Skill: Lakuria grew up as a thief, so over the years she’s developed skills to do such things as climb buildings with ease. She’s very fast and able to perform nearly acrobatic stunts.
Recently She’s picked up a new weapon, so she’s gotten rather good at using those.

Hidden Blades: Probably the most suitable weapon for her, these small, but sharp blades jet out from underneath her hands when she chooses. When they are not in use they hide in the bottom of the arm bands she wears.
Family Katana:
This was her Fiancé (or Husband as she would claim)’s sword. It was important to the Ogawa family, so she now carries it in honor of him. She doesn’t ever take it out of its sheath.

Lakuria and Peaches
Appearance:Lakuria is a young woman that stands about 5’4” (without heels on). She is rather thin, weighing about 120lbs.
The most unusual thing about her is her bright lime green eyes, and her hair. Her natual hair color is a light brown, but the under layer is dyed a baby pink. Her hair falls a bit past her collar bones, and is rather straight.
Lakuri enjoys dressing rather revealingly, just because it’s the only thing she really knows, its just how she had always dressed.
However, after being out on her own again, her outfit has gotten more practical.
Lakuri wears a shirt that has a very low neck, but is tied like a corset to keep her chest in place, it is a light gray, and has rather bright pink off the shoulder sleeves, and a pink hood that comes to a point, when on, to cover her face at times.
Lakuri wears a tan short, its easy for her to move is since the skirt portion is loose, and the shorts underneath are basically spandex.
Lakuri wears thigh high boots that have the same ties on the top as her shirt does.
Lakuri wears a few things of major importance to her…. They are symbols of what she once had.
Around her neck, she wears a pink crystal heart, on a thin silver chain, given to her by Kyriu when they got together.
On her left hand, she wears her engagement ring. She and Kyriu never actually got married, but she wears her ring like they had, and will never take it off.
The last thing of importance is a tattoo that she now has on the back of her left shoulder. It is of a purple and black butterfly, and along the edge on one side is says in cursive. “ For my Prince, rest in peace. My heart is eternally yours/ I love you Kyriu.”
Personality: Theme Song: Ezio’s Family – Assasin’s Creed II Lakuri and Kyriu’s theme:
All I Ask Of You -Phantom of the Opera Lakuria has changed a lot.
She used to be the girl that everyone hated, and for things she didn’t understand.
Stupid, because she was never taught to live… just survive.
Seeking love, for what she never had.
Alone…
She had opened up greatly in her later teens, because she ad found the love of her life, and the one man that she wanted to marry, and it was all she ever wanted.
Lakuri acted like a princess.
She always wanted attention, from everyone, because she felt she needed it. She truly shined, and showed who she really was around him…
But a piece of her is now gone.
Lakuri has a few deeply rooted mental disorders from people who had disowned her in her life time, and they tend to get a hold of her unless she’s around someone that she’ll listen too, and trust. After the loss of her Fiancé, to things she couldn’t have controlled, she tried to kill herself, but was stopped by one of her only friends.
This part of her still exists, which makes her dependant on other people from time to time. But she’s gotten a lot stronger willed. No matter how depressed se may get, she now knows that it isn’t right for her to take her own life. That isn’t what Kyriu would have wanted from her. He wanted her safe.
Lakuri will do anything she can to help others. She had always had tat desire, but now it is what she lives on. She wants to make a difference in the world, an the lives of the people around so they do not have to suffer as she has.
Lakuri is
generally a rather out going young woman. She may not always now what shes talking about… but at least she tries. She likes to be very playful, and as Kyriu would have claimed, she “isn’t shy in the least”
She enjoys, and depends on having people around her and doesn’t deal with stress, or memories well if something has previously tipped her off.
Original World: Amaryllis City (Although she doesn’t know this)
Current World: Traverse Town
History/Background: ( Look at her sister Fiona’s profile if you wish to know what really happened to her.)
At about five years old, Lakuri was kidnapped from her house by a gang. Lakuri was from a quite wealthy family, so she was kidnapped, and help captive for ransom money.
Along with being pretty rich, Lakuri also had a pretty big family, although she was the little baby, being the youngest, and the second girl of three boys.
Lakuri was quite a little trouble maker when she was that little. She liked to play pranks on the maids and nannies that where to take care of her and her other siblings. These weren’t even that bad though since… the mind of a baby-five year old isn’t that great at pranks. Most of the time, the worse ones where still blamed on little Kuri by her older sister Fiona, who always played the “it was Lakuri” card; while Kuri could barely talk or couldn’t make enough sense to deny it.
As for Lakuri’s later life, it was hard. She spent a few years simply being a captive and not being treated very well, although better the in her future.
After a year or so had passed without any word from her family to save her, the gang was just about ready to dispose of her, until they noticed that she was a lot smaller then of the other members, meaning that she could get into tight places easier, and with some training, she had the potential to help them out a lot.
The question is… how to teach a six-seven year old. None of the gang members really understood how to do this “nicely” So Lakuri was hit, or just injured I some way, if she did something wrong. This helped result in several of her smaller scars in her much later life.
One thing that Lakuri had often done while she was on a “break”, which was usually when everyone else was asleep, was she liked to have some company that was actually nice to her. Lakuri would stay up and summon these little creatures that where very small and cute, just like the size o her hand or so ( She gained this ability from her mother). They wouldn’t beat her, all they did was keep her company until the others woke up again; and the process repeated.
However once the gang had found out about these little creatures, they where taken away from her. If any of them caught her messing with any of the little creatures, Lakuri was severely punished… So she eventually just forgot about this skill.
Things where then starting to go as “well” as they could. Lakuri listened to whatever the heck the gang wanted from her, without question for the next few years to avoid more pain.
At the age of eleven however, Lakuri started to get a little restless again. Her brain had developed enough by what she had seen when out on missions, and just by her age to know she wanted out of here…. She wanted to have her own life, and be free.
She also knew however that her boss would never allow her to get that immediately, she had to start small, very small.
One night while he, and a few of the other members where drunk out of their minds, Lakuri decided to bring this up to him, since she figured he wouldn’t be using his brain as much.
She asked if she could be allowed to go out by herself, with no mission or anything for an hour once a week or something, she thought that this was pretty reasonable.
The boss thought otherwise. He immediately started to yell very harshly at Lakuri, who for once in her life… fought back.
This outraged her boss even more and he pulled a knife of her. Lakuri immediately turned and ran as fast as she possibly could through the rest of the base, out the door and onto the streets where she would have a bit more of an advantage.
Lakuri knew that she was really no match for the boss, since he taught her every thing there was about fighting, however she knew she was faster. All she had to do was run long enough to find help, maybe from the police!
She knew were the station was since she had to avoid it a lot, but maybe they could help her.
The leader however wouldn’t let this happen. Instead of immediately taking off, He made sure that more of the members would be out to catch her before he ran after her.
Lakuri was cut off a few times by the other members, who she jumped over and such, since she couldn’t afford to stop and actually fight.
She had almost gotten to the police station, and would have been safe, but she was cut off finally by the boss, who knew exactly how to catch her.
He managed to grab her arm long enough to make Lakuri stumble and then flip and slide onto the ground.
The boss simply laughed at her and her again, attempt to escape, but more members got in the way. After the boss was finished yelling at Lakuri, and he allowed the other to strike at her a bit, he told them to back off, and took out the knife he had been carrying with him.
Lakuri took this as the perfect opportunity to try to escape again, and this saved her life. The boss plunged the knife at what would have been her heart, but Lakuri jerked away, causing the large cut that would make her scar later on. Lakuri screamed as loud as se possibly could because the pain of this was too great; then she immediately blacked out.
And only a few seconds later a cop car pulled up.
They where called by one of the businesses in the area, saying that there was trouble.
Lakuri woke up in the hospital about a week later. Her entire middle of her body was wrapped tightly in bandaged, and her cut had been stitched below all of this. Lakuri could barely even move for quite some time all she could do was look around at the white room, and all of its beeping.
The doctors where all very surprised she was awake, at least this soon since her body was still in shock. But in actuality, her body was healing a lot faster then most peoples would.
After Lakuri was feeling well enough to sit up, and talk like a normal person, a lot of people started to come in to question her about everything that happened, and who she was. But Lakuri didn’t want to answer those questions, since she was still in fear of getting in trouble. She wasn’t allowed to speak of anything to anyone; that was one of her main rules.
Lakuri would pretend like she was to hurt to talk, or just play dumb every time she was asked something she didn’t want to answer until she got well enough to walk. Then Lakuri left all together.
The first few weeks where very difficult for her; She really should have stayed in the hospital, but for her, it was too scary in there.
She also had to watch out for any gang members too. Lakuri changed her appearance around so that she would be less recognizable. She chopped off her long blond hair into being just above her shoulders, and dyed it a dark brown-black color.
Once it had been a few more months, without incident Lakuri finally knew… she was free!
For the next few years Lakuri did simple odd jobs people needed to get done to live while she regained all of her previous strength, and her side healed up as if it were nothing. It just left a huge scar on her.
She still had a bit of a bad streak in her, and would often steal things, just for the heck of it, but otherwise she was very obedient to anyone that told her to do things and was very happy when strangers where nice to her.
This got her into a few trouble spots, which where just people taking advantage of poor little Kuri, but she always got her way back out.
Lakuri lived her life this way for the longest time. Simply stealing to eat, and doing odd jobs if she wanted anything else. The dye had faded a while back, and her hair had darkened a bit from being her before blond, to a light brown color naturally. No more need to hide.
It wasn’t until Lakuri was seventeen that things started to happen.
There where all these little monsters that had started popping up, and she had no idea how to beat them….
-----
Since Lakuri arrived in Traverse Town, Her life as taken a giant change for the better. The people here don’t try to take advantage of the poor girl as a lot of the people in her past had, so she has a lot more friends now; and then one special person in particular. The first one she ever met in Traverse Town.
Lakuri now lives with her boyfriend Kyriu, at his house. He was the first person she had met when she arrived, since he saved her from a group of heartless, then the rest is pretty predictable, they fell in love.
However, just because Lakuri is now happier, doesn’t mean things are any easier for her. The physical difficulties have lessened, since she doesn’t have to worry anymore about how she is going to eat, or where she is going to sleep. However, the emotional difficulties have magnified by a hundred.
Kyriu isn’t quite so well… in the head mostly. But Lakuri has defiantly had to step up and use her white magic powers on him before to save his life. She’s learned how to use her healing powers very well in the year or so that she has been with him.
Very recently however, Kyriu has needed to not fight; as much as possible, and is facing more mental issues as ever. Lakuri tries her very best to stay strong for him, and now needs to find a way to protect them both, or risk losing everything she has.
------
In a more recent develpoment, now almost 19 years old, Lakuri and Kyriu are now engadged, and a lot of they're previous problems have been solved and faded away.
They should be married soon after they settle down and move out of Traverse Town, Hopefully to their goal of Destiny Islands.

( This will be edited later to be more words. But I cant handle typing this out right now, so heres a list: )
- Kyriu dies from someone trying to steal from the Café he worked at. He as trying to protect the other workers.
- Lakuri says her final good byes to him at a very small funeral, and tells him that she is taking his last name and is going to carry on as if they had been married. She won’t pursue anyone else.
-She nearly kills herself, but is stopped by Doogie, who stays with her for a while to make sure she regains some sort of sanity.
- She has to teach herself how to defend herself against the heartless, ( and discovers the hidden blades)
- She gets her Tattoo, and changes her appreanance.
- she carries on life for a little while, excludeing herself from people.
( and now is the present, where she is coming back out to help.)
Role Playing Sample:Lakuri was lying down on a grassy hill, simply just dozing off as she liked to do. She really enjoyed the sunlight; it was always so warm and just made her very sleepy!
And today was especially nice because she had been working on getting things for herself all night the night before, so taking a nap sounded like a fantastic idea.
However, she was interrupted from her nap by a few strange noises, such as a loud crashing noise.
Lakuri looked around, and really didn’t see anything, the flopped back over.
it’s nothing, don’t worry about it she though as she tried to fall back asleep.
The noises however proceeded to get louder. Lakuri lifted her head again but now saw a few little black creatures, with yellow eyes approaching her.
They looked kind of cute actually, but she had no idea what they where.
Lakuri sat up completely and called to one of them.
“Hey little guy… come here!” she said happily and reached out her hand friendlily towards it.
The creatures looked unsurely at her with their yellow eyes.
“its ok little guy, I won’t hurt you, I promise.” she said and smiled at it.
“what are you? A little dog?” She asked and moved a little closer to examine to creatures.
A few more then started to pop up, and now started to move closer. This scared Lakuri a bit, so she got to her feet.
“Hey where did you come from!?” she asked and started to back away as they started to come closer to her.
I don’t have any food for you guys, please back off!” she said to them. She was fine where there was one or two, but now that they where starting to surround her, she wasn’t liking this too much.
The creatures then decided that it was time to attack. A few bit at her legs and a few jumped at her.
”Ow! That hurts! Leave me alone!” She screamed and swatted away at them, then turned to start running.
Lakuri didn’t get very far though, because more even stranger creatures started to show up, and these ones weren’t so cute. She still tried to run past these too, but it didn’t work, they wouldn’t stop attacking!
Lakuri tried her best to kick or swat them away, but there just was too many of them!
“Someone help me! Please!!” She yelled. This could not end well.
Some of the weird creatures where bigger then she was! There was no way she could fight them all off!
But she still tried. Lakuri tried her very hardest to fight back now that she knew for sure that they weren’t nice, but she could only get rid of one or two by the time that four or five could appear in.
Eventually, their numbers where to great, and everything suddenly went black, and Lakuri feel to the ground.
When she finally would be awake again, she would find herself in Traverse Town.
