Character Information

Name: Fuu Hououji
Canon: Magic Knight Rayearth (Manga)
Canon Point: Post-canon
Age: 17
History: Schoolgirls get abducted to a world called Cefiro from Tokyo Tower, with rescuing the world’s princess as a ransom. They learn some magic, meet some gods, make some friends, fall in love, all that magical girl stuff. Except gods=robots. And then they find out rescue=murder. They go home and wind up with some serious stockholm syndrome for the world they were kidnapped to and also mega depression and go back to save it from falling apart because they murdered a super important political force/personification of goodness/p much god. Vagrants are princes, seemingly the only people alive are people they met, the plot makes no sense and contradicts itself several times. There are clearly racist personifications attacking things. Tokyo Tower is important. God is a marshmallow. CLAMP.

I wish I could tell you that was me joking but honestly that's about it.

Personality: In any classic girl trio, there tend to be three types. There must be the strong, the beautiful and the intelligent. Magic Knight Rayearth is no exception. Hikaru, the main character is brave, Umi is beautiful, and Fuu Hououji is unquestionably the brains of the operation.

You see, Fuu is a genius. Attending a school for the gifted, Fuu still does well in all her classes and absolutely loves to read. In fact, Fuu has quite a few geeky tendencies--a love of computer programming and video games, concern over her homework while trapped in a “video game world”, and a hobby of reading books. Outside of just scholarly pursuits, she does seem to be fairly well rounded. She's a member of the archery team, and is fairly good with both bow and arrow, as well as a sword. She's been shown in extra art and omake to be good at other sports as well, music and art, and even cooking. Fuu is the kind of person who excels at everything she really tries for.

Fuu has had all the opportunities a life has to offer--a high class, wealthy family that cares about her, and several talents--but unlike the stereotypical "rich bitch" such well-off characters fall into, Fuu takes her status with grace. In fact, everything she does is done with an air of grace. She uses honorifics with everyone, calling monsters Monster-san, and enemies by -san as well (even by the end of the second manga, Ferio is the only one she calls without an honorific, including her two best friends), only to be respectful and polite--and the politeness extends to every action in her life. She feels that everyone deserves to be respected and treated well. Fuu Hououji is the kind of person who enjoys the happiness of others. Her introduction to the series is a clear example of this: on her own field trip to Tokyo Tower, Fuu watches Hikaru enjoy a pair of binoculars. When the time runs out and Hikaru is looking for change, Fuu simply gives it to her, expecting nothing in return, just saying that she enjoys watching her have fun.

Fuu's goodness is such a defining personality trait that her magic is based mostly in protection and healing as opposed to Hikaru and Umi's attack based magics. In Cefiro, everything is decided by heart and will, and it's only when you truly believe that you have any power. Fuu's first spell learned is simply one to heal her friend--she wants nothing more than to keep her friends safe, and the theme continues, learning spells for protection, and one to immobilize when her friends are in danger. Throughout the course of the manga, Fuu shows a great deal of compassion and mercy, choosing to give others a chance to change their course of action, even when only moments before they had tried to kill her. It is stated by Master Mage Clef that her compassion is her source, and this never changes.

But you cannot mistake that for stupidity. Fuu is not one to be trifled with. She can be harsh, clever or tricky at any time. She would protect her friends with her life, and will fight to the death over them, as she did threaten Caldina with death if she didn't back down. Ferio has blatantly called her clever more than once when she tricked him into becoming their body guard in order for him to find the exit of the forest. While she is certainly trusting, she is very aware that others could plot against her, as she pointed out that, though Ferio was kind to them, he could be working for Zagato.

Fuu is determined and protective. She is willing to sacrifice her own safety for her friends, but still cherishes her own self. She says in the manga that she has no other way to honor the people who have raised and cared for her but to keep herself safe and healthy. She fights to keep herself in one piece for those who love her, and those she loves. But she also fights to keep her friends safe, even at the cost of her own life. She puts her whole heart into everything she does--which makes her a wonderful magic knight, considering that everything from her armor to her weapons to her ability to pilot the Mashin itself relies on the strength of her heart. It is her realization that she would die for her friends rather than harm them--and the realization of how strong that desire really is--that gives Fuu the ability to break out of an illusion that Umi and Hikaru couldn't fight. She is very honorable, to the point where she will not ask for help if she feels that it is asking too much of someone, and will not take more if she has only asked for so much.

When things calm down, though, Fuu can be Captain Obvious, which is a particularly annoying trait of hers. She does find it necessary to tell you, for example, that you are under water. She's got a very dippy attitude and comes off as somewhat shy when it comes to personal matters. She's easy to make blush and stammers when flirted with and complimented, though she’s ready and willing to compliment others and put information about herself out there. Fuu is the first of the magic knights to offer an introduction, despite the situation, and this is used repeatedly in the manga.

Her almost carefree, sweet attitude is greatly lost after Fuu experiences taking someone else's life. She is certainly still kind, but between the first and second manga, Fuu's smiles are visibly sadder, she cries more, and she drops weight. She's lost her love of video games, since she can no longer see the villain as truly bad, and grows quiet around her family, worrying her sister a great deal.

Fuu is the kind of person who thrives off having people around her, and being alone can take a heavy toll. On that same note, Fuu is the kind of person who will never let anyone else see her tears. Hikaru makes a statement to Lantis “They tried to cheer me up, but I know they cried when they were alone.” Ferio, so far as the series states, is the only exception to the “cry when they’re alone” rule. Fuu desires to keep herself and her heart strong, so that others can rely on her, and sometimes forgets that she needs someone to rely on, too. Her sister, Kuu, makes it very apparent that this is an issue when she tells Fuu that she knows something very serious is wrong, but things aren’t as hard when there’s someone to talk to. Fuu works so hard to make sure everyone else around her is all right, that it’s very obvious she forgets herself at times.

Abilities: It's complicated. Before Cefiro and in her own magicless version of Earth, she had no magic.
But after magic chose her in Cefiro, she learned the following spells:
Healing Winds (what it says on the label, could bring back someone from the brink of death, but doesn’t work on sickness)
Winds of Protection (barrier spell)
Binding Winds (again, what it says on the label) and
Emerald Typhoon (a strong wind-based attack spell)
She's also a genius, an archer, and has a knack for strategy. She's also capable of using a two-handed sword.
Strengths: Compassionate, willful, responsible, noble, intelligent
Weaknesses: Naive, too forgiving, captain obvious, unwavering of her own morality, too willing to put the burden on herself and not share it with others.
These are not buzzwords I'm sorry I couldn't think of the buzzwords that may have been associated.

God/Shinki: God
Why?: Let's talk straight. I didn't want to play another Shinki. But there is some justification here. Fuu is a powerful figure in Cefiro, being able to pilot a deity. She's literally a part of an ancient legend. She's willful and kind and all things you'd generally want a god to be.
Top 3 Choices: Apollo - god of light and archery and healing. Mostly because archery and healing. But also a little bit because music, which has been important to Fuu in omake stuff as well as the OVA, which is an AU but like. shh. But really, while we mostly associate Apollo with the sun today, Apollo was worshiped really heavily as a healing deity.
Bona Dea - follows the same thought process as Apollo. She's a goddess of healing and protection, as well as chastity (look Fuu is so easily embarrassed that girl gets kissed on the hand and freaks out. look.). According to the wiki, she gave women the ability to do things normally forbidden to them, and as a robot piloting magical girl...
Brigid - Heyo, notice a pattern? Another deity of healing! Except in this case, the wiki tells me she's a triple goddess, which suits Fuu as the triad-theme of MKR goes.
God Type: Fuu would do her best to take her god's place. She's very helpful so short of things that would hurt people, she'd answer any prayers she could. Like she is going to take this job so seriously it might be a problem.

Power: Positive Emotion Inducement. So like, all of her god choices being big on healing and protection, I think it'd be kind of cool to have the emotional end of that. When I specify positive I mean giving Fuu the ability to induce positive emotions in people--happiness, calm, gratitude, hope--stuff like that. She wouldn't have the power to make people sad or angry or afraid (with her powers anyway) or anything like that, just the positive end of the spectrum.

Writing Sample

Sample: Test Drive Meme!

Other

Anything Else?: Umi Ryuuzaki should be apping in this round as a shinki! I've talked to the player and we'd like to pair them up if that's okay.
