Sakura Liu

Name: Sakura Liu
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Race: Human
Height: 5'6
Weight: 120 pounds
Weapon: Two twin katanas.
Semblance: Sakura's semblance is very... odd. She feels no pain. This can be a positive thing, but it's drawbacks outweigh the good things. She has no idea when she's injured- the pain never transmits through. This has lead to several unfortunate accidents in the past. Her semblance serves more as a disability than as a piece of magic that is supposed to benefit her.
Personality:

• Naive
• Optimistic
• Curious
• Emotionally Fragile
• Chatty

Backstory: Sakura is from a very rich Mistral family. When her semblance awakened, her parents basically freaked out. She had come home, bone sticking out of her wrist and blood streaming down her arm- but she was smiling. She wasn't crying or screaming or passed out, like any normal five year-old would've been. In fact, she hadn't even noticed.

After that, she was never alone. If she was allowed to leave the house at all, she was accompanied by an escort. "For her own safety." they said. As she grew bigger and bigger, her parents became more and more protective with each passing day. To pass the time, she read books about heroes and knights and dragons, with their swords of course. She began to gain a fascination with weapons, and the many forms they could take. Axes, bows, arrows, greatswords, rapiers, crossbows, cutlasses, scythes, rifles, shotguns, and so many more. But her personal favorite was always twin katanas. She was drawn to the characters that wielded them, so effortlessly graceful with their beautiful swords.

After years of begging, her parents finally allowed her to learn how to wield the weapons. Sakura affectionately named hers Dream and Fantasy. For it was her dream to wield them, but she thought it was just a fantasy. As she had trained with them, she thought about what she wanted to do with them- would it be just a novelty? Or something more?

Eventually, Sakura decided that she wanted to be a Huntress. It sounded- well, very awesome to a girl who was never let out of her own home. When she turned 17, she practically got on her knees and begged her parents to let her go to Beacon. Alone. And they let her go, because they were helpless to their daughter's plees.

And now, for the first time in her life, Sakura is on her own. And she loves it.

The only unfinished CS. Haha. Tell me any thoughts you have on it so far, I'm gonna go retire.

[Starlance]

@PatrickDrummer@Starlance@Turboshitter

@canaryrose

Not really feedback or critique, but I was kind of expecting someone named Sakura to have pink hair xD

And I will absolutely not apologize for anime having conditioned me to accept that cliche.

[canaryrose]

@Turboshitter

Haha LOL! She'll have a pink color scheme though.

So, no feedback from anyone? I'm gonna put her in the Character Sheets section, then.

Wait... oh fuck. How are we going to set up partners? It doesn't always work with the name next to each other thing (as shown by Team JNPR). So, how are we going to do this?

@canaryrose

I think Alice and Lemony could be cool.

[canaryrose]

@Turboshitter

Well, I thought Iris and Sakura would be an interesting pairing.

@PatrickDrummer@Starlance

Do you guys have an opinion on this?

[PatrickDrummer]

@canaryrose

I wanna see how the pairing @Turboshitter made would work out.

[canaryrose]

OK, then! It's settled. Our twos sets of partners are Sakura/Iris, and Lemony/Alice.

[Turboshitter]

Hey guys, I just realized something. No one here has a weapon that also transforms into a gun.

*shocked gasp*

[canaryrose]

Oh my god. We don't. gasp.

I mean, Sakura's weapon transforms into a bladed baton. And, isn't Lemony's weapon also a gun? It'd be hard to make a katana a gun, anyways. Also, would you guys want a discord chat so we could communicate more effectively? And actually become friends with each other so our roleplay doesn't fall apart with the lack of communication and camaraderie. I mean, if you wanna actually be friends... I can be a little crazy sometimes.

I find that the lack of active RWBY roleplays is related to the lack of communication and camaraderie between roleplayers. That is why I suggest this.

[PatrickDrummer]

@canaryrose I'm down with whatever.

[Starlance]

A chat would certainly make things easier. As for the lack of ranged weapons, that is a challenge, therefore more interesting, no?

[canaryrose]

@Starlance

And challenges are fun. Since it seems everyone is in favor of a chat, here it is:

I'm just waiting for the first IC post.
