Yuuka Kazami

[PepsiYuuka]

NPC List

i swear to god at least two of these will be used soon

Elly
[spoiler]

Full Name: Elly
Nicknames: Yuuka often refers to her in possessive- "My Elly."
Gender: Female
Species: Youkai [???]
Age: "Between three hundred and four hundred."

Visual Age: Her mid to late twenties, somewhere between 26-29.
Height: 5'3"
Weight: ~120 lbs
Build: Lighter and more delicate than Yuuka's, though not far from human average.
Hair: Blonde and curly.
Eyes: Golden.
Distinctive Features: Her scythe is never more than about 20 feet from her at all times.
Clothes: Typically, Yuuka dresses her as she sees fit- though she is spared the flashy tastes of the flower youkai, and often goes for more muted shades and simpler cuts of dress. Her hat is pretty unneeded, but Yuuka probably told her it was cute on her once and she wears it anyway.

Canon: Touhou [Lotus Land Story]
NPC Type: Secondary
Alignment: Neutral
Occupation: Gatekeeper/Domestic Servant [Mugenkan's]
Location of Activity: Camelot, generally around Mugenkan but she does errands elsewhere too.



Notable Abilities: She has Basic Telekinesis and the required proficiencies. (Ranged, Remote Control, Ranged Materialize) [Her stats are low, though- 1/2/1/1.] In addition, she doesn't need to breathe, and can survive for weeks at a time underwater completely unphased. Of course, doesn't protect her from attacks. She also doesn't eat much, though she does need to eat sometimes. [Can't help Yuuka in a fight until I buy her AS an Assist, though- and those two proficiencies too lol.]

Weapon: Scythe [300 OM, Requires Telekinesis (Ranged, Ranged Materialize, Remote Control)] [http://omniverse-rpg.com/showthread.php?...#pid115188][Approval][/url]

Because throwing swords is so last Tuesday.

Elly quite literally uses her Scythe as a boomerang in function. Throws it (her range is pretty good considering what the hell it is she's throwing- about 20 feet) in the general direction of an opponent, and pulls it back to herself using Telekinesis. She seems very practiced at it, and rarely messes up the catching phase even if she must drop everything to focus on recalling the weapon- but the throw sure isn't very accurate. It's meant more to corral opponents into going a specific direction than hitting them itself. And it is pretty intimidating to see a four-foot bladed object thrown your way at nearly twenty miles an hour.

Notably her scythe is bent and unwieldy at close range, and cannot be used as a melee weapon. She's gonna have to throw it if she wants to use it to any good effect. The scythe itself is supernaturally sturdy and almost impossible to break without a lot of effort. (In a phrase, it shares her defense stat.) Destroying it would also kill her instantly as her soul is inside it, so y'know. Bit important it doesn't break completely. Though her telekinesis itself is surprisingly not as physically draining as one would think, (it drains more on her concentration and mental state than physical stamina- repeated uses making her more likely to fumble intricate actions and overuse giving her migraines or tremors) her lack of real exercise winds her when actually throwing and catching the heavy metal object, and if she's not careful, she can lose her balance while doing so, especially if taking an attack at the same time.



Personality: Elly is good-natured and optimistic, and perhaps a bit too friendly for her job as a gatekeeper. She's very patient by nature- capable of spending months at a time doing the exact same thing day to day, almost robotically. She isn't terribly intelligent or strong, but she has a lot of dedication and is generally pretty pleasant to be around. To be honest she's a little clumsy, and is easily upset by her own mistakes. There isn't an ounce of self worth in her body- she's replaced it with loyalty. Elly sees herself as less of a person and as more of an extension of her master's will. It's far from a healthy mental state, but it seems she's been like this for as long as she can remember. Still, though she lives to serve and tends to go along with things passively, that doesn't mean she's unpleasant or even morose. She thinks and feels just like everyone else.

History: It's a secret. And by that I mean I'll type it up later. tl;dr she's a youkai that yuuka has sort of appropriated for her own use.[/spoiler]

Yuriko
[spoiler]

Full Name: Yuriko Ito
Nicknames: "Yurk" by me OOC mostly.
Gender: Female
Species: Human/"Anathema" [Night Caste Solar Exalted]
Age: Seventeen

Height: 4'11"
Weight: ~90 lbs
Build: Scrawny and sinewy- with no curves to speak of. A poor diet has stunted her growth. There is little fat on her body, all skin, bone, and muscle.
Hair: Silvery-white, silky, and usually pulled into pigtails or a ponytail.
Eyes: Pale blue, with a slightly purple undertone.
Distinctive Features: Her back is branded with the iconography of her former slavemaster. In addition, when deep in concentration or fervor, her Caste Mark- a glowing, silvery-lavender circle outline- appears on her forehead. When thoroughly engaged the light from this gets brighter and surrounds her in a rain of glowing "petals" of light. Like a Super Saiyan basically. (There are no effects from this other than visual.) She can suppress this involuntary effect by calming her mind, though.
Clothes: Yuriko's clothes have seen better days. Most don't fit her- they are hand me downs from the older slaves. Her shoes are almost all worn through in the soles. The iron collar around her neck is not for show- the heavy piece of equipment was intended to prevent her from escaping, though the chain has been twisted apart now. The only piece which she truly calls her own is the dark-colored hooded cloak she wears on her shoulders, the inside full of over a dozen pockets- each filled with knives of various calibers.

Canon: Original [PC in Exalted]
NPC Type: Secondary
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Occupation: Bounty Hunter/Street Rat/Former Slave
Location of Activity: From Darkshire- but is a wanderer, as she is homeless. Can be found anywhere there's bounties to be had.



Notable Abilities: Very talented in combat, for a secondary- she'd probably rival a first level prime. She has Stealth, Suppression, Physical Strength and Ranged Proficiencies, and tons of knives to use them with. [Her stat build would be 2/1/3/4.]

Weapon: Knives [600 OM, Requires Physical Strength, Ranged Proficiency] [Approval]

Yuriko makes it a habit to carry no less than fifty on her at all times, of varying types. You never know what you'll need them for, of course.

They're good for all the things one could possibly imagine them as being good for. Stabbing people. Slitting throats. She's even trained to throw them- though her effective range with them is only about thirty feet, her typical overhand throw isn't blindingly fast or anything, and it's not easy to aim them without concentration. In the end they're just knives- no magic or anything. More ammunition than anything.

She can wield one in each hand in hand-to-hand combat, but her throw is better with her right. So she only throws one knife at a time. It takes her two seconds or so to retrieve a new knife from her cloak after she throws one, leaving her with just the handheld knife in her left hand for that duration. Usually she'll use this time to close distance in order to strike hand-to-hand or flee if she needs to.



Personality: Yuriko is afraid of her own emotions. She sees feeling as a weakness- and she hates that about herself. In her life, she seeks to do all things logically. When she feels things, she has learned it only results in her own pain- so she tries to lock up those feelings, those bonds with others, all of her caring and her sadness up inside of her, fearing that they are what will make her fall. The Solar Exalted of old fell prey to themselves before they fell to enemies, and she fears this will be her fate, too. Still, at her weakest, she'll let slip the cracks in her steely serious facade- she cares deeply for the innocent, and for their protection. Though detached, she will offer at times words of encouragement to the weak. Her most fundamental belief is that authority must be challenged, as it is inherently corrupt- and that all should look out for themselves.

History: Born on the streets, Yuriko was raised from childhood by a high-class businessman as his personal assassin. She was to take out the competition, any competition- to keep things profitable for her owner. Just keep the fall away from him. Just do as he said and be grateful for the food and roof over your head. Her memory is fuzzy as to when she stopped- she killed him- but she remembers the swirling storm of emotions around her, of pain, of anger, of sorrow. She remembers those feelings in each of the knives she threw, in each of her strikes to the neck. And they scared her. Since then she has been lost- doing any odd job to keep herself alive. Even now that she's in the Omniverse, she does the same- with no skills to market but her blades, her employment opportunities are limited.

Notes: Yuriko literally doesn't have anything to do with Yuuka. The two are probably never gonna interact, even- so I'm being a little lenient with her abilities just because... She's built entirely for something else. Don't ever let me claim her actions for Recognition on Yuuka because that would be totally stupid.

Renko
[spoiler]
img source

Full Name: Renko Usami
Nicknames: Typically just "Renko."
Gender: Female
Species: Human
Age: Twenty One

Height: 5'7"
Weight: ~130 lbs
Build: Renko has a fairly androgynous build, not seeming to favor curves or putting on weight in any one area. She is not muscular at all, but not skinny either.
Hair: Dark brown (nearly black) and fairly straight, cut rather simply straight-across at the shoulders and sometimes tied up on one side with a ribbon.
Eyes: Rusty brown, though in some lights, they may appear more reddish- especially when she's using her ability.
Distinctive Features: Hat.
Clothes: Renko tends to dress in simple colors, black and white- occasionally throwing in an accessory in red. Usually she sports a white men's shirt and a long black skirt, but she'll wear a white blouse on occassion. If the occassion is formal, she'll add a tie or a bow tie. If it's cold, she'll put on a black capelet.

Canon: Touhou Project (ZUN's Music CDs)
NPC Type: Secondary
Alignment: Neutral Good
Occupation: Theoretical Physicist and Occult-lover
Location of Activity: She lives in T2 of Coruscant, but that doesn't stop her from exploring wherever seems to have interesting rumors about.

Notable Abilities: She has no abilities suited for combat- however, she CAN tell the exact time, to the second, by looking at the stars. Only in JST though, not in the actual time in the 'verse she's in. This is as useless as it sounds (and something most primes can do anyway) and she's still always the one running late for things. If the Omniverse had a moon, she'd be able to tell the exact location down to the GPS coordinates too- but it doesn't. Haha.

Personality: "All is based fundamentally on that which we cannot prove."

Renko is more familiar with this concept than one would expect of a woman her age. As physics becomes solved to a smaller and smaller level, the fact is there are things that need to simply be assumed, and not proved. The logical side of her mind doesn't like this. She sees the world in questions and answers, thinks all mysteries need solving- sometimes unable to appreciate things for what they are without wanting to explore them. It's a trait common in her family.

Still, she is good natured. She retains some sort of innocence to her- she wants to see the best in people. To an extent this is because she wants to know why they are how they are too, but it's not as pronounced. Even those most would find strange or out there Renko simply finds interesting enigmas- people she wants to understand. This is part of the reason she was so close to Maribel, of course.

Impatient is also another part of that innocence. At times, despite her logical nature, Renko's enthusiasm to learn will get the better of her. She will be sidetracked by any little thing even on the way to meetings (she isn't very punctual despite her ability), or she'll become overly focused on attaining the impossible just because she wants to know if it is possible. Often she needs someone more sensible to hold her back if she wants to achieve any reasonable results, lest she go off on an unrelated tangent.

History: Renko formerly lived in a future not too far away from the current world. Raised in Tokyo for most of her childhood, she ended up attending university in Kyoto researching String Theory. Notably, Physics in her world followed something called the "Grand Unified Theory," which had been created to merge all the forces together into one concise explanation. However, as time went on, it was found that human ability to study things like physics was dwindling- as the amount of energy needed for observation grew exponentially, so did costs, and eventually it would take the weight of the world or more energy in the universe for a single test.

It was a dead-end field, even if Renko was a natural genius. Though perhaps that was her pessimism settling in.

But at least there was something to keep her going.

Renko's love of the occult started when she was relatively young. It ran in her family to be attracted to it, as she would later learn- though perhaps her more reasonable, detached nature prevented her from falling into the cycle of her ancestors. But still, she had always liked it, and even in her adolescence was interested in things like ghost hunting and power spots. A bit of a weird hobby for a physicist, but what can you do.

In college she met Maribel Hearn- a psychology major who had similar occult-based interests. Together, the two of them made up the Secret Sealing Club. It was called a club for mediums and necromancers, though really they were more into exposing alternate planes of reality. It made the days go by quicker, certainly- though Renko was always becoming more and more aware that it was far more real to her friend than her.

She actually doesn't remember the exact events that transpired before she was brought to the Omniverse, she just kind of remembers waking up here one morning. But she's been surviving as a secondary relatively fine. Thankfully physics here are weird enough they're actually worth studying... Sort of.

Well, you can't say she's never gotten to experience magic anymore.

Notes: if renko heard about gensokyo residents existing here she'd literally nut[/spoiler]
