Kyoshi
Color is YellowGreenName: Chosei Primer
Alias: Kyoshi
Age: 18
Alignment: Hero
Loyalty: Minutemen
Appearance: Chosei is a taller woman with a slightly thinner figure, complemented by dark brown hair and a somewhat Japanese resemblance in her facial structure. She tends to wear the colors of green and beige within her casual outfits, and she constantly carries around a generic brown backpack, containing her cape outfit and a makeup set. The cape outfit that Chosei wears is a very close copy to Avatar Kyoshi from the series of the same name, and the makeup acts as a way for her to conceal her true identity while she acts as Kyoshi.
Chosei was born in San Francisco as a smaller baby to a couple that was not married yet but there was an obvious feeling of romance between the two, evidenced by their marriage a few months after the birth of Chosei. In her early years, Chosei excelled in a social stance, despite being rather silent as a child and preferring to listen instead of act, she treated everyone with the respect they deserved and never expressed any ill will towards anyone she had met unless they were rude to somebody or some thing.
Throughout her schooling years, Chosei held her grades up high as she made As and Bs consistently, and she expanded outwards once she hit high-school through with her pathway being spread out with an idea of wanting to be a physical therapist when she finally can work. Everything was going fine for Chosei until she learned that a better job opportunity for her dad was in Denver. She didn't exactly know what the job was, only that it involved parahumans, but she knew it was a better opportunity for her family as her father was the only source of income and Chosei didn't really push for much of a fight as it would prevail to no change.
San Francisco would put up a fight for Chosei though, as one of the last weeks that she was in the city caused her trigger. She and her mother were going on a trip to Alcatraz as a sort of last memory of their home before they left it behind in pursuit of a new life, and an earthquake caused by either natural occurrences or an undiscovered parahuman sent the ferry to Alcatraz into ruin, trapping the mother and daughter between the bottom of a bay with water rapidly rising around them, and a ferry. There was no feasible escape for the two and things looked dismal and deadly for the both of them, until one of them had a surge as the boat was lifted by seemingly nothing. Chosei brought the ground up from under the two, allowing the boat to ascend slightly out of the water and get the two of them enough time to barely get above water. The time was a traumatic experience, but it helped Chosei figure out what she was truly capable of. The next few weeks after that were spent in efforts moving to a new apartment building in Denver.
After a while of schooling, there was rumors of a new show on TV that Chosei's new friend was really looking forward to, and she decided to take a look at it. It was there that she discovered the character Kyoshi, who has the ability to manipulate the Earth around her to her will much like how Chosei did and continued to do since that day trying to obtain a better understanding of her power. After a bit of sewing (she was surprisingly well at that), her cape outfit was born and the hero known as Kyoshi had come into existence with hurling pebbles everywhere and such.

Personality
Motivations: For the most part, Chosei still wishes to pursue a career in physical therapy, but has been thinking about martial arts. She largely wants to help those who need help, and she'll do whatever it takes to accomplish her goals. That being said, she does not want to join the Protectorate, as that's where her father has a job at and it would cause incredible amounts of conflict within the family. Reasoning for this is how her father has seen the kinds of things that the capes have been put through, and he is afraid of having to worry about his daughter being in a line of fire, so he forbid her to join the Protectorate at any cost, no matter how severe.
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Likes:
- Avatar: The Last Airbender
- Cosplay
- Old Comic Books
Dislikes:
- Flying in an Airplane
- The Ocean
- Being underwater for extended periods of time.
Derangement: Chosei is very afraid of water as a result of her trigger event, and will not swim in anything that goes past her lower leg if she has to. In addition, she is afraid of flying in an airplane as the height makes it incredibly difficult to use her power effectively. She can use her power to "fly", however, and it's not as scary for her to do so.
Parahumanism
Skills: Chosei knows Japanese and can speak it fluently, as well as read it just as easily. She knows karate, and commonly mixes it with her power as a way of both making it flashy and making it more authentic to the show where her cape name is from. She's book smart and knows her way around a kitchen with great suave, but she's not very skilled beyond that.
Classification: Shaker
Details: Chosei can manipulate earth to her desires, with near free reign as long as it follows with the rules of her limitations. The extent of the manipulation goes to her being able to levitate it, break it, move it, fly on it, block with it, and even dig through it. The extent of the earth stretches from being able to move sand to being able to work with cement and concrete. The extent of the range is in a 3 meter radius around her body at any given point, and can be increased to 10 meters with complete focus on a task at hand. The amount of earth that can be manipulated depends on the mass, whereas she can manipulate it without any fear of weight, but the multitasking of it is affected. If she can multitask better with more smaller rocks than she can with multiple giant boulders (she can't hold two boulders at once). Lastly, Chosei can propel the earth she manipulates with incredible efficiency and expertise, able to both block with it and fling it at those who attacks with alarming speeds, sometimes fatal if she's completely lost in focus.
Limitations: Any "earth" outside of the range that she can manipulate is unable to be affected, and she cannot bend metal. In addition to these factors, she cannot work with the earth as well unless she's working through her martial arts training, meaning feet on the ground... or some form of ground anyway. She can still bend earth without martial arts, but it's severely limited. The speed at which she can bend earth is also heavily affected if she is unable to move, as her movements somewhat act as a catalyst for exerting kinetic energy through something. She doesn't need to have a lot of movement to make something move slowly, but if she wants to propel it through the air with actual speed, she needs her arms at the very least.
Equipment: There's a make up kit in her bag as well as her actual outfit in the bag, but there's also a small badge in her bag that may be a reference to something greater...
nah fam it's a franklin badge
