Character
Name: Huang Pao-lin / 黄宝鈴. (Hero alias: Dragon Kid) Fandom: Tiger & Bunny. Gender: Female. Age: 13. (Not quite confirmed in the show, but an interview with the main writer seems to put her around 12-14, so I've decided to hit the middle of that.) Time Period: Some point after the end of the first season. Wing Color: Same color green as her hair. History: You can find a brief summation of what's known about her canonically on the Tiger & Bunny article on Wikipedia, but a slightly more detailed headcanon history follows below

Word of this got around, and Pao-lin lost most of her friends, either because they were frightened of her or because their parents were. Left with all this time to herself, she spent it practicing her kung fu when she wasn't watching movies, reading comics, or doing responsible things like helping around the house or schoolwork. Her sifu was a kindly old man who lived in an apartment building not far from Pao-lin's old home; she took both public and private lessons with him. Although he wasn't a NEXT himself, he had been friends with one before and thus knew that they were just as human as everyone else. Through kung fu and tai chi, he taught Pao-lin how to control her NEXT power, convincing her to view it not as some curse but as merely a tangible manifestation of her chi. Pao-lin didn't always believe him, especially when she was being taunted at school for who she was, but going through the forms on her own usually gave her peace of mind, and it allowed her to deal with her circumstances without snapping. Her parents, however, were

Personality: Probably the first thing that anyone notices about Pao-lin is her tomboyish nature. She's very adamant in voicing her dislike for anything remotely girly, a fact which causes Natasha much consternation. But it's been shown that she can appreciate cute things: she shows off a maternal side in caring for the mayor's infant son (in fact, she's the only one out of the Heroes that he responds favorably to), and she eventually chooses to wear a pair of flower hairpins given to her by her parents as a parting gift once she finds out that the meaning of the flower on the hairpins is "thinking about you always". Episode 13 also revealed that Pao-lin is perhaps not completely at ease with her tomboy nature: she apparently considered herself less of a "girl" than a flamboyant heel-wearing, pink-clad gay man. While Pao-lin does genuinely have interests that don't coincide with mainstream notions of femininity, part of her insistence on tomboyishness may also be a defense mechanism against the isolation and ostracization she

Because somehow I didn't realize until after I'd posted this that I didn't talk as much about her personality here as I should have. Oops. Hope you don't mind this little add-on.Still, Pao-lin can be a little shy about asking her co-workers (or sometimes even her caretaker) for help if she needs it. Because she grew up without many friends and with parents who didn't really understand her (and a sibling who was as different from her as night from day), she's always felt that she had to deal with her problems on her own. Not to mention that forging it out on her own also falls within her assumption that this is what will make her stronger, and that asking for help is "weak." She'll usually try to keep an upbeat or a determined front, but every now and again the facade will crack, as it did when Kotetsu began teasing her about how cute she would look with flowers in her hair, and she blurted out to him and Barnaby about her frustrations with her parents. When it does, she'll quickly retreat and maybe sulk for a little bit before

physical - Pao-lin is a very skilled and acrobatic martial artist, able to fight both barehanded and with a staff (and possibly other weapons). She frequently combines this with her NEXT power of generating electricity, which is strong enough to stun someone. She's also quick and light on her feet.
mental/emotional - Surprisingly for her age, she can keep a calm head in dangerous situations. Probably the only reason she was caught trying to escape her bindings in a hostage situation was because the person who was holding her (and the mayor's infant son) hostage had a NEXT power that allowed her to literally smell danger. Pao-lin's also very disciplined about her kung fu training, working through forms while waiting for a criminal to show up at a location she was scouting out.
Weaknesses:
physical - Pao-lin is stronger than most girls her age, thanks to her martial arts training, but considering her small stature she's not that much stronger. She has to rely on her NEXT power, her agility, and her knowledge of sneaky,

Does anyone want to come with me to the Battle Dome? It sounds really interesting, but I don't want to go by myself, since I haven't been there before. I think it would be a lot more fun to train with other people! Plus, I want to see what everyone else can do. I've seen some really cool things here in Luceti so far!
Also, maybe this is a weird question, but...do you have to be a certain age in order to be drafted? I have a lot of fighting experience, so I'm sure I could help out with things, even though I know I'm pretty young.
Okay, I guess that's enough for now. I'm going to go get some dinner, so if you want to talk to me, you can find me at the pizza place. I'm looking forward to meeting everyone!
Third Person:
Pao-lin realized only belatedly that going to the tea shop was not the cure for the homesickness that had suddenly stung her heart as soon as she woke up this morning. Everything -- the smells, the atmosphere, even some of the people in the shop -- reminded her of a home she hadn't been
