*Updated but shortened, hehe.*

Ok. This is the first time I've ever joined an official contest in DA. I'm kinda nervous but excited at the same time, hehehe. Now let's get going.

I designed this chara based on the words popped in my mind. Ponytails, jackets and... personality. So here she is: Nikita.

Characteristics:

Nikita (prefers calling herself Niki) is an energetic character.
Though a bit clumsy and bit rude, Niki is a caring one for her friends.
She can use Badges and her 2 most favorite (and also happened to be 2 of the most powerful yet unknown)
are located (or should I say... pinned) on her jacket as buttons in disguise to prevent it from being stolen, making herself
something of a guardian for it until the rightful receiver arrives (not without testing them of course).

Niki easily gets upset when her hair is untied because it takes her long to set it up.
And when her hair gets untied, gets upset (and has low HP), she enters in a UPSET MODE state.

In UPSET MODE:

*Niki's speech pattern changes from a normal one to an honoriffic one.

*Niki doesn't call herself Niki. She names herself Nita as if she was a different person.

*<s>Niki's</s> Nita's fighting abilities like using Badges are greatly enhanced from 2x-8x. But one downside though,
that depends on her luck. Too bad, she kinda having a tough LUCK on her stats so if you want to make good use
of her UPSET MODE, equip her with luck enhancing items. You won't regret having her in your party
