Personality

Personality type: ENTP

Moral alignment: Chaotic Good

Interacting: Lei has no problem mingling with people, introducing herself and involving in whatever activities there be, and superficially, is very charismatic. She can quickly blend into whatever is expected of her (if convenient) and it brings a good amount of appraisal her way. Her problem comes when her arrogance rears its ugly head, she’s quick to cut people down for extremely petty reasons.

Mannerisms: Head held high and back straight at all times, a very big hand-to-hip person, brisk walker, hand gestures are a thing, every movement could be interpreted as a pose

Attitude: Queen Bee; She feeds on attention and will do anything she can to establish that she’s the most important person in the room. Her confidence is something to behold and if not for her looks, would be the the first thing to turn heads. She’s been taught to treat people as stepping stones, and acts accordingly, but those she grows a liking to learn that she will do anything in her power to make sure they stay afloat beside her.

Abilities

Superpowers:

  • Kitsunebi/Fox Fire/Pyrokinesis: Manipulation of a ghostly white-blue flame, it behaves like normal fire but this particular flame is much more devastating to the paranormal.

    • Drinking sake (a strong Japanese alcohol made from rice) adds a power boost to this ability, however she crashes a lot sooner

  • Kitsune no Me/Fox Eyes/Supernatural Sight: The ability to see things in the otherworldly plane (i.e demons in disguise, ghosts). This also bleeds into her other senses, such as smelling sulfur or hearing voices

  • Ofuda/Gofu/Paper charms: These charms have several uses, most common being defense and exorcisms

    • Bombs: Either instant or timed, bomb ofuda explode in kitsunebi

    • Barriers: These ofuda can keep something in or out; a complicated version of a barrier charm can cast an illusion, used to hide something or confuse an opponent

    • Exorcism: Tagging these ofuda on a possessed being or object can drive out the possessor

  • Enchanted Parasol: This parasol allows her to glide great distances, create a personal shield and can be used as a club/bat-like melee weapon.



Supplements to superpowers:

  • Immunity to fire/extreme heat/cold: The starball in Lei grants her constant homeostasis in extreme weather as well as protection from any kind of fire

  • Other Fire Manipulation: With more concentration and energy required, Lei can also use fire that is not her own, however it leaves her much more drained afterwards

  • Emotion/Aura Reading: Her “Fox Eyes” ability allows her to see the souls inside living beings, from there she was get information such as emotion and supernatural attributes


Limitations of superpowers:

  • Aquatic Environments: Being around big bodies of water drains Lei’s powers, bringing them to about half as efficient as they should be

    • Being drenched in water completely cuts off her all her powers; rain is a no-no

  • Overexertion: Trying to use her Fox Eyes to see too many things at once or an overly “radiant” (powerful) soul will cause major discomfort, it can knock her unconscious in some cases, much like being blinded by a bright light

  • Little Experience: Being brought up in a high class childhood where everything was handed to her in a silver platter has left a lot to be asked when it comes to one-to-one fights. She’ll try to use her parasol as a weapon, but if all else fails, she’s practically done for  


Talents: Singing, Dancing, Fashion-related topics, Flirting, Bartering, Manipulation, Partying, Drinking, Quick Thinking, Deadpan Humor, Teasing

Life

Leiko Ara was born to two well-off socialites, they divorced shortly after Lei was born and she fell under the custody of her father, Ryuu Ara. He and an infant Leiko packed up and left for the United States. Lei would never met her mother throughout her childhood and the circumstances of behind the divorce would remain nebulous for just as long.

But besides this, Leiko was pampered, almost spoiled rotten by her father. Lei became his pride and joy; she did exceedingly well in her studies, a genius at mathematics, and was always a popular student for both her good looks and charisma. Her father hammered the idea of Lei succeeding over his hotel chain in her, a future she found boring, but she accepted it.

However, there was always a part of her life that Lei could not ignore, the strange occurrences that dotted her life. She had ghost perception and at times exhibited features that were clearly belonging to that of a canine. Leiko learned to integrate these events into her daily life, but was reasonably curious on where it had come from. Her father did his best to soothe Lei’s questions, but kept his answers ever vague. What was always made obvious to Lei was that it was her mother to blame.

But Leiko didn’t truly try to search into her history until an altercation with a disgruntled student had caused Lei to defend herself with a sudden burst of blue-white flame. The other student was not hurt, but a few well placed bribes kept her from ever talking of the event. Ryuu tried to convince Lei to sweep it under the rug as well, but Lei could no longer try to ignore her oddities.

She practiced her newfound pyrokineses, despite her father’s open disapprovement, and dug through the inter webs for answers. What she found was a nearby shop for the occult and promptly made her way to it. She meets the owner of the store, a homomagi named Charles Jenson, who at one glance reveals that Lei’s soul is not one of a human. Instead, it seemed to be replaced by one of a spirit fox, a kitsune. Charles, intrigued, offers to help Lei out and explore her abilities in exchange for being able her study her predicament.

Lei eventually brings her training to the streets of New York, habitually visiting haunted sites and slowly building up a reputation as a local exorcist under the moniker, Kitsune


Turning Point:
Present Life: Lei spends her time pouring over spell books and learning the ways of supernatural combat. Her relationship with her father becomes increasingly strained as she does, so she opts to keep her studies a secret.

Future: About a year down the line, Lei runs into a secret ops team of teens as they’re tracking down the sorceress, Circe. She becomes particularly involved with the team speedster, Kid Flash, and after joining up with them to take down Circe, Kid tries to convince her to join the “Team.” She was reluctant at first, Lei didn’t plan on taking her abilities to such an extent, but an conversation gone awry with Ryuu causes her to join out of spite.  

Trivia

  • Lei’s fighting style has a very distinct “dance” vibe to it, which can be both very confusing and very entertaining

  • Lei has good leadership potential, if not for her massive ego.

  • Living up to her codename, Lei relies heavily on trickery and thinking outside the box. She’ll do anything to win.

  • Leiko has a near irrational fear of dogs, it’s not until she meets Charlie that they learn the reason for that is her fox soul, who see dogs as their predator.

  • With her being a pyro, one would think she’s got an above average body temperature. In fact, the more she uses her fire, the colder her hands get.

  • She was a massive bully before she discovered her pyrokinesis and was the reason why the student had attack her in the first place. Lei still has some of those roots, even after meeting the Team, but they’re quick to stomp that out of her.  

  • While being a bit of a health nut, she eventually develops the habit of eating chicken whizzees when stressed, influenced by Wally

I seriously can't handle Lei's sense of fashion for both her civilian and hero outfit here, I mean, it's so on point. And her bio is great, too.
