~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Physical appearance:
Radha is a short woman, measuring in at five feet and three inches, and seems more like a frail doll rather than the combatant she is. The woman's arms and shoulders have only the vaguest hint of musculature while her hands are tipped in delicate fingers that might be found on a pianist. Her torso is equally thin and her small bosom and hips give her only the vaguest hint of a "womanly" figure. Radha's legs are well-muscled for a woman of her stature and, in contrast to her arms, are built like a long-distance runner's with powerful, coiled musculature and tendons like taut steel cables running beneath smooth skin.

Radh'a face is surprisingly beautiful, with smooth cheeks and a small, slightly hooked nose accentuating a pair of thin lips and chocolate colored eyes. Her hair is cut short and fall down the back of her neck in a mass of jagged spikes. Three tiny silver piercings rest in each of the woman's ears, spaced apart evenly starting from the woman's earlobe. Tattoos of varying tribal designs dance across Radha's skin everywhere from her spine to her forearm, all inked barely darker than her bronze skin. These tattoos seem to catch light and reflect it as if they were made of metal rather than ink, and seem to glow when exposed to full sunlight.


Clothing/Accessories:
Radha's clothing is simple and rarely changes, consisting only of a strapless black dress with the same symbols from her tattoos sewn in silver fabric along it's length. The dress exposes leaves Radha's shoulders and upper back exposed, though crossing threads of gold hold the garment to her body. Slits run up the dress on each hip to allow the woman her full range of motion and are held together by criss-crossing gold thread. Beneath the dress, Radha wears a pair of plain, skin-tight black shorts that serve only to preserve the woman's modesty.

Radha wears several pieces of jewelery to accentuate her clothes, the most prominent being a thin silver necklace and the metal tablet that hangs from it. This tablet, about as long as her forefinger, is usually settled between her shoulder blades. Three bracelets, two around her wrists and one around her left forearm, are made of carved stone while the numerous rings on her fingers are made from either gold or bronze.

As you're walking through the door, you see many sights that influence your mood. The different feelings that suddenly wash over you are many, leaving you with a strange mix of emotions.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Alignment: Neutral

Behavior
Radha is a surprisingly light-hearted individual, especially for a person who spends her time combating both Heartless and Nobodies. Commonly seen with a cheerful smile and a joke on the tip of her tongue, Radha appears to have a hard time taking anything seriously, even battle. The woman sees her occupation as just another part of life and tries keeps herself removed from it as much as possible. While by no means a coward, the woman doesn't see any reason for any "excessive" fighting and does her best not to seek out a fight unless absolutely nessecary. Even when actually fighting, Radha often jokes with her current allies and rarely ever loses her typical cheer. Despite the postivie outlook the woman trys to keep, she constantly struggles with the energies contained in her body.

Behind her cheerfulness, Radha is constantly battling constant mood swings brought on by the build up of magic within her body. These mood swings get worse the longer the woman goes without expelling atleast a portion of her magic and they transform the normally laid-back woman into a bitter, sarcastic individual barely in control of her own powers. While grateful for the power the gifts give her, the woman is in a constant search for a way to get rid of her abilities all together and end the constant balancing act they have forced on her life.

~Weapons~

Suddenly, a Heartless appears in front of you, brandishing its claws and threatening to attack. You reach for your weapon and equip it, ready to defend yourself.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Elemental Energy:
Radha's tattoos generate large amounts of magic energy, which can be channeled into one of three elements; Fire, Ice, and Lightning. This energy is released through the woman's palms and are her only form of weapon. However, because her tattoos never stop generating energy, Radha must constantly purge the energies from her body, left they literally consume her body from within. Otherwise, Radha simply uses her hands and feet as effective weapons.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~Abilities~

Just as you're about to fight the creature, you feel the power of your ancestors filling you. The strength of a thousand men courses through your veins as you prepare for battle.

[/i][/b]

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Overload:
Radha channels the energy generated by her tattoos into a single point in the center of her palm and unleashes that energy in a single, shotgun-like burst of elemental energy. The blast takes on the properties of whichever element Radha channels, meaning that it is either a blast of fire, ice, or lightning. These blasts have a maximum range of three feet and a spread of two feet in a cone-shaped area in front of the woman.

Strength: Weak
Uses: Twice per post, must be of the same element.

Channel:
Rather than released her energies, Radha channels an element and allows the energy to coat her limbs, allowing her to deliver elementally charged strikes to an opponent. The element she is channeling is indicated by the energy leaping off her charged limbs. Sparks jump wildly from her fists when she channels lightning, while a faint mist leaks from them while the woman channels Ice.

Strength: Weak
Uses: Twice per thread, no longer than two posts.

~History~

As you slay the last of the beasts, you put your weapon aside, and walk away, knowing your tale of bravery will be told for thousands of years to come.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Radha was born into a normal family living in Traverse Town and her early life was relatively tragedy-free, save for the occasional heartless sighting. Radha herself, however, was drawn to magic from a very young age. Her mother ran a small bookstore and the young girl wound spend hours reading about powerful mages and amazing feats of magic in any number of fantasy books. This fascination followed Radha for the rest of her life, but she received crushing news when she began seeking a person to teach her how to wield the mystic arts. Radha was told that she simply could not learn how to cast and form of magic simply because she was not strong enough.

Devastated, Radha fled into the winding streets of Traverse Town in tears. Before long, however, the young woman stumbled into a tiny shop at the edge of an unknown back alley. That was when she met the Shaman, an old man who used artificial means to cast magic. As he listened to the girl's dilemma, the Shaman offered her a door to her dreams. The man offered to give Radha the same mechanism he himself used, a series of tattoos that amplified a person's inherent energy tremendously. Before he could even explain the price, however, Radha agreed.

The process was painfull, even as far as tattoos went, and by the end of the two weeks the Shaman required to complete the mystical artwork, Radha had felt pain like she had never expected to feel. However that would only be the start of her acquaintance with the Shaman. For the next six months, Radha trained with the old man in an effort to learn how to harness the magic now being generated within her body. For Radha, life was perfect. She could finally use magic, had finally attained her dream. Her lessons with the Shaman progressed farther and farther until the first time her body rebelled against her.

Once again, Radha was assaulted by pain, however it was different than when she received her tattoos. A great fire burned inside her body, frying every nerve while at the same time freezing her in place. The Shaman let the pain course through his student's body as he explained the terrible price Radha had paid for her much-desired magic. Because of the tattoos, the young woman had to constantly release energy from her body to prevent it from building up to fatal levels. The phrase "too much of a good thing" was entirely true in Radha's case, as the magic within her threatened to devour her. She was spared by the Shaman who, upon completing his final lesson, took Radha's hands and allowed the overflowing elemental energy to pour into his body.

When the woman regained consciousness, she found her teacher lifeless on the floor. His body, weakened by age, had succumbed to the energy within his body. Radha buried him alone and, after a brief visit to her family, left in search of a method to remove her tattoos. It was during the first year of her travels that she was confronted by the Heartless and subsequently found that they provided a much needed way to channel her magic. From that day on, as she combed through every magical book or place she could think of, Radha met a series of dead ends and failed methods. Nothing she found could remove her tattoos, her curse. Not in Traverse Town, anyway.
