~Character Info~

Waking up in the morning, your thoughts are cluttered. It takes a moment for you to fully become aware of your surroundings, but once you do, everything about your life comes back to you.[/center][/b][/i]

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

Name:"Beware, this is Anna Charleston."

Age:"Don't let her fourteen year old charm deceive you."

Birthplace:"I witnessed her birth in Enchanted Dominion."

Birthday:"I remember it like it was yesterday, she was born on January 17th."

Gender:"She's definitely Female."

Race:"Certainly not a horse, definitely human, for sure!"

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

~Appearance~

As you are heading out the door of your house, a small glimmer of light catches your eye. You turn around and see a mirror, putting you face to face with your reflection.

[/b][/i]

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

Physical appearance:"So you want more details, what are you people stalkers? Fine, fine. She's about five foot three in terms of height, though not totally short... I guess she could do better for her age. She's certainly healthy, boasting an athletic figure and good stamina. Maybe that Henry fellow could take some cues from her. For in terms of facial structure, she has soft rounded cheek bones. They're quite adorable especially with a hint of a blush. Her cranium is elegantly sculpted, boasting roundess in the right places. Simply put it's a delicate balance which wows all the boys. Atop her noble crown is her soft blonde hair. It falls to her soulders and is neatly combed. A few of the locks are braided into a french braid, very elegant. Oh but her eyes! They're blue like the clear blue sky. Well they're really light, you could swear they're almost silver! To match such wonderful hues are her elegant nose. It is straight and strong in feature, yet small and subtle to match a girl her age."

Clothing/Accessories:"I'd be lying if I said the mistress was into the latest fashion. Had it not been for her strong female attributes you could mistake her for a handsome male. Starting with that simple blue top. Tis a short sleeve tunie with a hood to match. The sleeves themselves are white, adding for an interesting mix. Those grey pantaloons are even loose fitting! If I dare ask why, she'd probably tell me it was to allow better movement. In terms of footwear she wears simple but efficient black boots. Crafted by a good tailor for mobility, they do the job well and add a sense of flate to her overall appearance."

"Ah but how could I forget the most majestic thing about Anna? You see she dawns a set of armour that stands five foot, eleven inches. In terms of figure the shoulders are not broad. This reflects the athletic yet still small form of it's hostess. The material is glorious white, why you'd swear it was diamond. Though I can't guess how, it's usually brought along with her wherever she goes. It's certainly majestic looking, fit for a true legend. The edges might be smooth but they are certainly solid. They match the contours very well, allowing for mobility...she loves mobility.

It does have another feature to it. Her armour is accompanied by matching armour fit for a horse. The form of the trusty steed certainly looks powerful. Why I'd say a Black stallion was beneath it, yet I cannot tell if there is truly a horse beneath that armour. It too shines white, it amazes me to see her on it each and every time. In terms of size for that horse, I'd say it was about 17 hands (68 in/170 cm). Certainly a tall and sturdy creature, yes?"

"Of course."

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

~Personality~

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.

[/i]

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

Alignment:"I wouldn't call Anna a saint by any means, she's certainly evil."

Behavior:"Civil, Just, serious. These are the three words that describe Anna best, believe me. She handles situations as if she was reinacting a text book answer. The law is the only thing she believes in and to that end, strives to act as the hand of justice. She's definitely not a vigilante by any means. Oh is she ever /strong/ too! It's easy to see that she is a very assertive young woman. Perhaps she can even be overbearing depending on your views. Is she persuasive? Is the world round, of course. Wether it's crowds of people or just a few individuals, she'd sell you your own shirt for 1000 munny if she could!"

"Though I do have a confession to make. People make her stronger, thus she hates to be alone. When she's alone she cannot shake the feeling of a nagging voice. No it's not my own voice, I swear. Perhaps it is a small sign of a conscious. No Jimminy Cricket is not following her around. Please if you have any kindness within your heart, befriend the poor thing. I dare not say her strength is a facade. If others rely on her to be strong, who is there to really depend on. To make her feel safe? She really doesn't desire help from others. She simply needs their company. So if it means breaking out of her evil shell; that selfish world of hers. Then she better start turning to the light, for it alone can give her the strength of the heart."

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

~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.

[/i][/b]

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

"If one wishes to fight, they need a weapon. M'lady is certainly skilled with many weapons but her best attribute is fighting hand to hand. Well that is, if she was able to fight hand to hand in that armour of hers. Instead she wields a powerful spear. As with everything concerning Anna's armour, it's probably a spear of light. It's size slightly longer than the average. The length of the blade atop the spear is also lengthened. Of particular notice is that the head of the spear is more like a sword's edge. What could such a powerful weapon be called?"

"I'd say 'Eloquent'."

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

~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.

[Dark Light]:
"Within you I can see the source of an unusual power. Born of a feud between the darkness and the light, it emits from your form like no other. I'm sure it took your strong resolve to pull upon this darkness to break you from your cage. Now that you radiate such a magnificent aura, I can tell you're feeling powered up. Though to many it might just be an act or taunt. Not to fear, for I believe in your inner strength.

Strength: When it comes to shinning this dark light of yours, you may think you're a bright bulb but your aura is pretty weak. Thus your speed is only so useful.
Uses:"So what does this display of inner resolve do for you? Well I guess you are moderately enhanced in the speed category. Mobility has always been your thing as I recall. So perhaps when you're on the battlefield, displaying your majestic glow... you might tend to fade out infront of your enemies eyes. I call it a sudden burst of speed, which produces several after images. It's not something you can consecutively do within each post either. At best, I think I saw you do it twice each post. The overall duration of your light was five posts I'm afraid. For no sooner did that White Knight trap you inside it's confines. Well, don't worry too much about it Anna. An increase in speed is an increase in striking power after all. You know when I see you fighting I recall a familiar tune: 'That girl is so Dangerous, that girl is so dangerous...that girl is a--' well you get the idea. Once the White armour has enclosed itself upon you again you'll need to wear it for the remainder of the day."

[Unequivocal Shell]:
"Well, let's look on the bright side of things m'lady. Your armour fuels your life source by pumping light into your otherwise dark consumed being. Yes, Light certainly powers your armour but I dare not say what it's true nature is. Those who wear your armour continue to subject themselves to the power of light. Thus when you're within this armour, your enemies the heartless won't come after you. Way to hide in open sight. It's too bad that you're always in this armour, it doesn't fade away for there's no timelimit to you being within. On the other hand, you cannot travel the Corridors of Darkness when you're inside this shell. In fact I highly advise you stay away from it for the darkness can penetrate your armour. You certainly don't need anymore darkness m'lady! It will wear down your physical form, thus your life force respectively."
Strength:"If you wanted to truly protect your life, then you'd better get a stronger light. Right now it fills your heart with a weak power. Is it even fighting off the darkness in your heart?"
Uses:"I guess the best use of your armour is to keep you alive and well in this world m'lady. No matter how you slice it, you need to be in that armour to live. Don't sweat the small stuff though, you can still fight when you're in the armour. Why, you can even call forth your trusty steed. Yes that armoured horse that appeared before you is useful. Traveling for one thing is certainly better when that armour is out. Charging atop your steed helps to use that spear too. Though you're far from /invincible/ when you're wearing that battery of yours. Darkness is everywhere, don't let your armour be attacked by it too much.

~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.

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

"She was not meant for a life of battle. Born to a Minister in King Hubert's court, it was better for her to simply be an elegant lady. She'd have made any man proud to be married to her. Seek only the life of the court, the simplicity of a life with civilians. Be weary of war, leave that to the knights. Anna isn't the type of girl whom you attempt to restrict by any means. She's for lack of a better comparisson; a lion. Yes I stated lion and no I do not mean a lioness. A lioness is not King, they do not rule the pack. When her mother said 'study to show thyself approved', she'd train to show thy strength! Such a rebellious child didn't have a bright future ahead by any means, least of all one with any sort of power."

"During one of the many raids upon our kingdom, Anna had snuck out of the protective care that her family provided. How could she sit within her quarters knowing that the enemy was out there. Following the royal guard, in high heels and all, she'd proceed out into the country side. Much of the Kingdom's battles were done around those parts. It was for the most part, clear of any civilians that came it's way. The plan was quite simple and lacked any grace. Anna would steal a set of armour at nightfall and guise herself in it. From there, she could proceed to extract the hand of justice. Everything was going according to plan that night as well. The Knights had finished supper and their campsight lacked the necessary security to prevent a damsel to sneak in. At least, so Anna figured...I'm sure it was better than this. The problem with her plan came when she lost sight of the knight's campsite. She swore they had taken up shelter within a cave near the lake. It even had a bit of light emitting from the entrance."

"The light enticed her to enter, albeit with caution. With her stealth tactics employed she attempted to sneak past any guards at the entrance. Each cautious step made her wonder why there weren't any guards to begin with. Obviously it was a trap m'lady, why couldn't you think about that? Well I guess she was distracted by the light. A light which no sooner vanished! Thus she was all alone, isolated within the confines of a dark, scary, cave. M'lady hates to be alone, you know. Yet where was she going to run in a pitch black cave? For all she knew, she could be running deeper and deeper within. Thus she did what any scared girl would do. Curl up into the fetal position and scream out for help. It really didn't look good on her image but there was no time to worry about that. Tears streamed down her cheeks as she stammered; no pleaded for help!"

"One couldn't imagine Anna Charleston as a damsel in distress but there she was. It didn't help her ego that she was dressed within an formal blue gown. She was supposed to be in the presence of older guests, she needed to look like a young lady. Those who said you couldn't cry for what you wanted never met Anna. She cried for help, cried for strength, protection... Grace alone made it so she got what she desired. Just as darkness tainted the world once before, so too did light shine upon it. A majestic armour piece materialized into the dark cave. It was well suited up and stood upon a mighty steed. Within it's grasp was a great spear, a spear of light. Her eyes were drawn to this noble hero. Thus the armour piece began to open itself up, it made itself so inviting!"

"Surely you can't honestly think that crying can get you anything? As soon as the girl stepped into the armour it shut tight. She was caught like a rat in a trap. Inside it's confides it channeled on the small desire to be useful. A desire which hinted at potential courage. It was certainly needed, for no sooner did the White Armour race off into the country side. For many years she was forced to play a role she regretted. Ever the slave to the law of the land, like a hero beckoned to the light. She'd make several appearances, building a small name out in the country. "

"Darkness didn't appreciate that chivalrous hero was going around doing good deeds. Maleficent and her Heartless took over. Their surging wave of evil was too strong for the knight. So in order to protect itself and it's host, the suite vanished! I can't recall the story from here. Supposedly Anna was taken to a place of solitude. It was a castle you know... yes, an enchanted castle. The armour had locked itself as fear and rejection welled up from within. A strong sense of fear, a strong sense of rejection. If the girl wanted to be so far away, to be isolated... then sure!"

"Thus the girl remained trapped within a closet. The armour itself being shielded by the darkness. Who was going to come down to the armoury anyway? The castle was largely uninhabited! Ocassionally some howls from some sort of a beast was heard but that concerned Anna not. Well okay it might have made her more frightened. Darkness was the only thing that gave her strength in these times. It played upon her personality, a desire to be self-serving, self-sufficient. Each night she'd scream out, howling as if she was a lion trapped within it's own den. This continued for several days as a strong desire burned within. You did /not/ corner a Lion, they claw, bite, and fight back until there is nothing left of the enemy. Thus one night she broke free from it's confines through sheer will power and confidence. She REJECTED the light through the sheer build up of darkness that she could muster. Follow your instincts girl, don't let the light drag you down! That's what I'd have said but surival was probably more important. "

"Thus she freed herself and began to search around the lower levels of the castle. The dark light that was emitting from her form made her feel strong. Unfortunately this newfound power was stealing her life away. You must understand that Anna does not power the White Knight. The White Knight powers her. Without it, she has no battery to sustain her newfound strength. That's the worse curse anyone can bestow upon you. For your very existence relies on a set of armour which forever binds you. How does that make you feel Anna darling? I'm sure you dislike this immense curse. Oh by the way, that room that you're in...how did you get there and why are you there? Tell me you're not trapped inside it!"
