Name: Akiko
Nicknames: Aki
Age: 15
Race: human (English)
Height: 5' 5"
Weight: 100lbs
Hair: red set loosely to her neck. She keeps a bird feather like ornament tucked in her hair at all times.
Eyes: bright green
Scars: a long one from her right wrist almost to her elbow from tripping in the woods. It's fairly new.
Abilities:
Enhanced Speed - Akiko's sometimes sleeps and lives in the forest, being filled with creatures she has gotten used to running away and over time she just got better and better at doing so. She prefers not to fight or kill.
Commune with Animals - She has the ability to communicate with animals. They won't talk back to her of course but she can ask them to do something for her and they will understand and respond in their own way.
Healing - Akiko was trained to draw power from the earth (trees, grass, and such) to heal herself and others. But if the wound it to serious she is unable to heal it completely and it takes time. She can also transfer her energy to others to help them heal.
Defects:
Horribly Clumsy - Akiko trips on just about anything. If there were a speck of dust on the ground she could trip on it. So if being pursued she tends to get caught until she can sneak her way out of it some other way because she'll fall flat on her face mid chase.
Fatigue - If she uses her healing powers it leaves her very drained and usually to tired and weak to move anywhere from a few hours to day depending on how serious the wounds.
Uneducated - Akiko grew up in the forest so she doesn't know how to read or write very well seeing that she never went to school.
Overly Nice - So it's not really a defect but it tends to get her into trouble sometimes. If they put on a good enough show Akiko is willing to forgive people for doing some of the worst things.
Weapon(s)/Form(s) of Combat: A short sword
Family: A mother and father that live in an apartment in the city. And a 'step father' in the forest.
Background:
When she was very small (2.5 years old) Akiko lived with her parents in the city and led a fairly normal life for a small girl of her age. When everything changed was when her parents brought her into town with them. It was just this one time because they couldn't find a babysitter for her. They kept a constant eye on her for the most part but all it took was less than a minute looking away from her. Akiko wandered off into the city on her own and in a matter of moments, this being her first time alone in the city ever, she was lost.
A very confused and upset Akiko wandered the city for hours looking for her parents only to get farther and farther away from them. She found her way into the forest with all of her wandering thinking it was just another part of the city. So she kept going only to strand herself there. To tired to keep going the two year old sat down and cried. She cried until she fell asleep. When she woke up she was in a hut. There was a man in the room. He had found her in the woods and taken her into his hut inside. When he tried to get her to go home the girl couldn't remember where she had come from, the only thing she had to describe her real parent was 'mommy and daddy'. Even after many more trips to the city she couldn't recall where her home was. Her parents were untraceable in the large city. So the man (named Yuri) took her in raising her as his own child.
Akiko grew up in the forest. Yuri taught her right from wrong and basic skills she needed to survive in the woods where they lived. When she was old enough she ran errands for him going to and from the city with packages and letters and such. She had a sword to protect her from the things in the forest but she never used it for she didn't want to deprive families of their children or parents and friends by killing them no matter what species they were. Yuri payed for her basic training in healing magics and tried to get her to the city as much as possible still trying to make her find her real parents. But Yuri lost interest in that a long while ago. She always hung around in the forest with animals and such and was perfectly happy where she was though other than Yuri she has no human friends.
Current Status: Almost out of the forest on her way to the city running a package to a friend of Yuri's.
Appearance: She is pretty small build wise and made more for speed than anything. She wears an outfit made for her by Yuri that is a fancy halter top. She has a left sleeve that isn't attached to her outfit on but her left arm is wrapped in a bandage because of her scar. She's got a red skirt and leather boots on.
