Early Years:
Mamanie was born to a servant class family her father worked as a Valet for a wealthy man. Her mother was the house keeper for them. She was meant to be their son’s wife when she became old enough but that all changed when she was five, she was sat playing with the boy when men burst through the main door bullets flew one killed the boy another hit her shoulder thinking she was dead they continued to kill the family including her father leaving her with just her mother and brothers but all of them turned their backs on both her mother and her saying they had no room and would not take in an old widow and little girl since they had enough women in their homes. Gackt’s grandmother Obasan heard all the excuses from each brother and decided enough was enough and that they would live with them and keep house for her. She was happy to be living with her cousins but found mash annoying as he kept pulling her pigtails as they played though she got her own back by stuffing Obasans dumplings up his nose. Every summer she would go swimming with them sometimes she would sneak from the house and skinny dip by the light of the full moon she knew she was safe. When Mash and Gackt for school he was the one who gave her, her first kiss and in her heart she knew he was the one for her.

Hogwarts Years:
When her powers came in, she accidently blew up a garden shed she was so scared she hid and it was Gackt who found her and told her it was ok. Soon at eleven her letter came and she was over the moon on the day she was sorted she hoped she would be in one of the houses Gackt or Mash were she hoped not mash as she felt it would make her heart ache for him more at not being able to be with him in a special way, her classes went fine as she focused on them she had several boys interested in her but she never went with any.

In her third year she found one boy did started to date but it didn’t last as he found out he was cheating on her so she broke it off again working on her spells and potions. Teachers would help her and fellow girls would try and make her date guys but she refused seeing mash walking around the school she tried to stay away from areas she knew he would be in. In her fifth year she decided to just study her mind now set on school and not boys though one did start to talk to her and they struck up a friendship threw that year he helped her. Come her seventh year he asked her marry her but no soon as they left the school he left her for another girl leaving her heart broken and headed back to Japan alone.


Adulthood:
Now back in Japan she got a job teaching dance in her local town’s children. She still lived with Obasan and her mother helping where she could clean the house. She also learned to teach the local little ones karate to keep herself busy, so she didn’t have to think about how she was used and dumped buy that boy. She then heard of Mash and of what had happened to him with Hyde and felt a common hurt with him. She spent every night looking up at the stars and hoping he would be alright but when word came he was not doing well she asked for permission to go and see what she could do. Obasan agreed as did her mother but she had to have a good reason Gackt provided it with a babysitter for their boys and their new daughter. She left and went straight to Gackt’s.

Gackt can you use the correct template please? (:

ok fixed I hope please look again

i'd like you to rethink your character "likes", please. they sound a whole lot more like what you intend for strengths to me. they sound like things she is good at, rather than things she likes. You might want to explore some of the other applications in order to help clarify those things.

And although it is not manditory, I'd love to see you explore her just a bit more and make her a bit more individualistic. She has great potential to be a really good character, but you need to make her more of a distinctively different person in order to do that. Its just my thoughts, anyway.

If you want to try to do that and need a little help, just ask!

K.

ive fixed everything about the likes and dislikes my computer upstairs 's editing program mashed everything altogether and i dint see that beofre, so no worries.
how do mean by a more induvialist charcater Khatt? i'd like to know and then i can decide which direction to go.

Well, i'm only going to mention things in pieces. I think it'll work better that way. Also, you may see some of the other admins giving their 2 cents simply because most of them have a lot of well developed characters and they may have tips of their own. Overall, you need to do as much as you can to steer your character away from doing the same thing or being too much like the standard tv or movie characters, or even like a lot of the ones here on PA. You want to make that person as different as you know how.

Please explain to me how stubbornness is a strength. I dont' get that. In most societies and cultures, stubbornness is seen as a weakness. If you see it as a strength, tell me how. Also, she's only 20. Its unlikely she would be good with a wand and with potions both. That is more the "speed" for someone who is a bit older.

I'd like her to have a stronger patronus. If you remember the books, harry's memories were really challenged until he found the one thing that was as close to bliss as he ever knew.

The Mirror of Erised is supposed to help you figure out what your character wants most. She seems a bit shallow if all she wants out of life is, really, to be a good person and to have this one person in her life. Maybe she needs to be a bit more deeply developed.

Lets start with some of those things, at least for my opinions.

k.

stubbornness was a mistake, it was suppose to be a wekaness but i screwed up and stuck it where it shouldnt have been , as for her age its supposed to be 22 not 20 but ive fixed that as well and tried my bestest to fix the others you mentioned . im exhausted.

much, much better! good job. I will accept this, but on two conditions.

First, the sword cannot be a magical item. i will allow it as a muggle item, as a family heirloom.

Second, you do need to go to magical artifacts and claim the magical bottle of water. That will help you ferret out a bit what it does and does not do.

Accepted and sorted into grads.

k.

yeah thats what i was going to claim it as a family heirloom or just a muggle martial arts sword.
okay im claiming my bottle of water.
