[hider=Federica Simonova][list][*][u][b]Name:[/b][/u] Federica Simonova (Nickname: Rika) [*][u][b]Age:[/b][/u] 23 [*][u][b]Gender:[/b][/u] Female [img]https://i.imgur.com/0t70Ynh.png[/img] [*][u][b]Personality:[/b][/u] Has a heart as big as her presence, and smiles just as wide. Rika loves the spotlight, and relishes in the praise of her peers and the people. Breaks the ice with extreme prejudice, and lives to spite the concept of personal space. Though, as a straight shooter, she lacks some sensitivity. Puts her enemies down before putting them under: Sass 100. Loud and raucous, she would make a great motivational speaker, if she deferred to friends for agreement a bit less often. Has a strong sense of justice and difficulty holding her tongue about it. Morally grey, she is not—she could very easily butt heads with the pope. Firmly believes the old proverb that the fastest way to a person's heart is through the stomach. Loves giving food and receiving food, or better yet, recipes. Has a deep respect for anyone who isn't afraid to work up a sweat. Pretty clueless about romance. Was once called a "Blue Baller" in high school and thought it was a compliment or cool code name of some kind. [*][u][b]Skills:[/b][/u] A multi-talented mechanic. Played basketball and did calisthenics in high school. Loves to cook and free-run. Trains with the "run, fight, run" philosophy. Quick on her feet and has lots of stamina and endurance. Not extremely muscular, but deceptively strong. [*][u][b]Contract Rank:[/b][/u] B [*][u][b]Contract Abilities:[/b][/u] A shield-like weapon called the [url=https://imgur.com/cl7DPF6]Falling Star[/url]. Can deliver rocket-propelled punches. Compatible with DDF technology. [list][*]Barrier Knuckle: Projects her own disc-shaped energy field, creating a shield in front of her. [*]Barrier Fist: Projects a hand-shaped field to remotely punch, push, pull, or crush distant objects. [*]Barrier Flood: Injects the Falling Star's energy field into the ground, walls, or other objects, causing them to split apart. [*]Barrier Storm: Projects a Demon Denial Field in all directions, repelling all foes. Takes considerable energy to sustain, but short bursts are manageable.[/list] [*][u][b]Brief Backstory:[/b][/u] Grew up in an under-served district of the city, populated mostly by foreigners. This is the cause attributed to the tragedy that took place there. Two Devils appeared in Tokyo at once, and the local DDF simply didn't have the resources. Many of Rika's friends and neighbors died, and her mother was bound to a wheelchair. Rika herself was hospitalized, and suffered a four-day coma. When she woke up, she was furious that help never arrived, and the Devil and his minions got away. "I'll kill them all," she said, still groggy and disoriented, but having made up her mind. Unwilling to trust the DDF, believing that their negligence was responsible for what happened to her, she reluctantly made a Shadow Contract with the fallen angel she'd communicated with during her coma and hunted demons on her own for a few years, looking for the Devil that destroyed her home. The understaffed local branch was, approximately, happy to have her unofficial assistance in covering the area, but the locals were divided. Some said her presence there was just one more reason why the DDF wouldn't come to help them, if such a thing ever happened again. Others saw her as a guardian angel, and preferable to the DDF. In the end, it hardly mattered. After a botched job involving several Monsters that resulted in Rika nearly losing her arm, the DDF offered her a choice: join them, or be forced to stop. They might have tried tickling her ego a little when they said she was too valuable to lose, but it was still nice to hear—and it's also nice to be a fresh recruit with some experience—but, she still hasn't found the Devil who killed her friends.[/list][/hider] Cute bruiser/protecter. A shot in the dark with the power level; I don't really mind where she ranks.
