[Girasol of Chaos]

Sorry for being a bit late. I hope this profile is alright, and I'm looking forward to joining.

Placed here since this is more active and more likely to be noticed/edited as such, etc.

Name: Shinobu Meguro

Gender: Female

Aura: Deep Orange

Appearance: Towering at 6'2", Shinobu, or Shin, is extremely tall and well-built for a girl of 17. Having more muscle than not, Shin is strong and carries herself just as expected - proudly. Her black hair is often disheveled, having only enough care to style her somewhat tall mohawk in the morning. The remaining strands don't reach past her neck and cut unevenly. Shinobu's irises are bright red with dark blue creeping up from the pupils, but hardly noticable. Her grin reveals two semi-prominent lower tusks tucked behind her lips. She has semi-fair complexion, with only a hint of any asian appearance.

Shin is often seen wearing light grey pants and a matching sleeveless top. Her favorite shirt has a bold yellow stripe down the right side. On colder days she will add a khakhi jacket, mostly dark grey with a faint orange tone to it. Her black tennis shoes have grey trimming and have seen quite some use.

In natural form Shin remains the same height, but her ogre features are prominent. Shinobu's skin is a cool red, while her eyes are ultramarine. Well above her eyes two black horns jut outwards with a slight downwards curve. Her ears are large and pointed; the unelegant cousins of elf ears. Curved tusks are clearly shown even with her mouth closed, and her jaw is boxed in the manner that would suggest her bite could rival a bulldog's. Musculature in her natural form is more pronounced, being only a little slimmer than what could be labeled as a she-hulk. Her hair is more wild as well, being extremely bushy in the mohawk area and the loose strands able to reach her shoulder line. The actual 'hawk ends somewhere between her shoulder plates. Her nails are also a little sharper, but not claws.

On rare occassions will Shin's skin and eye color reverse to align with another personality. All other appearances in this form remain the same, though this one is less likely to grin madly.


Race: Oni

Abilities: Strength Boost: Shinobu has incredible strength, enough to scare almost any human she decides to demonstrate this with. There are times she can use her muscles to, say, break a wall, but such displays are frowned upon and often will make her feel weak afterwards. She will fully recover after a brief period of rest.

Oni club: In an emergency, where her hands or ready objects fail her, Shin always has her club. The club is summonable and appears out of a quickly created cloud of condensation. The more aggressive she feels, and occassionally there will be some small strands of electricity in this makeshift cloud. They aren't very harmful, though.

Human disguise: Oni learn early on to decieve humans, and the best way to do this is through acting as one of them. Her human form appears as above and can be used at will, except for times of extreme exhaustion.

Background: Being practically kicked out of the house by her parents, Shin was enrolled in Amaranth Institute in hopes someone would teach her a lesson, hopefully while she was being educated. A rather crude and competitive girl, she enjoys being on top of the food chain, and will assert herself loudly and if brute force when she feels it is needed. Her grades are often barely passing, as she uses school more of a training ground for her athletics with some socialization mixed in. It seems she has almost always been a bit of a bully, flaunting her strength since intelligence tends to fail her. Although she has been taught that humans are not tasty snacks, on occassion an irritating individual almost transforms in her mind into a talking steak.

Her history shows that she has transferred schools many times and was sent to Amaranth as a final attempt. As such, she is not quickly attatched to anything that is not food, a method of strengthening herself or something to hurt.

Clubs: Track and field- shot put.
Wrestling

Notes: Shinobu has Multiple personality disorder, with a single personality, named Chou.

Chou is unnoticable visually unless in her natural state. Unlike Shin she is a quiet intellectual, but will not readily talk to anyone. She's also noticably more mature, and feels a couple years past her actual age. There's nothing Chou would like more than to curl up in the libary of the school and read her days away, absorbing new information. Very few lapses are made to reveal Chou. Although neither of them will talk about it, Shin's strong upbringing hints at physical abuse as a small oni, with one prominent event resulting in the split.

Both personalities are strictly carnivore. Normal food is not harmful, but just tastes bad. They both have deep hatred for soy products.


Relationships: Shinobu has a bit of trouble making close friends, being somewhat of a jerk and all. The few individuals she converses with are on track or wrestling, mostly concerning how to improve her technique. Most other conversations with her peers revolve around social events, how terrible something is or who should get hurt. None are important enough for her to even stick her neck out for. Very happy to socialize, not ready to be considerate towards others. She is more than happy to punch whoever she feels like in the face, though.

Offering her food is one way to quickly become her friend. Just make sure it isn't your finger.
