Character's Name: Tira
Series: Soul Calibur
Timeline: Pre Soul Calibur 4
Why did your character accept the invitation?: Tira accepted the invitation in order to hunt down the mythical blade, Soul Edge. She desires the sword so she can become it’s new wielder but was defeated by the Azure Knight who is trying to destroy the demon blade using it’s twin, Soul Caliber.
Character's occupation: Fighter
Character's skills/abilities/talents: Tira is quite proficient in using any sort of blade or tool as weapons, but her weapon of choice is the large, ring-like hoop she carries with her into battle called the Aiselne Drossel! Sharp all around like a sword, Tira wields the Aiselne Drossel with relative ease and precision in a deadly dance she performs with it in her grip. Not much is known about the weapon she uses besides the fact that it is dull in the inner circumference of the ring, allowing Tira to perform some defying stunts and swing through the ring in combat. The Aiselne Drossel’s name is an intentional misspelling of "Eiserne Drossel", meaning "Iron Thrush" in German.
As for Tira’s abilities, she seems almost super human considering she can go weeks on end without food and move as swiftly as the murder of crows that travel with her! She is very athletic and rather strong for her age, knowing how to take care of herself thanks to her less than proper life style. Tira is known to be a rather adept climber, able to climb trees to sides of coliseums with her bare hands! Mostly though, Tira nearly has a sixth sense when it comes down to tracking down the prey she seeks. Whether it is human or not, not many whom the Angel of Death marks escapes her wrath leaving some to believe she is rather good tracker or ranger in her regards.
In all due truth, Tira contains no super powers that are beyond her human-like nature despite how inhuman she may seem.
Personality: Tira is frankly 'bi-polar', able to switch from a more passive-aggressive personality to a highly violent-aggressive one under the drop of a hat! These two personalities of Tira are still quite methodical and sinister despite the stark change between them. Tira's first personality is quite child-like and nearly sweet for she seems to have the inner personality of a young girl rather than the heartless killer she appears to be. As for her second personality, Tira comes across as a viscous and highly dangerous to meet. Her lust for bloodshed becomes quite high for this side of her personality is very confrontational in a maniac berserker kind of way. Balancing the two personalities for Tira is quite an effort since seems to not be able too do such since she keeps flip-flopping to other side. It is because of her personality alone that makes her a threat whenever others are near, no knows when which Tira is going to slay them first.
Strengths: Tira’s bizarre fighting style allows her to gain the upper hand upon her foes because of how quickly she can switch her fighting technique. Depending on her moods, her attacks shift from strong bone crushing blows to childish taps while wielding the Aiselne Drossel. Her lunacy is perhaps her strongest asset as well as her weakest asset for she is sometimes completely oblivious of the world around her and shows no remorse for killing.
Weaknesses: Much like everyone else, Tira is her own worst enemy! She is too prideful, too cocky and usually throws caution into the wind before realizing she made a grave error or too! She a reckless little devil with a fiery personality that can land her in a sea of troubles if she is not careful, the girl’s loose lips will be her end some day for Tira does not know when she should hold her tongue.
She does not know what fear is, she laughs at death and literally mocks it without any worry in her voice. However, her nickname among the assassins is the ‘Angel of Death’ does not indicate that she is immortal as some think of her to be. Like any other person, Tira can become ill and feverish like and suffer the same agony and woes of any normal human.
It is just usually such woes do not faze her too much.
Her own double personality is also a weakness as well for not many would be willing to be friends with such a two-faced jester like her.
Third-Person Sample:
The forests were dark and quiet during the night with only faint whispers heard from within the shadows. Villagers from the nearby town knew better than to travel into the depths of this dangerous forest but one girl seemed to ignore all such dangers with a twisted grin upon her lips. She loved the night, she fed upon it’s darkness and made this lawless land her home. She was content to live within the outskirts of civilization, content to be nothing more than a wild beast. This girl fed off the land and devoured all who dared to trek within her woods. Human and creature alike fell to her psychotic bloodlust, both feeding the pooling desire for destruction.
Tira would maim the faces of her victims with such glee, her violet eyes nearly glowing within the darkness as she plucked the noses off her victims faces. She always found it funny to stare into the skinless faces in total awe of the bloody meat that lies beneath the pale flesh. To her people look much better without their skin. She would play with her corpses, breaking off their limbs one by one in careful scrutiny. However, soon such games began to bore this misguided angel when rumors of this blade was spoken within that humble village.
When the people thought it was safe to speak, Tira would be nearby to eavesdrop within their conversations while nestled within the shadows. They spoke about this blade, a fabled sword that is said to be merged with all the impurities and evils of the world. A blade so powerful that the world could be cut asunder by it’s might. Such a weapon interested the wicked child but it wasn’t until these rumors began to speak about the wielder of Soul Edge, that Tira began to seek it.
“Soul Edge, huh?” She giggled lightly as she glanced down at the square of the nameless town. Lying across the roof of one of many houses nearby, the impish child smiled cruelly over at the two knights guarding the nearby chapel. They were busy gossiping, speaking idly about the Azure Knight and the blackened beasts that both wreak havoc upon the once peaceful countryside. Tira watched them both in pure silence as they continued to speak, her Aiselne Drossel within her purple-gloved hands.
First-Person Sample: Tch, this city is boring lookin’…
But least it’s not as borin’ as it looks! There are all sorts of people rummagin’ about, more people than trees! Whatever, I am after one thing and that’s the sword, I need to get it before that stupid knight finds it. If he finds it, he’ll tear it apart but I can find it, it will be mine! No one could stop me then, I’ll be able to do whatever the hell I want…
The Guild will probably come for me soon, I gotta get Soul Edge quickly!
No more waiting…Teehee! This is going to be so much fun~!
