[b]nabari no ou[/b] -- [i]shijima kurookano[/i]»»Overall Appearance:
Ophelia has often been described as ghostly. Maybe this lead to her love of ghost pokemon, her love of the dark pokemon in general, but the fact of the matter is that it's not an unpopular opinion that she's a bit on the ominous side. Pass beside her in a dark alleyway and you're sure to get chills. With long, flowing hair a silvery white color, and her skin even paler than that, the only thing that gives her color is her amber-golden eyes. Translucent qualities such as these do sort of lead to a spirit-like appearance, but that doesn't make it any less insulting. It's not her fault she doesn't tan! She's even been mistaken for an albino more than a few times. Sure, some would see these features as intriguing, in a child-of-the-moon, never-touched-by-sunlight sort of way, but Ophey tends to fend off such kind people with her abrasive personality.
The girl has always been small, and if you mention it, you're sure to get a kick to the shin. It really gets to her, and she often tries to compensate for her size with her strength. A whooping four feet, eightand a half!inches, she doesn't look intimidating at first. In fact, she looks rather frail and light. But that's before you see her legendary scowl, the way she rolls her eyes at you, how she bares her sharp teeth before the battle, and her icy chuckle that'll make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. Under this misleading cover of a girl that needs to be taken care of, Ophey has worked up a decent tone of muscle in her legs, as well as a little in her upper arms. This is mostly from running; her favorite way of relieving stress. But it's also from the fights she's gotten into- because she just can't resist.
As stated above, she does kind of have a creepy, yet small-and-hopeless appearance. So she tends to make up for that by wearing "edgy" clothing. Stuff that can make her look tough! This gives a wide range of punk attire to gothic dresses, anything to make people not question her training abilities. After all, she wants to be the very best liek no one ever was, and to do that, she's gotta look the part.

[/ul]»»Strengths:
^^
[/ul]»»Weaknesses:
** Training for hours may not be a "habit" as it is a "hobby". She wants to be the very best, and she will be! So that requires some work. However, even if she sounds liek a drill sergeant in the field, she's actually very caring and motherly to her pokemon. She likes them more than she likes most people around her, and if anyone sees her with pokemon, they'll know she has a little bit of good in there under all that bitchiness.
[/ul]»»Personality:
Miss Sharper is not to be messed with. She's a hardcore mess of a girl, one that has only one focus and one goal; winning. That's all she wants. This has lead her to be more than a little abrasive in her personality, as she's decided that maybe she doesn't need others because they'll just most likely drag her down. So the girl comes off as unfriendly, cold, and cruel. In fact, she's just flat out rude and terrible as a person when you first meet her. She doesn't want to get close to people, no, she wants to beat them into the dust. Surprisingly, she's survived on this attitude, as it turns out she's fine talking to herself and her pokemon. That's all she really needs, right?
People annoy her. They have so many flaws, herself included. So many things that she can nit-pickily dissect and bring to the table. To those people that stick around that she can't stomp out of her life at the first blow, she becomes a bully. She is a bully. Ophelia likes to make her enemies cry, or at least scare the pee out of them a little. From pranking, to tripping, to pants-ing, to name-calling, to just plain out harassment if she's not the pokemon master yet, she's surely the bully master. She even gets into many physical fights, and I'm not talking about pokemon battles. I'm talking about hair-pulling, fist-throwing fights. Ophey can not back down from any challenge, maybe people will see that as a weakness, but denying it a challenge she sees as being an even greater weakness.
Under her mean-girl disposition, she's really locked up. Ophelia wouldn't really be able to open up to anyone easily, because why should she? Why should they know? Why should they care? Her problems and needs are hers to take care of, after all. So she's shielded. Nobody dares to get close to her anyway because of her attitude, and maybe that's why she pushes people away so immediately. Under the bullying, Ophey is really insecure and sensitive about a lot of things, one of the top-ten topics being her size. But sensitivity is a sign of weakness! So she's never show it, no way! She has to look tough and unfazed if she wants to be the best, so she'll stay that way.
Let's say that someone does get past her shield, an extremely rare occurrence, what will they find? They'll be surprised that underneath it all Ophelia is really loving, caring, and motherly, especially to her pokemon. She really cares what's happening to them, what's happening around her, and she happens to have a protective stance on people she cares about. Sometimes she has a horrible way of showing it, liek "Hey! I'm the only one that can bully them liek that!" But if she likes someone they can figure it out. To those that can't make it this far, well, she's just your average hellbent rival figure that'll fuck you up! How does that sound?

»»History:
One brother is on his way to be a pokemon expert. Another is a renounced breeder. The third a popular coordinator. And her sister? A member of the oh-so-esteemed Pergure Order. It's a wonder Ophelia despises them all. All of her siblings and herself have always constantly been in a fight for the top, to prove who's on head of the food chain in the family, to see who is the best. Her siblings have always been attention-hungry, bragging at the littlest moment of being in the spotlight, and Ophey herself is even guilty of that. It's a wonder she grew up power hungry, bent on beating everyone. She grew up needing to be the best, because that's what everyone around her was trying to do.
Her parents were divorced, but she doesn't really blame them for herself or her sibling's bad behavior. She remembers wrestling with her brothers over the littlest aggravations; they were always a bit rough. She'd be questioned when she came into school with a black eye, or bruised ribs, but she'd always just smirk and say that she left more marks than she received. Her struggles at home made it into her school life, as she always had to be on-top at school too. And if a student was better than her? She'd hate them. She's loathe them. However this aspiration to be the best did lead her to study quite a bit, giving her sufficiently greater knowledge of pokemon than the average teen.
She had a greater know-how to train, how to sufficiently make one's pokemon stronger, and as she studied the topic she knew she was going to be a trainer. Perhaps it was the violence of it all she found attractive, but whatever the means she had to excel in her own means; she couldn't just follow in a sibling's footsteps. Speaking of siblings, fighting with them also leaked into her school life. She often resulted to fighting when approached by a proper challenge or your every day bully. She wouldn't be bullied for being smart, she wouldn't be bullied for looking beat up everyday, no, instead she became the bully. The bully queen, even! Anything to keep those insects out of her way, knocking them off the ladder of success so she can climb her way to the top.
Detention was her usual hang out place, or even in-school-suspension. Sure, she had the best grades, but not the best reputation anymore. When she graduated she was dying to get out of the house and away from her siblings, so she can have her own adventures with her
