Appearance:

www.geocities.com/ninetysixs/namine.jpg]Naminé

Physical Features: Naminé can be described as a very fragile looking person who is practically skin and bones. She seems to have a few curves every so often, but they’re not distinct enough that any one person would notice them right off that bat unlike some other Females. Her skin is for the most part fair, perhaps a little on the pale side, but not so much.

Facial Features: Naminé’s eyes could be best described as a porcelain blue that seems to sparkle. Her skin is a very soft fair color with a slight pale to it, but perhaps not a lot that it would be noticeable. She does have a hint of a color in her cheeks, just the dullest of pinks barely noticeable. Her blond hair seems to balance her skin tone and reaches to just a little past her shoulders on one side. On the other side however, it’s fairly short and the other seems marginally shorter then the other side. She has a few bangs that fall just above her eyes as to not get in her way of drawing or being able to look at someone.

Clothing: Just like Naminé’s room, Naminé usually goes for simplicity as far as clothes are concerned. The only outfit she is really seen in is a very plain white dress which stops quite a few inches before it reaches her knees. With this outfit, Naminé wears a pair of sky blue sandals.

Miscellaneous Items/Articles: As Naminé is a rather simple person, she doesn’t have too much in the way of jewelry that she wears. The one thing that she can always been seen with on any occasion happens to be her sketchbook, that’s something she always seems to have with her, regardless of the situation at hand.

Personality:

Resolve: To a lot of people, it would seem as though Naminé is always working to make everyone happy with her rather then focusing on herself first. She likes to put people ahead of herself. She always seems to focus on everyone else and does her best to please them, namely Sora, Kairi, and Riku. Though her reasons for trying to please them the most seems to be almost difficult to find. There could be several reasons for willingness to do such a thing, such as that she might feel guilty about having to erase Sora’s memories of them and instead tried to take their place with new memories of herself and Sora. Or perhaps it’s simply that she wants to help others to the best of her abilities and that there are no strings attached to that.

Just like other Nobodies, even those who may not be considered Unique such as Roxas and herself, Naminé wants to be whole. She wants to be able to feel what most humans already feel. Granted, because she is a Unique Nobody she is capable of feeling certain emotions, all the same she wants to be able to feel more then what she can now. She wants to be whole and not have to be considered a Unique Nobody.

Pursuit: Naminé cannot fully expect to be happy and content unless she can fix the problems that she has already caused to Sora, Kairi, and Riku. Granted, they’ve seemed like they’ve already forgiven her for her actions, she wants to make completely sure that there is still not a lingering thread of anger hanging around somewhere. To make herself happy once again, she has to do her best to befriend those she’s already hurt, and make sure they are happy as well, and if they’re not she can at least try to help them. She doesn’t want a single person mad at her based on her actions, meaning she needs to make sure beyond a reasonable doubt that Sora and the others are happy with her before she can fully be at peace with herself.

Fears: Naminé has a great number of feels, some that she had acquired from being within the Organization’s hands for so long, and just some that she has gained herself after everything is said and done with. The one thing that Naminé feared a great deal while in the hands of the Organization had been being forced to live in Castle Oblivion for all eternity and not be able to leave for any reason whatsoever. Granted, this is something that’s changed as she was finally free of that prison, but it’s still something she fears and will continue to fear until she can say beyond a reasonable doubt that the Organization has disbanded.

One major thing that Naminé does fear is the Organization. She realizes that she is free from them, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that they won’t come looking for her and try to recapture her once again for a new plot they might have. It’s just always going to be a lingering fear that won’t seem to dissipate, yet it’s also one that will keep her alert. At least if she’s afraid of them, she’ll be more cautions of people then she would have been had it not have been for the Organization at all. She’ll do her best to be on the look out, and careful as though afraid that the same fate my await her either by a new group of people, or still by Organization XIII.

Two major things that Naminé also fears seem to coincide with one another, simply for the fact that they belong to the same people, just different fears. The first one being that she’s afraid to lose people close to herself, this also includes she’s afraid of angering them (I.E. Sora, Kairi, and Riku). As stated earlier Naminé thrives to make sure that her friends are happy and have forgiven her for anything that she has done to them. To go along with that though, she is now afraid a lot more then before that she might be forced to manipulate their memories like that again. She doesn’t want to have to do that because she’s seen first hand how it can affect both them and herself, and there’s been more negatives to that then there has been of positives.

Hopes: Naminé can only hope things are set right, that there would be nothing more to worry about such as Organization XIII or anyone else forcing things upon herself or her friends that she wouldn’t want to do. She can only hope and pray that everything will turn out alright in the end and that there might be reasons for some of the things she or others had to do. Overall though, she hopes everything will be alright in the end.

Hobbies: It should be quite obvious as to what Naminé likes to do in her free time, simply for the fact it’s a natural talent of sorts that she seemed to have been given in the past. Naminé has a habit of drawing a great deal when she has nothing else to do. She likes to just sit down and open up her sketchbook and draw the people or things that she has already scene whether in dreams or with her eyes. She likes being able to draw picture upon picture and be able to sign her name at the bottom of it before putting it up on one of the white walls in her room within Twilight Town. Another hobby that Naminé has taken up has been to be around her friends a lot more. She likes being able to see her friends and hang out with them for a little bit every so often when time will allow her to do so.

Public Personality: From past encounters, Naminé has realized that it’s so much easier to just listen rather then talk, she’s learned this from being within Castle Oblivion for so long, and so now it’s become more of a habit that she just listen rather than offer any topic as far as a discussion of sorts. It’s just became a habit of hers, listening rather than talking. And as everyone knows, habits are very hard to break. Out of habit Naminé has become a better listener when around others, though a great number of people often expect this to be do to her being shy, which could be part of it, but not all of it. Not everything she does is out of shyness, rather than a habit she got into in Castle Oblivion. It was the only thing she knew until she escaped and retreated to Twilight Town, so it’s a lot harder to break it.

Private Personality: If she’s around someone she is close with like Sora or Roxas, she can hold a conversation if needed. Mainly though, Naminé would be the best place to go if someone were looking for answers to questions, because she’s very good at offering up some advice and providing answers to questions that others might have. As long as she can answer them, she does her best to help someone who needs the help. It would seem as though it was the right thing for her to do by helping others around her, or at least close to her.

As far as a normal conversation with a person she is very close to, it wouldn’t be too hard to get her into a small conversation. At least around someone she is close to, she doesn’t have to feel so reserved and as though she shouldn’t be saying anything, rather Naminé just enjoy small conversations with a few of her close friends, and so it’s always good to be able to sit down with Sora or Roxas, or someone of that nature and just talk to them with no strings attached.

Class: Defender

Weapons: [Every character has some sort of weapons, even the Princesses of Heart…in some way. Well, this is where you will describe your weapons. Please note that you can’t have an infinite amount of weapons. Each character is limited to one set of weapons. This means you could have dual swords, a dagger with a long-sword, chain with daggers on the end, etc., etc. However, you can only have ONE set. A set can be defined as as many weapons you can control/hold at once.Use the following format below to help guide you and keep things organized.]

Weapon Name: Sketchbook

Weapon Description: Naminé has no true weapon that she could use that would aid her ina ny abttle, mainly for the fact that she doesn’t feel as though she needs a weapon of sorts to aid her, rather she has the ability to use memories against certain people. Her main weapon would simply have to be her sketchbook, which is about the only useful tool that she completely owns, if only for the simple fact that it’s the only thing she needs to survive. Her sketchbook can be used for various things, but one thing Naminé can do with it is alter memories of those who are close to Sora, including Sora himself. Granted, it might not work against everyone she meets, it’s all she needs for any reason.

Unique Notes: There‘s nothing necessarily special about it unless you count the fact that it is in fact a sketchbook and not an actual weapon as something special, otherwise it‘s not necessarily special. It was however given to her from the Organization when she first fell into their clutches.

Abilities:

Base Ability: Memory

Sub Abilities:

Inside a Memory: Being known as a Memory Witch, and being that she is a very unique Nobody, there are certain things that Naminé is able to do that hones in on her ability to draw pictures. One major ability that Naminé has gained is the ability to alter memories of those close to Sora, including Sora himself. She can manipulate his or any of his friend’s memories anyway, shape, or form that she may wish to with certain restrictions. Changing their memories though is a job in and of itself, therefore requires precise and careful thoughts. Being able to manipulate memories at her own will can cause a lot of damage to not only herself but the person that the memories are concerned with, therefore she has to be very careful with how she uses the ability, at least to avoid causing damage that might not be easily replacable.

Forget Me Not: With the ability to chain and rechain memories also comes a unique ability that only Naminé seems able to possess. She has the ability to chain together completely new memories, starting from a persons birth up until the present point in their life. She can unchain their true memories and make them forget all about them and certain people within their past and create new memories with new people - with Sora she took out Kairi and had herself created in her place - The only thing about this ability is the fact that it’s not necessarily new memories exactly, it’s more of she’s altering the memories and instead of one person being in that same memory, she just adds in a new person and takes out that person. But depending on how many memories she needs to alter and how many details needs to be put into place, this is something that may take a while to do, as she has to draw out each picture in turn before she can change those memories. It’s a difficult task that requires a lot of patience, but it can be done. This can only be used by gaining consent from the member before hand.

Rechaining Memories: Someone Naminé already had to do once with Sora and his friends, this is something that she can do if she wishes to redo everything that she might have done to a certain person. This meaning that if Naminé alters a persons memories in anyway, she can go back through and rechain the memories together, thus taking out any and all memories that she had originally created for that person and putting back the older memories. This of course is done through drawing pictures of sorts like she does with Inside a Memory. Unlike that one though, the more memories she has to rechain, the longer it will take her to do so. For Sora, when she altered all of his memories, it took herself a year to rechain all of them back together, and for that time he and his friends Donald and Goofy were stuck in a pd within Twilight Town supposedly sleeping. So, it may take a while to rechain certain memories.

-----------------------
History: At one point, Naminé didn't exist. Even now, Naminé was never supposed to exist. She's a shadow of a person who is, and that person is Kairi. She's her Nobody. She was born from Sora’s body, yet came from Kairi’s heart. As many had called her before, Naminé was and always will be known as a unique Nobody, simply for that fact alone.

Coming into existence, Naminé knew very little about herself and those around her. She had no memories in which to call upon, therefore coming into existence, it was liking trying to teach an infant from day one. She knew not of how she came into existence, and she knew not of what her purpose was to be. Those would be things she would need to teach herself along the way, because for the life of her at the moment, Naminé simply couldn’t remember who or what she was. Everything was just so brand new to her. There were so many curious things, so many questions she needed answered. It was just too much for any regular person to handle, let alone Memories Artist. She could question her existence as much as she had wanted to, yet it wasn’t at all clear. What was her purpose? What was she? And who was she?

It hadn’t been but a short while after her existence, barely a day seemed to have gone by, barely enough time for Naminé to collect her thoughts and questions into one area of her mind. She could isolate those questions and concerns, but for how long, she didn’t know. Perhaps a short while, perhaps a long time. For now, it gave her a clear head, just enough that she could think about where she was, or how she’d gotten there to begin with. Though, it wouldn’t be until later that Naminé would learn the truth. For now, all she knew was right was right in front of her, which had been a few people at most, faces shrouded. Everything she knew, all of the answers she had been reserving until she could figure things out would be answered by this group, yet Naminé didn’t know who or what they were. Were they just like her? Or were they beings like another? Only time would tell whether her questions would all receive answers or not.

Shortly thereafter Naminé was whisked away by this group, a group who she could distinctly recall introducing themselves as Organization XIII. Though, the name seemed add to more questions to the already every growing long list of questions she wanted answers to. She was told if she’d come with them, they would answer all of her questions and more. And with very little knowledge of this Organization XIII, or about the world that would soon greet her, Naminé had no other choice. There was no telling what would happen if she were to stay behind. Would she be left to enter back into nonexistence? Was that even possible? She could only but tell herself that only time would tell. Patience seemed to be the key thing in just about everything she tried to do.

As she was saved by this Organization, they led her to a new world, one in which of course Naminé had never seen. When she questioned them about this world, they told her this was Castle Oblivion, hence forth, her new home.

Even from within this Castle, there was only one thing that Naminé could truly call her own among the series of floors. Her room. It seemed abundantly clear that she was to own nothing else but the possessions in her pearl white room, though this seemed fine with Naminé if for no other reason then the fact that she was far too confused about everything going on around her that she didn’t want to bother with owning anything else. Though, it seemed strange to her at first that they would invite her to live here, yet shut her in her room where it was made crystal clear that she would stay, doing as they told her to do. She would be their obedient servant, the only one at hand it seemed.

Still, as the days turned to weeks, Naminé found very little interest with the pearl white room around her anymore. It seemed as though the longer she stared at the white of the walls, or the marble white of the floor, the more that she got disgusted by the thought that there was no color. She wanted to add something to the room, a personal touch of sorts. Perhaps make it more her own. At least by adding what she wanted to, she wouldn’t be so tired of the white walls, or the white furniture. At she could perfect it the way she wanted to and still love the simplicity the room had to offer. Though, it seemed, as she brought these thoughts out to the Organization, they paid her no heed, only telling her that could be fixed in a bit. They said nothing more or less to Naminé about it, and instead left her once again locked away.

There is very little that one could do in a room where there lacked any sort of entertainment at all. So little to do, and yet she needed to have something to do. Her questions seemed to carry upward and onward, adding more questions to the still ever growing list that already presented itself to Naminé. Though, it seemed quite amusing to her really that, the more she thought about the questions, the more she could answer some of them herself and wouldn’t need to wait around for Organization XIII to answer them - as there had been no telling when they would get around to answering those questions - in face, she found solitude in being able to maul over the questions for hours on end and finally put pieces together that would add up. Granted, there were a few questions she could answer herself such as what was she? But those were questions that she could wait on answering for sure. For now, she could at least narrow the list down and solve some things for herself. That much wouldn’t be difficult.

It wasn’t so long after Naminé started answering questions for herself before the Organization came to her, seeking help at last. They would answer al of her questions, they had told her the minute they came to her, however she needed to at least hear them out on a bargain of sorts. It seemed fair enough to Naminé, and thinking it would finally be nice to know what was going on, she could only but oblige to this.

They only explained the bare minimum, just enough to get her started on the task at hand, yet it was enough that it would keep her questions at bay for a little while longer. Perhaps by some twist of fate, or just simply for the fact that they didn’t want unnecessary questions at the moment, they did their best to explain what they felt was most important for Naminé to get started.

His name was Sora and he was supposed to be the good one, saving the world. He was a Keyblade Master. Granted, none of this made sense to Naminé at the time, she didn’t want to question them or their intents. But what were there intents? What did they want her to do with him? The way she could see it, there was very little reason for Naminé to help them, if only for the fact that she had no way of helping. She knew of no powers that she could possess that would lead them to believe that she could aid them. All the same, organization XIII seemed to think she was far more capable then what she originally led herself to believe. They said she could do just about anything and everything so long as she tried as hard as she could. She could do what they wanted, and much more and they would show her how. Now this, Naminé got interested in. Not only would she know what she could do, but she would learn how she could do it!

It wasn’t but perhaps a few days after they explained all of this to her before she was brought a sketchbook and some colored pencils. They did their best to keep her art supplies in high supply, as they knew she would soon be using them a great deal more when she found out the task that would be set before her. They expected her to complete the task before Sora reached the top of the castle. Though, knowing that she would be unable to do the work necessary without ultimatum’s, they gave her a big ultimatum of completing the task set before her and being able to leave the castle safely, or being locked away within the castle for all eternity, not being able to use her powers to help those around her. It wasn’t much of a decision in Naminé’s mind. Giving the choice of leaving, or staying with the Organization, the choice was very clear, even to herself.

And so, Naminé set to work, practicing for the task that lay ahead of her. Though completing the task would require an ingenious method, an easy way that she could get in and manipulate Sora’s memories without too much of a challenge. There seemed to be only one option, and one alone that would help her accomplish this. She needed to remove those closest to Sora, but to do that meant finding the name. As long as she could put a picture and name with the person, she would be able to take her out of the picture and put Naminé there in her place. At least then, Sora would remember only Naminé. Though, upon asking the Organization about this, they thought it over for a bit before coming to a decision. It seemed as though that would be the easiest way to manipulate Sora completely. Get rid of the one he loved completely, make it seem as though she didn’t exist. Simple enough to accomplish.

Without a second though, Naminé was allowed to continue, with the sights of getting rid of Kairi in mind. She would remove the one closest to Sora, who happened to be Kairi, and in her place put herself in, as though the only thing Sora knew and loved had been that of Naminé. Granted, she didn’t want to have to do something as drastic as this, not doing it would result in the rest of her life revolving around Castle Oblivion and the dreaded Organization members. This being something she wanted to avoid, Naminé would comply, for a time.

It isn’t until the task is almost complete, and the process of entering Naminé in Kairi’s place is so close to be completed before Axel allows Naminé to leave his sight…

The guilt is simply too much for Naminé anymore. Everything she had done, ahd been under the hands of Organization XIII, otherwise she knew for a fact she would never have allowed such a thing to happen. She didn’t want to her anyone in this process, yet it seemed to be the one thing that she did. She hurt not only herself, but Sora and Kairi. By erasing everything that Sora ever had with another person, she had practically lied to him, about everything. From the moment that Sora thought he first met her up until this moment, had been a complete lie. And after explaining this to Sora, and also explaining that she could help him by rechaining all of his old memories, Sora seems to forgive her. Granted, he’s still a bit confused by everything that happened, he seems to understand enough about the situation that he can forgive her.

Naminé leaves Sora, Donald, and Riku in pods, which she promises will help them gain their memories again. She leaves them all alone to set to the difficult task of rechaining their memories, realizing the next time she meets Sora, he would not remember her. Ever.

As she begins the process of rechaining Sora’s memories, Naminé runs into Riku and seemingly saves him from Zexion (whom she could recall being a part of Organization XIII). In order to save Riku however, Naminé was forced to take Kairi’s appearance as a way to hopefully bring Riku to his senses. She can recall telling him not to refuse the darkness. When face to face with him however, Naminé seems obligated to ask him if he wants a chance to lock away the darkness. She promised she could help him, yet he refused her offer and instead opts to fight the darkness.

After all of this, Naminé seemed to think she would need some help, so she got into contact with DiZ in hopes that he would help her protect Sora, Donald, and Goofy.

It wasn’t until DiZ helped Naminé before she could fully understand who she was, because of DiZ. He explained to her the basics that she needed to know. She was a Unique Nobody, created from Sora’s body and Kairi’s heart. As Kairi had no darkness in her heart to begin with, she took refuge in Sora instead of becoming a Heartless back at Destiny Islands. When Sora impaled himself with the Dark Keyblade and turned into a heartless, he not only could create Roxas, but as Kairi was still in Sora, he helped create Naminé.

As both herself and Roxas resided in Twilight Town for a time, Naminé seemed to go against DiZ’s orders and confided all of this into Roxas, thinking it would only be fair if he knew the truth as well. And after the process of restoring Sora’s memories had been complete, Naminé got to help free Pluto and Kairi from their imprisonment within Castle Oblivion .

After everything seemed to return to normal, there was only one thing missing. Naminé returned to residing within Kairi, for a time.

It wasn’t but a short time later that her existence as a Unique Nobody was made once again…

Anything else you want to say about yourself or your character?

As there is very little about Naminé’s rebirth that we know, I will add that at a later date.

[~/\The Dragon Writer/\~]

Nothing's wrong with the profile, but I need you to agree with something for future reference. Before you 'alter the memories of someone connected to Sora', you're going to have to get their consent, alright? That probably goes without saying, but just so we're all clear about it.

[Shane {Naminé}]

Of course And I've added that at the end of the ability, so I hope that fixes it

[~/\The Dragon Writer/\~]

Alright, now that that's settled, I can go ahead and accept this.

...Or can I?

*ponders*

~Accepted~

Locked and moved.

Oh, and be careful. I hear Axel has a thing for blondes. XD
