[li]Picture Reference:
[/li][li]Character Name: Kimimela
[/li][li]Class: Macabre Dancer
[/li][li]Characters apparent Age: 25
[/li][li]Characters Gender: Female
[/li][li]Characters Hair Color: Black
[/li][li]Characters Eye Color: Dark Yellow
[/li][li]Character Height: 5 ft 8 inches (178 cm)
[/li][li]Character Weight: 130 pounds (60 Kg)
[/li][li]Character Clothing Style: Shimmery silken robes of dark blacks or blues, tinkling jewelry and simple makeup. They are similar to Japanese kimonos, or even possibly samurai style clothing in that they have large, flowing sleeves.
[/li][li]Character Physical Traits: Slim and sleek, complexion well tanned (naturally). Angled features, but not sharp enough to draw blood.
Wave patterns: Of the air element. They run down her arms, legs and up her neck to profile her face. They are swirling lines like ethereal vines, and are an iridescent violet where they are most prominent - around the areas previously mentioned.
The tattoos actually cover her whole body but other than in the places where the lines are boldest, (these are normally covered up so if you were to look at her bare torso, for example) they are more shadowy and only by looking closely can you see the defined lines.
[/li][li]Characters Personality: She is eloquent and charming. She is not quick to anger, but is willing to fight and is proud of her strategic prowess in fights and social exchange. She sometimes has a very ironic and black sense of humour. Her main interest is to discover as much of The World and who is in it as possible, but she also aspires to become very powerful.
[/li][li]Fighting Style: Incorporating various dancing arts and a few martial arts (mainly the Mantis style), she fights with a smooth and graceful power, using her quick feet and balance to be able to get around and at her enemies and then get out of the way just in time. Her sweeping gowns she uses to distract her opponent and disguise her actions. Though she uses magic often enough - she is a mage after all - she will back away to cast a spell or two but will quickly return to the fray in between castings to reap as much damage as possible.
[/li][li]Strengths: She has the speed to potentially run 100m in 11 or so seconds, but wouldn't be able to do more than 100 metres at that speed. Her speed is mostly focused on the small things: she has reflexes sharp enough to parry arrows out of the air. Her balance on two feet is as good as a cat's on four paws.
[/li][li]Weaknesses: She has very low defense. Unfortunately, to allow her fan to deal effective damage she must wear no armour, as well, to allow full movement, accuracy and speed. Her speed makes up for her below-average attack power, even for a mage.

Weapon Information|:.[/li][li]Weapon Name: Noctua (Latin for Night Bird).
[/li][li]Weapon Type: Rapid Attack (Battle Fan)
[/li][li]Weapon Appearance: Noctua is jet black with streaks of dark blue, and each fold has a thin line of silver, allowing it to flash as it is opened and twirled. At each end of the fan is a straight blade, and each fold has a blade tip at the end. The blades themselves are of a hardened black ore, and razor sharp.
[/li][li]Weapon Abilities:
channel spells: With a touch of the hand, Kimimela can set her fan so with every strike on a foe, she casts one of her spells automatically - like imbuing poison into her fan will poison each enemy she swipes at. With buffs, they only cast once per foe since buffs can’t stack themselves. This will cost the exact same as normal to how much energy she uses. Though she could, in theory, attach any spell to her fan, she mainly focuses on buffs and single-target spells since AoE spells are more effective if properly aimed at a group instead of a person. They only hit if she hits the enemy's body, parrying or attacking an inanimate object will not cause the spell to go off.
She also uses her fan when casting spells normally; when she’s not in melee combat her fan glows with elemental energy, then she slices the air with her fan to volley spells at enemies.

Character Background Information|:.[/li][li]Friends: none of importance
[/li][li]Enemies: none
[/li][li]History: was just recently un-n00bified, so knows the basics but is only level 5. Nothing remarkable to consider since she started 3 weeks ago - she has spent the time online talking with various members and understanding exactly how the game works. She hasn't considered joining a guild yet.

[/li][li]Player Name: Cathy (short for Catherine)
[/li][li]Occupation: Student, in grade 9
[/li][li]Age: 15
[/li][li]Gender: Female
[/li][li]Hair Color: Dark Brown
[/li][li]Eye Color: Brown
[/li][li]Height: 5 ft 5 inches (165 cm)
[/li][li]Weight: 120 pounds (50 Kg)
[/li][li]Clothing Style: Jeans and a T-shirt, sneakers.
[/li][li]Physical Traits: Her hair is almost always in a ponytail. She has the shadowed remainder of a very freckled ancestry. Comfortable weight, mainly rounded features and a typical white complexion.
[/li][li]Personality: Cathy, or Catherine - though she hates her full name - would like to think of herself as the strong, silent type. Quiet in school and around large crowds. Loves learning, and thankfully is not bullied in school for it. Enjoys helping others when asked. Shares the same ironic sense of humour her character plays but not the social prowess. She loves to read and learn about the world. She always ends up finishing her textbooks second month of school or so, and commonly can be seen with layman’s versions of scientific theorems or a philosophical dissertation in front of her nose. She grew up in the age of technology, and is addicted to its convenience. She loves the internet and its endless amounts of information. She takes her laptop and smartphone wherever she goes. Her only non-scientific vice is painting. She loves drawing abstract or impressionist paintings, playing with colours and types of paint and watercolour. She grew to like it after taking art class art the beginning of grade seven and uses it as a pass time now.

Biographical Information|:.[/li][li]Parents: Mom and Dad. Technically, they’re Jennifer and Joseph, but really they’re just Mom and Dad. They both are supportive and loving.
[/li][li]Siblings: One brother, 2 years older. He is graduating high school at the end of the year and moving away to France to be an architect. He is enjoying his last year to irritate his li’l sister.
[/li][li]Relatives: She sees her grandparents sometimes, but most of her family live in Wales, so she doesn’t see them much.
[/li][li]History: Cathy grew up in a snobby part of London, middle class. She’s lived there all her life, and has tried hard not to get assimilated into having a permanent nose-in-the-air attitude. Her parents are not too well-off but they are managing all right. When she was little she would do typical kid-things: climb trees, play tag with the friends in the neighbourhood, plead for candies from her Mom, contemplate the physical difficulties in the uncertainty theory...
As she grew older she withdrew to books, find it much more rewarding than putting effort into establishing strong social relationships. She has a few friends at school anyway, and enjoys conversation occasionally, but she still lives in her mind a lot more.
When Cathy joined The World she was amazed at its social network. She enjoys being able to do things she cannot do in real life - she has always want to learn to dance or know a martial art, and in game she's able to act out that fantasy.
Her emotional state is normally calm, but not recently. She has unfortunately realized her decision many years ago to shy away from crowds has put herself into quite a disagreeable situation. Shane, a fellow classmate, has caught her fancy and she hasn’t nearly enough courage to even approach the fellow. It has been plaguing her mind for three weeks now and the frustration is starting to get to her.
Her parents are typical, mother being a secretary and father being a electrical technician. Her Dad wants her to be a Doctor, and her Mom wants her to pursue her passion for learning and be a scientist of some sort. She, personally, likes the idea of helping people but would prefer to do it with new scientific progress and not by sewing up bloody bodies. She’s willing to sacrifice the potential monetary gain from being a doctor to devote a life to research.

Role Playing Information|:.[/li][li]Sample RP
That bastard!
His sandled feet slapped loudly as he ran toward the open hallway on the other side of the room. Kimmimela quickly got up and sprang after the fool who had just half-tripped over the arched threshold. In a matter of seconds, she was at his heels. Flip flops. Who wears flip flops? Jeesh... She then slammed one of her feet down onto one of the thin soles of his pathetic excuse for footwear and as he pitched forward, she helped him along by pulling his other foot into the air. Good thing he’s a worse noob than me, and a clutz to boot...
There was a loud *clang* as the boy hit the ground. Haha, even better - I probably dented his armour. She took one of her knees and dug it deep in between his shoulder blades, hoping to at least get some good skin pinching out of his plating. She heard a painful groan emanate from the one beneath her.
“Give it here, thief!” She hissed, pushing her knee harder into his chest, the resultant protest giving her great pleasure.
“Ow! I was here first! You stole 5 kills from me!” whined Kimimela’s captive, “Get off me!” Wow he’s young, he sounds hardly older than 10...
“Not until you give me my item! I did NOT steal your kills, you sat back and let me take them! And then you waited for me to kill the boss and then stole my item! Give it to me now!”
Wimpering ensued, and as it became more pathetic than it is able to be faked, she realized she really was dealing with a little kid...
“Hey, look, don’t cry... man... you wanted that item pretty bad, right? Do you think it’ll make you stronger?”
The wimpering stopped. The reply was defensive but not as bratty as before. “Yeah, of course it’ll make me stronger! It’s a good weapon! It’s got twice the attack of the one I have now!”
Kimimela sighed. “Ok, listen. You’re... you’re level 2. Once you get past a certain point, weapons will not make you that much stronger. The best way to get strong is to work on what you already have! If you were to have asked me to help you out, I would have given you that item, I don’t even need it. But you stole it from me, and on that principle, you did wrong and you offended me. Stealing online is just as bad as stealing for real. When you steal online, you steal from a real person too. Would you steal something at school and get away with it?”
“No... I’d get sent to the principal’s office..” said the boy.
“Right. Well, pretend this is school. You don’t get away with it here, either. You have to earn your stuff here, just like you earn your grades at school. If you don’t work hard, you’ll get bad marks. Today, you have given yourself a failing grade. Do you understand?”
“.... umm... ya.. sorry... but I want the weapon! It’s mine! You don’t even need it!” Whined the kid again. Cath sighed out loud. Well, he is a kid, what’s his is his...
“Ok kid, but promise me you’ll never steal again. Stealing is bad, and if you steal from a lot of people, people will spread the word and you’ll probably be PKed because of it. I’m not gonna kill you, but others will.”
“Really?”
“Yeah.”
“Oh... ok... well, I won’t steal, ok?”
Cathy smiled. “Right. Ok, bud. Keep the weapon. Just remember this.” She lifted herself off him and pulled him up. As he stared at her, she thought Wow, even his character’s face looks kiddish. She shooed him away and he spun around to make a hasty getaway, his silly flip flops echoing off the dungeon walls.
