Character Information
Name: Gaia
True Name: Anya-Mari Nakamura
Gender: Female
Age: Twenty
Birthday: March 13th, 2000
Greatest Ambition: To find her brother
Physical Description: Anya-Mari stands above average height at five
foot seven. She has a slim, leanly muscular frame with slightly rounded
hips and small waist, and a prominent backside. She has a ballerina's
figure. Ahn's eyes are wide and almond shaped and demanding in their
warm mahogany color. They sit under dark, softly curved brows and over
a straight Nubian nose. She has a wide mouth that is often spread apart
in a bright, thousand watt smile that often shows her white relatively
straight teeth (relative because of the slight over bite. Ahn's
delicate, pointed, almost elfin features are a creamy milk chocolate
color and framed by a black mass of wavy hair.
Anya is always dressed meticulously. Often in neutral colored
tank-tops, sleek black pants or tight dark-washed jeans, high heels or
boots. She rarely ever wears sneakers in front of polite company. When
going to a dinner she often wears dark, or metallic colored, clothing
stylized from the 1940's. For other less formal occasions her dresses
are usually short and airy, many times with flower patterns and are in
bright, flattering coloring. Her clothing is always posh and that of a
cultured young lady. There is a rumor that Anya-Mari owns a barely
there green beaded skirt and killer strappy heels but she refuses to
affirm or disprove it.
Distinguishing Marks: Scar right by her left ear, the skin is slightly
puckered. She has a birth mark on her stomach, her inner right thigh,
and the inside of her left lower arm. She has a She has a tattoo of a
white turtle with a tree on her the lower right side of her back. She
secretly got the tattoo when she was fifteen when she was out with
Danni and Ace; her parents never discovered it. She has another tattoo,
two actually, on right arm. It is a dragon holding onto a red planet.
They represent her siblings and she got the tattoo in England her first
year at Oxford. Her last tattoo is rather intricate and it takes up the
entirety of her left arm. Anya-Mari had it done around the time the
trouble started, a month before people began to be quarantined. It's
rosary. Her family was never overly religious but her maternal
grandmother was. The design stands for many things to her.
Sexual Orientation: Mostly heterosexual
Single or taken: Single
Best friend: Danni and Ace
Personality: When thinking about Ahn it is difficult not to think of
her in terms of what she can do for you. Not that she has the look of
someone that can be easily taken advantage of. Quite the contrary, Ahn
is the type of person that everyone needs at least one of in their
life. The type of person who one knows will always be there. Steady,
dependable, flexible, and open-minded, her lips are always curved into
a slight amused smile and her delicate features are always alight with
mischief.
Anya is a willow tree, firm against the wind and always providing
shelter. For her parents she was absolutely perfect. Studious,
hard-working, disciplined, and skilled at whatever they demand to be.
She was their little ice princess, there was nothing that she could do
wrong in her eyes. Mostly for the fact that Ahn didn't do things wrong.
For her younger siblings Anya was mother. Since their own mother was
barely around the goal of nurturer and guardian fell to her. She was
the one who corrected them firmly and tucked them into bed with kisses.
If you ask the two of them, Anya-Mari is warmth, laughter, and rules.
For her friends Ahn was haven and honesty. Secrets and advice. She was
control. The one you could rely on to be completely honest and explain
to you the grey harshness of life. Someone who reminded you that it
would get better. She was the first one to start the fun and the one
there picking up the pieces, reminding others of control and
temperance.
Forty before she was six Anya-Mari's existence has been lived for
others. If you were to ask her who she was for herself, she wouldn't
rightly know.
Personal History: AnnMarie Remy and Kenshin Nakamura met in 1995
through a mutual friend during a New Years Eve Party. The son of a very
wealthy Japanese tycoon the night was just another party in his
extensive social repertoire. For Annie it was a night of rest for a
hard-working intern. The daughter of a Haitian immigrant and a poor
Cuban-Dominican New Yorker, she wanted to make it big and she wanted to
be very successful. Her specialty, surgery, was a very difficult one
and she had no time for fooling around. Or so she thought. One would
never be so jaded to call the meeting between Ken and Ann love at first
sight. More like strong lust at first glance and mutual agreement by
the third date. Ken's father was constantly pushing him to bring a
proper girl-at the time ANY proper girl, she didn't have to be
Japanese-home to marry. Annie was barely paying her loans. Ken was
rich. Annie was beautiful. The two intelligent twenty-something year
olds quickly came to an agreement: a marriage of arrangement. After a
trial run of living together for a few years, they were married in 1998
and their first-born child was born two years later, right about the
time Anne finished all of her education.
Anya-Mari Nakamura was born on March 13th, 2000 and by March 20th, 2000
her parents had her entire life mapped out for her. What schools she
would go to, what activities she would do, what people she would talk
to, even what dress she would where to her wedding was put on reserve.
Her parents were the crème of the crop and they excelled in their
respective fields, they would not expect less than the best from their
children. Especially not from their first-born. Luckily Anya-Mari was
everything they asked for and more. A straight A student who was
artistically talented and acted like the proper little lady whenever
they brought her out on display. And she was lovely and an original
thinker who only stated opinions when they asked. They were absolutely
thrilled. So, thrilled in fact they decided to try again and six years
later that they decided to try again and Anya's little brother was
born. This one was even better, he was quieter than Anya-Mari and
seemed to have been born mature from the womb. They dressed him up in
the best clothing, sent him to the best schools, and left him to his
nanny.
It wasn't that the Nakamuras didn't love their children. Ken loved
taking them places whenever he had to travel. Took them to Milan and
Tokoyo and Brazil. Annie showed them things, practical things that Ken
thought was silly to show wealthy children, things such as sewing and
cooking. Things AnnMarie's own mother told her she needed to know to
survive. The Nakamuras loved their children but it was quickly realized
that it was best that they loved their children in short spurts of
time. Some people simply weren't meant to be parents and nurturers.
Usually that bred hard and selfish and cruel children, however, the
Nakamura kids had each other to rely on. And while that wasn't the most
stable of situations at all times it was good enough for them since
they had each other.
That is how they spent their lives, for each other, even when their
parents uprooted them from New York to random mid-west America
Sundance, Wyoming. Even when they began socializing with different
crowds of people. Ahn with the children of the wealthier residents and
her brother with anyone who was a science geek. Even when their parents
uprooted them again, this time to Houston, Texas; they dealt with it
all with amazing aplomb because they had each other. Things only began
to become difficult when the virus struck while Anya-Mari was off in
England, for college. Stuck in quarantine in a camp just outside of
Oxford she only learned information about her family because of her
wealth. The illness had gotten her paternal grandparents, first of
course. Then her father and then her mother. Then her maternal
grandparents. Struck them all down one by one until they were all gone.
She knew that her siblings were separated because her marsbars had
stayed with their parents and her little dragon had been visiting with
their maternal grandparents. Knowing her brother she knew that he would
have never left their grandparents alone during the crisis.
It took Ahn six months to find a handful of individuals competent
enough to run a steady enough boat from England to America. She wasn't
dumb enough to take her chances with a plane. It took another three
months to find her sister and sneak her out of the camp she had been in
Georgia. Another month to make her way to New York to the camp where
her brother should have been. It was absolutely deserted. Tired and
frustrated, Anya-Mari did things she had to do to survive and keep her
baby sister alive. Steal, cheat, lie, once almost coming close to using
sex for shelter. Almost. It was in an almost deserted camp in Ohio did
she hear rumors about Sundance from a half-crazed girl.
Weary, enough to place enough of her faith into the rumor she packed up
what little she and Yuki had with the destination of Sundance in mind.
When she reached Sundance ... it wasn't quite what she expected. Not
that she had great expectations but the separation of tribes and
territories came about seeming counter-productive to her. Nevertheless,
she set about her mission in finding her best friends and her brother.
Disappointed, but relatively content, in the fact that she has only
completed half of what she has set out to do Ahn has settled well with
the other Mountain Lions. They offer a security that she has
desperately needed for both herself and Yuki. S he was both amused and
completely unsurprised to discover that Tyler was the second in command
of the tribe. And she has a lot of fun ruffling his feathers and
telling him how pompous he looks every-single chance she can get.
Birth Location: Queens, New York
Blood Family: Parents deceased. Grandparents deceased. Brother missing.
Sister, Yukiko is age seven
What tribe do they belong to if any?: She belongs to the Mountain Lions
How long have they been with that tribe?: Recently, about three months
Personal Strengths: Funny, smart, dependable, artistic, trust-worthy,
elegant, calm, astute, neat, opinionated, strong, empathic,
compassionate, loyal, affectionate
Personal Weaknesses: Sarcastic to the point of cold bitchiness at
times, possessive, a bit of a door-mat, neatness can be obsessive,
prone to moods, detached, superficial
Personal Skills and Training: Ballet since she was seven and the piano
since she was five. She is strong in four languages, excluding English,
and passable at three others. She is handy with a stove, a needle and
thread, and at hand-washing. She has a low and smoky voice that is
great for singing, mostly she does encores on Little Bo Peep and
lullabies. Ballet and playing on the piano from such a young age has
made her quick on her feet, quick with her hands, sharpened her view
for details, and given her a great memory. Given the fact that she is
naturally perceptive there isn't much that you can pass by Ahn; whether
it is bull-shit or trying to steal a cookie when her back is turned.
Job that they have in the tribe or whatever they do to keep themselves
alive if they're alone: Listener/Seamstress/Sweets-maker
PB: Zoe Saldana
Plot ties
Plot tie 1: Ace's ex-girlfriend. One of the rare ones who DOESN'T want
to kill him in his sleep
Plot tie 2: Dealing with the entire tribe situation. She doesn't like
it but she does feel a loyalty to Ace and Danni
Plot tie 3: Finding. Finding herself. Finding her little dragon.
It's a path that will be tied pretty strongly together. Her little
brother was always mature for his age and he was the one person she
could completely relax around.
