Canon history: Yay for Wikia!
AU history: Ever since Aqua was a young girl her parents knew there was something special about her, be it her bright smile or her warm and caring heart. Up until she was five years old she lived with her family until one day a man by the named of Eraqus approached them, telling them he sensed a powerful light within her heart. He told her family that with training Aqua could become a great Master one day. Though her family was apprehensive about letting their child go, Eraqus assured them it was for the best, but promised little Aqua could visit her family from time to time. Wanting the best for their daughter, Aqua was sent to live with Eraqus in a far off town called the Land of Departure. It was there that she met another young pupil by the name of Terra. It took a while, but she eventually befriended him.

For the next few years she trained under Master Eraqus, coming to love and respect him like a father. Under his tutelage she learned many things such as magic and how to battle with her keyblade. The Master also made sure his pupils also had normal schooling as well; on the days that they weren't training they were sitting in the library, doing chemistry homework and other things.

When it was the holiday season Aqua returned home to her family. the tradition continued until she was about ten when she received news that her family...was gone. There wasn't a single trace of them, as though her parents had vanished into thin air. This greatly upset the little girl, but Eraqus and Terra comforted her and helped her get through such a difficult time. From losing her parents, her connection to the Master and Terra grew stronger. While she had lost one family, she still had another, here with Master Eraqus and Terra and she would do anything to protect them.

Then when she was about fourteen, a new person entered her family--a boy by the name of Ven. Another keyblade Master brought him in, Master Xehanort. Though it took a while for the other to open up to her, she developed a strong bond with Ven as well--another brother in her little family.

When she reached the age of sixteen she and Terra took the Mark of Mastery exam. On the night before the exam she gave Terra and Ven a charm that she "worked a little magic" on. The charm was made to resemble a star shaped fruit that has a story behind it--should anyone make a charm shaped like that fruit they would have an unbreakable connection. To make sure they would always remain friends Aqua made these charms for them...though technically they're supposed to be made with seashells, but she did the best with what she had. After a round of sparing and hanging out they all went to bed.

The next day though the test began. She thought for sure that she and Terra would make it, but to her surprise she passed and Terra...didn't. The young woman wanted to comfort her friend, but Master Eraqus quickly gave her a mission. For the next few months she would have to travel to the other lands, for although she had proven herself to be a Master in front of Eraqus and in their 'classroom', she now had prove herself to be a Master in the real world. She had to say goodbye to her friends, but promised to return.

During her travels she grew stronger, but something was off. For a while she thought it was homesickness, but found out that wasn't it. She learned of the Black Mist and quickly returned to tell Master Eraqus. However, when she went back...she found her home was no more. The Black Mist had claimed her home...and possibly her family. It was then she received an invitation to the Academy. Hopefully Terra, Ven and Master Eraqus would be there...they were too strong to let the Black Mist get to them.

Personality: Aqua is the more mild and responsible person out of her group of friends. Instead of rushing into something she'll be the one to plan ahead and make sure all of their bases are covered. Plus, if she's given instructions on what to do she wants to make sure she does a good job of following through. However, if those instructions involve something sinister she won't go through with them. Her strong heart makes it nearly impossible for others to sway her from her from her morals.

Though that isn't to say that her strong heart doesn't have a weakness or two. Her friends are her heart essentially. If her friends are in danger she will risk her life to safe them without hesitation. Or should someone bad mouth a friend of hers, she will tell them to 'shut up' and stand up for them. Insulting a friend is a good way of upsetting her or, using her things without her permission.

When she's with her friend's she falls into the category of being a good listener and speaker. She'll listen to when someone has a problem and speak when she's sure they're done talking. She has a high level of patience so she won't force a conversation unless she really feels she needs to; like if a friend is silently hurting or if all else fails she'll go into mother mode. By that she'll sit there patently and quietly, while hugging her friend. Or if need be offer some advice that she thinks will help them, but she won't leave their side until she's sure they're completely okay. With these skills it makes it easy for her to handle children.

Basically she's a kind young woman who would do anything to protect her friends. Even though she's a master, she doesn't see herself as one. She's modest, humble and like other girls she does get embarrassed when someone expresses interest in her. If she's asked out on a date, she'll shy away from it. Considering she grew up around Ven and Terra she never thought about getting any sort of relationship. So in the aspect of relationships...she's a tomboy and has no idea how a girl should react when a guy asks her out.

On the battlefield though, she's a tricky little thing. She's agile, making her a hard target to hit. Her physical strength is the weakest out of Ven and Terra, which is why she uses her magic as defense and offense. She doesn't completely rely on her magic, though. She finds a balance between using magic and using her full strength which when combined she makes a very powerful opponent.

Greatest Fear: Above everything else, her greatest fear would have to be losing Terra and Ven forever.

❦ Writing
Third person writing sample:

Aqua sits in the library, her blue eyes skimming the words of her textbook while she quickly jotting a few notes in her notebook. There is an abandoned highlighter right next to her elbow. She continues to write down important bits and pieces of information, letting her elbow nudge the highlighter until it falls off the edge of her desk. It lands with a soft thud, breaking the bluenette's concentration. She places the pen down in the middle of her textbook before bending over to pick up the yellow highlighter.

The surface of it feels cool against her fingertips as she brings the object back to her desk. For some reason she doesn't drop it. She finds herself staring at the cute light green star logo on the side. That silly little star brings back the memory of when she bought a little night light for Ven.

He was having trouble sleeping one night and to make him feel better she bought him a star shaped nightlight. To keep you safe...while you sleep... Those were the words she told him that night, turning on it on to let a little corner of his room fill up with light. She remembers giving him a soft smile, ruffling his hair and giving him a final 'good night'.

"I wish...we could go back to those days.." she murmurs to herself, finally tearing her eyes away from the little star logo to her textbook.

The printed text before her no longer makes sense. She places her highlighter down to run her fingers through her short blue hair. Terra would be telling me to take a break right now.. In her mind she can hear his voice too, teasing her, telling her to stop worrying. Closing her eyes, she reaches for the little charm that hangs around her neck. She clutches it tightly, praying silently for Ven and Terra to give her strength.

She would see them again.

She just had to keep on believing.

First person writing sample:

||[Action/Video]||

[Aqua can be seen out in Goofy Stadium. She's picked a lone little spot to practice her magic. She's sitting down on the grass, legs crossed with her keyblade before her. In the palms of her hands there's a flicker of fire.]

Concentrate...

[The words are murmured to herself as she brings both of her hands together. Melding two spells together was simple, but she wanted it to be perfect. Breathing out a long sigh she opens her hands. There's no flame, nor do her hands appear to be burned or anything. Slowly she stands up, keeping her breathing nice and even. Suddenly she thrusts her hand out.]

Fira!

[Shooting out of her hand is a flame of fire, looking slightly more powerful than the two little flames she had earlier. Before the flame gets too far, she quickly calls out another spell.]

Blizzara!

[A cold trail of ice comes out, catching up to the fire until there's nothing, but steam in the air. She gives a small smile, proud of her work.]

Always good to practice the fundamentals. [Still smiling to herself she picks up her keyblade. The weapon disappears, allowing her to touch the charm she has around her neck. Without saying a word to anyone else she starts her trek back to the dorms.]
