Name: Arasai Yuki
Magical Girl Name (Optional): Sorcerous Princess Yukihime
Age: 16
Wish: "I want to be someone special, someone whose name everyone knows, who will be remembered forever!"
Bio: Yuki led a humdrum life. It seemed like everyone around her was a mediocrity. Her dad was an editor at an academic publishing house, her mom a book designer for the same. They provided well, kept a nice home, took the kids for holidays at the usual places. Her brother was dumb as a brick, a goofball, sweet and caring at times but mostly an annoyance. He'd just graduated high school, failed to get into college, and was preparing to enlist in the self-defence forces for lack of any better direction.
She herself... well, if she were honest she was pretty boring too. She was slim and pretty enough to not be anxious about male attention, but neither was she really beautiful or sexy enough to be of note. She attracted random dopey boys but not the hunks. She hung out with girls who were just as dull and vapid as she felt herself to be. She didn't have a particularly interesting hobby, or talent. She got average grades, partly because she was just so bored with class. Everything was just... dull, and grey, and
exactly the same every single day.
If everybody around her died the world would just keep going. Nobody would miss them. There'd be nothing to miss. And they seemed perfectly fine with that.
But Yuki wasn't. For all that she kept a placid, well-behaved exterior, she yearned for... something. Something bigger, better, brighter. A place in the world, that would be all hers, unique, irreplaceable. That yearning became an ache, a gnawing hunger.
And then she met... it.
Personality: Yuki comes across as somewhat distant and standoffish, even cynical. She assumes that most people she meets aren't worth investing too much time or energy in, because they're pretty much the same as everybody else. When she comes across someone special though, she seems to come alive, becoming vivacious and solicitous in proportion to how interesting that person is. In magical girl form, she's as vibrant and confident as she is normally cold and insecure - perhaps to the point of overconfidence, bordering on arrogance.
Magical Weapon: Frost Brand - This arming sword is wreathed with clear, blue dancing cold flames when drawn. These flames chill the target of its strikes, making armour brittle with cold, extinguishing fires, and freezing flesh.
Magical Powers: Dance of the snow - Yuki can control the weather in a limited area around her, creating a zone of freezing temperatures, howling winds and snow. She can vary this effect from the lightest flurry to a full-on blizzard. She is able to lift herself with the winds, although she can't manoeuvre very finely. At a pinch she can even create a barrier of ice to protect herself, but this requires a lot of effort and is quite draining. This power extends to finer control of cold in general, but that level of finesse is beyond Yuki at the moment.
Meguca grace - Part of being a magical girl is not just saving the world but doing it with style. When transformed, Yuki moves with a grace, precision and beauty that puts Olympic figure skaters to shame. She is physically enhanced in other ways as well, but the most visible change is in her coordination.
