The Colors of a Dragon
Appearance :
Starblade's dressing in deep red and silver suits with thigh-high flat boots and a right wrist bracer with her symbol : a silver star.
This star symbol can also be seen on her choker around her neck.
She prefers cloths over armors for faster and easier mobility.
She wears different pouchs, filled with different devices and tools she might need occasionally, around her waist as well as her deadly katana, which can turn in two blades under her super-powers, on her left hip.
Her cyber-visor's hiding her eyes and noone can tell how they look like.
Her hairstyle's always a simple long one braid which often swings in rythm with her balanced and agile motions.
Personality :
Some misunderstands her quietness for shyness, while it's only humility and politeness, two virtues which are essential in martial art mastery.
She speaks little and when she does, her words are often filled with a deep and asian-like wisdom.
Positive and happy, she often smiles or giggles and always tries to see the good point in every situation. She can also be looked like as the embodiment of the quote :
I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.
When in mission, she's entirely focused and requires the best from her teammates.
She dislikes failures and weaknesses, flaws that always lead to fatal issues, but she'll always encourage others to do their best and to become better.
When out of mission, she's very relaxed and a lot more tolerant... afterall no life is under risks, so she can show her caring and friendly face.
Notes for Mind-readers :
Starblade isn't immune to empathic/telepathic mind-reading but mind-readers might be surprised to feel an empty-like mind.
Like many martial art masters, her mind is attuned to the Kū (read here).
Her emotions are often calm, focused, peaceful and caring. She knows little about anger which is incompatible with the martial art way of life.
She's often thinking about her parents, grandparents, her silver star symbol, spring and children.
The Way of a Dragon
Starblade applies the principle of "I fear not the man who has practiced ten thousand kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick ten thousand times".
Her fighting style is based on simple, repeated but mastered and deadly moves.
Combining kung-fu, karate, iaido, kenjutsu and aikido, she can deliver quickly and with high accuracy repeated deadly hits.
Cunning and adaptative, she uses her katana to slash, knock, pierce or even turn it into double katanas.
Wearing no armors, any blow could wound her easily without her hyper-agility and constant focused mind.
Fast and deadly, her opponents rarely have time to hit her badly enough but in the rare situations it can occur, she calls on the secret art of switching death chi into life chi.
Starblade often starts her fights with a psionic attack, infusing her ennemies' mind with fear and lowering down their attack abilities.
Courageous and relentless, she knows no fear to jump in the middle of many opponents, swinging and spinning her katanas into a storm of slashing winds.
The Path of a Dragon
((Spoiler Warning : metagaming is cheating therefore the following paragraph shouldn't be used without rp acknowledgement.))
Born Rose Morningstar, she'd been taught secretly the martial arts of fighting by her mother and grandmother, all along her childhood.
However the day she was going to achieve her training and to be ordained as a Ryuusei-sama, a terrible fire started and burnt all her family mansion. None of her arts were able to stop the tragedy and, helpless, she witnessed the death of her own parents.
Doubtful, she remained secluded few years with a zen hermit, meditating and refusing to touch or to use her blades anymore... until she received a strange letter telling her that her parents' death wasn't an accident. Months of investigation revealed her the truth and she had no choice but to wield her blades back and avenge her parents. Noone can tell what really happened but some criminals mysteriously disappeared.
Since that, she turned her back from her tragic past, changing her name for Starblade and helping for Justice and Truth.
She remains loyal to her legacy and do her best to honor her parents by her manners, education and deeds.
Days passed, days turned into months, months of heroic deeds, until the unexpectable happened :
The ennemy she thought she had killed had been brought back to life.
This villain had months to prepare herself and plot actively against Starblade.
She killed Rose's parents and Starblade killed her, 1-1 on each side.
Their next confrontation might be the last one... at least for one of them.
