Mental Information
Personality: Torri is a very silent character. She comes off as 'the silent girl in the back', the one who shoots glares at anyone who looks her way. Or, that's what she gives off. Torri comes off as a very rough, ignorant, aggressive girl, when in turn that's all she knows how to be. She, when with the right group, is still silent, but more at ease. She will very RARELY smile, and can talk a lot if you get her going. She enjoys to talk about facts and history, learning is something she enjoys, but she hates doing what people want her to. IE. her parents wanted her to learn and do good, so she did the opposite. She has an unhealthy obsession to get on peoples bad sides, but she doesn't always mean it.
Torri likes to learn about people, so long as they don't seek attention. She loves to study things, and can be a very curious and listening character if you have something to share. She also has a secret desire to dress and be more girly.. but she tries to hide it. She dresses like a guy to keep herself protected, but she always, always wanted to be a skirt and frill girl..
Mentality: Torri has some anger issues, and was told by a school counselor she was a sadist, and enjoyed causing mental and physical pain to those around her. She doesn't really care so long as she's kept entertained.
Ideal:
"Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing."
"Be not angry that you cannot make others as you wish them to be, since you cannot make yourself as you wish to be."
"Appearances aren't everything."
"If you have something to say, say it with your fists."
Belief: She believes the world was a mistake, and that it wasn't created by anything or one of high power.
Physical Information
Build: She has a curvy female frame, with an average C cup bust. Her legs and arms are toned due to her hobby of fighting, and her past addiction for exercise and weight lifting.

Description:
Torri has a toned and curvy female body. She stands at 5''8 and weights 160lbs.
Torri has waist length pale brown hair, cut and layered by herself. She has bangs that almost fully hide her piercing blue eyes. Her cheeks have some freckles, along with a bandage or so from her aggressive fighting patterns.
Despite having a beautiful female form, Torri tends to hide herself under baggy male clothing. Her residence in Germany is very unsafe, and for so she is constantly disguising herself as a male to get around without being mugged and raped. She has little to no female attire, and always dresses like a tomboy, despite having a secret desire to dress more girly, if only it'd be safe for her to dress as so.

Fighting Information
Fighting Style: Irrational instincts -- she just fights, doesn't think it through
Years Practiced: She's been fighting since elementary school
Description of style: Torri just goes for the adrenaline of fighting. She doesn't follow a style, she makes her own. She normally uses low and high kicks, as her legs and arms are her strong point. Punching and kicking is what she does, similar to kick-boxing if needing a reference.
Torri doesn't follow a pattern, or play fair. She was brought up never playing fair, as nobody stuck to rules where she was. She would take any opening an opponent gave, be it a trap or not, she'd dive for it. She doesn't think when fighting, she just does what she wants, which is her weakness. She has a very good body, good strength and reflexes. She is good at blocking and dodging, when she's paying attention.
History Information
History:
Torri was born into a very poor family in Germany. Her mother and father were able to afford and keep her for nearly two years, before they had to give her up for adoption.
Her mother was British and her father German. Her mother had been living in Germany for many years, and knew the language well. Torri was blessed with her mothers female beauty along with her freckles, and her father's eyes and hair color.
Throughout her childhood Torri grew up in an orphanage where she had lots of friends. However, she was constantly going in and out of foster homes, and found herself always coming back to miss a friend or so who had previously been adopted. Torri hated the idea of 'having replacement parents' and always seemed to act up and rebel when with anyone. She wasn't normally a troublemaker, she just wanted her biological parents back, but they never came for her.
Torri grew into a teen, and was finally accepted into a family for longer than 5 months. She was with this family from 13 till her present age of 17, but the aura of the family is always heated.
Torri was constantly fighting. Her current parentals wanted Torri to be a perfect, A+ girl, but she hated the pressure of being told how to live and be. She rebelled and tried to 'act dumb' in which her school transferred her to an 'Alternative' schooling, thinking she had anger and depression problems. Her foster parents were not pleased.
Although, that was just the start of her problems. It all started at the school, and continued for weeks. It was awkward at first, but from time to time she got a feeling. Being followed? Becoming more aware of the situation, she'd confirm that it was indeed a stalker. She had been followed around by a rather tall, skinny blond boy. One whom she had never spoke too, but became the object of his attention. Things just seemed to pile upon each other.
Torri, now at a school for thugs, druggies and dropouts, decided now was her best chance to fight, as that's all most the students did.
Previously her fights were always broken up, but here she fought a lot more, mostly with the males, and got a lot of her stressed carried out via so. The adrenaline rush of the fighting is what kept her at peace, which is why she was constantly picking fights, even if warned, scolded, and called on. Her parents refused to let her 'have her way' and go back to the orphanage, as she only had a few months more before her 18th birthday where they, the orphanage, would no longer accept her.
Even being intelligent, and having a decent focus, she had no motivation to pass this 'school', and instead found being a troublemaker and bad student suit her more.
Torri however had one person she trusted. 'ZeRo'. Her online boyfriend. She had talked to him on the internet since she was 14, and the two had been together since. When her parents would force her off the computer, she'd rebel to get her way. Her parents, fed up with her misbehaving at school, home, and 'dating online', exploded and told her if she was going to be that way to just move out.
And Torri took that into account.
Her parents, once finding emails from ZeRo, knew she was engaging in an online relationship, and they strongly disapproved. They told her he could be a bad guy, wanting to hurt and rape her, or be an old pedophile, but Torri never listened. She liked him a lot, and knew he'd never lie to her.
A week after her parents gave her the idea to move out, she took money from her savings(stolen from her enemies) she packed her bags, her bass, painting materials, some clothing and her teddy, and took off on the earliest plane to California, Long beach, where ZeRo lived.
She left her parents a farewell note, and her boyfriend was aware she was coming to stay with him..
but it didn't go well.
Torri arrived in California and only noticed then she hadn't properly learned English. Her boyfriend had been part German, and they barely spoke to one another in English. Now in the United States she forgot English was their main language, and she hadn't learned enough to get her around as easily as she'd hoped. Torri had been studying it some, as she once had the idea to learn English, travel to Canada and attend an actual school/college independently from her 'family'. However, she had gotten distracted from that thought, and hadn't learned enough English to survive. She knew the basics, but her thick accent and lack of studying left her quite lost, confused, scared, and lonely in the states.
And that was just the beginning of her problems.
Torri found her boyfriend, meeting him for the first time, and moved in with him. She loved him, and he loved her, or so she thought.
A few days in she learned her parents had been right.. and he was a horrible, evil, bastard of a man. He abused Torri a lot, and he got to her as she was a fool to let her guard down enough to let him get hits on her. She was devastated, but knew it wasn't going to get better. He treated her like shit, tried to constantly rape her, hit her, both physically and verbally, and never once made her smile. The love, the man she fell for, was a lie. Her parents had been right to warn her..
Torri eventually had enough. She packed her things while he slept and took off out the door. She checked her money, wanting a flight back home, but she didn't have enough. She had enough to get her there to the states and a little more, but not enough to bring her back home to Germany.
Now on the streets, homeless and hurt, the girl wandered, barely knowing the language and having nobody else to turn to. She was sad, confused, pissed off, and just downright hurt. Torri thought her life was bad before, but now she was stuck in Long beach, California, the United States, with not enough money to live on, and barely the vocabulary to ask for help. What had she gotten herself into..
However, after thinking everything had gone down the drain, a twist of events occurred and Torri met Addie, a girl whom helped her more than she expected, also being of Torri's native culture. The two became friends, roommates, and when the time came they even moved together, to San Diego, California. They were a pair.. like mother and daughter.
Addie especially helped Torri to learn English, which even with a thick accent is helpful to her life here.
