BECAUSE I'M INSANE
Body and Appearance
1. Describe the character's height and build. Is she heavyset, thin, short, rangy?
Hokuto is a little taller than the average girl her age. She is thin and lean, almost boyish, with almost no curves except for her tiny nipped waist.
2. How old is she?
Sixteen years old, though she sometimes acts like she is six or 60.
3. Describe her posture. Does she carry herself well or does she slouch?
Hokuto moves freely, she can slouch, perk up, stand, slump, hop on one foot, do jumping jacks then go back to slouching all in the span of one second. It's difficult to pinpoint whether or not she "carries herself well" but she definitely knows how to work her body and make it do what she wants.
4. How is her health? Is she fit or out of shape? Any illnesses or conditions? Any physical disabilities?
If the manga is anything to go by, she eats too much McDonald's. But Hokuto is a great cook and nutritionist for Subaru and she seems very active so it's safe to say that yes, she is very healthy indeed, thanks very much.
5. How does she move? Is she clumsy, graceful, tense, fluid?
Fluid and graceful aren't the right words for her, neither are clumsy or tense. Hokuto moves like a bunny on speed, in quick movements and pronounced motions. She is far from clumsy, though she makes no effort to be graceful either.
