(Background copied from my post in 'Other skills' thread).
Tachiko is, obviously enough, an elf. At about three hundred years old she's considered a teenager by other elves, and she acts like one, too. She's fairly talented, in a mostly intuitive way, with magic of many sorts, although she tends to just get up and start slinging levin-bolts when it comes to a fight.
She spent about a century and a half in Japan, and rather liked it, thus the name. (Part of what lured her into the Legendary was meeting and working with Evangelia, a "real honest-to-Sailor-Moon magical girl!!!". (She probably hangs out with Yukiyo a good part of the time, too, chatting, exchanging tips on magic, and such.)
She's quite knowledgeable about the Fey, and hearing about an UnSeelie Court incursion (Redcaps and such, whoa!) has got her a bit riled up to get her clearance high enough to face them down. In the meantime, though, the Circle of Thorns just makes her ears hurt, and don't even ask about Vazhilok or Clockworks (she tends to just growl obscenities in Elven if you do).
She is a fair woodswoman and tracker, and enjoys camping, hiking, hunting, and boating. She's also a fairly good cook, at any level from the campfire to the "grilled salmon gourmet for the entire team" sort of thing.
Personality-wise, she tends to be flighty and capricious, like a teenager with minor ADHD and a random whimsical streak that leads her to just about anything from "spend an afternoon dishing up at a soup kitchen" to "pick a villain gang and set their trousers on fire". She is rarely malicious, unless someone gets her upset, but frequently thoughtless. (Getting her mad, on the other hand, has a tendency to stir the bit of unseelie Sidhe in her, which can tend to be Bad. Her dark side doesn't come out to play very often, but it gets along far too well with Jackie Frost for anyone's comfort.)--
