I finally finished my student. As you will be able to tell from reading, she's basically the really really nice girl full of heart, obviously. [hider=Delinquent Girl] Name: Yasu Hirabayashi Age: 17 Gender: Female Personality: Yasu is not the most pleasant person to deal with. She’s blunt, crass and coarse, and largely irreverent of any authority. She’s highly selfish, and finds it difficult to see past her own whimsy. She is type to live in the moment, and cares little for “long term investments”, preferring to indulge herself when she can. She’s also highly materialistic, placing great importance on having “nice stuff”, like clothes or jewellery. While she could be described as having a temper, Yasu is less inclined to explosive bursts of anger, instead favouring to reply with a cold, icy glare. If Yasu is angry with you, you’re more likely to realise it when you come home to your windows having been smashed in. Contrary to first impressions and common belief, Yasu is neither a bully nor a sadist. She is sure as hell vindictive, but it’s unlikely to find her chasing around people that haven’t crossed her in some fashion, though she can decide you’ve “crossed her” for fairly trivial reasons. She actually has a bit of a soft spot for “underdogs” and will stick up for a person she thinks is being treated unfairly. Granted, she’s usually too busy indulging herself to be going around looking after people, but if she happens to see someone being picked on, she’s more likely to try being a hero than a villain. She’s even capable of being perfectly friendly with someone, only they have to be someone willing to get past the selfishness and the foul language and the braying about the awesome piercing she just bought and the fact that she has committed crimes… Backstory: Yasu was not born in the gutter, but some would say she ended up there in spite of it. Yasu’s parents were in fact fairly well off; not filthy stinking rich, but wealthy enough that Yasu was handed enough cash regularly to sustain a fairly self-indulgent lifestyle. The only hiccup was that since both of them were working rather demanding jobs, Yasu found herself on her lonesome more often than others. While she had a nanny as a child, as she grew older she began to tire of sitting around at home and started sneaking out to broaden her horizons. This is when she got introduced to the wrong crowd and fell in with a band of delinquent kids. She came to enjoy the odd sense of freedom she felt among them, and they encouraged her to be more and more rebellious. Eventually, after realising their child was almost at home less than they were, they stopped hiring nannies and started looking into how to correct their wayward daughter’s behaviour. The funny thing about Yasu’s band is that they weren’t an needlessly violent lot. They were definitely a shifty lot that had many habits that weren’t palatable to society, and they certainly had truancy records as long as their arms, but they tended to react to provocations more than they instigated anything. For instance, a passing salaryman once mad an offhand quip about Yasu’s new tattoos, so she tailed him for two blocks and stole his briefcase while he wasn’t looking. Another case occurred when the building they were using as a meeting place was going to be torn down by an expanding business. That prompted Yasu and the gang to visit said business and help them ventilate the place by smashing their windows open. Yasu’s lot were without a doubt trouble, but they tended to keep to themselves if they had no reason to look for trouble. But living a life like that couldn’t possibly continue without more serious incidents. One day, a far more violent band of delinquents moved into the area and provoked Yasu’s band into a fight. While they weren’t afraid of a scrap, they weren’t quite prepared for how vicious these people would turn out to be. One of them pulled out a switchblade and lunged at Yasu. It was at this moment her power awakened; a bolt of electricity lurched out from her hand and scorched the attacker’s face. Yasu ran away from the battle after that, but it wasn’t the last she would see of the events that day. Her parents saw how banged up she had gotten that night, and now they weren’t about to sit around and hope they could correct her behaviour passively. Fortunately for them, the people from the institute soon turned up and gave them their out. They figured Yasu couldn’t possibly get up to half as much trouble at an institution packed with super powered staff members. They made it exceedingly clear that Yasu was going to go to this place, threatening to never let her see a single yen of their money if not. Being far too shallow to stomach living without her expensive vices, Yasu agreed to go. Even though she was worried about her friends, she didn’t feel like she had much choice here. Besides, she was partially interested in exploring these weird new abilities too. Appearance: [img]http://pre15.deviantart.net/c17b/th/pre/i/2016/183/1/8/sukeban_chio_by_blazing0pixel-da8h4v9.png[/img] Yasu’s natural hair colour is a raven black, but she took to using dyes during her time as a delinquent, and has stuck with a vibrant pink colour for some time. She is 5’7”, being somewhat tallish for a woman. She has a number of tattoos that can’t always be seen due to being under her clothes, but one clearly visible one is on the back of her neck done in the pattern of two thorns entwined in a heart shape. She also has piercings in both ears. Equipment: Yasu used a simple steel [url=https://cloudfront.zoro.com/product/full/Z_-8Fzfo5oy.JPG]chain[/url] as a weapon during her time on the streets. She also tends to carry around a lot of completely useless but fairly pricey accessories, such as a silver bracelet on her left wrist and a golden hoop attached to her phone. Abilities: Yasu is familiar with the art of the scrap, even if she didn’t always go seeking out random fights. Her fighting style is unrefined, but she is a tough girl through and through. Channeller category: Wavecaster Description of power: Yasu’s power is the ability to manipulate and produce electricity. Names/descriptions of moves: -Zap: Just a simple electric bolt that travels in a linear fashion, though it does have a fair range to it. -Crackle: This unleashes a dangerous spray of electric energy over the immediate area, making it hard to get near Yasu, though it has a limited range and area of effect. It gets pushed out in a forward facing cone, so it doesn’t defend her at every angle. -Pop: This is a close quarters technique that sees Yasu flow an electric current through the opponent’s body, giving them a nasty and continuous shock. Naturally, she has to actually touch the opponent to put this into effect.

[/hider] Also, question; I dunno if this was answered elsewhere, but how will languages work in this setting? Will we have a convenient magical translator so everyone understands what everyone else is saying? Or will everyone just be expected to speak English or Japanese or something?
