Kumiko Rowan (War Sim: Solider)
Okay, maybe it was a stupid idea, but since we
were all doing two characters each anyways, I decided
to do twins. Well, I unfortunately found Kumi's picture. I'd forgotten it was so...interesting.

Character's Name: Kumiko "Kumi" Rowan
Applicant's Screen Name: HaramisLT
Applicant's real name(Optional.): Ummm... Emily.
Character's Rank: Major
Character's Weapon: A sword... and her braid!
Limit Breaks(Name and describe four.):
1. Coordination: Kumi cna cause someone's inner ear balance to be off and
makes them very clumsey for a time.
2. Kagami: Kumi is able to temporarly copy somones style and understand the
faults in it. She can learn from this and it greatly helps her sword technique.
3. Daddy's Girl: Fully summoning her strength, Kumi uses a special sword
technique her father taught her that can move through almost any defense
to allow her to strike her opponets vital areas and cause huge amounts of
damage.
4. Lost Love: This limit is only possible when Aideen works in conjecture
with Kumi as it uses their birth connection. The two take hands and chant.
They can temporaly combine to form the Neo Bahamut. The combination can never
last more than a single day, but during that time they have the power of
that summon and unity of purpose. What that purpose may be, however, depends.
Special Skill(s): Kumi is an excellent swordswoman, tactician, and warrior.
To jusify keeping her hair long in the military, she uses it as a weapon.
Somewhat like a whip, she can strangle an opponet to death with it.
Character's Personality: Kumi appears to have no personality on the outside,
at least to people first meeting her. Her entire focus is on being the best
warrior possible. She has a sense of humor that emerges occasionally, but
when her father started ephasizing discipline at the age of twelve, she lost
much of it. She's very chilly on the outside and she spends most of her free
time alone. She used to be very active and talkative, but she supresses that
part of herself. She's almost indifferent to other people. In battle, she
takes more charge and some of her previous character emerges; she truly enjoys
battle. It's the only time she really seems alive. She lives on her father's
approval.
Brief History Of Character: Kei Mizuko and Derek Rowan were from opposite
sides of the war, but a brief time after they met, they decided that love
could overcome the differences. Kei married him and moved in to live with
the Shin-Ra. She became pregnant after a few months and gave birth to a set
of twin girls with hair as red as their father's. They named them Kumiko
and Aideen Kei quietly took care of the girls, but found herself growing
sick of Derek's justification's of the war. When the girls were about
5-months-old, there was a brutal attack on a village by the Shin-Ra. Kei
could hear the soldiers talking abou the slaughter like it was a game. She
couldn't stand it any longer and told Derek she was leaving and didn't care
if he was going with her or not. They had a huge fight and he told her that
he refused to lose his entire family. He planned on taking one of the girls,
and if she didn't agree to it, he could ensure that she lost both of her
daughters. She gave in and he took Kumiko and arranged transport for Kei
and Aideen back to her village. Kumi was rasied strictly military. As soon
as she was old to ask about her mother, Derek told her that she had died
giving birth. Kumi always felt a little responsible for killing her mother,
and so she did everything she could to please her father to make up this
crime. She grew up loving the military, combat, and fighting. Everytime she
had a chance she was learning new moves and fighting anyone she could. She
would often come home for dinner roughed up, covered in dirt, and wiith some
new 'battle wound" to show her father. He encouraged her behavior hoping
she would become an excellent Shin-Ra soldier. She accepted this ambition
as her own and focused almost entirely on getting into the war. She joined
SOLDIER at 17.
Description: Kumiko is 5'8 and had emerald green eyes and red hair. Her uniform
is in a very dark green. When not in uniform, she dresses fairly conservative.
She usually looks so plain she could blend in anywhere if it weren't for
her hair. Most of the time she'll just wear black slacks and a white shirt
open at the collar. She never wears any jewelry. She might have worn a necklace
if her father had given it to her...He gave her a sword. She loves the sword
dearly and uses it in battle. She always feels a little unconfortable when
she doesn't have it with her.
Which side is the character fighting for and why? Shin-Ra, it's all she's
ever known.

Intergalatic Nerd Covention (INC), she said, "Be Kumi."
