Overview:
Sarah pretty much jumped at the call when receiving the mantle of the Obsidian Rider, though she is aware of the danger and responsibility that comes with it. In battle, she is quite fast, and adept at evading her opponent's attacks. She has no formal combat training though and tends to rely on her weapons and equipment as opposed to actual skill. Outside of battle, she is very relaxed and easy-going, and very much eager to make new friends, though she can be a bit hesitant approaching people personally. She is very, perhaps too trusting towards other people, though if they do break her trust, beware, she is very unforgiving and difficult to reconcile. Overall, a very honest and noble person at heart, if rather naive and guileless.
Hero Stuff
Name: Kamen Rider Obsidian
Type Of Hero: Kamen Rider
Henshin Device: Obsidian Gloves
Henshin Sequence: The Gloves materialize on Sarah's hands, whereupon she claps her hands whilst shouting "Henshin". She is then enveloped in a shroud of darkness as her armor forms around her body until dissipating, revealing her default Midnight Form[
Forms:
- Form Name: Midnight Form
Image/ Description: The armor is very sleek, and if not for the silver highlights around her visor, shoulders and sides, would be completely colored black, (And quite difficult to see at night). The helmet itself has a rather feral appearance, almost resembling that of a wolf, with the silver fringes at her helmet resembling wolf ears and mane. The suit itself appears to be rather lightly armored.
Motif:Wolf
Color Scheme:Black, Silver
Transformation:See above
Fighting Style:/In this form, Sarah prefers to keep her distance, utilizing her speed whilst relying on her weapons for offense
Weapons: Ebon Blade: A sabre-type blade that serves as Sarah's chief means at close quarters combat, primarily to ward off any enemy that comes too close for comfort.
Obsidian Gauntlet: Sarah's primary ranged attack weapon, capable of unleashing bursts of energy at her foes.
Abilities: The armor allows her to perform incredible feats of speed and agility, making Sarah capable of, with prior warning thanks to her helmet's sensors, capable of dodging most attacks and allowing her to sneak in a few attacks of her own. As a consequence for this maneuverability though, due to the light frame of the armor all it takes is a couple good hits to incapacitate her.
Finisher(s): Eclipse: With all her strength, Sarah thrusts the Ebon Blade straight into her opponents chest
Requiem: Sarah charges the Obsidian Gauntlet, unleashing a powerful, directed burst of energy, shaped like a wolf, towards her foe. - Form Name: Onyx Form
Image/ Description: The silver highlights of her previous form transforms into pieces of armor, including shoulder pads, and heavier boots, giving her armor a more bulkier appearence
Motif: Same as above
Color Scheme: Same as above
Transformation: To activate this form, Sarah crosses her arm whilst shouting "Onyx Shift!", she then spreads her arms wide as her armor changes form.
Fighting Style: In this form, Sarah is much more willing to get up close and personal, though she still tends to keep her distance whenever possible
Weapons: Sable Claws: Sarah's hands develop razor sharp claws which she will use to claw and strike at any close opponent.
Abilities: She is much more durable and capable of taking hits in this form, though this also sacrifices the maneuverability of the Midnight Form.
Finisher(s): Feral Mauling: With a lunge at her opponent, Sarah slashes her opponent with multiple claw swipes before finishing it with a boot to the chest.
Other Equipment:- iPod
- Smartphone
History
Sarah was born in San Francisco, and lived a relatively normal and sheltered childhood with her parents and older brother. As a child, Sarah had often dreamed of becoming a superhero, to fight evil and help those in needs. This came largely due to her reading the exploits of costumed vigilantes combating giant monsters on the news. And while her fantasy was tempered as she grew older, it never did completely go away. She would later go on to college at UC Davis, graduating with a degree in English and minor in philosophy, during this time, Sarah became friends with Samantha Choi. After graduating, Sarah found herself in the equivalent of a mid-midlife crisis, wanting to do something that could bring meaning to her life and make a difference at the same time. Sam, who was looking to attend graduate school, offered her to move into her studio apartment in San Francisco as a means of accomplishing just that, an offer she accepted. Sarah found herself working in a variety of odd jobs, from part-time cook to an assistant at the local public library. Her wanderlust and desire for adventure remaining, Sarah had begun to consider moving out of San Francisco and to take up traveling once she had acquired enough funding, maybe then she could at last find meaning in life.
That was when one day, she came upon a package in the mail of unknown sender, and after considering whether to return it, opened the package to reveal a pair of relatively unremarkable leather gloves, for some reason, Sarah felt an urge to don the gloves, only to promptly disappear the minute she put them on. She didn't tell anyone about this of course, not that anyone would likely believe the story, but it did leaver her with a lot of questions, what were those gloves? Who sent them? And why her? Whatever it was, she was determined to find out.
In the meantime, there have witness accounts of an armored vigilante, clad in black, that has been partaking in activities ranging from preventing petty crimes, to averting a monster attack near the Presidio.

"You do know its almost noon, right?" Sam said to the sleeping form laid out on the air mattress.
"Mmmph" Was her reply. Sam sighed, Sarah as always did not want to get up during mornings. With no choice, she set the mattress to deflate.
"It's Sunday" Sarah grumbled, trying to block out the sound with her pillow.
"Yes I know its Sunday, and I think you mentioned it was your turn to handle the laundry." Sam said
"I'll do it in a couple hours"
"Funny, that's exactly what you said last week." Sam insisted.
Grumbling, Sarah finally stirred out of her slumber "Alright, alright, you win." She said with a yawn "Just let me go take my shower"
As her friend went into the bathroom, Sam couldn't help but wonder, her friend had never been a morning person, but these days, it seemed even harder to stir her out of bed, especially when she had to remind her she had work that day. And when she did come home, she appeared to be rather exhausted, it made her want to ask Sarah on what she did while she was out, though she didn't want to appear as if she nosing into her private life.
For now, though she simply said "Want to me make something for you?"
"Just some toast and Cream of Wheat."[/b]
