[x] [x] [x] [x] [x] [x] [x] [x] [x] [x]
Age:
-- Present Nikki: 17
-- Past Nikki: 15/16
Nationality:
Half Japanese, half American
Hobbies:
She likes videogames; she plays consoles, handhelds, and the occasional MMORPG.
Appearance:
-- Present Nikki: Present Nikki stands at 5'9". Her skin tone isn't tan nor too pale; more of a shade inbetween. She has green eyes, almost teal in color. Nikki has very long brown hair, falling just a bit past her lower back, and pulled into a half ponytail of sorts. The parts of her hair pulled back are dyed a magenta/pinkish color. Her normal outfit consists of a dark red tanktop, tucked into a pair of baggy navy blue jeans. She wears a beige/tan belt, with double holes through the whole length of it, and a gold buckle. On her arms are black, fingerless gloves that go about halfway to her elbow, and have a silver ring around the wrists. She's got simple red Converse for shoes. Around her neck is a thick, extremely loose black, spiked dog collar. The spikes and buckle are silver, and she has a bone-shaped silver tag as well. This outfit is optional, as she has two more; this is her everyday wear. One thing that cannot be changed however, is that she always ALWAYS wears a chain around her neck, with one silver ring and one gold ring hanging off of it. This necklace can not be omitted. Nikki's hair parts on the right side. The right side of her bangs are longer than the left side. She's got thick eyebrows. x3
-- High School Uniform: Nikki has a high school uniform consisting of a dark red button-up vest, a white button-up longsleeve shirt underneath, a black tie tucked into the vest, and a grey skirt that ends at her knees. She wears the same shoes, and has loose, baggy, white socks. She seldom wears the red blazer, so needless to say, don't draw her in it. =P The white undershirt falls longer than the vest; she doesn't tuck it in.
-- Work Uniform: Nikki's "job" calls for another wardrobe change; the vest and shirt are the same as the school uniform, right down to the white shirt being longer than the red vest, however the tie is left untucked on this outfit. She wears black slacks, and black dress shoes; it's meant to look somewhat formal. Finishing it off is a long, black trenchcoat, the bottoms of it ragged and ending near her ankles. She carries a samurai style katana in this state, the sheath black, and the hilt is also black. The handle is black, and the thread wrapping it is red, as is the thread wrapped around the top of the sheath.
-- Past Nikki: The Nikki of the past isn't much different than the present, except for a few things; her height is 5'7" instead of 5'9", and the dyed part of her hair is the same color as the rest of her hair. In other words, it isn't dyed. The necklace with two rings is different too, but only in the way that she only has the gold ring, instead of both. She wears a sleeveless shirt instead of a tanktop, though the main idea is the same. The color is also dark red. Same pants (only black instead of navy blue), same gloves, but she doesn't wear the belt. Instead, she wears one of those cloth belts, with a silver buckle and tip (if you need an example, ask). The belt is beige/tan. Her hair is also a bit shorter. She also doesn't wear the collar.
-- Middle School Uniform: This uniform style is modeled after the obligitory "sailor" style shown in many animes, such as Sailor Moon; since this is hard to explain, I'll just provide a reference pic here, here, and the way I draw it here. The winter/spring uniform is longsleeved of course, and the summer/fall uniform is shortsleeved. In the shortsleeve version, the shirt is white, and the color of the collar/ring at the end of the sleeves is black with a single white stripe. The skirt is also black, and the tie is red. The part where the tie is pulled through is also black with a white stripe, as is the part underneath the sailor collar (like in the Kagome reference). The longsleeved version is switched, where the collar and color of the shirt become inverterted, as in where it was once white, is now black, and vice versa; the skirt remains black, however, and the tie remains red. Same red Converse and loose socks as before.
Special Abilities:
Being trained from a young age, Nikki is a master of swordplay. She commands the mighty Japanese katana, and weilds it with deadly accuracy and speed. Near untouchable and seemingly invincible, there are not many who have been able to land a blow on her.
Personality:
-- Present Nikki: Underneath a tough exterior lies an extremely insecure person. Nikki has the tendancy to snap at people who annoy her, and has little tolerance for what she dubs stupidity. She is cynical and sarcastic, and can be very unforgiving. This leads her to be vengeful and stubborn. That stubborness is also born from her pride, as she tries to stick herself to a very strict and unspoken set of morals that she made for herself, such as keeping her word and always appearing prepared. She appears to be loner, and constantly tries to do things on her own. She dislikes asking for help, or feeling like she's in a position where she needs help. Even when sick with a cold or depressed inside, she keeps up an appearance of being able to stand on her own. What she really needs though, is for someone to take care of her. Because of this, she shies from interpersonal relationships, and when in one, can be very awkward. She is rough, and often says what's on her mind very bluntly; she seldom spares feelings.
-- Past Nikki: She still seems like a loner, but she is less angry and brooding, as nothing too devastating has happened in her life yet. She simply enjoys her solitude. She is a much softer version of the current her.
Background:
Nikki hails from an ancient Japanese family of assassins. In the current times, business is slow, but they still practice the old ways. When a new generation is born, they are given a weapon and are taught to weild it with deadly accuracy. They have become more like a freelance mercenary business in modern times, their talents ranging from assassinations, to being body guards, and so on. Needless to say, their work is a secret, and specific countermeasures are taken to secure this secret, such as memory supression.
Interaction:
-- Towards Sora: Nikki is very kind towards Sora, and when with her, often smiles (which is usually rare). She loves Sora very much, and is as delicate as she can be when dealing with her. The kind of love they have is that which is unspoken, because it is just felt; they don't necessarily need to tell each other that they love one another. They just know. They understand each other very well, and often know what one another is thinking. Nikki is very courteous to Sora and would go out of her way to do a favor for her.
-- Towards Millia: In short, Nikki thinks Millia is a moron. Millia's boozing and overall carefree way of life is something Nikki can't understand and has little tolerance for. She also has a general fear of older women, so Millia's apparent interest in her scares Nikki away. There are moments however, when Nikki pities the older girl, and will grace her with a rare act of kindness.
Notes:
-- If you are to give Nikki animal attributes, when she is with Sora, she's like a pointy eared dog with a shaggy tail; think wolf. When compared to Millia, she is more like a cat.
-- When Nikki agrees to something against her nature, she usually does so grudgingly, and often becomes embarassed. In fact, Nikki is easier to embarass than one would think.
-- Nikki isn't much of a morning person; she's often groggy in the morning, and it takes her a while to "wake up."
-- Nikki has a dog named Taka, and he was a present she received from Sora on her sixteenth birthday. He's a German Shepard, and a pretty big one. Pictures with Taka would be much appreciated. :3
-- Nikki's favorite season is spring, and she enjoys weather cold enough to allow her to cuddle up in some blankets and get warm. She's the type who might take a nap in the spring sunshine.
-- She dislikes sleeves, only wearing them when she has to, like in school for example, or when she needs to wear a jacket in the wintertime.
-- Although I did give those outfits as references, feel free to make up an outfit for her if it suits you~ Just make sure it suits her style; she likes baggy pants, dislikes shirts with long sleeves, and also dislikes skirts. She tends to dress in a punk-ish fashion, and she's very tomboyish. The only time this rule may be broken is when the picture is meant to be humorous, or a cosplay picture; putting Nikki out of her element is very amusing. xP
-- Cherry blossoms and cherry blossom trees are very symbolic for Sora and Nikki, as their first meeting occured under one.

:: Millia Souma ::
" . . you might think i'm delirious;
the way i run you down . . "
[x] [x] [x] [x] [x] [x]
Age:
-- Present Millia: 20
-- Past Millia: 19
Nationality:
American
Hobbies:
She likes riding her motorcycle, the occasional beer, and playing first person shooter games.
Appearance:
-- Present Millia: Present Millia stands at 6'1". Her skin is a light peach color and she has dark blue, sapphire colored eyes. She has long blonde hair that goes down to about mid-back; it’s ALWAYS pulled back in a long, loose ponytail. The sides of her hair are kept out of her face by small, winged clips that look like this. She has three piercings on each ear. The top two are usually simple silver hoops, and the bottom one switches from day to day. Around her neck, she has a tight black choker with a small diamond dangling in the front. She always wears long sleeved shirts, she hates having bare arms unless it's for work. Her usual outfit consists of a longsleeved, light blue shirt with a low cut V-neck. She wears light boot cut jeans, usually black or grey. Over her pants, she almost always wears a loose fitting long skirt, most of the time it's tan. Ask if you need a sample. She wears heavy, black Doc Marten boots, and they have bright blue laces. The most essential part of her casual outfit is her jacket. It's such a dark grey color, it almost looks black, and it has a white fur-lined collar.
-- Work Uniform: Present Millia works in a bar as a bartender. She lied about her age to get the job. For work, she wears a tight, white T-shirt that bares her stomach and shows off her tattoo that is on her right hip. She also dons a black knee-length skirt solely for work. Everything else is the same as her casual wear.
-- Past Millia: Past Millia worked for a large, secret assassin syndicate. She'd pull back her hair in a low and messy bun to keep it out of her face. She'd wear very tight black slacks under a loose white dress shirt. Millia would also have a gun holster on both hips with two black handguns. She still had her same black boots.
Special Abilities:
She has near perfect aim with most types of guns. She's never been known to waste a bullet, except for once, when she was shot in the back while she was aiming at another person.
Personality:
Millia is very happy-go-lucky. She believes that nothing bad can happen to her as long as she keeps a smile on her face. But a lot of the time, her smiles hide the torment and guilt in the back of her head. She hates to be alone. She has been known to go find a one night stand as long as it meant she wouldn't have to be lonely that night.
Background:
Millia's family owns a small orphanage in the city that she was raised in. She grew up always surrounded by children. But when her parents divorced, she went with her father to America while her little sister, Nagisa, stayed with their mother.
Interaction:
-- Towards Nikki: Millia fell in love with Nikki the moment she saw her, covered in her dead lover's blood. She adores the girl, and no matter how many times she's kicked down, she'll always get back up to give it another try, even if it means a broken heart (or broken bones) in the end.
-- Towards Sora: The first and only time she ever saw Sora was right before Millia was supposed to kill her. But right away, Millia knew she wouldn’t be able to kill such an innocent person.
Notes:
-- Millia dislikes animals; this being said, you can imagine that Nikki likes to torment her with Taka.
-- Millia is also a smoker. Nikki dislikes it, so Millia usually doesn't smoke around her.

:: Sora Yukishiro ::
" . . i want to feel it forever;
this feeling of just being with you . . "
[x] [x] [x] [x] [x] [x]
Age:
15/16
Nationality:
Japanese
Hobbies:
Sora loves to read. She finds books and knowledge more valuable than gold.
Appearance:
-- Everyday Wear: Sora stands at 5'3", and her skin tone is a bit lighter than Nikki's. Her eye color is somewhat hard to place; it is a clear, crystal sky blue; they're meant to emulate a perfectly clear blue sky. Sora's hair is long, even longer than Nikki's; it ends around her knees. It's somewhat thin, and pulled back into a low ponytail; low, but not very loose. She ties it back with an old-fashioned miko style tie, like this: [x] [x] [x] [x] Her hair color is a dark, dark brown. Sora's bangs just kind of hang in her face; they're somewhat messy. xP She almost always wears a pair of thin, rectangle-shaped glasses; the rims are somewhat thick, and they're black. Sora's general outfit consists of a button-up vest which is navy blue. It has gold buttons. Underneath is a plain button-up casual shirt, longsleeved. It's like a royal purple. This shirt has abnormally long shirttails; try and include these. She has a black tie with blue stripes, tucked in beneath the vest. She wears a long black skirt, and plain wooden sandals with a dark red strap: [x] [x] Pretty simple, eh? xP Another note: Sora wears a necklace much like Nikki's, only underneath her shirt. It's a gold chain with a silver ring on it; if you are to draw Sora in a way where this item will show, you MUST draw it. Also feel free to include it outside of her shirt, if it will fit a picture you want to make. x3
-- Middle School Uniform: You can optionally draw Sora in her middle school uniform. Since she and Nikki attended the same middle school, it's the same outfit:
Description
This uniform style is modeled after the obligitory "sailor" style shown in many animes, such as Sailor Moon; since this is hard to explain, I'll just provide a reference pic here, here, and the way I draw it here. The winter/spring uniform is longsleeved of course, and the summer/fall uniform is shortsleeved. In the shortsleeve version, the shirt is white, and the color of the collar/ring at the end of the sleeves is black with a single white stripe. The skirt is also black, and the tie is red. The part where the tie is pulled through is also black with a white stripe, as is the part underneath the sailor collar (like in the Kagome reference). The longsleeved version is switched, where the collar and color of the shirt become inverterted, as in where it was once white, is now black, and vice versa; the skirt remains black, however, and the tie remains red.
Sora wears black Mary Janes for shoes, and black nylon stockings instead of socks.
-- High School Uniform: Sora was barely admitted to the same high school as Nikki before she met her untimely death; she only had a few chances to wear it. But if you opt to put her in it, a description is as follows:
It has a dark red, button-up vest and a white button-up, longsleeve casual shirt underneath. Sora tucks her shirt into her skirt, unlike Nikki. She also wears the blazer, which is dark red like the vest, and she buttons it up. If you need a reference, let me know. She also wears the long grey skirt, ending at about her knees. She's traded in the Mary Janes for plain, black loafers, though she still wears the black nylon stockings.
Special Abilities:
Although she has no "superhuman" abilities like Nikki, she has a high capacity for knowledge, and is very smart.
Personality:
Sora is extremely kind. Most of the time anyway... She can have a sarcastic streak, as she says things very frankly. For the most part however, she is mild-mannered and down-to-earth. She has a positive outlook on life and enjoys living; something she was able to show Nikki while they were together. It was this very personality trait that made Nikki fall in love with her even more. Sora prefers to do things in a light-hearted and fun way. She often smiles serenely. The maternal instinct in Sora attracted her to help Nikki, who was very cynical and somewhat hopeless. Sora showed Nikki that not all people are bad, and she taught Nikki that it's okay to have someone to lean on. Sora loves reading, and learning new things is always fascinating to her. Despite her seemingly constant level-headedness, sometimes she's very distracted and airheaded. This is due to the fact that she spends a lot of time thinking. At times, Sora enjoys teasing Nikki playfully. She likes calling Nikki, "Kitty," since she finds it humorous that Nikki personifies with dogs. Sora thinks she's much more like a cat. Though Sora is generally gentle and kind, she knows when to put her foot down, and doesn't let herself get pushed around.
Background:
Sora's family has long owned a shrine in Japan. She's not overly religious or superstisious, but she has been taught some of the tricks of the trade, and even has her own miko uniform. The top is white and the bottoms are red.
Interaction:
-- Towards Nikki: Sora is gentle and kind with Nikki, but also knows when to reprimand her. She's like a guiding light for Nikki, and helps her find peace within her troubled soul. Nikki relies heavily upon Sora at times, and Sora doesn't mind at all. She's more than ready for the challenge. Sora is one of the only people who can see through and understand Nikki completely. She loves Nikki in every sense of the word, and would do anything for her.
-- Towards Millia: Sora never met Millia, so there's nothing to put here. xD
Notes:
-- Sora can also be drawn in the miko outfit if you wish. =P It's very similar to Kikyou's.
-- As mentioned before, Sora enjoys playfully teasing Nikki, because she often gets very embarassed; Nikki cares very much what Sora says, and would never get angry at her. Contrarily, she may get a bit depressed and pout if she took Sora seriously. xP
-- Sora may also be drawn in an alternate outfit, if you can think one up. 83 She likes longsleeved shirts and long skirts, as her current outfit implies. I'm pretty open to how people may interpret Sora, though. I like lolita style stuff.. Hint hint. xP
-- Sora likes animals and nature. :3
-- Cherry blossoms and cherry blossom trees are very symbolic for Sora and Nikki, as their first meeting occured under one.
