The Real Ronin
**This page may take a moment to load**
Role: Roanna Tsuyomi, Leader of the Ronin Girls.
History: Look, it's ME! LOL! I came up with Roanna back when Ronin Warriors was first playing on TV. Back then she was Roanna Staley, and today she is Roanna Tsuyomi. At one time, it was just Roanna and her two sisters, Ellena and Xenia, who were in the Ronin Girl group. Then, Cyann joined. Neither of those three have maintained the Ronin tradition though.
In ninth grade, I met an Anime obsessed girl who became my best friend and "partner-in-crime". She joined the Ronin and we began to write what is refered to as the "first batch" of Ronin stories. Then, one day in my French class, I walked by someone's desk and saw Anime pictures in their binder! This girl became the third of the Ronin Girls. My friend from Biology (who was also in my French class that year), became the fourth Ronin. And finally, I met the fifth member through the third member.
Through 3 years we five have struggled with many things, and all this time Roanna has changed. She's gone from a silly, hot-tempered 16 year old, to a semi-serious, hot-tempered 23 year old. From normal looking, to totally out-of-the-ordinary (thanks to my creative art skills. LOL!). But throughout everything, some things have remained. She still has brown eyes, brown hair, stands 5'10" tall, bears both the Armors of TigerFire and Friendship, and has a tiger named Blue Streak. Although she no longer has Rowen as a love interest, she still yearns for love, friendship, and sushi.
Roanna is the leader of the Ronin Girls because I'm the one who pulled it all together.
Other Stuff: Well, I like the colors blue, black, and white. I live at home still, with my mom, my dad, my brother, and my dog. My boyfriend is stationed in Seattle at the moment, but I miss him and love him very much. I like watching anime, working on my web-sites, drawing, writing stories, traveling, and hanging out with my friends.
This page is dedicated to Nichole, Kim, Sara, Cheryl, Kevin, Emi, Quinn, and all my other friends! Without your love and support, it never would've been possible! Thank you so much!
Role: Haruka Kyokuru, Second of the Ronin Girls.
History: When Nichole heard that there was a girl out there who was just as obsessed with Ronin Warriors as she was, she hardly believed it. And then she met me. ^_^
Nichole, an avid fan of Anime, quickly taught me everything there was to know about Ronin Warriors/Samurai Troopers. The next thing we both knew, we were best friends, Type-Pals, partners-in-crime, and sisters. We worked hard on the first batch of stories, which included what came to be nick-named "The Type-Pals Story". We developed the character of Haruka (then the sister of Sage) into something wonderful...
And then I had to go and start everything over...
All things aside though, I still consider Nichole to be my very best friend. She taught me how to search for things on-line, and even helped teach me to draw. We've been through so much together.. camping trips, birthday parties, and even deaths.
Other Stuff: Nichole likes J-pop, Techno music, and generally being weird. ;) Her favorite animes include Sailor Moon and Ronin Warriors. She's a very open person, and isn't afraid to tell someone off (she's done that to me quite a few times! LOL! j/k). Unfortunately, we've drifted apart somewhat over the past few months, but we still can talk when we need to.
Role: Kryss Lynn, Third of the Ronin Girls.
History: This is the girl I met in French class! Kryss Lynn has gone from being a shy love interest for Ryo, to a strong willed Ronin with a lot of mental problems! She's the one who lent me lots of anime so I could build on my obsession, and yet another person who has helped teach me to draw. Sure, the two of us fight sometimes, but what two people don't? Besides, our fights usually consist of story plots and character designs. ^_^;
Kim is really the reason that I met my boyfriend. Had I never started talking to her in French Class, I wouldn't be writing this long schpeel about her right now. Seriously though, Kim's one of my best friends (even if she does think I'm stupid sometimes).
Other Stuff: Kim likes J-pop (Aikawa Nanase and Two-Mix to name a few), Slayers, Sailor Moon, Fushigi Yugi, and lots of other anime that has fled my mind at the moment! (Stupid Jet Lag..) Her favorite colors are purple-blue and regular purple. She also likes Drawing, writing stories, and buying new anime. ^_^
Role: Bianka Karr, fourth of the Ronin Girls.
History: Sara met me because we sat next to each other in Biology Class in Ninth Grade. When I started writing Ronin stories again, I helped her make up a character. Sara is a quiet and wonderful person, the kind that can really surprise you when they say something off-the-wall, so we made Bianka as a strong willed and fiesty young girl with enough spunk to take on the world. Kim and I began a long quest to make Sara into an Anime freak, and we've succeeded! One night, Sara borrowed one of my Ronin Warrior tapes and stayed up late watching it, but we had Final Exams the next day! ^_^ Talk about devotion!
Other Stuff: Sara likes Anime, J-pop, and animals. She just recently got her driver's liscense (that makes 3 Ronin Girls with the ability to drive.. -_-;)
Role: Celes Tanthas, fifth of the Ronin Girls.
History: Cheryl "made up" Celes when I asked her to be a member of the team. Celes was already a role-playing character, so we just made her stats fit in with our needs, and we went from there! We've had to do quite a few changes though with the new stories. I'm running out of stuff to say... ^_^;
Other Stuff: Cheryl likes J-pop, watching Anime (mainly stuff like Macross), and writing stories. She's the only other Ronin Girl who participates in my Message Board Story.
