WHY, HELLO THERE. This is Callirhoe again (player of Kevin, Angelo, and Jean-Paul) with another student and my first girl. GASP. Meet Nori Ashida, aged 18, who is a mutant from Japan who's been living on the streets of various American cities since running away from home at the age of 13 and illegally immigrating to the US. She's also been using antipsychotic medications to control her mutation -- which, incidentally, is that she continuously absorbs electrical energy from anything and everything around her, which she can then use to create lightning bolts from her hands. FEAR HER. No, seriously, she doesn't have control of the mutation without her drugs, which is why she'll be coming to Xaviers soon, because as fun as it is being dependent on pills (NOT), she'd like to get that under control and actually, you know, live her life.

Nori in a nutshell is a headstrong, independent girl who's totally not afraid to speak her mind and will stand up against injustice wherever she sees it. She's got strong ideas about feminism and the duty women have to speak up for their rights and not submit to men in any way, so she'll likely clash with some young men (and women!) there. She's fairly proud, and while she'll take help from others, she won't take charity and will always pay back favors or anything she's given. Aaand there's more about her in her profile, I don't know. I always forget to say something in intros.

So! At the moment she's living on the streets of Salem Center while she's scoping out the school and being cautious about trusting them with who and what she is, and I'd love to introduce her to the school with a bang. In the comics, her arrival at Xaviers is... eventful, shall we say? It involves a confrontation with Julian, and Nori being subdued by a team of students who think she's a crazy homeless junkie. We don't have to play it that way, but I'd love for her to cause some sort of commotion when she comes in, because you know, there just aren't enough explosions around here. ;P If anybody wants to volunteer to meet her when she comes knocking who would not be thrilled by having some dirty homeless Asian chick wandering around the grounds, I WOULD LOVE THAT. <3
