Alongside the move to Ship 2, I've decided that if we are going to bring back Team RP, that I would scratch all of my existing characters and start over fresh. This thread exists to keep track of the written historical profiles of the characters that I posted here over the last few years. All new characters I am going to release are going to be new versions of all of these old characters, but there is no guarantee that ALL of the characters archived here will be featured in newer (2017-on) RP sessions. I am going to be playing with a significantly smaller overall cast from this point. However, if you are here because you want to see what these characters were like pre-2017, then scroll on. Thanks to the multidimensional shenanigans of the PSO2 universe, you never know if some of these characters might appear as minor or temporary plot characters (although counting on it would be unwise.) Please also keep in mind that there are more characters that I did not write profiles for. This is mostly to clean up the threads of the now scratched character from the biography board.

Name: Esther Ria Kuromori Race: Newman Gender: Female Age: 17 Homeworld: Oracle Ship 10. Known Family: - NM-3324 (Mother, Biological; Deceased) - Izanagi Val Kuromori (Father, Adoptive) - Rylai Kuromori (Mother, Adoptive; Deceased) - Kasumi Ada Kuromori (Sister, Adoptive) Background: Born and raised on the ARKS Ship Nathuiz, Esther is the child of "NM-3324", an illegally created Newman that had been seized, analyzed, and integrated into ARKS 30 years prior. Despite being perfectly functional, mentally, "NM-3324" suffered from constant medical issues, presumably due to improper splicing procedure. She was extremely stubborn, and served as an ARKS operative for 5 years before the loss of both legs and half of her left arm forced her into an early retirement. Intent of leaving a legacy, she willingly submitted herself to continued experimentation under ARKS authority, which eventually led to the birth of Esther. NM-3324 died shortly after childbirth, presumably due to complications related to her condition. At the time, ARKS was facing numerous problems from a combination of constant Darker attacks and political warfare. Therefore, Esther was offered to the wealthy Kuromori family, of the Oracle-Kuromori City Planning Firm for adoption. Having adopted an unusually dark-skinned Deuman named Kasumi, the couple believed that a second child, as well as a sister for Kasumi would be a fine addition to the family. Esther has remained close to her sister Kasumi, helping her through the death of Rylai and many varied stressful situations. Most recently, she was found running from OLGA scientist Perrault, The CAST Hako, and a 'machine' only known as "Unit 19", heavily injured, confused, and frightened. After a lengthy chase, she was rescued by Aoi Nagareboshi and Aria and is currently found spending her time relaxing in the Conventis Navis rooftop pool. She refuses to speak about the events that have led up to her capture. Appearance and Personality: Esther took after NM-3324 in facial structure, eye color, and hair color, with an almost childlike face, dandelion yellow hair, and bright yellow eyes. She is short, but somewhat stockier and more solidly built then most other Newman, which tends to set her apart from the rest. She is stubborn, independent, and somewhat bratty, but always seems to exude a high level of optimism. She often comes off as naive and somewhat gullible, but is fast on her feet and seems smarter then she lets on. She has an innately natural affinity with lighting techs, and can pull things off with them that often leaves many people surprised, confused, or shocked (in a literal sense.) Sometimes, she seems to have an unusual electrical charge about her. Relationship With Kasumi: (TBC) |

Name: Aithne Fiona Schrödinger Race: Human Gender: Female Blood Type: AB- (Modified) Age: Inconclusive (Database claims 23) Known Family: - The Schrödinger family (who they are is anyone's guess) Affiliation: ARKS; Officer (Lieutenant Major, Tactical Warrant; Strategist) Background: Aside from two suddenly appearing entries in the Oracle Citizen and ARKS databases, Aithne simply 'appeared' at an ARKs recruitment office one day. Nobody had ever really seen her before, and nobody at the time dared to ask the rather large and imposing woman with a drinking flask and a strange accent what dark corner of the Oracle fleet she had skulked from. Aithne claims to be a brat from a darker-raided research station that was at one point situated around one of the planets that the fleet used to frequent. From there, she claims to have lived in an orphanage complex somewhere in the cities, up to the point she became old enough to join the ARKs at 18. However, Aithne seems much more experienced and knowledgeable then she seems to be. She is, to date, one of the youngest and fastest ARKS members to advance through the chain, stopping her rapid advancement at Lieutenant Major at the age of 19 with an additional warrant in Tactics. She hasn't advanced any since she started working with Officer Mara Lewis as an assistant and secretary. She has a strange gauntlet-like device she wears on her left arm at all times. She hasn't necessarly specified what it is, let alone what it actually does. Personality: Aithne to most people not working under her is a laid back and apparently lazy woman with a major drinking habit. To people underneath her, Aithne is strict, cross, and ruthless. To other co-workers, she generally just comes across as ill-tempered. However, she seems far more well-mannered around Officer Lewis, which many people find unusual because Aithne and Mara never did seem like the type that would get along. Despite being a massive pain in the ass, her talents for tactical command, as well as a fervent dislike for leaving tasks unattended, Aithne has managed to command at least some respect within the ARKs cadre. Recent Events: Aithne continues to work very closely with Officer Mara Lewis, although a recent and sudden appearance into the fleet known as “Gestalt Schrödinger” has brought up some questions about her personal life and her sudden 'appearance'. |

Name: Amie (Ayame Himura) Race: Deuman Class: Braver/Ranger Gender: Female Age: Inconclusive Homeworld: Oracle Fleet Ship 10 – Nathuiz Known Family: Inconclusive Affiliation: (Former) OLGA; Scientist Personal Profile: Basic Information Amie is the current incarnation of former OLGA scientist Ayame Himura; one of the many losses as a result of OLGA's forced experimentation-on-defection policy. Amie was created when OLGA attempted to forcefully merge a Darker core of unmatched purity and quality with Ayame's body. The experiment was carried out successfully; Ayame survived the operation, but it quickly became apparent that there were some very critical complications that manifested themselves almost immediately after she woke up. OLGA had anticipated that her mind and memories would not survive the operation, which would leave her a hollow and easily malleable shell. However, Ayame's mind, memories, and knowledge survived, horribly fragmented instead of outright destroyed. “Amie” is a name she pieced together from fragments of her old name. More problematic was that her negative opinion of OLGA had survived, which gave her drive to escape. Surprisingly, her intellect wasn't fragmented nearly as horribly as her mind and memories. Amie is almost as intelligent as her former self. Her ability to understand and apply concepts was an unfortunate casualty of the fragmentation process. The result is that Amie has high levels of intelligence that she can't effectively apply or wield. Her method of speech represents the intellect/understanding gap fairly clearly. She is perfectly capable of speaking the OCL (Oracle Common Language) and does so well. However, she speaks much like someone who lacks familiarity and does not quite know how to apply her speech concicely. She speaks in a heavily enunciated fashion and often constructs her sentences in unusual ways. OLGA's worse problem was that activating the core in her body imbued her with powers that were only known to be exhibited by Darkers. Her first and most frequently exhibited talent is the 'point-to-point subspace travel' ability the Darkers have, more commonly referred to as 'teleportation'. She has only exhibited one other Darker-related power to this date, and that is the ability to generate a Darchyme-styled dark energy field. Her Darker abilities have a purple color rather then deep red. Lastly, there is a belief that over time, Ayame's memories might slowly redevelop, although that is currently an unconfirmed belief left to time. Personality: Amie combines the intelligence and experience of an adult with the understanding, comprehension, and focus of a child. Optimistic, curious, and exhibiting a degree of innocence, Amie has been called many things: “Annoying child”, “Creepy”, “A pain in the ass”, and more... However, she never lets any of it bother her... She often suffers from boredom and will constantly go out to try new things... One of her most recent projects was ice art within Naberous Tundra... Study: Teleportation Amie's teleportation derives from the same point-to-point subspace shifting technique that Darkers use to appear on planet surfaces. While ARKS is still unsure as to how it works, travel is virtually instantaneous and allows Amie to switch her location as quickly as she can think. She additionally can choose to bring whoever she is touching with her, (at her own discretion), and with focus and effort, can also shift any beings within a sizable area. While teleportation appears to be virtually instantaneous in realspace, Amie experiences time dilation when traveling over especially long distances, as time spent in subspace is theoretically 'longer' then time spent in realspace. As a direct consequence, Amie must expend physical energy to open and travel through these subspace gates. Teleportation quickly becomes tiring, and the cost increases over large distances. Amie never travels directly from planet to planet; she simply teleports between the frequently arriving and departing campships that travel between the planets and the Oracle ships. Even with this energy-saving method, Amie still can't manage traveling between planets all that often. She often stays on one planet for a few days before teleporting somewhere else. ARKS campships have often found entire food ration stores raided, as Amie must eat a significant amount after particularly long teleportation runs. Second, traveling through subspace rifts can be somewhat distressing, as Amie is not a true darker. The mental and physical stress of subspace travel combined with the energy cost is one of the prime reasons she frequently experiences intense nightmares. The hostile nature plus the fragility of the Deuman body has left Amie with injuries, especially after extended travel through subspace. |

Name: Zakara “Tau” Takahashi Race: Newman Class: Force, Fire Specialization Gender: Female Age: 24 Homeworld: Pioneer 2 (Refugee) Known Family: Yuna Takahashi (Mother), Lars Takahashi, (Father) Medical: Photon Sensitivity Syndrome Affiliation: Arks; Science Team, Military Ranks: Science Team: Researcher, Security Clearance Level 2 Military: Master Private ![]() Personal Profile: (At the moment, to be considered tentative while I revise it.) Personality Highly dedicated, quiet, and thoughtful; typical qualities associated with Newman. People who deal with her regularly find a bit more; her personality can be prone to sudden and rapid change, especially in specific emotional situations (This is believed to be attached to her Photon Sensitivity). She is often willing to provide aid to people in need, sometimes excessively. She is marginally social, generally uncomfortable around large groups. Often attracted to large concentrations of photonic energy. Prefers the nickname "Tau" rather then the use of her real name. Immigration Background Zakara is one of three-hundred refugees that were recovered on an escape craft believed to have been from a ship known as “Pioneer 2”. ARKs Immigration reported that the ship’s administrator claimed the ship was sucked through a vortex of unknown origin. Ship was collected by Nathuiz; Processing lasted four months; immigration licenses were issued one month after. Zakara is reported to have been successfully naturalized into the Oracle Fleet and is no longer considered a refugee. Current Status: {6/26/2013} As part of a dual-assignment agreement, Miss Takahashi works for both the ARKS Photon Sciences department as well as the ARKS Military as an official field liaison between the military and scientific branches of ARKS. She additionally takes numerous additional jobs in her spare time. Other Notes: Some refugees claiming to be from Gurhal state that she looks very similar to a newman girl that lived deep in the forests of Neudaiz. Whether or not this is true is unconfirmed. Outdated
