[quote=@Riegal] [@Dynamo Frokane] Two days later than I had originally planned, but here she is for judgement~ [hider=Shoko Ueda] [center] [img]https://i.imgur.com/ULnk199.png[/img] [b][color=ED2C2C]Name:[/color][/b] Shoko Ueda [b][color=ED2C2C]Age:[/color][/b] 16 [b][color=ED2C2C]Time in Shumi:[/color][/b] 3 months [b][color=ED2C2C]Nationality:[/color][/b] Japanese [/center] [hr] [b][color=ED2C2C][PERSONALITY][/color][/b] Shoko naturally comes off as a 'queen-bee' kind of girl, thanks mainly to her looks and the fact that she generally seems to lack much care for others. Despite this, she's actually surprisingly awkward. Her interests her entire life have been on the geeky side of things, clashing strongly with the first impression most get of her, and leading to many less than fantastic school memories. While she tends to keep to herself because of these past experiences, once she's gotten an impression that she's not really being judged (like at local meet up for TCGs and the like), she's more than happy to open up, revealing a genuine and earnest girl who is prone to moments of 'adorkableness' once she gets wrapped up in an activity. In contrast, her fiery and intense competitive nature also surfaces, revealing an unbelievably stubborn and focused scrapper. Sometimes these two sides of her trip over each other, usually leading to regret and intense embarrassment for Shoko. It's not uncommon for her to blush, and it shows clear as day on her skin. [b][color=ED2C2C][HOBBIES & INTERESTS][/color][/b] Shoko has an obvious great interest in card games, being fairly successful at them--winning locals for whichever game she signed up for was an expectation, as were good placings at regional and occasionally even national-level tournaments. She has playmats for the two World Championships she's been to, which she very much enjoys showing off. Along with TCGs, Shoko is inclined to enjoy anything that offers her an outlet for her competitive nature. A big one of these is video games, specifically in the Fighting and Real-time Strategy genres. She also enjoys speedrunning certain games. On the more artistic side of things, Shoko enjoys both cosplaying (often at TCG tournaments as a popular character from the game) and model building (usually models of mechas, because she's pretty into giant robots. Giant robots are cool). [b][color=ED2C2C][BIOGRAPHY][/color][/b] Born and raised in Tokyo, Japan, Shoko has never been a stranger to bright lights and non-stop entertainment--and that's not something she'd have any other way. The thought of living somewhere rural where she would be unable to find people who share who interests makes her shudder. Her parents are both rather wealthy business-types in the entertainment industry, which allowed the girl to explore her (often expensive) hobbies fully, which she's always grateful for. In response, Shoko began to care for the house from a young age so that her always busy parents did not have to. As such, she's become adept at cleaning and cooking, among other things. On top of that, to do what she could to pay for her own hobbies, at the age of fourteen she began working part-time at one of the local hobby shops she frequented, which suited her well because 90% of the time she was just partaking in her interests anyway. Her parent's connections, and the fact that she was an extremely valued customer at the store definitely helped her get the job, perhaps a bit unfairly, but she proved in no time to be a perfect fit. Her parent's positions eventually caused the family to relocate to Shumi Island, which was both exciting and disheartning for Shoko. Shumi Island was a haven for someone like her, but at the same time she no longer had the job she loved and no longer saw the same familiar faces she had seen for sixteen years. She transferred into Catalyst Academy, and has been having some trouble fitting in--it's high school, she's kind of awkward, and this is her first time experiencing such a change in scenery. At least it's about as bustling as Tokyo.
