Emiko Asahina (WIP)

██ █ - - 「 PERSONALITY ♥ 」
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

SOUND OF VOICE
An
eternal lullaby, sung in a soft soprano voice; a voice that could carry
through winds and wars. Each word is a practiced art, sweet and soft
but with short, precise notes. Carefully formed upon cherry pink lips,
filling the empty air with sweet sound. The gentle melody of such a
lilting tune is completely smooth at the end of every syllable,
lingering on with its mysterious echo.

INTROVERT/EXTROVERT
Being 50 percent extrovert, and 50 percent introvert. The correct term to describe this would be ambivert. You see, while enjoying a reasonable sum of her free time going to parties, and hanging out with friends. The most typical extrovert behavior one could possibly show.
Emiko does not deem it essential to engage in social interaction
constantly. Due to that busy body persona, she acts rather aloof and
introverted as well. Relishing time alone, away from the crowd. More
particularly when faced with work.

ON THE INSIDE
A
pretty face could fool so many. But for those who have met our darling
Emiko consider her to be a very lively, and interesting woman; with an
almost ethereal presence, she carries herself with undisputed grace and
poise. Slightly independent to say the least, Emiko is defiantly on her
own page. Assure of herself and confident she doesn't need anyone else's
help, she isn't rude but does have some attitude, being a woman after
all- most things are better done her way. With a quiet but present aura
about her the effect she has on others is sometimes amusing. Emiko isn't
one to spread rumors or gossip, she is loyal and true to her word. For
example, she doesn't tell if a certain someone likes another someone, or
if a person was to cheat on their significant other. She feels that
it's up to the person who did whatever they did to tell the people they
should tell. Genuinely nice to be around the woman is mannered and does
know the proper way to behave. Sometimes she slips into the role of
“over-protective mother”, and protects those she cares about from any
threats, and will always be the shoulder to cry on. Saying this, she
would probably do anything for anyone even a complete stranger, even
though she has been wronged a time too many in the past.

She has a
very soft and gentle way of talking that is extremely polite and
modest. Even when she is trying to run away, she is kind and sweet to
whoever she is brushing off. Emiko does however have a habit of telling
the truth. It's not in her personality to lie, ever. She's completely
honest, whether it be with herself or with the people around her.
Truthfully, she's a horrible liar anyway, as whenever she does, she
freezes up and can't think of anything to say. But, she does feel that
there is a difference between lying, protecting something, and hiding
the truth. And this doesn't always make things comfortable. With a
unique vibe about her she isn't super special, but she can fend for
herself with ease. Around others she is usually sociable and kind,
giving no reason for anyone to hate her. Emiko isn't a fan of conflict
and drama, leaving violence to her last resort and would much rather
calmly sit down, and talk about it. It's been stated that she's quite
the diplomatic, and the type that resolves fights rather than
participate in them. With a strong sense of justice, and if necessary,
she will always do the utmost to defend her point of view. But that
doesn't mean she's not flexible. She also doesn't like people being mad
at her either. And if someone is angry at her, she'll usually try as
hard as she can to fix it.

Of course, this Quincy isn't
perfect, and there are people in the world that she doesn't like, where
she won't care if they dislike her. But even around these people, she
doesn't like starting a fight, and regardless if they want to start a
fight or not, Emiko won't continue. She'll talk in a calm, relaxed
voice, unless they push her to a point where she does feel the need to
yell, which is rare, but does happen every once in a while. Her temper
is indeed almost non-existent, and even when it does flare its not a
huge explosion like some others seem to let off. True to herself she
tries hard to be, and being true to others comes easier. One thing that
is certain about her is that, no matter what Emiko is put through, she
is passionate, hard working, and very diligent. She gives everything she
does one-hundred percent, and doesn't give up easily. She's extremely
determined to finish whatever she starts, and never wastes time as she
has a very strong work ethic. She is a woman who takes things in stride,
looking ahead and not back she adapts and learns well. Although
sometimes, she doesn't always learn so well.

While no being can
seem to do anything wrong in her presence Emiko manages to scold herself
constantly, sometimes out loud and in third person. Now, for being
quite tough on the outside, most would assume that Emiko is not afraid
of anything due to the fact she can manage the coldest of stares. Though
above all she is terrified of storms. Thunder and lightening send her
into a frenzy, and she just flees and will run till the storm ends or
she finds cover far away. The rain does make her nervous from time to
time, and being near large bodies of water that are rough have their
effect too. While our maiden fears storms, she seems to also have a
sleeping problem, and has very vivid dreams that usually wake her. For
long hours she is awake at night just trying to think of something else
other than her nightmares. From that, there is nothing else bad to
mention about her. Well apart from her love for alcohol, then not really
anything.

As you've probably assumed after that, yes, Emiko
happens to be a raging alcoholic, well, not raging. But she likes to
lose herself in the sake. Once she's had enough, her personality morphs
instantly, not gently breaking down to give a warning to those around
her. Ah, you see, our fine lady in the black dress is very dominant with
drink in her; whatever she wants, whatever she needs, she'll take it,
even forcefully if needed. And this is one of her many qualities that
contradict each other. At times, she's seriously on edge. Constantly
keeping everything to herself, and that leads to too much bottling up on
her behalf.

██ █ - - 「 LIKES ♥ 」
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

READING
Yes,
reading. The types of books she generally likes involves politics and
news updates, like the newspaper for example. Sometimes she even enjoys
romance stories, and fiction. Almost anything and everything if she can
get her hands on it. The only things that she doesn't read often are
boring books. Saying that, her definition of boring may vary from the
average reader. When Emiko truly desires, she often likes to read some
mature rated books, and takes no shame in it either. After all, she's a
woman, and should be allowed to indulge in her mind's curiosity once in a
while, correct?

PERFECTION
Being
a perfectionist, everything is best when it is at a level of
perfection. With that said, she is not the kind of perfectionist that
will obsess over nearly anything with a flaw to it. Such like other
beings. And this is what makes everything inside her contradict each
other, and not fit together so perfectly, like a puzzle: Emiko likes it
when things are flawed, so to say, as it adds a more unique charm. Yet,
at the same time, she likes everything to be perfect. For example, when
she is cooking. If Emiko fails more than once, she will try and try
until she finds her work to be satisfying enough, and this is the same
dedication that can also be shown about her whilst working.

AMUSEMENT
Who
doesn't like amusement? Emiko likes it really good, and in large
quantities. It's certain, she finds her job amusing enough, even if it
isn't in the best of ways, she won't turn a blind eye to the odd joke or
two. There is nothing wrong with being wicked in the name of humor.
That is unless someone is harmed in the end. If it reaches a point like
so, Emiko does take it all to heart, and will feel equally at blame and
force herself to do something about the situation.

ALCOHOL
Being
an alcoholic, one would most likely expect this from one much like
herself. While she has been branded “party girl”, upon many others, this
is not the reason while she'll drink her sorrows away. Emiko is a very
complex drinker, she's not out to impress people whenever she tips the
bottle. No. It's the exact opposite, unless, obviously she is just
intending to have a good time. But drinking herself to sleep is the only
comfort she may ever possibly find, due to all those hidden secrets she
doesn't wish to reveal.

TRADITIONAL DISHES
Either,
cooking, preparing, or eating them. It is one thing that her adoptive
mother taught her of. Due to many years in the Rukongai, she found it
essential to learn about the arts of food at a young age to be able to
take care of her family, just as they took care of her. While she
doesn't think of herself to be of a professional level at cooking, many
people beg to differ. Food to her is very interesting, often
experimenting with spices to add on certain dishes. It is one thing the
Quincy does in the comfort of her own free time, as it helps
replenish her energy.

██ █ - - 「 DISLIKES ♥ 」
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

SHOUTING
She
hates the noise, very much. Except if it is being produced from her own
mouth, it's a good exception. And it's blatantly obvious she isn't the
sort of woman to scream needlessly, and without cause. Emiko hates the
noise very much, especially when she is around crowded areas. Which is
why, when given the option, she'll prefer to sit in more quiet places.

VIOLENCE
There
is disliking something, then there is hating something down to the
bottom of it's core. This woman isn't foolish enough to convince herself
that fighting isn't part of day-to-day life in the times she currently
lives in. She doesn't make it her personal goal to make everything
peaceful, but she does wish that sometimes people wouldn't lift their
blades to speak the words they're not bold, or intelligent enough to
say. And she's learned that from past mistakes. Harm doesn't
particularly bother her when it's directed at herself, but to her
allies. Leave a wound or scratch on their skin, and end up having
something twisted on your body. That is how serious she is with her
enemies, and those who dared hurt those she cares for.

OTHER WOMEN
Don't
her her wrong. Emiko isn't catty enough to hate everything with a
vagina. Even saying she dislikes other women is going a step too far.
This general dislike, is directed at typically younger women. They gave
her the upview that girls who are younger than herself weren't that
matured, and often targeted her out. It wouldn't be lying to say that
she is a woman with looks that most other females desire. And to top it
all off, she's got the fitting personality with a goddess-like aura.
This just strokes at the innermost jealousy of the same sex. Because
Emiko is of a kind nature, targeting her out and giving her the cold
shoulder works quite well. Which means, she is hesitant around most of
her gender, and finds herself to be at the highest point of paranoia at
most times. Though, when she has encountered someone that she can
genuinely trust, and won't stab her back. She'll open up, and allow
herself to get along with them.



LATE NIGHTS
This
woman is prone to sleeping in the day, rather than in the night. For
she stays up drinking until the sun is up again before calming down and
getting some rest. Usually she wakes up around late hours if she falls
completely into a deep sleep, but she is assertive and very active when
she hears certain ruckus around. This is with all good reason, (and
explained in more depth in her personality). Emiko suffers from vivid
nightmares of her time in the Rukongai, and sleeping is never peaceful
through the night. Personally, she believes that the darkness and
silence of the night just adds to the intensity of these visions.

██ █ - - 「 APPEARANCE ♥ 」
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

HEIGHT
5'8" — 172.5cm.

WEIGHT
125lbs — 57kg.

DEFINING CHARACTERISTICS
Despite
the luminous pink tresses that surround her features, there are other
unique traits that truly define this masterpiece. She has elegant and
beautiful features, and pale, flawless skin. From the back, there are a
mass of individual scars scattered across the bare skin. There is
nothing outstandingly amazing about them, but they are interestingly
unusual; the way they twist and turn, and form into each other, it could
certainly make one curious of how she obtained such markings. Another
trait could be located on the left side of her face. Tucked away under a
mass of hair, at the corner of her eye. A cute beauty spot, flat, but
just colored, which somehow enhances her beauty.

BODY FRAME
Not
too skinny, nor too plump; she's of a healthy weight which is expressed
with many curves. Her stomach is toned and fit. An immodest bust,
slight waist, and enough hip to balance out her body evenly. She's not
tall nor short, but rather average at a height of somewhere around 5'8"
and surprisingly graceful for her curved appearance.

BLOOD TYPE
AB negative.

ON THE OUTSIDE
Standing
at an non-intimidating height of roughly 172.5cm, 5'8" she isn't able
to tower over those around her. Emiko is the ideal weight for someone of
her height, build, and appearing age. Being formed much like an
hourglass, her curvaceous figure is surely something to admire. Though
she has a fit, well kept body - like all Quincy. Each of her limbs
are long and slender, yet toned, and in proportion, complementing the
rest of her structure; with just enough muscle, and no excess body fat,
to give her that strong appearance. But to say in more detail, we'll
start from the top. Emiko, in truth, is quite attached to her hair and
always makes sure it’s in its best condition, and it always seems to
have a bright flare. Long, so long, naturally cascading locks gently
toss around, reaching down to just a little below her waist, gradually
twisting into ringlets as they near the ends. However, her beautifully
well-kept locks are often tossed just right over her bosom, which of
course tends to make her hair seem shorter. Topped off with messy bangs
frame her heart-shaped face perfectly, working like a veil and hiding
her eyes if not fixed accordingly. With the flawless complexion like
that of a fair porcelain doll, due to her inability to part from her
work, and to go outdoors. The only flaw to her skin, is that of
scarring. Proportioned to take up the majority of her back, these scars
twist and turn. Digging in so deep that to run your finger over each
individual marking you'd be convinced momentarily that they were still
fresh as the day she obtained them.

With a very soft, innocent
looking face, definitely not that of a fighter. She has a well detailed
facial structure, and everything is well balanced. Her lips are full,
and soft to the touch. They are rarely ever pulled back in a frown, but
mostly plastered with a smile. And the most alluring feature on her
face, most definitely, has to be her eyes. With luscious colored lashes
of a moderate length, peer out bright cerulean blue eyes, that shimmer
and glow with the effects of the soothing ocean. Emiko's eyes are always
wide, or seductively half-lidded, attempting to lure people into them.
Which at no surprise, often works. Makeup doesn't interest her, but she
will tend to wear mascara from time to time. Which always makes her eyes
look more lovely. They have a curious sparkle with condescending
amusement but also can quickly change to mysterious in depth, round and
wide, Emiko’s eyes contrast quite nicely with her brightly colored hair,
for that added effect. Coming a little lower, as mentioning her
proportions before. It would be honest to say that she is a well-formed
woman, if not developed. All proof to the saying can be clearly
demonstrated by her chest region. With a nice shape to them, her breasts
are ample, rounded, and yet firm and at a noteworthy size of “big”, but
not so much to un-flatter her figure. Her waist dips in to retain their
slender look to them, before connecting to her wide hips, twisting
round with an supple ass and finishing with thick thighs.

Don't
get her wrong, she respects herself more than others would believe; but
her style of clothing ranges in the more tight and revealing section.
Whilst she feels confident, and proud enough to casually walk around in
such clothing, she does not do it intentionally for the attention.
Restrictions are something that this woman cannot stand, and without
these limitations she is able to move about more freely. Her basic
attire consists of the same, or similar-like outfits, still striking out
as the basic apparel of a Quincy. On a day-to-day basis, she will
wear a white tube top, covered up by a black short-sleeved jacket, made
from a leather material. Her jacket has white trimmings on each side of
the zipper, and also along the bottom. A black skirt, trimmed exactly
the way as the jacket is her main lower body item. Underneath that skirt
is black leggings, met up with a pair of black boots reaching much
further up her legs, rimmed with white - stopping only a few centimeters
past her knees. This simplistic design is adorned with a deliberately
loose white sash around her waist, fitted with a mandatory lieutenants
badge, sporting the appropriate squad emblem.

██ █ - - 「 HISTORY ♥ 」
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

THE BEGINNING — IN LIFE & DEATH

Born
in the most traditional parts of Japan, she was the daughter of a
tradesman and tailoress. To say, there isn't much to know about this
girl; other than it was certain, at the beginning of her life, it was
set out there and then that she wouldn't have it easy. While they both
wished to raise her in a comfortable lifestyle, what she endured
couldn't have been more different to the peaceful life she leads
nowadays. It was all on a miserably hot Summer afternoon when Asahina
Emiko (though known as Suzuki Kanon during her living years) had taken
her first breath in the world, thanks to her loving parents. Unlike most
children. She did not cry, rather she just gazed blankly up at her
parents through big, blue eyes. Sure, she was a little different, but
they never treated her differently because of this. They never abused
her, never had a scolding that went too far, and she was never
neglected. You could say, she had the ideal parents. When trades went
bad for father, he had to work South for a while. Leaving Emiko and her
Mother to tend to themselves during this period of time. And only a week
after his departure, there were sudden changes in their daughter. Her
reduction in appetite was the first thing to be noticed, followed by her
lack of motivation and energy to do the simplest of trivial tasks.
Also, do not forget that in these times, their medical abilities weren't
as flawless as they are nowadays.

As the family doctor's
diagnosis said upon inspection, there was absolutely nothing wrong with
the girl. And led her Mother to take into consideration that the
possibility of her innocent daughter faking these problems, was not
entirely out of the question. She was also convinced it started because
of her father. But just like any child would, she missed her father. It
had been almost six months since she had last seen him; but even out of
desperation, she wouldn't stoop so low in an attempt to get him back
anytime soon. News did eventually reach them that he would return in the
next week, yet Emiko's condition only appeared to be getting worse with
each passing day. Even with his return, she still refused to give up
the act, or that was what they said. What the doctors had manipulated
her mother into believing, she passed these beliefs onto her husband. So
they refused to seek her medical attention, as it would be a waste of
their time and money. And then out of the blue, she started coughing and
coughing. Even to the point where she couldn't catch her breath. Nobody
believed her at first. It was like some twisted plot of “The Boy who
Cried Wolf”, only without all the lies. When they discovered this wasn't
all an act just to receive attention, they ran to her side and held her
tightly in their arms.

For quite a lengthened period of time,
she had to deal with the agony her body was strained under each day, due
to her illnesses. So now she lay, a child of barely ten and knocking on
death's door. And at the very bottom of it, this was all the fault of a
tumor. But they weren't aware of this, and wouldn't be for surely
another century or so to come. So the only logical explanation for this
was that; this happened because of an accident during her childhood.
Emiko had developed what they like to call in the modern world,
selective memory loss -- it was a rare side affect due to a head injury
she supposedly received -- and a form of amnesia. This is what caused
her panic attack, supposedly, she had completely forgotten how to
breathe for a while and her body acted on instinct. Nobody would doubt
this, it was just as good a reason as any for the moment. One night,
when she was supposed to be sleeping. Her pale, glazed over eyes stared
hazily up at the ceiling. That's when she heard it. An argument between
her parents, deciding how they should continue to fight for her
survival, or give up on her there and then.

Emiko never seemed to
be getting any better. Only worse, so it seemed. Everything in her life
was blank, no happy memories, no sad memories, nothing to define what
was right or wrong. All she had now was instinct. Often people worried
about her. About her health. About her future. They often suggested to
her parents that perhaps she would be better off elsewhere. Not the
country life, where if medical attention was needed, it would not be
scarce. By the age of fourteen, her parents had finally listened to what
those around them said. They sent her away, to live with her uncle; a
nobleman who owned a Ryokan (Japanese Inn), in a more rural part of the
city. Emiko could never have that wonderful life again. Not that it
really mattered, or even upset her, she didn't remember any of it. The
Ryokan she now inhabited was a nice place, with nice people, it made a
change of scenery and made an immediate improvement on her health over
the next two years. But she was still in no condition to return to her
parents, not that she would've left willingly.

It was a pampered
style of living. Everything came easily, but well deserved. Rewarded for
all the things she did right, and scolded for all the things she did
wrong. It molded, and shaped her into a fine woman. One that respected
others as well as herself. It was exactly what her uncle desired. You
see, there was one condition in which she would be allowed to live this
life of luxury, one she had not been aware of when she first arrived
here; that was understandable though, considering she was still a little
too young to understand anything of the sort. Now that is just
pointless rambling. While he uncle understood that Emiko was not his
child, he still cared for her like she was his very own daughter. And he
would have her educated in the way of becoming a proper, modest, and
reasonable host, much like himself. He wanted her to be his successor,
the one who would inherit the very Ryokan that she called her home.

Before she was capable of going through such events; she would first have to get over the sickness which corroded her body since birth. She did so with the medicine of the owner of the Ryokan. He happened to be a practitioner of medicine. He was not the type to do something for free though; so in return he had Emiko swear a Vow to serve the Quincy order as a Quincy herself.
