La Bandida Professora
Name: Kanon Kuwahara

Age: 26

Gender: Female

Occupation: Professional singer. She mostly preforms in small venues, despite being offered larger stages to appear on. The genres she tends to work in are Rock, Pop, and occasionally metal. She also does covers of famous songs, her favorite bands to cover being The Beatles, Panic! At the Disco, and Journey. Her most famous cover, though, is of "Barracuda" by Heart, which she has learned to play on the guitar.

Interests/Hobbies: Practicing singing, shopping for new outfits, experimenting with her hair, and learning to play the guitar. She also has a soft spot for action movies and origami, sometimes combining the two activities.

Appearance: Slim, fit, and exuding charm, Kanon is used to many men giving her looks. While she does her best to look attractive, she doesn't flaunt her features by any stretch. She keeps herself relatively modest most of the time, only wearing more risque outfits while performing, and even those are tame by many standards. She enjoys the attention her body brings her, but she'd much rather have people focus on her talent than that. As a result, it is most likely that you will see her wearing jeans and a blouse, or a comfortable, yet practical, dress. Her favorite thing about herself is her deep black hair. She revels in trying new styles, changing it every few days. For the most part, she keeps it long, but has been known to trim it down on a whim, even changing its color at times.

However, her most striking, and well known, feature is not something tangible at all. It is her voice. Even just speaking, it carries a melodic quality, something that is vastly enhanced when she starts to sing. Her vocal range is quite large, and she can produce notes of greatly differing qualities, from subtle low notes to high notes that cut through all other sounds.

Personality: When off the stage, she appears to be a very mild-mannered person, never stealing the spotlight from others, and being generally pleasant to be around. As soon as she gets on the stage, though, everything is about her. It's almost like she becomes a completely different person, strutting around and owning the spotlight. Whenever she puts on a show, she does her best to entertain, not caring so much about modesty and instead allowing herself to come across as a more wild person than she actually is.

That's just what's on the surface though. Inside is completely different story. Even when she is portraying herself as an unassuming, modest lady of refinement, she still revels in any and all attention she gets. Praise is like a drug to her, and she seeks it out whenever possible. She tends to be very subtle about it, like asking fans how they enjoyed her latest show, or asking other's opinions on her latest hairstyle. Subtlety is thrown out the window as soon as she steps on stage, and she has been known to actively attempt to draw praise from her audience with poses and asking things like "Do you want more?"

History: In her childhood, her parents forced good music into her ears every waking second. She grew up listening to records of the classics. When she was a bit older, her parents pushed her into joining a children's choir, which she quickly became the star of. Within the first week of being a part of it, the director discovered her natural talent and began to nurture it. Throughout her entire school career, she cultivated her skill, staying in as many music-oriented extracurricular activities as possible. When she finally reached high school, she became the head of the band club, organizing various shows at assemblies and festivals that showcased their talents. Well, rather her talent. The rest of the club was not mistaken that they were anything but second banana to the rising star that was Kanon.

After graduating from Kasuhayashi, Kanon immediately pursued a job in the music business. It didn't take many auditions before a local bar picked her up as a weekly show, despite her young age. Within a month, she was already drawing a sizable crowd, packing the bar to capacity every time she performed. Her parents were extremely proud of her, supporting her choice to continue following a singing career.

It wasn't long before she started getting various offers, including record deals, larger venues, and a plethora of other contracts. Through the expert guidance of the bar owner who had hired her in the first place, she made the decision to turn down most of the offers, but did sign onto a label just to release a single album, which hit store shelves around the time she turned 20. It wasn't a huge success, but still set her up with a sizable sum of money, which she now uses to live a comfortable life.

Six years later and not much has changed. She has refined her talents, putting on performances that cause jaws to hit the floor, and has released a few more albums, which were more successful than her first. Despite all this, she never left the small bar scene, choosing its coziness over much bigger opportunities. Though everyone of her fans is convinced that she would do phenomenally if she just signed onto a big label, she refuses to do so, saying that it "isn't her style."

Weapons/Equipment/Combat Skill: Kanon has been in a few bar fights, but only as a minor participant. She knows a few basic self-defense moves, but only as a precaution. Most of the time, her venues will provide some sort of security for her, so she doesn't have to resort to fighting very often. Bodyguards tend to take care of any riffraff that get a bit too aggressive around her. Still, she can bloody a nose or two, and knows how to wield a mic stand as a hammer of sorts.

Initial Persona: Kamisori Onnanoko, also known as Razor Girl, has a mostly feminine form with overly long limbs. Her torso looks out of proportion to the rest of her body, with an extremely skinny waist and small bust. Her arms are very thin, and actually become a blade on the back side, and her forearms have very long protrusions coming off of them in the shape of stretched out razor blades. Her legs are thin as well, though the hips are very thick. Razor blades also come off at her knees, and her feet are naught but knife blades. Her head is in a elongated teardrop shape, with various blades tracing the contours, the whole thing looking like a very strange helmet of sort. Her whole body has a slick sheen to it, making her look like she is made of a strange metal. This effect is heightened as many of her joints appear to be powered by hydraulics, making Razor Girl look like a very advanced, very strange robot.

Underlined text is in a different language... English, unless otherwise specified.
Regular old dialogue is supposed to be spoken in Japanese 'cause this RP takes place in the land of the rising sun, don'tchaknow.
