One of prohibitions "biggest" supporters, Tsumi had a very personal approach to dealing with the unsavory characters in the 1920s.

I think Tsumi was thinking of the wrong kind of sailor. Guess we'll just have to try again...

Well, it's been 5 years or so since I've been on void. I suppose it's time to give it another go. The older players might remember her from the incubator all those years ago. Here she is again, my mountain of muscle, Tsumi Watenabe. 
(and yes, she's a girl.)


Tsumi Watenabe

Height: 7'2"  Weight: 397 lbs.  Age: 21

A mountain of muscle with a kind heart, Tsumi Watenabe is genetic oddity on a rather large scale. Her impressive stature doesn't stop her from being polite and trying her hardest not to scare people with her tremendous size. People tend to be frightened simply being near her, and often mistake her for a guy, so she tries to introduce herself as non-threateningly as possible and dyes her hair blue. It doesn't always help the situation though.

Her uncommon height is actually thanks to the genetic abnormality, Gigantism, which normally causes excessive and debilitating growth of certain parts of the body. Tsumi was incredibly fortunate that thanks to medical science and quite a bit of luck, her body has managed to grow at a nearly ideal scaling. Her skeleton, organs, and musculature all increase at a remarkably synchronized rate. But that only explains her height. Tsumi's muscles, or her "Width" is pure exercise, devotion, and a whole lot of time in the gym.

Thanks to a traumatic experience when she was young, Tsumi makes a significant effort to make sure she is strong enough to handle anything that might put her, those she cares about, and particularly her sister, Sasami, in danger. What that might be, she doesn't know, but she works out to habitually to be prepared for it. She has done so to the exclusion of other pursuits however; she doesn't have many friends or much of an education beyond high school, and she is rather naive. She has a strong moral compass, readily stepping in to help others or confront people who may be committing crimes, much to her sister’s dismay since she ends up in the hospital often.

Tsumi can't seem to help ending up in fights, especially here in void, but isn't really well trained in combat. Little more than a brawler, she throws punches, kicks, tables, and eventually herself at enemies with little regard to collateral damage. Despite her size, she's outclassed here in void city, where people have super powers on a regular basis. Tsumi isn't super strong or invulnerable, she's just really strong for a normal person. Where a superhero could easily lift a bus over their head, Tsumi can just manage to lift the back end of a Volkswagen off the ground. It doesn't stop her from blindly charging in, determined to set things right and keep people safe.

You can see a lot more of her at my dA gallery, but I warn you there's a lot of muscle women, you might get hurt. http://otakutaylor.deviantart.com/

PHYSIOLOGY
4. Color of Hair/Eyes/Skin: black always dyed Blue / Blue / Asian



This is an incredibly small detail, but I thought Asians can't get natural blue eyes?

Tsumi's father is Japanese, her mother is Japanese American, her grandma (passed on) was American (had blue eyes), blue eyes was a recessive gene but somehow Tsumi got it.

7. Defects: without her muscles to support her skeleton, Tsumi would likely bend over at the middle and her back would snap.



Something seems off here. I'm no biology expert, but don't you need strong bones to support large muscles? It doesn't at all make sense that her own skeleton can't support her muscles, and makes even less sense that in the process of building her physique, that her bones received no benefits.

Tsumi is naturally 7'2, but she's not naturally muscle-bound, she exercised herself that way. Originally she needed some amount of muscle tone to support her extended skeleton or she'd hunch over for the rest of her life so she started weight lifting to build muscle mass. She went far past her required muscle mass to keep from hunching over because of personal reasons. If she lost the muscles in her back now her upper body would snap her back.

4. Home Life: Parents alive and in New York, father running a small business. Parents treated her nice, though partially because they were scared of her strength a bit.



How did Tsumi feel about her parents? Was she aware that they were afraid of her? How did her parents influence how she is today?

Tsumi was always a good kid, and her parents were only scared of what she might do if someone aroused her temper which rarely showed even when she was little unless someone threatened her friends or family, so they would be a little overly calm when dealing with her. In addition Sasami was mischievous even before she turned "evil" and Tsumi was told to look after her on many occasions.

7. Place in Community: Overprotective older sister.



That seems to apply only to Sasami, as it were. 'Place in community' should refer to how a person stands amongst the masses. Is she a leader? A follower? A trailblazer? A hermit?

Tsumi is always willing to be a helping hand, will try to correct any mistake, and feels it's her duty to stop people who are being mean or doing illegal things. However, other than protecting her sister, Tsumi rarely takes the initiative to go looking for things to do. I believe follower applies the best.

2. Personal Premise/Ambition: to simply be there for her sister.
3. Frustrations: when Sasami treats her like dirt for trying to help or when anyone tries to mess with Sasami.
4. Temperament: commonly glad and accepting of others, though she flies into a near uncontrollable rage when her sister is threatened.
5. Attitude toward Life: “you are supposed to always follow the rules and be a good person, right sis?”



Something seems unnatural about Tsumi's devotion to her sister. Granted, it's fine to care about someone over yourself, but this gives me the impression that Tsumi doesn't have much of a good impression of herself. Don't get me wrong, it's a fine premise to work on, it's just something seems really off...

Tsumi blames herself for what happened to Sasami when they were little.  Already the older sister who was supposed to watch her, Tsumi turned her life mission to be a guardian for her sister and she often only thinks she's done any good with her life when Sasami is taken out of harms way. Unfortunately Tsumi's not smart enough to realize when it's Sasami putting them into harms way.

It's always fun to do these kinds of things, don't know why though. Here's Tsumi Watenabe.

Tsumi Watenabe

1. Sex/Gender: Female
2. Age: 21
3. Height/Weight: 7’2” 397 lbs.
4. Color of Hair/Eyes/Skin: black always dyed Blue / Blue / Asian
5. Posture: Straight, but lacking manners
6. Appearance: A near terrifyingly large muscled woman, but she speaks with a surprising childish naiveté. Wears a few variations of workout clothes with basic everyday wear, her most common is a brown jacket with blue jeans and a tight red workout suit underneath. But is always seen with her green headband. Even when dressed formally.
7. Defects: without her muscles to support her skeleton, Tsumi would likely bend over at the middle and her back would snap.
8. Heredity: Watenabe women always seem to have long bangs (her hair); otherwise she’s a near physical oddity to her parents genes.

SOCIOLOGY

1. Social Class Upper class, though it’s thanks to her sister she’s there.
2. Occupation: Currently living off her sister as a bodyguard, she was once a security guard and cop in training.
3. Education: B- average in high school. Participated in many sports but did not continue to play after school, loved gym class.
4. Home Life: Parents alive and in New York, father running a small business. Parents treated her nice, though partially because they were scared of her strength a bit. Tsumi has no romantic relationships, and has had none.
5. Race: Human, just a freakishly large one.
6. Nationality: Japanese
7. Place in Community: Overprotective older sister.
8. Political affiliations: Politics is a boring show on TV, Tsumi watches cartoons instead. (i.e. no real care for politics)
9. Amusements/Hobbies: Watching cartoons, lifting weights, watching cartoons while lifting weights.
10. Time Period/Era: the present. (Which in void seems to be slightly futuristic)

PSYCHOLOGY

1. Moral Standards: very high, a good person and a law abiding one and expects others to be the same.
2. Personal Premise/Ambition: to simply be there for her sister.
3. Frustrations: when Sasami treats her like dirt for trying to help or when anyone tries to mess with Sasami.
4. Temperament: commonly glad and accepting of others, though she flies into a near uncontrollable rage when her sister is threatened.
5. Attitude toward Life: “you are supposed to always follow the rules and be a good person, right sis?”
6. Complexes : Tsumi never believes she’s strong enough, and will continue to train as much as she can
7. Extrovert (I think)
8. Abilities: Language: English and Japanese, Talents: Very strong, not super strong. If it’s in the limits a normal human can achieve. Tsumi can probably do it. (See the guys on ESPN who can pull a 747 across a runway.) but not like superman lift a train off the tracks and throw it a mile away type thing. Technically has training in martial arts and wrestling but rarely makes use of them without being asked to.
9. Qualities: Tsumi is very honest, albeit a bit stupid, and tries her best to make sure she and everyone around her does not do anything illegal or mean.
10. IQ: 78
