Name: Tori
Age: I’ll be 18 in… 19 days. Meh, today’s over. 18 days.
Height: Short… 5 foot, I think?
Personality: I can’t think of anything that isn’t mentioned below… Anyway, I’m horrible at describing myself. I have a very fluid personality that I myself don’t understand half the time.
Strengths: Determined, loyal, intelligent, mature, well-read, strong, creative, caring, intuitive, devoted to those I care about, a good listener, generous, inquisitive, a good judge of character, rational, just, mildly psychic, good at manipulating others, adept at psychoanalysis
Weaknesses: Moody, short-tempered, perfectionist, low self-esteem, paranoid, I have an anxiety disorder, I procrastinate, I zone out a lot, prone to bouts of apathy, obsessive-compulsive tendencies, manipulative, I don't like sharing people I care about, poor social skills, judgmental, I seem cold, oddly competitive
Bad Habits: Forgetting that someone is there, reading in the dark, sitting on cold floors, eating way too much (yet I never gain weight…), chewing on anything that gets near my mouth (pens, jewelry, fingers, etc.), hiding in my room, staying up all night, criticizing myself, obsessing over things I can’t figure out
Likes: Ancient civilizations, math, rain, anime, acting, sarcasm, fantasy, magick, cheesy old movies, food, philosophy, psychology, trivia, writing, mythology, vampires, manga, animals, books, music, fire, sharks, the smell of woodsmoke, psychological horror, when I know something no one else does, challenge, logic puzzles, chocolate, serial killers, learning

Hobbies: Acting, writing, singing, magick, psychoanalysis, making icons, logic puzzles, trivia games, joining stamping communities, watching anime, baking, reading, studying (certain topics - history, mythology, psychology, anthropology)
Talents: Magick. I'm Wiccan. I also communicate with ghosts. On a more mundane level, I act, sing, write, I'm very articulate, I'm a decent martial artist, I win awards for my math skills, and I'm rather adept at psychoanalysis. People are afraid to challenge me in trivia contests. I'm a good cook. Also, I'm good at hiding my thoughts/feelings. No one ever knows what's going on in my head. I'm good at manipulating people, and I'm apparently a good listener.
Interests: Um… pretty much everything in likes and hobbies?
Favourite character: L. He just fascinates me. I particularly love his quirky personality and his adorable lack of basic social skills. He’s intelligent enough not to annoy me. And for some reason the scene in the rain and immediately afterwards earned him my eternal love. I suppose it’s because he just seemed so…fragile. So human.
I liked Light in the beginning, but he couldn’t hold my interest for the whole series. Therefore, the title of second favorite goes to Mello. Even if I mistook him for a woman. Not really sure how that happened, I can usually identify characters' genders…
Least favourite character: Misa. Must the lead female really be so… Ugh. At least give the girl some depth.
Would you use the Death Note?: Probably not. Not that I have any particular problem with it. I just lack the motivation. At any rate, if you’re going to kill someone you should be able to feel something about it - pleasure, regret, anything. Killing from afar with the Death Note promotes a sort of apathy that leads to killing without purpose, and that I could never approve of.
Who would you use it on, and why?: If I were to use it, I suppose it would be on criminals, like Kira. Although not those already in jail, as that’s rather pointless. Then again, it saves the government money that would otherwise be spent on providing for inmates… But no, I actually don’t think I would kill criminals. Not ones unrelated to myself anyway. No one human should have the authority to judge everyone else. If I killed someone it would be someone close to me, and I wouldn’t kill simply because they deserve it. In my mind killing can be justified as long as you feel with every part of you that there is no other way. The worse crime would be to go against what you believe in your soul to be right. And now I think I’m starting to ramble, so I’ll shut up.
Do you support Kira?: At first, sure. Then he starts getting arrogant. And once the decision that problems are best solved by killing innocents is made, I get a little pissed off. Talk about taking the easy route. And betraying his own ideals. Basically, I support him until he starts playing God.
Anything else you'd like to add?: My mood varies wildly, and I’m very good at changing myself to suit those around me, so if you ask different people to describe me you would get completely different answers. The one trait that shows most is my devotion to those who are important to me. The only crime I could never forgive is betrayal of someone close to you.
... Also, sort of figuring out why my friends think I'll be a serial killer some day.
Pictures!: I have no pictures that aren’t years old. I'm short, with a slim/average build. I have pale skin, blue eyes, and long dark brown hair - almost black. I wear glasses as my eyes are weak. I have small hands and long nails which make good weapons on occasion. I also have a tendency to stare at people without blinking when I'm lost in thought. Apparently I'm creepy.
My five votes!:
