Cardcaptor Kairi: Chronicle of the Midnight Sun

Chapter 0: Prologue-Character Profiles and a History Lesson

(Really) Brief History:

The world that the story begins on is entitled Laevateinn, one world among many that has become recently accessible by way of the Gummi Ship. This world, and the town of Destiny Islands in particular, is famously known for the climactic battle between that world's famous sorcerer Ansem, apprentice to the great Master Yen Sid, and the supposed threat to the entire galaxy, Clow Reed. Clow Reed was said to have created roughly 52 demons, all with the intention of releasing the ultimate army of darkness, the Heartless.

He was successful in opening the pathway to where they resided, a dimension dubbed Kingdom Hearts. The Heartless were a rare breed of creatures that multiplied quickly by stealing the hearts of others and turning those hearts into more Heartless. Clow Reed managed to create a Heartless breeding machine and used it create different varieties of Heartless, even stronger and more dangerous than the originals.

Eventually Ansem had developed his powers enough to strike the first blow against Reed, attempting to trap him in the darkness with one of his many forbidden spells. The spell failed to connect however, and the effects of the spell caused the entire area of Traverse Isle to be cast into perpetual nightfall, even to this day.

The battle was said to be one of the greatest conflicts between the Light (Ansem), and the Dark (Reed), each having to resort to their strongest and most costly of spells. In the end Ansem sacrificed himself to save the world from the darkness and destroyed Clow Reed and his creations. The Heartless survived however, and managed to spread to other worlds all across the galaxy, their reasons understood only to the leaders of specific worlds, King Mickey of Disney Castle being one of the most well-known.

The King is rumored to hold one of the legendary Keyblades of Destiny, the weapon itself known for its strength, purity, and connection to the "key" of Kingdom Hearts. The Key is also fabled to be able to save worlds from certain destruction under the onslaught of Darkness. The King is also famously-known for the opening of the Celestial Radiant Garden Academy. This school is best-known for embracing the education of all types of special abilities, such as: magic abilities, defensive abilities, different styles of assault abilities, various sword techniques, ninjutsu, taijutsu, alchemy, and other special/unique battle styles. The choice is up to the student, and the student is expected to keep up with these studies alongside their regular classes, which the Academy also holds.

Destiny Islands

A group of islands off the coast of Twilight Town. Home to large amounts of middle and higher class families. It is a popular summer vacation spot, and is home to an annual Blitz Ball tournament.

Radiant Garden

A large and well known area mostly famous for its ancient ruins, the Celestial Radiant Garden Academy, and home of the sorcerer Ansem's castle, Hollow Bastion.

Traverse Town

Town mostly known for being permanently trapped in perpetual nightfall, due in total part to the aftereffects of Ansem's attack spell directed at Clow Reed. The town is mostly known to the youth of today as the party capital of that world.

Twilight Town

A large and romantic burg placed on the top of an enormous hill. Much like its sister town Traverse Town, Twilight Town was also affected by Ansem's forbidden spell. Taking a subway ride from Traverse Town is the only non-magical way to reach Twilight Town. It is seen as one of the most romantic areas on that world, mostly due to the fact that the entire town is bathed in eternally in twilight, Sunset Hill being one of the most popular areas.

Organization 13

Group of Senior level students or Post-graduate Adult members of Radiant Garden's Defense Society (under normal circumstances; members #6, #9, and #13 are all Juniors). Group created by King Mickey to maintain order and peace throughout the world. They are also dispatched to deal with matters of magical phenomena. Once inducted into the group, the newest members name is changed for their own privacy, safety, and to show their connection to the group. The letters in that person's name are rearranged and the letter x is added. Each member is given special privileges, which they themselves are expected to keep secret from all those who aren't members of the Organization.

Not much is known about her other than the fact that she is accepted by just about everyone at the Academy. The only one who doesn't seem to enjoy her presence is Sephiroth Jenova, since he seems to blame her for Cloud's irreversibly depressed mood. Yuffie sees her as a symbol of Peace and Prosperity.

Defensive Style: Dark Shielding Magic

Distant and cold to all but his closest friends, honest but tactful, excels at all manner of sports, and known to many as a "Heart Breaker." Loves to party and let loose with his hormones, never passes up a chance to show off his abilities or spar with Sora. Riku shares a life-long connection to Sora and can't imagine life without him due to the fact that Sora helped him out of his depression stage at age fifteen. He was against having Kairi join their group in the beginning, but soon came to accept her, and even form a crush on her, along with the realization of his feelings for someone else.

He continuously sparred with Sora for Kairi's attention, and continues to, even though they are now an item. He appears to accept their relationship openly, even though he continues to interrupt them at very inopportune times (i.e. kissing, make-out sessions, or otherwise spending time with each other). He has also begun to show interest in Kairi's famous cousin Yoko Kirosake.

His father Daisuke was the one who suggested he attend the Academy, while his mother Lucy was just happy that he would still be with Sora who would attend the following year. Riku was revealed to be a Keyblade Wielder in his Sophmore year, and thus has two years of experience with the Keyblade to Sora's one.

Yoko Kirosake

Age: 18

Eye Color: Dark Pink

Weight: 129 lbs.

Height: 6 ft.

Room #: 101 / Boards alone

Abilities:

Magical Preference: Combines Dark magic with 4 in. long Kunai

knives

Defensive Style: Uses Stealth and Speed to evade attacks

Trusting, caring, and a full fledged party animal, Yoko is a person who knows how to have a good time. She was formerly a cutter, starting when her old boyfriend was murdered by his jealous ex-. Yoko was found washed up on a beach by a seedy-looking fisherman in a similar fashion to Kairi, although instead of being found in the Destiny Island area, she was discovered on the beach of Twilight Town. Shortly after her cutting phase she found a safer escape in music, forming the now infamous band known as Sake'.

She became the lead singer with her friends Hajiki Cashwen (base), Rumina Leyloan (drums), and Xander Soryu (guitar). She found out about the existence of someone else who was also found on a beach in the same manner she was at about the same time, and after seeing an image in an old newspaper, realized that she recognized her. They came to believe that they were cousins, and have remained close ever since. She has taken a liking to one of Kairi's best friends, Riku Seoshi, and has a feeling that he is also interested.

She has the ability to sense things before they happen, normally in the form of prophetic dreams. She prefers to use the stealthy approach in and outside of battle which, although not intentional, has led her to become somewhat of an idol to Yuffie Kisagari, who is striving to increase her ninja abilities. She loves to play Truth-or-Dare to pass the time in any situation, dull or otherwise.

Raijin Showron

Defensive Style: N/A

Characteristics: The muscle of Seifer's team known as the Radiant Garden Disciplinary Committee. Not the brightest member of the group. They spend most of the time picking on Hayner's group. Also the least hostile member of the group, which is why he has no problems bunking with Hayner, or befriending him. He feels much less important than Fujin. He has the severely aggravating habit of ending his sentences in "y'know." Most people just call him Rai.

(Junior level students (ages: 17-18)

Yuffie Kisagari

Eye Color: Dark Purple

Weight: 127 lbs.

Height: 5 ft. 11 in.

Room #: 161 / Boards with Aerith Gainsborough

Hair Qualities:

Color: Jet Black

Style: Chin length, same as Yoko's / she'll wear a head band

every once in a while

Abilities:

Attack Style: Uses many Shurikens

Magical Preference: Uses her small amount of magic to

increase the size and power of her

Shurikens

Defensive Style: Uses her newly found wind-based abilities

Characteristics: The most hyperactive Junior at the Academy, competing with the Sophomore level Selphie Tilmitt for most energetic student at the Academy (quite possibly that entire world). She was coldly turned down when she had asked Senior level student Squall Leonhart out (he apparently had feelings for another Senior known as Rinoa Heartily).

Her roommate Aerith Gainsborough had just went through a break-up with her boyfriend, so they both looked to each other for support. Although she greatly admires Yoko Kirosake's abilities and party skills, she prefers to hang out with Yoko's cousin Kairi Miyama, whom she considers one of her best-friends. She greatly despises Tifa Lockhart for her smug superiority and Rinoa Heartily for her beauty.

Sora Airheart

Eye Color: Sapphire Blue

Weight: 143 lbs.

Height: 5 ft. 11 in.

Room #: 206 / Boards with Riku Seoshi

Hair Qualities:

Color: Golden-Brown

Style: Thick, Soft, and Durable Spikes (Point in every direction)

Abilities:

Attack Style: Uses Keyblade

Magical Preference: Well rounded / Uses all forms of magic

Uses Darkness only when in combination with Riku Seoshi

Defensive Style: Defensive magic

Playful, naïve, kind, and has a strong sense of justice. He does his best to always beat Riku in any form of competition he's challenged at, and always makes time to hang out with Riku and Kairi. Sora Airheart has lived his entire life on the Destiny Islands alongside his mother Layla Airheart, and father Sky Airheart. They have been longtime friends with the Seoshi family, consisting of the father Daisuke Seoshi, the mother Lucy Seoshi, and their only son Riku Seoshi.

They have remained best friends since birth, and when the discovery of Kairi Miyama came about, they were the first to discover her, and add her to their team later on. Both Sora and Kairi are currently dating, a fact that did not surprise their friends at all they say. Sora has recently been discovered to be one of the chosen Keyblade wielders, much like Riku Seoshi, Roxas Sagura, and King Mickey himself.

Those chosen by the Keyblade are expected to attend classes with the King himself, train in order to fulfill his duties as a Knight of Destiny, and save worlds from the Dark.

Kairi Miyama

Eye Color: Dark Violet

Weight: 121 lbs.

Height: 5 ft. 9 in.

Room #: 174 / Boards alone

Hair Qualities:

Color: Deep Red

Style: Long hair that reaches down to her lower back

(Normally wears hair down/changes depending on mood)

Abilities: Unknown

Attack Style: N/A

Magical Preference: N/A

Defensive Style: N/A

Responsible, direct, envious at times, and loves to sing (mostly in private). She can be playful, shy, and unexpressive except through singing. Kairi was discovered by Sora and then Riku after having washed up on their play island when she was four. Kairi doesn't completely enjoy her foster-parent's presence; as a matter of fact she can't stand to live with them.

She feels that her foster-parents, Arthur and Nayomi Bakudan, don't understand her, nor does she feel that they really care about her anyway. She discovered her only living relative before her thirteenth birthday, a cousin named Yoko Kirosake, who happened to be the famous lead singer of the band Sake'. Yoko is the only real family that Kairi has, and is the only connection to Kairi's past (although she doesn't remember much herself).

Thus Kairi talks with her as much as possible; the same can be said of Yoko. Kairi entered Celestial Radiant Garden Academy in order to leave her "pathetic excuses for parents" behind (Her parents didn't pay for her tuition like Riku and Sora. She was only able to get in based on her overall high grade point average). Much to her delight, her cousin Yoko is also attending and stays in constant communication with her, while trying to avoid being "attacked" by paparazzi and students alike.

Yoko seems to have taken a liking to Riku, as has Riku more-or-less. For these reasons Kairi and Yoko are not able to visually see each other as much as they would like. Not long after starting her Junior year, which she is currently in the middle of, did Kairi and Sora finally develop a relationship, to which she couldn't be happier. Kairi's life is still far from pleasant however, as her secret, which is known only to Sora, Riku, Ollete Niwa, Yoko, and Roxas Sagura and Namine Uzumaki (both by accident), could easily have her expelled should anyone find out.

The secret being that Kairi doesn't appear to possess any type of magical abilities what-so-ever. She does however have an abnormally high amount of good luck, although not many notice it or put much thought into it, nor does she. Since a certain degree of magic is required to attend this school, Kairi has made it a habit to purchase, carry, and use a newly created product called Mystic Crystals (supplied by Riku and his familiy / Riku's family doesn't know what Riku uses them for or who he gives them to when they send them to him).

They are roughly the size of a quarter, are diamond in shape, and are pearl white in color. These objects allow people to use magic trough them. Take for example; Kairi needs to perform a fire spell. She, not appearing to have any magic, need only hide the crystal on her person and cast the spell. The crystal works by giving off a special type of magic that can be substituted in place of the owner's magic.

The only two catches being that a typical Mystic Crystal has only enough magic to cast roughly twelve level one spells (ex. fire, thunder, blizzard), six level two spells (ex. fira, thundara, and blizzara), three level three spells which is the highest most people can go (ex. firaga, thundaga, and blizzaga), and one level four spell which is rare for many people who aren't experts or highly trained individuals to conjure (ex. firagun, thundagun, and blizzagun), and that the crystal itself has to be touching the owner's skin in order to be activated

Roxas Sagura (a.k.a. #13)

Eye Color: Light Blue

Weight: 140

Height: 5 ft. 11

Room #: 237 / Boards with Axel Sark

Color: Dark Blonde

Style: Thin, Soft, but Solid Spikes (Point in every direction)

Abilities:

Attack Style: Uses Two Keyblades

Magical Preference: Uses Keyblade with Dark and Light

attributes: Entitled Oblivion and Sanctuary

Defensive Style: Counters with Keyblades

Known by his friends and teammates to be somewhat "angsty." Loves to take the scenic route to any destination as an excuse to use his skateboard. Currently harbors feelings for Namine' Uzumaki. He is well-known for being one of the only three Keyblade wielders on campus. He was accepted into the prestigious group known as Organization 13 as the Thirteenth member in his Sophomore year mostly due to the fact that he was found able to wield not just one mystic Keyblade, but two.

Due to his impressive standings he has been able to acquire friends from most social groups, but has also formed a rival out of Seifer Almansy and his gang. Hates being reminded that he isn't yet able to successfully teleport like his Organization 13 superiors. Is one of the few friends of Demyx Mason due to Demyx's feelings of inferiority (no doubt made worse by superiors such as Larxene Rossetti and Vexen Femino).

Namine' Uzumaki

Eye Color: Dark Blue

Weight: 112 lbs.

Height: 5 ft. 9 in.

Room #: 189 / Boards with Olette Niwa

Hair Qualities:

Color: Light Blonde

Style: Allows hair to flow down to the middle of her back

Abilities: Memory Manipulation and Alteration

Attack Style: Biological Warfare

Magical Preference: Energy projectiles

Defensive Style: Uses people's memories against them

Upon entering the academy, she was seen as an emotionless mind witch. Things haven't changed much since the start of her Junior year. She has been recognized as one of the most powerful of the Academy's students, especially since her unique and unstable ability is completely under her own control. Her proper demeanor shines light on her intensely high class life style, and strict upbringing. She has currently begun to develop romantic feelings for Roxas Sagura.

Only a few of her closest friends are able to see through her frosty exterior. Because dorm rooms are permanently chosen (and can only be reassigned by filling out an extensive Complaint sheet) Olette seems to know Namine' better than anyone else. She is almost never seen without a notebook on her person; she uses it to draw just about everything she deems as "an interesting sight."

Olette Niwa

Eye Color: Green

Weight: 133 lbs.

Height: 5 ft. 10 in.

Room #: 189 / Boards with Namine' Uzumaki

lets the rest flow down.

Doesn't condone the use of any dark magic. Clashes constantly with Hayner Cuerios but secretly discovered feelings for him. Her best girlfriends are Namine' and Kairi.

Hayner Cuerios

Weight: 153 lbs.

Height: 6 ft.

Room #: 299 / Boards with Raijin Showron

Color: Brown/Blonde

Style: Keeps hair length long (reaches to his chin). Gels all of his hair back.

Abilities:

Attack Style: Uses a Samurai sword; mostly to impress girls

Magical Preference: N/A

Defensive Style: Uses offense as Defense

Characteristics: Seen as a troubled teen, only his friends know

the true him. Has a problem maintaining his temper, and usually winds up taking it out on Pence. Based on Olette's opinion, his is "completely unromantic." He tries to impress as many girls as he can, mostly to try and sleep with them. Only Olette and Roxas can keep him calm.

Pence Gensey

Eye Color: Dark Orange

Weight: 178 lbs.

Height: 5 ft. 9 in.

Room #: 278 / Boards with Demyx Bellnase

Attack Style: Uses the minute amounts of alchemy/magic from

both sides of his family to turn any camera based

object into a weapon

Magical Preference: Only uses magic to transform his cameras

Defensive Style: N/A

Characteristics: Easy-going and always laid back. Doesn't seem

to worry about much since he tends to solve most of his problems abnormally quickly. Usually the one who get's stuck going with Olette shopping when Namine', Kairi, Yuffie, or Yoko can't go.

Finds dealing with Hayner's attitude a little overwhelming. Being roommates with Demyx has given him more confidence about himself, and vice-versa. They were able to relate with each-other quite well when they first met due to their odd weaponry.

Height: 5 ft. 8 in.

Characteristics: The brains of the Radiant Garden Disciplinary

Committee. She is one of the most cunning students at the Academy and lends her talents to Seifer's team, following his orders without question. She was able to quickly find a friend in her roommate Paine, member of a group her friends Rikku and Yuna made up at a young age (Tidus has also joined in when he and Yuna began going out).

She has the odd tendency of hardly ever talking. When she does speak, it is never more than three words. She doesn't believe in wasting effort, including using unnecessary words. Most people just call her Fuu.
