[OOC] And Now: an App
Character: Sakurazaki Setsuna
Series: Mahou Sensei Negima!
Age: 14
Canon: Mahou Sensei Negima! is, essentially, a shounen fighting manga disguised as a harem comedy. When ten-year-old genius mage Negi Springfield is assigned to teach a class full of teenage girls, you know there's going to be chaos (and fanservice -- this is an Akamatsu Ken work, after all). And that's not even taking into account the fact that half the students aren't normal kids either. Sakurazaki Setsuna is one example; who would suspect that this slender young lady is actually a highly talented swordswoman, with some magical training as well? (Not to mention a unique heritage and some emo in her past -- but such is beyond the scope of this app.)
Trained in the Shinmeiryuu style from a young age, Setsuna has developed into a formidable fighter, all for the sake of her childhood friend, Konoe Konoka. Though she was once aloof and distant, protecting Konoka from the shadows, Setsuna has gradually grown more open and friendly, thanks to her newfound friends' influence. She claims that this protection is simply her duty, but that duty comes from within; it's clear to anyone that Setsuna cares very much for Konoka. Indeed, some suspect that her devotion is born from a love far deeper than friendly affection.
And when I say "some", what I mean is "almost everyone else in class 3-A".
Quick note: one of the spells Setsuna knows allows her to create paper dolls that can take the appearance of people. Like so!
Sample Post:
Tch! I have to concede, your swordsmanship is impressive. The display of Bonetti's Defense was particularly adept. I've never before seen a tentacle wield a blade with such skill. But the battle ends here! My duty is to protect Konoka-ojousama, and I will allow no one to stand in my way! Hyah!
It is done. You were an honorable opponent, but I... Ah. I-I see you had... comrades. Several dozen of them. Understand that ordinarily I would accept your challenge, but finding my charge takes priority over all other matters so if you will excuse me --!
Thank goodness I had that paper doll handy. It should distract them long enough for me to escape. What on earth has happened here? I've faced demon hordes that were less hostile! And more hygienic. Damn... Caught off-guard by that attack, and I lost sight of Konoka-ojousama during the battle... Shameful. If anything happened to her, I could never forgive myself --
And if you toucans don't stop mocking me, I'll never forgive you! Just because a girl may have devoted her heart and her soul to protecting her childhood friend doesn't mean there has to be anything romantic about it! And admittedly that sounded a lot more convincing in my head b-b-but that isn't important right now! I need to...
I need to calm down and relax. Panicking and berating the wildlife will get me nowhere. The first priority is to scout out my surroundings, and try to find a settlement of some sort. Preferably one not populated by the undead. I'll need higher ground... Aha! That tree up ahead... From the top, I'll be able to see almost all the way across the camp. Perfect!
...
Yes, perfect. Provided I ignore the underwear hanging from the branches. Somehow... I'm suddenly reminded of home.
