Hobbies:

Reality TV Watching - Zoe loves her some reality TV. She watches non-reality tv if she finds the actors attractive enough, or the content to be interesting (aka, Criminal Minds, CSI, Supernatural) but her PVR is mostly filled with things like the Amazing Race, America's Next Top Model, Top Chef, Sharktank, etc. Not reality tv like Jersey Shore of Kim and Khloe take over New York. Zoe loves a good compeition, and rooting people on. She'll love a show if her favorite person goes far, or even wins, and will yell at the tv and curse if the people she doesn't like win. It's always a hoot to watch a show with her because she'll get as into it as some typical males and their sport shows.

Blogging/Fanfictions - Other than watching reality tv, Miss Reed loves to blog, and mostly blog about Fanfictions. Yes, she is one of those fangirls about certain actors/characters. Yes, she writes herself into those worlds OR makes the couples she likes in them despite them never being together (or close to together) in the show/book/movie/etc. Yes, all her blogging friends do the same. She keeps it her "dirty little secret" because frankly, people judge about those things.

Playing Games - Zoe loves to play games. Video games, board games, any kind of games. You got it, she'll learn it, and then proceed to try and kick your rear end in it. She gets on fire when she plays games and loves to play all the time, any time. She will probably never say no to an offer of a game.

Challenges - Zoe loves to try to win. She loves to go out and find new hobbies, or things to defeat other people in. Marathon? Yeah, she'll throw herself into it last minute and try to beat you all. Hot Dog eating contest? She'll totally attempt to kill her stomach to beat you. Any challenge, any game, any competition, she's there, she's in your face, and she'll let you know that she can beat you (even if she can't). Doesn't matter what it is, she'll try and get it done. Yes, even a drag race. She's just that into challenges.

Virtues:
Loyal -- Zoe is loyal to every friend and family member. She'll have your back no matter how deep you get in it. One phone call to her means one phone call to a person who cares for you, and yes, will come bail you out of jail. She won't ask why you called her, but she will ask why the hell you did this! And no matter what happens, you will still be friends afterwards.

Competitive -- This girl loves games and competitions. It doesn't matter WHAT game or WHAT competition. You wanna see who can stay on silts the longest? Who can spit the furthest? Who can stay awake the longest or play monopoly (at the same time?!) or Risk or video games or poker or etc, etc, etc. She loves playing games, and loves competing. Often she's thought of signing up for different reality shows not for the money or the possible jobs or anything else. She wants to be on them to prove she's the best, and to have fun doing it. She'll pretty much play games with anyone, and very rarely says no to a challenge. She's all about fun, and there is nothing more joyous to her.

Entertaining -- Zoe's life is full of crazy moments because she's the loyal, dependable person. Every phone call she gets from a friend is just another wild story to be told later. She loves to entertain and there is hardly a dull moment when she's around other people. Since she's always willing for a challenge, or a crazy night bailing friends out of trouble, you know she's ready to party hard. At the least to make sure you're okay.

Flaws:

Boastful -- Zoe likes to win, and she loves to trash talk. At the start of something she'll tell you that she'll be winning, and mean every word of it. Considering her competitive nature she's won a lot of things, and so she doesn't see it so much as boasting as it is just generally telling it how it is. Trash talking is fun and just apart of the game, and she typically doesn't trash talk unless some sort of competition is going on. She can take it a bit far sometimes, and a lot of people typically find it annoying. Zoe just doesn't understand why though.

Naive -- Despite her age, Zoe trusts people with ease. She's loyal and expects people to be loyal back to her. She gets in situations she shouldn't be in. She's trust your word up front, and get stabbed in the back because of it. She doesn't see back stabbing coming, and always sees the best in people to an extreme fault. For awhile her own parents thought she was a problem child, until they realized she was just friends with the problem children and getting dragged along. And she refuses to dump those friends. She just doesn't get it. She always has to see the good in people.

Socially Awkward -- Zoe isn't your typical social person. She's never won popularity contests, nor has she made very many friends. It has a lot to do with her competitive nature, and how she prefers to play games or watch tv or write fanfics then go outside and hang out like normal people. She has to have something going on, sitting around and talking just doesn't do it for Zoe. She would much prefer to be playing games or watching some tv. She may be loyal, but she doesn't play well with others always.

PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION

Eyes: Pale green eyes, round doe eyed

Hair: Golden blonde, one long thick braid down to her ankles with framing face bangs. For a better example see senshi sketch below, just minus the vines!

Face: Heart shaped face with no freckling, and a small beauty mark on the outside of her right lower eyelid. Just above the cheek bone. Average, not too thick, not too thin lips with a small nose.

Clothes: Just simple tan slacks with converse in an acid green color. Dark green t-shirt under a simple grey jacket with simple silver hoops. Jacket could be a track jacket, or just something simple. Not very picky. More on the comfortable side of things than anything else.

ON THE CIVILIAN:

You have a solid concept here, but I really recommend adding a bit more (such as another flaw) to make sure you really round Zoe out. You don't have to do it, but it will definitely make her more competitive in a contest! We want to know as much about your character as you can cram inside our form. Along those lines, I encourage you to add more hobbies as well. The ones you have are great, but by only listing two, you are missing out on an opportunity to really distinguish your character and to make her stand out in a crowd of other quests.

ON THE SENSHI:

The concept here is also good! You just need to add a few more parameters onto it to get that stamp. Make sure you put in the total number of times she can summon her vines per stage as well as a total duration that they last if someone does not break free of them. How does she direct the attack? Can it be dodged? Just add a few more details so other RPers would know how to react to the attack. The same goes for her super-level.

For her eternal attack, please add the duration! Since this is an attack that can totally immobilize someone, it should probably not last more than 30 seconds.

This is just about good to go, with a few comments!

All of her hobbies are pretty much things that can keep her inside, away from others, if you can add in some sort of aspect to them that encourages her to interact with others, it might help her RP prospects a lot! Perhaps she always goes to public viewing of her favorite shows? Drop-in tournaments and games at the community center?

ATTACKS: These are fine, though I would like to point out that a stage three or four character has incredibly increased strength and would likely have less trouble breaking free of her scout and super attacks. Since there's no specification of rank in the description, I simply wanted to point that out.

Feel free to quote me when you respond and/or make changes, and I'll come through here and slap a stamp on ya!

approved.
