Character
Name: Suzuki Adelheid
Series: Katekyou Hitman Reborn!
Timeline: For simplicity's sake, she's been in limbo since her last time in Route. Chapter 292 after speaking to Enma was where she was pulled form last time and I would like to keep it that way. She will be keeping her memories of Johto from the first time with some of it being fuzzy.

Personality: Suzuki as a whole does not have many layers to her. She was initially perceived by Tsuna as a scary, intimidating figure simply through her appearance. And his assumption was correct.
The first major look we got at her was when she challenged Hibari Kyouya to claim the Disciplinary Committee's meeting room. Despite Hibari being one of the most intimidating characters in the manga, she paid little attention to his threats and even went as far as to fight him after he refused. She has a habit of using force to get what she wants and very few people are likely to go against that kind of threat (which, in the long run, is completely understandable). Even in battle, though, she manages to keep up the collected front.
While quick to get into a fight with those who question her or her family, Suzuki is shown to be quite intelligent, able to tell the entire story of the Shimon Family without batting an eyelash, and perceptive to the emotions and details of her family members. She is quick to point out to Gokudera the reason he doesn't "get" Shitt P., saying that he simply doesn't understand her, though she has been trying to communicate with him from the day she arrived at the school. She was able to hint at just how he could make it easier to understand her so they could work together. She is actually shown to be very personable around other people if the situation calls for it.
All of this, however, was just feeding into a ploy that the Shimon Family had set up for the inheritance ceremony of Vongola Decimo. Her loyalty and ability to keep the operation under wraps was vital to getting to where they needed to be in order to restore the Shimon's former glory. And she takes this quite seriously. Her fierce protection of Enma and the information she later gives at the ceremony proves that the family is her top priority. Her pride in the family is also an indication of this, and it is assumed that she probably holds a very high rank within them. She is described as the Passion of the Shimon, due to her unwavering loyalty and beliefs in what the family has been through and stands for. Like Enma, she feels that the pain of the first Shimon Boss must be felt by the Vongola in order to, perhaps, bring about the closure that is needed for their ravaged clan. When it is found out that the Shimon were tricked, she wasn't so quick to believe it, still upholding the feelings that she had when everything was still a big game to her. Her resolve eventually cracks, revealing that Suzuki is, in fact, something of a human.
In quick review, Suzuki is intimidating and occasionally violent, thought she knows very much about what is going on around her and what has happened in the past. She holds a high rank in her family and is quite protective of Enma, though she will step out of the way if asked. Lastly, if there is a plot or plan within the family, she makes sure to keep communication with the other members clear and can put up a friendly face for those who are not involved and/or will be involved in the future.
Strengths/Weaknesses: Suzuki has a knack for being able to keep information under-wraps. She isn't the type to blindly run into a situation without some kind of preparation behind it-- and she isn't the type to blindly trust a stranger without knowing just what she might be getting into. She is the master at being able to lead people on, whether that's pushing them away or leading them into trusting her. Reading people close to her and knowing what makes them tick also serve as one of her stronger talents. Other "strengths" would be her general analytic abilities and combat prowess. She knows how to focus on a goal with almost nothing being able to pull her away from what she wants until it has been fully accomplished.
As for weaknesses, Suzuki is extremely judgmental. She is also a bit... um, one-track minded if she wants something bad enough. While her loyalty is good, it is very hard for even the truth to sway her from her original goal. It literally has to take something tangible and right up in her face to show her that what she is doing should be stopped. She also has an extremely short temper that can and will interfere with her relationships due to the fact that she is so unyielding and ready to tangle with someone should they cross her.

First Person Sample:
[The video feed opens to the glancing profile of what should be a familiar face to some of the citizens of Johto. She has been gone for several months now, but Suzuki's exterior attitude hasn't changed a bit.]
So I am one of them now, hm?
[She turns to face the 'Gear head-on, lips twitching into a not-quite-a-frown for a moment as she speaks.]
It would seem that I have returned to Johto. [A beat.] Strange. I never thought that I would have the pleasure. And yet I don't really remember ever leaving in the first place.
[She pauses again, unable to really recall what happened before she left--]
Would someone wish to enlighten me on the situation? My memory is a touch foggy.
And if you expect to be handsomely rewarded for helping me, you are sadly mistaken.
[From the corner of the screen peeks a pair of blue eyes framed by a red and yellow point.]
Snooo....
[Here we go again with Suzuki and her weird-ass Pokemon. She glances to it and wrinkles her nose.]
I expect a briefing to come in a timely manner. Thank you.
[And the 'Gear shuts off.]
Third Person Sample:
Odd it was to be back in Johto. Adelheid's memory still faded in and out with the events that had occurred before her leave... But it was like she had been sleeping and just managed to wake up with the woman looming over her claiming to be her mother.
"Strange..." She mused to herself, eyeing some of the newer trainers who were both confused and happily bopping about the Newbark commons, outside of the Lab and the house in which they woke up in. Fresh faces, "Oh, well."
Pointed boots made purposeful steps on the grass, leading to the road she would follow on to Cherrygrove in the manner she had done-- oh, say, a little over a year ago for the first time? A road traveled by many only to lead to more on the way to the highest ranks of Johto.
"Snooooorunt!!"
Oh, right.
"You should learn to keep up," she sighed to the Pokemon she had received. This one wasn't nearly as competent as her old set, but a strong hand made all the difference. Suzuki turned on a heel and crouched to meet the timid Ice-type almost eye to beady eye, "I have great expectations for you, you know. It would be wise for you to meet them as quickly as possible." Always the supportive trainer, clearly. Snorunt looked up to her and sort of tilted herself onto one tiny foot to almost look curious.
"I may not remember all of it, but you and I must be a team. You will listen to me and you will benefit from obeying my commands."
A twinge could be felt in her chest as she spoke. It was just like lecturing anyone at home. But this time it was just... easier. Like training Pokemon was just the right thing for her to be doing in her spare time.
"You want to grow stronger, don't you?"
Snorunt gave her an awkward sort of bowing-nod, "Sno!" Chittering after her with all the gusto she could muster.
"I see that you understand..." Adelheid could feel the corners of her lips threatening to quirk up into a smile. She stopped herself promptly, going back to her usual impassive scowl, "Come along."
Rising, Adelheid held herself with all the posture and command of a general leading her new, tiny army on to victory. The almost-smile from before signaled that she was already getting too attached. That maybe she had missed this place a little and was thankful to have it back.
... She would have to move quick and find a Caterpie to defeat.
Unless she wanted to get too sentimental.
And no one wanted that.
