Family: Father- Connor Rana: Irish Druid (wizard if you will), Mother- Yumibara Mokoto: Japanese Sorceress (witch if you prefer)

Family History: Torashiro's Mother died in childbirth with her, and her father raised her by himself until she was 19. He was killed in what the Irish police called a "botched robbery attempt". Someone had broken into the house looking for the books and mystical items her father was curator of.

Personal History: Torashiro has been a wanderer since her father's death. She set wards over the fam,ily home and surrounding lands, and has drifted about. She finds work where she can, but present times of unrest make so many wary of newcomers. She heard of a local school for Witchcraft and Wizardry, and felt compelled to go there. It is the closest to home she's been in the past four years.

Personality: Tora is a wanderer who is very empathetic, she can feel others emotions and take their emotions within herself. She is very loyal and enjoys meeting new people and making friends. She gets introspective when thinking about her family, of which she alone survives. She has great patience and is slow to anger, but once agitated will strike out and then be over it. She enjoys being alone but is not a loner. Tora loves to read and is very intellectual and she is at home in the library. She's a follower of ancient Druidic codes which allow for eating of animals, but only if the entirety will be consumed and used, and does not allow for irresponsible killing. She also harbors a seed of darkness, against her teachings, for those responsible for her father's death. While not "on the side" of the Order, she'd more redily side with them than the Death Eaters, because she knows they would be those who had killed her father to get the magical items in her home. She also has a sadness about her because her betrothed vanished. She knows he is dead, because she has lost her connection with him, something even dark magic could never sever. She tries to make new friends to fill the gap in her heart, and hopes someday there will be another who will break through and carve his own space.

Appearence: Torashiro has asian pale smooth skin, and black eyes ((that change colors with mood)). Her heart shaped face is classically asian with a touch of mixed blood in the eyes, hers aren't so almond shaped, and is shrouded in long, usually wavy but often straightened, Irish dark red hair. She is lithe and willowy...she travels a lot and eats only those animals she must. Torashiro is very strong, she is trained in Martial Arts and practices often to keep in top shape.

Pets: One pet dragon, an heirloom pet passed through the family. Hers is merely a baby of 125 years. Aoi Ryu is appropriately blue. He is also a rather small Asian Mountain dragon, he serves in the place of an owl for delivering messages, and he has the protective enchantments of dragons. ((In times of great need Torashiro can call on his family, of which there are four others, His mother, younger sister, and two older twin brothers. His father was killed in the last great Wizard wars.))
