Questions Answered for #octournament

1. Who are you entering?

I am entering my very first and only OC Nariko Takahashi for this tournament. (Edit: she's my first InuYasha OC to clarify, I have other OC for other fandoms).

Link to wiki

2. What are they?

Nariko is a human from Kagome's modern-day world.

3. Do they have any magic? If so, what?

No, Nariko does not use any sort of magic.

4. What attacks/abilities do they have?

Well, she uses the Ninjitsu martial arts in combat and has a high stealth rate, 10/10.

5. Do they use a weapon? What is it?

Yes, Nariko's weapon is the flail. The flail is the stick with a chain in the top end and a spiked metal ball. But the chain showed in the picture is shorter than Nariko's. Her flail has a chain of approx. 20 feet long.

6. Describe their fighting style. Do they like to fight long-ranged, close-ranged, etc? Do they take more of a defensive stance or are they more on the offense?

Like I mentioned before, she is trained and uses the Ninjitsu style of martial arts. She often prefers to fight close-ranged. I'd describe her as a defensive fighter as well.

7. How do they react when fighting?

Nariko quickly analyzes the scene, the people/creatures involved in it, and type of fighting (magical, wrestling, etc.). Then she acts upon what she's seeing.

8. What tactics do they use in battle?

The longitude of her flail lets her tie her opponent in the long chain and drag/pull them closer so she can fight with ease. If this is not possible, she either runs straight at them or waits for them to get closer.

9. What are their strengths when fighting?

Her kunoichi (female ninja)/combat suit is made of a special leather that is harder to tres and has a hardened coat all over the outside that prevents hits to be as painful as they're ment to be. And she's also been training since she was 3 years old, so she has lots of knowledge in combats and everything about them.

10. What weaknesses do they have when fighting?

The only weakness when fighting is that her head isn't covered. Only her mouth with a mouthpiece. Althought her mouthpiece is made with the same materials as her suit, the back of the head isn't covered and a straight hit could even kill her (or any human that fights with their head uncovered).

11. How well do they handle the stress of battle? Do they panic easily?

She's been training for combat since she was 3, so she's used to it. She was taught to not be affraid of the opponent's appearance or tactics, but by the opponent's intentions.

12. Tell us more about how your OC copes in battle.

Even though her weapon is enormously long, she can control it pretty well. Yes, she's had a hard time learning to do so, but practice makes perfect (obviously she's not perfect altogether; nobody is).
