Haven; Lourdes;Meister
Name: Lourdes Haven
Nickname: Lou
Age:16
Gender: Female
Race: Meister
Position: Student
Class:One Star
Partner:
A Strong Body
Picture:
Appearance: Lou has extremely long dark brown hair down to her lower back. Her bangs are a light pink color and on occasion, she braids her hair to keep it from getting in her way during missions. Lourdes is very small for her age and looks about 2-3 years younger than she really is. She has a few piercings on her body, most notably are her tongue ring and piercings all along her ears well into the cartilage. She has a tattoo on her wrist with her brother Damien’s name on it. Damien has a matching tattoo with her name on it.
Her body type is very small and slender. She has like no muscles at all but does have a forming six pack. Her eyes are a unique purple that seem to glow whenever she smiles. They often charm people but also become steely when she is angry or scared. Her clothing style is more like a mature teenager. She loves wearing dresses with a black bolero shrug and black flats. When she is on missions, her outfit usually consists of a pair of jeans and a tight-fitting shirt. Because of an event in her childhood she has long scars along her arms from being in a car accident as a child. She usually hide them with arm-warmers and long-sleeved shirts
Height: 4ft 9in
Weight: 105lbs
Fighting Style: Her fighting style is a bit complicated. She knows a lil bit of Wing Chun that was taught to her by her older brother who mastered it when she was quite young. But she prefers to use a variation of this, boxing and ballet movements. She will dodge using her skills in ballet and often strike using her fist to their pressure points
Personality: Lourdes is a bit of a sweetheart. She is kind and gentle but a bit hard to handle. She is often gung-ho about things and seems to want to try just about everything. She is curious about things but is also wary of things because of what may happen.
When she is in battle Lou is a completely different person. She is calculating and calm. She is constantly looking for an opening and she will often take it without a second thought. This is often a problem because she is also a very compassionate person. She doesn't feel right about killing things but she knows it must be done in order for their lives to continue. She is an extrovert and very friendly to people. She loves meeting new people.
She can be a bit of shy person especially when she has to wear a dress or anything that shows off her arms. She will smile and play off being hurt but in reality, she just wants to cry and run away. She wants to be able to open herself up completely with her partner because she will trust them with her life. She just hopes that they will also respect that she has some secrets of her past that she may or may not share with them
Inside the Soul
Abilities:Soul Purge: Lourdes' Soul Purge combines Wing Chun and her gymnastics and ballet training. She will usually spin using her ballet form and within seconds, strike using Wing Chun and force her wavelength into her opponent. When she uses this, her fist glows a light green color for a few seconds
Resonances:If you have a partner and resonance list and give a brief description of it/them here.
Out of your Mind
Strengths: Fast, Calculating, Flexible
Weaknesses: Not as strong physically, Low defense, Poor endurance
Hobbies:Practices ballet and gymnastics, listening to music, star-gazing
Likes: Star-gazing Ramen Cooking to improve her skill Traveling Hello Kitty Dislikes: Bigots Being called short People who underestimate her Being labeled a freak because she knows and understand ASL and Spanish Untrustworthy people Aspirations: To make her brother acknowledge that she is better than him History: Lou grew up in a relatively interesting house. Her mother was deaf and mute and her father was Spanish so she grew up with not just Spanish but ASL and Spanish sigh language. Though her father spoke mostly Spanish, he knew how to speak English extremely well. As a result, Lou and her older brother knew English as a seconds language by the time they were both five years old. Lou's older brother Damien is also deaf but luckily Lou wasn't the same. She was born normal and likes to keep in contact with Damien. Lourdes and her family are from a small country by the name f Belize in Central America. She has lived there more of her life and lived there up until the time she was about 6 years old.
Around the age of 6, she and her parents were in a terrible car accident. As a result, her parents were killed and Lourdes received these long scars that extended from her elbow to her wrists. From that point on Damien began taking care of her. With him being 10yrs older than her, the two of them had few others to rely on. So Damien got accepted into the Shibusen as a meister and he moved himself and Lourdes into Death City. In the meantime while he was attending school and going on missions, Lourdes would stay with a friend of Damien's. Lourdes blamed herself for the accident and as a result realized she needed to do things to keep her mind off of her family. So she enrolled in gymnastics, along with ballet which she took to easily as it gave her the structure she needed at the time.
Unfortunately with her being an orphan, she was introverted and didn't know how to express her feelings as easily as others. So whenever she would get angry, she would end up fighting with the children around her neighborhood as an outlet for her anger with herself. Damien heard of this and thought that boxing would be a good outlet for her to get out her anger with the world without having to hear about her fighting other children all of the time. Boxing was difficult for Lourdes to learn bit she eventually got the hang of it. Damien himself knew Wing Chun and showed her a few moves. Eventually since Lou pestered him enough about it, he began taking her to lessons and sparing with her after each sessions so she would keep her teachings. Lou was slow to learn Wing Chun, but with enough practice, and patience she learned it and is still working to master it. All of this training continued until she was about 15.
One of the kids from her boxing class began to pick on her after class and tried goading her into fighting. Lou wouldn't fall for it and just tried to ignore him. The boy got tired of being ignored and he punched her in the face. Lourdes took about two more of these shots before she fought back. Damien had told her under no circumstances are you to fight unless you deem it necessary. By the third punch, Lourdes was bleeding. So when the boy went to strike her again, she dodged using her agility acquired through her ballet. She then spun around and in a moment of anger, struck the boy in back with her palm as a green light emitted from her palm. The boy sank to the ground clutching his back as the other children looked on in wonder. Lou stared at her hands in shock as she ran home. She told Damien of what had happened as his eyes widened. "Where in the world did you learn that?" he asked her in sign language. She just shook her head and said she didn't know. Damien smiled and told her what it was called and that by going to the Shibusen, she could learn to master it and control it. And a year later, she was enrolled in Shibusen
Extra Notes:She thinks sloppy makeouts are weird. Plus, she loves flowers and often smells like lavender
Behind the strings
Alias: Djinji
Other characters: What other characters do you play?
Face Claim:Rose Thomas from Full Metal Alchemist
RP Sample: It was a clear and beautiful night, one that hasn't been around in almost a month. The sky was clear and the weather was perfect. The stars were finally out and shining so brightly that Lourdes could almost feel their energy. Lou was lying down on a blanket in the middle of a park at about 10pm. This was about the only time at night she could escape and see the star this clear. With ease, she traced all of the stars and formed their constellations with her fingers almost like a symphony.
Linkin Park was blasting in her ears as she tried her best to relax. Today had been another trying day as usual. Unlike most others in her grade or school, she had yet to find a weapon partner. Lou has always in a sense felt alone in this world yet as of late, the feelings of loneliness crept farther and farther into her body as they threatened to consume her. "Am I ever going to have a partner?" she whispered to the sky as in a plea. Of course the stars didn't respond, how could they? Maybe Lou was just losing her touch with reality, speaking to star really?
Yet almost a second later Lourdes saw a shooting star as it streaked across the sky almost in the blink of an eye. Lou was afraid to blink, because if she did the star would disappear. So as quickly as she could, she made a wish for her partner to be revealed to her. When she opened her eyes, the shooting star was gone. Lou chuckled cynically, of course the wish won't come true. "You're 16 now Lourdes, wishes don't really come true" she sang softly. Lou smiled to herself and then glanced beside her where her older brother Damien sat staring at the same stars. Damien glanced at her as he smiled. "Did you make a wish?" he signed to her as Lou nodded. "Yep, but I don't need a wish. I"m already content with you here with me" Lou signed black to her brother. Damien's smile widened as he rubbed Lou's head in a childlike way. Lou smiled back as her gaze returned to the stars and her secret wish for her partner

Some things need to be tweaked but overall you have a good character here. So let’s see what needs to be edited. Appearance: Please extend this to be at least 200 words. Add what color her hair is to help with this. Weight: Please bump her weight up to around 105-110. If she is going to be a one star she’ll need to be at least average weight. Please just remove the weapon information as it is not relevant. Soul Purge: This won’t change the color of her eyes. Adding that it is of average strength would also be good. Strengths/Weaknesses: Your strengths are good, weaknesses not so much. Not physically strong is good but her other two are not, at least in terms of combat. Please replace these with two weaknesses that will affect her in combat. History: Alright this is where we need to work on some things. - How did she learn English? -Where is she from? -Are you saying her father was a kishin egg leading up to his attack? Kishin aren’t the most sensible creatures so that sort of planning isn’t very likely. - Firstly please remove the whole thing with Sid and Nygus. Do not include canon characters in your history. - Why would Sid or anyone be there to save her? If her dad was a kishin prior he probably would have gotten a student team sent after him and not be at home. If he turned there no one would know he even existed as a kishin. -How did she discover she could use soul purge? -How did she get herself and her brother to Death City? How did she enroll without any parents helping her? -Why does she know all these different skills? Wing Chun, boxing, ballet, and gymnastics? Who taught her these? How proficient is she in each? Rp Sample: I would suggest using a text color for her speech to make it more noticeable. Passwords: You are also mission a password. Please check the rules and character rules.

Just a few more little tweaks to get everything in order. Appearance: Just change the part about the scars, you still have the previous version. Strengths/Weaknesses: These are still unbalanced as we are looking for battle constants. My suggestion would be to remove resilient from her strengths and replace it with flexible as it matches her gymnastic information. Then for weaknesses add low defense because with her weight she isn’t going to tank much. For a third weakness look at this list for ideas {Weaknesses }History: This looks much better just a few more tweaks. -Please switch DWMA to Shibusen as that is the title of the school in the manga. -She probably wouldn’t be teased much for being an orphan. This is Death City where people go and fight monsters on a regular occasion, there are probably quite a few orphans. -Just a note, she would be alright maybe even adept at all of her skills (Wing Chun. Boxing, Ballet, Gymnastics). With so many she may have some skill with all but she isn’t going to be exceptional in any. Rp Sample: This is more a misunderstanding. For color you should use it on just when a character speaks to help differentiat it from the rest of the words ”Like so”.
