I've been reading all of the battles for a while, and decided that I wanted to take a shot at it.
Rules: The same as posted in the rules thread, no godmodding, powerplaying, etc. And try to stay active as well.
Location: Pretty simple, just an open field at around midday.
My Character:
Name: Sophia
Age:17
Appearance: Sophia is pretty small in stature, only standing at 5'2". She has black hair, always up in a ponytail, and dark blue. Her outfit is a simple black and white t-shirt and dark pants, designed for maximum mobility.
History: Every single member of her family before had been trained to be warriors in some form or another. So when she announced her plans to be a student of books, not swords, her parents were enraged. Her mental abilities would make her a powerful fighter, they told her. But her mind was made up.
Until the day they attacked. Monsterous beasts with immence strength and unbeatable speed ravaged the town where they Sophia and her family were living. The townspeople, including her parents and older brother, were wiped out. She had been spared from the carnage because she was away at a university, studing.
She blamed herself for the destruction of her home and family. If she had trained in the art of the warrior, she would have been there to save them with what her parents called her"godly gift." So with her dead brother's sword in hand and determination in her heart, she set out to become a great warrior in the tradition of her family.
Personality: She can come across as both sweet and polite, and rude and sarcastic, depending on her mood. Most of the time, she is nice, insightful, and resourceful. She is often unsure of herself, but this instability comes out as bold claims and bragging instead of self reflection. Her mouth gets her into most of her fights.
Ability: She uses her psychic powers to both compensate for her lack of muscle and form objects out of mental power. These include barriers and weapons. She uses her skill imaginitively in order to outwit an opponent. She can also hear other's thoughts, giving her a slight edge in reaction time, even if she can't see the opponent.
Weapons: She wields two short swords: one made out of her psychic energy and the other being her brother's sword.
Other: She really likes muffins, especially chocolate chip ones.
Please bear with me, this is my first try at a fight...but don't go easy either!
Also, constructive criticism from non-participants would be greatly appreciated in order to facilitate improvement.
