Reppu Hijiri

[edit] Biographical Information Abilities Traits and Tendencies Biography Relationships Rumors Art / Acknowledgements General Given Name: Reppu Hijiri Pronunciation: [REHP-oo HE-JI-REE] Nicknames: Rep Rep, Princess Place of Birth: The Far East, Othard Current Residence: Hijiri Residence, Mist Employer: Herself! Appearance Height: 5 fulms 1 ilm Weight: Below Average Body: Fit and lithe. Reppu's devotion to improving her martial technique has since improved since letting it falter in favor of aetherial majesty. Hair: Very pink. Eyes: Very green, with a noticeable, aetherial glow to them. Skin: Pale/Fair Scars and Markings: When using a lot of aether or becoming exhausted through the use, numerous alchemagical glyphs begin to glow, normally invisible, along her skin and scales. They tend to glow either white or green, depending on the use of unaspected or aspected aether. Clothing: Reppu opts to wear a variety of robes or loose clothing, generally fancy attire to say the least. Be it Far Eastern, Eorzean, or even Allagan styled, Reppu loves to be 'hip' with what is 'in'. Voice: Soft, but with energy at times. A slight Doman accent is present, due to where she was raised. Physical Training Ninjutsu. Frighteningly effective and a master in her own right. Fencing, some practice and lessons. Archery, mostly hunting, some practice. Preferences/Strengths: Capable in melee, Reppu prides herself on speed and reactions to see her through a physical fight. What she lacks in strength, she makes up for with deadly precision and aetherial application mixed with bladework. The woman is a shinobi for a reason! Aversions/Weaknesses: Reppu struggles with grappling and other forms of inhibiting, brute force. She is quick enough to get out of these situations, but she's prone to being overpowered with enough effort. She prefers ending fights quickly, and picking her marks carefully. Magical Training Defensive and Healing Magics. Arcanima, very adept at Carbuncle summoning. Astrology, practical. Divining, can 'read the future' and decipher fate of individuals, in specific circumstances. Aetherically tuned, can visibly perceive aether. Wind Aspected. Preferences/Strengths: If nothing else, Reppu's capabilities with aether are with out a doubt her greatest combat-driven strength. Manipulation and creation in terms of aether are very much within her realm of possibility. Ultimately, when it comes to aether, there is little doubt that Reppu does not at least have an idea of how to fight it, or how to use it. Twelve help you if she's going all out with the use of Ninjutsu. Aversions/Weaknesses: For all her aetherial might, Reppu is not very versed in elementally aspected aether of any type beyond Wind and Water. Thus, this leaves her poor in terms of conjury and thaumaturgy. While she understands the arts, she is not capable of replication them in any significant manner. Her only fallback is Ninjutsu in these circumstances, but their elemental application is not nearly as potent. Crafting Alchemist, from potions to texts to magical implements. Novice Goldsmith Preferences/Strengths: Alchemy is something that runs in the family, and so it runs through Reppu as well. Her knowledge of goldsmithing is fledgling, but enough to do her own designs and detailing on anything she makes with alchemy. Aversions/Weaknesses: Anything that runs off magitek technology, or machinery in general, is doomed to failure in Reppu's hand. An odd curse, as it were. Personality (Character Diamond)[1] No credit for the use of diamonds! Info here. Enjoy it if you use it!. IDEALISTIC PURSUIT - Walking the high ground is important to Reppu, and finding the 'good' in what might be, rather than what is. Unless proven otherwise, she is more likely to view something positively. So long as something is trying, if capable, the ideal values of that shine over any perceived or potential flaws. However, Reppu is not blindly idealistic, and is very capable of knowing when 'enough is enough'. LOYAL FURY - It is exceedingly difficult to lose the loyalty of this particular individual once it is claimed. Although this can often land her in trouble when it comes to opposing sides that she has become friendly with, Reppu's loyalty is one of her defining traits. True loyalty is being able to speak what you think is right and what you think is wrong, and she often will. Should those she has come to trust and love be under any risk, her normally kind demeanor and thoughtful approach, is instead immediately replaced by a near blind-sighted lust for retribution and justice. CRIPPLING LONELINESS - Unlike many who may pursue a life of magical academics, Reppu does not do terribly well on her own. When left to her own thoughts for too long, crippling loneliness begins to overwhelm her current thoughts, leaving her in a state of instability and risk. She will almost always get more done with at least one person by her side. REACH OUT TO THE TRUTH - Never stop asking questions. Maybe it is just hard to satisfy her, but Reppu is an extremely inquisitive individual, always looking for new paths, and the answers to the questions that rise from them. Taking the first opinion is robbing yourself the opportunity to know 'more'. And although she may not always be outspoken in terms of her desire to know more, she is always gauging what is being said and done. Likes and Dislikes + Incredibly fond of sweets. Is easily charmed with the use of chocolate, especially! + A lover of rolanberries and honey lemons. + Personal pleasure and inner peace while listening to falling rain or running water. + Few things are better than a windy day, especially in a windswept plainsland. + Absolutely adores when people acknowledge or call her 'Princess'. 'Reppuhime' is especially pleasing + Easily calmed by the offering and drinking of various forms of tea. Except spiced tea. That just makes her get devious. + A quiet evening of reading or fond company is all one really needs. --- - Incredibly dislikes when people demand respect. - Insulting herself or her friends ia a one-way ticket to sudden violence. - Blind loyalty is just as bad as someone actively trying to kill her. - Most bitter foods, although bitter tea and chocolate are A-Okay! - Egotism. There's only enough ego to go around, and a Princess gets it all! - Xenophobia. Being an exile is hard enough as it is. As a Far Eastern 'Princess', Reppu's arrival in Eorzea is something of a secret. But even still, she is often regarded as quite noble, and comes across as capable of having royal blood in her veins. Whether she does or does not, a Princess is only worth her followers, and that holds true here. Reppu maintains a good standing with the Maelstrom, as part of their research and retrieval division. Often an excuse to be able to go out and about, and avoid anything on the 'Frontlines'. --To Be Worked On. Soon. I PROMISE.-- Family Mother - Rika Hijiri (Deceased) A Far Eastern alchemist and magical protege, Rika was destined for greatness. So much so, she pushed to take destiny into her own hands. Originally obsessed with progress and her own ambitions, the end of her mortal life finally brought her some compassion for other people. Father - Ragiasu Reppu has met her father, a 'hermit living in Dravania'. He oft keeps to himself, but enjoys when they can visit. Friends and Acquaintances[1] All information here is OOC. Please treat it as such! Aysun Demiir (Best Friend/Sworn Companion) - Few people are regarded as highly as A'eyshn is. Someone who has managed to stand nearby throughout nearly every trying, hard decision, deserves special recognition. Reppu's feelings for A'eyshn are known, but kept from from becoming a problem. The Seeker is engaged, after all! All said, a very platonic and healthy relationship. Camille Everardi (Friend) - Although sometimes flighty due to her own pursuits and obligations, Camille is someone Reppu can still regard well, despite some rocky history between friends and such. The hyur's piano playing can often soothe Reppu's soul. Enju Abbagliato (Friend/Retainer/Companion) - Loyal retainer and friend, Reppu has known Enju longer than most people. Although they can sometimes be 'smart' with each other, she trusts few people as much as Enju. She tends to 'overwork' him if only to keep the Elezen in shape, knowing that the future is not going to be kind to either of them. Fenix Darkblaze (Friend/Companion) - Fenix DARKFIRE is a good man! He is well liked by this Au Ra, and his overall stoic demeanor, intelligence, and kind disposition has him a favorable individual to be around. K'hylia Fhey (Friend) - A frisky and 'well-known' adventurer, K'hylia is always amusing and fun to be around! Qiuyue Qalli (Friend/Servant/Companion) - Yue is a darling figure in Reppu's life. Her devoted loyalty, attention-giving, and care is just what a Princess has always wanted. Despite her 'dark side', Reppu is never pressed to want to be around the Xaela. R'das Sahazrh (Friend/Companion) - A machinist and apparently a skilled swordswoman, R'das is very amusing to be around. Her constant flirtation and romantic interest is noted! Yashaix Ki'lari (Friend) - Although they do not see each other too often, Ki'lari is still a friend to Reppu. Enemies ??? Far Eastern Group ??? - A group of individuals well aware of 'the truth' within Reppu, and are actively seeking it. '"The pink-haired Raen? Often seen dropping off a large cache of clothes and other goods in Mor Dhona, strictly under donation. Seems to enjoy giving the Domans stuff to survive off of. Pretty often, too. Must like them or something." '"You might get lucky and catch her working a waitress shift at the Bismarck. Thinking she does it for fun with how seldom it is..." '"Ugh. Nearly ran her over more than once outside of Red Rooster. She just likes to lay out in the middle of the fields for some reason." '"Word has it is she is a princess from the Far East. Not sure how true that is, but a few folk seem to believe it." '"She likes to pop out from no where pretty often. Must be one of those she-nobodies?" '"Rare that she is not ordering tea and some cake or other sweets when she is relaxing somewhere. Where does it all -go-?" '[Rare Rumor]"The day that Doma fell... I remember seeing a pink-haired Raen, sobbing over a blood-soaked woman. It was hard to see through all the smoke and chaos, but I think her own hands were bloody, too..." ~PC Rumors~ '"The cute girl with the pink hair? I served her at the Quicksand and she made a point to thank me for it later when I ran into her in Gridania! It was very sweet of her. She was wondering about and talking about helping the Elementals. She mentioned something about 'Shinobi', I don't know who they are but I bet they are important!" -Aya Foxheart '"Infuriating woman. Meddlers seldom make for good soldiers. Too often they assume too much. That said... Fortune favors fools. Dawn Father will bear witness either to her success... or to her failure." -Tengri Geneq Reppu by Lillieath! Reppu and Yue, by Yue! Reppu and Yue, ready to go Monster Hunting! By Yue! Reppu by Shine
