Major Likes: Quinn has a passion for gymnastics, the only sport she does. She's
been doing gymnastics since she was a child and has always had a talent for it.
She loves to read manga, especially her brother's, entitled Hakkyou Gugen, or
Insanity Incarnate. Quinn likes her brother quite a bit, as the two have been
very close and nearly inseparable since birth.
Major Dislikes: Quinn has an intense dislike of stereotypes. She and Ric used to
be teased for their eyecolor and had the hurtful nickname of Demon Children
hoisted upon them, all because of a stereotype. She hates rainy weather because
it destroys her hair and makes it stringy and wet. Quinn doesn't really like
working at The Manor, but would never confess this. She also dislikes being
underestimated in her abilities.
NPC Friends and Family:
Mona Aberthol ("Advisor of Sacrifice"); Mother (39); Mona has silver-grey hair,
not from old age, that falls to her chin in tight curls and cheerful carnation
pink eyes. She is approximately 5'2" and is of medium build. Mona takes care of
the hostessing at the family restaurant, The Manor. Mona is the disciplinarian
of the family and is very strict with her children. She wants only the best for
them and is rather protective.
Tarquin Aberthol (Tarquin is of disputed meaning); Father (41); Tarquin has
pitch black hair, cut in a short simple style, and onyx-hued eyes. He is 5'11"
and has a wiry build. He handles all the bookkeeping for The Manor and sometimes
helps his wife with the hosting duties. He lets his children run wild whenever
his wife isn't around to keep them in check.
Alaric Laertes Aberthol "Ric" ("Noble Ruler of Sacrifice"; Laertes is of unknown
meaning); Twin Brother (17); Ric and his sister Quinn are much alike in
appearance, something he doesn't always appreciate. Leaning toward the shorter
side at 5'9", Ric has wavy black hair that falls to his shoulders but is kept
back in a loose ponytail and the same rose-hued eyes as his sister. He has
delicate facial features much like his sister's, and delicate bone structure
also. He doesn't have much muscle tone and, though he would never admit it, has
been mistaken for a girl more than once. Quinn and Ric have been close since
they were kids and it is almost impossible to separate them. Ric is the wilder
twin, but luckily he has Quinn to take care of him and keep him out of trouble.
Ric is a talented artist and is currently working on creating his own manga.
Hunter Salvatici ("Savage Hunter"); Friend (17); Hunter is one of the close
friends of the twins. He has orange-red hair and jade green eyes. He is 6'1" and
has a well-toned build. He is Ric's partner in crime and is often being
chastised by Quinn.
Shanti Akiran ("Quiet Intelligence"); Friend (16); Shanti is Quinn's closest
friend and is usually rather soft-spoken. Shanti has mint green hair and
cranberry colored eyes. She is 5'8" and is very slender without much muscle tone
or curves.
Appearance: Quinn's ebony black hair falls to her lower back in gentle starlet
waves and is layered, framing her face slightly. It is very silky and shiny and
she takes careful care of it. Her hair is the thing about her appearance she
loves most and she does everything in her power to make sure it's always in its
best condition. The only time she will ever pull her hair back is when she is
doing gymnastics, or if she is having it done for a formal occasion. She has no
bangs, but her layers tend to fall slightly in her face and in front of her
shoulders. Her eyes are a rather interesting dusty rose red hue. When she is
having an angry mood swing, they tend to shift to a more intense crimson hue.
They are almond-shaped and of a medium size, neither too small or too large. Her
eyebrows are thin but dark and trace a delicate arch over her eyes at just the
right location. Her eyelashes are thick, dark and almost unnaturally long and
curly. Most people tend to think they are fake. Her face is diamond-shaped,
meaning her face is widest at her cheekbones and equally narrower at her
forehead and jaw line. It is very balanced and gives her a dramatic appearance.
Her cheekbones are rather high, but not unnaturally so. Her nose is average
length, though leaning more towards the smaller side, with a small rounded tip,
making it appear a bit more cute than elegant. Her lips are full and are pinkish
flesh toned in color. Her skin is soft and smooth, much due to her regimen of
putting lotion on before bed every night. Her skin is rather fair, but not quite
pale, with slightly rosy undertones to give her a healthy appearance. Her skin
burns rather than tans if she isn't careful. In the summer months, she may
experience a one to two shade difference in her skin tone. Her hands are
average-sized with thin fingers slightly longer than average. Her bone structure
is delicate, giving her a smallish look. She is 5'4" and weighs about 108
pounds. Her build is slender, but healthy, with quite a bit of muscle in her
arms and legs from gymnastics. Her stomach is flat, but not overly muscled, with
just enough muscle tone to give it a slight crease down the center of her
stomach. She dresses simply but elegantly in cute peasant tops or tank tops and
denim pants, shorts or jeans, or feminine skirts. When wearing a skirt, she
prefers sandals with laces that she can tie around her slender calves. When
wearing shorts, she dons simple thong sandals. Her makeup is rather unique in
the sense that she prefers dark dark red eyeliner. It is almost more black than
it is red, but it is quite obvious there is red in it. She sometimes wears
charcoal colored eye shadow, but always wears dark black mascara. She curls her
eyelashes, even more than their natural curl, and sometimes the tips of her
eyelashes touch her eyebrows. Quinn has rather good posture and walks with a
natural grace and flow. Her voice is distinctly feminine and rather
high-pitched, and switches between childish and motherly tones. Anything she
says comes with a certain softness and gentleness. Quinn rarely raises her voice
and speaks at a moderate tone. Her laughter is like tiny silver bells and many
will try to make her laugh just to listen to the wonderful sound.
Personality: Quinn is most definitely the most maternal of any group she becomes
a part of, mostly due to her nature as a Cancer. She worries about every single
one of her friends as a mother would, and likes to help them out when she can.
She cannot stand to see her friends in pain and would do anything in her power
to ease their pain. She is very emotional, often swinging from seething anger to
tears. It is very easy to know how Quinn is feeling because she makes no effort
to hide her emotions. Often the first to laugh and the first to cry, Quinn would
never hesitate to fill everyone in on what she was feeling. She can often be
quite moody and retreats into herself when angry or depressed. She is very
strong-willed and tenacious and enjoys getting what she wants. If she doesn't,
she can go into one of her mood-swings. She will do nearly anything to get what
she wants, and if kindness and gentleness doesn't work, she isn't above
manipulation of others to meet her ends. If none of this works to get what she
wants, she retreats back into herself again and sulks. If it was important
enough to her, however, she can become very vindictive and vengeful, so watch
out if you cross Quinn. Quinn is easily hurt and offended, and usually tromps
off to brood alone when she is. Though she is very easily hurt, she does not
hesitate to be sympathetic and sensitive towards the feelings of others and
shows her affections very freely. Quinn can be very selfish and possessive,
especially of her closest friend, her brother Ric.
History: Quinn's parents, Mona and Tarquin, met at her father's restaurant.
Tarquin inherited a restaurant from his father called The Manor in the Hae
district. Mona, 19 at the time, was dining with her family and Tarquin, aged 21,
was supervising the goings on of the restaurant. Mona's parents wished to ask
the opinion of the manager on the wine list, and Tarquin was most happy to
oblige. Mona and Tarquin were introduced, and the young restaurant owner was
enchanted by her. They dated for one and a half years and then were married. Not
too long after, Mona announced to her husband that she was pregnant.
Born in the month of July, Quinn is the elder of twins. When the twins were
born, Quinn was first, and Tarquin thought that this daughter was to be their
only child, so he named her Tarquinn Ophelia right away, but then along came
Alaric Laertes. There were never any more children born to the Aberthol family,
but they were quite content with their beautiful twins.
Quinn and Ric began gymnastics at the age of 5. She enjoyed it immensely, but
Ric absolutely loathed it. Ric was taken out and put into art classes and Quinn
continued on in gymnastics. Both excelled in their activities and got better as
they got older. Quinn eventually made the youth competition squad when she was
7.
School was nothing special for the twins, that is until they met Hunter and
Shanti. They had never really liked any of the other kids and mostly stuck with
each other, but Hunter and Shanti had qualities that appealed to them, so they
quickly became friends. Quinn spent most of her time from then on keeping Ric
and Hunter out of trouble, with Shanti as her informant. When Quinn and Ric
turned 15, their parents enlisted their help at The Manor, Quinn as a waitress
and Ric as a waiter. They have always hated working at the restaurant, but won't
say anything about it, though Ric would love to.
In her 17th year, Quinn was clearing up at The Manor after closing when she
found a beautiful golden bracelet. She put it in the lost and found but in a few
months it wasn't claimed, so once again cleaning up, she noticed it was still
there and decided to keep it. As she slipped it over her wrist, she was knocked
to the floor by some strange force and fell unconscious. She had a very strange
dream, telling her all about her bracelet, called a divya, and that she must use
it only for good, for it endowed her with an immense power. Nothing more was
learned from this dream, however, because Ric came and roused his sister,
telling her everyone was worried and sent him to see where she was.
Currently Quinn attends Pelagia High School, works at The Manor part-time, and
competes on the regional gymnastics team.
Senshi Name: Sailor Hoshea
Power: Sacrifice
Colors: Crimson and Gold
Items: Sailor Hoshea uses the Hoshea Divya, divya of sacrifice. It is a smooth
golden torque bracelet with rubies set into the metal. She also carries an
ornate ceremonial dagger with her at all times. It is called a wave dagger and
has a rather strange blade. The outsides of the blade, while sharp, are slightly
squiggled on both sides, like gentle ocean waves. The blade is made of a silver
and steel mixture. The hilt is black with a large round ruby set in its side.
There is another ruby set in the bottom of the hilt. The blade is about 16
inches long and the hilt is about 4 inches long.
Attacks:
Dark Sacrifice (10%)-"Dark..." Sailor Hoshea raises her dagger above her head,
the rubies glowing. Wind rips across the battlefield as power is gathered. She
spins around, once, twice, three times and on the last rotation when she is
facing the enemy once again she yells, "SACRIFICE!" She flings the dagger at
them, most likely aiming for their chest, and a power surge urges the dagger on
at an amazing speed. If this dagger hits dead on in the chest, getting it healed
immediately is necessary for survival. If it misses its target and hits an arm,
a leg, or anything else, it is rather painful but quite a bit easier to battle
with and much easier to heal. When contact is made the dagger disappears in a
puff of smoke and reappears in Sailor Hoshea's hand.
Sacrificial Bond (depending on situation, can be up to 20-30%)-"Sacrificial..."
Sailor Hoshea kneels on the ground, her eyes closed, and holds her hands up, the
dagger resting on her flat palms. The rubies glow furiously and her body begins
to glow a soft crimson. She grasps the dagger in her right hand and holds her
left hand open, her palm facing up. She makes a deep cut in her palm and the
blood that seeps out glows. She locks eyes with her chosen target and whispers,
"Bond..." The target glows briefly and an identical cut forms on their hand.
From then on, whatever injuries Sailor Facio sustains will be felt by them also.
There are three ways to stop the effects of this attack. The first is to touch
the first wound made on Sailor Hoshea, the cut on her palm. The second is to
touch one of the rubies on her dagger. And finally, the third is to heal her
injuries, breaking the spell and healing the enemy's injuries as well. There is
always the chance that Hoshea will run out of power and no longer be able to
hold up the attack.
