Sorta amusing, how tall all our characters are, in relation to the height of normal Japanese women.
 
I was thinking about that. Seems I'm the only one that likes playing shorties.
 
Well, Felilla's girl is also short, and the only reason I made Haruka 5'5 was because I didn't want her to be so much shorter than most others, but yeah...perhaps a height revamp/retcon is necessary. XD
 
Well, it's not like it's real or anything. In a roleplay with demons and...other things, height really is the least of my worries when reviewing a character sheet. In fact, it's perfectly alright with me.
 
Hi! This RP sounds amazaing, I am huge fan of feudal japan and of course yuri. Do you still have a free spot?

M'hm. But you'll be filling the last spot. :3

I wanted enough to be able to create a circle around our... shipment. <.< Which I still haven't revealed. Also, this is just going to serve as the OOC, if that's alright with everyone. Going to work on the main page a bit.

But height's super important RPly! Imagine if our characters are climbing a mountain, but because one of them is too short, their arms aren't long enough to reach an important handhold, and thus, they must either abandon the shorty, or find an alternate route!
 
Fashionably late as always. :D I would just like to ask, could my character use a firearm? Nothing fancy, just simple matchlock tenegashima, maybe teppo or some else gunpowder based gizmo. It seems that there is enough of melee fighters but lack of proper long rage support and don´t want make another bowu

"A dark and evil force is near."


Name:
Matsunaga Chieko

Age:
21
Height:
5'1"

Class:
Priestess

Occupation:
Shrine Maiden

Personality:
Easily Frightened | Humble | Modest | Honest | Indecisive | Timid | Gullible | Gentle

Weaknesses:
Severely lacking in hand-to-hand combat, and close encounters. What's a punch?
Relies heavily on her bow and arrow, without that, she is destined to fail in almost any battle.
Aside from the basic human frailty, Chieko is a pretty big coward. She loathes demons, and fears them greatly. She, like the most of society, does not understand the creatures and would rather have nothing to do with them. She would probably rather jump off of a bridge than associate with any demons.
As a Priestess, it's ingrained in Chieko to put others before herself. She often does this and winds up leaving little time and protection for herself, leaving her open for attack.
Her moral compass is always set to do what is right.

Biography:
Chieko was born in a humble village to equally humble parents. As a child, she showed a prowess for spirit magic, and the head priestess in her village instantly took notice of the girl. At a very young age she began training with Kanade, who was almost like a second mother to Chieko, and was taken from her home with her parents consent to train to become a Miko.

At the age of thirteen Chieko was already a fierce priestess, and an unrivaled Kyudoka. She was able to detect dark energy, seal away malign entities with ofuda, and purify hostile environments. After her mentor Kanade passed away, Chieko was suddenly left alone to train the rest of the Priestesses. Feeling that she didn't measure up, she left in favor of an adventure that would not only prove her worth, but also to spread the name of her village's shrine.

Skills:
Bless - Weapons imbued with Chieko's spirit energy, able to cut through dark energy, and seal away demonic entities. The ability to transfer Chieko's energy extends to anything, though she mainly uses this on her bow and arrow.
Heal - A heal spell ranging on effectiveness based on the amount of energy used. Quite exhausting for Chieko as it directly pulls from her life pool.
Minds Eye - By shutting her eyes and focusing, she is able to see the unseen.
Astral Projection - During sleep or meditation, Chieko is able to leave her body and travel. Unfortunately, this is quite dangerous as her spirit can become trapped, and she is near defenseless from evil entities, while her body is completely vulnerable.
Ofuda ~ Hand painted talisman with the ability to stun demons and dark spirits. Doesn't work against humans, but is effective at confusing them for a few seconds.
Guiding Light - A warm light envelopes Chieko, brightening the surrounding area like a human flash light, and providing protection again the darkness.

Weapons:
Kyudo Bow
Hand crafted arrows

Equipment:
Herb Pouch
Coin Purse
Canteen
Red Panda ~ Momiji​

@Admiral Merry Hmmm. I don't know about firearms. :< I like the traditional weapons before guns were introduced and I feel it fairs better against demons. Any other weapons besides guns, plz.

@ERode but then we can work together and give each other's boosts. Special bonding time.

5'7 is tall? Maybe it's just cause I'm a 'Mercan Asian, but 5'7 pretty damn short even compared to some other asians in the community. Though since your diet growing up plays a big part of how big you grow, I suppose it would only make sense that unless you came from and lived in poverty most of your life, you have a good chance of growing big.
 
My char is just tall, because a short demon, I might as well have made the girl version of Shippo.
 
I figured since my character is of supernatural descent 5'7" would be cool :3

Well, if you used Google for average heights, you'd notice that the average for Japanese women presently is 5'2. In the past, I'd think the average would be lower, due to differences in diet.
 




Appearance:

"Thank the stars for lighting your way or they may lead you into darkness. "

Name:
Awai


Age:
21


Height:
5'6"

Class:
Seductress/Poison Master

Occupation:
Geisha who with a side business as a poison maker

Personality:
Accommodating to the needs and comforts of others
Patient when she has purpose to be so
Vindictive when scorned
Cruel when exasperated
Sensual but not romantic
Charming when profitable
Blunt otherwise
Secretive when it comes to matters of her own heart

Self interested and Profit Driven
Morally Flexible

Hedonistic
Open minded
Accepting

Weaknesses:
1. Awai has next to no close combat skills. Unless she can use her sex appeal to get an opponent to lower their guard and go for a cheap gut or heart shot or get out of range, she's helpless in anything up close.

2. Her poisons, while deadly and very useful, do occasionally backfire. She certainly has a higher tolerance to them than most but a long exposure will harm her inducing vomiting, weakness, skin abrasions or chemical burns, and having to rest for long periods afterward. This backfire occurs if an opponent is able to redirect her miasma clouds back towards her, if she must use the cloud as cover to take out an opponent or protect and ally, or even if a strong wind occurs. Also an intelligent opponent might be able to use distance weapons to strike one of her flasks and cause it to explode while it's still on her person. While even long term exposure is unlikely to kill her, she won't be very useful for some time afterwards.

3. Awai fears being scarred or otherwise disfigured. In the event that putting herself in such danger for a friend or for victory's sake, she would be hard pressed to make herself do it.

4. Awai's seduction aura often doesn't work on women which can put her at a disadvantage when fighting against them.

5. Being of celestial lineage means she's much more suited for the night time. Her fair skin sunburns easily and her eyesight takes a slight hit as well. This also seems to leave her more vulnerable to fire based magics or anything like that. Her natural sped up healing does not apply to burns.


Biography:
Awai's past is a strange one. With no surname and a mysterious way about her, it's difficult to get much out of her. However, if you managed to find someone who knew her from childhood or managed to worm the information out of one of her closer clients, you'd hear an interesting tale that hardly seems believable...

Awai's father was a samurai of noble lineage and great skill. Pledged to the Emperor himself, this powerful, noble man took on a vow of celibacy and promised himself to the Emperor in mind, body, and spirit. Once while riding in the woods surrounding the Imperial Palace, Awai's father came across a maiden bathing in a pool. Her loveliness was so overwhelming he could do naught but watch her in awe. With flawless white skin and long, shimmering hair, the maiden stirred desires in him he had buried long ago. The maiden, noticing her observer, beckoned him to her and the two lay down under the stars together and made love. In the morning, he was left with nothing but a few strands of her long hair and the sinking feeling that he had broken his vows. For months the samurai searched for the maiden, but was directed again and again to the legends of the Celestial maidens, who sewed the stars in the sky and walked the earth only when they sought a man to give them a child.

When many months had passed the samurai prepared to lay his guilt aside, but was instead greeted by the celestial maiden, holding an infant girl in her arms who bore the same piercing green eyes but lacking the snow white hair of her mother. The maiden lay the babe in the samurai's arms. She could not keep her, she had not bred true but instead inherited only half of her immortal nature. The maiden left without another word. The samurai was disgraced by the Emperor for breaking his vows and forced to turn to the life of a Ronin to provide for his daughter.

Awai grew up with her father, staying at various inns or with wives of her father's associates and always on the rode with him. Though he loved her dearly, his disgrace had left him a broken man, a killer with no drive outside of his daughter. Awai spent many nights caring for her father when he drank himself into a stupor. Whenever she could she learned of poisons and other skills she would need when her father passed from friendly spirits or women of ill repute. When she turned thirteen, her father was killed in battle. With no inheritance or family, Awai sold herself to a notable geisha who accepted the girl for her great beauty and natural grace. While training to please men and entertain the rulers of society, Awai studied everything she could. She learned to use her mother's immortal gifts to sway the hearts of men, to kill a man with a prick of a needle or a breath of perfumed poison.

She became well known for her skills and soon paid her debt to her mistress. It was then she found herself offered a place in the very palace that turned her father away. She took the job, unsure of her own intentions. Years past and she became a favorite of the Emperor, not for dealing with him but for her use in learning secrets from men of power and her adeptness with poisoning enemies of the crown.

She wrestled regularly with turning her poison on the rulers of her nation in revenge, but ultimately found an opportunity for a different life with the offer for this escort mission.

Skills:

1. Aura of Seduction- Funneling energy into her aura, Awai is able to make herself extremely appealing. Everything from her scent, to her movements, to the sound of her voice become an instrument of manipulation. Children, women who have no desire for other women, and animals are obviously immune. This effect is very useful for making others want her more than they want to fight or kill or whatever else and usually makes them desire to please her. She can use this vulnerability to extract information, distract an opponent in battle, or otherwise make others a non threat. This ability is limited by the senses of a target. If she cannot be seen, heard, smelled, or touched by the target it is ineffective. Making it more powerful also drains Awai significantly and makes it difficult for her to target specific targets. This ability can also backfire majorly when it comes to demons who seem not to desire to please her but have less than wholesome intentions. Putting herself in a position where she can't quickly cancel the effect can also be a danger for obvious reasons.

2. Poison crafting- Awai has extensive knowledge of the plants and other substances that can be used to make poisons. She is near expert in the craft and can make poisons in liquid, bottled gas, a powder, or for the most powerful effect, in a miasmic flask. The flasks are carried on her person and once uncorked do not begin to leak for a few seconds so she must carefully plan when and how to deploy them. She can also make traps triggered by wire or an explosive if given enough time. These flasks have a variety of uses depending on the poison from paralysis, inducing sleep or unconsciousness, rapid health reduction, or even horrifying hallucinations which sometimes cause confusion and madness. These flasks must be prepared before battle of course. She can also render weapons poisonous for a few uses for herself and allies.

3. Immortal qualities- Awai will not age further than her current appearance, has a heightened (but not demon level) healing rate, enhanced vision (night only) and seems to be immune to most sickness outside of her poisons.

4. Geisha skill set- Sing, dancing, love making, entertaining, all of these things are part of her career.

5.Wire manipulation- Awai is adept at creating traps and webs with razor wire. As a distance fighter, she will often take a few moments to shield herself and other distance fighters with a near invisible labyrinth of razor wire that make it very difficult to get close to her. She can also hang flasks from these wires that pop open when the wire they are attached to is disturbed. This can obviously present a friendly fire hazard.

6. Ranged Accuracy- Awai is very skilled with throwing weapons, namely senbon needles (usually subtle and poisoned) and almost never misses. These attacks rarely cause death but are a more accurate and slower alternative to miasmic flasks. They are also a last resort if an enemy gets too close.

Weapons:
-Miasmic flasks (of varying sizes)
-senbon needles tucked in her hair, obi, and on obvious holsters
-a small stiletto type knife kept on a strap on her thigh for emergencies


Equipment:
-poison materials kept in a pack (herbs, minerals, bottles, pouches, etc)
-spare kimonos (also kept in pack)
-basic survival supplies (flint, canteen, dried fruits and meats, etc)

I'm done and ready for approval. Let me know if anything needs to be changed : 3 Also I changed her height slightly not that it matters x D

Oh ho, how fancy. Would you be interested in having Awai be connected to Haruka in some way? Seeing how the latter worked as a bodyguard of sorts for geisha and all.

Also, I'd imagine that Aura of Seduction WOULD be useful against children, because it's not like they're immune to crushes and whatnot.

This effect is very useful for making others want her more than they want to fight or kill or whatever else and usually makes them desire to please her.

All things considered, I'd imagine that it's all dependent on the personality of those influenced. Pretty sure that dominant, aggressive types (run of the mill bandits, samurai etc) would be more inclined to aggro towards her due to that. But hey, maybe it'd work in moderation. Demons aren't the only beings with less than wholesome intention~

Oh wait, damn, Aura of Seduction could backfire horribly if her allies are effected by it as well. XD

Haha true. Right I mentioned that if she can't cancel the effect quick enough it can land her in serious trouble. I just imagine since demons are more beastial that it would act more like a pheromone on them. As for children...eh I'd rather not mess with it. Creeps me out to think about x D

And yeah! They can totally know each other : 3
 
Mm...perhaps they met a few times in the districts, before Awai moved up beside the Emperor's entourage?

Heh, maybe Awai messed up with poisons before, and Haruka thought she had been attacked by a customer. XD
