I'm trying to make a fanfic about Kai and I need help with character info and story. Any ideas???

What sort of character info do you need and for whom? If its for your OC, I can provide you with a basic character sketch, using my OC from "The First of Their Kind" as an example.

Name: Fujiwara Yuriko (family name, then given name for Japanese characters)
Age: 15
Hair: Shoulder-length blue-black hair, usually in a braid or ponytail
Eyes: Dark purple/amethyst
Skills/Talents: Drawing, singing, Beyblading, martial arts
Personality: Yuriko can be friendly and kind one moment, and then cold and aloof, and then condescending and proud - rather, seemingly so. It all depends on the situation. Her 'negative' side often comes out in the stadium, when she is in the thick of battle.
History: When Yuriko was only 5, her father, a Beyblade designer, had left with his wife - a one-time singer/voice actress turned Beyblade technician - on a business trip. They never returned, leaving the young girl alone. Her kind uncle Takeo, along with his wife Miyuki, took her in and raised her.
6 years later, Yuri - as she is lovingly called by close friends and relatives - happened upon a broadcast of the first Japanese Regional Beyblade Finals. She quickly fell in love with the sport, dedicating almost every spare moment to improving her skills with the blade, not just for herself but in honor of her parents as well.


So...yeah, that's usually the kind of character sketch I use when I create OCs. It helps me to quickly be able to describe him/her, get a feel for the character (personality), and be able to explain the reasons for their actions (motives).

Sometimes, the history is tailored to suit the storyline you've come up with, or vice versa. Sometimes, the character is tailored to suit the story. Its all up to the writer.

I'll give an example of a storyline in my next post.

Sample storyline:

Fujiwara Yuriko, student from class 3-A at Senritsu Daitou Fuji Junior High, was ecstatic to learn about the new Beyblade training program the school was initiating that year. Upon learning that it was Japan's own Team BBA that were to spearhead the program.

Kai Hiwatari wasn't all too keen on training junior high school students, never mind that they were only 2 years younger than he. But as the program progressed - beginning with the mini-tournament to choose the school's representatives at the Japan Junior Beyblade Championships - he settled into the routine of being a trainer...and was attracted to one of the trainees. One who had blazed through the tournament and come out on top, to become a representitive, and captain of the team.

Was it physical attraction...or something deeper? Something outside of both of them? Neither could know, nor could they be entirely sure.

It would take four seperate, seemingly unconnected disappearances at the Junior Championships for the two teens to discover what truly lay within.


So...yeah. This isn't exactly what I had in mind, but its close to it. Again, I used the storyline from "The First of Their Kind" for this. 3nodding

I've had a lot of those before, Sakura-san.

I remember one dream where I went to school only to find it had been replaced with a less... medieval version of Balkov Abbey, that I was classmates with Kai and Takao, and that Beyblading had been added to the list of sports for our inter-class sports tournament.

The bad part: Boris Balkov became my Physics teacher and physical education instructor. O.o

There are a couple of others that I wrote down in my dream diary; I just can't remember them at the moment...

At the moment... I have a Balkov-like teacher for Aesthetics; that means I must check the food and drinks on Monday's Christmas party in the class. You never know what he'll slip into them...

I swear, the only people in my block who haven't changed are my fellow uh...'Blitzkrieg Girls' ^^; and the block's resident Takao/Tyson. xD
