Appearance: - Spoiler:
Para is a average height woman, standing at approximately five feet and six inches. This bringing her to be almost 132 in her weight. This is mainly due to her physic, which is that of a voluptuous woman. A rather large bosom, slim abdominal and curvy hips. She once tried to hide these features of herself but with most recent years, she has stopped and has embraced this about herself. Her eye were once hazel in color but after her transformation they had become much more green with a tint of gold. What accents her features most seems to always be her long, thick yet soft, violet hair which extends down to just below her rear.
Clothing of choice: During colder times, Para tends to wear clothing which covers her up much more. Normally a thin but long coat will cover her being as she walks along the crowded streets. Or, she wears longer pants and long sleeves to cover her flesh. When it's warm, however, the woman has no problem removing this attire and wearing a shortened skirt, knee-high boots and a very low cut shirt which expresses her bosom. This is mainly to draw in unsuspecting victims.
History: Born into the Benzen residence, Para lived a simple life. She was raised by her parents in Whiskey Peak within a simple home. The only child of two bounty hunters, Para was raised like a soldier. She a strict curfew, drills daily, and commanded. This, however, was a happy life. The young girl lived a strict life but it was also very relaxed. When not training with either parent, she was allowed to do as she wished. Normally this was to go out, enjoy the brightly lit sun and walk within the woods behind her house.
As a child, Para enjoyed spending her time around the family manor. To her, there was no such thing as pain, suffering, fear, guilt, depression or distress. Her father, at the time, worked as a Naval Commander for Whiskey Peak. He commanded over three thousand men (three Battalions) within his brigade. Because of this, Para's father was rarely at home, but when he was the young girl would sit with her father, learning about the military and how it operated. This fascinated the young girl and eventually made her wish to join the military one day.
When she had reached the age of thirteen, she began her training for the military without her parents truly knowing. Using her father's old brigade members that visited as her teachers. She had made each one swear not to speak of what they had taught her, not for her own self but for the sake of their jobs. This is something she continued until the day she had turned fifteen.
Her fifteenth birthday was the day her parents began to train her. They believed she had every right to know what they knew and thus, her mother and father taught her of their aspects in the military forces of Whiskey Peak. This all continued for four years. Until the day of Para's 19th birthday when everything seemed to change.
On the day of the female's nineteenth birthday, a fire erupted within the wine-cellar of her home. This fire, due to the mixing of the alcohol and a fallen lantern, was hard to put out and eventually burned half of Para's home but had also consumed her mother and soon her father within its burning grasp. From that day she has worn her mother's silver charm necklace, with a charm of an angel's wings, around her neck at all times.
After six months of reconstruction, Para's home was rebuilt to it's old glory. Upon this, the girl refused to stay within its walls. It was empty without her parents with her. Years passed and eventually she made her way to the near by pier. This day, the girl's life changed. She was convinced to leave her old home and ended up joining the Blue Phoenix Pirates, merely for the hell of it. Thus, this is where she stayed.
Personality:Normal: Para is a calm and relaxed young woman. She tends to keep to herself however, if need be, she will tell off he enemy of her friend and join a fight to protect those she holds dear. She remains to be a loyal and caring friend through any situation, though not many things can really keep her from being dangerous as she is quiet. Normally, Para has no problem with ending the lives of those she finds to be annoying, or just another meal. Yet, she will never kill without good reason. That goes completely against who she is. At times, Para can be seen as lustful but that is for a good reason. She has no problem in being flirtatious to get what she wants. Her body is just another weapon for her to use.
Work: Para is random and energetic yet focused and caring. She becomes a completely carefree person and enjoys the laughter of those around her. Her actions and movements become much more at ease and graceful when she is in her working state, which tends to be how she is most of the time. However, she remains to be a mystery due to not many knowing her personally.
Romance: Para is not one to fall into such things as romance. She tends to try to keep away from it due to finding it as something distracting and meaningless. However, she has always told herself that if there were to be someone that was like herself and could break her shell, she would not mind falling in love, even if it's just once.

Role-Play Sample: (Putting this in here for the hell of it)
A soft clicking echoed along the empty streets. Slowly a slender figure made a sharp left into an alley way and halted as she sighed.
"Wrong turn... Again..." She said with a slight frustration as she turned on her heels. Her eyes watching the pavement as she took her steps out of the alley and into a man. She stopped her movements, coming to a complete halt as she looked up at at the man which she had walked into.
"Sorry about that, sir." She said with a sweetened tone before being pushed into one of the walls of the alley.
"Ha! Sorry? I don't think so.. You're exactly who I'm looking for. You're the damn monster that killed my little brother!" The man shouted as he pulled out a standardized 9mm pistol. Her eyes looked at him with a saddened gaze. It wasn't because of what she did but more of the man's words.
"Sir... I'm sorry for your lose. Now please, don't point that at me. Someone could get hurt." She said as her violet bangs covered her eyes. This action gave the illusion of fear from her. However, this was not the case. As the man tightened his grip on the gun to fire. The sound of broken brick soon followed the firing of the gun as she then tilted her head to look at the man. Her hands placed on her hips then moved away from them as two enclosed objects. Her gaze seemed more playful now as the woman smiled towards the now shaking man.
"I told you... Someone could get hurt." She said before moving towards the man. As she did, another man grabbed Para from behind. Locking his arms under her own to stop her arms from swinging. Her left leg rose then stomped down on the man's foot. Her heel twisting and pushing forward to rip away the flesh of his skin within his shoe and also pulling his shoe so he lost his balance.
After the man that grabbed her had fallen she slipped her fingers into part of the objects which she had grabbed from her waist and flipped it. As so was done, two thick black blades were revealed infront of the two men as Para stepped towards the first man. When the man backed up, her appearance was gone from before him. The man stopped his movements as his eyes darted around the alley in a panic. He took another step backwards, into Para and quickly turned around. As if expecting to be cut by her, he grabbed his own switch blade and pulled it out, aiming towards her abdominal region in a slicing motion.
Para took a half step backwards before pushing off her toes towards the man and using the brace which covered her knuckles in a tight metal hold to punch the man in the jaw. She then stepped back quickly as the sound of another figure moved toward her. Quickly, Para turned to face the man which had tried to hold her before and swung her left leg upward, aiming for the man's rib but hot her leg grabbed by him. As this happened he pushed her leg upward and caused her to fall backwards. Upon landing on her back, Para threw her second blade at the man, hitting him in the shoulder and causing him to grab at himself.
Without hesitation, the girl got up, grabbed the man by both shoulders and brought her knee upward, kneeing the man in the gut before retrieving her blade from his shoulder and slicing him in the throat. The slice to the throat was very shallow, causing a thing amount of blood to run from the man's neck as merely a warning.
"Both of you get the hell out of here and leave me alone before you end up like the last guy!" Para shouted at them. Both men stumbled their way out of the alley quickly, pushing eachother out of the way as they made their way out of the location. As they ran, she used a piece of cloth from her back pocket to clean the blood off the blades and sighed.
"I thought I had poison on these... Crap! Oh well... Atleast I got a gift out of it." She said as she laughed a bit, holding up the two wallets that she had slipped out of the men's pockets.
