General Information
--------------------
Name: Hiyoue Hara (Formerly Nakamura)
Actual Age: 154
Appearing Age: 15
Gender: Female
Appearance
Hiyoue has long dark red hair, most of which is pulled back into a high, long pony tail that falls back to her waist. Two other 'tails' fall to either side of her face in front of her ears, and her bangs come down her forehead to just above the bridge of her nose. These do not cover her eyes which are an expressive smoky-smouldering black. She stands about five feet, two inches tall, and weighs about one-hundred and eight pounds. Her body is toned from exercise but not overly muscular, and her skin is fair and light.
She wears the traditional garments of the academy students; A red shitagi and hakama, white kosode with red stripes and circular symbols on the breasts, socks and sandals. The only differences in her attire are a pair of black fingerless and backless gloves. These have gold bands and buckle around the wrists.
Hiyoue also wears a golden braided choker with a citrine stone that falls just slightly above her breasts. Lastly, there's what looks like a piece of hollow mask fragment, turned into a hair ornament on the right side of her head. When not in class, there are many different outfits both normal and eccentric that she likes to wear.
Personality
Hiyoue is an energetic, and fun loving girl. She can be kinda teasing to people at times but may be oblivious to how they feel about it. She has no idea that some, but not all of her outfit choices can be kinda out there. What do they know? They've got no fashion sense. She can't wait for the day that she gets to visit the world of the living to look for more great stuff.
She's very independant, always wanting to be able to take care of herself. She hates to admit if she needs help, even in battle, maybe its like she feels she has something to prove. Hiyoue is fiesty and fiery tempered. She's doing her best to control these outbursts that sometimes lead to random accidents from her unpredictable spiritual energy. None of these accidents have done any real harm to anyone, but they can cause some small damage to the surrounding area.
She likes the academy because it gave her an opportunity to get away from her old life. She tries to get along with most of her fellow students, as long as they don't act like they are better then everyone else. In that regard, and because of her past, she's not very fond of noble brats in the academy. Those that always get what they want because they can. Hiyoue tends to give them a hard time unless they can somehow get on her good side.
History
Hiyoue was born to a middle class family in the fifty-third district of North Rukongai. Her childhood was pleasant, and she wasn't mistreated. Like few other districts, the families of her neighborhood had established a small wannabe 'militia' that was little more then a watch to deal with any problems that arose; bandits, gang activity, and natural disasters like fires or storms. Her mother was a strong and beautiful woman, named Ayaka, and often led the way armed with her favorite pan. Though they were not nobility a noble lord took notice of their efforts and sought her father's advice on matters in his domain. However the young lord's interests were not solely on Hiyoue's father's wisdom, he had taken a liking to Ayaka.
For years the noble consulted with Hiyoue's father, but secretly harbored feelings for Ayaka. After some time, the noble offered Hiyoue's father a position as a guardsman and invited the family to live in his estate. Hiyoue was eight at the time, and it was the first time any evidence of her having spiritual power presented itself.
The young lord had sent a messenger with a missive and explained his lords wishes, but Hiyoue didn't want to leave her home and friends. In the resulting tantrum the papers the messenger brought burst into flames and Hiyoue fainted moments after. The messenger had dropped the papers and ran, but Hiyoue's parents were concerned for their daughter. Hiyoue woke up the next day like nothing had happened, so the family continued on. They had no idea what it would mean for Hiyoue's future.
Within a week or so Hiyoue started to feel pain in her stomach and a doctor said it was that she was hungry and tried to explain why. Most of it kinda went over her head but there were lots of weird things that her parents and the doctor talked about. They decided they could better care for their daughter by accepting the invitation to the noble's home.
Some years passed, and while Hiyoue's father was given a position as a guardsman, Hiyoue and her mother were treated lavishly, but Hiyoue wasn't happy. One of her only thrills was all the new clothes she got to wear, they were great and she liked mixing and matching things Furthermore, her mother Ayaka began to suspect the noble's intentions were less then, well, noble. She didn't dare say anything though, keeping her suspicions to herself lest the noble put her husband on more dangerous work.
In that time Hiyoue's abilities were growing at first all she could do was make a small light that burned itself out in moments. Then amorphous shapes that waved and wobbled before popping like a colorful balloon. As time went on though the most extreme shows of Hiyoue's growing ability were when she was upset or angry.
Hiyoue snuck out a few times to meet up with old friends but they didn't treat her the same. Maybe they were afraid of getting in trouble. When Hiyoue saw that many didn't want to be her friends anymore she was sad, then angry, and for a while just wanted to be alone because of the way her old friends hurt her. This led to a few accidents in the estate and the presence of Hiyoue was starting to become troublesome for the noble to bear.
Hiyoue was about fourteen when the noble began speaking of marrying Hiyoue off to another family, something she didn't want at all. She decided to leave the estate, she didn't know where to go, but that didn't matter. All Hiyoue wanted was to get away. Besides, she could take care of herself, or so she thought. She took off, running through the woods, with a pack of clothes, food, and things over her shoulder, in time Hiyoue got lost, surely if she kept going she'd find someone. She got confused and scared but tried not to show it as the woods seemed darker and more threatening with all the strange sounds and shadows.
She heard a sound and spun in its direction breathing heavilly as she tried to focus on shadows to see what was out there. Her shakey hand raised to make a small light and it was answered by a pair of red eyes in the trees. A hollow had followed Hiyoue, tracking her by her spiritual energy. It wasn't large, but it was terrifying looking. Hiyoue thought it was all over, but suddenly a shinigami woman appeared and fought the hollow. During the fight the woman's zanpakuto cracked the hollows mask and a piece fell to the ground. The hollow fled, and the shinigami warily put away her weapon turning to the girl who she rescued.
The shinigami could feel Hiyoue's spiritual energy, unfocused and wild, and told her that the hollow probably sensed it and came after her. She needed to learn to control her power and could do so at the academy. She offered to guide Hiyoue back and Hiyoue nodded picking up the fragment of hollow mask that fell. She stuffed it into her pocket and went with the shinigami.
"What is your name?" The shinigami asked.
"Its Hiyoue,...Hara." Hiyoue replied, changing her name so that she wouldn't have to go back. She enrolled in the academy ready to change her life.

Sample Post
--------------------
Hiyoue walked down the hallways of the Shinigami Academy. It had been a long day and the classes were tough, the last thing she needed was to deal with Jurou and Gurou. They were the sons of a noble house who thought they were the gods' gift to the academy, the next captains of the soul society, and one day maybe one of them would be the next commander. They were brats pure and simple, unredeemable, and she hated them from the day that she met them. They had decided between themselves, and without even asking Hiyoue, that one of them would have her as a bride and competed with each other to try and win her.
The two popped up on either side of her and at first she looked surprised and then glared at each in turn.
"It's so nice to see you today, Hiyoue." said Jurou.
"Hello Hiyoue, where are you doing?" asked Gurou.
"Trying to avoid you two." She replied rolling her eyes, darkened by a brooding frown from having to deal with the brothers.
"You think she means it brother?" asked Jurou.
"Of course not, Jurou. Oh Hiyoue, you're so funny." Said Gurou with a chuckle.
Hiyoue leaned against a wall and both the brothers settled to either side of her. "I'm not trying to be. Listen you two I've had a hard day. My hand to hand sensei has been kinda rough on us, not to mention a little touchy feely. I would really like just to go to my room and relax."
"Really? Hiyoue...I think I'll join your class if sparring partners get that close." The last said to himself as Jurou thought about 'handling' Hiyoue.
"Hiyoue, if you've had such a hard day, maybe you would like a massage, hmm? I'd be more then happy to help you." Gurou said with a smirk and earning a shove from his brother.
"Hey! If anyone is going to give Hiyoue a massage it'll be me, right Hiyoue?"
"Forget it brother, Hiyoue's going with me."
Each grabbed for Hiyoue's arms and tried to tug her in either direction, poor Hiyoue felt like a taffy streched to both sides, finally she snapped and threw her arms up yelling at the two.
"Hey! Hey, STOP! LET GO OF ME! I'm not going with either of you! I'm going to MY room ALONE! When I get there, I'm gonna take a nice relaxing bath that neither of you are going to be able to see!"
Hiyoue added the last just to mess with the brothers she could see their faces reddening slightly as they thought about it. She reached up and tossled her long red hair her hair ornament bobbing slightly. She thought about taking a swing at them but the dazed looks on both their faces was enough for now.
"Now if you'll excuse me." She said shoving the both of them away and heading off with her head uptilted.
