Also here! [Personality] Aqua is very mature for her apparent age. She is probably around 19 or 21 years old, but she acts very much like a young lady. She's polite, respectful of elders, and rarely raises her voice, even when upset. Her voice is rather monotonous, especially while 'on the job', but she isn't afraid to be seen as sentimental or emotional. She can be brutally honest, blunt, but also very encouraging. Aqua is fiercly loyal to her friends Terra and Ventus, however, and is very comfortable teasing them.
Being a powerful mage has it's perks, believe me, and she's no slouch in the strength department, but she is still physically weaker that both her friends; even Ventus is stronger than her in most aspects. She does her best to make up for it all the same, with both agility, flexibility, speed and Magic. Aqua is quite the gymnast; Cartwheels as her default dodge move, and Baton Twirling as her Break Time move.
She has quite a lot of self-confidence and is very self-assured, though she stays humble about it. She never brags nor comes off as arrogant about becoming a master. She has uncompromising faith in her own beliefs, almost to the point where she comes off as arrogant; she assumes she knows what's best for others. Aqua puts great faith in her Master and friends, though it can be a fault at times; (at one point, Ventus tells her that becoming a master has gone to her head), it it also one of her greatest strengths.
Aqua is very similar to Riku in Kingdom Hearts 1, but still different enough to not be a repeated (or in this case original) character type. Where they both come off as very self assured and confident, Riku is the one who comes off as arrogant and brash. It's not ego that pushes Aqua along, but a genuine belief in what she says and that it's the right thing.
For the most part, Aqua is very by-the-book. She follows orders without question, and is in no way a pushover when it comes to talking their way around her own. If she says no, she means no. (Unless you can sneak around.) When Eraqus tells Aqua to keep an eye on Terra, she doesn't pipe up that maybe he's wrong about Terra. That maybe Terra should be given the benefit of the doubt. No, Eraqus' word is law, in a sense, and she blindly follows the order. While the direct notion for her to bring Ventus home was never really given, she is very quick to decide for herself that this was that best option. Ven did not need to do what he needed, was too young and ill-trained, and should go home and stay safe immediately.
She had quite a lack of trust in her friends, despite what is initially shown. Even when Terra and Ventus confront her about her following Eraqus' orders, she never once denies nor puts up a fight. It isn't until she realizes how much Terra is upset that she tries to give an excuse. Ventus may have been right when he accused her of having let her Mastery go to her head.
Aqua relies on Eraqus. A lot. Not only as her Master, but as her guide(book) in a sense. What Eraqus says, she does, no questions asked. So when Eraqus is killed, Aqua is left in a sort of lost limbo. Without the guidance, she isn't entirely sure what to do. Following her heart, though easy in some cases, is a lot more difficult to determine now. When Terra falls to darkness, even after having struggled to defeat him, she follows him blindly, sacrificing herself to return him to the Realm of Light. On the one hand, this was very brave of her; protecting a friend at the cost of herself, while on the other... Not so bright. Terra was dangerous, she was barely able to defeat him initially, and granted she could never know what sort of disasters would come from Terra/Xehanort (possibly into Xemnas).
[Specialties/Abilities]
Here is a complete list. Attacks exclusive to Aqua are:
Spellweaver: Exclusive to Aqua. Utilizes the power of light to hover her Keyblade in midair, attacking enemies with speed as well as enhancing her magic capabilities. As this is a Command Style, Aqua can perform other magic while in this style. The finishing move is a magical spin attack.
Ghost Drive: A high speed Command Style exclusive only to Aqua. It allows her to attack enemies at high speeds while using after-image illusions and tricky movements. The finishing is Aqua circling a certain area before creating a large explosion.
[Affection] Hugging between friends is a-okay. She's a little on the touchy-feely side if she knows you well; IE: ruffling your hair, petting your cheek or shoulder. Anything beyond that might be a little startling.
Kissing out of the blue, unless she knows it's coming and lets it happen, will probably get you a reaction jerk. To the jaw. Just saying.
[Fighting] Fighting yes! Injury, yes! Killing or maiming, well yes, but maybe run it by me first?
[Other Permissions] For now, telepathic characters I would prefer to stay out of her mind. She knows a few things that she sure doesn't want her friends knowing. At least not until she's ready to tell them; if ever.
[Other Facts] Don't threaten anyone in her presence- especially not her friends. Seriously. She's not a Master for nothing.
