Misc.:
N/A
Personality: Astrid has a very tom boyish personality. Even though she has learned to dress more like a girl these days, she tends to act very much like the boys she was raised around. She loves exploring, fighting, being adventurous and just all around having fun.
This does not mean that she cannot have a bout of seriousness if she needs to. In fact, when it comes right down to it, she is rather mature and has learned to do what is right. She has a high moral code which has been instilled within her since birth, and she refuses to stray from that.
She is her Father's daughter. Still very much a girl to idolize the man, and to this day still wears the band that he gave her as he died. The very same one that he wore upon his eyes his entire life. This is a testament to how devoted she is to her Father's memory as well as that of her Mother.
She is typically friendly, and fun going. Though she can be a bit mean when she wants to be and is prone to the same snippy attitude of most 19 year old girls.
She is still figuring out who she is, so she is likely to change personality types over and over again until she figures it out. But, that is all part of growing up.
Closed off. Despite her open seeming personlity, she is indeed shut off from the rest of the world where it counts. Inside her heart and soul. Not even her own family has been able to reach the depths of who she is.
Mentality: She has a good head on her shoulders, and can be rather stubborn. She will NOT admit weakness, not even when she is beaten down to the point of being unable to stand. She is determined and has a great will.
Sane, for the most part. Her night terrors from youth having thinned out. Though she does still have occasional nightmares about the night that her parents were murdered right before her eyes. Something she never really let herself grieve over and still keeps bottled up within her. That dark presence that is always lurking inside her heart and keeps her from getting truly close to anyone.
Ideal:
It is her birth right to be a great warrior and with proper training and focus she will one day achieve this goal. Though a little careful planning never hurt anyone.
Belief:
“It is only when a person pushes them self to their limit that they know what they are truly made of. “
Defining Marks:
She carries a single scar that runs the length of her left calf muscle, starting at her knee and extending all the way down to her ankle. It is the result of the night her parents were murdered and her qi exploded from within her. The injury a direct result of the events that took place due to that explosion of power.
Description: Astrid is short in stature but has a beauty none the less. She has dark hair and soft, pale eyes. Her skin is a soft olive tone, and her figure is not overly thin nor overly filled out. She seems to be rather trim and fit. The usual for her family she supposes.
Though typically, the women are not fighters and tend to be a bit softer. She on the other hand is not quite so soft. Her hands having a few scars here and there from various fights she has been in and her muscles, while not overly defined are not overtly soft either.
She has the appearance of both a model and of a fighter, depending upon what she is wearing and what she is doing. The situation dictates how her appearance comes across.
She will wear anything from dresses to shorts to jeans and t-shirts. Whatever fits the situation is what she will wear.
The only thing consistent about her appearance is the fact that around her wrist she wears the headband her Father gave her as he laid dying in her arms. The one that he wore all his life.
Fighting Style: Kickboxing ( sort of. She has her own unique style to things and generally she does whatever the hell works to get the job done. )
Years Practiced: Four years total
Description: A martial art and sport of attack and defense, in which competitors wear boxing gloves and throw punches as in boxing and kick with their bare feet as in karate.
History:
----------------------Daddy Play With Me!!!---------------------
“Daddy!!!”
The sound of the little dark haired girl’s call could be heard throughout the house as she hurried down the stairs of the family home. Dressed in a pretty pink dress, her long black hair pulled up into two pig tails on either side of her head, her brown eyes seeking out every inch of the house. She was clearly no more than 5 years old.
But she was a girl on a mission. The mission? Seek out her Daddy and attack him with kisses and hugs until he decided to play with her. Yes. It was a very top secret mission. One that she had no intention of telling even Mommy.
Looking about the downstairs living room, she would let out a little huff of frustration as she noted that he was not here either.
She had checked all the bedrooms upstairs, and the bathroom, even the closets. No Daddy to be found.
Crossing her little arms over her chest she would let that lower lip stick out slightly. She was beginning to become very aggravated that she could not find him.
Then she heard the sounds of laughing coming from the back yard and that deep familiar tone speaking out. Instantly her eyes lit up as she took off running through the kitchen.
”Astrid. What have I told you about running?”
Her Mother’s words stopping her dead in her tracks as the innocent look fell over her little face.
”Sorry Mommy. I just wanted to go see Daddy.”
The woman’s eyes softening some from their scolding scowl as she smiled and tilted her head toward the back of the house. She did not get much time with her Daddy lately. He was always so busy, though he would never tell her what he was doing. But he had promised that he would be home all day today and she was planning on taking full advantage of that.
Smiling up at her Mommy she would turn and walk the rest of the way to the back door, standing on her tip toes to reach the handle and turning it with tiny hands. Then, once the door was open, those shimmering eyes would settle upon the familiar figure of her Daddy, tall in stature with that headband covering his eyes.
Suddenly all her Mommy’s warnings went right out the window as she took off running toward him. The sound of her Mommy letting out an exasperated sigh as she moved to stand in the open doorway. Now simply watching the scene before her.
“Daddy, Daddy, Daddy!!”
Giggling as she ran to him, seeing him turn toward her and bend down to scoop her up. Her little arms wrapping about his neck as she pressed a kiss to his cheek.
”There is my little princess.”
A small squeal of happiness being let loose at the sound of her nickname. Yes! She was Daddy’s princess and nobody better forget that.
”Play time Daddy! You promised!”
Remember the mission? Yeah, she was not about to falter from her goal. Another series of quick kisses delivered as she continued the hug of doom upon his neck. Hearing the sound of his deep laugh as he shook nodded softly.
”Okay okay. You got me. I have been defeated. What would you like to play?”
”Nothing too rough Love. You know I do not wish her to be around such things.”
The sound of her Mother’s words echoing from the back door. Gah! She never got to have any fun!
”I know Dear. I know.”
He would then lean in and whisper in her ear.
”How about we play hide and seek and then when
Mommy is not looking I will show you a few moves?”
She once more giggled with happiness as she wiggled to get down. She of course would do all the hiding cause honestly Daddy was not very good at it. She always found him.
As he set her down she would turn and run off. Yelling out behind her as she did.
”NO PEEKING DADDY!!”
She laughed as she said it. Knowing full and well that was never something she had to worry about with Daddy.
Honestly she did not think that life could ever get better. She was probably one of the happiest little girls in the world. Holding both her parent’s love and affection. She was their world and they were hers. As far as she was concerned, things could just stay this way forever.
And for the next 10 years, they pretty much did……………………
---------------------It All Falls Apart------------------------------
It had started out like any other night. She had spent the evening helping her Mother with the dishes and then she had gone to practice her violin. Once done it was time to check in on Father and see that he did not need anything and then giving him a kiss on the cheek before heading up to bed.
The little girl had grown into a beautiful 15 year old young lady.
Delicate features that made many girls jealous and long raven locks which fell down past her shoulders. Deep brown eyes that showed a happiness and light that not many in this world held.
She was well educated, talented and beautiful. A true Sudeki female is what her Father told her every time he looked at her.
Those words letting her know that he was proud of her and that meaning more to her than anything in the world. It was all she had ever wanted to do in life. Make her parent’s proud.
So she had gone to bed, just as was expected, dressing in her knee length cotton gown and drifting off into a peaceful slumber.
But halfway through the night, it was all shattered with the sounds of glass breaking and her Mother’s screams.
Brown eyes shot open about the time the door to her room was blown open. Shards of wood flying about the room.
”DADDY!!!!”
Screaming out for him as she tried to crawl off the bed, only to feel a set of large arms wrap about her waist, lifting her up and holding her off the ground as she again screamed out for, who in her opinion, was the strongest man she had ever known.
“DADDY!!!! HELP ME!!!”
A dark laugh coming from the male that held her as he turned and proceeded to carry her out of her room, kicking and still screaming, down the stairs and into the back yard.
”I found the daughter.”
Holding her there as her eyes fell upon a group of men and women, all of them very very tall and scary looking.
”RELEASE MY WIFE AND CHILD!”
The sound of her Father’s voice drawing her attention toward the spot where him and her Mother were. He was hurt! Badly! Her Mother struggling to keep him down as he forced himself to stand once more. Blood pouring down his chest and back. His face bruised and bloodied.
A male approached him, laughing as he shook his head, throwing a fist directly to her Father’s face and sending him down again.
”Fool! Do you think we would let any Sudeki walk away from this?”
The man’s hand raising as he motioned for her. Her small body dragged toward them as she struggled to get free. Tears flowing down her face as they threw her down to the ground feet from her parents.
She tried to get to them, tried to crawl her way toward the pair.
But a large hand grabbed her hair, jerking her back and forcing her to look up at the man who had struck her Father.
”Now watch this little one.”
With that he would turn and wave his hand as if dismissing her parents as nothing.
Suddenly the group converged on them, one woman reaching down and grabbing her Mother, lifting her up and dragging a knife across her throat. Blood pouring from the wound as Astrid screamed. Though her sounds were nothing compared to those of her Father. Every bit of rage the man held being released as he came to his feet once more, lunging at the woman who by now had dropped her Mother to the ground.
As he did though, the woman would shift out of the way, raising that knife as the young girl looked on in horror, and bringing it down into her Father’s back. The blade long enough to pierce through his chest.
Tears clouding her eyes, Astrid watched as her Father fell to his knees, blood coming from his mouth as he struggled to speak, all the while dragging himself toward her. Trying to reach her. But before he could, another male was behind him, grabbing his hair, lifting his head, and in turn slitting his throat as well.
She screamed once more as pain the likes of which she had never known consumed her. Watching as her Father fell and then feeling herself being released.
She crawled to him, tears streaming down her face as she pulled the blade from his back and rolled him over. Resting his head in her lap she placed her small hands over his neck, trying to stop the bleeding.
”D..Daddy…P..Please…don’t leave me.”
Sobbing out the words as she struggled to maintain control. If she could just stop the bleeding he would be fine. Right?
She was a smart girl, she knew deep down that it was not true, but she tried none the less. Feeling her gown becoming soaked with the warm crimson liquid that poured from her Father. Reaching up with one trembling hand, she pulled the headband from about his face, gripping it tightly as she looked down at him.
”Daddy?”
She whimpered out, trembling as she saw his hand struggling to raise, reaching out to her….but his touch never fell upon her face. Because in that instant he let out one final gurgled breath, his hand hitting the ground as all life left his form.
She lowered her head, crying against his chest as she cried out for him. Gripping that head band as tightly as she could. It was all she had left of him now. All she would ever have of him.
Then, from all around her, the sounds of laughter echoed through her mind.
They were laughing?!!
Her Father, her Mother…..lay dead upon the earth and they were laughing!?
So much pain, so much rage, it consumed her. She felt walls inside herself breaking, felt as though a dam had burst as power the likes of which she had never felt began to spread through her entire form. She was shaking…..
Wait……
She as not shaking…..it..it was the ground….
The laughter of those around her quickly dying as the rumble of the earth grew heavier, a roar sounding from deep within the Earth’s surface.
Suddenly, she felt a hand grab her, pulling her to her feet and letting her Father’s dead body fall to the ground once more.
Standing there, she looked down at her hands, the Earth still shaking, as she stared at the blood that coated her…..Her Father’s blood.
Brown eyes turned to look at the murders. The people who had taken her entire world and destroyed it in a single night. And as she looked at them, the final dam broke free.
Energy surging through her as an invisible wind seemed to surround her. Her black hair lifting up and flashing to blonde before settling down around her once more.
Everyone there taking a step back as they recognized this for what it was. They had pushed this little, harmless looking Sudeki to the breaking point.
But it was too late now. For instantly that low rumble of the earth increased, now everything around them was shaking, the walls to the house cracking as glass could be heard breaking from inside. The windows busting out as the surge of power increased more.
Surrounding them was the concrete wall that had surrounded the entire property. It too began to crack and shift as those around her struggled to get away. But before they could everything around them began to collapse. The wall, the house, everything, much of it falling upon those who ran, crushing them beneath the debris.
She did not know how many were killed that night, or what exactly happened. She simply remembered a piece of wall falling toward her. Crushing her leg beneath it and in turn knocking her out.
The next thing she knew, she was at the Sudeki temple. Her leg having been healed though a scar would always remain. She was told that several of the Katashi clan had gone on a killing spree that night. Taking out several members of the branch families of the Sudeki clan.
Her home had been the last and now, there was something that they needed from her. Due to the fact that they had lost so many to the wars between clans, their numbers dwindling massively, and because her parents had both been killed that night……
The leader of the clan had decided that she was to move to Long Beach and seek out the Lightening Dragon for training.
So that is what she would do. She would grow stronger, and she would work to help avenge her parents’ deaths. She would not stop until she was strong enough to take on any enemy. Until she never again had to feel the helplessness she felt the night her entire world fell apart.
And if anyone could help her……It was Uncle Leon.
------------------------------------------The Missing Years----------------------------
She had gone to PHS 774 for awhile, attempting to protect that bitch Kevala Katashi per request of her cousin Spike Sudeki. But the woman had proven rather difficult to keep track of and even harder to get along with.
So, when things had begun to fall apart, she had taken off and gone into a sort of self induced seclusion. She needed time to think, needed time to get her head on straight.
Not much is known about this time she was gone, and she will not tell.
Yet another part of her that has been closed off from the world. Though when brought up, there is something in her eyes that speaks of something dark and saddening.
Still, there is something different about her. Something that has changed inside her and created a different girl than everyone once knew. She doesn't take failure as an option.
Not after all she has been through. No matter what it takes.
She will NOT lose.
Sooooo............
For now, she is back. The recent war having drawn her out of hiding. Time to get back to life she guesses. Though how that will work out, she has yet to decide.

~Qi Ability~
The Fist of Shadow
Description: The Shadow of the Fist Qi developed by Astrid Sudeki is an incredibly powerful ability that allows the user to meld into the shadows and use the element of surprise to catch her opponents off guard and hit critical areas. It is known for being a Qi that takes intense training and practive to master as the abilities require the Twin Disciplines to expand its full potential.
Strengths: The Fist of the Shadow is a snowball Qi, once the user develops a high enough understanding of it as well as a statistical pool to support the abilities it becomes an insanely powerful ally to be used to the user's advantage. The use of combos allows for its critical output to be massive, as well as its value on survivability and escape. Its reliance on an Energy pool gives it no reliance on Intelligence or Wisdom aside from basic leveling.
Weaknesses: The Fist of the Shadow however has quite a few blaring weaknesses. For one, its energy pool is severely capped. Therefore expending too much energy at one instance depletes the usages of Astrid's maximum potential and will reder the Qi useless. The cooldown rates for higher output abilities are high and will therefore require concise timing to take full advantage of. Is unreliant when supporting allies, has no means of helping them.
Leveling Up: Each level is achieved by every 10 Wisdom.
Costs: Energy used to initiate each ability. Astrid has a value of 200 Energy Flat rate at any time. Energy Regenerates 10 every post, meaning that it requires 20 posts to refill her max energy.
Spell Vamp: Refers to the amount of energy sapped from each attack, this is valued by a percent of the damage dealt. For example Astrid has 10% spell vamp and deals 10 damage therefore she is returned +1 Energy to her energy pool.
