Character's Name: Hwang Bu-ling
Series: Tokyo Mew Mew
AU or Canon: Canon
Birthdate: August 7
Age: 9
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Physical Description: Bu-ling is a small Chinese girl with huge, heavily accented orange-brown eyes. In her regular form, she has fluffy, light blonde hair that goes to about her chin and sits in a cute mess all around. Little but loud, she's constantly bouncing about and has a tiny, slightly muscled body from all of her physical activity. She got enough stares back home for her attention-grabbing antics, so being gaped at for her bright orange traditional Chinese clothing doesn't bother her in the slightest.
When Bu-ling displays great courage, her DNA alterations activate. Her ears turn into the big, brown, fuzzy ears of a wild monkey, and she also gets a monkey tail.
A conscious transformation occurs when Bu-ling uses her mew pendant to transform into Mew Pudding. In this form, her hair becomes a darker yellow and gets four tiny braids in the back; she also has the animal parts previously stated. She gains a one-piece outfit designed to let out her tail, which is bright yellow and has poofy pants, no sleeves, seams down the front, and a modest chest hole to show her pendant. Said pendant hangs from a yellow choker with orange trim. She also has yellow puffy armbands with orange trim, rough orange fingerless gloves, orange ballet flats and yellow legwarmers with orange ribbons around them.
Personality: Hwang Bu-ling is, on the surface, very childish. She appears completely selfish, obsessed with money and attention, and always wanting to have fun. However, underneath this is a kind and giving soul that only wants what she does for the survival of both herself and those that depend on her, and tries to have fun to forget the responsibilities piled upon her at her young age.
Bu-ling can be summed up as... hyper and energetic, ridiculously friendly, and forceful to her own ends. Upon meeting someone new, she'll cling onto them, start calling them "oniichan"/"oneechan", and immediately tie them down and make them watch her breathe fire and bang on a gong while juggling pedestrians with her feet. This should give you an idea. She also won't take no for an answer, whether it's trying to make an enemy into her best friend or trying to get some poor soul watching her act to give her a tip. Clinging onto people, stalking them and popping up out of nowhere, and refusing to listen to anything they say are par for the course. Not that Bu-ling would ever have the patience for golf, even in a metaphor. Also, if there's someone that Bu-ling automatically dislikes, such as someone that she sees picking on someone weaker than they are, she'll let them know and come in to the rescue, using her skills to attract attention to the situation and jump around away from the person chasing her. She's very good at what she does.
With the people that she's annoyed into being her friends, Bu-ling is overly affectionate, glomping them and dragging them around with a smile. They tend to get used to it, although it's still exasperating. She'll also take orders from people she respects. Respect from Bu-ling is earned by a combination of a) looking "cool", b) being nice to her, c) giving her money and d) letting her get away with putting on shows for everyone. If they have good motives, Bu-ling reasons, she'll do what they say. In most social situations, Bu-ling likes to steal all the attention; even if there's no one to busk from, she just does it because she likes it. She can, however, tell when someone else needs the attention, and in situations like listening to important briefings, will restrain herself to playing castle by herself under tables and chairs or eating the nearest abandoned piece of cake.
Though she never mentions it with any sadness out loud, the truth is that she really misses her many younger brothers and sisters. They depend on her support, and she can't imagine how they're doing without her. She has a soft spot for children younger than herself, as they remind her of her siblings. They're about the only people that she will share her hard-earned tips with. Bu-ling dreams of living in happiness with her family again, and is very sensitive on the topic of her mother. Right now, she wants to go home, and isn't sure what she's going to do about that.
Bu-ling doesn't like to fight people that she likes, and would rather try and make friends with people that she isn't scared of. However, she can and will do it if need be, and if somebody hurts an innocent person, she'll playfully teach them a lesson. If they hurt someone she knows, she'll fight them with renewed strength. In her original team, she played a backup role, using her defensive magic and acrobatics, and happily under leadership.
She has yet to react to either side, but will likely be inflamed against the Abonist party, gung-ho to defeat them -- especially when she meets the civilians. However, she'll also be secretly depressed and angry at Clow and Yuuko for taking her away from her friends and the family that depends on her to survive. This wouldn't make her switch sides unless she became good friends with people on the other side and really didn't like anyone on her own side, and even then only if she was fed some good lines about going home sooner.
Background: Once upon a time in modern Tokyo, a Chinese family moved in with six young, loud, hyper children. They were happy for a long time, until Mrs. Hwang died when the kids were young. Her husband went off a few years later to train his martial arts in the mountains. Arranging Bu-ling's future marriage to a friend of the family to exploit a law so that the children wouldn't be taken away by social services, Mr. Hwang left the children alone with Bu-ling, the eldest, in charge. The girl felt no animosity about this, and gladly took on the responsibility for the household, but secretly, she felt lonely and overwhelmed.
She learned all kinds of circus tricks from the performers at Inohara Park and decided to do them herself. By the time she was eight, she had learned to pull a gong out of nowhere, juggle monkeys, walk on a giant beach ball, impersonate a chicken, play the banjo, and do all sorts of wonderful, spontaneous, and sometimes annoying things, all for the sake of money. At her age, she couldn't do anything else for a living, and her siblings depended on her.
She was just settling into her life when, one day, she saw a large crowd at the museum and decided to perform there for better chances of tips. There, she saw an older girl being helplessly bullied by her classmates and stepped up to save her. She distracted one of the girls, but another threatened to make their victim pay for Bu-ling's interjection. Just as she was about to pour hot coffee on the poor girl, an intimidating young woman stopped her. Then the older girl's fangirl came, as well as a pigtailed girl that she had been fighting with. The four girls combined drove off the three bullies and helped their victim up. Just as Bu-ling was about to introduce herself, an earthquake began. The last thing that Bu-ling saw was a red light before waking up from a dream about merging with a monkey made of light. The other girls were long gone. It felt like she'd been shot in the head and it definitely looked like she'd been dragged off somewhere around the museum, but she shrugged it off, more interested in the tips that she lost that day.
Bu-ling noticed an odd mark on her forehead after that, but didn't mention it to anyone. A few days later, she saw a girl on a date with her boyfriend, and bothered them for tips. The girl gave Bu-ling a piece of candy and ran away. Feeling ripped off, she chased her down until she found her alone. It turned out that this was the pigtailed girl from the museum, and something strange had happened to her; as Bu-ling found out, when the other girl was startled or embarrassed, she grew cat ears and a fuzzy black tail. Bu-ling immediately demanded her name (Momomiya Ichigo) and how she got those ears, thinking that she could use this trick in performances. They were interrupted by an alien, part of a force of descendants of the Earth's original inhabitants who, angered at the humans' poor treatment of the environment, wanted to take the planet back for themselves. In an attempt to protect Ichigo, who transformed into a magical catgirl, and her friends, also girls from the museum incident, Bu-ling threw herself in front of an attack, only to have it blocked by a spontaneous boulder. She had become a monkeygirl, and was awakened to her power. Transforming into Mew Pudding, she helped them beat the monster that the alien had summoned.
Bu-ling became a regular member of the magical girl team Tokyo Mew Mew after that. Becoming a waitress at Cafe Mew Mew, the girls' base and day job, she was elated for the 1000-yen-an-hour pay rate and also, to Ichigo's annoyance, the instant crowd made up of customers. Bu-ling bonded closely with her teammates, as well as the cafe's owner, Shirogane Ryou, who had initially caused the incident that turned them into the Mew Mews, and his assistant, Akasaka Keiichiro. Life was going well, besides the alien attacks. One day, Bu-ling's arranged fiance, Long Yuebin, revealed himself to her friends. She was confused about what to do with his sudden arrival, but when he accidentally ruined a memento of Bu-ling's mother, not knowing its importance, Bu-ling decided that she outright hated this man. However, he ended up helping her defeat a monster of the week and left her to do whatever she wanted with her life.
The aliens had been observing their enemies to find a weakness, as both groups began searching for a substance called Mew Aqua (Mu Aqua), which could purify an area and return it to its natural glory. Tokyo Mew Mew had found one such sample already, using it to counteract an alien plan to poison the city's air. Betrayed by the air, the aliens turned to the earth; if they caused a stadium full of people to collapse, and lured the Mews underneath it, they could get at the sample found underground and kill off their enemies at once. Besides, the mew with earth powers was Mew Pudding, and how much harm could a hyperactive little girl do? They kidnapped her and trapped her underneath Tokyo Dome during a concert, leaving her with their youngest member, Taruto. When Bu-ling came to, she decided that Taruto was not a threat, no matter how many times he insisted that he was. Nagging him to become her friend and help her get to the stage upstairs so that she could perform for the concertgoers, she annoyed him enough to buy time for her rescuers. They got her out of the cell and she used the Mew Aqua to support the dome and keep it from falling. Ever since then, the area around Tokyo Dome has been thick, dense forest wrapping around the building.
Bu-ling refused to give up on making Taruto her friend. She tried to get him involved in her act, started calling him "Taru-Taru", and rubbed it in his face whenever he could have attacked her but didn't. He denied it ever more loudly, but he was beginning to soften up for her. In the final battle, Taruto died protecting Mew Pudding from one of his superiors. She cried more over what had happened to him than the ruins that Tokyo was in or the emotional mess that Mew Ichigo had become in the battle. She and her teammates gave all of their life energy to help Ichigo regain her senses and give her the strength to defeat the aliens' leader, Deep Blue, restore him to his original self as Ichigo's caring boyfriend, and bring Tokyo back the way it was.
In short, they had placed their trust well. Ichigo and her boyfriend came back safe and sound, Tokyo was restored with the last Mew Aqua, and everybody came back to life. Bu-ling was sad to see Taruto and his friends go, and kissed him happily. Flustered, he replied that he might come back to Earth to mooch candy off of her, and left. With nothing else to protect, Bu-ling's powers faded... until one day, everyone suddenly felt like returning to the cafe and realized that their powers had returned. Running off to fight new battles, Bu-ling's life felt back in order.
One day, she had come home from a loud, exciting day of work, finally put her siblings to bed, and went to sleep. She woke up the next day in Hope's Peak.
Weapon(s):
-Bu-ling's Mew Pendant isn't a weapon per se, but a henshin item. It fits in the palm of her hand, and is bright yellow, with a bell mark on it. This allows her to transform into Mew Pudding.
-The Purinrings are decorative hoops that interlock with one another and can be held in Mew Pudding's hands. The bigger, yellow one is oddly shaped, with a heart symbol on it, and is a little bigger than a large loaf of bread; the smaller, orange one is plain and the size of a baguette. Only Mew Pudding can summon them, and they are used in "Reborn Purinring Inferno", disappearing right after she doesn't need them.
Abilities:
-Transformation to monkeygirl and Mew Pudding. (Bu-ling)
-Unconscious creation of boulders. These block whatever attack she has thrown herself in front of; however, it can only happen when she triggers the monkeygirl transformation, not after. (Monkeygirl Bu-ling)
-Reborn Purinring Inferno. An attack that cuts through the earth and creates a large blob of a pudding-like substance, trapping an enemy. It can only be cast in a straight line and can be dodged. If an enemy is made of two parts, such as possession, this can separate them in combination with another Mew Mew attack or something similar, but it's not a sure thing. (Mew Pudding)
-Well-trained in her father's martial arts. (All)
-Can speak with monkeys. (All)
-Talented acrobat and circus trick performer. (All)
Affiliation: Most likely Centinon.
Would you be opposed to Ansem turning your character into a Heartless?: No.
Would you be opposed to your character being caught in recruitment raids?: If they can handle her annoying them to death! Haha, no, I would not.
RP sample:
A very small, very bouncy and very... orange girl waved at passersby. This did not last long, as they all seemed to walk by without noticing her. There were other entertainers in the street, and she didn't seem to be anything special. The girl frowned. She would fix that. Taking a deep breath, the small girl scrambled to the top of a lightpost and opened her arms wide.
"COME ONE, COME ALL!" Heads were turning up now. "Come see Bu-ling's amazing show! It'll be great nano da!" Uh-oh, a few people were leaving. She tilted downward, used her feet to swing down, and landed perfectly on the head of a would-be deserter. "Come on! Don't you want to see it nano da? Look what Bu-ling can do!" She bounced on a few more heads and ended in a handstand on a mailbox. "And that's not all! Bu-ling can swallow swords, too! Does anybody here have a sword?" Reveling in their attention, she skipped around the crowd, gathering tips where she could find them.
Journal/Letter sample:
Bu-ling likes it a lot here nano da! It's pretty and there's a whole bunch of people to perform for nano da! Bu-ling wonders how much they give in tips. It better be a lot! Bu-ling doesn't even have a house around here. Where can she stay... Bu-ling saw a big shiny hotel today. It looked as big as Minto-oneechan's mansion nano da! But Bu-ling doesn't think she can make enough tips for that.
There's bad guys here too. Bu-ling hasn't seen them, though. Or maybe Bu-ling just can't tell either way. Maybe they look different! Like Taru-Taru and his friends had funny ears. Bu-ling wonders if she can check. Maybe somebody around here knows! But what if Bu-ling asks a bad guy by mistake because she doesn't know what they look like?
...Bu-ling will think about that later! Customer!
