| introduction above, bio and credits below | ============== >> BIO << ♢ NAME: Yui Parker ♢ AGE: Thirteen years ♢ GENDER: Female ♢ HEIGHT: 5'1" ♢ RACE: Japanese Magical Girl ♢ SEXUALITY: Undecided ♢ PERSONALITY: Yui is extremely happy and playful, and seems to always have a smile on her face. She's incredibly confident in herself and her newfound magical powers... though she doesn't go around bragging about them. She's adopted the mentality that absolutely nothing can hurt her, and thus isn't really afraid of anything. Because of this constant positive attitude, she hardly ever needs grief seeds. ============== >> MAGICAL INFORMATION << ♢ SOUL GEM SHAPE: Pumpkin ♢ SOUL GEM LOCATION: Center of her belt ♢ SOUL GEM COLOR: Saturated Orange ♢ WEAPON: Large farming scythe ♢ ABILITY: Complete immunity to blunt force attacks. Small cuts and scrapes will also become negated by magic. ♢ STRENGTHS: Yui's power essentially makes her undefeatable against enemies whose attacks rely upon blunt force. If she gets punched, knocked down, etc, she can easily stand up like nothing happened. ♢ WEAKNESSES: Along with not being too skilled in combat, Yui's power is practically useless against enemies whose primary weapons are blades or anything sharp. Yui is currently unaware of the true fate of magical girls and the fine print of the contract. ============== >> BACKSTORY << She wasn't always happy. Thirteen years ago, a newborn baby appeared upon the doorstep of the Parker family. They were a middle-aged married couple who had no kids, and lived on a farm in a rural area of Indiana. So naturally, they were taken aback when a baby, with no identification other than the basket she lay in, began crying outside their door. Despite the unnatural situation they were in, the two chose to take care of this child with little hesitation. They realized that this baby was of Japanese descent, and soon named her Yui to honor that heritage. The Parkers took care of Yui as if she really were their biological daughter, and everyone was happy. As Yui grew up, she became infatuated with all the things her "parents" would grow on their farm... but of all the wild and wonderful items, the pumpkins were easily her favorite. She would often go out and stare in wonder at their tough orange skin, their varying sizes, and how they stood tall in the ground. Each year she would look forward to when the pumpkins grew, and she aspired to stand tall someday just like them. Then, things took a turn for the worse. When Yui turned six, she began to see things that normal people shouldn't be able to see. Otherworldly creatures roaming her vision that nobody else seemed to notice. Sudden sick and uncomfortable feelings that couldn't be explained. Her parents were quick to brush it off as imagination; but as Yui continued to grow, these "hallucinations" just grew worse. Eventually people at at school began to make fun of her for acting strangely, among other things. She quickly became the subject of unkind words, teasing, heckling... and worst of all, bullying. Yui eventually lumped these people in with all the other nasty creatures she would see... and when her parents would ask where all those cuts and bruises were coming from, Yui's only response was; "The demons got me. They got me again." And one day, she became unable to tell the bullies apart from the real monsters she saw. Yui's previously happy personality plummeted to that of a prisoner with no way out of their cage. She stopped talking outside of her home, she rarely smiled... it was like these attacks had made her an entirely different person. She became constantly afraid of when the demons would attack her again, and ran away whenever she could. One day when she was thirteen, they attacked again. And Yui ran away as fast as her legs could carry her. She was able to duck under cover, and waited until the bullies passed before breaking into tears. She was tired of being beaten into a pulp every day. She was tired of not having the strength to stand up to them. She was tired of all these bandages. And she was willing to do anything to make it stop. "I wish to become tougher, and stand tall like the pumpkins do." After that, when the demons attacked again, their hits did absolutely nothing to Yui. She didn't even feel the pain that should follow from the punches and kicks. Her wish had been granted. And Yui Parker was happy again. ...for now. ============== >> CREDITS << - Art: All art in this project was created by and belongs to - Characters: Yui belongs to me.
