Ako and Riko Zigushen

Ako Zigushen

Gender: Female

Age: 19

Meister: Alex Ironsmith

Weapon Form: Ako takes the form of a UMP45. A sub-machine gun known to fire .45 caliber rounds. However, Ako is a knockoff brand of the UMP45 that is enrolled as a wavelength based gun. When harmonized with her miester, she fires wavelength based rounds with less damage and recoil than normal .45 caliber bullets. Considering of it's immense power, it also has a considerable amount of recoil and moderate accuracy due to it's light weight.

Love Interest: Ako has no love interest yet has just slight flirting-like feelings around Alex

Appearance: Ako is about 6'4 while balancing on her tail. She has two red scales on each cheek and has bright red hair. She usually keeps her hair straight with the front bangs hanging loosely down on her forehead. Her hair spans all the way down to her waist. Her eyes are yellow, in the shape of snake-eyes. Just below her hips where her legs should begin, a large snake tail forms. The scales are deep red and glimmer in the sun. With her tail, her length comes to an amazing 20 feet 2 inches give or take a few inches.

Ako wears a white tank-top jacket with yellow trimming along with a red undershirt. She normally is seen wearing a pair of golden hair clips on both sides of her head along with a pearl necklace her mother bestowed upon her when she was a child. Ako also wears jean-like shorts with no leg holes in them considering she is half snake, no legs, just a snake tail. When Ako hangs around with her sister in public, she likes to wear a white fedora, she has a weird fascination for fedoras.

Personality: Ako is a very outgoing girl with a high enthusiastic personality. She tends to be very hyper and excited most of the time, regardless of the situation at hand. Every time something bad were to happen, she wouldn't seem scared at all, rather she would be happy and just think of it as a game. Ako loves to play games and would always drag her sister into any form of game just for kicks. She has a certain fondness of sweets and adores seafood, making it common for her to stay near any type of shoreline. Yet since she lives in Death City with her sister and Alex, she would do whatever it took to look for either a candy store or a seafood restaurant. Since Ako is half snake, she is cold blooded so she has to look for a source of heat to keep her warm. Whether it would be snuggling with her meister for warmth or sit right next to the furnace, heat was her number one priority for survival.

When harmonized with her miester, she fires wavelength based rounds with less damage and recoil than normal .45 caliber bullets. Considering of it's immense power, it also has a considerable amount of recoil and moderate accuracy due to it's light weight.

Love Interest: Riko has no love interest yet has strong flirting-like feelings around any male she finds, even her own meister.

She usually keeps her hair straight with the front bangs hanging loosely down on her forehead. Her hair spans all the way down to her waist. Her eyes are green, in the shape of snake-eyes.

Riko also wears jean-like shorts with no leg holes in them considering she is half snake, no legs, just a snake tail. When Riko hangs around with her sister in public, she likes to wear a black beenie due to her fashion style as a careless, flirty punk.

Personality: Riko is a very careless girl with a low enthusiastic personality. She tends to be lay-back and tired most of the time due to her persona of being lazy. Every time something bad were to happen, she wouldn't care unless it involved her sister, which Riko would have strong, overprotective instincts. Riko, however, doesn't seem to care for Alex. She barely knows him and yet he expects more from both her and her sister. Whenever Alex needed her to do something, she would either groan or shrug him off. Yet when he needed her and her sister in weapon form, she'd at least co-operate with him on that and resonate with his soul. Riko loves to dine, telling her out as a double-persona girl. Outside the house, she is a mature and rather organized girl. Yet inside the house, she is carefree and lazy. Alex took her and her sister in, making it more complicated to live with their meister. Since Riko is half snake, she is cold blooded so she has to look for a source of heat to keep her warm. Whether it would be snuggling with her meister for warmth or sit right next to the furnace, heat was her number one priority for survival.

History: When Ako and Riko were born, both were born human, they weren't originally lamia. They have no idea who their parents were and why the twins were cast away but their back story only gets important through their later years.

When the twins were 7, they lived at an orphanage just outside of Tokyo, which is now shut down and abandoned. It was a cold and desolate place where the children kept getting ill every night and hungry every morning. Ako and Riko were just two of the few children who had survived that rat hole when the place was about to get shut down. Recently, before it was shut down, a woman who looked young, around her twenties, maybe, had adopted the twins and took them in as her own.

Afterwards, the twins were taken far away from Tokyo to live somewhere secluded. A cottage just out in a forest near Mt. Kilimanjaro. It was rather quiet for the two girls as they were welcomed in the woman's home. Yet to their surprise, the woman was a witch. Around the cottage were failed experiments of human-animal crossbreeding. This woman was vile and both of the girls had to bolt. Only, it was too late. The witch wanted to see what would happen if she could fuse the two girls with twin snakes, specifically anacondas. What was more disturbing was the color of the snakes, they corresponded with the twins. So she thought if they matched, it would be a perfect success.

When the fusion began, both the girls were in excruciating pain, wanting it all to end. But of course, since the witch failed at the other experiments, this was obviously going to fail as well. An explosion had erupted half of the cottage in the air, the experiments were lying on the cold, basement floor while the witch was unconscious on the other end of the floor. It was one hell of a sight, the experiment worked and the girls were what the witch wanted them to be. Both were hybrids, half snake and half human, Lamia basically. When the witch came too, a huge smack of a snake tail had hit her across the head, forceful enough to snap her neck and kill her. Riko was infuriated and Ako was upset, crying since they have become abominations.

Tormented and scared, both of the girls hid themselves away from the world as best as they could. But knowing the truth hunting paparazzi and overzealous news reporters, the twins were being hunted down for their appearance. Riko knew what would happen if they were caught, they would be locked up and used as an attraction for money and popularity. Ako would be torn up and broken if that happen. One day, they ended up in Death City, where they thought it was safe. Yet when someone found out about them, all hell broke loose. Everyone thought them as monsters forged by a witch, technically they are. But when their meister, Alex, found them, he took them in to protect their identity. Ako practically threw her trust at him and was happy someone didn't shout and scream, "Monster!" at them. He was actually calm and mature and was more than happy to protect them. Riko, however, doesn't really trust Alex and see eye to eye with him.

Now they have become Alex's weapons and serve with him on hunting Kishin Egg souls in order for him to live. It was rather humorous on how they met Destiny and Ivory. Their souls resonated with Alex easily, and also Destiny and Ivory. Which is strange.  

Miscellaneous:
The technical name for the girls' form is "Lamia," which means a human-snake hybrid.

Ako is a happy and loving girl while Riko is carefree and lazy, yet responsible for her hyperactive sister.

Have You Read the Rules?
"I love Soul Eater!"

Please change them to wavelength guns because actual dual semi-automatic rifles with normal rounds would be really overpowered.

Accepted! It feels a little like they're sort-of clones, but they're distinct enough to feel realistic. I'm not sure why a snake would have to wear pants, though... I guess personal preference?
