Nori; With a little fun gimmick added

HARD WORK AND GUTS.
This is my major fancharacter, Nori. Might seem like Agare is one of my mains but Trochadero is an extended universe of mine. Nori is my main. She's a mix of Noriko Takaya from Gunbuster and Nono from Diebuster, with a n original backstory and hopefully an original story ahead. Now, originally she's a fully developed character but when you read though this, you'll notice a great deal missing... I'll explain why at the end.


Basic Information:

Name: Nori
Alias: Devil Machine, Gunbuster
Age: (?) (Physically: 18)
Gender: Female
Species: Unknown (???)
Date of birth: Unknown
Place of birth: Unknown
Current residence: No residence
Occupation: None/Freelancer
Alignment: Good (Neutral)


Physical Description:

Image: N/A
Height: 6' 1''
Weight: N/A
Appearance: Light pink hair with a long fluffy ponytail (reaching her waist), with a single, angular 'antennae' of hair near her forehead, blue eyes with unnatural '4-point star' shaped pupils. Though her build under the armour is lithe, she's never been seen to take it off, nor have people been able to remove it from her. Her hair colour switches from pink to orange with a soft red glow during 'Buster Mode', and full on deep red during 'Hyper Mode'.

Normal Mode
Buster Mode
Hyper Mode

Attire: Wears an armour-suit as depicted in this image and accompanying this suit she wears a white scarf and a pair of pink frameless goggles, sometimes worn off her eyes. She always wears them over her eyes during Buster/Hyper Mode. These goggles change colour respectively to which mode Nori is in, mimicking her hair colour.


Personal Information:

Personality: Nori holds true to the idea of a bright, naïve and happy heroine. She shows very little understanding of the wider world around her, but holds strong views on right and wrong and is passionate enough to make whatever message she's trying to make, come across. It takes her time to grasp many different concepts that she exhibits no understanding of and making it just that much more difficult to actually teach her, she has a fairly short attention span, frequently diving into tangents or unrelated subjects and frustrating those trying to drill a point into her. This lack of attentiveness tends to extend into excitement when she encounters things she's never seen or things she's never done before. Fortunately, Nori finds it easy to get attached to certain figureheads, which generally increases the level of attention she provides this person to almost obsessive levels. She is still kind enough to give others help when they need it When in a fight, Nori actively responds to opponent's ramblings and taunts and displays a much greater understanding of the concepts of right and wrong. She takes on a far more serious tone when in a fight and has a much more hot-blooded attitude when actively fighting. She frequently calls her attacks out, but stops if this proves disadvantageous. If Nori loses in a battle, even if it's a friendly sparring match, she'll often stoop into depression for a short while, the length depending on the severity of the loss.

Hobbies/Talents
1: Baseball - Nori is an excellent baseball player. With an amazing pitch and a great batting arm, she's usually the first picked on the team. Some consider her young age but capability as a major league baseballer to be bizarre, but nobody has quite put their finger on how she might achieve this.
2: unknown
3: unknown
4: unknown
5: unknown
Likes: Chocolate cheesecake, her favourite friends, baseball, iced tea, flowers, rollercoasters, anything else fun to do, space travel, plushies
Dislikes: Bad guys, losing fights, losing sports, bullies, burning herself, lava lamps, cold places, having her hair pulled, cables, mobile phones
Items: None carried
Vehicles: None


Relationships:

Family: Roland Garma - Adoptive father of Nori. He knows a little more about the origins of Nori than even she herself can recall, but he looked after her for a time after finding her like she was his own daughter. She still keeps in regular contact with him.
Close Friends: None yet.
Other Friends: None yet.
Romantic Interest: None yet.
Rivals: None yet.
Enemies: None yet.


Battle Information:

Skills
  • Agility and Speed - Nori, thanks to a lithe build, has always been quick and agile. Finding it easy to move around, this gives Nori a great deal of evasive potential and gives her high acceleration when it comes to running on foot, to the point where she can reach her max speed from the word go.
  • Flight - Nori can use the rocket thrusters in her boots to fly. While she can fly at high speeds, it can be difficult to control. She has yet to get full control of how to fly properly, nor can she do anything acrobatic in midair.
  • Space Survival - Nori is capable of going out into space without an oxygen supply, and is capable of using the thrusters in her boots to maneuver.
  • Radio Control - Nori has an odd skill in that she can hack and command certain machines to do her bidding. While this skill has benefits, she isn't particularly refined in this field and so cant bypass tough firewalls or encryptions. It's unknown how she manages this currently, but it is also known that this skill can be reversed, having foes taking control of Nori.
  • Buster/Hyper Mode - Two forms that Nori takes on during combat. Buster Mode is her basic form, which she takes on during combat. It gives her access to her regular combat skills and seems attached to her change in her personality. Hyper Mode is Nori's 'super' form. This only comes from an incredible boost in energy and power, Hyper Mode being her way of venting this energy. Her attacks gain incredible power in this mode and she is capable of using a power known as 'Inertia Cancel' to defend herself from harm. Nori cannot exit Hyper Mode until her entire energy supply is emptied, meaning she cannot resume combat after exiting the mode.


Techniques
  • Inazuma Kick - A basic but infamous technique from Nori's home. After a high leap, Nori comes down with one foot ready to spear into the ground. The attack has a high kinetic potential and produces an electrical effect as Nori's foot cuts through the air. If her foot meets with the ground, it produces a small shockwave effect. [Buster Mode]
    ====> ????? - Requires Nori to enter Hyper Mode for the first time [Hyper Mode]
    ====> ????? - Requires a major story event to happen to Nori while in Hyper Mode. [Hyper Mode]
    ====> ????? - Requires an ally to be able to perform the Inazuma Kick. [Buster Mode]

  • Buster Beam - A powerful beam attack fired straight ahead. It takes a moment to charge up the attack, but the beam can be re-aimed mid-fire. This creates a whip like effect with the beam. The beam itself has a semi-physical presence, capable of driving foes back, but has no penetrative potential, instead burning foes with the energy and hopefully driving them far enough back so they slam into a wall. [Buster Mode]
    ====> Buster Beam Slicer - An improved Buster Beam attack. Though it loses the ability to be re-aimed, the beam gains the ability to penetrate foes alongside its former effects enhanced to even more dangerous levels. The beam can also be split into two, in a technique known as the “Slice”, where the beam splits apart while pierced through a foe, cutting them apart. The attack is capable of shearing event positively huge opponents in two. [Hyper Mode]

  • Buster Blaster - Numerous gatling pods extend around Nori's lower arm and open fire on the opponent. They fire small beams in rapid succession. These beams produce micro-explosions on contact, effectively burning opponents on contact. Fires fast, but has a high recoils and from that, low accuracy. [Buster Mode]
    ====> Buster Missile - 4 missile pods open up around Nori's lower arm. These pods fire out missiles in rapid succession that have a slight homing effect on their opponent. These missiles explode more fiercely than the laser blasts of the Blaster. [Buster Mode]
    ====> ????? - Requires Nori to lose to multiple opponents. [Buster Mode]

  • Buster Collider - A powerful electrical attack that is capable of knocking out electronics and deeply damaging foes. The attack requires continual contact with the foe. Upon striking the foe, long spikes fire out from Nori's forearms, and penetrate into the foe. Here, they release an incredible electronic surge through the foe. Even coming close to the spikes is dangerous, due to the surges of electricity. [Buster Mode]
    ====> Double Buster Collider - The same as the Buster Collider, however spikes fire from the lower legs of Nori too. This allows Nori to attack multiple opponents at once, or produce double the damage against a single opponent, however Buster Mode doesn't provide enough energy to produce this. [Hyper Mode]

  • ????? - Requires Nori to be involved in a major story event somewhere. [Buster Mode]
    ====> ?????? - Requires a major story event.[Buster Mode]

  • ????? - Requires Nori to advance in her technological capabilities [Buster Mode]

  • Combination Attack 1 - ????? - Requires a developed attack with a friend. [Buster/Hyper Mode]

  • Combination Attack 2 - ????? - Requires a developed attack with a friend. [Buster/Hyper Mode]

  • Combination Attack 3 - ????? - Requires a developed attack with a friend. [Buster/Hyper Mode]

  • Legendary Attack - ????? - Requires a developed attack with a close friend/lover. [Buster/Hyper Mode]


Strengths
Versatile -Nori is incredibly versatile in most situations. Strong enough to break in to bases and disable security but also capable of fighting at close range or long range. She's also good at working her attacks together with her comrades, creating even more options for victory.
Brave - Nori will always stand up against her foe, no matter the size or power, or even how long it would take to beat them. She has the courage to take on long quests and endless opponents, just to protect one person.
Relentless - Nori will never surrender in a fight, and if a villain flees, she'll follow unless physically stopped. She'll never give up no matter what the odds and even if she's badly damaged, she'll go her best to stand up and continue the fight.
Loyal - Nori finds it easy to make friends, though she does take a more obsessive route when she meets someone she admires. However all her friends, be they big or small, or even if they don't think of HER as a friend, she will be incredibly loyal towards them and never speak ill of them in conversation, nor will she plan against them ever... unless something extreme happens.
Protective - Nori is the sort to take a bullet for her friends if they're in danger. Be it a loss of her repute or a threat of death, Nori protects her friends any way she can.

Weaknesses
Limited - Nori can wear herself out incredibly quickly, and she has a hard time holding back against people established as villains. This can wear her energy down quickly and leave her without anything left in a dangerous moment.
Distractable - Nori can easily be thrown off by distracting her with something else. From distracting her with cheesecake to stop her running off into a fight to threatening her friends while she fights, this is enough to make her falter and stop.
Controllable - Nori's strange alien heritage created some panic in her foes and they began working on ways to beat her. Soon, some enemies discovered that Nori could be controlled via different radio frequencies or be 'reprogrammed' through certain viruses. Nobody has yet understood how this work, as Nori has defeated anyone with the knowledge about her heritage.
Gullible - Villains have also found that getting to Nori first can mean making her their ally first. As long as they keep their stories subtle, Nori will be fooled into thinking they're the good guys and fight against the actual good guys. Her gullibility can extend in numerous different ways though, sometimes even meaning people taking advantage of her.
Overdoing - Nori's most dangerous trait is her unrelenting nature. This extends into her going on almost forever to track down one enemy, resulting in her either being lost or being beaten so hard that she may die. However since Nori sets no limits on herself, she never quite understands the term 'over-the-top'.

Weapons
  • Buster Baseball Bat - A strange weapon created from unknown alien materials. Initially is appears as a small metal cannister but telescopically extends and reshapes into a steel baseball bat. Any evidence of telescopic mechanics on the bat are removed once it's fully extended. The bat is capable of blocking energy weapons and physical weapons too, giving it great versatility as a melee weapon. Nori uses this weapon as a genuine baseball bat whenever she plays the game.
    ====> Buster Tomahawk - The Baseball Bat is capable of transforming further, extending and producing two axe-blades, creating a double headed axe known as the Buster Tomahawk. This axe replaces the blunt force of the baseball bat with a heavy brutal cutting force of an axe. While it's harder to wield, it's a devestating weapon in combat if used properly.
    ========> Buster Double Tomahawk - A further extension of the baseball bat, this time extending the second side to incorporate a second axe. The Double Tomahawk is only used to facilitate spinning blade like attacks, enabling Nori to cut through opponents far easier, but it is also even more cumbersome to wield in combat. It is considered ineffective to wield as a melee weapon other than for it's cutting attacks.



History

Much of Nori's early history is coated in a blanket of unknowing. Nori herself only remembers as far back as her days on Entokyia, drawing up a blank about anything before that time. The man who found the girl and took her in, Roland Garma, claims he found the girl "drifting in a debris field in space". He never questioned how she was capable of surviving in space and was more concerned with if the girl was injured or not. He took her in and raised her for a year, helping her to garner some basic knowledge on the world, before she expressed a desire to travel and help people with all the evils in the universe. Despite looking down at such a naïve and fantastical journey, he let her go.

Nori's first adventures took her to a land in Entokyia that was besieged by G.U.N for being rich in minerals yet unwilling to surrender them. It was here that Nori had her first adventure. While she would make no major friends throughout, she became respected among the people there as the only person willing to fight back against the G.U.N machines. She discovered and perfected many of her basic abilities throughout her first journey and gained a perfect control of the initially bewildering and powerful Buster Mode she possessed. With these powers, she managed to drive G.U.N back through sheer determination, despite how many mechs and troops they sent at her. She was respected by her foes for never killing, but being forceful enough to make them have to retreat.

Through this success, she was found by a young scientific group looking to find out how Nori was capable of such feats, such as producing guns and electrical spikes from her arms, or being capable of creating kinetic ripples strong enough to damage the thickest steels. When they attempted to scan her however, they turned nothing up. Nori was an anomalous being. They were unable to penetrate xrays through her, nor could they use conventional and safe methods of removing her armour, due to its incredible durability. Unable to figure out how Nori was capable of these apparently meta-physical feats, they theorised that it was her armour that was capable of forming these extensions, and released Nori with this information. Believing she had magic armour to help her on her quest, Nori decided to venture further from home... to other planets.

She ventures to numerous different planets in this time, discovering even more about her abilities and helping out even more people. Her actions would range from helping kids who'd fallen down a cliff, to beating villains with some other renowned heroes. But she had never once made a name out of herself. Only that one land in Entokyia ever learned her name. After that, it seemed as if she was avoiding attention, helping only because she wanted to and not for the sake of fame or glory. What caused this was Nori feeling lonely. She didn't understand why, but the people she met and fought with never expressed interest in being friends with her. They merely thanked her and went about their ways. Soon Nori's desire to help for the sake of helping gained a second motive, an ulterior one. She wanted to help people now, so she could make friends with them. She wanted to find someone she could respect as a big sister.

She now ventures off from her latest endeavour with new motives in mind. Where she goes now is anyone's guess, with only Roland ever knowing where Nori is at any time...


Now, the reason a lot of her personal info and development is missing or is fairly short is because I want to develop Nori here. I wanna RP with you guys and see how she'll turn out when there are others involved in her development. So if you find Nori an interesting character and want to RP with her or work some development/relationship out between characters, drop me a PM and we'll see what we can make up. Thanks for reading guys, it's been a pleasure writing this up for here.

It depends entirely on what you're going to do. I wouldn't appreciate a completely mimickry of her, but if you're working on a character who'd want to be in her chronology somewhere, that's alright.

If it's the template you're looking for, click here for it. The only difference I made to it was probably adding the 'variants' to her attacks.

No problem.

For anyone looking this way, I'm always on the lookout for people to do RPs and character developments with. I'd like to get Nori into the great continuity of this forum so...

Then there's not a whole lot you can do there. I may randomly make RP's with her in at some stage but I'm more hoping to use Nori in planned RP.

This Nori you have here is a very impressive creation. Seriously, you should be proud of yourself.

It was extremely entertaining reading this bio/profile of her; and you have a very vivid imagination.

I see a lot of potential for character development in Nori, and that's always something good, in my book. I don't particularly like it when people enter Rp's or create character profiles with every single aspect of their character absolutely set in stone.

I like what you've done. I can appreciate her personality and her traits. Oh, and her skills/moves and battle style are really familiar yet original, which is difficult to do, so I commend you for it.

Great job.

Thanks very much for the positive feedback, Kitty.

I'm still pretty eager to get Nori into an RP. If I do spy an adventure-style RP that could facilitate Nori, I'll likely jump into that.

Developing Nori should be good fun.

You know, you and I are kinda in the same boat. I'm trying to develop my main character, as well.

I also see a lot of similarities between our characters, as far as motivation and morals go.

You'll be receiving a PM from me shortly so we can discuss a possible PRP. Cool?
