Character: Machika Balfaltin

Series: Immortal Rain
Character Age: 15

Canon: Immortal Rain is the story of Rain Jewlett who is more commonly known as the immortal Methuselah. He has been waiting six hundred years to see his immortal friend, Yuca, be reincarnated. Rain spends his time wandering around as a hobo and trying to avoid being caught by those who wish to claim the ridiculously high bounty placed on his head. Rain’s years of being on the run are interrupted when Machika comes after him to take his head. Adorable hijinx ensue, and instead of decapitating him she falls in love with him and swears to help find a way to make him mortal again.

As the spunky heroine of this story, Machika has it all. She’s fast, strong, and determined to take down anything that stands in her way. To her extreme dislike, she is also flat-chested and short, giving her the appearance of a young boy as opposed to a young woman. For all of her awesome shounen retard traits, though, she is still emotional and isn’t afraid to show her feelings. Her empathy allows her to understand the feelings of others and her compassion compels her to help those in need. Our kickass heroine always tries to stay optimistic and struggles to overcome her own flaws by moving forward. She is quick to make friends, and equally quick to resort to name-calling when frustrated. The only person she loves more than her dead grandfather is Rain, and she has promised to be his grim reaper when it comes time for him to go-because no one is allowed to take his life but her.

Sample Post:

I can’t believe the day I’ve been having! It’s bad enough that I got lost in the cornfields, but then I stepped in something I don’t think was mud…Yuck, it smelled really bad. I tried to cut all of the corn away so that I could see over it, but it didn’t help at all. It’s not because I’m short; it’s because the corn is too tall! Stupid corn.

To make matters worse, I’ve had this trio of purple gorillas following me around, being completely unhelpful. They really are purple, too. What kind of place has purple gorillas? At first, I didn’t care about them since they weren’t doing anything, but then when I finally found a restroom they wouldn’t let me go in! They obviously don’t teach their gorillas how to behave around here if they go around stopping people from going to the restroom. I just wanted to clean my boots off, jeez. And I didn’t see any other restrooms around, so I wasn’t about to walk off and go look for another restroom when there wasn’t one in sight! So I decided to teach them some manners and beat their furry butts up. They had it coming to them! Three against one wasn’t very fair, but I gave them all a fighting chance. I even let them all come at me at once. I bet they’re sorry that they underestimated me; no one beats the mighty bounty hunter, Machika!

But now that I think about it I’m not really sure why they wouldn’t let me in the restroom in the first place. It seems kind of silly, right? The big one kept gesturing to my chest and shaking his head…but I don’t get why-Hey, wait a second! Those jerks think I’m a boy! I guess that explains a lot. -But that’s no excuse! I can’t believe those gorillas are so stupid. I’m obviously a girl! I oughta go punch their lights out again! That’ll teach them to mistake me for a boy. They probably wouldn’t know a girl if she walked up and slapped them in the face. I’m glad I taught them a lesson! Who knows what would have happened if anyone else had come by looking to clean up; better for me to give them a pounding right now then let them bully some defenseless girl later. They kinda look like they wanna apologize, though…Well, they should feel sorry! There’s no way you could mistake me for anything other than a girl.

As an apology, I think I’ll let them show me around camp. It’s better to be with someone then to go wandering off by yourself, right? And they can help me if I get lost in the corn again.
