Name: Riki Chimoki
Age: 19
Race: Were-cat
Physical Description: Riki has short blond hair and pale blue eyes. Her skin is mildly pale as well, though she tans easily. She's around 5'8, so mildly tall, and wears loose fitting clothing for easier movement. As she taps into her were-cat side, her eyes turn more hazel/yellow and her pupils turn into feline slits. When she takes on her cat form, she is a large black panther.
Personality: For the most part, Riki's a very cheery person. She tries not to let things bother her by making her angry or sad. She does her best to uphold the values she was taught growing up: Honesty, Friendship, Knowledge, Humility, Strength, and Confidence. She is constantly trying to improve herself by her mistakes, and has no problem with making a joke of herself in such instances.
History: Riki was born and immediately sent to train with a small band of ninja. She was taken in and raised in a fashion that would make her good at combat, but better at dispersing conflict before it became heated. She was found to have a special ability over illusions, and her instructors made an attempt to teach her control over this raw power. However, she was banned from further use of it after an incident that resulted in the death of most of the ninja. She doesn't remember much of it, and is now only rediscovering this power.
After the incident, she was quick to pick up two weapons: the bostaff and poisoned darts. Her remaining instructor taught her everything he knew about human anatomy and poisons and trained her in close hand to hand combat and weapons combat through vigorous sparring matches. However, he was growing old and weary and died shortly after Riki had been announced as completing her training. She now wanders around, struggling to keep the knowledge of the ninja alive.
Abilities:Riki is a were-cat, so she can transform into a feline. For her, she turns into a black panther. Also, she is proficient in hand to hand combat, bostaff, and darts. She works poorly with nunchucks, as she was quick to favor her staff. Along with this, she is also capable of creating illusions. Mirages, false appearance, and the like.
Weaknesses: Riki puts on the facade of being unbreakable, which isn't particularly hard seeing as she's been taught not to cry and how to keep a level head. But she has several internal struggles. For one, she still feels the burden of guilt over her mentors' deaths. She normally has to work hard to overcome the hatred she feels toward herself about the issue, even though she remembers almost nothing of the actual incident. This leads to her other struggle: whether or not to take any more lives. She knows she has been trained to be a killing machine, in sorts, but feels that there has to be a better reason for her knowledge of how to kill others. She normally holds back the final blow in a fight, leaving her opponent fairly messed up but not dead. She will only take another's life if her own life is that greatly endangered.
As for physical weaknesses, she has two. One: Since she is still learning how to use her power, it greatly drains her. However, she has been trained to fight until the end. So she never backs down until she feels the fight is over, once it's started. She's been known to over exert herself on several occasions. This is her second physical weakness.
She knows these are problems of hers that she should fix, especially since over exertion would be bound to lead to her death, but she is still learning and still maintains a certain amount of pride. She doesn't want to be the one that backs out of a fight, even if it means she dies during the fight.
Motto: "No pain no gain."
