IRC Nickname: Riasuka
Name: Ishinoma Riasuka
Alias: None yet.
Age: 19
Date of Birth: 12 August, 1990
Hometown: Soppuro, Japan
Height: 4'9"
Weight: 107 lbs.
Hair Color: Greenish black
Eye Color: Red
Nationality/Race: Japanese
Occupation: None. Penchant for caring for plants and animals. Also completing final semester to earn Ph.D. In spite of young age, she is a smart girl with innate understand of how living thigs work.
Personality Profile: Born originally in Soppuro Japan, Riasuka excelled in her early years in the studies of botany and zoology. With increasing evidence of her mutations becoming evident as she began to reach adolesence, her family sought to hide her away for fear it would shame the family name.
Slowly coming into her powers which she could not understand, Riasuka searched for some sign of help. That is when information on The Facility came to light. With knowledge of this academe dedicated to children such as herself, Riasuka hoarded away money until she managed to save up enough to steal away.
Up until this point she has made herself relatively unknown. The solitude, however, is now beginning to bother her.
Physical Description: Relatively average in appearance for a Japanese woman, she appears a bit more healthy than average, though she will never appear to age a day over the age of 17. Additionally, her ears are elongated about an inch and a half and pointed at the tops. Also her canines are slightly elongated as well, and her finger and toenails ending in more of a claw-like tip than the typical rounded human nails. Also of note are two long prehensile tendrils originating between her shoulder blades, and a long black prehensile tail (1.5 meters in length and 4 cm in thickness), all with a satinny leather skin, which she keeps hidden by wrapping down her back and about her waist and wearing dressies of black silk, cut to accomodate, which they blends against. Each of these three appendages she is capable of independently using and each is roughtly as stong as one of her arms, though the last 11cm or so of each is a solid, hardened bone. -Not- something you would ever want to get hit by.
Riasuka is, in many ways, a sentient walking human/plant...or as some tales of old refer, a dryad.
Character Picture (Optional):
---------------------------------
Mutation/Powers:
Riasuka's powers are a bit strange in their definition. She is directly connected into the energy of life itself. Where as this may sound like every other creature out there.... She can also manipulate its aspects. The extent to which this works is as follows:
-Transfer of life energies from herself to another, or vice versa, for the purposes of increasing the rate of healing for her target. All targets to be transferred to or from must be within 1 meter. The rate of healing is directly linked to two factors. 1) Is the relative health of the target being transferred from, 2) is the speed of the receiving party's metabolism. Riasuka has a very fast metabolism, meaning she is capable of healing a decent amount with little drain upon a target, assuming it is in good health.
-Growth and decay of organic matter. Currently she only knows how to use this ability in association with plant-life. Works using the same philosophy as the healing ability relating to animals and humans. The rate of growth is a considerably slower, where a wound on a human that would take a couple of weeks to heal, repaired in a few seconds, the same amount of repair/growth of a plant would take just as many minutes.
-Augmentation of physical abilities. Due to her increased metabolism and deep connection to living things, Riasuka has apparently taken on many aspects of the living things she connects with, short of absorbing X-gene originating aspects. As a result, she has acquired a slight increase to her physical aspects and senses, leaving her slightly (roughly equivalent to the average Olympian athlete) stronger, faster, and agile than the average human. While to many this would seem to give her great advantages, it pales greatly in comparison to the attributes of other mutants possessing similar abilities. Her senses of smell and hearing are also those of a dog or cat, including range and distance.
-Entirely out of Riasuka's current ability to control it, situations in the past that have forced her into a fight have revealed a rather dangerous aspect of her mutation. If she strikes an object, either with an appendage, or a held organic object, she creates a localized and contained shockwave between herself and the stuck object that is, for lack of better terms, a shockwave of life energy. It can be characterized as equivalent to a sonic boom, though the effect itself has no real sound (though the vibrations of rattling of a stuck object may make their own sounds), it makes a small shockwave resonation for about 1 meter ouwards from the source of the strike what make small unsecured objects (leaves and sand mostly) move outwards a few centimeters from the point of origin. This power, and the incident behind its discovery, is chiefly responsible for her pursuit of a medical career.
Drawbacks/Weaknesses : To date she has not yet accomplished any widely notable feats, mostly due to her quick exhaustion in the efforts. This may or may not be an item to be overcome with time and training.
Also, Riasuka's diet has increasingly become more particular as she and her abilities further develop. Her diet is almost exclusively meat at this point, most other foods making her extremely sick if she eats them. Any seasonings or other additives must be carefully monitored for this reason.
How do you believe this character's powers will further develop in the future? With time and practice, Riasuka may be able to further manipulate life energies and living physical bodies, those of others and herself... However, this is all dependant on her ability to build enough stamina to actually practice the use of these powers, which currently heavily drain her.
Background: A couple of items of note: While living in Japan, her father kept her in a secluded house with only a couple of attendant on hand to handle household chores, shopping, cooking, and Riasuka's education, as well as a bank account in Riasuka's name to purchase whatever she wanted to keep her distracted and out of his hair. As she grew older, Riasuka became more clever in ways to get off the grounds, and to the village not far away, where she met another mutant boy whom would become her boyfriend later on. After 5 years together with him, she fled for the United States for The Facility. She begged him to come with her, but he never made up his mind before she was gone.
Quirks/Extras (Random fun facts about your character!): Loves her modified '92 Chevy Lumina Euro. Bought and modified with money filtered into an American bank account before leaving Japan.
Often can be found playing her violin or practicing her martial arts in the gardens. Known arts include Akido, Aikido, Wushu, and Kendo. Her kendo is often practiced through use of a bokudo (a wooden sword).
