Rough, incomplete, statless character profile. You guys can use this to get started on your character creation. Don't bother posting or PMing them until I get mine done, make the system, and give my stats! You can PM me about specific things though.<br/><br/>(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v322/kobiyashi/c52f68c863f47a0ad2234539bb20f2ed.jpg)<br/>Name: Leona Beardsley<br/>Gender:  Female<br/>Height:  5'9"<br/>Weight:  140<br/>Hair:  Blue<br/>Eyes:  Turquoise<br/>Age:  17<br/>Nationality: Swedish<br/>Style: Touhoufuhai<br/><br/>Background: Many children were born in the days following the 13th Gundam Fight, as happens after any major crisis. Allenby Beardsley, the Fighter from Sweden, was one of many mothers in that day, and raised her daughter to be just as scrappy and strong as she was. Nobody ever knew who the father was, but given Allenby's habits, it could have been any number of men. Leona never gave it much thought, and took on her role as a driven fighter. Allenby's strong friendship with Domon Kasshu gave Leona access to the strongest martial artist in the Earth Sphere, the King of Hearts himself, and she learned well from his teachings, becoming one of the pre-eminent practioners of the style, apart from Domon himself and his son Ryumaru, with whom Leona quickly formed a strong friendship. They competed strongly, and even became a couple for a short time before Ryumaru's disappearance. Ryumaru and his father never quite got along, however, and Leona became Domon's favorite, receiving his most secret teachings and also inheriting the newest of the Shining line of Gundams from Rain: Burning Gundam. She enters this year's competition as a serious favorite.<br/><br/>Personality: Leona is a whole lot like Domon Kasshu. Determined, unwavering, single minded, exceptionally skilled. This is of course due in no small part to his tutelage and a significant amount of spunky attitude from her infamously energetic mother. She is a lot more serious than her mother, however, again because of learning under Domon, and the fact that Allenby was often nowhere to be found during her Leona's life. She is an unapologetic straight shooter who is at an unfortunate juncture in her young life. Her lover left her, her mother is missing, and her Master is too busy. She throws herself fully into the fight to try and escape.<br/><br/>Likes: Strong people, fighting, determination, martial arts, solitude, beautiful women, courageous men, challenges, superior opponents<br/>Dislikes: Cowards, excessive talking, large crowds, liars, quitters, politicians<br/>Habits: Tends to seek solitude practicing her art<br/><br/>Mobile Suit Description: Burning Gundam, the long-awaited successor to God Gundam. As 18 years have passed, the suit is greatly advanced from the previous God design - the variations of the Finger-style special attack have been quite expanded and refined, along with significant general improvements to every part of the mech. However, the basics remain the same, with the mech designed primarily around hand-to-hand combat, with support weapons only for use when necessary. Its main weapons are its hands and feet, the feet now being equipped with the Shining tech as well. Leona has adapted her own more impact-oriented talents to its use as well, with such attacks as Burning Punch and Burning Kick becoming mainstays. Advances in magnetized joints allow all mechs, not just Burning Gundam, to be significantly more agile, while advances in metal compounds allows them to be much lighter. 1:1 representation is now completely possible, and it is exemplified in Burning Gundam.<br/>(http://mahq.net/mecha/gundam/gff/f90ii.jpg)
