-insert something witty here-

Name: Rika Ishikawa
Gender: Female
Age: 16

Class: 2-1 (Taiyoutono)

Clubs/Occupation: Tennis Club

Personality: Stern and humorless, Rika is a straitlaced student with a no-nonsense attitude. Quite outspoken, she is very critical to others and does not tolerate anything that can be considered as improper behaviors. Uncompromising, she absolutely dislikes rule-breakers and troublemakers, and she is not afraid to make her contempt towards them known to everyone. Rules and laws are meant to be followed and obeyed, and considers breaking the rules for the greater good to be completely unacceptable. Simply put, she is a complete killjoy and not a fun person to have a party with. She also hates parties.

Still, Rika have strong moral principles and is quite earnest. If she does something, she does it with an absolute conviction, and her opinion is not easily swayed, no matter what. While she may seem like an absolute killjoy to those who do not know her well, she can be friendly to those who do, and is very loyal to those she considers her friends. Also, she is not harsh and critical to others due to malice, but due to her desire to help others to improve themselves and their behaviors.

While she may present herself as an outspoken, critical and no-nonsense person, deep inside, she is still pretty much a normal teenage girl. She likes fashionable clothes and likes reading fashion magazines. She also likes reading manga and watching anime, which are done in secret in order to maintain her appearance as a straitlaced honor student. She is also easily frightened by a lot of things, particularly thunder and bugs.

History: Rika has a completely normal childhood. Her father is a civil worker while her mother is a housewife. She has one older brother, one older sister and one younger brother. Her older brother is a journalist and is already married while her older sister is a college student. Her younger brother is also a student of Taiyoutono High School and a freshman. Rika gets along well with her parents and her siblings and she considers her older brother her role model.

During elementary school, Rika was often bullied due to her being a crybaby. Tired of being a target of bullying by her schoolmates, she asked her older brother to teach her on how to become more confident. As a result, she became the way she is today thanks to her brother's tutelage. The bullying stopped. And due to her believing that adhering to the rules is the most proper way to live, she grew up to become the uncompromising, humorless and straitlaced girl she is today.

Other than that, Rika does not have any tragedy that befell her when she was young. Except maybe one particular time when she was trapped in a storage room during a thunderstorm. Due to the experience, she became an astraphobic and claustrophobic.

Appearance: Rika is average in height and has a rather slim body. Her short, bob-cut hair is dark-colored, almost blue under certain lighting. She does not wear any notable accessories except a few hairpins. The color of her eyes is electric blue, which somehow matches the color of her hair under certain lighting.

In terms of demeanor, Rika carries herself in a rather confident and self-assured manner. And due to her humorlessness, she rarely smiles, solidifying her status as an absolute killjoy. She also has a tendency to fold her arms over her chest in order to assert superiority and dominance whenever she's being outspoken and critical.

At school, due to her upholding the rules, she wears her uniform properly. She seems to prefer black socks over the white ones. Outside of school, she opts to wear fashionable yet modest clothes, preferably with sleeves. She only wears sleeveless shirt/blouse if it's too hot outside and will rather have her arms covered up if she can help it. Her choice of footwear is something that covers her toes, like sneakers and boots. Like sleeveless shirts/blouses, she only wears sandals if it's too hot outside.

Picture: Later.

Weapon: Rika does not have any experience in martial-arts, but she seems to prefer a shinai in a fight.
Mask: A plain full mask which is blue in color. The eye-sockets are slits. Both nose and mouth are fixed and there are no segmented sections on the mask.

Persona: Vimana, a shining chariot described in Hindu texts and Sanskrit epics. It is golden in color and has four spiked wheels. While identified as a chariot, it is shaped like a sport car that somehow integrates classical design of ancient chariots that are commonly found in Hindu scriptures. And despite being a vehicle, it is not actually rideable because it does not have a seat.

Oh, welcome back again.

This character looks alright over all, but there are a few minor things I'd like to have taken care of.


  • Firstly? There's a few times when you handle plurals odd. last line of her personality should say 'thunder' instead of 'thunders' or maybe 'thunderstorms'? This shows up again with 'experiences' when 'experience' reads better under weapon. Lastly, the first line of the second paragraph of appearance should say 'in terms of' instead of 'in term of.'
  • I'd really like it if you expanded upon her siblings. Four children in one household is really a big strain. Unless her parents spaced them out so that her elder siblings are basically self-sufficient adults at this point?


It's just those two major things I found, take care of that, and Rika should be cleared to fly.
