Laura Minami

Laura Minami (ラウラミナミ, Raura Minami lit. Raging Sea of the South) is young mage specializing in Water Magic. Even though she's fairly new to her current guild, Archer's Cross, she fits well generaly with the group.

Appearance
Laura is a young woman, appearing to be approxiimately 20 years old. She has a perfect voluptuous figure, so appealing that it rarely doesn't leave an impact on those of the opposite gender. Her hair is tied into a ponytail that is ocean blue on top with dark blue ombre and light purple streaks on the bangs. She wears a golden tiara with a light blue ribbon and a pink and blue seashell attached to it. Her midriff top is blue and white with a light blue collar and white sleeves. Around her neck is a pink pearl necklace with a gold brooch at the center with more pink pearls lining down along the top. She wears a blue skirt, light blue and pink with light pink pearls around the waist and is longer at the back. Her boots are knee-length and light blue trimmed in blue with pink pearls. She also wears very long light blue arm warmers that stop at her hands with pink pearls at the end and seashell earrings.

Personality
Laura is somewhat difficult to fit into a specific mold or stereotype, as far as personality goes. Observations would often lead one to believe that her persona is all over the place, erratic and often as unpredictable as her wardrobe choices. She has a knack for saying the most outrageous things while keeping a completely straight face, usually for the sole purpose of judging how the people around her react to it. Almost everything she does - from her choice in attire to the words she speaks - is tailored to her own, odd form of amusement. She finds hilarity in situations others would consider awkward or unfortunate. That aside, she is also quite blunt and often tactless when conversing. Laura is easy to read as her emotions are displayed clearly across her face for anyone to see. She doesn’t see the point in hiding them and will be more than glad enough to voice her opinions. If she is displeased with someone, she would make sure they know it, and why. It goes without saying that she isn’t the least bit shy or self conscious. She has developed a relatively thick skin over the years and those who attempt to hurt her with mere words would soon come to find out that she just doesn’t care. Hers is the only opinion that matters to Laura.

While she can appear as quite the oddball, she does surprisingly well in combat as it is one of the few things she actually pays attention to. Her incredibly good memory aids her well in picking up on the little details and her single minded focus works in her favor. However, her tendency to disregard orders or not pay attention in the first place makes her pretty bad at teamwork, as well as her knack for offending people. Its not that she is against teamwork, as she likes to say. Teamwork just doesn’t like her. For someone who spent the better part of her nineteen years avoiding responsibility, she has had more than enough time to perfect the skill. As for being put in a leadership position, that would be the worst idea anyone could ever have since Valerie excels at shirking responsibility and would do horribly, on purpose, if forced into such a role.
