Description
Reference sheet for my entry inAudition Comic Page 01
Naomi Reference Sheet
Name: Amber Riley/Tricha
Age: 14
Height: 5’3”
Background: One day, when Amber was eleven years old, she was with her mother at the mall when she was approached by a man who said he was a talent scout. Upon calling the telephone number on the card the man gave her, Amber discovered that he was not, in fact, asking her to become a model or an actor but a member of a somewhat secret agency that trains magical girls.
Her parents are very supportive of her chosen occupation, but as they are not allowed specific details on what she actually does, they seem to think that her job is similar to that of a pageant girl. Amber often fights alongside her best friend and fellow magical girl, Naomi, whom she met through the agency.
Personality: Amber’s heart is in the right place, but she’s got a lot to learn. Like many teenagers, she has trouble putting others before herself. She tends to speak before she thinks and likes to act as though she knows what is happening, even when she has no idea what is going on. She does not like being looked down on, and takes the fact that she is one of the youngest competitors in this competition as a source of pride.
Transformation: She can transform instantaneously and at will. When she transforms, the only actual change in her appearance is her eyes, but, like many other magical girls, her transformation magic renders her unrecognizable to those who know her. She is not comfortable being in her civilian form around anyone she doesn’t know, i.e. anyone else in this competition. Charmed hair accessories allow her hair to appear short even when she has grown it very long for battle.
Powers/Attacks: Tricha’s power is prehensile hair. Her fighting style is strictly physical as her powers only allow her to grow and control her hair. She can use her hair in a number of ways, and can use it to pierce, smash or strangle her opponent. The hair she fights with must be grown before she goes into battle as it takes much concentration for her to do so.
EDIT 4/17/13: Headless Mode
Tricha cannot control any hair that has been cut from her head unless she is in her "headless" mode. In that mode, she can control any section of her hair that she is aware of, even if it is not attached to her. The trade-off is that she cannot move her body when her head is detached, leaving it vulnerable. She has not told anyone about her "headless" mode besides Naomi and her trainers and is in constant fear that people will find out about it and her public image will be ruined.
---------------------------------------------
The due date is in less than ten hours and I'm not done with the comic yet. I am cutting this so close ugggh!

I would love to have control over my hair, it's so stubborn and won't let me tame it. It goes wild and often tries to make me look crazy. I think it's trying to rebel against me.
Tricha will be facing Chise soon, so I need some extra info~ I would like to know more about Naomi, she would make the perfect sidekick for the story. So, what are her powers? personality? anything you would like me to despict about her?

Sorry I didn't reply earlier, I didn't have access to my computer and it's hard to type large amounts on my phone.
I don't have Naomi fully designed yet but I am going to try to have her design sheet done by tomorrow. Here is a little bit about her: At 5'6", Naomi is taller and skinnier than Amber. She has medium length hair, which she has straightened and dyed white-blond. Amber and Naomi first met three years ago when they first became magical girls. Because the two get into fights often, people sometimes assume that they do not get along, but they are actually very close. Amber is the smarter of the two, though that's not saying much. Naomi tends to follow what Amber says rather than act on her own.
If Chise were to choose a sidekick, who might she choose?

It can either be Momoka or the moggus or anyone you may decide. Depends if you are going to take the story from what I established later in my timeline. You are free to not pick any of the established characters.
Momoka is often overly confident and plain evil, if she is going to appear in the tournament, she would probably wreck stuff. Her relationship with Chise is more of a mentor/caretaker. In case they become a fighting pair, it's more likely for Chise to act like the sidekick and follow her directions. She is more interested in controlling humanity rather than destroying it. She is a demon.
In the case for moggus, they are from a different dimension, they are usually violent pack beasts. They are being led by an even bigger monster from the other side which is related to Chise... in some way. They are somewhat inteligent and understand a lot of things, they aren't that bright. Only a few speak human language.

Here are a couple of reference drawings of Naomi in case you need them: [link]
I am planning to have Chise use a moggu as her sidekick and toying with the idea of her sneaking in three.

I can't believe I've never commented on this yet, Tricha is awesome!
I love her magical girl outfit, it's so pretty!
I wish I could have you as my opponent, Tricha and SilverSnow would be great, they would either get along great or hate each other.
Her powers are great too, really original.

Thank you, you're too kind.
Tricha and SilverSnow together would be great. Hmm, I think maybe they would like each other at first, but gradually come to hate each other. To be honest, I'm still kind of trying to figure out my character.

You’re welcome
That sounds about right.
BTW when it comes to getting to know your character something that might by fun to try is fill out a profile in first-person, so for example:
Instead of writing:
Age: 23
You write something like:
Age: Oh dear honey, that’s no question to ask a lady, but if you must know I’m 23.
Or perhaps:
Age:23, yes really! I can't help having a baby-face okay!
It might help to get a bit of a feel of what your character acts like.

Thank you!
Yeah, I never entered one of these before because I thought I didn't have to time, but I figure you have time for what you make time for.
Good luck on your comic!

Good way to look at it. I probably would have the time if I didn't mix up my dates. Up until last night I thought it was due on Thursday. XD
