Name: Major Motoko Kusanagi; the Major

Original Series: Ghost in the Shell (I’ll be playing the SAC version)

Age: 26

Gender: Female

Occupation: Japanese National Defense Force Officer

Personality & Quirks: Motoko is stoic and cool, always thinking before she acts.  She sometimes comes off as distant or cruel, but she has a deep compassion for those unable to defend themselves, and as such, she joined up with the National Defense Force.  She has no pity for criminals- or those stupid enough to perform even one criminal act- they deserve what they get and there’s no point dwelling on them.

Physical Description: Slender but strong, Motoko has a face that blends easily in to the crowd and is easily forgotten, but somehow still manages to have an intriguing kind of beauty about her.  The one feature about her that is truly memorable are her dark violet eyes, which most often wear an expression of cool distance, but may show other emotions depending on the situation (or how well she knows someone).  Her dark hair which can either be called blue or purple (depending on who is looking) is cut short in something of a practical style.  Although she often seems oblivious to her somewhat generous figure, she tends to dress in skimpy outfits when not in her protective military gear.

Magical/Physical Abilities: Short, mid, long-range firing capability; hand-to-hand fighting; hacking ability

Hobbies: Diving (yes like underwater diving)

History: When she was a child, Motoko came down with an illness and after recovering, she was forced to re-learn to control her body as well as her right arm and leg which needed to be replaced with prosthetics.  She struggled for years to regain full control of her own body again, and hides certain insecurities behind a mask of calm collectedness.  Eventually, she managed to gain control over the body that seemed to be fighting her every step of the way and joined the military after they noticed her superior leadership and hacking abilities.  She stays in an attempt to give her life some kind of meaning, feeling that the stringent military make her feel caged, but without them, she feels as if she is accomplishing nothing.
