[hider=Lawan] [b]Name:[/b] Lawan Somwan [b]Appearance: [/b] [img]http://pre09.deviantart.net/a60f/th/pre/f/2017/111/4/5/thai_oc__by_ppumpkinn114-db6m0pe.jpg[/img] Lawan is a tall girl, standing at 185cm (6'1"). [b]Age:[/b] 16 [b]Personality:[/b] Lawan is a responsible and hardworking individual. Raised to value a strong work ethic, Lawan’s first and foremost responsibility is to the task at hand and getting it done right. She is a firm believer in proper teamwork, and she will encourage those around her to co-operate on their tasks, and will admonish those who refuse to work together. She isn’t all hard work though; she likes to think of herself as being capable of being relaxed when there’s no pressing need to attend to something important. She is exceptionally tolerant, and will put up with people of all kinds aside from the overtly malicious. However, while Lawan likes to think she can be fun, she is arguably “bad” at being fun. Lawan has never been well connected with contemporary culture, and her idea of going somewhere “fun” will probably land you at a museum rather than the latest trendy destinations. While she loves hearing jokes, her own jokes are mediocre at best, with an array of bad puns being her go-to when prompted. Lawan will always be a nice and good natured person to hang out with, but if you go to her expecting to chill out “normally”, then you’ll probably have a bad time. [b]Abilities:[/b] Lawan’s upbringing was fairly strict, and so she was not only encouraged to study hard but also keep in good physical shape. She also has some instruction in the Krabi-Krabong style of martial arts. [b]Element:[/b] Water [u][b]Powers:[/b][/u] [b]-Void Shield[/b] - Water [b]-Monsoon[/b] – Lawan can cause it to rain heavily in her immediate vicinity. While not necessarily offensive, it does drench anyone and anything that’s uncovered around her as well as creating a great deal more water. [b]-Tidal Assault[/b] – Lawan can create waves of water of varying size to assault her opponents with. [b]-Double-time[/b] – Lawan can activate her power to give her a short burst of extra vitality, allowing her to move faster and strike harder. It only lasts for a few seconds before being unusable for an hour. [b]History:[/b] Lawan was born to a mildly wealthy family from Bangkok, Thailand. Even while the world was under siege by monsters from the rift, the Somwan family had no intention of raising their daughter any differently than they would have in more peaceful times. Lawan was raised to value hard work and study in the name of furthering her personal potential. Had life carried on like this for Lawan forever, she would have likely grown up to be a typical spoiled rich kid. That all changed the day a rift opened in Bangkok. Unlike the other stories of tragedy in the Rift Wars, Lawan did not lose her family that day, but they did lose just about everything else. The family business was shattered, and her parents had little money left on hand. Lawan soon became a refugee in her own country. While it was a huge shock to her system initially, Lawan and her parents quickly thrust themselves into more and more work to compensate for their losses. While they never recovered their wealth, they managed to live a sustainable life through their efforts. Lawan’s transition from riches to rags destroyed any sense of entitlement or snobbery she may have once had. She couldn’t rely on her family’s money anymore, she could only rely on her own efforts and those of her mother and father together. She had to put up with a lot of things and people that a younger Lawan would have turned her nose up at. She didn’t fully leave behind all the habits she developed from her time as a sybarite, but she definitely became a better person for it. One day, a former business associate of her fathers passed through their new home for a visit. He just so happened to bring a curiosity he had acquired from an archaeological dig in the country; a summoning tablet. Lawan just so happened to be there at the time, and she felt drawn to read the words upon the tablet. Naturally, that was the moment she called upon her summon for the first time, and afterwards she was discovered by the Aether Bridge programme and ushered into their academy. While Lawan did not have any real desire to become a summoner, her parents told her this was an opportunity that she should put her whole effort into. She decided it was best to make the most of this and plans to develop her potential to the fullest.

[b]Element:[/b] Water [b]Element gift:[/b] Pasak shares with Lawan the ability to breath underwater and control the tension of the water beneath them. [b]About:[/b] Pasak is a calm and indifferent creature. He likes to muse on anything he observes, but he rarely has any real interest in having things happen any particular way, preferring to leave things to Lawan. He is also largely cynical, often interpreting the actions of others in line with inferred agendas and intentional deception. While Pasak is usually apathetic, any assaults on his own character or Lawans will earn his ire, causing him to spit curses at the offending individual and double any efforts to take them down.
