Background: Iku was one to never fit in with her family. No matter how hard she tired always seemed out of place. The only person who didn't make her feel that way was her father of course. Her father spent days and days on end with little Iku. Of course, this was the great King's first born child. Why wouldn't he love her to death. Though the mystery of who her mother was, remained just that... A mystery. Iku's farther was as i mentioned before, A great king of the Bat demon Tribe. Normally the first born, would be heir to the throne, but because of her mystery mother. The tribe voted against it. Not that Iku cared she was just a kid who wanted to be by her fathers side. Yes, Iku was a daddy's girl and always would be. At the age of 14 her body started to develop and the guys certainly noticed. Iku never understood the attention she was getting. The occasional whistle, It was just plain awkward. Of course she was starting to notice the guys as well, but she didn't whistle at them. She was always such a kind young girl, as her father raised her to be. About the age of 15 Iku had received her very first boyfriend. Of course Iku was stoked, But the relationship was to be kept private for Iku being royalty, was not permitted to have such a relationship. Iku lived a happy life.
....Until a dark and shady day came. What was suppose to be the happiest day of her teenage life, Her sweet 16, Iku had snick out to see her boyfriend. Who she had been secretly dating for a year now. She had fallen head over heals for the guy. She was the happiest she's ever been. When she had met with her boyfriend. He said he had a surprise for her, and it was in the basement. Iku believed him and was first to walk in. The surprise? Well, It wasn't exactly a happy surprise for Iku was then raped. Iku's heart had then been shattered to pieces, and the word trust was no longer in her vocabulary. The second she was free, Iku ran away as far as she could. Hoping to never see him again. She was too ashamed to go back home. Too ashamed to show her face. After what had happened Iku vowed never to return.
After day's of traveling Iku had ended up in a school called Diabolic Domain. Here she had learned many things and met many people. Including Xue Fang, and Mitsuko. Who later became Iku's best friends/sister figures. This is also the place she had met the famous Tyr Ryujin. At first Iku despised him. Despite his charm, that had so many girls fawning over him. Iku could've done without. Tyr who was shocked himself that a girl didn't fawn over him found her as ... a challenge. Iku's opinion of him was pretty much dirt. But as the days went by Tyr continued to chase after her. As the days went by, Tyr had became a regular sight. It wasn't long after that she became a Dragon rider. Only one thing that she wasn't told about. The first female to became a dragon rider was the Weyrwoman. Or queen in other words. And Tyr, was the Weyrleader. This had forced Iku and Tyr to get MARRIED! This also lead to the birth of Black Kiara. Who ultimately became her very best friend. At first the marriage tore them apart. They started fighting alot more frequently then others. It was Iku's struggle to become free from this bond, that would never be broken. Secretly though, Iku would never admit, her feelings were starting to change. She had actually started caring for Tyr in a different way.
Of course she denied it even to herself. After what had happened, Iku felt she could never trust another guy again. So she pushed and pushed. The more she pushed the more she realized, that she actually did care for him deeply maybe even love him. But it was too late, Iku had already driven him mad. After that there was a 2 year time period. Iku and Tyr didn't talk to each other. They saw each other, yes. But not a word came out of their mouths. And each time Iku asked herself why? Why did she push him away. It was then Iku had bumped into him on Mt. Rei, After Iku had thought that the bond as Weyrleader and Weyrwoman had been canceled. Turned out Tyr was too lazy to even do so. Iku was inwardly happy. Thats when Iku grew some guts and finally (though it took alot of forcing out) told Tyr how she felt. Surprisingly, he still felt the same, Thats when they had moved in together, and though, there Weyr viewed them as husband and wife, They looked at each other as a boyfriend girlfriend. There was still much to be done, and much to learn
Personality: Iku is a very strong, independent and intelligent woman. In most cases Iku is a feminist. The only person who gets a free pass would be Tyr. The person that she loves the most. Thought that still doesn't stop them from getting into fights. Iku, even after a few years of healing, still has a major trust issue with men. She's constantly keeping her guard up around them and probably will for the rest of her life (old habits die hard). Iku is somewhat of a calm person, unless you annoy her to death, after that you will find that she is not only hot headed, but stubborn as a mule. But that dosn't always go to a bad use. Iku is a fighter and fights for what she believes in.
Weapon(s)/ Abilities: Iku has the ability to sprout wings and fly and manipulate lightning. Iku is also a sword user, though she rarely uses it.
Strengths: Iku's strength is that she fights until the end. She has a big amount of fighting power and as stated before will always fight for something she believes in.
Weaknesses: Iku's stubborn head, and feminist views, sometimes cloud her better judgments and causes trouble by not trusting the people she SHOULD trust. Which could sometimes leave her in a pickle.
and well... Iku's been around for years so no need for approving x3
