Name: Kylie
Nicknames/Titles N/A
Age: 250
Age Appearance: 17
Race: Youkai
Gender: Female
Appearance: Kylie's long blonde hair is tied into a thin ponytail that goes all the way down her back. Her icy blue eyes show loneliness, but also seem to have a faint glow within them that shows the power she has gained over two-hundred years. Not to say anything like that they'd shine through darkness, but when you look closely at them, you just might think you see a faint blue glow deep within them. She is about five feet and four inches tall, somewhat pale, and has a very thin frame, which she typically wears a blue kimono over.
She appears completely human. If asked, she will usually say she is as well. The only thing telling her apart from a normal human is her natural ice power, and her age. The ice power is easily explained as being normal magic, and the age really can't be told by looking at her.
Personality: The most obvious feature of her personality is that she tries to avoid being close to people. She is afraid that she'll cause harm with her uncontrollable power, and often seems shy, jumpy, or even occasionally just plain rude. However, though she sometimes enjoys being alone, the truth is that being alone all the time... It gets old. Or rather, outright depressing, and occasionally, she will break down and let someone get close to her.
Kylie does not lose her temper easily, nor is it easy to scare her. Which are both good things, considering what happens if she is put into either of these states... However, she does have little restraint when it comes to things that irritate her, and if someone is being really annoying she tends to release that frustration by splashing them with water before she reaches the point of anger where she'll catch on fire.
Likes: Swimming, Being alone, Soft music
Dislikes: Fire, Large crowds, her curse and the one who gave it to her, loud noises
Greatest Fear: Her own power, given to her by some twisted curse. Specifically, a fear that she'll harm innocent people with it.
Ambitions/Desires: To eliminate the curse she has been given
Weapons: Kylie carries no weapons with her, but she is somewhat skilled at unarmed combat and she is able to use water and ice magic.
Abilities and Fighting Style: In addition to being able to manipulate and freeze existing water, she is able to conjure spheres of water and small shards of ice to throw at her enemies like streams of Danmaku. If an enemy gets too close, she can knock them away with martial arts. When she becomes angry or afraid, she'll burst into flames and attack with the fire, but she cannot at all control the flames if she is more afraid than angry.
Spells:
Drowning Sign~ Unforgiving Wave
A number of small water balls fly through the air from all directions, and converge in a single spot. Any one of these can easily drag the average opponent with it towards where they gather into a single huge ball, which will envelop and constrict any within it. The water pressure in the large sphere is considerable, enough to cause physical pain and minor bruising, though not serious damage. After thirty seconds, the ball of water seems to explode, most likely leaving the half-drowned victim helpless to counter or avoid any further attacks for several seconds.
Lake Sign~ Geyser Paradox
When Kylie activates this spell card on land, it will cause the ground for fifteen feet around the target to turn into a pond. There is warning of this however, five seconds before the true effect activates, the ground will turn to mud if it's soft like dirt, or crack if it's a harder substance like rock. After the pond appears, it will immediately turn into a whirlpool, sucking in anything that touches it for fifteen seconds. Afterward, it will release all of the water in a HUGE high-pressure geyser which shoots about one hundred yards into the air. After another fifteen seconds of this, the geyser and everything disappear, leaving the ground exactly as it was before the spell.
Alternatively, Kylie can activate this spell card on an existing body of water, turning it into a whirlpool and geyser. It is exhausting to attempt this on a large body of water such as the Misty Lake however, and she will fall unconscious afterward if she does so.
Freezing Sign~ Diamond Dust
Kylie sends small shards of ice in all directions. They then circle around the intended target for some time in a spherical pattern twenty feet around them, before suddenly shooting to pierce them. This can be dodged, as they pierce in a straight line from there, but if the target doesn't avoid the full effect... Ouch. After the shards shatter upon impact with each other, they form an icy tornado of tiny, sharp shards of ice, which lasts for about ten seconds.
Mist Sign~ Crystal Prison
A fifteen foot wide circular wall of fifty foot tall icicles erupts from the ground around the opponent. Then, ice forms connecting the sharp point of every icicle together, forming it into a cage. The air within rapidly drops in temperature to below zero as a mist of extremely tiny ice shards forms. These shards are incredibly sharp, and will cut anything they touch, including your eyes and even your lungs if you inhale them. In another five seconds, a second circle of icicles will erupt, ten feet from the center, though these are spaced enough to walk through. And after another five seconds, a third circle, this time five feet wide, once again in the center.
At this point, you're in for a lot of pain if you didn't escape, as thin lines of ice will suddenly appear connecting the tips and bases of every icicle to each other, and then more lines will connect all of those lines. These will shoot through you if you're in the way, and unless you're under six inches tall, you're not going to be avoiding them all. Afterward, the entire cage of icicles shatters into more mist shards, which will cause at least minor pain for everything within one hundred feet. If you're in the center of this, it will be yet again incredibly painful, as the shards explode at high velocity. The icy mist will then slowly fade.
This is a powerful spell card, and as such, it comes at a considerable price. Kylie cannot move while it is in effect, nor stop the effect, even if the opponent breaks out of the cage. In addition, after using this, she will be exhausted, unable to fly or use any other spellcards for five minutes. She also cannot use this more than once every two hours, and using it three times in one day will render her unconscious.
Anger Sign~ Inferno Spread
Kylie sends a very wide wave of flames flying out in front of her. After about ten seconds, this explodes, and anything it touched and caught on fire will feel the blast. She unleashes this attack when she is set on fire through anger.
Fear Sign~ Burning Life
Kylie randomly shoots small bursts of fire in all directions. This is likely to hit enemies, allies, and everything else in the way that doesn't dodge. She unleashes this attack only when she's completely terrified.
Overload Sign~ Meltdown
Kylie... Explodes. Well, not quite. The explosion is centered on her location anyway. Everything within a very large radius takes insane amounts of damage... Including her and her allies. After this activates, she will be knocked unconscious. This only happens when her terror reaches as high as it can get, and the flames it generates do as well. Anger alone cannot cause this.
Strengths: Complete control over water and ice.
She gains strength when submerged in water, though simply being wet will have negligible effect. She will have much more energy and be able to think more clearly, avoiding becoming angry or afraid. Any part of her that is injured and submerged in the water will heal rapidly, at a visible rate, though this cannot heal broken bones or even sore ankles. If she is unconscious from using too powerful a spell, exploding, or going too long without swimming, then she will be revived.
Immune to cold and drowning.
Weaknesses: Kylie is absolutely terrified of fire, and whenever she sees any, she rapidly becomes panicked, uncontrollably lashing out with . Making this phobia even worse, she bursts into flames whenever she is angry or afraid. This causes a sort of self-destructive loop, which often ends in an explosion that harms allies and enemies alike, and even harms herself. However, an interesting note... It is possible (albeit incredibly difficult) to trigger a berserk rage where she will feel no fear of anything whatsoever. Since she'll only explode when she is terrified, not angry, she ironically will not explode until she calms down slightly. Once she is calmed down however, the flames will still be there, and her terror will soon reach levels that shall cause the explosion to happen.
Kylie absolutely needs to go swimming every once in a while. After about a day without being submerged in water, she'll become slightly irritable, after another two days she'll become extremely short tempered and will shout at anyone who tries to talk with her. After a full week, she'll begin losing energy and tire more easily. If she somehow goes without being submerged in water for an entire month, she will go into a totally catatonic state, unable to do anything.
Kylie is afraid to get close to people, for fear of harming them with uncontrollable flames if something happens. Therefore, she seems nervous and jumpy, or occasionally just plain rude when talking to people, trying to keep them away from her so she doesn't harm them. She absolutely refuses to go anywhere near the Human Village or similar populated areas.
History: Kylie doesn't remember her childhood. Her earliest memory is of watching a house, presumably her own, burn to ashes, while she cried and cried. She was five years old at that time. She wandered, lost for some time after that, until someone found her. Another girl, who was about fifteen years old.
It turned out, the other girl, whose name was Yukiko, wasn't from Gensokyo. She had come here only about a year ago, and was a rather skilled water mage, considering her age. Kylie immediately liked Yukiko after finding out only this much. She naturally had that kind of magic, and thought that she would have to be best friends with anyone else who used it, with her simple, childish mind.
Kylie and Yukiko did end up getting along great. They protected each other, and they both learned how to handle their power better together. Yukiko didn't actually mind taking care of Kylie, she had actually been lonely. The two of them were both like little kids really. Both of them lived with barely a care in the world.
Eventually, they ended up going their separate ways, they couldn't be kids forever. Kylie was about fifteen years old herself by now, and Yukiko was twenty-seven (and still amazingly immature for her age) However, after both of them wandered for a little while, they both ended up at the same place again. Both of them found a lake, not far from the Human Village.
Both of them actually ended up deciding to live near the lake. Neither one realized that the other was there at first, they lived on opposite sides, but once they did, both of them treated it like some sort of game. They were both on their own, but could visit each other at any time.
People knew they were there. Actually, people knew that both were powerful ice mages, but everyone thought they were crazy. One day, a stranger came by and visited Kylie, while she was alone. He said, "I want you, and your little friend Yukiko to do something for me." No introductions, no explanation of who he was. He continued, "The two of you, are to help me destroy everyone in the Human Village!"
Kylie was confused at why anyone would want such a thing. However, she was also angry at this man, who wanted to do something so vile. "I don't think so!" she shouted and began summoning ice shards. The man just stood there. "What a defiant child you are. We'll have to fix that!"
He just stared straight into Kylie's eyes. Kylie felt something change within her. Then... That glow! That was "AH! FIRE!!!" she cried. She became more and more panicked, as the fire randomly went everywhere, and seemed to become brighter and brighter. It didn't burn much though...
The strange man simply laughed, and walked out. Kylie became angry! Who was that man, toying with her like this?! The fire around her flared more and more. Then... Nothing. Nothing but the flames, the agony, the brightness. Then... Darkness. And again, brightness. She opened her eyes, and looked around her. She was in the middle of a huge blackened spot on the ground. "Wha... What?!" she cried, alarmed. Suddenly, she saw the glow of fire again "Aahh... AAAAHH!!!" she let out another scream.
The flames flared up again, and again, and further. Kylie became more and more terrified. She randomly threw fire everywhere, as she randomly flew around. She needed to get away from it! Eventually, she landed in the lake. Steam rose up around her, but she started calming down now that there was no actual fire. She started thinking about what was going on. That man must have cursed her!
The water around Kylie started steaming and boiling again. It wasn't actually fire though, so she didn't panic. She just took deep breaths to calm herself, and focused on calming herself. It wasn't easy, but she managed to control it before the entire lake was reduced to a puddle.
Kylie then remember Yukiko! Was she okay? ...The answer could not be told. Yukiko had disappeared. When Kylie went to Yukiko's house, she found absolutely nothing. Not even the house itself... Nor a black spot on the ground. Kylie slumped to the ground devastated. I'll kill that- No! She stopped the thought, and took deep breaths to calm herself. Having that fire come again would be bad...
For the next... Considerably over two-hundred years, she has essentially wandered around, trying to figure out how to master her fear and anger. She only dreamed about finding the one who gave her this curse... Until she finds an eerie clue that he indeed may still be alive as well... Now, she believes that she may actually be able to find him and kill him.
