Nuo Aoi
Jill The Ripper
Age: 16
Year: 2nd
Sex: Female
Nationality: Sino-Japanese
Personality
Nuo's personality can be best described as a hotheaded and arrogant, yet idealistic and decently charismatic girl that suddenly takes a sharp turn into a ruthless, stoic warrior on the battlefield. Interestingly, Nuo herself has explained that she has been quite aloof for most of her life, and has recently tried to phase that out to adopt an impulsive attitude in order to get herself an outstanding image among people and have some empathy, but tends to let it go and return to her natural self in combat as she can focus better on slaughtering that way. Nuo can be often an annoyance with her boisterous attitude, and is frequently insensitive, causing people with a particularly grim past to dislike her. However, she is not without compassion, and will be glad to help people out in any way she can.
The Jill the Ripper nickname, which she used to carry on as an everyday moniker at the time when her missions were more regular, has become more of some sort of an alternate persona nowadays. When in battle, the Ripper disposes any hint of empathy and quite a good amount of emotion. She identifies people as mere allies or enemies based on her judgments beforehand, and the Ripper, true to her alias, will make any attempt to sadistically shred her enemy into pieces with brutal efficiency until very much mangled beyond recognition, disappeared beyond sight, or she herself is in danger of dying and has to flee. Beyond the aspects of battle, the Ripper is an aloof and stoic person, a reflection of Nuo before her escape from the organization. The Ripper is more of a voluntary state and a mental tool rather than a case of multiple personality disorder, however, and Nuo can opt to stop or get back in any time. Note that in petty fights, training sessions, and battles where death of the opponent is to be avoided, the alter-ego is preferably not used. While she can apply her previous knowledge in such cases, she is less effective (and more trashtalk-savvy).
Some of Nuo's notable interests include spicy food (witnesses claim she has managed to eat a ghost pepper whole while keeping her face straight and not drinking water for an hour after finishing), coffee, action films, and comics, both western and translated manga (albeit she has not yet tried out the latter's greater-known animated counterpart).
Nuo can speak Chinese and English fluently, but strangely knows only very little Japanese.
Bio
To start off, let's have an influential Chinese cartel. Then have them abduct and kidnap wealthy tourists from a cruise liner. Now after taking their belongings, the leader allows some of the higher-ranked ladies of the gang to take one for themselves and go lewd on them, killing them afterwards. 9 months later, Nuo Aoi was born.
The gang welcomed their newest addition, but treated her like shit with their efforts to use the time of her youth into making her the best of the organization. Her meals had strange additions believed to improve her strength, some of which were industrial chemicals that often made her sickly and bedridden. Every day since she turned 4, Nuo had to undergo intense and sometimes life-threatening training for half of her day. The rest were either missions, or a marathon of action movies as "image training".
Nuo's brutality was a valuable asset for the cartel, but this was lost when she escaped at the age of 12. From then on, she made a living as a freelance assassin. The money she earned from the deals were more than enough to fill her necessities as well as enroll herself in school, and while being initially ignored for her aloof nature, she eventually developed a brash attitude from the influence of the students that gave people mixed opinions about her, but nonetheless helped her fit in.
However, she still had some difficulties plaguing her then. Most notably, there were people from the gang that chased her occasionally, initially to get her back, but went all-out after the casualties became too high. So much has been sent after her that even her mother became one of her attempted assassins, only to be ripped too by the daughter that has lost all compassion towards her. These events forced Nuo to move to Japan, escaping from the presence of the organization and with the objective to find her deceased father's family.
Nuo was steered away from this objective, however, upon hearing rumors of a prestigious school for assassins.

Items
Weapons2-in-1 Polearm - Made from lightweight materials, but just as durable and effective as steel. The pole can be collapsed and the blade folded to transform it into a sword. The reverse of this, the transformation into a lance where the pole extends and the blade unfolds, can also be a useful thrust attack.
EquipmentVitamins - Daily necessities.
Phone - Because why not?
Purse - Contract money.
Skills
Agility - In both footing and attack. Nuo's speed of strikes allows her to mangle her enemies faster.
Calm - The Ripper does not let any emotion or pressure get in the way of accomplishing her objective to kill.
Endurance and Resilience - Nuo's exposure to multiple life-threatening injuries and poisons have rendered her numb to pain as the Ripper, but this may cause her to lose track of the damage inflicted on her. Nuo also takes long to get exhausted, whether as herself or as the Ripper.
No Sleep - It is rumored among people that Nuo has transcended beyond the need for sleep, and of course she can stay awake without feeling drowsy for over 28 hours straight, even without coffee.
