Note: I am starting to move into my (first-ever!!) new apartment, and will be busy and most likely often without internet for the next few days. [hider=Saeki Keiko][b][i][u]Human[/u][/i][/b] [b]Name[/b]: Saeki Keiko [b]Age[/b]: 11 [b]Appearance[/b]: A small, round child. Keiko is an elementary schooler and looks the part. She has long, navy blue hair and large periwinkle eyes, and is usually struck by an expression of awe or wonder. Her school uniform is something akin to a white-and-blue sailor's uniform, with a large bow at the front. When not wearing her school uniform, she usually wears pastel sundresses or frilly blouses, and almost never goes without some kind of hat or ribbon, her favorite being a bow-adorned sunhat. She looks the very epitome of innocence. [b]Personality[/b]: Wide-eyed and wet-behind-the-ears, Keiko is unassuming, shy, and curious. She loves adventure and will often strike out on her own into the forest, searching for bugs and berries and all sorts of fun! She prefers to be alone, as it's a lot more interesting and less distracting to survey things on her own. She's an only child and used to the freedom that comes with it. Her parents both work and she's been taking care of herself since she was about 7, making her own meals and sometimes putting herself to bed. While she's quite independent, she's also rather emotionally detached and inexperienced because of this. She's rather naive to the feelings and motives of others and does her best to avoid any kind of interaction that won't result in something interesting happening. The only company she likes to keep is that of the creatures in the forest behind her house. Insects, spiders, birds and deer, she's a regular Disney princess, minus the 'animals love her' part. She's often covered with scratches and bites from her attempted 'friendships.' With her wish's power, however, she has begun to make amends with those who thought her dangerous, though not so much with those irritated by her... [b]Backstory[/b]: The only child of two busy office workers, Keiko has been raised to be independent from a young age. She's been a latchkey kid since the age of 5, cooking her own meals since 7, and putting herself to bed since 9. This never particularly [i]harmed[/i] her, per se, but it did a number on her social life and abilities. She learned to entertain herself and withdrew at school, the quiet, studious child in the back of the room who only stood to ask questions about things that interested her. When she did speak, she seemed rather precocious and knowledgeable, but coaxing her to communicate was usually a futile endeavor. The only creatures she showed an interest in were the wildlife around her house, and lo and behold very few would stick around long enough for her to speak to, other than to bite, peck, or sting her in some way. Imagine her surprise when one day, a strange-looking white feline (or is it vulpine?) not only stuck around, but talked back... [b]Wish[/b]: "I want to be friends with the animals, to fly and run with them." [b]Skills[/b]: [i][u]Intuitive:[/u][/i] Keiko picks up skills quite instinctually and is very good at connecting them with abstract concepts. [i][u]Charming:[/u][/i] Despite rarely interacting with them, Keiko enamors those around her. People tend to want to protect her, and dote on her. [i][u]Perceptive:[/u][/i] She's very alert and usually the first person in a room to notice when something's changed. She's also very adept at eavesdropping and gleaning small bits of information. [i][u]Independant:[/u][/i] Especially for her age, Keiko can take care of herself, particularly domestic needs. [b]Weaknesses[/b]: [u][i]Emotional Naivity:[/i][/u]While physical details are rather easy for her to pick up on, Keiko struggles with understanding the feelings of others. While not a sociopath, she simply does not understand peoples' decisions made based on emotion. [u][i]Error 404: Social Awareness Not Found[/i][/u] Alongside lack of emotional understanding, Keiko barely gets social cues, and is often very out of place in regards to interaction. She perhaps has a few non-animal friends. [u][i]Thinking Ahead? Eh?:[/i][/u] Keiko is 11. She is rather precociously smart, but she has the emotional maturity and memory of an 11 year old. She may make logical decisions, but is her logic sound? ...sometimes...maybe... [i][u][b][color=Deepskyblue]Magical Girl[/color][/b][/u][/i] [b]Appearance and Theme Color[/b]: [color=deepskyblue]Deep Sky Blue.[/color] She dons a frilled, feathery sleeveless light yellow dress, with blue flecks here and there. A long, flowing [url=https://img0.etsystatic.com/000/0/5987560/il_570xN.172596924.jpg]scarf[/url] compliments it, glittering in iridescent blues and teals. She wears a sky blue [url=http://www.taghats.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Hat-Feather.jpg]feathered hat[/url] and tights to match. Her shoes are similar in color to her scarf, and are adorned with yellow feathers. Her Soul Gem is a swirling sky blue with flecks of varying times' and weathers' hues, and is affixed at the front throat of her scarf. Untransformed, but resides on an otherwise nondescript bracelet. [b]Magical Weapon[/b]: A hardwood baton that doubles as a telescope. It can be used to see things in infrared, magical auras, and life force, among other things--for weaponixed use in particular, weak points of Witches. It's more of a tool than an offensive weapon, but it can pack a punch. [b]Magical Ability[/b]: Keiko can convert her scarf into a pair of shining wings (nicknamed "Wings of Whimsy"), enabling flight and the ability to whip up razor-sharp wind blasts. They also grant her the ability to convert creative energy into enchantments that she can apply to herself or others. She can convert feathers into sharp, dangerous projectile weapons, which she can use in conjunction with the enchantments. [b]Physical stats[/b]: (Available points= 20) (Each attribute has a max value of 10) [i][u]Attack[/u][/i]: 3 [i][u]Defense[/u][/i]: 4 [u][u]Agility[/u][/u]: 7 [i][u]Mana[/u][/i]: 6 Experience: 3 Keiko has fought some familiars and is getting the hang of her abilities, but is still a greenhorn. Despair: 2 Keiko is largely unaware of the negative implications of being a magical girl and is an innocent child, for the most part. [b]Karmic Potential:[/b] TBD [/hider]
