Character Name: Makoto Kino
Gender: Female
Age and Date of Birth: 14-21 / December 5th

Used Canons: 90's Anime and Manga

Appearance: Makoto is most-easily identifiable by her height. She is the tallest of the Inner Senshi, standing at a towering 5'6". She has long, wavy brown hair that she normally keeps up in a ponytail. The ponytail holder she always uses has two green balls that are, in a sense, signature to her appearance. She has a good figure, but she also has very strong arms and legs. Her eyes are green, and she always wears pink rose earrings. When not in her school uniform, Makoto typically dresses for comfort. She wears turtlenecks, sweatpants, t-shirts, jeans, and other boyish articles of clothing. But when the time comes for her to dress up, Makoto goes all out. She is also always seen wearing pink rose earrings.
Personality: Although she was very introverted and intimidating at first, Makoto has opened up to her peers and become a very sociable, kind, gracious young woman. She is very dependable, and is always giving back to her friends. A selfless young woman, Makoto raised herself after the death of her parents, and there is no doubt she is making them proud. Although not very good in school, Makoto works her hardest and tries her best to get passing grades. She has a boyish personality, but Makoto is actually very girlish on the inside. She likes boys, and she acts like a typical mom. She's a neat freak, and likes for everything to be tidy before she can get any work done. She also looks up to Michiru and Haruka, dreaming to be as pretty as the former and as strong as the latter. Makoto never turns down a challenge, even when the odds are not in her favor. Her patience is not very high, for she gets easily agitated with things like video games. She is also very courageous, and will do absolutely anything to protect those she loves. Makoto dreams to one day own her own flower shop and cake bakery, and to fall in love with a handsome man. She is also afraid of airplanes. Makoto always follows her heart, and rarely listens to the voice of logic and reason inside her head.
Any Unique Abilities/Skills: Makoto is talented at lots of things, including cooking, sports, gardening, and ice skating. She has a very unique relationship with nature, as well. This relationship is particularly strong when it comes to thunderstorms and electricity.

History: A thousand years in the past, Makoto was the princess of Jupiter and one of the Moon princess's four guardians. She served as Sailor Jupiter, protecting her princess at all costs. When the princess began to fall in love with the prince of Earth, Makoto met Nephrite, one of the prince's shittenou. After meeting a few times previous, Makoto fell in love with Nephrite, and vice versa. Unfortunately, Nephrite's heart was taken over by darkness and he betrayed Makoto in a battle between the Earth and Moon. Makoto, the other senshi, and the princess were killed, and in an attempt to save their future, the queen of the Moon sent them all to a better future on Earth. There, Makoto was reincarnated as Makoto Kino of Earth.
When Makoto was a young girl, her parents died in an airline accident. Ever since then, Makoto lived on her own, taking care of herself. At the age of fourteen, she got the strange feeling that there was somewhere else she had to be, somewhere important. Following her heart, Makoto transferred to Juuban Municipal High School, which was where she first met Usagi Tsukino. Makoto was very tall and intimidating, so it wasn't long before rumors were made about her "expulsion" from her last school. Makoto was immediately made an outcast, but that changed when Usagi stumbled into her path. The smaller girl immediately fell in love with Makoto's cooking, and from that point on, the two became close friends. Usagi was the only one who ignored all of the rumors and saw Makoto for who she really was, and that was always something that Makoto treasured. Thanks to Usagi, she met the other senshi, Ami and Rei. That same day, Makoto was attacked by an evil youma from the Dark Kingdom. The attack revealed Makoto's hidden powers as Sailor Jupiter, and from that point on she fought alongside Usagi and the other girls as sailor senshi. She assisted the senshi in defeating countless enemies, saving the world and helping humanity one enemy at a time.
Other Noteworthy Facts: Makoto's blood type is O, and her star sign is Sagittarius. She loves cherry pie and home economics, but she hates biology.

Storyline Specific Information:

Metamorphosis - It is the thirtieth century, and Crystal Tokyo is well past established. Makoto is quite old, but her appearance and youth has been preserved due to the Silver Crystal. Makoto has matured by a great amount during this time, taking her role as guardian under great dedication and devoting less of her time to thinking about men and other foolish aspirations. Her job as protector of Neo Queen Serenity and the royal family is most important to her, and nothing else really catches her attention. Despite this newfound maturity, Makoto is still the same person deep down. She continues to cook often, and her old traits come back to the surface when alone with her friends. But in this RP, the peaceful era of Crystal Tokyo has been disrupted by the Black Moon Clan. The war has been going on for quite some time, and the final battle is fast approaching. When Neo Queen Serenity is killed, Makoto and the rest of the senshi are forced to find out how to cope without the one person who kept them all together. Not only that, but they have to find a way to defeat the Black Moon Clan without their queen, who always gave them hope and believed in them. Makoto will struggle with this, and it will be the hardest thing she has ever done.

My Little Pony: Love and Justice - Unknown to the Sailor Senshi, a portal into Equestria has opened in their world, and Chaos has made its way into another universe. Discord, sensing the disruption and being responsible for the portal opening in the first place, uses Luna to help him convince Sailor Moon in her dreams to help them. After hearing the news, the sailor senshi agree to help and are quickly transported to Equestia and turned into ponies. While the rest of her friends become unicorns or alicorns, Makoto is stuck as a regular pony without any way to channel her magic. Her struggle to find a way to fight in this new form will be a key point of development for her, and she swears to do her best to save Equestria from Chaos no matter what tries to hold her back.


Love and Spite - Makoto Blossom is a former attendee of Silver Academy who - along with her four closest friends and the rest of the student body - is being forced to attend the Verona Institute, along with the male students of the Rosethorn School. Growing up, Makoto has always lived with her parents, whose wealth comes with the price of constantly being gone from home. There was no loving motherly embrace after school, or help with homework from her father. But for Makoto, this was her normal, and she was content with the weekly Skype calls from her parents while they were gone. With all of her free time, Makoto choose to work off the stress of high school through working out, physical training, gardening, and baking. She won every single botany and baking contest at the Silver Academy, and always prepared lunches for her friends at school. 
The harsh clash of students causes a lot of tension within the Verona Institute that all comes to play in a battle for Student Council President. The loyal, strong, compassionate Makoto joins her friends in the battle, backing up Serenity against the opponents from Rosethorn. But along the way, Makoto may realize that there is more to her Rosethorn opponents than meets the eye.

Sole Survivor - Makoto Kino is living on her own in post-apocalyptic Japan, where most of society is enslaved by media entertainment and technology. Her parents died in the war, and ever since then, Makoto has been fending for herself. Surrounded by her media-obsessed peers, Makoto dropped out of school during her junior year and chose to instead focus on her own survival. She hates the media, the government, and the wealthy, and spends most of her time hunting for game and trading for money. Against her will, Makoto is drafted onto the entertainment game show Sole Survivor, where she will compete against a slough of other competitors for a million dollar prize. She knows that once you're "invited," there's no way out, so Makoto decides to try her best and at least win the contest. With the prize money, she could really make some changes in her life and the lives of others. But on the island, she meets and allies with Ami Mizuno, an intelligent young girl who teaches Makoto that maybe being alone in this world isn't so ideal after all, and perhaps there's more to being a survivor than she ever thought possible.

RP Sample: It was strange - the feeling of heartbreak.

Makoto should have been used to it by now. She had had her heart broken by men all her life, whether it was her father for leaving her, or her countless boyfriends for choosing another girl over her. And yet, that painful feeling got her every single time. It was almost like someone was yanking her heart out of her body and squeezing it until it turned to nothing but dust. It hurt so much more with every time it happened.

So why was Makoto always opening herself up to men?

There were more important things to life than love, right? Of course there was - but how come she could never find it?

As she sat in the gazebo where her last boyfriend had just broken up with her, frustrated tears began to form in Makoto's eyes. She was so tired of others using her and betraying her. It seemed that feeling of pain was destined to follow her around forever. She needed to get out of here, to leave this place as soon as possible and go somewhere new.

It was raining. She couldn't run through the rain, could she? Who was she kidding - she loved the rain. She loved the sound of thunder rumbling above her; the sight of lightning crackling across the sky. Storms were one of nature's many great creations.

As she gazed up at the lightning-infused sky, Makoto felt a strange sense of longing. There was somewhere she had to be - somewhere more important than love.

There was something she had to do.

She watched as another flash of lightning lit up above her, and her eyes pictured its path in her mind.

"North," she whispered, her eyes drifting towards the direction the lightning had pointed. That was where she would go.

And so, determined and ready for a new dawn, Makoto stood and began to walk home through the rain.

This one's ready!

I'm sorry for this delayed reply! Approved.

(Side note: If it doesn't take too much of your time, could you mention that Makoto is lead by her heart rather than logic in most cases, and that her connection to nature is strongest to thunderstorms and electricity? Thank you! )

Info added! Thank you!

SSI and Source field added!

Could you provide a small description (or an image) of Makoto's looks as a pony? =) Thank you!
