Yeah, I had a feeling the idea of the four girls playing the frisbee might've been wrong, but I was in a rush and didn't have the time to try and ascertain that it was wrong. I've just fixed it now though, so hopefully it's all good.
Gushiken Torami had been walking around the city for quite some time, as part of her usual evening stroll. She'd been keeping an eye out for anything strange this whole time, but ever since that one anomaly where one of the monsters had been attacking the local mall and tore it asunder, everything had just been... normal. Too normal, even. It was enough for Torami to doubt what she saw was real.
Torami sat down on park bench where she remembered her father finding her on. A group of four girls were the first ones Torami had her eyes on. They certainly chose an odd time to have a picnic, but that wasn't something she'd personally consider interesting enough to keep watching. She did pay enough attention to notice they were all looking in one general direction, and shifted her attention accordingly. That plastic disc-like object that some young men were throwing around as part of a game struck a peculiar chord of fascination. Torami found herself entranced, as though she could watch the game for hours.
...
Then all of a sudden, it happened. A monster had burst out of the ground under one of the players' feet. Everyone had scampered in all directions as would be expected, and that was enough to keep casualties to a minimum at the very least since the monster could only target one person at a time. However, one of the original four girls that Torami was watching had been completely paralyzed in fear from the sight of the attacking monster, and the picnic basket and that "disc" still lied on the ground where the monster could easily trample on them, intentionally or otherwise. Without a second's hesitation, Torami raced to grab both of those things, and immediately caught up to the girl whose friends had inadvertently left her behind.
"Excuse me!" Torami called out, carrying the disc-like object on top of the closed basket, "Are any of these items yours?"
While Torami's clothes had transformed in preparation to combat the monster, she had yet to realize that that was what she was meant to do.
Torami is actually a rather short individual, only standing at 150cm (4' 11"). Thankfully she's at a healthy enough weight of 42kg, and has a modest BWH ratio of 18-16-18 if measured in inches and 46-41-46 if measured in centimeters. The strangest notes on Torami's appearance would be hairstyle and her eyes. The front leftmost portion of her hair is black while the rest of it is white, with random streaks of red throughout. It's this black part of her hair that Torami ties into a ponytail, which she sets off to one side. As for her eyes, her left is a vibrant blood red that seems to be full of life, while her right seems to be clouded over and grey. Torami carries her grey umbrella around everywhere she goes, and has it open to keep the sun's UV rays off of her since otherwise her pale skin will burn easily.
Personality:
Considering she hails from a noble family, it makes sense that Torami was taught to be considerate to those that were deemed "less fortunate". She is kind, caring and respectful, she doesn't ask for much and she could make friends with just about anyone. Torami doesn't often judge the actions that others take, and even if she would, she typically keeps it to herself more often than not. She's everything a parent could hope for in a child, which makes her own parents very proud of her indeed.
However, while she doesn't like to think of all this as one big colossal facade, it should be noted that Torami does in fact have a sadistic side to her. She'll try to reserve it for the battles against the monsters that come into this world and try to ruin everyone's fun, and keep it under wraps until then. But if someone does push one too many of her buttons and wears her patience thin, she'll do a complete 180 on that one person in particular, and will be hard-pressed to forgive them... assuming she even decides to at all...
History:
Gushiken Tomari was the only daughter of a rather young noble couple. She was well behaved and always obedient. She wasn't spoiled rotten, but was given enough toys to keep her company. And she always got the best care that her parents could give her. They even went so far as to hire private tutors to teach her in her own home. The reason Torami's parents never enrolled her into a school is because they were concerned that she'd be made fun of for her strange eyes and eccentric hairstyle. It was also the reason they never took her outside anywhere specific. Torami didn't seem to mind being cooped up in the house all day, but a part of her always wondered what it'd be like to go outside and befriend someone around her age. It was a lingering thought.
Occasionally, Torami would accompany either one of her parents later in her teenage years, whenever they'd go out shopping for groceries. On other occasions, she would go to the mall purchase clothing, video games and other things. One fateful day, however, Torami walked to the mall on a somewhat humid day when she saw that a monster had materialized and was wreaking havoc, attacking civilians and destroying everything in its path. Torami was horrified at the sight, and instinctively turned tail and ran, only to faint and collapse about a few feet away from the disaster. Torami's father later found her lying on a park bench, and shook her awake to try and ascertain that she was OK. She told him everything that she saw and tried to show him the damage that the monster had caused, only to see that it had somehow been undone in its entirety. Out of concern, Torami's father had taken her to the closest clinic that he could find, and asked if someone could see to her right away. The whole thing was explained away as a hallucination caused by a sudden heat stroke Torami must've suffered from, but Torami herself still felt that something didn't add up. In any case, life went on as usual, and Torami had to put that incident out of her mind and move. The last thing she needed was to feel as though she was going insane.
Combat Information
Ability Basis:
Starlight
Magical State Breakdown:
Torami's strength, endurance and agility are improved even more than usual while the stars are out in the night sky. The stars also seem to grant Torami a form of constant regeneration while she's in her magical state. Her dress gains armor upon transformation, and her umbrella turns to a giant mace that hits as hard as a sledgehammer.
List of Techniques:
Star Grenade: Torami forms a ball of starlight in the palm of her hand and throws it at the monster. It explodes as soon as it hits something.
Luminous Eye: Torami's right eye starts to glow as her body gathers starlight from the night sky. Once it glows at its brightest, Torami is ready to unleash all that gathered starlight at the monster as a beam of energy.
Meteor Shower Storm: At Torami's request, an array of shooting stars descend all the way down to Earth, cascading down on the monster as a constant barrage.
Radiance of the Constellations: Aligning the stars in the sky to form a constellation, Torami summons a ray of starlight that envelopes her entire body and expels outwards. This is technically able to heal the entire party but, since Torami's body seems to be at the epicenter, allies that are further away from Torami recieve less healing.

Aight, cool. Looks like my concept for a magical girl still works perfectly fine, then :]
I was gonna have one be much stronger at night than she is during the day due to starlight being the basis of her power. Figured it'd be an interesting concept to go for.
There's something I've been wondering about for a while now. Is there a set hour of the day, day in the month etc. that the monsters typically "summon" themselves, or do they just appear whenever they feel like fucking shit up (if you'll excuse my French)?
