Izanami

Izanami Fukazawa (a.k.a. Ami)

Questions for my character: What is your best quality? My way with a sword, lets just say years of reading mother's old scrolls and secret combat lessons has really paid off. Favourtite music, colour, movie, food?

The sound of a waterfall
Lilac!
I think that's what Wen was talking about, seems really cool, a show and a movie is basicually the same thing right? just not in theatre like it is here? Speaking of theatre I love watching a seasons final winter" my sister says it's too "overdramatic" but I caught her crying more than me at times, she really sucks at lying.
Soup, just any, I love soup, so comforting

Best momory from childhood? I don't remember it very well but I do rememebr my mother handing me something precious and giving me a hug. I don't quite remember what it was but I know that it was important to me. Most embarressing moment from school? I'm homeschooled, but probably when I was half-alseep from fighting the night earlier, thought the teacher was sparring me instead of getting me to do my exercise. What happened after was me apologisng to my teacher who was now on the floor and my grounding. Don't worry she was okay just surprised I could kick from that distance. Describe the first job you ever had I've never had a proper one since my father has never let me, but does sparring in the evenings count? Ten years from now what are you doing? Away from my father and competeing as a world famous sword weilder and combat fighter. I'll be the first non-magic user fighter too! My dream date would be with----doing what? ...with Wen and having a picinic at night together. He's just so sweet and a great cook, so it would be so nice to just hang together and eat some great food! Its the last day on Garda, in 5 words or less, what are you doing? I'll stay with my sister

Personal history

Izanami was born on the 21st March 2002 to a wealthy family in the Death Kingdom. Her family is known for their magical specialty and their powerness, but she herself doesn't have any magic. She grows up heavily protected by her family, escpially after the death of her mother, who also didn't have magic. Ami grew up extremely bored and somewhat isolated and with pretty low self-esteem. Izanami eventually met Angel, who has a massive love for science and inventions, so they offered to make Izanami a staff for her that's more accessible for her. Izanami and Angel become fast friends. One day after sneaking out to go and hang out with Angel, she comes across a fighting ring and becomes obsessed with the idea of fighting in it.

Mental Trauma

Izanami didn't grow up with good self-esteem, due to her complicated relationship with her family. Her mother was killed in battle when she was very young and as a result her father became deeply protective over Izanami, believing that if he didn't protect her she'd up with a similar fate. As a result, Izanami feels like her father perceives her as abnormal or weak due to the kinds of things he says about her having no magic, and so, she grew up thinking for a while, that she was all of that. Now that she's started fighting, she isolates herself from her father and does everything she can to separate herself from the image that she believes her father sees her as.

Izanami is chaotic good. She was a lawful moral code and tries to do good things and be a good person, but she doesn't mind being mischievous and breaking rules to have fun.

Taboos

What Izanami really wants at first is to be like her mother. Her mother was a fighter and she believes that in order to disprove what her father thinks about her, she needs to be like her mother (this is her lie) What Izanami really needs in the story however, is to discover who she is, away from what her father thinks and who her mother was (this is the truth that she needs to discover).

Vices & Personality flaws
