Name: Kia Kyoumou (Kia Fierce) Age: 16
Appearance:
Kia is very small for her age, standing at five feet tall and weighing just over ninety pounds. She has fair skin and freckles across her cheeks. Her eyes are a bright turquoise and are quite large. Kia’s hair is wavy and slightly curly and falls just past her shoulders, and is bright scarlet in colour. Kia could be considered beautiful if it wasn’t for the ever-present redness in her face that appears when she’s angry and the way her mouth is always turned down into a scowl.
Fashion:
Kia has never cared much for fashion (much to her mother’s disgust). She hates tying her hair up as it makes her feel restricted, although she does wear a headband on occasion to keep it out of her eyes. Kia likes the somewhat wild appearance of her hair and is against styling it, preferring to merely brush it twice a day and leave it down. Kia would never willingly wear makeup as it’s uncomfortable, makes her feel fake, and is tested by being put on animals. Clothing wise, Kia prefers bright colours (with the exception of pink) and occasionally black. She wears what is comfortable and what expresses her mood. Kia rarely feels cold, so the majority of her wardrobe consists of shorts, T-shirts and tank tops. Despite Kia’s personal opinions of fashion, she is often forced to attend elite social events with her parents, and is forced to style her hair, put on make-up and wear formal attire of her mother’s choosing.
Personality:
Kia is by no means a flat character, but there is definitely one dominant trait that anyone around her will deal with- her extremely short temper. Kia’s short fuse is capable of sending most grown men running in the other direction. Combine that with her intense stubbornness and sarcasm and you have one tough girl. Kia is also a loner due to her abrasive personality and trust issues. She is socially awkward, which some may interpret as arrogance. Underneath her rough exterior, however, Kia is compassionate and loving. If someone or something she cares about is threatened, she puts her fieriness to good use and protects what needs protecting. A determined, intellectual girl, Kia is surprisingly an ideal candidate for the leader of the Light Mews (despite what Kia may think).
Facts/Quirks:
1: Kia is rarely cold, and when she is, she’s physically exhausted, from battle or illness.
2: Kia is an environmentalist and animal-rights activist, and desperately wants to protect what she cares for.
3: Kia is surprisingly good with children. Her short temper melts away and she becomes motherly.
4: Kia’s biggest fear is letting someone into her heart and having them hurt her.

6: Kia wants to be a defense lawyer for the environment and animals, or be the head of a successful NGO.
7: Kia loves being outdoors, exercising and eating healthy foods.
8: Kia’s favourite foods are sweet potato fries, fruit salad, and salmon.
9: If Kia could change one thing about her appearance, it would be her pale skin.
10: If Kia could change one thing about her personality, it would be her insecure and untrusting nature.

Work Ethic: While working at Café Mew Mew, Kia remains quiet and ignores people as much as possible, but works hard as a waitress.
Uniform: Orange with Gold accents.
History:
Kia Kyoumou is an only child. Her parents, Mueki and Iyashii are the owners of STARR cosmetics, a make-up company which tests its products on animals. From a young age Kia has rebelled against her parents, urging them to stop their animal testing. Her father can’t stand to be around her and her mother thinks she is a disgrace. Mueki, Kia’s mother, has long dark red hair which curls thanks to the use of many products and icy blue eyes accented with heavy STARR make-up. She is considered to be immensely beautiful, but that is the extent of her beauty; physical. She is greedy, vain and selfish. Iyashii, Kia’s father, has short golden hair and emerald green eyes with an excellent build. He isn’t particularly fond of owning a makeup company, but sticks with it for the money, power, and fame that come with it. Kia has been forced to attend elite social gatherings since she was seven years old. Despite being mainly surrounded by rich stiffs, she thoroughly looks forward to any party attended by Ikimono Hogosha. Mr. Hogosha is the Japanese spokesperson for the WWF, and like Kia resents what her parents are doing. Kia has many intellectual and memorable conversations with Ikimono, who urges her to follow her dreams of leading her own successful Non-Governmental Organization. Kia grew up in a fabulous estate surrounded by elaborate gardens. As a child, Kia would help tend to the gardens and cook in the kitchen, and those that worked for her parents loved her like their own child. It became something of a game to conceal Kia from her parents when they came looking. Kia also had a series of tutors, but scared the, off. Despite this, Kia taught herself her lessons and picked things up quickly.
At the age of eleven, Kia was enrolled in the Besuto school system, one of the most prestigious systems in Japan. Following Junior High, she met her best and only friend Suji Koshou in her first year of Senior High. Kia doesn’t really fit in with anyone, and only finds solace with other outcasts and children. Adults don’t give her a chance to astound them with her eloquence and strong opinions. People her own age find her too strange. Kia remains unaffected by this though, preferring solitude over those who judge her. In school, Kia is never the top student in a particular subject, but a very strong student across the board. Her favourite subjects are environmental sciences and kickboxing, and she has an interest in foreign languages. Kia gets along with most teachers quite well and is respectful, and they seem to like her passion for knowledge and ideas. That said, these same teachers have also had to scold her for exploding at random students. There is one particular group of bullies however, the pretentious “Beauty Queens” that seem to go out of their way to irritate her. They don’t like her lack of interest in her inheritance or intense personality.
Kia is the only Light Mew not created by Ryou and Keiichiro. She became a Mew while attempting to do rescue several animals from the Cosmetic Testing Facility in the dead of night, something she had been doing for several years now. While sneaking around and letting animals out of cages, she heard someone coming and panicked, hiding. It was after she believed the noise to be gone that she emerged, still jittery, and tripped, falling into a test tube rack filled with the DNA of exotic animals. Kia fell unconscious and awoke, an empty vial of Bengal Tiger DNA beside her, while the other tubes, including Green Peahen, Black Widow, Volcano Rabbit and Black Panther had disappeared. Kia remembers a flash of a warm metallic colour and the strong smell of blood. She was discovered by Keiichiro a week and a half later with her tiger ears and tail popped out, hiding in a bush in the park near Café Mew Mew. The other Light Mews are unaware of her different transformation process.
Mew Orange! DNA: Bengal Tiger
Appearance:
Kia’s hair turns from its original scarlet colour to a brighter orange, and lengthens several inches, ending just past her breasts. Her eyes turn a soft orange, in between melon and pumpkin. Two large tiger ears pop out of her head and replace her human ones and a tiger tail grows from her tailbone.
Costume: Pumpkin & Charcoal
Mew Orange wears a strapless orange dress with black lace trimming the top. A black silk ribbon wraps around her waist, tying into a small bow at the back. Her skirt flares out and stops mid-thigh, with lighter orange peplums (the “leaves” on Ichigo’s dress) protrude outwards. Her gloves are wrist-length and are tattered at the ends. Kia wears knee length orange Go-Go boots trimmed with black while in her Mew form. Her garter (which is on her left thigh), arm bands, and choker are all orange with black trim.
Mew Mark: A tiger paw print surrounded by the outline of a star on her left collarbone.
Weapon(s):
Orange Staff: A four and a half foot orange staff. A light orange hoop perches at the top, holding a gold star like a bell, with a large black bow securing the hoop to the staff.
Tiger Claws: A pair of black and gold sais used only for close combat.
Attack(s):
Reborn Orange Burst! : Orange beams of light burst from the star of her staff. Kia’s primary attack.
Reborn Tiger Slash! : An enemy is slashed at with her staff, causing them to be attacked as if by giant tiger claws. Kia’s secondary attack, usable in a time of desperate need and emotional pain.
Battle Strengths:
Aggression: Kia brings a fierceness to battle, an adrenaline rush which boosts her strength, power, and speed.
Passion: Due to her intense passion for both animals and the planet, Kia will ignore all rational thoughts of self-preservation in her efforts to save others.
Size: Kia has the element of surprise thanks to her petite stature. She appears to be a minor threat because of her size, which gives her a chance to deal a powerful first strike that the opponent will not suspect.
Battle Weaknesses:
Temper: Kia’s temper can cause her to think irrationally and act impulsively.
Trust Issues: As Kia doesn’t trust anyone, she often refuses to accept help from her teammates.
Arrogance: Kia can be full of herself and may try and take on more than she can handle.
