Name: Ryoko Ishii (石井 涼子 - Ishii, Ryoko)
Alias: Pandora, Ryo-chan/san, and Yoko
Age: 22 (Pre-Timeskip); 25 (Presently)
Gender: Female
Class: Vorgesetze Quincy
Faction: Quincy
Rank: Kardinal {Quincy Leader}
PvP Availability: Permission Only
Description: Ryoko has a slim and hourglass shaped body, which can sometimes get her noticed rather easily. It isn't just her body type that gets her noticed, however, as there are more factors to it than that. She stands at a height of 5'9" and weighs about 135 pounds. Her tall stature is what catches most people's eyes and her long legs as well. Her chest is also quite noticeable being that of a D cup and she isn't lacking in the hip department either. It appears as though she has no muscle to her body at all but they are well toned. Her skin is pale in color and seems to be almost flawless but she does have her own fair of scars. Most go unseen as they are in places that are well hidden or are just too light for them to be noticed easily. Her hair is long and black that falls to about the top of her thigh although straight in nature it does have a tendency to curl slightly at the ends. Her bangs fall just past her chin and are cut at an angle and a strand of her hair runs across her face down to her right cheek. She prefers wearing her hair down but she'll wear it up in ponytail or a bun to keep it out of her eyes and sometimes she'll wear a headband in her hair to keep her bangs back. Her eyes are deep indigo in color sometimes appearing to dark purple instead. Most of the time she seems to be in deep thought about something but they typically look sharp and alert.
Ryoko's sense of style has changed some over the years and has grown a bit more business appropriate, which is also the opposite of her aunt. She typically wears cloths that range from business to business casual especially when she is within the hospital or attending to Quincy business. This usually consists of skirts usually black or dark gray that fall to her knees and button up shirts or blouses of various colors. Upon her feet she chooses between wedges or heels when it comes to her business meetings or consultations. She does try for a more casual approach when she isn't busy, however, and wears something similar to what she used to wear when she was younger. This usually consists of a short pleated skirt and whatever she feels like wearing as a top although normally not too wild. With this casual attire, she will wear combat boots much like she used to or a more high heeled approach to her boots with her thigh high socks to go along with them.
Personality: Ryoko typically carries herself with the utmost of confidence and sometimes gives off the impression that she may be looking down on someone. In some cases, this may very well be true but that isn't always the case. She's a smart girl but despite this fact she still thinks she is capable of anything even if she has been proven the opposite. This attitude of hers is what makes most people flee in fear when she approaches but there is much more to her than her confidence. She may not be the most easy going of people but she knows when to let her hair down and have fun. This was more or less a trait that had to be learned as it wasn't always easy to do such a thing. She's dropped the habit of categorizing people because not everyone can fit into the small amount that she used. She is still very willing to push herself to her limits to prove herself and her capabilities because she doesn't want to end up a disappointment.
One thing in particular about her is that she isn't always the most honest when it comes to her feelings even after becoming an adult. This includes how she feels about those around her especially those whom she has grown rather close to. Its not easy for her to show her appreciation and she'll stumble her way through a thank you or just come off as not grateful at all. She has a really funny way of showing she cares about people, which is usually revealed in the form of nagging. She wouldn't show nearly as much concern about someone's health if she didn't care about them. She's very much like this even when she ends up helping someone no matter who they may be; she'll act like it was a big bother to her. Despite all this denial, she is a girl who cares about those around her especially those that she has a bond with and will willingly do anything for them.
There is one other aspect that makes Ryoko who she is and that would be her temper. It is something that hasn't gone unnoticed within the Quincy. This mostly stemmed from the anger that she felt towards the hollow who killed her parents and the shinigami who didn't save them. It was certainly a lot easier to provoke her temper when she was younger and before she faced against her past. She may not be as easy to provoke into anger anymore but when her temper does flare it can still be just as volatile. Her temper has been compared to that of Pandora's Box being opened with pure pandemonium being released and she has been compared to that of a demon when she has been pissed off. This has lead to people being placed in the hospital but her flares are not nearly as bad as they once had been.

History: Ryoko was born to a pair of loving parents and into a rather simple life. This, however, was mainly for the first year of her life. Her parents were both born quincy and as such she had also been born as such. They had decided before their daughter was born that they didn't want her to grow up in the harsh environment that they had been raised in. They left in order to give their daughter a chance at normal life and that is exactly what she got as a baby.
Her parents leaving the hospital and their lives as quincies behind didn't leave them with very many options and so they had to depend on her father's income. Her mother wanted to stay home for at least the first couple years of Ryoko's life so that she wouldn't miss anything. It was rather tough on her parents but they still managed to smile so that they could keep their daughter happy. It was easy for babies to feed off the atmosphere around them and as such she had her moments when she was fussy especially around the first of the month.
Despite leaving their families behind, her parents had decided that if anything happened to them she would be sent to the hospital. They never really intended that this would ever happen but she found her way to her family among the quincies before long. This was only after her parents were killed by a hollow who attacked the family one night and her parents died trying to protect her. They were unfortunately very much out of practice as quincies and were preoccupied with keeping their daughter safe. She was sent to her family within the quincy compound after she was examined at their very hospital.
Her grandmother easily accepted Ryoko and with the help of her aunt began to raise her. It was obvious, however, after such a traumatizing experience that it had affected the one year old. At first, it would seem to them that she would never get over the things that she saw but she eventually grew out of it as time passed. It was easy for a child as young as her to forget the things that happened in the past. That did after awhile include missing her parents but that would always remain a part of her.
As she grew older, it became obvious that she was starting to pick up habits and traits that her aunt was known to have. Her temper, in particular, was the very thing that most people noticed she had very similar to her. However, her temper was on a different scale as her aunt's and after exploding she was giving the nickname of Pandora because it had felt as if Pandora's box had been opened. There wasn't much that anyone could do about her attitude and personality that started to develop especially since she was in line to be the next leader. Certain aspects of her personality were allowed to develop and as such she started to see herself as better than others.
Ryoko's training as a quincy began once she was old enough and she started to hone her abilities. This was definitely harder than she would have ever assumed it would be but that also had something to do with being one of the future leaders. Her aunt was never known for going easy on those she sparred against and she often sparred against her. It was because she wanted to get better and the best challenge for her turned out to be her aunt. She started helping with the fight against hollows when she was in middle school and usually went out to help her aunt.
When her aunt was named the nest leader of their little hub, she was proud to be named her successor but it had been a given after all. It was a bit after this time that her aunt threw dirt at her and told her about what had happened to her parents. It stung her pride greatly but it had been meant to knock her down a peg. She seemed to take it in stride but it did affect her for a few days. It wasn't like she had been lied to about her parents but no one had really explained what had happened to them either. This only seemed to increase her hatred towards hollows as well as Shinigami because they didn't try to save her parents.
Ryoko only seemed to grow worse the older she got and it was in her last year of high school that she was knocked down a few more pegs. It was while she was out with her lackey who with his sister came to Karakura from Germany so he could get stronger that she came upon her terror. It was a time of weakness from her or so her past self would claim as she fell before the monster that had killed her family as he taunted her. It took the bravery of her lackey who fought to protect her while telling her that she could beat the hollow. She was the strongest person he knew besides her aunt and he had seen her kill so many hollow and she wasn't the type of person to just let one get to her.
She eventually came back to her senses especially after seeing him get battered like he was and felt the urge to protect him as he had done for her. With his help, she defeated the hollow who killed her parents and tormented her subconscious. This resulted in her passing out but despite his own injuries her lackey brought her back to the hospital. It was from there that her aunt took over and healed them up. She is unaware that her lackey was upset and claimed that he wasn't able to protect her. If she knew about such idiocy she would have smacked him for it.
Ryoko had found someone outside her immediate family to be close to and very unlike her personality she went to thank him about helping her. It was then that she decided to change the way she was or at least mostly. She knew it was okay to let someone in and after the weight of the hollow was off of her shoulders she felt her anger dissipate. She was still upset with the shinigami who could have helped her parents but she didn't find herself nearly as angry and ready to blow so easily anymore.
The last time she blew up over something was when she found that her aunt had disappeared. It was after this explosion that she had to start to cope with her aunt being going but that was alright because she had people to comfort her. She wanted to make her aunt proud and wanted her to see her graduate from high school but she wasn't there for that. With her aunt gone, the leader position was hovering in the balance if only because they didn't think she was ready to take over just yet. She was just graduating and despite her attitude change she still had a lot to learn.
Ryoko went on to university after high school and the years after this mainly consisted of her studying hard to become a doctor and training her abilities to become stronger. She went away for medical school but she would come home ever week and that would be when she was training. It was during this time that her lackey was also going through the same processes as her and was being trained by the temporary leader at the time. Things went on like this until she was half way through medical school. It became difficult for her but she took everything with confident strides.
She finished her medical training upon receiving her medical license and returned home. This made things easier for the then 24 year old to balance everything out and she started working at the hospital that she was even familiar with. She didn't exactly stop her schooling, however, as she started classes so she can receive a PH.D but she takes these classes at a local university. For the last year, her life has consisted of her taking classes, performing her duties as a doctor, and her continued training. She may be rather confident in herself but she will never let up on her training as it could be life and death.

Powers & Abilities
Power Name: Quincy Arts
Weapon Name: Toukai no Eda (Bow of Destruction)
Description:
The bow is a sleek black and is about 75 centimeters long. It consists of a straight bend but curves into sharp ends in the opposite direction. The handle is a smooth curve in the opposite direction as well and there are purple jewels adorning the bow on either end.Abilities:Ya Haretsu (Arrow Explosion), Ryoko fires an arrow from her bow with a little of her reiatsu and once the arrow comes in contact with her enemy it explodes. This ability is similar to the kidou Shakkahou but is about half of one in destructive capability and it requires a single post cool down before she can use it again.
Ya no Danmaku (Barrage of Arrows), A single arrow is fired from her bow with a little of her reiatsu which splits into about 8 smaller arrows as it heads toward her enemy that will explode when they come in contact with her enemy. However the explosions of each individual arrow are cut down by about 75% of the original destructive capability that the Arrow Explosion is capable of.
Banzaiten Bakuha (Music Blast), She fires arrows from her bow with a little of reiatsu that causes the arrow to hum while soaring through the air and once it makes contact with her enemy it explodes with loud guitar-like strum. Upon contact with an enemy or directly near them, the strum will cause enough subtle vibrations in the air to make her enemy have muscle tremors resulting in difficulty performing certain tasks steadily for a short amount of time (Weapon Skill Reduced by 20 for 3 posts).
Daikoran Bunsho (Chaos Note), She fires arrows from her bow with a little of reiatsu that allows the arrow to send off a high pitch as it soars through the air and when it comes into contact with an enemy it explodes into a chorus of different pitches. Upon contact with an enemy or directly near them, the pitches will paralyze them for a short amount of time (1 post).
Any enemy that has a total of 20 more Reiatsu than her will experience a lesser effect of all of her attacks.
Passive Abilities: Right before she releases her bow she’ll quickly swipe over both of her ears to cover both of her eardrums with her reiatsu to keep her ears from receiving damage from her own attacks.
The hum or high pitch that results when Ryoko uses Banzaiten Bakuha and Daikoran Bunsho is meant to distract her enemies into wondering where the noise is coming from and hopefully the arrow will take them by surprise.
