===== Personality =====
[[Image:Kyoko 60.PNG|frame| "..."]]

Strength is what Ping strives for.  Yes, its somewhat stereotypical and perhaps even a little cheesy, but Ping hasn't ever really concerned herself with being 'cool.'  Strength can be measured, her growth something she can observe.  Strength... is the projection of her will on her surroundings.

Ping had her trust taken advantage of by her first 'boyfriend.'  She was ten at the time, and she was so suprised and flattered that she wasn't ostrasized out of hand (the typical reaction of often cruel kids toward someone different from them) that she let her guard down.  Her first clue something was wrong was being called in to the headmasters office to explain some rather disrespectful thoughts on both the headmaster and most of the staff.  Thoughts detailed in her diary which he had somehow gotten hold of.  The so-called friend recieved glowing recommendations and scholarships, putting him on the fast track toward a successful political career.  Ping recieved a valuable lesson in relying on others.

Ping is often unpredictable.  She tends to reason in leaps and bounds, and often she skips ahead in conversations without verbalizing the thought-process that builds the foundation for where she is now.  Her responses to events range from normal to non-sequitor.  Often she doesn't understand why her point of view isn't shared by everyone else.  Its not that she isn't thinking things through, its simply a case of interpertation.

As Ping was raised in an environment that didn't endear her to authority, she has somewhat different thoughts on the ultimate authority, Heaven.  She sincerely believes that Heaven is stifling human potential for its own peace and quiet, and that Thoughtful Wren is one of the worst traitors in history.
