Vale

It took Vale awhile to get the hang of the idea of Sword Art Online. Ontop of that, the first town was so massive in scale she kept finding herself getting lost. Her attire far too revealing for her own comfort at this current moment, a feeling rather unusual to herself. She managed to find some tattered cloth that she managed to use as a cloak for some kind of cover, and continued to walk about slightly aimlessly. After some time she managed to start recognizing paths, she looked down at the paper and began following street signs that led her to what felt like her first true step in this world.

She slowly sauntered in, pushing the door in a slightly shy like manner which was another unusal feeling to her, "Hello? Is anyone here?' She asked aloud. After a moment a man with long white hair came out from behind a wall in his alchemist shop. Quickly Vale glanced at the paper and was able to descern from the description that this was the man she was looking for.

"Hello, my name is Zakariah. I see you're here to learn a bit about potion crafting, if I do say so myself." His gentle voice was soothing to her ears. And based on the description of the quest, she knew he was an NPC so there had to be level of modesty that the man possessed. She pulled the cloak covering her off.

Afterwards she bowed to the elderly man, "Yes sir, can you please teach me how to craft potions." She asked kindly.

After awhile of peering at the jobs Vale noticed one of the sections was noted for 'Newer Players'  without hesitation she grabbed the one labeled 'The First Few Lessons are Free'. Vale walked over to the nearby bench to take some time to read this paper over. She was pretty surprised that there was a quest to help immediately begin learning the world and it's nuiances, "Well since my original plan of learning this world alongside Yukino. I guess the best I can do is learn the world by using the system itself?" She sounded confused by her own statement, "Man I'm not good with this technology stuff..." She muttered.

After awhile of staring at the same paper she sighed, "I guess there is no better time than the present to get to it... I wouldn't have learned how to fight in the real world if it weren't for that attitude." She stated. Vale lazily pulled herself up from off the bench and began walking around. The dark skinned girl hadn't exactly spent the time learning the pathways of the town or anything of the sort, instead she decided to self wallow in her misery and let it get the best of her, "I'll live this world Yukino. I promise." He whispered to herself.

Vale wiped the tears from her eyes again, her hand jerked away from her face as the soreness built up, "I just can't believe she'd do that..." She muttered to herself. The long purple haired girl still in disblief that the love of her life had abandoned all hope before every truly giving this world a shot. It was too much for Vale to choke down, she had never truly sat and cried her eyes out before. She wasn't even aware of how many days she had couped herself in some random building, watching as the others waltz around in the main plaza. Vale wasn't sure if she was actually content the confines of the game, but the girl was sure at some point she would need to get off her rump and get to work.

Vale gritted her teeth and stood up tall, "I'm not just gonna sit here and sulk Yukino! I can't just cry and hope you'll fix this atrocity you've caused. I don't even know if you're actually gone!" She screamed at herself, causing some to turn to look inside the building. She patted her face then looked up, "I won't sit here. I'm gonna break free of this game... I hope you're there." Her temper temper quickly fading as she renewed herself to the original purpose of this venture. Thus she reached her first foot out and began strolling toward the job board that most happened to frequent, "I guess this is where I would go to look for quests." She questioned as she stared blankly at the board and all it's lightly flowing paper.

Umiko has a very slender fit build. Due to her parents being of both African and Japanese decent, she is naturally much taller than the average Japanese woman. Her assets are to be desired by most other women. Very long velvety smooth deep purple hair. Her dark tan skin complextion is incredibly exotic. Umiko is inredible shape due to her love for Muai Thai, and Boxing.

History:

Umiko is from Osaka, Japan. The only child of Murasaki, Sojiro and Murasaki, Aiyana. Umiko's father is half African and Half Japanese, and her mother is full Japanese decent and many claim that she got the perfect blend of both worlds. Neither of her parents were much into physical sports or athletics of any sorts and both have been baffled by her desire and love to be in physical contact sports.

From the young age of 6, Umiko was finding herself in fights with boys from her school. It got to a point where she was at risk from being removed from her school by the school board. So her father decided to try and find a way to get her to release her aggression and showed her the world of Martial Arts. She was almost instantly hooked in, she pleaded to her father and mother to let her learn Martial Arts. After a while of talking they decided they would let her choose which she wanted but, she could only learn one. With her parents supervision, she immediately began looking into each of the martial arts. She finally decided after watching videos on Muai Thai. When Umiko started taking classes she almost never got into fights at school for years.

Almost eight years later Umiko was competing for National Championships. To her parents surprise she managed to win the National Championship and was beginning to supercede being a black belt at Martial Arts. She was beginning to yearn for more, she didn't solely want to do Muai Thai although she loved the fighting style. After winning a second National Championship the following year she decided to pick up on something completely different. Soratori, Yukino of her closest friend at school happened to be in Boxing. After watching her friend at boxing practice she decided that would be her second Martial Arts to learn. Together with Yukino they both became pretty good at boxing until it was apparent that Umiko natural talent for Martial Arts began to show over Yukino's.

A few years later, Yukino began losing interest in Martial Arts in general and wanted to cheer on Umiko as she competed for tournaments in both sports. Umiko originally thought that she was the reason that Yukino didn't want to participate in Boxing anymore. But Yukino explained that she had gained interest in video gaming. After spending close time together the two girls began realizing feelings for each other, Umiko wanted to know more about Yukino's video game interest. And Yukino wanted to see Umiko become the best that she could be. A Year later when both girls had turned eighteen they had confessed their love for one another.

Five years later, both girls managed to finish College with good results and they had agreed that they would look at around that time to consider marriage to one another. Yukino's family had always been wealthy, and as a proposal gift she wanted the brand new state of the art video game to come out. Sword Art Online. Umiko had managed to make enough from her tournament winnings to pay for a full spa day for the two of them. And they would do so after they spent a hour or so trying out the new game.

LINK START

Umiko and Yukino took some time to learn the ropes of the system together without looking much into the way of help. But the unfortunate and fateful event occurred where they learned they were trapped in a video game until they managed to find an end. Yukino's mentality broke and she was unable to cope with the idea of being trapped in a death game. Without much thought about how Umiko felt, Yukino jumped off the edge of Aincrad instantly ended her life and leaving Umiko alone and heartbroken. Umiko had too much pride to decide to end her life, and decided that she would treat this just like her Tournaments, she would conquer and live through this new world.

Virtues:

Brave: Umiko is always the first into battle and the last to leave, she fears no other human or animal. Due to her extensive body training, the girl is ready to throw fists with any that get in her path.

Prideful: Umiko tries to exhibit empowering feelings, as though she believes they are contagious. She hopes that whatever feelings she is exuding can be picked up by others. 

Loyal: Those that have earned the trust of Umiko learn that they have her trust for life. She'll defend anyone to their last breath, until the day they break that trust.

Protective: Anyone that attempts to harm one Umiko cares about will swiftly find themselves on the badside of her arms and legs. She will not hesitate to put anyone in the dirt whom she deems deserving.

Vices:

Hard-Headed: Once Umiko has made a decision, it is improbable to get her to change her mind. She is far too stubborn to go against her decision and she tends to be pretty decisive in what she wants. She'll almost never go against her initial decision, even if it isn't the best course of action.

Overly Aggressive: Since Umiko is well aware of how to defend herself, she tends to let her skills at fighting get the better of her thinking and she is willing to fight at almost anytime and anyplace.

Cocky: Umiko knows just how good looking she is, and knows just how skillful she is at Martial Arts. She isn't afraid to flaunt her stuff at any point in time. She at times can make poor decisions due to how inflated her ego can tend to get.

Ruthless: Once Umiko has decided that she is going to throw down and fight someone, she will not hesitate to inflict serious wounds. And she will only stop once her opponent is completely unconscious, she believes one should not be willing to fight unless they're willing to give it all.
