Xericka

Xericka (pronounced zare-ih-kuh) is a Nobody agent currently serving in the Department of Bad Slash. She is written by PoorCynic.

Appearance
Xericka is 5'10" tall and very slender. She has dark blue hair, which is usually tied back into a rough ponytail, and grey eyes. She always wears a long black coat identical to those worn by Organization XIII, with the only major differences being the flash patches on her sleeves. Additional images of Xericka may be found here.

Personality
Xericka is logical and precise, especially in her manner of speaking. Visible emotions are rare for her; she only chooses to emote when a situation would call for an extreme reaction, which has led some agents to regard her as coldhearted. Those who express their feelings openly and constantly sometimes confuse her. She shows annoyance at many things, including illogical situations, poor biology, Organization slash, pointing out the consistency flaws in her home continuum, and Gremlin (some of the time).

Xericka is currently trying to find a hobby that would be "intellectually stimulating" enough for her. During the little free time most agents are able to eke out, she can be found on the internet looking for potential recreation activities. She has also expressed a fondness for pop music, both from Japan and the United States.

Special Abilities
Due to her origin as a member of Organization XIII, Xericka has the ability to create portals of darkness through which she can travel great distances. Using this ability outside of the Kingdom Hearts continuum can be difficult for her, however. Attempting to create portals in more realistically-based universes may exhaust Xericka to the point of collapse. Other people may travel through these portals with her, but they run the risk of becoming corrupted by the darkness the more they use them. She also does not appear to age or suffer from disease.

Xericka's darkness portals can also be used as a type of Hammerspace. She has been known to store CADs and exorcism elements in this manner while on a mission.

Agent History
Xericka began her life as the sister of two Mary Sue Nobodies who joined Organization XIII to flirt with various attractive Nobodies. After her sisters were killed by Agents Laura Dukes and Danny Richardson, she was recruited on the grounds of not having enough charges against her to warrant punishment. She was given a short period of rehabilitation and training before being made a full agent and assigned to work in the Department of Bad Slash. After being temporarily partnered with Agent Luxury for training purposes (at least, that's what Lux said it was for), Xericka was assigned to work full-time with Agent Gremlin.

Xericka has been involved in several incidents since beginning her partnership with Gremlin. Both agents were involved in a large food fight in the cafeteria in mid-2010, an experience in which Xericka came off much the worse for wear. A fracas at the PPC holiday party involving several DoSAT agents and a cart full of pies resulted in them being assigned to spork a Teen Titans smutfic.

In May 2011, Xericka helped defend the International Academy of Hetalia Fanfiction from an invasion of Mary Sues. She was awarded the Knights Grand Cross of the Order of the Mochi (GCMG) for her assistance. Later that month, Xericka participated in the rescue of an Mpreg baby from an Airbenderverse badfic. Upon the completion of the mission, she adopted the baby and named him Aiden. She insisted at the time that her reasons for doing so were based firmly in sound reasoning and not sentimentality.
