No pretty graphics and stuff since this is only temporary xd

First of all...you MUST be good at drawing japanese style clothing
The request is of my OC, Nova wearing an outfit based on traditional japanese style clothing, but modernized and much sexier.

the most basic part is the skirt:
a fairly short, tight fitting teal miniskirt

next is the shirt:
the shirt is a black kimono style top with a slightly off the shoulder look. The trim of the shirt is teal, and there is a teal and whit flower pattern at the bottom left and maybe right shoulder of the shirt. the top wraps tightly around nova's body to show off her curves, but the sleeves are long and loose like that of an actual kimono. the back of the shirt is fairy low as well and forms a v in the back up to where the shirt is tied with a teal colored obi. (at her waist, or under her breasts)

the rest of the outfit is comprised of thigh high white socks, and wooden sandals with teal straps to match the shirt and skirt, as well as a neck ribbon which can be colored either black or teal.

hair: hair can be either loose, or preferably have a medium sized teal and black butterfly hair clip on the left side of nova's head.

Chibi by rhuu

Basic Info
Name: Nova Zeal
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Race: Half Demon Half Angel
Occupation:none...she's kind of a drifter
Siblings:none known
Powers: Mostly someshapeshifting and wind-based stuff

Physical Features
Height: 5'6"
Hair: Long, layered silver colored hair that reaches to just under her butt or mid-thigh. Nova most often leaves her hair loose...but occasionally styles her hair when she dresses up. At times she ties it back in a ponytail or a loose braid (No bangs! at least not a lot...*sigh*)
Eye Color: Silvery Gray.
Body type: Somewhat slender, but well porportioned...one couldn't really call her flat chested
Other: Nova has a forehead jewel that is either red or blue depending on her mood/currently dominant personality. She also has a pair of elf-like ears

Personality
Because of the fact that Nova is half angel and half demon, two bloodlines that shouldn't coexist, her personality became fragmented at one point. There are 3 more 'dominant' personalities and a sort of sub-personality that doesn't show itself very often. Nova?s ?angel? and ?demon? personalities are nicknamed ?Aira? and ?Kali? respectively. (Their information is found below)

User Image

Personality 1 (Nova's normal self before the split): Nova is generally cheerful, somewhat good-natured, and energetic around her friends. On occasion, however, she likes playing pranks on her friends. She does, however, have an extremely stubborn streak in her and shows her emotions very easily in her face, which means that it?s hard for her to hide things from others. Fortunately for her, she usually a fairly honest girl?except for when it comes to a guy she?s attracted to. In that case, she almost tries to avoid them and becomes very flustered. And of course, her pride doesn?t allow her to admit her feelings first. This unfortunately causes quite a few misunderstandings with potential boyfriends so Nova is, of course, single. Nova also tends to be a bit shy around new people, generally not speaking to others around spoken to. Despite this, she does tend to trust people fairly easily once befriended by another person.

Clothing: To amuse herself a bit while she is on her travels, Nova often decides to dress up for fun, so she'll wear just about anything. While she?s actually traveling however, she sticks to more casual, or at least comfortable clothing. Nova does have a slight aversion to the color pink. No particular reason, she just doesn't like it much. When traveling in villages full of bounty hunters/ religious fanatics, Nova can sometimes be seen in a cloak or mantle with a hood to hide her hair and ears. (Dying her hair doesn?t work for some odd reason and Nova cannot change the color of her hair. In any case her silvery eyes are weird as well, but less people notice or even care about that)

Side-notes: This is also the personality in which her powers are more dominant. She tends not to use them though. (This personality generally does not have wings...) This is also the personality that uses the rubber chicken as a weapon. (it?s sorta a joke weapon) Nova is completely unaware of her 3rd persona, but knows of her 2nd one as a voice inside her head. She can also be quite clumsy when flustered. Nova also has a strange ability to change her gender.

History
Nova is the offspring of the demon prince, Asura, and the only female angel, Aerith. Unfortunately, because of certain circumstances and interference from other people, she was unable to be raised by her parents, who were forcibly separated. She would have been killed if she had been discovered by Michael when her parents were found, but was saved by Sakuya (Aerith?s servant/guardian.) Sakuya, however, was unable to do much for Nova, leaving her in a human village under the care of Youko, a human woman, and her boyfriend Biyan, a water fairy. Because she shared enough similarities with Biyan, (who had elfish ears and a forehead jewel) Nova was somewhat accepted by the villagers as the child of the strangely paired couple, and is raised for the first 12 years of her life without too much trouble. However, when Biyan leaves Youko for a Fire sprite, it is revealed that Nova is not Biyan?s child. The village, being a human village, became unsettled at the presence of a child with strange features and unknown origin. As the uneasiness towards Nova?s origin increases, the village becomes determined to kill both mother and child. Youko, who loved Nova as a real daughter, quickly packs Nova?s things and sends Nova out of the village promising her that she will follow after. Nova obediently obeys her mother and escapes the village safely, but Youko who stays behind, is captured and executed (She actually had no intention of following Nova, but intended to stay as a decoy while Nova escaped) Nova learns about her mother?s death about a month later, and wanders from village to village aimlessly. Half a year later, she meets a shapeshifting demon by the name of Raven, who, recognizing her as an orphaned demon, decides to take her in on a whim. (Raven is the one who teaches her to control her powers) However, when Nova is 16, Nova?s life is once again disrupted by a series of events, which leads to the fragmentation of her personality. When Nova?s personality first fragments, Raven learns of Nova?s angel blood, and Nova is once again left without a home. Since then, she?s been traveling from village to village never staying in one place long. (She's not very well recieved in most small villages)
