What do you guys think? :3<br/><br/><br/><strong>Name:</strong>Sakurazuka Kaori<br/><strong>Age:</strong>17<br/><strong>Year:</strong>2nd<br/><strong>Arcana:</strong>Hermit<br/><strong>Weapon:</strong>Umbrella (Fencing)<br/><strong>Persona:</strong>The Bride with White Hair<br/><br/>(http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a248/marigreywords/Persona/Schoolgirl.jpg)<br/><br/><strong>Description:</strong>Standing at exactly 5'0", Kaori doesn't exactly strike an imposing figure. Petite nearly to the point of seeming underweight, with pale skin from avoiding the outdoors whenever possible, she definately seems like a definite nerd. Her hair is black and straight, only reaching down to her neck. Her eyes are a sharp, dark brown, though she wears frameless glasses that tend to cover them up most of the time.<br/><br/>When it comes to fashion, Kaori is a fan of the functional over the fashionable. She wears a school uniform when going to school, and a track suit when doing exercise. For her casual clothes she wears modest sundresses, jeans and a jacket, simple things like that. She is never without her headphones, and oddly enough, an umbrella, if only to be prepared.<br/><br/><strong>Personality:</strong>Kaori suits her Hermit Arcana very much. She is a quiet and reserved individual, more than willing to sit in the back and let others take control. She usually thinks in a very analytical way, organizing her thoughts carefully to the point of redundancy almost, leading people who meet her for the first time to assume she's a little slow. This is obviously proven wrong when they realize that according to the exam scores she is currently the top-ranking student in the school, and tied for 1st place amongst all of the students in the nation.<br/><br/>In truth, Kaori does still have a desire for friendship, and even love . . though her traumatic first year has made her cover it all up. In an apparent contrast to her introverted nature, she does have a strong sense of responsibility and justice. Her training in fencing is enough proof of that. If pushed too far she will get herself involved in something dangerous . . if she deems it necessary.<br/><br/><strong>Backround:</strong>Kaori is the daughter of a diagnostician (her father), and her former olympic fencing champion mother. Her father made sure that she valued the arts and education, supporting her when she chose to learn how to play the piano. Her mother taught her to be a good person, as well as passing along her skills with the sabre. Needless to say she had a rather interesting childhood with parents that have such strong personalities.<br/><br/>In primary school she was a popular, adorable little girl. Her little friends loved listening to her play the opening themes of their favorite anime shows on the piano, and helping them with homework. When she got to junior high her father was transferred to a hospital in another school, where she had a . . similar life. She helped the other students a little less, and focused on her studies more, leading to perfect grades till it was time for high school.<br/><br/>Her father moved the family once more when he was given the opportunity to become chief of medicine at another high school, and she moved as well to her current school. Unfortunately, her school life ended up quite different at this school. For the first part of her first term things went okay. She helped a few girls study, and privately practiced her music and fencing.<br/><br/>The moment the first exams hit, and she scored higher than anyone else in the school, that's when things got weird. Some of the more popular (and resentful) girls organized the students that didn't like a 1st year showing them all up, and Kaori began to get bullied. Through the end of the year the bullying increased, then changed to what was primarily her being ignored and Kaori ignoring most of the students right back.<br/><br/>With her 2nd year starting she's sort-of gained the reputation for being a bit of an ice queen, even if she doesn't really want it to be that way.<br/><br/>(http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a248/marigreywords/Persona/ice-prisoner.jpg)<br/><br/><strong>Persona: </strong>The Bride With White Hair<br/><br/>The legendary martial artist from chinese epics who was betrayed by her lover, and left to become a mountain hermit, only traveling down to do heroic deeds from time to time.<br/><br/>Her persona is an unusual mix of abilities: a support persona with a physical attack talent. She uses mainly -Kaja spells and healing spells, though rather than increasing Kaori's magical strength it improves her speed and physical strength.<br/><br/>Possible Spells: Rakukaja, Makakaja, Tarukaja, Sukukaja, Dia, Media, Diarama, Mediarama, Bufu, Bufula, Straight Slash.<br/><br/>Kaori uses music to summon her persona, though not by playing it. She turns up the volume on her headphones and lets the music seep into her mind, using it to summon her persona that way.
