[Background] Background

[Personality]

Though small, Hikaru has proves that size doesn’t matter, especially if your heart is large enough. When we are first introduced to Hikaru, we see that she’s a very enthusiastic girl and seems to view everything with a brand new pair of eyes. During a class trip to Tokyo Tower, Hikaru is excited to be there while her classmates are bored by the trip. It was through her enthusiasm at looking through the viewfinder that caught the attention of another girl, Fuu, whom she would later go on journey with. Even in Cephiro, Hikaru views the new world and her purpose in it with excitement. She was the first one to accept the idea of being a magic knight, while her other companions were still wary of accepting the title and task before them.

Though passionate, Hikaru is also naïve. Her naïve perception of the world makes other people perceive her as innocent and cute, making people feel they need to protect her. She’s oblivious to how wrong it was for Clef to lift up her skirt, or why they needed to be discreet in the forest of Silence when they meet Ferio, a stranger and potential threat. A reason for her naiveté is that Hikaru trusts anyone until she’s proven otherwise. Unlike some people who are careful of a new person, Hikaru greets them with open arms, believing they only have good intentions towards her. She is also pretty oblivious to matters of the heart. When Lantis asks her to marry him, she doesn’t understand what he’s asking, only thinking that the knight wanted to be friends forever and expressing she feels the same way about everyone.

However, if you prove that you are malicious, especially toward her friends, Hikaru will show the fight within her. Another quality that Hikaru possesses is the confidence in her ability to fight. She’s usually the first to draw her weapon out and attack an enemy. But even greater than her ability to fight, is her strength to protect her friends. Hikaru grows even stronger when her friends are counting on her and it’s their presence that gives her strength. But Hikaru is also not one to hold a grudge, especially if the person seemed reformed. It’s easy for her to forgive a person and start to trust them. An example of this is when she fights Lafarga. Lafarga viciously attacks her, but after being burned by her fire, the knight returns to his senses, she quickly forgives him, disregarding the fact that he inflicted wounds on her and nearly killed her.

Though, Hikaru willingly fights for anyone she considers a friend, she also tends to be selfless, to the point that she’ll allow her body to take a considerable amount of damage. Hikaru will put her life on line for her friends, Umi and Fuu, even if they had not known each other long. Even when she is tested by the Fountain of Eterna, she refuses to lay a hand on her dog Hikari, while it viciously attacks her. Though she is willingly to get hurt, she doesn’t throw her life away either. Hikaru is aware that dying would let the people she cares about down and make them sad. The thought of making anyone sad, empowers her even more and makes her pierce through any obstacle in her way.

Hikaru does have a lot of good qualities but she is flawed. She wants happiness for everyone to the point that she’ll forget about her own feelings. She takes on tasks on by herself, not wanting to burden anyone else. Like Umi comments, Hikaru always places the world on her shoulders. It takes Hikaru awhile to allow the other Magic Knights to help her or confide in them.

Hikaru also matured a lot throughtout the series. At first, she believed a lot of things were black and white. When she first went to Cephiro, she automatically believed Zagato was bad for imprisoning the princess. But after the truth was revealed, that Zagato was not trying to harm the princess, but save her, Hikaru went into a state of depression. What she believed was wrong and she felt an enormous guilt for what she had done. But instead of moping around and allowing the regret to eat at her, she decides to go back to Cephiro, settle her feelings.
It’s no question that Hikaru’s will is strong. She is a girl who strives to complete any goal she wants, without fail. Hikaru is considered the leader of the Magic Knight because of this trait. In a world powered by one’s will, Hikaru proves that by encouraging the other Knights along the way, while keeping up her own resolve, that she has a strong heart. Even more the reason why she was chosen to become the new pillar of Cephiro after Princess Emeraude. Her heart was stronger than that of Eagle, who was following the same path of the princess. It was even her will to save Eagle from disappearing in the testing ground for the pillar,refusing to allow the other man to disappear, even if he didn’t have long to live. Some people might consider her strength of heart to be stubbornness, but rather her will is really her love for everyone.

[Specialties/Abilities] Fire Magic- Hikaru was gifted with the magic of fire. She was given this ability when she first traveled to Cephiro and was given the gift by Clef Guru, the most powerful Mage of that world. She only has two attacks, Flame Arrow and Red Lightning, which are pretty strong attacks.

Sword skills- Is pretty adept in swordplay, growing up in a kendo dojo in Tokyo has made her an excellent swordswoman.

Communicate with animals - Hikaru seems to be able to understand animals. It’s no wonder that her dog, Hikari is so close to her and how she managed to make quick friends with Mokona. It seems Hikaru can understand most creature, whether from Earth or from Cephiro.

Magic Knight- Hikaru is one of the Magic Knights, Princess Emeraude summoned to Cephiro. Hikaru is able to transform into one of the magic knights changing out her school uniform to a knightly garb.

Rune God- Because she is a Magic Knight she is able to use the Rune god of Fire, Rayearth, which is a Giant Mecha. [Disabled. Wouldn’t be able to use in Somarium]

[Affection] Pat on the shoulder - Everyone needs an encouraging tap on their shoulder.
Hugs - Hikaru is totally okay with a good hug, she'll even give them freely
Kissing- Hikari is pretty innocent, she wouldn't know how to handle that. Nor would she think of giving anyone a kiss. Maybe a kiss on the cheek
Holding hands- Like the above...so innocent and oblivious, she'll probably only perceive it as being friendly. She do it, but only platonic and without placing too much thought into it.
Beyond kissing- Not gonna happen, unless your a special person to her. And did I mention she's a minor. Perv!

[Fighting] Other characters are free to fight, injure Hikaru...but as for killing, we would have to discuss that and it has to be a good reason.

Hikaru is skilled in Kendo and is a magic knight. She knows how to fight, but she would never provoke anyone. Unless you've done something to her, that's when she'll retaliate. She'll injure your character, but killing will never cross her mind.

[Other Permissions] Can telepathic characters read your character's mind? Yes.
How much can fourth wall breakers say? Anything they want...Hikaru would probably think it was cool.

[Other Facts] None~
