[hider=Yukari Yozakura] Appearance: [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/z0fOI2F.jpg[/img][/center] Costume: [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/4mYZAMO.jpg[/img][/center] Name: Yukari Yozakura Hero Name: Ragdoll Gender: Girl Age: 13 Height: 5’7 Weight: 114lbs Personality: Yukari is gentle and careful. Being blind she has to take things slowly and balance everything closely, since she has no idea just how tilted things really are. Yet she’s also fearless and isn’t afraid to get right up to the faces of villains and problematic people. Yukari is like a sweet flower, pretty and kind to her friends, but those who try to pick on her would find that she has thorns. She can certainly be cunning, even savage, as the situation demands and isn't afraid to take advantage of other people's weaknesses to get by. But she tries not to manipulate others and is mostly honest, but she's not going to let honesty put herself or others in a bad situation. One problem Yukari does have is her reliance on others, not only to help her around her daily life, but just the fact she’s very clingy. While her disability and her ability despite that has garnered her many fans and friends she still is very self-conscious about how others perceive her and always suspects that they might be lying just to make her feel better. She has issues trusting people’s words yet at the same time tries too hard to get them to like her. She hates the thought of people just using her just about as much as people taking pity on her. Ultimately Yukari is actually a very selfish person who has gotten too used to always being praised and can sometimes to bad things in order to gain more attention or just to make sure she herself doesn't end up in a very pitiful position. Background: Some kids run away to join the circus. But Yukari was born into the circus; her parents were both acrobatic dancers for a trope of quirk-powered freak shows and performers. But Yukari took things up a notch; while she showed early sign of sharing her parents quirk (Flexibility and shock absorption), she was born with one more thing: Blindness. They learned about it when she was three years old, unable to see where she was going nor identify simple patterns and shapes. Despite this her parents didn’t let this stop them from teaching her everything they knew; if anything they took advantage of their daughter’s disability to turn it into a strength. It wasn’t long before Yukari learned how to balance, tumble, and jump as well as her parents, and without ever knowing how she looked. Her parents trained her hard and emphasized her blindness in order to help the circus bring in more customers. Little Yukari became her own attraction at the circus, combining her high-risk acrobatics and her quirk to impress the audience and bring in droves of attendees. However Yukari quickly started to get disillusioned at the whole circus life; it was just one performance after another with very few chances for her to relax or just be herself. Her only solace was hearing about the gossip and news outside of the circus tent; tales of other super powered individuals making a real difference in their lives. In the entire world. While Yukari might’ve been able to entertain others on the stage she wanted to bring smiles to everyone in the world. So one day, she ran away from the circus. Yukari fled to Japan, where she personally sought out a place she heard so much about. UA academy, a school for super heroes! She wanted to apply but... As it turns out having a strong quirk isn't good enough when you're effectively an illegal immigrant. When Yukari approached the proctors of the UA entry exam and told them her situation, they didn't allow her to participate due to her questionable legal status. But because she was too young to be left on her own, they tried to get into contact with her old family, but Yukari refused to return to the circus and ran away once again. Without much direction and no where else to go, Yukari ended up having to find a different school to attend, going through some very questionable means to do so. That's how she ended up in Matsubara Academy. It wasn't the greatest place to be, and Yukari struggles with some of the more mundane topics of a Japanese Highschool, but it was better than having to go back home or living in the streets. There was even a hero course at this school. So Yukari was going to make the most of it. Quirk: Rubber Soul - Yukari’s quirk gives her insane flexibility and turns her body into something akin to rubber. She can stretch any part of her body out, or expand it like a balloon. Yukari can contort her body extremely and literally tie herself into a knot with no problems. This also makes her practically immune to blunt-force attacks and being crushed to death, and even her bones cannot break. She can twist her neck without hurting herself or even suffocating. However she can still get hurt, and thus die, from cuts and stabs. Others: Despite being blind, Yukari’s other senses have sharpened exponentially, allowing her to live a somewhat normal life with a fair amount of ease. She utilizes all her senses, her ears, her nose, her sense of touch, and even taste to sense the area around her. While the range of her senses isn’t as far as some people's regular sight, she can still perceive most of the world around her in a 60 feet radius and react to it quickly. Yukari has an amazing sense of balance and acrobatics thanks to all her years with the circus. She can balance on a thread and always lands on her feet no matter how she falls. Her balance extends to anything else she’s using to balance too, such as unicycles, sticks, and other people. Yukari’s acrobatics also allows her to easily avoid people’s attempts to trip her or maneuvering on slippy surfaces like ice or water. Yukari is technically still homeless, but managed to apply to Matsubara due to her sorta part-time job at a flower store. The old woman who owns the building thought Yukari was one of her grandchildren, so Yukari took advantage of this to make the shop her residence and the old woman her legal guardian. Yukari does actually work there to help the old woman, mostly by carrying flowers and arranging them by scent. Yukari just lives at the shop after it closes. [/hider]
