SMV Character Reference - OLD VERSION

Description

I'm working on joining the :iconsmvillage: team!

</b>EDIT</b>: I have a new character reference and this one will be moved to scraps soon. Please check out the new one here: SMV Reference - Sailor Alpheratz by Cionie

Senshi Name: Sailor Alpheratz

Civilian Name:
Peggy Marinos

Level:
Basic

Species or Ethnicity (if human):
Caucasian (British)

Gender:
Female

Birthday:
November 5th (Remember, remember...)

Age:
21

Height:
5’ 5”

Special abilities:
Peggy is an expert programmer and hacker in “real life” (ie: not as a senshi). She is also incredibly good at fencing due to just over a decade of experience in the sport. I’m putting fencing in as a “special ability” to prove that she is highly capable in or out of senshi fuku.

Backstory:

Ah, where do we start? The Andromeda Galaxy Team is not the oldest group of senshi warriors, though they have been around for long before the creation of Earth’s Moon, or even the Millennium Kingdom for that matter. With each new generation, another team of senshi are born across the cosmos to one day take their place among the stars and protect the universal idea of justice in the galaxy. The Millennium Kingdom is only one such place out of thousands, as this village proves, that gives birth to senshi warriors.

For this generation of Andromeda Galaxy senshi, the Spirit of Andromeda sped, far flung across the stars, and decided to settle on the planet Earth this time. Unnoticed, the four energies of each major star in the Andromeda Galaxy’s Kingdom traveled through the Earth’s atmosphere, looking for their fated destinations.


After much searching, the blue and yellow light of Alpheratz’s energy signature finally melded itself into the small, yet bold life force of little Miss Peggy Marinos, newborn to Sheryl and Adam Marinos, in Liverpool, England.


It wasn’t until university that her latent destiny became known, though even before that Peggy had proven the right soul for Alpheratz to choose. She was a brazen girl, though her mother would call it insolence, with an appreciation for the complexities of life that many of her peers seemed to have trouble relating to.


By the time she hit the tumultuous phase of high school, Peggy had developed a strong desire for justice, particularly in regards to her own, and appeared to rebel against everything: her teachers, peers, government… her mother and father. She was young, prideful and had half-cultivated ideas that she wished to express in order to define her world. When the current processes and rules of the real world failed her, she made up her own.


When the promise of university, and academic freedom (or more of it, anyway), finally was in sight something drastic happened. During high school, she and her mother had been in a devastating car accident that left Peggy with a broken femur and her mother in a coma. Her father insisted they keep her mother on life support in the hopes that she would “come back to them” and, nearly two long and difficult years later, Sheryl Marinos came out of the coma. At first, Peggy was sincerely happy with the news, if very shocked, though that happiness soon turned to regret and frustration at the cowardice of her father’s previous choices. Her mother had severe brain damage and, though conscious and alive, was no more than a husk of a woman. Still, her father spent their savings for medical help to keep his wife alive.

Peggy had to postpone her college career due to lack of financial support. After a year and a half of legitimate work, and much under-the-table programming work, she was able to pay her own way into university. Though, after what she had learned about the opportunities that a “career” in hacking (and sometimes even
cracking) could get her, the only reason she still decided on university was because it was the only choice that she wouldn’t have felt guilty about leaving her father’s side for. She desperately needed to separate herself from the hopelessness that permeated her parents’ house and university was her only legitimate means of escape. Thus, she chose to attend school in America, New York City, and doesn’t go home unless it is required of her. She and her dad still talk, sometimes, though isn’t often.

She became displaced, socially, though still a bold declarer of “truth” and “justice”. She threw herself into computer coding, which satisfied her mentally, and fencing, which satisfied her physically. Then, almost out of nowhere, Sailor Andromeda and Almach (they would meet Mirach later) showed up on campus, appearing to battle this strange being of energy that had apparently been feeding on the life-force of the people in the New York City metro area. A transformation pen appeared in Peggy’s hand and she acted on instinct, not stopping to consider the consequences of her choice. At this point, if she was going to die then she was damn sure it would be while doing something to justify her life up to that point.


The battle was finished with the strike of her Chain Lightning attack and Sailor Andromeda, ever the trusting and optimistic soul, welcomed Peggy into the team with no questions asked. As far as Andromeda saw it, Peggy had been picked to be Sailor Alpheratz for a reason, and that was good enough for her.


Personality:
Peggy is very competitive and prideful. While this has helped her excel with sports and in her online activities, she does come off as being egotistical.


She is an intelligent and aware individual, and her individualism is very important to her. She has adopted a sort of Machiavellian attitude towards problem solving and has been labeled selfish at times, despite her main goals being more for the benefit of others than for herself. It’s really just the way that she goes about achieving her goals that people tend to have issues with.


Ironically enough, Peggy holds sincerity of self above all other personality qualities when judging others, despite having numerous alternate identities and ulterior motives for her own online activities. She is extremely loyal to those who have gained her trust and always acts towards what she would believe to be the best solution for everyone. This doesn’t mean, of course, that she
does always know what’s best, but she is learning and refuses to be made a fool of.

Peggy has everyone’s best interests at heart, she
really does, but has a very difficult time showing compassion when she is expressing her ideas. She is honest about her opinions almost to a fault, and honesty without compassion is often construed as cruelty. This has made it difficult for her to retain friends offline and the Andromeda Galaxy Team is really the closest to “friends” that she has.

Henshin Item and Description: Transformation pen, pictured above


Henshin Phrase:
“Alpheratz, Bringer of Lightning, Power Up!”

Henshin Description:
A crack of thunder booms and she appears to be struck by lightning. In her hand, electricity forms into a crackling blue sabre that she swishes it in a wide arc around her, leaving a translucent, electric blue aurora residue. The borealis “ribbons” tighten around her body as the sabre passes, fading into her costume. Her final pose is the readying stance a fencer would take before a duel, a confident smirk on her face.

Weapon and Description:
The “Horn of Pegasus” is a sabre that appears to be made out of a polarized blue crystal, allowing Alpheratz to channel lightning through it.


Attack Names and Descriptions:
Chain Lightning: [shown above] This is Sailor Alpheratz’s primary attack. She charges her sabre with electricity and then releases it in a storm of concentrated lightning that has the ability to jump from target to target.

Other Information:
Other than her sabre and transformation pen, Alpheratz wears a blue crystal visor that gives her a heads-up display of the electromagnetic spectrum, including what would normally be non-visual. This allows her to track all kinds of data, from life signs to radio waves.

Sailor Alpheratz's Chain Lightning - Second Round by Cionie  

Night 1: Like Two Beers in a Bar - Chapter 1It had been a long day- no, screw that, it had been a long fucking week for Peggy Marinos. Not only had the end-of-semester exams earlier in the week left her utterly exhausted but then Andrea had to show up at the most inopportune times to drag her off on inter-galactic adventures to fight off various discoveries of Dark Form activity. Multiple times! On top of it all there had been rumor of the NSA and FBI discovering the base of one of Peggy’s less-than-legal online associates, prompting a complete re-boot of her own systems so she couldn’t be dragged into anything on the grounds of “known accomplices”. Even though she actually didn’t have anything to do with whatever projects the person had been working on at the time, everything had to be wiped. Just in case.
In short, Peggy had had a long fucking week.
She probably should have just called it an early night and cut her losses but something about burying herself in a cold bottle of
