Minamoto Momiji

Description: The daughter of a former USAF pilot and a japanese woman, Momiji (who for legal reasons has her mother's family name) has spent several years in the US at various times, interspersed with time at different places in Japan. This has left her generally bereft of long-term friends and a general shyness and insularity due to teasing she has recieved over things ranging from her blonde hair to her height to her Japanese-accented English to her English-accented Japanese. She prefers the company of books or the internet. Visually she is classically attractive, though (by Japanese standards) tall and shapely. Her long blonde hair is in a hime cut.

Hinanawi Kaguya

Description: Braided/flowing waist length black hair, dark brown eyes behind rimless glasses/coloured contacts, slightly above average height.

Kaguya is a fairly ordinary high school student and part-time fashion model of some renown, Kaguya tries her best to keep her work and her personal life separate. With the aid of her agent-mother, a former Geisha, she has crafted a casual appearance that conceals her natural good looks, permitting her to avoid the inevitable unwanted advances. In her free time, she joins her friends on trips downtown to keep up with the latest trends or to feed a danmaku arcade machine with money, all funded by her cut of her salary. She has recently joined the Tea Ceremony club, mainly at the behest of her mother that she "learn some useful skills". This has led to an unfortunate reduction in gaming time (studying, shopping and work too important to miss).

Kaguya follows a simple philosophy in her daily life: The avoidance of trouble, specifically of the kind that is difficult to solve and may cause more trouble down the road. Her hobby exemplifies what she considers to be the best way to accomplish this: Small, careful movements coupled with high situational awareness. Either that or it's a rationalization for laziness, shyness and a Machiavellian mindset.

Kamino Chiri

Kamino Chiri is an ordinary middle class Japanese girl who is small of stature and cute rather than beautiful. Her hair is orange and actually goes just past shoulder length, though the way she ties her pigtails makes it seem shorter. She is a card-carrying pettanko but is considered to have decent legs by the male student body, which helps as her magic girl uniform involves thigh highs. Her big pink-rose-gemstone eyes are rather more striking than the rest of her, and have highly reflective quality should one meet them for any length of time. She is the pinkest and girliest of the Summer Knights troupe and the Heart of the group if there was any. Although quite hapless at first, Chiri is thought to have unfathomable potential as a magic girl.

Chiri has several mundane superpowers, amongst which is the ability to eat any amount of sweets and baked goods without getting fat (or tall, or any better endowed). She does very well in useless subjects like Art and Social Studies and poorly in useful ones like Math, the Sciences and English. She is especially bad at Phys Ed where she is part of the laggard pack, barely ahead of the dying sick girls and the anemic meganekko that konks out during warm-up. However, there is somtimes circumstantial indication that she is actually much smarter than her grades suggest. She is a superb cook and especially good at baking since she has worked part time at her mother's bake shop since she was little and inherited most of her powers in that regard. The kitchen is one of the places where her mild though noticeable streak of klutziness never manifests. Being that as she sells cakes for a living, her smile seems to gain a sinister edge when offering baked goods to the others.

Because of her appearance and characteristics, she interests a smaller, different subset of males than most of the rest of the cast, such as the shyest of the shy boys drawn to her kind heart, the creepy lolicon English teacher, or many who have tasted her cooking once and dream of eating it daily. Of course, Chiri is kind to a fault and tries to see the good parts of everybody. In day to day life she tries hard to be helpful. She has not been known to become romantically attracted to anyone however.

Chiri has a Mysterious Onee-chan in college, Kamino Fuki, who lives alone (as opposed to Chiri who lives with dad). She is incredibly accomplished in various academic and athletic pursuits. Although Chiri admires her Big Sis a great deal indeed, it is unknown how Fuki sees her in return.

Magic Girl Persona

Flower: Cherry Blossom

Magic Girl Name: Falling Cherry Blossom

Seed Jewel: Ring on her left middle finger with incredibly tiny imagery of a cherry blossom season engraved on the surface.

Description: Her magic girl costume spans the pink spectrum and contains frilly bloomers (if you look under the skirt, you pervert), frilled white thighhighs tied off with ribbons, and various frilly/beribboned accoutrements to the dress. The fabric ranges white to light pink, her hair is a more vibrant pink and some of the thinner ribbons and those in her hair are a shade closer to rose.
