Yeah. I'm kinda new to this all, as this is (sort of) my first reference and my first audition to an OCT. I'll be submitting literary entries. Ftw.

Name: Hoatzin
Stage Name: Rowan the Rainbow Warrior
Age: 132
Gender: Female
Species: Grey Squirrel
Act/Talent: Grows an afro, cuts it off with her rainbow sword, and then shows off her crowbar on fire by twirling it all around like a baton. She sometimes does a few backflips, depending on the crowd.
Abilities: Hoatzin can grow a rainbow afro in a matter of fifteen seconds. She also has ninja skills. Being a squirrel and all. She doesn't have any fancy magical powers.
Strengths:
-Quick on her paws and can climb trees. And hang onto stuff.
-Can attack in fun southerly regions, due to her height.
-Is experienced with a variety of weapons, including nunchucks!
Weaknesses:
- Being small, she can be easily grabbed and carried away, crushed, ripped apart, etc.
-Although she is fast, she cannot run long distances very well.
-Easily sickened by cereal. Allergies, or an effect of the radioactive cheese? No one knows.
Limitations:
-She cannot change from the rainbow sword to the flaming crowbar too quickly because of the keypad.
-Most of the weapons she possesses glow in some way. Despite the ninja suit, you could probably find her in the dark. Easily.
History: Hoatzin was born in 1878, near a forest in Norway. Sometime, about the third year of her life, she fell into rainbow-colored radioactive cheese. Hoatzin was quite lucky, for the instant she got out of the odd substance, it caught on fire. The fire was rainbow-colored. This caused her body and mind to stop aging (although, thankfully, it did not stop her from growing wise). She has traveled to several places in her long lifetime, and currently resides in Canada. On her many adventures, she found a secret hideaway inhabited by an old squirrel. It was he who taught her combat techniques- archery, fencing, and even nunchuck skills. Ever since, Hoatzin has been the only known Rainbow Warrior Ninja to ever inhabit the Earth.
Personality: Hoatzin often throws references from obscure shows no one’s ever heard of. She likes to learn more about the world and knows most of the constellations. Hoatzin speaks English, American, and Squirrel fluently. She despises ignorant people and animals. She can be over-cautious; Hoatzin is always expecting a trap around the corner. She prefers to work alone and never admits that she was wrong. Her wit is as sharp as the Rainbow Sword she carries- almost enough to offend the average being in about ten minutes. If you keep her talking that long.
Likes: Referencing obscure movies, acting childish, night, stars, being knowledgeable, working alone, offending people
Dislikes: Ignorant people, cereal, things that sparkle too much, admitting she’s wrong, working with others
Other: She finds it silly that she was named after a bird. (No, seriously: [link] ) Her rainbow sword morphs into one other weapon: a flaming crowbar. There’s actually a keypad on the hilt that’s activated by a button. She is generally called ‘Rowan’ because of her stage name. Few know her actual name. Hoatzin always wears her ninja suit.

EDIT: She comes up to 1'4" when standing, and around 6" when on all fours. I think Hoatzin is going to be the midget. =}D

I totally like the actual simple design Hoatzin has and the weapons and abilities bring a very amusing aspect to her character if not the whole tournament : D. Good luck for the tournament!

Finally we got ourselves a clown-like thing! What's a circus without one, eh?

But this lass is so much more than a mere entertainer... she is the essence of AWESOMENESS.

And too cute to boot! <3

RAINBOW AFRO FTW

Larkpaw In reply to AlfaFilly [2010-05-11 20:43:57 +0000 UTC]

...huh. Now that I think about it, she does sorta look like a clown. What with the afro and rainbow nose thing going on. It's amazing how I haven't thought about that until now. Lulz.

...=}D

Good luck to ye in the OCT, by the way.

Oh, wow..
I like this.

This was fun to read and I'll bet she'll be fun to compete with, too. C:

On another note, I think it's cool how this character seems to be the polar opposite of most others I've seen; rather than making them super serious, Hoatzin seems... I dunno, funny? XD

Larkpaw In reply to ReverendAspen [2010-05-10 20:24:02 +0000 UTC]

Yes, she's definately the green potato chip in the crowd we've seen so far. ^^

Good luck to you!
