[hider=Anovala Staril] [b]Name:[/b] Anovala Staril [b]Appearance:[/b] Anovala is a somewhat attractive looking human woman who is slightly taller than average. She has a rather slim, yet fit body and her skin is rather smooth, and practically free from blemishes. She has pink shoulder length hair and a cute feminine face. Her bust is also rather small, at least when compared to other females. She usually wears a t-shirt and a skirt or jeans along with a brown headband, though in battle or when training she can most normally be found wearing a long-sleeved purple shirt and trousers, with a black undershirt and belt. [b]Age:[/b] 21 [b]Race:[/b] Human [b]Gender:[/b] Female [b]Personality:[/b] Anovala is a kind girl with a strong sense of morals. She would rather carry out a plan that has less chance of success than a plan that would most likely work, but endanger others. Though she has a kind demeanor she has trouble thanking anyone properly, especially if it involves saving her life. It’s not that she doesn’t want to thank them though, she just doesn’t want to come off as weak, and she really doesn’t know what to say or even how to really react to it. She often mentally fights with herself on this and doesn’t know what to do. She is straight and while she desires a relationship for the future, she is not exactly looking for one right now. [b]Bio:[/b] Anovala was raised by two middle-class parents in a rural area. Both of her parents studied martial arts and had control over their ki and often took part in fighting tournaments winning a bit of money. At the age of six both of her parents started to teach Anovala martial arts, as well as trying to help her develop her own ki blast. Anovala had a knack for martial arts and was able to learn a bunch of moves at an accelerated rate, but she had trouble forming any type of ki blast. When Anovala reached age 14 both of her parents were attacked by a group of thugs after Anovala’s father accidentally bumped into one of them while he and his wife were heading out to see a movie together. Anovala’s parents had the upper hand at first, until the group leader arrived and fired ki blasts killing Anovala’s father with a direct shot to the head killing him. In extreme anger Anovala’s mother fired a large ki blast at the leader which injured him quite a bit, but also pissed him off majorly. A big battle played out ending in a draw with the gang leader dying due to a lucky attack by Anovala’s mother. Unfortunately Anovala’s mother was seriously injured in the fight and was rushed to the hospital and had to have surgery performed. Not to much time passed before Anovala found out and rushed to the hospital to visit her dying mother. Anovala stayed by her mother’s bed side for a few hours until her mother finally passed away, due to complications with how the way the surgery was handled. Anovala cried as she headed back home now parentless. From that point on Anovala trained hard so that she could protect others and protect herself in case she had the same fate herself. She focused on training her handling of ki reasoning that if her mother knew how to use her ki more efficiently she could have survived. She also trained her speed as well rather than strength reasoning that if her father was fast enough he could have dodged the initial ki blast. Eventually she dedicated herself entirely to fighting and won several high level tournaments. [b]Aura Color:[/b] Light Blue [b]Preferred Fighting Style:[/b] Leaning towards Ki Blasts – Anovala is not afraid to engage in close quarters combat, but generally prefers to keep things at a medium distance, enough that she can rush her opponent or play keep away with ki blasts if needed. She specializes in both speed and ki efficiency/power, while everything else is a little below average, with durability being her weakest attribute. [b]Signature Combat Techniques[/b] [i]Cascade Punch:[/i] Anovala creates multiple thin layers of ki over her fist and punches her opponent with it. It’s basically like being punched multiple times simultaneously in the exact same spot, making it a devastating move if it ever hits directly. The only downside is that holding the different layers of ki together takes up a lot of concentration, so if Anovala were to get distracted she could lose some or even all the ki layers. [i]Flare up/Flare Mine:[/i] Anovala creates a small ball of ki that floats in the air. It’s basically a slow moving (or non-moving) mine that combusts if touched. When creating these balls of ki if Anovala focuses correctly she can link the balls of energy towards a source of energy. These mines can then flare up and shoot towards the source of the energy with a time delay that lasts anywhere from 1 second to 1 minute. When these projectiles flare up they produce sparks of orange ki and travel at a rate much faster than most standard ki attacks. Once the projectiles flare up they lose power but do gain a small amount of piercing damage. (e.g. able to pierce through the environment or pierce slightly through an entity’s body). Additionally the ki sparks generated deal a very miniscule amount of damage if touched. Flared ki blasts cannot change direction and can only fly in a straight line. The direction a non-flared mine moves is inconsequential to which direction the projectile moves once it flares up. If an energy source is undetectable Anovala will have to manually aim them in advance. [i]Divergence Beam:[/i] A large beam of ki that can split into multiple smaller beams. Additionally these beams can change directions and do not have to travel straight once fired, but movement is somewhat limited. [i]Drain Shield:[/i] Anovala creates a frontal ki barrier that can absorb ki blasts from other opponents and reintegrate the energy back into the ki shield to sustain itself. Of course this shield is not 100% efficient, and piercing projectiles have a much easier chance of breaking through the shield. That being said, slow moving projectiles, or rapid bursts of weak ki blasts are easily absorbed by the shield. Trying to break the shield physically will just have it act like a normal barrier. The Drain shield is weaker than most other barriers, but is very efficient against ki based attacks. [/hider]
