Mundane Information
Character's Name: Fuzen Kaimu [Soukei Karei]
Name Meanings: Partial Nothing [Total Beauty]
Race: Human
Age: 14
Zodiac Sign: Scorpio
Virtue: Compassion
Vice: Secretiveness
Personality: Kaimu is a very quiet, unobserved girl that seems to fade into the background of any scene. She is attractive, but appears meek and submissive. There appears to be a great sadness in her eyes that belittles a curiously bright glow that resides there. If it weren't for her sad countenance, she might end up living a truly happy life.
At her core, Karei is a kind and gentle girl who will protect those she cares about with every fibre of her being. She is a happy-go-lucky outgoing girl always wearing a smile even when things are definitely not going her way.
Physical Information
Height: 5'5"
Weight: 117lbs
Hair Color: Fiery Pink, almost red
Eye Color: Icy Blue
Appearance: Kaimu is a slim girl with subtle hints of muscle. She is a very plain girl that does not stick out in any aspect. Her bleached blonde hair is tied back into a bun which lets her plain, but attractive face. Her eyes are brown and appear very listless. She rarely smiles, but it is a joy when she does. Kaimu actually appears somewhat depressed.
From the first time anybody lays eyes on Karei it seems impossible that they would look away, double takes excluded. Her short pink hair hangs loosely around her head in spiked arrangements and a couple bangs extend to a little above her eyes; which are icy blue and chill the soul hauntingly. She usually wears an exuberant smile and looks towards everybody as if they were best friends. Karei stands at a height of five foot five inches with an athletic build and does not appear too muscular, although she does carry herself like she could take just about anybody down. Her name means total beauty and it seems they got it right.
Background: Soukei Karei was born to a loving family in Kyoto. Her father ran a local convenience store, Soukei Convenience, with the pledge to give people everything they need (a pun since 'soukei' means 'total'), and her mother was a powerful medium. The latter was the reason for where Karei is today. Aida, her mother, had a history of negotiating peace among spirits, even accomplishing the massive feat of encouraging a hollow to give itself up to rebirth, but there were times when she had to use force and such was the case with two malignant, but also very powerful spirits. Kasai and Koori were two spirits that had high spiritual powers and when they died were extremely pissed off about the way things went. It turned out their powers were related to the elements of fire and ice. Aida in her attempts to soothe them, resolved that the only way to prevent this pair from causing anymore chaos was to seal them within herself. She did.
Then Karei was born and even back then people knew she was different. Her hair was fiery pink and eyes, icy blue, and within her, Aida could sense the presence of Kasai and Koori's spiritual powers. Tuns out, through birth Aida transferred the souls of the now dormant presences. As soon as she was able, she devised a seal and placed it on them. This would have been the end of the matter if it were not for the spiritual powers Karei would soon posses. From her mother she obtained similar powers over spirits and as she grew older she would begin interacting with them just like her mother.
In most people's life they have a significant moment when the world they once knew was no longer an option; for Karei, it happened in a truly devastating way for such a young girl to experience. While dreaming, the girl saw herself standing before two figures one red and the other blue. In her dream the figures were fighting over her and in the waking world her physical body was being wrought with the fire and ice. While fighting ensued in her dream, Karei began to see some kind of symbol and when she reached out to touch it she immediately awoke to find her room frozen but on fire. To put it mildly she was frightened and she screamed out. It was because of that that her father rushed in to find and rescue her. He carried her outside and went back inside to rescue Aida, but Karei never saw them again as the house exploded. With no one left, Karei ran.
She has restarted her life in a new city with a new name and tries to move past the events that led her there. She didn't know that someone had been watching her.
The thing about Kasai and Koori was that they were connected to this greater source of power; some simply called it the 'Source'. For Kasai and Koori it gave them specialized control over the elements of fire and ice. It will be interesting to see how this connection to the source affects Karei.
Items/Tools: Two bracelets, one depicts a ringlet of flames while the other shows a chain of ice.
Powers/Attacks: Ryuuryuuiki (Thriving Spirit) - This ability allows manipuation of the spirit. While a loose term 'spirit', Karei is able to affect souls, granted her spiritual power is high enough. She can turn her physical body into a spirit form and do all sort of other things regarding spirits belonging to either herself or other spirit entities.
*Not powers, but natural abilities.
*Empathy - Karei's natural caring nature gives her talent at sensing people's emotions. To that extent, she is great at comforting people and telling them what they want to hear in order to get a certain emotional reaction.
*Physical Prowess - Not necessarily a power, but Karei is really strong and fast. She is a great fighter and has won a bunch of competitions. It seems that she actually might posses supernatural strength and agility, but it isn't something that Karei has thought about much. With training she could progress even further, but for the time being she can handle herself pretty well.
Why?: Her mother unknowingly passed great spiritual powers, and more, on to Karei when she was born. The true extent of this inheritence has not been witnessed.
