Talise Kaminari (Hurricane)

Talise was my very first character for FFS, as such, I was super nervous that she would suck.  I spent a very intensive week creating her.  She's still my favorite character of FFS and a tie with Talonfire for favorite overall.  She's defintely more fun to sim, but Talonfire is more fun to write.  At this point I was pretty tired of having to come up with chracter pictures, so I made it easy on myself this time by basing her apperance on  Karura, a very cool chick from the anime RGVeda.

Character Name: Talise Kaminari

Applicant's Screen Name: HaramisLT

Real First Name(Optional): Emily

Character's weapon: A lance called "Ocean's Wind" It's shaft is made of a blue metal with a decoration in gold and set with a couple of aquamarines near the spearhead. The spearhead is 3-sided with one 2-sided blade and another attached to it vertically. Besides that she carries a blue-handled dagger at her waist.

Character's Limit Breaks(Name and describe Four):

1) Breakers--Calls up several waves that slam into a single opponet repeatedly.

2) Dolphin Cry--Summons a dolphin which slaps around a single opponet for damage and then as it disappears slaps another opponet in the face with its tale.

3) Mermaid--She sings a short song, which froms a water bubble around one opponet. It freezes them from any action and quickly suffocates a lesser opponet. A stronger one might be able to break the spell.

4) Ocean's Blood--She jams her lance into the ground causing a tidal wave to build up and destroy everything in it's path, as it recedes back to her it restores her own health.

Character's Special Skill: She is the last aquamancer and can control water fairly well, not to mention she's an excellent swimmer and has natural grace and agility. Being raised in Cosmo Canyon she was taught survival skills and directional skills because lost children could be a problem if they weren't taught early on how to take care of themsleves. Besides that she's a pretty good fighter with Ocean's Wind.

Character's Personality: She can be warm and friendly, with a deep devotion to those she calls friends. She has a wicked sense of humor and loves playing jokes on people. There is a definite sense of whismy to her, but is tempered by the tragedy in her life. Sometimes a certain sadness filters through her eyes and she becomes quiet, but she does her best to limit the amount of time she spends mourning her losses and to control the anger she feels as a result of them. She is usually serious in battle, but not above mocking an enemy that seems a little ridiculous. For the most, she concentrates on enjoying her life as it is and finding happiness in whatever form it comes.

Brief History of the Character: ("Brief"? I know no brief. Brief is for the weak). Talise is originally from Cosmo Canyon. Her parents believed firmly in the need to study planet life and the necessity of protecting it from Shinra, especially since her mother came from Junon and knew that the city's pollution had destroyed the ocean life there. They raised thier two daughters, Talise and Sierra, to always remember the planet and its spirit were things to be cherished and held sacred. When she was 17, her parents were killed in a cave-in while they were exploring a new part of the canyon. She was shocked but she knew that she would get over it in time; she wasn't so sure how her 8-year-old sister would do without a mother at her age. She talked it over with elders and decided to take what money her parents had and move her and her sister to Costa Del Sol where hopefully the sunny atmosphere and change of environment would keep her from having too many negative memories or suffering from too much giref. Talise took to raising her sister herself and being the best mother she could be given that she also had to deal with her own grief. Eventually they adjusted and were well settled into their life when an old man approached her in the marketplace. He kept insiting that she had the potential for great power. She easily escaped him in the market, but when he kept bothering her she finally got curious enough to ask what he meant. He explained to her that he had studied a lost art called "aquamancy" and that he sensed a potential for it in her. She agreed to learn from him after he demonstrated his basic understanding and contol of water. It turned out she was adept at it and split her days looking after her sister and training her new found power. The man, known as Kangi, also trained her with a lance because he insited that she know how to protect herself physically as well. He promised that one day this would pay off. Kangi kept his promise, and when she reached the end of her training, he gave her Ocean's Wind and told her that with it she would have both the power of magic and the strength of a weapon. By this time Talise was 23, and Sierra was 14. They were still living day to day in Costa Del Sol, not really worrying about anything. Talise would spend her days catching fish or giving local kids training in fighting for extra gil. Her sister attended school and hung out with her friends like a normal teenager. This all changed, however, in one awful day.  Talise went up the coast for the day to try fishing for a slightly different variety. Sierra declined because she had plans with her friends. When Talise returned she found Costa Del Sol ravished. She ran to the beach where her sister was supposed to be hoping to find that it somehow been missed. It hadn't. She buried Sierra and swore revenge. A few of the survivors told her that a set of cyborgs calling themselves Landslide had come through causing destruction on thier way to somewhere else and had gone across the ocean. She packed up the few belongs that she needed or meant something to her and then made her way to Junon and eventually followed their trail to NeoMidgar. She arrived right after it's fall. There she eventually met up with Hurricane and joined to better help destroy the monsters that had killed her sister.

Description of the Character: She is about 5'7. Her eyes and hair are pale ice blue with her eyes being a shade darker than her hair. She wears her bangs tapered to her ears and pulls back sections of hair from behind her ears to be held in a gold dolphin clip centered at the back of her head. The rest of her hair hangs about to her waist. Her face is pretty enough, and people have described her as beautiful. Around her neck she wears a gold necklace set with an aquamarine that belonged to her grandmother. Her clothing consists of a loose, short-sleeved white dress over which she wears a blue corset. This keeps her dress on tightly and is tied on by a long white sash around her waist. On her arms she wears blue metal forearm guards; they are padded on the inside with white cloth and are decorated in the same gold and aquamarine pattern that is on Ocean's Wind. These match the guards that cover her legs from just below her knees to her ankles where they fit snuggly against her white shoes. She often wears a white cloak over this for either warmth or disguise. On her back she wears a white pack that carries her few possesions and has a leather loop and cover for her lance. (For anyone who doesn't know yet, her appearance is based on Karura from RGVeda. Yes, I have a pic ;D)

Why do you want to be this character?: I think it would be fun to sim and RPG as her. I put a lot of work into creating her (Try 4 long days, including extra hours playing the game and doing research, and annoying my friends for thier opinions. Well.. okay the game was just fun), and I think she'll be an interesting addition to the team.
