[NOTE: decided to change names into Western format: first name, last name as I'm used it, though I'll use the Asian format during conversations/thoughts in the RP. :P]

Name, Age: Kaitou Icery, 18

Do you play an instrument? If yes, which one and for how long?: Alto Saxophone, for 4 years

How often will you be able to role-play?: Probably everyday, unless I get some MAJOR work to do.

Character Name: Kazuha Takemoto

Which school does your character attend (see above)?: Toho Gakuen

Instrument your character plays: Violin

Character Description - Please keep in mind that you are allowed to add as much detail as you want to your character
Physical Appearance: She's 16 years old. Standing 5'4", she's slightly taller than the average girl. When she was younger, she used to wear glasses, but now she wears contacts as she prefers them more. The only time that she even wears glasses is when she's at home and when her contacts are irritating her eyes. She has shoulder-length blue hair that she usually ties in a half French braid (Think Tohru from Fruits Basket; and btw, that was the closest I could think of to describe her hair. xP) with a silver ribbon and has greenish-blue eyes. Outside school, she usually dresses in semi-casual outfits, mainly consisting of blouses, skirts, and slightly healed shoes. She always likes making a good impression on people.

Personality: She's quite cynical and sarcastic much of the time, so it's difficult to see her real agenda. That and she never really shows much of her emotions, outside being sarcastic and cynical. And whenever she isn't, she gets embarrassed about it as she's not used to expressing herself, outside being cynical and sarcastic. She's quite prideful as she never likes to rely on people and in that aspect, it can make her seem quite cold. On that same token, there are certain emotions that she can never express because she doesn't want to feel weak and vulnerable, like the average teenage girl.

Family: Mother, Father, Older Sister (Haruka, age 17)

Relationships:
Suzaku Wakabayashi - She has a slight crush on him as they're both in the same class, but because of her pride and fear, she refuses to show her feelings for him, even though she knows that if she doesn't act on her feelings, someone else could take him away from her. I suppose that they're on alright terms, but she usually is a bit cold to him and it's pretty much because of her crush on him. She's pretty sure that he doesn't know about her crush on him, but it might be a problem is his sister finds out about it.

Akira & Hiroto Takemoto (parents) - For the most part, she gets along with her parents. They're not really close, as her parents are constantly at work (mother's a doctor, father's a CEO of a huge business firm) and whenever they are around, they can never get a long conversation started.

Haruka Takemoto (older sister) - She and Haruka are pretty close, despite Haruka being in Europe for the past two years studying to be a professional pianist/composer. Haruka always thinks that her younger sister is just way, way too serious about her music and should lighten just a little bit and have some fun. The reason why she says that, is that Kazuha is becoming like her -- in that she's putting music before anything else and is not letting herself have any fun. Haruka had to learn it the hard way and now she doesn't want her little sister to have to go down that same path. She wants to show her that she can be focused with music and be serious about it, while having fun. Unfortunately for Haruka, Kazuha doesn't see it that way at all. She's also the only person, besides Kazuki Hihara, who knows about her crush on Suzaku Wakabayashi.

Their relationship hasn't always been so stable and smooth as it is now. When they were younger, like when were still in elementary school, Kazuha hated Haruka. Because Haruka was a prodigy and she isn't, she was constantly compared to her, despite the fact that they don't even play the same instrument. That always pissed her off and also made her doubt her own talent as no one else really saw it. "It's always Haruka this, Haruka that. Haruka's always the center of attention." Despite all of the insults she gave her, Haruka was never mean to her. In fact, she was the one who acknowledged her talent. Sheisn't sure, but perhaps it was the fact that Haruka acknowledged her talent... was the reason that she no longer hated her. [revealed in Chapter 1: A Peaceful Beginning?]

Shouta Yoshitaka - The two have known each other since they were little as a result of their fathers being business affiliates. Their relationship is like a cat and dog, so they generally don't really get along all that well. Deep down, Shouta has a huge crush on Kazuha and no matter what she says or does, his feelings haven't changed. Kazuha, on the other hand, completely dispises him and is clueless of Shouta's feelings for her. Even though they've known each for so long, Kazuha doesn't call him "Shou-kun," (she stopped calling him that before they got into middle school) but rather calls him by his last name. The only times that she calls him that these days are when he makes her call him that or uses it in one of her sarcastic/cynical remarks [introduced in Chapter 6: A Reunion]

Masanobu Hirasaku - He's the owner of the Kawasaki Music Store, which Kazuha usually visits (though since she's got to high school, she hasn't visited much). The two get along relatively well and have known each other since since she was in middle school, when Haruka would visit often to play the piano in the shop. [introduced in Chapter 1: A New Beginning?]

Do you plan any new relationships that weren't mentioned in the mini character profiles? (optional):
Ayumi Wakabayashi - Kazuha's seen her around and they have exchanged a few words and I couldn't say that they were friends by any means, but they're on neutral grounds with each other. She doesn't know how well Ayumi plays, so she really can't see her as a rival by any means. The other thing is that even though Kazuha has never openly revealed that she has a crush on her younger brother, if anyone had any suspicion that she did would be her because she and Suzaku have a good brother-sister relationship.

Katsuo Hyuga - Kazuha has known Katsuo since middle school and has seen him in several competitions before and she knows how serious he really is for music as she is kinda in the same position as he is. She doesn't recall what his brother plays, but whatever it is, he just wants to surpass him. I'm not really sure if she sees him as a rival or not, but if so, not a direct one as they don't play the same instrument, but there might be a rivalry between the two as they both have great talent. They can definitely tolerate each other and get along on terms, as they have done a duet together in one of the competitions that they were in several years back, but they're nothing more than just acquaintances at the moment.

Kazuki Hihara - She's known him since they were in elementary school and surprisingly they're actually friends, considering her personality (makes me wonder is she was always sarcastic and cynical when she was younger). She doesn't really see him much anymore as she would have gone to Seiso if she didn't move in 7th grade. She knows about his crush on Hino Kahoko, who she has only heard things about her and not actually have met her. She does annoy and tease him about it, but she does envy how he can at least show them while she can't. He's also the only person, besides Haruka who knows about her crush on Wakabayashi Suzaku as he made her tell him who she liked. Like with Haruka, but she's a lot more open with him and can express her emotions a lot more freely and thinks of him like an older brother at times.

Background: With both her parents having high paying jobs, she's pretty much lived an relatively easy life. On that same note, like I mentioned with her relationship with her parents, they aren't home that much because of work, so their family isn't close, which may have contributed to how she and her sister have a close relationship. Both her parents don't really care that both of their kids want to be professionals in the music world, but at times, they do worry about how the distance between them and both their children will grow if and when they become professionals, as the distance between them is already quite large.

Sample RP (>=10 lines): "Kazuha-chan, why did you decide to come here instead of going to another school, say Ueno Gakuen, as it's the most renowned music high school in Japan? You're really talented, that's why I'm asking."

"It's a lot more fun~ here," Kazuha said with a fake smile, before her tone got more serious. "are you kidding me?! I don't know why." 'Haruka went there and I don't want to be in her shadow, even though we don't even play the same instrument.'

She loves confusing people with her sarcasm as she found it quite amusing. She knew that no one would really not notice her sarcasm, but she just wanted to see how everyone would react. Other that that, nothing else mattered to her. She got up off her seat and walked towards the door and when she got there, she bumped into Suzaku. "Watch it." was all she could say before walking past him. When she knew that he was out of sight, she sighed. "Why..." she mumbled as lightly slapped her forehead with right hand, "Something like this is so meaningless, so why must it bother me then? It will only get in my way, hinder me from my goal."

EDIT August 25, 2007: Added more to her relationship with Haruka (the past) and will add more as it comes into the RP.
Edit June 09, 2008: Updated relationships - added Masanobu Hirasaku and Shouta Yoshitaka.
