Name:

Kaliska Windrunner (Okay not really, but it's pretty right?)

Age:

27 (Yeah I'm a little old to be doing this... but hell we all need a hobby right?)

Likes:

A really good, well written story. I'm a sucker for romance. I'm pretty much up for any couple as long as it's well written. (With the exception of yaoi and yuri or incest, not that I have anything against it, it just doesn't make my skirt fly up) Music, anime, RPG's...

Dislikes:

Character bashers. I understand that there are characters that people will like, and also hate. But when you let your feelings of a character get in the way of your writing and write them way OOC because you are blinded by your hate of them... then do everyone else a favor and keep your dribble to yourself... A little ribbing at Sasuke however, is okay.

Favorite animes:

Twelve Kingdoms, Naruto, Inuyasha, Kaleido Star, Yokitate Japan, Fruits Basket, Full Metal Alchemist, everything by dear Hayao Miyazaki, Slayers, Slayers Next, and Slayers TRY (Hells yeah, my first love), Scrapped Princess, Scryed, Bleach, Rave Master (it's a little corny, but I like it)

Favorite Characters:

Aeris Gainsborough, My favorite character since I was sixteen years old. No one's been able to usurp her position from her throne of my favoriteness of all characters. For those of you that don't know her. She is from Final Fantasy VII. And she's the woman in my avatar. I hope to write an epic with her in it some day. Just another thing on an already long TO DO list. A Sesshomaru/Aeris. I know I'm absolutely nuts. I just can't get past the whole sheperd of the planet meets the killing perfection. (Or the end of the circle of life depending on translation) Talk about exact opposites. I think I just like the idea of seeing Sesshomaru confounded. Aeris would do that to him. sighs

Sakura Haruno: I adore writing her. She just is an amazingly contrasted character who is tons of fun to work with. She achieved serious character growth in the series. I don't care what anyone says about her. Anyone who is a doctor by the age of 15-16 is no idiot. So she was obsessed with a boy at the age of 13? That's pretty normal. Annoying maybe, but, understandable behavior. Hormones makes people nuts. We can't help it.

Inoue Orihime: Another teenager who gets too much flak for a crush. However, I really, really like her. (LOVE HER) She's grown alot in the series and I can't wait to see what becomes of her. Perfect characters bore me. Yeah so she doesn't come out right away, kicking zombie Hollow ass. She's not all, "LOOK AN ARRANCAR KEEL IT NOWZ!" That's just not in her personality. However I like that about her. She doesn't judge people or the undead for what they are or who they are and remains compassionate all the while and has a respect for life in general. I also think there is more to her than meets the eye. Which is a great thing in any character. It forces us to look underneath the underneath. I do like Rukia too btw. No hating here for the girls in that series. Not with the baka boys they have to put up with. =/

Favorite pairing:

Too many to put here. As long as you write it well... I'll read it. I'm pretty open minded to all pairings except (Yaoi or Yuri or incest like I said, I have nothing against it, it just doesn't float my boat)

Stories Completed!

Free Fall: Complete: The Great Ninja Wars had ended more than a decade ago. But that wouldn’t stop a country supposedly in a state of peace from searching for greater power to hold over other countries, or even a clan from another. Itachi Uchiha, a cold and calculating ANBU captain, and prominent and rising prodigy of the Uchiha Clan, captures Sakura Haruno an elusive “Sin’dorei”, something many believed to nothing but a childhood fairytale.

Baruch Haba: by Barry Kornreich, for those who wanted to hear it, also has Shofar in the beginning for those curious about the sound of the shofar: http://www.imeem.com/henningkemner/music/6qAGEerZ/barry_batya_segal_baruch_haba/

Music Box Music: "Far Away Promise": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2XfFh_5KjU

Blacksmith's Daughter: There once was a pink haired woman who was nothing more than a simple blacksmith’s daughter. Yet none could match the ferocity of her spirit once the hilt of a blade was held within her grasp. An arrogant, cocky, self-assured dragon prince was certainly no exception. Sakura/Neji

Sakura's Dress and hair for Blacksmith's Daughter masquerade: Of course with Sakura's long bangs... instead of Saber's short, but you get the idea.

Wild Horses: Written in first person: Sakura suddenly finds herself facing an arranged marriage with the Hyuuga heir. She doesn't want to tie herself romantically to anyone. Will a refusal upset her life too much? Will she be forced to accept something she does not want. Sakura/Neji

Bump and Grind: Inuyasha verse. Sango is fed up with Miroku's pervertedness leading Kagome to discuss modern day women. One thing leads to another and before they know it the girls suddenly find themselves caught up in a game that could be more trouble than it's worth. Humor. Oneshot.

Lady Thief: Some little girls’ dream of beautiful, flawless jewels and usually someday is given a flawless token of appreciation from their dream prince on his white horse. But one little pink haired trickster steals said jewels from those spoiled little girls Sakura/Itachi

Stories in Progress:

Harken's Bell: A woman bound by fate. A life intertwined with those who come in the name of Shinobi of whom she spurned. Was the price of being true to a birth right too steep? Or was blending with those she could never understand the answer to her plight? AU

Tempest Keep: What should have been a simple C-rank mission to deliver a scroll to Tea Country so a certain pink haired medic could take a break from a tedious hospital schedule became anything but. All within the breath of a moment. AU

Porcelain Courage: Inuyasha verse. Devastated by a horrific twist of fate. Kagome struggles to complete what she feels is her duty. Sess/Kag. AU.

Seems like I always do these things in threes. Sorry everyone, I guess my brain just can't focus on one at a time. (though sometimes for stress reasons I wish it would)
