SURVEY OF DOOM
Which was actually pretty easy.
Body and Appearance
1. Describe the character's height and build. Is she heavyset, thin, short, rangy?
She's thinish, kind of lanky; you can see some bones like her ribs and cheeks, but that's out of illness, not because she doesn't eat.
2. How old is she?
16.
3. Describe her posture. Does she carry herself well or does she slouch?
She carries herself proudly when she's not in a self loathing mood - otherwise she slouches when she walks with her hands in her pockets, or curls up on her computer chair.
4. How is her health? Is she fit or out of shape? Any illnesses or conditions? Any physical disabilities?
She's terminally ill. It's gone untreated all her life to the point where she doesn't care too, so she really only has a handful of years left. She also ignores a lot of things that would help her live more comfortably - she shouldn't train and fight as hard as she does, and she shouldn't eat junk foods and greasy foods, but she does anyway.
5. How does she move? Is she clumsy, graceful, tense, fluid?
She's the kind of girl who stomps everywhere.
6. How attractive is this character physically? How does she perceive herself in the mirror?
She's actually pretty cute, if you don't mind the papery skin from her illness. Big, round, red eyes and fluffy white hair. She's got cute features - a buttony nose and a roundish chin, small, dainty hands, things like that.
She thinks she's gross, though.
7. Describe her complexion. Dark, light, clear, scarred?
Pallid. She flushes easily but it looks patchy at best. Kind of like a weirdly painted porcelain doll.
8. Describe her hair: color, texture, style.
White, soft and fluffy (when it's clean), bed head. She hardly bothers with it.
9. What color are her eyes?
A bright, rusty red.
10. Does the character have any other noteworthy features?
Not really.
11. What are her chief tension centers?
Upper and middle back. When she slouches, she slouches to the right to put the pressure off of her left side.
12. What is the character's wardrobe like? Casual, dressy, utilitarian? Bright colors, pastels, neutrals? Is it varied, or does she have six of the same suit?
Casual, neutral colors. Style varies between an urban street style and a cute girly style - but she always wears her favorite skirt.
13. Do her clothes fit well? Does she seem comfortable in them?
They actually do; she doesn't grow much, so she can always pick clothes to fit. And she never picks anything she isn't comfortable with.
14. Does she dress the same on the job as she does in her free time? If not, what are the differences?
HAHA JOB.
15. You knew it was coming: Boxers, briefs or commando?
Actually, she wears boxer briefs, because panty shots are a little less embarrassing with those.
Speech
1. What does this character's voice sound like? High-pitched, deep, hoarse?
Imagine the kind of voice you'd hear in a 20 woman in the alto range. Now make it a little cuter. And then make it kind of gravelly from years of coughing.
That's Sabi.
2. How does she normally speak? Loud, soft, fast, evenly? Does she talk easily, or does she hesitate?
It's a medium tone usually, with a medium, even pace. She hesitates if she's flustered or confused, but other wise, she's quick to bite.
3. Does the character have a distinct accent or dialect? Any individual quirks of pronunciation? Any, like, you know, verbal tics?
She speaks English rather fluently, from years of mimicking cartoons. It also means she's prone to a lot of slang and informal contractions.
In Japanese though, she's flowery, because that's what her nanny taught her. It's almost like listening to two different people, but that's just what she knows.
4. What language/s does she speak, and with how much fluency?
English and Japanese - she's actually a little better with English, but otherwise she's fluent in both.
5. Does she switch languages or dialects in certain situations?
If they're speaking it, she speaks it. Unless it's Tenma.
6. Is she a good impromptu speaker, or does she have to think about her words?
Unless she's flustered or confused, she's good at speaking on the spot. A lot of her wit is because of that.
7. Is she eloquent or inarticulate? Under what circumstances might this change?
HAHA eloquence. No she's really only eloquent a) when she's speaking Japanese, or b) when she has to explain a difficult concept.
Mental and Emotional
1. How intelligent is this character? Is she book-smart or street-smart?
She's actually more book-smart; due to being a shut in most of her life, she's extremely well read.
Her street smarts are actually taken from novels that include it and cartoons.
2. Does she think on her feet, or does she need time to deliberate?
She's a fast thinker. She only needs to deliberate social situations, really.
3. Describe the character's thought process. Is she more logical, or more intuitive? Idealistic or practical?
Intuitive and practical. She'd rather do something the easiest way, and alone; so that's what she looks for when she needs to.

Up until first grade, she went to public school - she was hospitalized for a while after that, and since then, was homeschooled.
5. What are her areas of expertise? What, if anything, is she interested in learning more about?
She actually excels at science and math, but her interest doesn't really lay in school subjects.
6. Is she an introvert or an extrovert?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
7. Describe the character's temperament. Is she even-tempered or does she have mood swings? Cheerful or melancholy? Laid-back or driven?
She tends to give off an air of neutral serenity if there's no reason to be upset - otherwise, she kind of grumps around. She's the kind of person who can't bite back a retort though, and her anger is easy to spark.
Lord help you if you find a berserk button.
8. How does she respond to new people or situations? Is she suspicious, relaxed, timid, enthusiastic?
HAHAHA.
No, er, she. Tends to harass, pick on, and generally make fun of new people. UNLESS she gets an air of kindness from them. If she can just feel that they're trustworthy, she leaves them alone.
That's not to say she can always pick out nice people, nor will she be one to come up and befriend them either. She just leaves them alone.
9. Is she more likely to act, or to react?
React.
10. Which is her default: fight or flight?
Fight, of course.
11. Describe the character's sense of humor. Does she appreciate jokes? Puns? Gallows humor? Bathroom humor? Pranks?

She's more prone to dry humor, sarcasm, satire and black humor though.
12. Does the character have any diagnosable mental disorders? If yes, how does she deal with them?
Extreme anger issues, terrible depression, mild instability that runs in the family, and she does jack shit!!!
If her berserk button gets hit, she actually gets physical, if she's depressed she hides for a week, for instability see: Smile.
Yeah.

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much to get into.

Sister was born after she was sent away, so she never met her.
