2. Technician
 Name Zoe Koh Evans
Referred to as Koh. Red calls her brat, and she thinks it's endearing.
Gender Female
Age 16
Status Bloomingly single.
Eyes Dark brown
Hair Black, a little over shoulder length and a bit dry. Usually kept loose around her shoulder except for the top half, which is usually worn scraped away from her face with a clip of some sort.
Facial accessories A pair of thin rectangle glasses, dark blue that she wears in class. She does wear the glasses around her neck when she doesn't need it, and can be found chewing at the ends. Which is a disgusting habit, really.
Build Average toned. Not too pale, not too tanned. On the slender side and average height. Nothing really remarkable.
Appearance Clothing is usually kept very muted. Normally in holiday beach wear that consists of a rainbow collection of flip flops, baggy shirts and tiny mini shorts. Concessions to the weather is usually seen in a layering of scarves and maybe a transition to bright colored leggings. And coats. But she has a tendency of keeping with the flip flops unless it reaches subzero temperatures: then uh... she misses school. Or wears socks outdoors.
Likes Pedicures are her weakness. While her hands are usually kept tame and trim in terms of nail length and color, she does like to draw attention to her feet. Usually covered in outlandish patterns with morbidly matching flipflops, she refuses to cover her feet and are quite proud of them.
Personality A little bit quirky and somewhat perverted. She's a little bit of a diva when it comes to her woe is me tirades and has a tendency of reading too much into situations. An off beat, independent character, she's quite frank and often criticized of being too friendly, and not being able to read people correctly.
An insane procrastinator, she's really the joker of the team, and used to not getting her own way when it comes to doing what she wants when she wants. A sulker as well, she's a good team player when it comes to games and missions, but poor when it comes to being punished and blamed for "harmless jokes".
Koh has a glorified image of what a technician and weapon's relationship is supposed to be like and often takes this out on Red as if it's his fault. She is a little bit clingy however, so watch out!
Background Zoe Koh Evans is the eldest of three children, having a younger brother and a younger sister. Her mother works in a hair salon and her father in a tae kwon do dojo, giving her ample opportunity to have picked up on some skills from either side.
Neither parents nor siblings are pursuing a life as a technician, but she does have a smattering of cousins and aunts who have. Therefore, the idea isn't completely foreign to her, but it's not something she really understands as well.
Koh hasn't lost her rose tinted glasses, and she thinks that there is something incredibly magnificent and hero-esque about Shibusen. She does have a slight super hero complex.

3. Weapon
 Name Jared 'Red' Hill
Referred to as Red by Koh, and it seems to have stuck.
Gender Male
Age 17
Status Koh says he's celibate, Red claims to just not be interested.
Eyes Dark blue
Hair Dark brown. Shortly cropped and usually gelled in the annoying way guys seem to spike it up.
Build Average height but a little bit taller than Koh, he's still a little bit on the skinny side. He's a lot more tanned than she is, preferring the outdoors and the sun.
Appearance A very casual, laid back sort of guy, Red's usually dressed in jeans and a t-shirt of some kind, although there are times when Koh steals his shirts and wears them as her own. Usually in sneakers, he has unfortunately picked up the flipflop bug and owns a couple. (... Koh gets them on a 2 for 1 sale...)
Very distinctively normal, he's usually not far from Koh.
Likes His space, formality, privacy. He understands rules and traditions and knows what he's supposed to do and supposed to be! Therefore Koh's incredibly annoying habit of coming into his space, stealing his clothes and painting his toes pisses the hell out of him! He also likes the color red, and does prefer to wear one article of this color when he can. (... except for dozen red boxerbriefs Koh gave him as a gift... that's just perverted.)
Personality Due to (in his mind) the unusual form he takes as a weapon, Jared is very protective and very touchy about the fact that he is, as Koh puts, a wavy sword. Perhaps thats why he happens to be so straight laced about everything else. He wants to prove he's not as unusual as he might appear.
The serious one in the tag team, Red is actually a very laid back easy going guy: but having been paired with a somewhat insane and dangerous technician, he's pulling the ropes in this relationship. Quite protective over Koh and constantly trying to get her to take a bigger role in their relationship, he doesn't mind smacking her around a bit to get her to pull her weight and to do the work they're supposed to. So not a real dominant, just a practical one?
Koh calls him Red because she thinks every partnership needs to have cute nicknames. However, she does have the unfortunate habit of trying to sneak into his room and paint his toes, which means Red is a very light sleeper and usually has an expression of pain on his face whenever he gets up in the morning.
Background Red is the youngest of four boys, and has always been coddled as the youngest baby by his parents and his siblings. His parents both work his grandfather in a insurance firm, but that's not very important to his upbringing.
Red has more or less been raised by his oldest brother, with whom he has a 8 year gap. The eldest is also a weapon who has a strong and deep relationship with his technician. Red has always looked up to this and has wanted to have the same relationship and reach the same levels as his brother has. So you could say Shibusen was his future ever since he was a child.
However, things haven't turned out the way he planned for it to, and he finds himself a little bit lost and confused most of the time because Koh is so different from what he wanted, and well... it's just not going as smoothly as he has intended things to.
Weapon Form Red turns into a flame bladed sword which is really just a normal sword, it just happens to be wavy.

4. Living details.
The Apartment The apartment opens up from the main door to an open kitchen and a combined living room/dining room. Between the living room/dining room combination is a guest bathroom that really just consists of a toilet and a sink.
If that can be imagined to be on the left side of the apartment, on the right side are two bedrooms, with a sharing bathroom that does have bathtub/shower combination. The two bedrooms are roughly the same size, square in shape and also share a veranda.
Koh's Room Is the more chaotic of the two. It holds a tiny single bed shoved up against the wall, a narrow closet, a large desk usually cluttered with both work and an odd assortment of accessories meant for pedicures. She also has a gigantic set of drawers and shelves that hold a chaotic collection of photos, books, trophies and nail weaponry. (... really, they're weapons.)
Colorful in the absent minded 'pulled everything together last minute' kind of way, it is dominated by pastel tones and a gigantic pale green shaggy carpet on the floor.
Red's Room Is a lot more collected, and almost professional. A narrow desk and closet, sufficient lighting and a queen sized bed decorated with red and gray sheets. It is quite sparse, resembling more a hotel room than a lived in bedroom. A recent addition to the room however, is the gigantic lock on the veranda door and on his closet door... which doesn't seem to work in keeping Koh out.
The veranda Is quiet wide, and holds a hammock and two chairs. Red rarely ventures out onto the veranda and it's really just an extension of Koh's room.
Living arrangements Koh cleans and Red cooks. Or it's supposed to be like that...however, it seems Red cleans and Red cooks. And Koh just... tells him if he's missed a spot.

5. RP examples
1. The first is a sample RP with Koh, and a mention of Red. It was used to answer a prompt for the rp manager application. RP Manager Application Koh frowned as rubbed at her eyes. Yesterday had not gone well AT ALL and Red was still so angry that she had managed to get into his room... like there were any secrets between a weapon and his technician! In fact, it bloody hurt that he had kicked her out, and then had locked the door.... the main door AND the veranda door. So it was no wonder that she was still sulking, and thus not really paying any attention to where she was going. After all, who cared? Her life was over! Insert dramatic whine here.
Turning the knob and pushing the door open with her weight, she stumbled, almost tripping over a pair of rubber flipflops that were a little bit too big for her feet: but they had been a necessary indulgence. The bright green shade matched her watermelon patterned toenails perfectly, and she had attached matching black beads to the straps of the sandals to mimic watermelon seeds. Focusing only on making sure that none of said seeds had fallen off, it took her a while to notice the faint snicker that seemed to break the silence.
Who was in class 6 already?
Koh looked around, frowning. Well, this wasn't her classroom. Unless they had converted it to fit a beautiful looking couch, and a pool table with a boy lazily holding onto the cue, and another boy standing slightly behind him, his hand resting protectively over the same cue.
Koh blinked.
Woaaaaaah.
And her eyes widened.
Well, she hadn't known that there was going to be some kind of underground sex club on CAMPUS! And with two good looking boys, no less! And the cue was pointing up suggestively and oh my god was that boy's eyes smoldering at her? Was it an invitation, what the...
"Why are you just staring?" the one in front demanded, unnerved by the completely knowing and slightly perverted expression that was crossing her eyes. "And why... ... are you blushing? Why are you blushing?" his eyes narrowed as he looked to the student behind him. "Lucien, is that girl _drooling_?"
The boy with the smoldering eyes laughed, and there was something so deliciously sexy about the laugh that it made her toes wriggle. Which was bad, because she was wearing sandals. "I think she likes what she sees, Z." he murmured, hand tightening around the cue. "I think she thinks that we're..." his eyes turned to the weapon's, and he arched a brow.
Z stared.
"The WHAT?" he exclaimed, hands dropping the cue. But Lucien was still holding onto it, still tilting it in that suggestive manner that was enough to have Koh blush.
"If I've interrupted." she began.
"He's teaching me a new move to beat Yi in our next match." Zaden said, his eyes narrowing. "You're not one of those girls who think all guys are gay, are you?"
"All beautiful guys." Lucien corrected, and he was laughing. "And for that darling, you should check out room five." he winked, and Koh felt the blush reach new shades of scarlet.
"I'm sorry" she blurted. Well, not really. Hell, this sure beat sulking over Red. Taking a step back, she slammed the door a little bit harder than she should have, and heard the roar of laughter as she did so.
Still...
Her eyes flicked to the side. She had missed room six, and had entered this unfortunately amusing room... maybe she'd come back, later.
Boy, Red needed to see what ELSE students did on campus!

6. Soul Resonance
I think this is going to be something that will be quite challenging due to Red's initial unease with Koh, as she doesn't fit into what he initially believed to be his ideal as a technician partner.
I'm not too confident I really understand how to answer this, because I'm not really sure what can happen, and what can't. However what I'm thinking is the obvious: Red in weapon form will get bigger.
In the wiki entry, it states that a wavy sword really isn't that different from a straight edged sword: it doesn't inflict more damage or less. I'm thinking however, maybe during soul resonance due to the unusual shape, Red might be able to emit different levels of damage? Sort of like a machine gun, as opposed to a shot gun.

7. Reference Photos  Red is going to resemble more the sword in the back, than the front, with the wavy form running through most of his blade length. He is not a graceful looking sword, slightly more unusual and quirky, really. However, he is quite fierce. With a blade that is kept highly polished and a handle that is narrow and slim to fit into Koh's much smaller hands, from his human form personality, you could say that the sword represents the more dominant, serious side of him. Unfortunatly, Koh does like to make fun of him for being wavy, and thinks it's a little bit perverted that something ribbed can be deadly.
