AND DELVE DEEPER INTO ME
but you still know so little.

Fighting Kith: She is a Fighter, she uses Demon energy to try and gain an upper hand in battle.
Energy: She uses a Demon energy called Rainbow energy. It is in no way stronger than any normal energy, but it is a mark in her lineage that proves she is one of the chosen members of her family (See more in her history.)
Special Powers/Abilities:She has a few methods of fighting, most of these she uses by Manipulating a special brand of demon energy she has that she simply calls Rainbow Energy. These Include her Rainbow Shards, which are sharp jagged rock shards charged with her demon energy, her rainbow barrier, a defense mechanism, and Rainbow Manipulation, which allows her to imitate someone's weapon by making it out of her energy. She also uses a method called a Fox-screech, where she stays quiet until she builds up enough energy to let out a screech that will deafen the enemy for several minutes. She use to use eyesight as an advantage until she lost sight in one of them.

Eyes: dark-purple
Hair: Plum Purple
Height: "5.6"
Build: 130IBS
Presence: Shea, despite being a Princess while living in Demon World, still has a very rude presence about her. She's never been the princessly type, and many wonder why she was born with the energy mark of one. She tends to have that "I really don't like you, get away from me." kind of thing going on until you get to know her.

She often dresses in cool colors, because hot colors drive her insane since she can only see through her one eye, she'd much rather wear something that won't bug her. Though she wouldn't consider herself beautiful, like Princesses are supposed to be, she is considered pretty, which is a step father than she gives herself (Which is about average in terms of looks) She has a scar running across her eye from a javelin accident at her human middle school, and her eye with that scar is dull. The doctors told her mother she wouldn't be able to see out of it again, so her sight has been greatly diminished.

and discover what makes them who they are.

Father: In her demon life, her father is King of the Fox Demon Kingdom, Hiroshoto Yuakamo (Deceased). in her human life, her father is Hukato Saliano (Deceased)
Mother: Her mother in her demon life was Queen Ira Yuakamo of the Eagle Kingdom, married to Hiroshoto in order to co-exsist the two kingdoms peacefully (Deceased). In her Human life, her mother is Kakito Saliano.
Other: Toko and Zella Yuakamo, presumed to have escaped the destruction of their kingdom, it is unknown where the two are, and in which world, though both are thought to be in the Demon world. In her human life, she has an "older" brother named Bruno, and a little sister named Pachii.
Origin: Demon World, from the Fox Kingdom.
History: Shea was born to Queen Ira and King Hiroshoto, who had married in order to keep peace between the two races of demons, the Fox and the Eagle races. Though, everyone had anticipated a demon of one race, like Shea's brother and sister before her, everyone was shocked when they ended up with a mixed breed. Half Eagle Demon, half Fox Demon. Mixed breeds were hated among most demon races, because of their mutt blood, but a twist brought the kingdom to respect the young princess. In the Fox Kingdom, a mark of the next prince or princess was determined by the child's energy. If they had what was called Rainbow energy, they were next in line to the Throne.

Shea had this energy, and the Kingdom came to respect her as the next Princess. Though, both her siblings, Zella and Toko, were jealous of her. They had to wonder why a mixed demon could get bestowed such a high honor from birth when they were the full demons, and the older ones.

Though, Shea very much wished one of them would have had the mark instead of her. She was never able to have any fun, and she wasn't allowed to learn how to fight like her brother or her sister, and she was subjected to princess training, which was basically learning how to sit on a throne and eat the right way, and more lady-like things.

Though, Shea liked to teach herself to fight, and she ended creating quite a few moves for herself in secret. So for that, she maintained a rather cheerful life, until the night her Kingdom was destroyed. An army of another Kingdom, an Army that far outnumbered theirs, waged an attack that killed most of the eagle demon population, half of the fox demons, and her mother and father. During the fight, her father had set an enchantment for her, and the army realized the princess had disappeared. What her father had done was sent her to human world to possess an unborn human child (much like Kurama had done in the actual series) in a last ditch effort to save her. The remaining Eagle and Fox demons formed a resistance village under the direction of the ex-kingdom advisors, Sprite and Temmaro, two thunder demons who continue to search for the princess upon realizing she hadn't died.

So, Shea was born as Shila Saliano to Human parents. But, instantly, her human father had accused her mother of cheating on him, because her special energy had manipulated the babies features to be that of her own. She lived a fairly normal life, finding her human brother and sister to be much nicer to her demon ones. Though, her father was quite abusive to everyone in the house, he managed to kill himself getting caught in a barfire, which seemed to be a relief for the whole family.

When she was starting out in middle school, she had joined track and field. She worked on her running, but it wasn't until she tried field that she had gotten injured. One of her partners had seen a rat on the field while preparing to throw the javelin, and becoming startled, she knocked herself off balance and the sharp part of her tool scratched down Shea's face, deeply against her eye. She was admitted to the hospital, where her mother was told they could not save her eyesight in that eye.

This was a crushing blow to Shea, who was fully aware of her life as a demon, and aware she was a mixed breed. Losing sight in one eye meant her eagle demon heritage meant even less now. When she turned 14, she began being able to shift into her demon form at her own free will, and she very much enjoyed regaining this ability.

She began realizing she was being watched, and turned to the spirit world, who was on good terms with her Kingdom, for help. they placed her on the spirit detective team not only for the abilities she proved to have, but for her own protection as well, for the people watching her, were really demons from the enemy kingdom's army, the same that destroyed her kingdom 15 years beforehand.

STILL DO NOT JUDGE
for you will never walk a life in their shoes.

Fears: Large Dogs, Javelins, Really large, muscular men, being scorned, Clowns...no really, Clowns... Thunder and Lightning, Fire.
Strength: Strong-willed, Brave, Uses her surroundings to her advantage.
Weakness: Prideful, Overly-Sarcastic at times, hard to get close to.
Mental Stability: Sane
General Persona: Shea is a very annoyed individual, to say the least. There are many people, places, and things that will annoy her, just because they are alive or in existence. She doesn't tolerate kids or whining very well, but she will warm up to them if she's around them long enough...though that's not to say she'll find them any less annoying, she just won't say anything about it.

She can be rude, sarcastic, and annoyingly witty when she wants to be, and this is one of her biggest faults. Her prideful ways often prevent her from asking for help, and it was hard enough for her to dare to ask Spirit World when she needed it.

Though, there are also some good assets to Shea as well. Once you get to know her, she is softer on you, and she tends to like you whether she will admit it or not. Once you are under Shea's wing, you are basically under her care and protection, though no one is sure where she gained this attitude from. She is also very brave and strong willed, and won't back down from a challenge if she can help it.

Sample:
Somehow, Topaz always was left to wonder why she found herself in the shopping district every time she was out. She never really enjoyed shopping too much, but she was always there. It somewhat bothered her, like she knew she wanted to go other places sometimes. Oh well… she sighed and placed her hands into her pockets. It was still light out, but for some reason, Topaz still wanted to go home and sleep. She bit her lip gently, trying to figure out where to go now. She brought the bread she had needed for home, but what now?

She rounded the corner into the area of the district she was most friendly with. This was the music district; home to many shops for guitarists, singers, songwriters, violin and cellists, and her favorite store was home to all sorts of supplies for a pianist. She always had to pass through here to get back to her apartment, and she didn’t mind it much either. Sometimes the shops would even have live demonstrations, which were her favorites.

As she passed the piano shop, she stopped as a melody hit her ears. It was a beautiful classical piece of music she would have recognized anywhere. She herself didn’t always play classical; she was smitten with the music of a newer age artist, Yimura, and she knew how to play many of his songs, but she knew a few classical numbers herself. But…whoever was playing this…they were sensational. She closed her eyes to absorb herself in the melody, and opened them only to find she had moved her way right into the store. She stood around with a crowd of people, managing to find her way to the front.

She found there, the one responsible for the sound that seemed to leave everyone around him speechless. The man was handsomely focused on the song he was playing, which she soon recognized as the Moonlight Sonata. She had loved that song, but somehow, found it too complicated to play back when she had first started, and she had never picked it back up again. Though somehow, she felt she’d never be able to match him.

A strange feeling came over her. She wanted to get his attention, to talk to him, but she didn’t know how. She couldn’t make a move forwards, like her feet were glued to the spot. She sucked in a soft breath and shyly moved over to a shopkeeper, whispering something to them and getting a response of ‘Why the hell not, seems like everyone else is doing it!’ she nodded and moved over to a piano on the other side of the shop (Which wasn't as far away as one would think), so as to not disturb the pianist already playing. Should his song be over soon, he might hear her. The only way she would know how to communicate with a fellow piano player, was through a song. So she placed her fingers to the keys and began playing the first melody she could think of, one she remembered how to play well, hoping maybe he’d hear it and realize she was playing for him.[/blockquote][/blockquote][/size]
