And example bio posted: [u][b]Student[/b][/u]: [list][*][u][b]Name:[/b][/u] Adachi Ruriko [*][u][b]Age:[/b][/u] 16 [*][u][b]Gender:[/b][/u] Female [*][u][b]Appearance:[/b][/u] [url=http://safebooru.org//images/1372/d7049f54a7b33b1eb0df89e851d24f269b0b3b66.jpg?1438216]Naturally she only has the cape and hat in a fight. She's also quite short at somewhat under five feet, around 4'10.[/url] [*][u][b]Personality:[/b][/u] Ruriko is a rather serious figure. She takes her place at Otsuki Academy very seriously, and feels that she has little time for any kind of foolishness. In her mind, her purpose at the Academy is simple. To hone her skills and win. That is it in its entirety. Therefore, anything she finds dumb or foolish she is quick to be dismissive towards. Ruriko takes pride in herself, and often is quite straightfaced. However, her taciturn appearance is quickly broken when something manages to seriously annoy her. Ruriko can at times seem quite cold and unsympathetic, but this is largely due to her dedication to her purpose at the Academy. Deep down, she is somewhat lonely, but refuses to acknowledge this sentiment. Ruriko is also rather easily flustered, which also deeply annoys her. Ruriko has a poorly-concealed jealous streak, largely towards girls who are taller then herself. The girl is also disapproving of anyone who believes they are more skilled then herself, and is liable to challenge them to battle to attempt to prove that they are wrong. [*][u][b]Skills:[/b][/u] Ruriko has trained from a younge age in traditional Japanese swordplay. Her capabilities in Iaido are surprising for her age, especially. Ruriko's second offensive capability is her remarkably poor cooking capabilities, which are so bad that they resulted in one student having to visit the nurse's office. [*][u][b]Equipment:[/b][/u] Divine Gear: Starlight Masamune. The blade itself supposedly forged by a descendant of the legendary swordsmith Masamune, for the Adachi family. Regardless of if this is true or not, it calls upon the legacy of Masamune for power. [*][u][b]Abilities:[/b][/u] Starlight Masamune is a finely-crafted katana outfitted with a set of vents and light blue plating up the side of the blade, a Light Engine fused into the hilt. It can fire off curved blasts of mana with slashes, a technique that Ruriko uses in combination with Iaido. The blade itself can be altered, splitting and expanding, altering its grip, to become a much larger sword(and an even bigger sword after that), or even divide into a rain of smaller blades and reform. Finally, by generating a smaller blade and driving it into a target's shadow, Ruriko can temporarily pin her target to a spot. [*][u][b]Brief Backstory:[/b][/u] Ruriko was born to the prestigious Adachi family, a family that had trained generations of swordsmen and women using Ritual Technology. Ruriko is simply the latest daughter in this line, and was trained harshly from childhood in order to use the Starlight Masamune. Her childhood gave her a very success-minded, irritable, unsociable outlook on life, and as Otsuki was the local Academy she was enrolled to show support of it by her family.[/list]
