Anzai Takahashi

Valkyrie Captain (a.k.a. The White Angel)

Physical Description

General Physical Condition

Anzai is seen as the most beautiful of all of the Valkyrie warriors. She has long silky red hair, beautiful emerald green eyes that might be mistaken as Elven if not a bit darker, a small nose, slightly full lips, and flawless smooth skin. She is also very physically fit.   However, there is one small issue that has caused Anzai to be concerned. For the past two months, Anzai has had several sickness spells come over her. The same sickness that occurs during the early stages of pregnancy. If this is true it could very well affect her position as a Valkyrie and destroy all that she has achieved.

Body Features

Physical quirks

Anzai has a very unique, confident posture. As a renowned beauty and the leader of the Valkyrie Order, confidence is something she has in spades. She stands with her shoulders back and her feet apart, in a stance of strength, letting the people around her know that she is someone of importance and not to be trifled with.

Special abilities

Anzai is extremely gifted in battle strategy. She has the ability to look at a battle plan, see the flaws in it, and adjust accordingly. She has gotten out of some very tricky situations due to this ability and is often called upon by generals to seek her advice.

Personal history

Anzai was born in the year 3A-1210 to one of the proudest and honorable Nomadic Houses, House Takahashi. As a child, Anzai was seen as quite the beauty among Nomadic girls. It was for this reason that caught the eye of the Valkyrian Order. By her eighth birthday, Anzai’s parents agreed to the Valkyries offer and transferred the care of Anzai to them, and on the eve of 3A-1218, Anzai began her elite training into becoming a Valkyrie herself. Anzai was in a class with nine other girls, though the training was difficult and at times, Anzai thought about giving up and returning home. But she continued on and soon climbed to the top of her class.   Two years after becoming a Valkyrie, while on a routine patrol of the road between Farhold and Maria’s Harbor with the Valkyrie leader, Sone Ito, Anzai’s group was ambushed by rebel soldiers. Anzai and her fellow sisters were able to fend off their attackers, but not before Arch Valkyrie Sone was mortally wounded. In Sone’s dying words, she passed the torch of leadership to Anzai.   Two months after becoming the leader of the Valkyrian Order, Anzai did what no one has ever done in history. She tamed a giant desert wolf that almost attacked Ravenscar, whom which she now rides into battle or simply just take a casual stroll through the desert.

Accomplishments & Achievements

Aside from becoming a leader at such a young age, she also tamed a giant desert wolf. No one had ever done that before. She is a woman with many firsts and has made the Order incredibly proud.

Failures & Embarrassments

There are very few actual recorded failures but there are encounters that Anzai has had that she is not entirely proud of. She wants to do things better always. It’s probably actually a good thing that she always wants to improve.

Mental Trauma

Anzai has slowly been creating her own mental trauma as she continuously fights her own feelings she has for Halon Avácsh and her sworn duty as a Valkyrie.

Intellectual Characteristics

Anzai is highly intelligent, and has received a very in-depth education due to her training with the Valkyrian Order. She picks things up very quickly, and is able to make connections that people twice her age are unable to pick up on. She is highly adaptable, and has high confidence in her intelligence.

Morality & Philosophy

Anzai, like the other members of the Valkyrian Order, is a follower of the Way of the Sword and the goddess Ilena. As the leader, her devotions are increased tenfold. She believes strongly in the power of the body and spirituality, and is often found meditating. She has a strong sense of duty to her order, which makes her struggle to hide her feelings for Halon very difficult, and causes her a lot of moral conflict.

Taboos

Anzai holds a lot of disdain for deserters. She has such a strong sense of duty, to her order and to the protection of her people, that someone deserting on their own duties is abhorrent to her.

Personality Characteristics

Motivation

To be the best and most respected warrior of her time. She has a lot of motivation to also protect the people around her because well…she worries about them. Her sisters are her family and she doesn’t want to let them down. She is also deeply motivated to following her heart whenever possible, a path that is complicated because of her vows as a Valkyrie.

Savvies & Ineptitudes

Anzai is especially book savvy and weapons savvy. She is highly intelligent, and strives to increase her knowledge every day. She picks up weapons training extremely quickly. She is also people-savvy- as the leader of the Valkyrian Order, she has to form bonds with all of her fellow members, and gain their trust as a leader. She is naturally talented at many things, and there are not many documented ineptitudes in her character. If she has any, she hides them deeply in order to protect her image as a leader and warrior.

Likes & Dislikes

She loves her wolf, her sisters, and her job. She does not like people that hurt others, and falling short on any circumstance. And though it's forbidden by her Valkyrie Oaths, Anzai is deeply in love with Halon Avácsh, the current Crowned Prince of Iiauskana.

Virtues & Personality perks

Anzai has very strong leadership qualities, both inherent and developed over experience. She is able to inspire confidence in herself and others, and her people-savvy nature inspires loyalty.   She is a highly loyal person with a strong sense of duty. When she commits to something, she commits whole-heartedly, and nothing short of death could make her back down. This is true of both her duties as a Valkyrie, and her personal relationships.   Anzai is also a very kind person. She has a lot of empathy for others, especially those she is close to. Her kindness is one of the things which inspires loyalty in those she leads.

Vices & Personality flaws

Although she is kind, she can also be harsh when it comes to her leadership. She does not tolerate failure or desertion, in herself or in those she leads, and if she senses something like that she will do whatever she can to wipe it out.   Her loyalty also makes her stubborn. It is difficult to change her mind once she is set on an opinion, which can be a detriment in her leadership and personal life.   Growing up as a renowned beauty has instilled her with a sense of vanity. She takes a lot of pride in her looks, and will go to great lengths to keep them up.

Personality Quirks

Anzai’s confident manner sometimes causes her to talk over others, so much so that she has gained a reputation for it. She tries to keep herself in check, but when she has an opinion she makes sure that others hear it.

Hygiene

Anzai bathes frequently, as a part of her duty to maintain the image and reputation of the Valkyrian Order. She takes great pride in her appearance as a reputed beauty.

Contacts & Relations

Anzai has a wide variety of contacts, most of whom are her own Valkyrie sisters. However, over the past recent year, Anzai has been seeing the Elven heir to the Green Throne of Avalon, Halon Avácsh, quite regularly. Rumor has it that the two are lovers, Anzai keeps disputing quickly by saying that they are simply good friends and that she’s just maintaining decent relations with the elves, and the fact that attachments go against her vows as a Valkyrie.

Family Ties

Anzai is the eldest daughter of Hakku Takahashi, Lord Regent of Dragonsrest. She has one twin brother, Hiro, and a younger sister, Samantha. Being a Valkyrie, Anzai rarely gets to see any of them as her duties keeps her quite busy. Anzai also considers many of her Valkyrie sisters family, as she basically grew up with some of them.

Mannerisms
