Description

-Edit- New year causes for updates~ so this WHOLE thing is under construction... LOOK OUT!
I'm so sorry that this is crazy long. It was late at night, and I was in such a writing mood XD
_{Name: Erika (Riki/Rikki) Shaiye (pronounced shy)
Gender: Female
Age: 18 19
Height/weight: 5’7” 127 llbs
Weapon: Staff gun (it is also sometimes referred to as a Cannon staff) [link]
- Stands 5’ 9 in comparison to her
- Weighs 15-20 llbs
At its normal stage, or stage 1, it basically has the appearance of an extremely fancily ordained staff. Because the giant flower on top is made of a strong high alloy-steel frame (mainly to protect the bullet holder), it can be used in hand-to-hand combat, though it isn’t recommended because this not only leaves unpleasant blood stains, but at the possibility that it does get a dent, the bullet holder is at risk of locking in place. Thus, it is only used as a last resort or when the bullets have run out. (Besides, can’t the weapons magically fix themselves within the next transformation?)
At stage 2, it is changed into its gun/ cannon form. This is done by pushing down on the trigger to unlatch it and turn it, then slide it down into place where it then latches down. The trigger then flips up and is ready for firing. To fire the weapon, the trigger needs to be pulled back with the whole hand, unlike normal guns where you can use just your index finger.
The bullet case holds about 8 shots with bullets that are 50mm long and explode on impact.

Wish: To travel to different places through her reflection

Other info:
As a child, Erika was rather sheltered. Her overprotective mother believed that nothing but harm would come to her if she left the house. She was almost forced to be homeschooled, but her father (after many weeks of bringing up the subject) convinced his wife to let her go and experience some human interaction other than her parents.
Most of the time, since Erika didn’t want to see her mother, she would stay in her room and read or play strategy games on her computer. She occasionally looked at her mirror and thought Sometimes, I wish I could get out of here just by walking through my reflection. I can pick the place, as long as there is a way I can see myself to get back.
During her second semester of her junior year in highschool, she would leave the house late at night to go to the local bar/club and worked as a waitress. Her father found out, and though he disapproved, he allowed her to continue her job since it was the only “life” she had aside from school (even though her school life wasn’t really that exciting either). After she graduated, she moved out and attended a college far FAR from her mother.
The change in environment and rules caused her to decide for herself how she was going to be. She became extremely independent and rented an apartment with her earnings, and soon found another bar/club to work at. She also decided to change herself between the night and the day and live a double life.
During the daytime, Erika is your average nerd/geek. She rides a bicycle to the university to save gas on her motorcycle. She takes four classes total (calculus, bio chemistry, physics, and photography as an elective), and tries very hard not to sleep during class, but her job is a major contributor to her extreme sleepiness. Her social level is rather low, because she tries to focus more on her studies and take care of those serious matters than fool around. She wears black, square-rimmed glasses, but they are the lowest magnification. She lives alone in a small one room apartment with her Russian black cat, Artemis. Her diet consists mainly of various stir fries. Occasionally she’ll have a classic steak dinner, but she can’t really afford a good porterhouse with her current job.
During the nighttime, her personality totally changes. No, she isn’t bipolar nor possesses some sort of personality disorder, it’s a choice moreover. With all the work she has, she really doesn’t see the need to be talkative and get involved in a lot of activities, when she could do it at night. So, after she finishes her homework and takes a three hour nap, she gets ready for her job as a cocktail waitress. This is where her boring life gets a wakeup call. Her bike stays inside and her glasses are left on the counter. Instead, she leaves her abode on her motorcycle, and cruises to the bar/club she works at. Because of her confidence and occasional flirtiness, she is able to get enough tips to pay the bills (including her “shopping” bills for work) and a little extra for her cat.
As a magi, she is rather strategic. Her staff gun is capable of both long and the occasional short ranged attacks, so she can analyze her attacks beforehand. Also, because of her constant clubbing, her dancing skills have become advantageous in that she can evade enemy attacks better (running with style as she sometimes calls it). While evading attacks, she tries to locate a “sweet spot” on the forlorn, and shoot there until she runs out of bullets. If she fails to kill it when the bullets are out, strategy is thrown out the door, and she starts blindly swinging the staff (back in stage 1 form) at the forlorn.}

Uwah~!! I love her character, she's so cool~!!

I could definitely see her and Kei getting along in one of those good-friends-who-always-insult-each-other relationships XD There's nothing like having someone there to insult whenever you want, and know it's not going to bite you in the ass later~~ XD

Haha, sleeping's a part of her daily routine, eh~? Then she and Kei can (literally) sleep together~! As a wise person once said on a meme that went viral, 'I'm great in bed! I can sleep for days'~ XD

Oh, and of course, welcome to AS~!
