to. When she asked, she received the typical, "I told you so." and that never worked for Avi. She needed a reason not to do something, so she would continue on acting how she wanted. This was seen to be callous of her, for her to so openly defy her parents wishes, so then they started to punish her for not listening to her. Grounding her for weeks for simple mistakes, like not saying please and thank you, or even locking her in her room for a night if she did something overtly bad. She hated the situation she was in, so she found a way out. She resolved to control herself completely around her parents, but to act out when she was no longer their watchful eye at school, or when alone with friends. This relationship with her parents was when she first realized that power will corrupt all who have it, as it had with her parents. When she turned ten, she realized her affinity for Music, specifically with Piano and Violin, though you're lucky to hear her play it. Her parents had made her take up the two instruments at that age, and she picked both of them up with ease, though she holds great disdain for the violin, seeing it as drab and much too classical. She prefers to play Jazz music, and has even started composing some of her own. It wasn't long before she realized that her music could influence people, finding that if she talked about things while she played, most people would find themselves agreeing with whatever she was saying. She was honestly slightly repulsed at this revelation, deciding to use it as little as possible. She saw it as a kind of cheating, and that it was at least very immoral. In school, she doesn't have many friends, buts that's a consequence of her unwillingness to give anybody second chances, or budge her personal standards for how she expects they should act. If a person lies, betrays, or wrongs her even once, it is borderline impossible for that person to convince her to like them. Other: She works very hard to keep up a good girl facade in front of her parents, to the point where she's a completely different person. When she's with her parents, she's polite, courteous, and obedient. Her parents have no idea how different she is when they aren't around. She is also fairly short, standing at 4'7
