Description

:iconrepubliccity::iconrepubliccity::iconrepubliccity:

╔Name╝
Yuka
╔Age╝
15
╔Nationality╝
Republic City
╔Affinity╝
Air - excitable, intelligent, quick
╔Skills╝
:bulletblue: Dance - The majority of Yuka's waterbending technique comes from tribal dances she learned from her grandmother. Though she is quite capable of utilizing waterbending for self-defense, she prefers to entertain and put on a show
:bulletblue: Sleight of Hand - Though she knows stealing is wrong, Yuka's nimble fingers have always been quick. The subtle hand-movements of her bending technique have refined these skills, and a keen awareness of the whole body and her surroundings make for a pesky little thief.
:bulletblue: Silver Tongue - Yuka is a charmer. Anything she can't take with her hands, she can get with her mouth.
╔Personality╝
Yuka's parents died when she was very young, leaving her to be raised by her grandmother alone. Though they never had much money, Yuka always found a way to get ahold of the things she wanted with her charm and bravado or failing that, guile and cunning. She's a natural speaker, and can get out of most sticky situations by talking, but her water-bending skills are also quite formidable and not to be underestimated. As an only child in the poor part of town, Yuka had to learn quickly to defend herself, and the waterbending she'd thought was just tribal dance lessons turned out to be invaluable for that purpose.

She has a bit of a Robin Hood complex, and considers herself not a thief, but a Wealth Redistribution Specialist. This side of her she keeps quite secret, especially from her grandmother who would be ashamed of the dishonor it would bring to their family, who were apparently important back in the Southern Water Tribe. But here in Republic City, that means little to Yuka, and even less to everyone else.
╔RP Sample╝
Another beautiful cloudless day dawned over Republic City's main square, but to call it such was to grossly understate the size and grandiose stature of the place. It was more of a plaza, filled with street performers, shops, stalls and vendors from all over the Republic looking to make their fortune in the vast crowds that passed through daily. Today was looking to be a good day for Yuka, a young water-dancer who'd already made a pocketful of Yuan with her flashy tribal waterbending techniques. There was a small crowd gathered around the little blanket where she turned, twisted, and moved around as fluidly as the water she commanded, which followed her hands like a ribbon.
╔Additional Info╝
Yuka carries a jug of special water saturated with crushed abalone shells around with her on her hip for flashy performances. She also enjoys cooking, though she's not very good at it, and loves to hang out with boys just to prove that she's as tough as they are and then some.

She's very cute, though she looks more like a nine or ten year old than a fifteen year old. Is that just your style of drawing?
