Re: .hack-esque Chat-Based Game Interest Check
Took me a while, but here's Izumi, my character.

Player: SableKitsune (Alice Parker)
Alice is a shy, withdrawn biochem major at Cornell University. Having been shy and withdrawn for 20 of her 26 years, Alice got used to going unnoticed, even enjoying being ignored at times. Though not poor, Alice's family was far from wealthy, and it was only due to her winning a scholarship that she was able to get into Cornell. However, a few months ago, Alice found out that her eccentric and reclusive uncle had passed away and named her as his sole heir. It turned out that crazy uncle Earl was actually a stock market savant and had amassed a massive collection of stocks that were worth billions.
Though she was now a billionaire, Alice didn't want others to know about her new fortune and continued her life mostly as normal, though she did get a number of big ticket items for herself, including moving to a penthouse condo and, of course, the game she had heard so much about, but never had the money to play. Buying a premium membership, she toyed around with some of the exclusive options before settling on a rather normal character. Combining her interest in chemistry and biology with her desire to be more outgoing, she made Izumi Takenaka, an eccentric wandering alchemist.
Before her windfall, Alice's only real passions included her studies and swimming. If she wasn't so withdrawn, she probably could have been a professional swimmer.
Character: Izumi Takenaka
Izumi is a busty, somewhat crazy alchemist. Basically, she's everything Alice wishes she was herself. She wears an outfit that mirrors her eccentricity, a mix of high-class fashion, road-ready gear and bits that just don't make sense.
Style:
Alice didn't care much for numbers when she made Izumi, instead going with what she'd want herself to be like. She does think unconventionally, however, and often comes up with bizarre strategies that may or may not work.
