Laura
ASSUMED NAME: Laura
REAL NAME: Steele
AUTHOR: Da Wrecka
AGE: 17
OTAKU OF: Ami&Minakochanian (However, she has
respect for most of the Senshi. (Emphasis on "most") Kind of Neutralian,
but with one difference: Neutralians don't absolutely loathe, hate, and
detest *any* of the Senshi...)
FACTION: Minpire
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION:
Laura is 5'5" tall, slim build, around 130 pounds, and has long
honey-blonde hair which, when allowed to hang down, reaches to her
hips and a little further. Her favourite dress, and therefore the one
she wears whenever possible, is sleeveless and made of pale blue silk,
as are the gloves that reach no further than an inch past her elbows.
The skirt reaches to her ankles, revealing pale blue shoes that otherwise
look almost exactly like Sailor Venus'. The neck comes down in a U and
stops an inch or so short of showing any cleavage. A blue ribbon is
tied around her waist, in a bow at the back. When she wears this dress,
she wears two large, pale blue silk bows in her hair. The actual locations
are not fixed - sometimes she wears them side by side on the back of her
head, sometimes she wears them either side of her head, ie just above her
ears. She also wears a thin, pale blue ribbon tied loosely in a
bow around her neck (just over the throat) with this dress.
This is not her only outfit - just her favourite. (and therefore most worn)
If you want descriptions of her other outfits, either email me (
da_wrecka@cableinet.co.uk ) or ICQ me (UIN 55173450) and I'll fill you in. (I
won't go into it here to keep the WG as small as possible. If any budding
artists want to try drawing her, I won't stop you. I can't draw to save my life,
so I'm not even going to try.
POWERS:
- Can attack with blinding speed and accuracy - but only when she has to.
- Has managed to acquire a hammerspace somehow. Nobody knows exactly how,
and nobody really cares enough to find out. Not that she has much to put in
it.
- She is excellent at remaining hidden. Her normal choice of clothes makes
it difficult to hide in shadows though.
- Shortly after Steele's arrival, he had a desire to be on the Arty-P since
most of the present action was up there. After the death of several NO, he
managed to learn the ropes. Laura still retains this skill, though whether she
will find any use for it is another matter.
EQUIPMENT:
She has ditched all of her previous equipment in favour of magic.
(though her powers are unknown as yet) The only equipment she has
retained is the HBM, which is pretty much Solid Snake's radar all
over again.
WEAKNESSES:
- Still has migraines as a result of that skull fracture.
- Show her something kawaii and she's likely to go all gooey and mushy over
it. (Chibi Chibi especially)
- Rather pacifistic.
- Truly, madly, electrically in love with Rave, for reasons she's not
certain of. Every decision she makes, whether she realises it or not, revolves
around him.
- Give her a copy of Metal Gear Solid and the means with which to play it,
(which means a PSX and PSX MGS, or a PC and MGS PC) and she'll be powerless to
not play it for at least half an hour, probably more.
PERSONALITY:
- Personality-wise, she is quite similar to Steele, (before the amnesia)
except rather more mellow. Dramatically so.
- Her catchphrase, always used at appropriate moments, is "Moving swiftly
on...".
- Makes a conscious effort to be feminine. When the time is appropriate,
anyway.
- Has a slow fuse, but when it burns down, she explodes with the force of a
nuke. (in a manner of speaking)
- When it comes to her..."talents"...she is what can best be described as
indifferent. She doesn't exactly try to hide them - but she doesn't try to
highlight them either.
- Can best be described as happy-go-lucky.
- Has something of an inferiority complex.
- At the moment, she's seriously considering dying her hair pink and doing
it up in a Hanasaki Momoko style. <_< >_>
- Has developed a tolerance for Chibiusa, for unknown reasons. That's not to
say she'd put up with it if Chibiusa was being obnoxious.
- On a related note, she has, for unknown reasons, developed a liking for
the colour pink...
- Also on a related note, she tends to be rather amiable when it comes to
getting her to do stuff. There's almost nothing (within reason - I said WITHIN
REASON!!!) you couldn't convince her to do with cajolery and/or bribery. As an
example, you could get her to dress up as a female anime character without too
much trouble. (Ask her to dress as a Senshi, though, even Chibi Moon, and
she'll all but say "Sure! Where's my costume?")
- Would most likely want to huggle Chibi Chibi-chan on sight. Whether this
would plushify her or not is open for debate.
- She, like her author, has an unrelenting hatred of Pokemon. Since nobody's
mentioned them for a while, though, it's settled down a bit.
ORIGINS:
Joined the OW! as a male, and was turned into a woman by means and
motives unknown. No longer speaks with a Scouse accent. (her
accent is just...well...English) Has a soft, gentle, almost honeyed
voice....unless she's ticked.
GOALS:
Hazy. The last thing Laura remembers before waking up female one day
is being at a bar (as a male) with Sailor Jake and Brutus. After that,
the next thing she remembers is waking up feeling like a hippo was
playing tunes in her head with a sledgehammer, then looking in a
mirror and seeing a woman staring back - and the rest, as they say,
is history.
NOTABLE ALLIES:
- Sailor Jake: SJ took care of Steele after his memory bid reality the great
so-long. Laura considers SJ to be her oneechan. (sp?)
- Trium Shockwave: After getting a little revenge on him, he disqualified
her from the talent competition. He doesn't know it yet, but she instantly
forgave him for calling her and Minako morons and could enjoy his company
without any trouble.
NOTABLE ENEMIES:
None.
SIDE NOTES:
Dark Glen is no longer an enemy as far
as she is concerned; however, what *he* makes of *her* is another matter.
(Of course, there's no guarantee he'll even realise Laura and Steele are
one and the same)
