My first attempt in YEARS. Hopefully she will pass muster ;)


Name: Yamamoto Hotaru

Gender: Female
Age: 7 Months

Rank: Santô Hei
Current Assignment: TBA


Physical Characteristics

Height: 157cms
Weight: 41kgs
Measurements: 86-58-89
Bra Size: 81B

Build and Skin Color: Lithe and slender as one would expect, Hotaru possesses the classic, well defined build of her species: with well toned muscles and a figure kept in a state of perfect fitness. Her skin is an unblemished, pale pink and smooth to the touch.

Facial Features and Eye Color: Hotaru has the face of a young woman, slightly rounded and gentle. Her eyes are a deep ocean blue.

Hair color and Style: Her hair, while thick, is long and silky with cute bangs that frame her face. A rarity by neko standards, its colour is almost a burnt orange, fiery and vibrant, suiting her name well.

Usual Clothing/Dress Style: Hotaru usually can be seen in her uniform. Vary rarely will she wear civilian dress. When she becomes less shy, her tastes may change.

Distinguishing Features: While small of stature, with her slender limbs and slight frame, Hotaru looks to be fragile but appearances are often deceiving. In Hotaru's case it is true. She has been described as an adorable, little tail-kicking soldier.


Psychological Characteristics

Personality: Hotaru is currently shy, quiet, and polite. She is very curious and loves learning. She is endeavouring to overcome her shyness but finding it difficult going. Trying to stay in the background, Hotaru has become more observant and sometimes notices details others her age may miss. It has marked her as being a bit of a loner which upsets her sometimes. Despite being shy she loves the feeling of speed and can't wait to see what she is allowed to use after she recieves her assignment.


Likes: Ice-cream, rice foods, zero-G, playing strategy games, flying/piloting, reading, hugs, painting and drawing
Dislikes: 'Healthy' food, Mishhuvurthyar, traitors, loud people
Goals: To learn as much as she can, become a pilot and eventually gain enough rank in the Star Army to command her own ship.


History

Hotaru was raised and trained at Educational Facility 1 on Yamatai. She and her sisters stayed for two months where their handlers kept them under close observation. This was to confirm that they would not exhibit any behavioral abnormalities, just to be safe. It was also where she picked up her liking for speed.

She requested and got permission to stay in training for a further two months gaining more knowledge and mastering some of her skills which .

After completing her training, Hotaru is awaiting her first assignment.

Skills

Communications: Thanks to her dedicated digital memory and the rigorous training standards of the Star Army, Hotaru is familiar with a wide variety of communication systems and can transmit or receive transmissions using a variety of equipment in or out of combat. Fully fluent in both Nepleslian and Yamataian, she is also trained how to correctly and efficiently write reports, fill forms, issue and follow orders under fire, etc. Also, like all Neko, she is proficient with her telepathy as well.

Fighting: As a Nekovalkyrja, Hotaru was born ready to fight. She not only posses an innate knowledge of hand-to-hand combat (basics of martial disciplines), weaponry (such as pistols, rifles, knives, swords, grenades, including energy weaponry) and power armour in both Yamatai-like conditions and zero-gravity, but this was followed up with the best training regime in the Empire. Countless hours of simulated and live-fire exercises have honed her into a model soldier (like all Neko). All these skills are demonstrated whenever she enters combat with or without power armour, and Hotaru has proven herself a skilled shooter with ranged weapons.

As an enlisted Combat Arms, Hotaru received additional instruction on the finer points of armour use (mainly with the older Ke-M2-1F model) and is capable of keeping her suit in decent working order alongside basic familiarisation with most hand-controlled flight systems.

Mathematics: She was taught basic mathematics, including algebra, calculus and trigonometry, to comply with Star Army standards. A digital brain makes most calculations a cinch.

Knowledge: Hotaru is still very young, which probably explains why she is learning as much as she possibly can. She’s got the basic history of Yamatai and the like figured out but anything else is basic information and trivia.

Physical: Hotaru cannot grasp the more advanced forms of martial arts but doing acrobatics keeps her flexible: as a bonus it helps her speed and co-ordination. She is also nimble as a bird when she's in zero-gravity as a result of her training and quick reflexes.

Vehicles: Due to her extended training, Hotaru is trained in operating most models of Star Army shuttles currently in service. She is also somewhat capable of operating tanks, cars, trucks, and other ground-based vehicles but prefers the airborne varieties.

Technology Operation: As required, Hotaru is proficient in operating any computer system that uses the Kessaku OS – like most Star Army starships. She is proficient in entering and/or searching for information. She also has basic knowledge in how to pilot a ship, use communication devices and operate the Kessaku Electronics System.
