[hider=Definitely not a magical girl]Name: Kobayashi Rika (小林俐嘩) / Shoukou 勝康, Steel Dragon [b]Age[/b]: 17 (looks a bit older in Esper form) [b]Gender[/b]: Female [b]Appearance[/b]: [i]Mundane[/i]: A girl with messy brown hair and light blue eyes. She’s somewhat taller than one might expect for someone who appears mostly Japanese, largely owing to foreign ancestry before her family (unfortunately) ended up in Pax Septimus. Tends to dress very casually, in clothes that are easy to move around in. [i]Esper[/i]: [url=https://i.imgur.com/lA2T262.jpeg]Basically genderswapped Siegfried[/url]. Tall and athletic with long silver hair and glowing teal eyes. Dark clothes, and silvery armor over her shoulders, arms, knees, and feet. Also sports a set of dragon horns, which she is not above headbutting with. No wings or anything like that. . . or, at least, not yet. Of course, right now, she's mostly just got an excessively fancy two-piece swimsuit on, and wields a pool noodle. [b]Grimoire[/b]: A pendant made of an unknown silvery metal, in the shape of an oak leaf. [b]Instrument:[/b] Gram - Emerald (A) WEAPON: Greatsword DESCRIPTION: A weapon that manages to be ornate in its simplicity, Gram is a large two-handed sword bearing a prominent crossguard. It is either much lighter than it appears, or Rika is much stronger than she looks.

[b]TRIVIA[/b] Background: As far as Rika knows, she’s nobody special. Her father is often away for work (and, as some would say, for a break from this hellhole) while her mother puts in extra work to ensure Rika and her younger brother are well taken care of despite the environment. She has a good relationship with her parents, though (like many people) she doesn’t know that much about their background or lives before she entered them. They’re just Mom and Dad. Her history as an esper is equally unremarkable; in fact, she isn’t yet aware that Gram’s true form isn’t a fancy pool noodle, having become an esper only during this eternal vacation. She bumbled into it one evening on the beach, after unsuccessfully looking for the owner of such a nice (and unique) piece of jewelry. Personality: In polite terms, Rika is a person who relies heavily on intuition and usually acts on what she can see in front of her. She presents herself openly to the world (within reason - she does still maintain a secret identity) and encourages other people to do the same. In less polite terms, she’s ignorant, gullible, and dense. Rika is well-meaning at heart but struggles to sort out good from bad unless it’s fairly unambiguous to start with. She’s got a strong tomboyish streak and isn’t afraid to apply her athleticism to problems. [/hider]
