It has sharp teeth and a long tongue, and while it can’t speak, it has a consciousness and a limited mental connection with Ruby. Akko uses Ruby’s hair as tentacle-like limbs. Her pigtails can grow and shrink at Akko’s will, reaching about ten feet at most. While Ruby can give commands to Akko, its biggest motivation is food. Akko is constantly hungry and will use its arms to grab and eat all the food it can. [i][color=f9ad81]Enthusiasm[/color] -[/i] Whatever Ruby does, she puts her all into it. She’s a very hard worker and incredibly motivated. She may not be good at everything she does, but she’ll never do anything halfway. [i][color=f9ad81]Knowledge[/color] -[/i] Ruby has been avidly interested in the supernatural from a young age. Over the years, she had amassed an almost encyclopedic knowledge of the supernatural world gathered from a vast assortment of sources. She’s also adept at getting information out of people due to her natural charm and persuasiveness. If there’s something you need to know, Ruby is the person to turn to. [b][color=f9ad81]Weakness/Limits:[/color][/b] [i][color=f9ad81]Akko[/color] -[/i] Ruby can tell Akko what to do, but it’s completely up in the air whether Akko will cooperate or not. Akko won’t listen to Ruby at all if there’s something for it to eat around, leaving Ruby without any control of her hair. [i][color=f9ad81]Emotions[/color] -[/i] Ruby is a very emotional person and has trouble separating emotion from reason. While it’s hard to work her up to that point, she has a wild temper and can get very reckless when she’s angry or upset. [i][color=f9ad81]Fear of Death[/color] -[/i] Due to trauma when she was young, Ruby is terrified of the idea of her or her loved ones dying; much more so than the average person. If someone she loves is threatened, she’ll panic and act very recklessly, if she doesn’t just freeze up. [b][color=f9ad81]Appearance:[/color][/b] Ruby tends to look pretty unassuming. She’s short, thin, and young-looking, but she’s strong for her size. She often wears shirts and jackets that are a few sizes too big. She usually ends up dressing like a grunge kid from the nineties. She wears her hair in a style reminiscent of Sailor Moon, with buns on either side of her head, with long pigtails coming down off of the buns (the Sailor Moon resemblance was completely intentional on her part). She has to keep it tied up or else it’s completely unmanageable. Ruby’s most notable feature is Akko, the huge sharp-toothed mouth on the back of her head. When it’s closed, she looks like any other person. When it’s open, it looks like an axe wound that grew teeth. Gross.

When she was two years old, she started to show signs of the Futakuchi-onna curse. A gash started to form on the back of her head, and she would refuse to eat. As the curse developed, the gash turned into a mouth that did all of Ruby’s eating for her. This made her an outcast among the other kids her age, but her parents and brothers accepted her, and that was enough for Ruby. The Leoz family was poor, but very close-knit and happy. Everything changed, however, when Ruby was nine and her father went missing. For two weeks, the family and the local police desperately searched for him. When the police found him, he had been killed under suspicious circumstances. The whole family was devastated; Ruby, especially. This had been her first real experience with death and it was a traumatic one. The investigation went on for weeks afterward, and eventually the Men In Black became involved due to connections to extraterrestrial criminals. Ruby never heard many of the details, but she knew that the MIB found the culprits and brought them to justice. This sparked something in her. She wanted nothing more than to help others the way the MIB helped her. She would spend the rest of her school years working towards joining them. When she heard about the founding of the Bureau of Supernatural Affairs, she changed her trajectory toward joining the Bureau. She thought that, bearing a supernatural curse herself, it would be appropriate for her. In the years following the murder, Ruby and her brothers and mother stayed close. Her brothers were still the only friends she had, but they were good friends, so she didn’t mind. She was too concerned with her studies and fitness to care much about the social scene. As soon as she graduated high school, Ruby applied to the BSA. Before she knew it, she was tearfully saying goodbye to her family and packing up to go to DC. Having recently finished her training, Ruby is now the most enthusiastic rookie in the S-Division. [/hider]
