I honestly didn't know this was a one-chance-only thing, to be honest. That, plus I'm not sure where I went wrong. You said that you wanted things to be more serious if the character had actual combat experience, so I went from simply kuudere to what I actually posted, but you mentioned lack of PTSD on the current version, so I'm not sure if I was too serious or not serious enough... or if it's a backstory issue, which could be corrected just by having more information available. Or if it's some sort of nebulous power issue. "I don't like where this has gone" is a rather vague rejection reason.

If you'd just explained, I could have fixed it. The thing I wanted to play was pretty simple ('experienced "big sister" type; not good with people). 

Though I'm not seeking to rejoin, slightly more detailed feedback than 'I like this' would hardly be amiss. Writing a bio and hoping that it fits the GM's preferences is a messy approach to character creation.

So, there's a few fields that need ironing out--history is waiting on a little more info, and personality needs a bit of expansion, but on the whole... pretty complete.



Name(s): Ichigo Momoko
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Personality: To her schoolmates, Momoko is someone willing to help for no other reason than she's able to, but too shut off to get close to. From a distance, an admirable aloofness that goes well with her stature and bearing, but up close more difficult to deal with: it's simply hard to get along with someone that doesn't appear to react to anything. It's more clear that she's simply extremely guarded around people if you managed to watch her with her sister, or the few childhood friends she still knows: warmer, more expressive... yet no more outgoing. Even underneath everything, Momoko's shy.
History: Years ago, when her sister was still a baby, Momoko's parents were performing charitable work in China. Unfortunately, as the least stable region in the present Earth, it was vulnerable to violent outbursts; whether riots against conditions, remnants of the old guard trying to restore order, warlords, or simply terrorists with some grudge to bear against groups. Whoever it was, they bit off more than they could chew upon attacking her family.
Even though her response was almost immediate, it was in many ways too late--her parents, even with treatment, succumbed to their injuries, and her sister was left permanently injured. Since then, even in one of the academies, she's been over-eager to offer to serve in violent places, yet at the same time trying to be more than simply a big sister to Ringo.
Magic Style: Strike hard, strike fast, and never get hit. Momoko's style is utterly single-minded in its lack of versatility--everything is geared around melee and the offence; defensive behaviour outside of the necessary is almost totally beyond her repertoire. Compensate for your style's deficiencies by having enough skill to use it in ways it was never meant to.
Magic Colour: A pale, somewhat creamy, pink; despite being totally at odds with her attitude, Momoko's colour is rarely commented upon, for much the same reason that hulking bikers get to talk about how their flower garden is doing without anyone raising questions.
Attacks
Claíomh Solais: A bright flash of light, blinding in its intensity yet harmless. Like most other offensive spells that Momoko uses, it tends to be focused on her blade--yet that's just a guideline; she could force it with a broomstick or even a spoon, though the effects would be hugely reduced.
Lævateinn: Your standard flaming sword. Well, it's a pretty impressive bonfire, since it makes the blade seem twice the size, but still.
Dainsleif: A spell that gives Momoko's blade an overwhelmingly negative aura, injuries it causes starting to rot at an accelerated pace. Yet some component of the magic makes the injuries reciprocal--though less severe, any blow struck with this in effect will be mirrored on the pink-haired girl's body. Perhaps unsurprisingly, she's a fan of using it.
Fragarach: Quite simply: jet-propelled sword, with its wielder holding on tight for the ride. More of a defence breaker than anything else.
Arondight: The only offensive spell wielded by Momoko that relies on holding a blade in the first place, Arondight reshapes it and sharpens it. A perfect longsword, with a magical edge that gives it abnormal cutting properties. Though incompatible with any other attack, for a fight without reliance on attacks it's her favourite.


Spells:
Aegis: An all-purpose block, its aim isn't to stop the attack entirely--simply hold it long enough that Momoko can get out of the way entirely, or prepare a counterattack. Given her focus on offence over defence, it's rarely used, but occasionally useful.
Yata-no-Kagami: This spell is a more specialised defence than the Aegis, as well as more used due to pushing ranged foes to come closer: it's a glimmering mirror that can reflect ranged magical attacks, though something that can be overwhelmed.
Argo: It grants magical flight, but is more akin to surfing on a magical construct than the flight that Momoko normally employs. Whilst less manoeuvrable than her more combat-oriented methods, it's also far more reasonable to use for personal reasons.


Special Attacks:
Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi: The only ranged attack Momoko possesses, her blade briefly creates vast pulses of razor wind with each blow--either a concentrated storm via thrusting, or a larger, yet less destructive, series of slashes. Or mixing and matching.
Excalibur: This is a single blow infused with as much magical power as possible; Momoko's ultimate attack is one that seems to be only a blazing glow of light. Though it could indirectly replicate Claíomh Solais, its main purpose is to sear through anything that the swung blade comes into contact with.
Magical Equipment: Vimana: the name given to the strange-looking harness that Momoko wears whenever fighting, where possible. When powered by sufficient magic, it goes from a mere 'hovering' to extremely agile flight--fast and, importantly, able to adjust any of the six wings to change trajectory, including going backwards. Extremely useful if you want near-perfect three dimensional movement.
Joyeuse: the blade that the pink-haired girl wields is, for the most part, nothing but a modern alloy of impressive durability. However, it has also been designed to be as conducive to amplifying spells directly affecting it as possible--whilst Momoko's magic would be usable on a butter knife, it would be rather pathetic compared to with Joyeuse.
Combat Equipment: Momoko's boots are tough and have a rather extreme amount of grip, capable of holding her upside down. She has a thing for heights.
Misc. Equipment: The item that the swordsman most treasures is a locket holding three pictures: one each of her parents, and a more recent, and frequently updated, one of her younger sister. As for minor possessions... most amusingly, her bedroom looks like a showroom for soft-toys. Those on her bed are all particularly worn, notably.
Combat Experience: Unusually, she has experience. Momoko doesn't want it but even if she could give it up, the swordsman would refuse. The more experience that she has, the less anyone else has to get hurt or learn the same things.
Hopes, Dreams, Goals: Peace might be an impossible ideal but simply keeping anyone around safe, protecting her sister, and keeping other people away from having to fight or do the things she's regretted? That's enough. It might not be peace, but it's enough to strive for it.
Fears, Flaws and Anxieties: Momoko is rather unhealthily worried for her sister's welfare, intrinsically placing it above her own. Not only is it an easy way to destabilise her, the pink-haired girl will have no compunction against going straight into a trap. She's only slightly better for people who simply happen to be under her protection for any reason--even self-invented. Something of a martyr complex, despite being so unwelcoming.
Living Family: Ichigo Ringo (younger sister, 9)--though at times sickly, as well as bearing lasting evidence of her injuries.
Yuri: Enabled, but good luck.
