Sorry I couldn't post earlier has a younger brother to take care of. He's sleeping now.
Name : Ranna (Ran or Ren for short)
Touhou : Fujiwara no Mokou
Age : 17
Gender : Female
Personality : At first glance, she is a cold and uncaring young lady. She doesn?t view the human race with much regard. She prefers to keep to herself and believes she?s better off without relationships. Though often harsh, her heart has not completely turned to stone yet. Deep inside is a girl longing for someone to create happiness with. She has a hot temper which will flare up if you rub her the wrong way, so it is best to act with caution when speaking of certain ?touchy? topics.
Despite her hot and cold temperament, She will not attack verbally without reason. Even if that reason be ridiculous and childish.
History : Born to Sumiko and Len. Ranna grew up with a loving mother and caring father. In her early years, she was a cheerful and warm child who enjoyed everything the typical young girl or boy would like. At the age of 6, a harsh reality came crashing through the doors. Her parents were killed in a traffic accident on their way to pick up a birthday cake for the young Ranna?s birthday. Ranna waited and waited for her parents to return home that night, but they never did. As the night began to turn to day, the weary Ranna, with her eyelids drooping and her head bobbing, finally fell asleep.
In the evening, she woke to the orange glow of the setting sun. Setting up she rubbed her eyes and looked around. Nothing had changed from the night before. Puzzled, she rose to her feet and began to look for a meal. Though she exhaustively searched the kitchen, she found nothing she could make (which is understandable considering she?s only 6 years old), So disappointed an hungry, she settled for a light snack instead of a full meal. After her snack she sauntered up the stairs and into bed. This pattern continued for at least a week before she decided she?d ask the police what had happened to her parents. So she set forth for the Police station. When she arrived she asked about her parents, but her hope was crushed when they refused to tell her anything. Sad and at the brink of tears, the young girl slowly began to saunter home. A young woman passing by took pity on the poor girl and treated her to a meal. For days afterwards, every now and then, the woman would drop by the child?s home and teach her some essential knowledge to survive. This went on for many months before child agencies took the young girl away, placing her into a foster home. The girl wasn?t pleased with this, and made a few attempts to go back to her home. None of these attempts were successful, and only ending in her punishment from these foster parents. Due to the fact that she wasn?t their child, they didn?t treat her the same as the other children, therefore, she was often malnourished, mistreated, and left out. The girl put up with the torment, promising herself one day she would escape and never come back. At this time, she was 11 years of age, and a long distance away from freedom.
Ranna?s school and social life didn?t receive much exposure due to the crisis of her early childhood. Because of this, she didn?t quite get along with others. Ranna kept to herself instead of building relationships with others. As she moved forward into junior high, the other students began to take a different approach. They believed that Ranna thought she was above the rest of her classmates, and that her reason for her antisocial tendencies was because she didn?t want to lower herself to their level. At the time, she didn?t think such things. Being of a decent intelligence she analyzed whether or not talking to the other students had any value or not, the conclusion being that no profit could be gained from human interaction. Her classmates, believing she was too proud to associate with them, started to torment and harass her. At this time all she could do was cower in fear from her oppressors. At the age of 13, she strengthened her confidence and, with a few of her only possessions and some survival supplies, she set out to go to her old home. After about 2 days of travel she had made it to the house. Her eyes widened and a child-like smile spread across her face. It was just how she remembered. She explored it fully before releasing a sigh of relief as she laid on her once perfectly sized bed, which had by now become too small for her, she decided she?d stay for a while and unpacked her small selection of items. That night she slept in her own bed as a commemoration of her once ideal life.
One day, while searching for a flashlight, she stumbled across a large box in the attic. Puzzled as to what she had tripped over, she searched for the key, which she eventually found beneath her mother?s pillow. Excited, she rushed back up to the attic, pushed the key into the hole, and turned. A pleasant click rang through the dusty old attic. Ranna smiled and lifted the lid of the box. To her amazement, the chest contained money of all sorts. After digging through the box, she noticed there was a letter taped to the inside cover of the box. Wondering about the contents, the girl opened the letter and began to read it. As she read, her hands began to tremble and tears began to slide down her face. Somewhere in her heart she knew what had happened to her parents, but this letter, that she read silently to herself, convinced her.
That her parents were dead.
That night she didn?t eat, and went straight to bed. The next morning she got up and went through the motions of life, all the while feeling a deep and sorrowful emptiness in her heart. In the evening, she sating down with an old book and began to read. As she flipped through the pages, a small slip of paper fell out of the book. Ranna leaned over to pick the slip up. On one side was a picture of her mother and father, and in her mother?s arms, was a tiny infant no more than a couple of hours old. This photo made her realize; there was no point in being stuck on the past, moving forward is the only way to go. With this the girl decided to use a large chunk of the money to start up her life. She went out and bought food for herself, she applied to get a part-time job, and began to take many out of school courses, mainly ones that taught her how to survive or protect herself.
Ranna lived like this for at least two years. She was once again healthy and quite happy. She had learned many things and had become a master archer able to pierce a single green apple surrounded by a minimum of 250 red apples, from an angle of 30 degrees above the ground level of the apples. When she had made enough money from her job to pay for another course, she decided to take one that would make up for many years of lost education. However the night before her first session, she had been found. Police stormed into the home, quickly awakening a sleeping Ranna. The girl quickly rose to her feet and began to pack her things. Before attempting an escape she ran up into the attic and stuffed the remaining cash into her bag. With the stairs blocked, the girl attempted a stealthy escape through the attic window, which sadly failed. The police apprehended her and forcefully returned her to her foster home. Ranna, acting even colder than she previously had, avoided all contact with these people at all costs.
After returning home from school one day, she found out that her stash of money had been stole by the same people who beat her and treated her like a mere pet. This was the last deed of betrayal.
After that incident, Ranna had little to no respect for humans. She reasoned all they did was betray her, and she decided to shut herself in and not let anyone reach her heart.
And so is the tale of a locked girl who wanders the world with no one else but her shadow.
Others : Is an excellent archer and slightly above average in most other forms of fighting or defense. Has much knowledge of survival.
