Alice:[/b]
Musical / Instrument Alice:[/b]
Her alice has two different abilities, one that is passive, and one that is active.
The passive nature of her alice allows her to learn musical instruments in completely abnormal speeds. Learning the guitar make take years for some, while for Angela, it will only take a few days, or maybe even a few hours. The more Angela practices with that said instrument, the quicker she gets to mastering it. To this day, she has learned over 10 instruments with this passive nature of her alice.
The active nature would be the fact that she can also music to deal a form of damage. Whenever Angela feels like employing the ability, she can enhance her music to have small enchantments. Depending on the tone and theme of the music that she plays, a random effect will be put into use to those that hear it. However, her alice can be very quick to avoid. If the people hearing the music closes their ears, or manages to cut the sound off completely, then her alice won't have any effect. Deaf people are automatically immune to her alice.
Happy Songs: Simply gets rid of a person's depressed state, and cheers them up really quickly
Lullabies: Uses her voice and skills in a instrument to lull her audience to sleep.
Melancholy Songs: An extremely hard ability that actually damages the person hearing her song mentally, usually rendering them insane for a few minutes, or even hours.
Personality:[/b]
Smart, wise, kind, and just plain simple is what defines Angela Aki. She's a kind girl, often greeting strangers with a smile, or even a simple wave of hello. However, she also tends to be optimistic around strangers, and views every new stranger as a potential new friend. For reasons kept to herself, the woman likes to treat everyone with respect, whether they be strangers, friends, or maybe sometimes her complete enemy. Occasionally, she may ignore someone if they annoy her, but this is what makes Angela a human being.
Respect, is a big word that Angela highly values, and will always retain with her even in the most awkward of situations. Since she's a human being, Angela herself is more then smart enough to put her blind rage of hatred towards her enemies first. Her hatred for a person may usually be over powered by her respect, she respects those that deserve it, even if they can be a complete jerk to her.
Angela also has a human given that has been highly expanded upon, and that gift is called kindness. Being a very kind young woman, she usually helps those in need, and constantly puts herself in situations when people, or herself may be in dire danger. In short, she might be considered a humanitarian among humanitarians. Because of this, people tend to view her as being too kind, as she can easily forgive those whom have even harmed her physically (to a certain degree).
On her intelligence, Angela is also a very wise person with philosophies in her head that have long been forgotten. Instead of using brute force in a conflict, she tends to her her smarts and logic to get out of a fight. Despite her large intellectual wisdom, she is a very humble person in her own right. She doesn't brag about her abilities, nor does she belittle those for something they can't do.
...As a human being, even she can have a bad side to her personality. Although not necessarily evil, Angela can also tend to be a bit mischievous, and might join people in pranking another person, as long as it does not hurt them in any way. In the end, Angela is a simply kind, humble, and wise woman that respects everyone she meets.

Appearance:[/b]
A woman of beauty, is what can be described of Angela. Being from a place where light skin is common, Angela has her whole body enveloped in a texture of pale, but very creamy and soft skin that many humans hope, but rarely achieve. Perhaps one of the unique features would be her face. Being a young adult, she has long lost her baby fat, and has replaced her facial features with that of a more toned and refined look, one that is noble, but also shows off her different cultural backgrounds. As for eyes, she has a pair of glimmering dark brown eyes that she has inherited from her father's side. Her head of course, is covered with a black head of wavy black hair, which is naturally lustrous in appearance, yet uniquely wavy at the same time.
No longer having the body of a teenager, she has already embraced the body of a true young adult woman. Although her lithe slender arms have retained their sleekness, silkiness, and slenderness, they still hold a toughness from her lean muscles. The songstress lacks the beauty of a teenager, but makes it up with the look of a young adult woman, which highly sets her apart from many other normal women.
Clothing:[/b]
Angela is a girl that doesn't seem to value her clothing sense, nor seems to have a single care when it comes to fashion. The woman hates uncomfortable clothes, and usually tends to stick to clothing that keeps her cool, and comfortable. With this sense of 'dress', she usually wears a simple pair of different types of jeans each day. Most of her shirts are composed of t-shirts with many random logos on it, from sport shirts such as the one above. Occasionally, she may wear something slightly fancier, which consists usually of a mesh like white or black vest covering half of her t-shirt. The thing that she'll will never be seen without is her trade mark black glasses, which are mostly just for her vision. On times, she may wear wristbands around her wrists, from 'Billabong', to bracelets.
History/Background:[/b]
Angela is a woman who came from a three person family, consisting of herself as the only child, her Japanese mother, and her foreign father. Her family hails from a Japanese town called Tokushima, and is also the most gifted one in the whole family. Angela's mother was a traditional singer whom sung in bars as a job, while her father was an executive in his company of 'International Music'. Because of her father's role as the president of the company, her family was usually paid well off, and usually had high amounts of excess money for them to spend. In their spare time, they eventually had a child together, their child's name being Kiyomi Aki.
Kiyomi had a very unique ability that shocked her mother during her toddler years. When her mother was singing a song, she was surprised and amazed to find her own daughter, singing in tune with the song, with a vibrant voice. Ever since then, Kiyomi was training in singing, constantly being with her mother to raise her musical prowess. At the age of four, Kiyomi had begun learning how to play classical piano. Within a few days, Kiyomi had went from a beginner, to a master at the piano arts.
During her life as a young child, Kiyomi's unique ability in mastering instruments had already perplexed her parents. Already knowing how to play the piano, guitar, bass, drums, and harp, they were starting to question their girl's musical abilities, wondering if what some kind of magical trick. At the age of six, they finally decided to test their assumptions, and sent Kiyomi to a two week study in a school known as 'Alice Academy'. During her stay in the academy, teachers studied her nature constantly, determining if she indeed have some kind of ability, or if it was just sheer luck.
The news arrived, and her parents were notified that Kiyomi had a very unique alice, one that was always active and passive. Amazed, they realized Angela's potential for music, and immediately enrolled her in the Academy. Due to her advanced knowledge in the subjects, she was labeled as an advanced student, and started two grades higher then a normal person would. Within a single year, her advanced mind allowed her to pull out the latent abilities of her alice, the ability to produce 'magical' effects through magic.
Her life in Alice Academy was normal, she practiced, learned many new instruments, wrote songs, and even performed for her school for mini concerts. Kiyomi's extremely high GPA earned her an award of a $5000 dollar scholarship to any University in the United States. Taking up the offer, she hugged her family goodbye, and moved to to Washington D.C, capital of the United States. However, once she moved to the states, Kiyomi was caught up in a little problem that involved her name.
Due to the different culture, Kiyomi's name was usually pronounced awkwardly in English. To better fit her name, she legally changed her name from Kiyomi to Angela to allow the citizens to pronounce her name right. During her stay in Washington D.C, Angela enrolled in a private institute known as George Washington University. For her studies, she began to major in music, particularly in piano, and jazz studies. However, her wants changed, and eventually she was able to earn a Bachelors Degree in Music, and Music teaching. She also surprised her parents, by taking two other majors in the English language, and another major in the study of musical lyrics. With her advanced nature, she also earned a minors in other subjects, such as small math subjects, biology, world history, and even the Japanese language.
Seeking a teaching career in music, Angela eventually moved back to Japan due to major homesickness. At first, she couldn't find a particular school to teach music, but was eventually happy to find that her old school, Alice Academy was seeking new staff members. Taking the chance, she snagged the job, and was taken in as a substitute teacher for the school. Nowadays, she stays in Alice Academy, bringing the love of music to the students, or just simply teaching a class in their general subjects if a teacher is absent.
