 * <p style="margin-bottom: 0in">Personality:People often wrongly assume she has been drinking too much coffee or eating too many sweets due to her boundless energy, however she hasn't had a single drop of coffee in her entire life and dislikes sugary food. She tends to be irritable at night, but during the day she is extremely friendly and outgoing. The more particular details of her personality are closely related to the time of year and lunar cycle, becoming very outgoing in the warm seasons and becoming lethargic and introverted in the cold seasons, with the degree of these changes being controlled by the lunar cycle and specific method changing in relation to the winter/summer solstices and vernal/autumnal equinoxes. People tend to find her unnerving, as her lacks of sleep has given her a perfect internal clock and calender, meaning she instinctively knows the exact date and time, and has become quite adept at keeping track of other peoples schedules and daily rituals.
 * Background:Lan Tsyu grew up on the streets in Vale, it's not that her family was poor, however; she simply had no interest in attending school or spending time at home. She was always an intelligent and high energy child, so she spent most of her time acquiring new skills, starting with simple self defense and pick-pocketing (although she always returned stolen goods). By the time she was old enough to enter combat school, Lan Tsyu was already a proficient and highly pragmatic staff fighter. It was during combat school that her aura was unlocked as is standard practice. Starting the moment her aura was unlocked, she never felt mentally tired, quickly discovering a new-found inability to sleep, while some would be concerned about this, she took the opportunity to begin mastering more skills, learning to disarm her opponents weapon in-combat by removing magazines and jamming safety mechanisms without harming the enemy, as well as swiping the spare ammunition from belts and pouches. As time went on, she mastered other non-combat skills as well, learning to cook, sew, program computers, pick-locks, and perform first aid during her time at beacon before graduating and becoming an active-duty hunter.
 * <p style="margin-bottom: 0in">Position/Class: close striker(Monk)
 * <p style="margin-bottom: 0in">Landing strategy: catches a limb with the chain-blade on her weapon
 * <p style="margin-bottom: 0in">Weapon: Shu Dao(Variable Caliber Chain Spade, VCCS) a monks spade, the cresent blade on one end is connected to a retractable chain, allowing it to be used as a grappling weapon. The weapon also contains an internal aperture barrel capable of dilating to fire different calibers of bullet, ranging from .25 ACP up to 40mm grenades. The loading slot is self adjusting, shifting itself to accept a wide range of magazines designed for virtually any weapon. She designed her weapon specifically to take advantage of her pickpocketing skills, rarely carrying her own supply of munitions into fights against other students and opting instead to use the opponents; however during field operations, she favors .32 semi-auto rounds
 * <p style="margin-bottom: 0in">Semblance: asymptomatic insomnia, she has no need or desire to sleep and is resistant to hypnosis as well as sleep inducing drugs. Due to constantly being awake, her bio-chemistry has become extremely in-tune with nature, meaning she can detect subtle changes in the environment, as well as having a nearly perfect internal clock, and she heas an excess of spare time to learn and practice new skills.
 * Fighting style:
 * against Humans:Disarm the opponents weapon by jamming the firing/transformation mechanisms and stealing ammunition before going for non-lethal take-downs by knocking them unconscious or fighting defensively until they run out of aura.
 * against Grimm:strike vital points, slice tendons, and asphyxiate with the chain on her weapon.
 * <p style="margin-bottom: 0in">Relationships:
 * <p style="margin-bottom: 0in">team: She doesn't really talk about her team, as events that occurred during their last days before graduating from beaocncreated a rift between the four of them.
 * <p style="margin-bottom: 0in">Rost Smith:The two of them have been dating on-and-off for a few months, and others have made note of the sizable age gap between them.
 * Notes: name roughly translate to 'crimson orchid flower' in reference to her hair. Can't think of the politically correct way to describe her skin color, so I'll just say it; she's Chinese. While hr weapon DOES possess ranged capability, she prefers not to use it, as shooting the enemy takes some of the fun out of the fight.
