Physical description: Sparrow is of about an average weight, neither extremely skinny nor overweight, and looks younger than 15. She's cute and she knows it, and will sometimes use her cuteness to her advantage. Her wings are a translucent, pale blue, and are similar to those of a dragonfly.

Attire: Sparrow wears earrings like Kwan's, because she thought it would be cute if they matched (Kwan didn't agree). She has a silver necklace, and prefers to wear dresses in pastel colors. Her shoes are like ballet shoes, with ribbons that lace up to her knee.

Character Description: Despite being the only girl in her household, Sparrow isn't a tomboy. Instead, she preferred to stay away from games that could get messy and would play with dolls. She never did especially well when it came to learning, though she is able to read and enjoys reading [usually romance] novels. She's somewhat gullible and has a tendency to overdramatize her life and let her emotions carry her away. When she was twelve, she was grounded for talking back at her parents, and, while sulking, managed to convince herself that her entire family hated her. She ran (or, actually, flew) away, without any sensible thought involved. By the time she had second thoughts, she was hopelessly lost and exhausted, and she blacked out and fell into Michad Pond, where Kwan saved her life.

Since then, Sparrow has thought of Kwan as the sister she never had. They also fight like sisters, but most of the time they will admit to being good friends. Not long after meeting Kwan, Sparrow met Rikou, and has convinced herself that he is the only man she will ever love--but until he figures that out, she isn't adverse to flirting with other guys. Although she would never admit it if you asked her, her "undying affection" for Rikou will probably fade when she finds someone else to obsess over.

Sparrow loves parties, music, and theater. Though she doesn't perform, she enjoys watching others do so, and especially loves love songs and romantic plays, as does Kwan--though she insists that they make her feel ill. Sparrow also has learned to enjoy swimming, once Kwan taught her how--and so long as she has a filter to allow her to breathe underwater.

The only semi-useful thing Sparrow has a talent for is embroidery, and she manages to make a little money for her work, but she would rather get married to someone who can support her than to have to support herself.
