Description

:iconpkmnskies: second character~ Her app picture turned out so very small hmm

Close up of the App picture: sta.sh/0n4tu3gfvi2
Overall View on the clothes/her body: sta.sh/01fjc2y0dy3q (these also have the more correct proportions for her. No idea what happened on the App art)
The early concept sketches of her "sword mode" and some not so correct view on how her body splits (needs an update but for the time being hopefully does its job): sta.sh/01d28wajx4zf

Many a thanks for the Skies people giving me some clothes suggestion and for good friend :iconfluffyz: for helping me with more clothes suggestions and the finishing touches~

She is based off of a Side Sword/Spada da Lato in comparison to the regular Honedge line evos. Her father was a Rapier :'D. Really wanted to give them some more variation after having seen other artists designing Honedge and Co. as different type of swords.

Ability: No Guard
Moveset:
Swords Dance - Dances with herself (her two sword bodies moving around each other in some complicated fashion), used for fun rather than fighting
Shadow Sneak - Extends her shadow to usually poke people from behind and get a reaction. More often used out of lazyness to grab the TV remote. Sometimes used on stage
Slash - A single clean cut, she commonly uses one of her sword bodies while the other holds it for more stability/ accuracy. Cuts clothes, ropes or uses it for gardening
Flash Cannon - Either redirects light with her sword bodies or stands in light to charge for a more elaborate light show (she uses a gem located on her show garb for this)

Nature: Impish
Personality:
Curious and could come off as prying, but backs down if told. Spirited attitude. Cheeky and possessor of a somewhat flirty/dirty humor (reserved for people she knows). Slight prankster and can take a joke. Brave, not afraid to try out new things and can keep her calm during hectic situations. Prefers having a plan and scheduling things (though with leeway time for unforseen stuff), if she knows what she gets into she's more spontaneous. Feels uneasy living in a place for too long (with rare exeptions) and likes to change things in a while (something like every two/three years), activities, living places, wardrobe etc. (she IS able to have favourites). Swears a lot (not around children/on stage). Stage persona is an over-the-top attention seeking poet of sorts (generally likes being over-the-top for humor). Excellent actor and splendid liar (doesn't lie about factual things).

A nitpick and accurate worker, can admit faults and encourages people to point things out to her. Able to have her lazy moments, she works well under pressure. Confident in solving logistic problems (though not always successfull). When nervous she fiddles around with her hands, when deep in thought, usually plays around with a coin and/or walks around. Insecure about decisions relating to people (say, siding with someone in an argument). Might overthink or interpret too much into the personal troubles of others. Prefers keeping to herself when developing new stuff for her shows, but is very open in explaining certain things to those interested.

Social but likes to have time for herself. Patient beyond reason but struggles with anger issues that can surface when certain topics get mentioned. Can be quite nasty when angry, she will try to catch herself and simply leave. Helpful but calls in favours (lenient about that, though). Feels uncomfortable telling people about herself (emotional/ history) and prone to bait and mock people for trying to comfort her (counts for everyone). Wary about what people tell about themselves, she too does not trust people much when they offer to help her with things she is responsible for (she'd not be mean but calmly explain that "no, thanks"). Feels incredible uneasy around children (up to 13/14), young parents and only-parents/people raised by them.

Likes: Sweet&Sour foods/flavours; Detective stories; Blue, red and light brownish colors; Electronica and Jazz music; Fruit juice, hot cocoa, lemon tea; Winter season; Large stages + crowds; Hats, Suits, longer and pattern rich clothes; History; Rain; Exploring her surroundings and old buildings (alone or with others), Libraries; Curvy line + dot patterns; Learning about unusual jobs/hobbies
Dislikes: Dry foods; Alcohol, coffee; Talking about the last fifteen years; Spring and summer season; Greyscale things; Housework (though she puts an effort at keeping her equipment clean); Short and worn clothes; Psychic types and moves creep her out; Keeping secrets for others, letting people know how she feels (good at concealing such); Puns, please don't (with exeptions); Being touched or touching others unless it's on stage or for emergencies/ family (or her being furious); Mondays
Hobbies: Dancing (Tap dance, break dance, standard dances); Sewing and Knitting; Hiking; Tinkering (also taking things apart and back together), Playing piano; Video Games (competitive, but is a good Loser/Winner)

History:
Third daughter to a Gigalith mother and Aegishlash father among two brothers and one sister, all of the Roggenrola line. A bit on the shy side with great enthusiasm and endless curiosity. Entering school she edged on with teachers for her "weird questions", giving her a feel of not being welcome much outside of friends or family. Inspired by her father to tinker with various gadgets, she (age 10) dreamt of joining the stage magician line of business after attending a show and the performer being so kind of to explain some of their tricks. The complains of teachers reached their peak when she was twelve, as well as some friends having shown their most ugly side. She switched school not shortly after, solving a good bunch of problems but made her more wary around 'friends' with only a Ninjask and Crustle remaining at her side.

The increasing tension between her younger brother and mother turned her last save haven, family into yet another negative thing (age 16). She moved out first from the children, during her (successfull) apprenticeship with a bookbinder (age 17 to 20) and together with the Ninjask. Alongside working for various book stores, she and the Ninjask sat together, aiming to make the stage magician dream a proper, big, thing (age 20). Opting for a cheeky/blunt stage persona, she later would grow into the role, becoming more comfortable around people again. She married the Crustle with twenty-two and roughly a year later they bought a house and had a daughter.

Rika didn't like the new and strange, nearly creepy attention she got from mostly neighbors and her parents-in-law. And when the stage magician job started to pick up in popularity, she would spend most of her free time working on new tricks at the workplace she shared with the Ninjask. To keep herself sane and often enough, until deep into the night. In the year her father died (age 28), her husband got offered a promising job as lead writer in a neighboring city, which they soon moved to. They divorced only a year later after lengthy conversations over the matter and both decided this was for the best. The daughter stayed with the ex, as Rika couldn't bear seeing her as devastated again as the last time they moved. Rika never left their life however, visting them frequently and being on excellent terms with the two, maybe even better than before.

She moved at least three times in the coming years and when her last employer fired her for 'staff restructuring' reasons she took it as a hint to pack her things and move on. Again. Renting a house at the new place, Springleaf and mailing her family the new adress, she surely didn't expect her mother to just up and go, moving in first (Rika teased her to do so actually). As she had to settle things back at the old place first, she was quite glad to hear her mother being there, sent some of her belongings and now, a few months later, herself. Curious as to how long it will take this time, until things turn sour again.

Extras:
- Doesn't talk about having a kid or even an Ex
- Lacks a breathing motion and clearly visible mouth (able to eat and drink. Because she can. Somehow.)
- Cannot pass through walls. Naturally levitates and can up to a metre away from solid surfaces. Can attach to walls but not fly over holes. Able to split her body in two
- Makes all of her arms herself (the ones she got as a "rite of passage" gift are being used as actual scarves)
- Allergic to pollen, slightly shortsighted and needs reading glasses
- Doesn't plan to evolve as she would like to keep the depth perception, thank you
- Uses her weapon sheaths as sleeping bags (in this case, she was not born with them, they were specifially made for her)
- Her blades got pretty dull over the years but has no intention of changing that. The Slash move suffered a bit from that but still gets the job done
- The "child being off type from the mother" is a thing running in the family. Having a Gigalith mother and Dwebble child
- Commonly uses "folk" instead of "people". Uses "dude" or "mate" irrelevant of the gender of the person she refers to
- For humor and if the situation is right, likes saying sound effects out loud
- Cannot sap people's life force, unlike the regular Honedge/Doublade/Aegislash
