black lionessAppearance: Mesu isn't one for dressing up too fancily, but she at least wants to look decent. Her hair is an untamed mane of black strands, forever looking like she just got out of bed. Her eyes are a bright orange-amber that seem to glow when she is angry or excited. Her body is lanky and tall, her skin thin yet tan, her teeth a pure and dazzling white. Even when in uniform, she will wear the boy’s version of it with her black fingerless gloves. If told to change into a girl uniform, she will reluctantly do so, but will be a bit on edge wearing a skirt in front of a ton of males. The outfits she wears outside of school consist of army cargo pants and a black sweatshirt as one outfit, a red flannel shirt and black pants as the other. She also wears black converse with her clothes, regardless of school or outside. She has no fancy clothes or party dresses, nor as she ever worn heels.
Name: Mesu Shishi (Mesu-kun is what most of her friends call her)
Gender: Girl
Age: 15 years
Height: 6’1”
Weight: 120 lbs (54.5 kgs)
Personality: Some might think Mesu is a badass by her appearance. And honestly? She could beat someone up if she wanted to. She would if you piss her off enough, but that is extremely hard to do. The girl isn't short-tempered at all; in fact, she's just a quiet guardian over those younger and older than she is herself. Find yourself in a tough situation? Call her, and she'll do whatever it takes to help you out. Very watchful and strategic, usually thinking before she does anything that involves a consequence. Her intelligence is above average on the scale of smartest to dumbest, but she can sometime be a bit clueless or oblivious when it comes to social situations.
Background: Once, an amber-eyed woman fell in love with a dark-haired man. They had only met once in school, and they both fell pretty hard. A decade had passed and they got married, happily moving to the country-side where they can live with their Quirks in peace and without having to fight off villains. They had two daughters, twins that didn't look alike at all. One was a beautiful and rare Quirkless being, with the hair as bright as the sun and eyes like the stars at night. The other was a girl with the looks of both her father and mother, along with the same Quirk and stature as her father. The two grew up side by side, chasing birds in the yellow fields of their plot of land, catching fish in the streams in the woods, or even picking flowers by the woods. Nothing would go on with one of them if the other wasn't there.
Then, they both grew. The star-sister and the black lioness wandered to a nearby town, pointing to places and deciding that the two of them would own a shop together. The star-sister, with her bright eyes, told the lioness sister of her plans to make the shop have cheap things and regular customers, with new stock every month. On Christmas, they would sell tiny ornaments and trees found in the woods near their home. During summer, they could seek sunscreen and umbrellas made by the two themselves. The plan was set, and there was no turning back whatsoever. Well… Until the star-sister fell in love.
He was a dashing young man, a farmer who came to work for their father. He had evergreen eyes and hair that matched the color of the ocean’s foam, not to mention he was muscular and looked prepared for anything. The star-sister’s heart fell for the man, and they both confessed their love to each other. Now, the black lioness did not trust this new farmer; each day he worked, they were missing some chickens, and even once a cow was found dead on their property! She told her sister to not marry him, to come back to the dream of their tiny little town-shop. The star-sister ignored her pleas and ran away with the man, never to be seen again.
Then, a letter turned up. The star-sister was dead, found lying in a hollow pit just outside of town. She had been clawed open, multiple teeth found lodged in her neck and stomach. Most said that she was eaten by a bear or wolf or something of that kind, but the black lioness knew who it was. And she wanted revenge. But she couldn't get it, not yet. For she was not as skilled as most in the ways of her Quirk and had to be taught by her father how to control the beast inside of her. Plus, she wasn't prepared for the outside world; the homeschool that her mother gave her was not enough. She had to go to an actual school.
Mesu chose Komei Academy because of how big and great people talked about it. Her father and mother had told her that that place was where she needed to be if she wanted to avenge her sister. They would teach her all she needed to know, and she would learn how to use her transformation Quirk for good. After showing the school what she could do and how wise she could be, she was finally accepted. Though, the idea of social interactions scared her a bit, she was ready to become a great hero. She would defeat the seafoam man. And she would be the best lioness she could be.
Quirk:Name: Lioness Rising
Classification: Transformation
Description: Lioness Rising isn't that unique of a quirk; it runs in most of her family. The Quirk involved taking all the power and anger stored up inside a person to turn their legs and arms into fur and claws. Their eyes glow a bright amber and their hair seems to grow a bit longer and wilder than usual. Human teeth are replaced with sharp fangs and a long tail with a hairy, brush-like end will appear above her bottom on her backside. Her hearing, eyesight, strength, and agility are increased to match the ferocious lioness that runs in the Amazon. She can half-way transform, which halves her heightened abilities and makes her more exhausted after the battle. After transforming back into a human, she will be overcome with a hunger for meat and exhaustion, which makes her need to sit down for a while. Her weaknesses from this Quirk are usually tiny distractions (i.e. birds, mice) that will take her off course from what she should be doing and to chase after the creature. Another weakness of hers is blood or anything relating to injuries. Even though lions and such should be accustomed to blood, it makes her nauseated and sick to her stomach, whether she wants it to or not.
Talents: • Art & Crafts - After many years of fantasizing of the shop they would have, Mesu and her sister began to learn how to knit, crochet, sew, and make works of art. They would make tiny hats for their dolls, scarves for their parents, and even fingerless gloves (they weren't that good) for each other. Mesu still wears those black gloves the star-sister made for her, in memory of why she was at Komei and what she was fighting for.
• Cooking - Give her a pot, a spoon, some ingredients and a recipe, and you've got yourself a lunch. Though she says she isn't that good at cooking and baking, she isn't half bad, and her cooking is worth a try. She used to make lunch for her sister when they were about to go on a day long adventure. She knows how to make only American, Japanese, and French food, since her parents are from France and America, and she lived in Japan her whole life.
