Riku Ichiyuma

Look how the streets turn cold when I walk it It's my rules, no man can stop it I throw a kick so quick that'll leave you in the gutter ☆ Riku Ichiyuma ☆ SIXTEEN · female · EUrOPEAN/JAPANESE · ACTOR General: As someone planning to spend much of her time on stage, on screen and within the eyes of thousands, Riku prides herself on good looks and approachability. Maintaining her visage as well as her projected persona seems to come naturally! Luckily, Riku's figure does not reflect her diet, her weight needing little to no tend - she has found that no matter the amount and type of food she shoves into her gullet, there is neither an end nor a consequence. Ignoring the warnings of a concerned mother reminding her that her metabolism may slow down and the food would catch up, Riku takes advantage and gorges her gluttony. When it comes to Riku, what you see is what you get! She does not bother hiding parts of herself, physically or emotionally; she subconsciously lays it all right out for her peers to marvel or judge. Outwardly, she looks like a funloving, exuberant teen... and inwardly, that's exactly what she is! There is a fire in her eyes and a skip in her step that would take an army to dilute. Resembling her mother far more than her father, Riku possesses some rather European features that counter her Asian ones. From her mother she has thick, shaggy blong hair and brilliant green eyes, on top of considerably fair skin. From her father she hones a narrow face and jaw, round ears and sharp features. Long, spidery fingers and webbed toes are her own! Hair: A mess of creamy blonde layers cascade down and around Riku's shoulders and back. Evidently no level of trim smooths it out, burdened by ceaselessly less than straight hair. Fortunately she appreciates the look, going as far to let her fringe take over her forehead and sweep through her eyes simply because it looks cute. Eyes: Warm, open eyes reveal brilliant hazel-green orbs under thick, black eyelashes. Shapely sharp eyes and prominent lashes leave her stares on the wild and provocative side; her intensity is vivid within these windows to her soul. Face: A pretty, narrow heart-shaped face sits on top of a slender neck, accentuated by a soft jawline and round ears under all that blonde hair. Riku's unblemished complexion and expressions are similarly soft and smooth, oscillating between goofy and cool seamlessly. Riku's resting expression exudes curious content, or content curiosity. Body: Standing in at roughly 5'6" and weighing a little under 140lbs, Riku boasts a slimthick figure blooming identical to her mother's. Proportionately and symmetrically sound, all limbs and the like seem to be well within par. Although she is supple, she is not exactly outstanding by any means. Clothing: When not donned in the garb of Fukui Academy, Riku prefers comfort and fashion, especially when they go hand in hand! Truthfully, her wardrobe stretches beyond any one 'genre' of aesthetic, but there are more tank tops and sweaters than anything. However, there is an obvious favor in cold colors.  appearance General: Loud, rambunctious and spontaneous! Riku is the epitome of a wild and friendly disposition, always down for adventure and for making new friends. Without conscious effort she is gracefully sincere in the way that she acts and carries herself. Of huge appetite in both mind and body, not only does Riky shoot for the stars, craving accomplishment on top of accomplishment, she also eats her weight in delicious indulgences. Seemingly never satisfied, Riku seeks out seconds and thirds as often as she grasps each new passing opportunity.  Admittedly, Riku can sometimes come off as a little intense or even obnoxious, but there is a collected side of her that many fail to see. For good reason, of course. Her cool, laidback tendencies are often lost awash in her bubbly demeanor. Just because her head is in the clouds doesn't mean she is not also grounded and pragmatic. Radiating a consistently welcoming and leisure aura, Riku simply looks the part that she plays offstage. In this way it's almost strange to watch her act out dramatic or forlorn characters because it is so polar to the person she truly is. It just doesn't look right! Despite immersing herself in all kinds of roles, Riku always bounces back effortlessly. Things Riku Enjoys Evenings! Reality TV! Beach days! Meeting new people! Greasy foods! Walks in the woods! Peaches! Bugs! Blankets! Video games! Rehearsals! Rock music! Things Riku Hates Sushi! Planes! Feeling anxious! Stage freight! Bullying! Exclusion! Business formality! Deadlines! Authority! Rude comments! Belligerence! Liars! Riku's Habits Chug! Chug! Before every audition, rehearsal or show, Riku chugs a can of her favorite energy drink. Whether this is to amp herself up or for good luck is unclear. Diligent note taking! Reminders, dates, something someone said, things to forget and things to research, the list goes on. For anything big or small, Riku documents much of her life. Distractions! Though she does not mean to, Riku often gets lost in her surroundings, or even becomes engrossed in her phone. Usually when she is disinterested! Would you do it for a scooby snack? Sometimes when she cannot find muse, she rewards herself for small victories by buying new treats to try. Tap. Tap. Tap. Despite being normally patient and attentive, when Riku's mind wanders or she is idle she can be heard tapping her foot or fingers against hard surfaces. Riku's Positive Traits Outgoing! Ambitious! Friendly! Casually affectionate! Independent! Energetic! Articulate! Charismatic! Easy to talk to! Generous! Sympathetic! Selfless! Riku's Negative Traits Ostentatious! Occasionally ignorant! Reckless! Absentminded! Impulsive! Sarcastic! Insatiable! Irrational! Hurried! Aggressive! Rowdy! Always hungry! Stubborn! Intense!  Tertiary Born August 4th, Leo Sun, Pisces Moon, Aries Rising, Monkey Eastern, ENFP-A Burdened by a relentless hunger, Riku always has snacks onhand. Due to the frequency of being asked to share, she makes sure to always carry enough for everyone! Acting encompasses many talents and Riku is keen to this. She is proficient in using her voice (singing, projection, harmonizing), getting better at dance and choreography, and interested in costume design! Keeping herself tidy is not the end of her presentation. Clutter and messes overwhelm Riku, so she's a bit of a neatfreak! Because her parents are both bilingual, Riku (and her brother, Tou) were both raised to speak Japanese and English fluently! personality History: An audition granting her entrance to Fukui Academy was a first of many accomplishments which her parents hadn't anticipated. Given their daughter's irresponsible nature, they were pleasantly surprised to discover equal determination. The Ichiyuma family is not a dysfunctional one by any means; they are compassionate and genuine with each other, and love each other dotingly. Yet there seems to be a strange dynamic; partial to business, Hofuku is often away on rounds to the states. Melanie, being from the states herself, often elects to accompany him - when she does not, she herself is working as a daycare teacher. It leaves little time to spend with Riku and Tou, but the two do well to take care of themselves with the allowances left behind. Always regarded as the slacker of the family, Riku enrolled to Fukui completely on a whim and a prayer. As a child, being an actress among the stars seemed like a distant pipe dream. Even her parents had discouraged the passion, suggesting something more solid and steady. An acceptance letter from Fukui was a jumpstart to a career she had long since thought to be impossible. Riku may not be 'popular' by any means, but she sure does know a lot of people and get along with a good majority of the facilitating cliques! So far her time in Fukui Academy has been spent doing what she does best; goofing around and making friends! Because her dreams to be a star are so vivid and important to her, she still works surprisingly diligently on her school work on top of the fun.  Family/Relatives Hofuku Ichiyuma, Father, 45 | A large and goofy yet capricious man, Hofuku is not always the favorite parent. Riku finds him to be a bit of a prig, but Hofuku sincerely only wants the best for his family. Even if he can come off a little strict...

• Melanie Ichiyuma (formerly Argyll), Mother, 36 | A petite and warm woman, Melanie is often the favorite parent. Riku finds her to be a bit of a pushover, but Melanie is only laidback and gentler in her approach to parenting. Even if she is a softie...
• Tou Ichiyuma, Little Brother, 10 | A little and strangely wise boy, if not for his size and obvious physical underdevelopment, strangers might confuse him as the older sibling. Riku finds him to be a bit of a pompous brat, but Tou is really only a lot like his mother. Quiet and caring.
