[collapse=READ FIRST][i]This profile is dedicated to playing Ranko in different scenes and stories where she gets expanded, transformed, or changed in humiliating way. If you already know the Ranma 1/2 series, you can skip most of this profile and go straight to the RP Ideas collapsible and my kinks. If you don't, I've supplied some information just to give you a general ideas.

I'm completely willing to adjust or even throw out [i]some[/i] of the canon details to make an idea work! If that means playing at an earlier point in Ranko's history, playing out certain events differently, or even creating a completely alternate universe, I'm fine with that. I don't want the fact that this is technically a canon profile to get in the way of us being able to enjoy ourselves.

All I ask if that you don't forget that I want to play Ranko as Ranko. She's most fun to play when I get to be the overconfident, loud-mouthed martial artist who can never turn down a challenge.[/i][/collapse]
[color=red][b][big]RANKO SAOTOME[/big][/b][/color]
Ranko is an amazing girl! This redheaded bombshell has mastered countless martial arts styles and techniques, she's supposedly engaged to several people, she's traveled the world, and she's really a guy!.. That last part's a secret, actually. Ranko is actually Ranma Saotome, a young man who was cursed by a magical and ancient chinese training ground. Now he turns into a beautiful female version of himself whenever splashed with cold water and can only turn back when splashed with hot water.

Physically, Ranko stands at an unimposing 4'11" with bright red hair that she keeps partly tied back in a single short pigtail braid and sparkling blue eyes. For a 16 year old she's got quite a nice figure, though she tends to hide it under fairly loose and baggy clothing, typically a chinese-style top and large black training pants with simple martial arts slippers. A lifetime of training in the martial arts has left her lithe and athletic, which makes her large breasts seem even more prominent.

Ranko's life is pure chaos, filled with constant training, rivals attacking her, love interests trying to force themselves on her, perverted old masters trying to make her wear skimpy lingerie, and bizarre magical objects causing all kinds of weird stuff to happen. It seems like there's a never-ending conga-line of new strange things and outlandish challenges waiting for poor Ranko. Typically, through her sharp wits, amazing skills, and sheer luck Ranko can overcome almost anything that comes her way, returning things to normal, or at least as normal as it gets for her...

[collapse=Kinks and Fetishes]If my customs and kinks didn't fully cover it, here's some further explanation for what I like.

[u][b]Brainstorming[/b][/u]: Practically mandatory because I enjoy it so much. Bouncing ideas around and exploring different possibilities is a lot of fun and helps us to clarify what we each want. Some surprises are nice, but it's better that we know what we're getting into, instead of wasting hours getting things rolling, only to be completely let down when one or both of us aren't really into it. Brainstorming is also really fun because it gives us a chance to see if there's any actual RP compatibility and gives us a chance to get to know each other.

[u][b]Roleplay Focus[/b][/u]: There's a whole lot of stuff that I like, but sex is low priority. Rarely, if ever, will I want to do something that's just straight up about hooking up and fucking some other character. If this seems odd to you, let me explain further. I like transformation, character development, meaningful interaction, interesting stories, and most of all, I love creativity. Interesting and creative ideas and unique scenarios get me all hot and bothered way more than just boring ol' sex. Now, I'm fine with sex happening as part of the roleplay, but not the focus. So, if you are coming to me with the intention of a quick type-fuckin', you've got the wrong profile.

[u][b]MILF-ification[/b][/u]: I'm practically obsessed with the idea of MILF-ification. A combination of age progression, weight gain, feminization, and potentially some pregnancy. Taking someone young like Ranko and turning them into a pudgy, housewife, completely with large, slightly saggy breasts, wide child-bearing hips, a pudgy out-of-shape body, and just a touch of wrinkles. There's so much I love about this and I'm practically addicted to the idea of turning poor little Ranko into someone's ideal waifu. Steal away her youth, ruin her figure, force her to becoming your perfect motherly dreamgirl. Bonus points if we can involve a full wardrobe change, complete with lacy lingerie, v-neck sweaters, tight skirts or tighter jeans, high heels, a bit of make-up and jewelry. Maybe a trip to the salon to get her a haircut befitting a woman of her age?

This is particularly high on the "degrading" transformation list, for me. It combines so many aspects that would wreck Ranko's pride and force her into a new role that's the complete opposite of her usual persona.

[b][u]Weight Gain & Body Expansion[/u][/b]: Getting big and fat! If it weren't obvious enough yet, I kind of like this sprinkled in with a lot of my kinks and fantasies. Everything from adding a little pudge to plump out Ranko's curves, to making her so big she can barely fit through doors. The whole idea of ruining a slim and athletic figure like Ranko's and making her slow and clumsy in the process. Or overemphasizing her feminine qualities, making it impossible for the tomboy to hide her figure under loose clothes and also making her need extra feminine underwear to support her extra large assets. Especially fun if you toss in lots of teasing, squeezing, measurement, and even extra embarrassing stuff like getting her fitted for new clothes.

When it comes to weight gain, my upper limit is just shy of immobile, which is still pretty large. Turn Ranko into a giant butterball who can barely fit through doors if you want, but she still has to be able to move, even if she's practically trapped by her own cumbersome body. I prefer to keep things clean, so no slobs, no belching, no farting.

[u][b]Attribute Theft/Swap[/b][/u]:Another HUGE favorite of mine. Trading, taking, or forcing certain physical, mental, or social traits has a ton of potential. It can be done in a superficial way, like stealing beauty or breast size, but you could also have someone steal Ranko's youth or pass off their unwanted years onto her, making Ranko older and the other person younger. You could also get more abstract and steal or swap things like social status or skills, and Ranko got both in spades! Who wouldn't want to put a super confident popular girl like Ranko in her place by stealing her protagonist status? Or how about stealing away her martial arts skills to make her helpless?

[u][b]Teasing and Gloating[/b][/u]: Nothing really turns a good transformation scene into a great one like some teasing and gloating. Never letting Ranko forget how much her body or behavior has changed. Constantly calling her names and prodding and groping her so she can't ignore it. Let her know exactly what kind of fate awaits her once you're done transforming her. Why wouldn't you incorporate this? It's what everyone does when they've defeated the once proud and powerful protagonist! Humiliate her by tasking her out around town for all her old friends and rivals to see what she's become! Rub it in her face!

[u][b]Bad Ends[/b][/u]: NO DEATH. Gotta stress that. Instead, "Bad End" as in our story concluding without Ranko miraculously finding a way to solve her problems and returning to life as normal. Stories where she ends up stuck and resigned to a less than glamorous fate. Forced to live out the rest of her days as a heavyset MILF, permanently stuck in the life of a hyper-pink girly girl, or maybe as her rival's living love-doll. Just a bit dark, but nothing guro-y or snuff-y

[u][b]Surgical/Medical Transformation[/b][/u]:Something I've had an itch for lately that's a different take on the usual magical hand-wavey stuff. Using science and medicine and plastic surgery to alter Ranko's appearance. Forcing her to get big fake looking breast implants or lip injections, for instance. Not really looking for the bloody details, but more of the implication that it's really permanent and not something that can just be undone if she finds a Magical MacGuffin or exercised away or whatever. Transformation with a bit of gravity to it, if you know what I mean.

[u][b]Dress up & Beautification[/b][/u]: Clothes make the woman, after all! I love this as a secondary or follow up to a transformation. Adding in a new wardrobe, makeup, and jewelry to really seal the deal. Frilly underwear and frillier dresses! Embarrassing housewife clothes! Ultra-feminine outfits that show off every bit of her altered body! Tight, just-too-small clothes that emphasize how fat she's gotten.

[u][b]Artificial/Plastic[/b][/u]: Kind of like bimbofication (but without the mental alterations), with Ranko's body being made to look fake and artificial or dehumanizing Ranko by making her into some kind of sorta-object. Like a living lovedoll with latex skin and obvious seams that she needs to hide, or something. Hard to say with this one. I haven't really had any experience with inanimate TFs so I don't know if I really like it or not. Interested in experimenting with the idea at least.

[u][b]Transformation Triggers[/b][/u]: In scenes where the transformation is drawn out, it can be really fun to incorporate some kind of trigger or catch to the whole process. Something that makes it accelerate or become even worse. Something that Ranko might not be able to stop herself from doing, so things spiral out of control as she's forced to sink deeper and deeper into her fate.

Typically, I find purely sex-focused scenes to be really boring, but something like having a transformation triggered by arousal or orgasm or denial can really spice things up. It can make things inevitable, with Ranko transforming the more turned on she gets, and the more she transforms, the more aroused she becomes, getting lost in pleasure, even though she desperately wants to stop. I love it when things slip out of control and end up even worse than they were originally going to be. The more she fights and struggles, the more she changes.

[u][b]Ranko's Male Side[/b][/u]: Let's not forget that Ranko is actually a guy who wants to be a man amongst men... Or so he claims. She's had odd dreams about some of the men in her life and almost got very intimate with a few of them on several occasions. Sealing Ranko's curse so she's stuck as a woman for the rest of her life would be a big deal, but altering and transforming her male side could be devastating too. Not to mention the possibilities for making her explore and hidden feelings she's denying or any deep biological urges that she might have.

[collapse=Scene ideas]
Not sure wha
[u][b]Wedding Bands[/b][/u]: A pair of magical wedding bands of mysterious origins. When worn by a man and a woman, the woman's physical appearance is put entirely under the control of the man wearing the other ring. After being tricked into wearing the wedding band, Ranko would be forced to play along with the whims of whoever has the other ring or face punishment. Maybe start with something embarrassing, like giving her larger breasts or a bigger ass and force her to do something degrading to have them shrunk back to normal. Of course she'll try and fight back or try to weasel out of it, so she'll need to be punished more. Take her youth away, weaken her muscles, inflate her curves even further, fatten her up until she can barely fit through the door. Soon, she's so worried about acting like the ideal housewife to please her new "husband" so she can undo the latest changes, that she's forgotten all about getting the ring removed.

[u][b]Status Theft[/b][/u]: Maybe your character is an unpopular girl in Ranko's class, or an overweight woman with out of control eating habits, or maybe just a middle-aged woman tired of being the neighborhood cougar. Then you've got someone like Ranko; Young, pretty, popular, athletic. Perhaps you want to teach her a lesson or temporarily get a taste of what it's like to be young again, so you use a magic artifact to steal away all her good qualities and give her all your bad qualities... But it feels so good to be in Ranko's shoes and you don't want to change back. Ranko wants to fight you and get back what you took, but she's too weak now. She's your helpless victim to tease and humiliate, stuck in your old life.

[u][b]MILF Therapy[/b][/u]: Based off the surgery idea, someone, possibly a family member or rival, could want Ranko to become a proper lady fit to be married off. So, they trick or force her to visit a trainer or expert who specializes in grooming people for marriage, not realizing that this means literally transforming people into suitable husbands and housewives. This could happen because Ranko's Mother has found out her secret and wants her to be more ladylike instead, or this could be the work of an opponent who wants to take the fight out of Ranko . Either way, Ranko ends up getting subjected to different surgeries and procedures and medicines to make her look like an ideal housewife: large breasts, a doughy, plump figure, and even making her look mature and more aged, with just a touch of slightly grayed hair and wrinkles

[u][b]Fat Implants[/b][/u]:You've tried to fatten up Ranko the old fashioned way, but her metabolism is just too strong! So you turn to the latest advancements in medical science to finally fatten up your rival: Full body implants! Like the name suggests, implants to enlarge every part of your body. Give her the body of a hugely fattened woman without any of the chance to lost the weight. They could be the high-end models, made to look ultra-realistic and indistinguishable from the real thing, or maybe you could cut some corners with the low-end unrealistic model and leave her with an embarrassing, bloated, swollen body that makes her look like an overfilled Ranko waterballoon.

[u][b]Personal Trainer[/b][/u]: Your character could be an overweight student looking to shed some pounds who asks Ranko to be their personal trainer. Their bad habits could rub off on Ranko, maybe literally, eventually leaving Ranko just as out of shape and overweight. Maybe there's some magic item involved to slowly swap the weight over to Ranko. She's such a strong girl, so surely she'll be able to work off all that weight on her own, right?

[b][u]Secret Desires[/u][/b]: Maybe Ranko has a secret fantasy that she keeps hidden because of how shameful or weird it is for a "girl" like her. Maybe she she secretly seeks out the chance to indulge it after coming across some vague message or ad or mysterious shop. She thinks it too good to be true, but goes for it anyways, imagining the results will just be temporary. After having her fun, she's horrified to realize that she's been changed permanently, and the effects don't wear off! A nice way to go from Con to Non-con.

[b][u]Defeated![/u][/b]: An enemy, perhaps one of Ranko's other rivals or someone new, has beaten Ranko. Usually she bounces back right away and finds a way to defeat them, but this time is different. This time they've used some forbidden technique or dangerous magical item to try and stop Ranko from being able to ever fight again. This could mean all of her strength has been stolen away or that her body has been drastically changed, or that she's starting to change. If your character isn't the type to wish any ill-will on Ranko, we could just have a third-party NPC inflict the transformation on Ranko and then play out the consequences.

[collapse=Extended Canon History]
For those who are unaware, "Mrs Ranko" is Ranma Saotome, main character of the classic manga and anime series [i]Ranma 1/2[/i] which was a martial arts-romance-comedy series. If you're unfamiliar with the series, I suggest watching some of it for free on Viz's website or on Hulu. Otherwise, just skim over this tab to get the basic idea.

The short version of the story is that Ranma is a young martial artist who has been training with his father since he was 2 years old to be a man amongst men. While training in China, Ranma's father took them to the cursed training ground of Jusenkyo, where Ranma fell into the magically cursed "Pool of Drowned Girl." Now, whenever splashed with cold water, he turns into a beautiful and buxom redheaded girl and only hot water can turn him back to normal his normal, male self. While female, Ranma typically goes by the alias "Ranko" to fool some of her dimmer rivals and enemies, but it seems like most of the more normal and mundane people around Nerima figured things out right away.

Now, Ranma resides in Nerima with the Tendo family, an old friend of his father who promised that one day their children would marry and join their households so Ranma could take over the Anything Goes School of Martial Arts. Ranma's Father makes a ton of promises like that. The two older daughters aren't interested, so they insist the youngest, Akane, be his fiance since Akane hates men and Ranma is only half man. Turns out Ranma is already engaged to several other women, and has people who are infatuated with his male and female form (some who don't even know that they are the same person). He also has a ton of martial arts rivals, constantly trying to best and beat him for one reason or another.

Ranma also has massive fear of all cats. He'll drop all bravado and confidence and scramble for safety when put in the presence of any cats. As long as he can get away, he's fine, but if he becomes trapped or overwhelmed by being too close to them for too long, he'll actually snap and begin acting like a cat himself. While like this, he'll chase bits of string, climb trees, or just curl up and nap in a sunny spot. If pushed to fight, all of his formal training goes out the window, and he fights more animalistically, though still maintaining his near-superhuman physical abilities. It's not until he's completely calmed down and relaxed that he'll snap out of it.

Additionally, there's a little secret to Ranma's signature pigtail. After eating some Dragon's Whisker porridge, Ranma's hair began to grow to incredible lengths. Only a sliver of dragon whisker can stop it from growing, which is why Ranma constantly keeps his hair tied in a single braid. If removed, his hair would start to grow again until it reached the floor and thensome.

The series ended with Ranma almost marrying Akane, but the wedding was wrecked by Ranma's various rivals and romantic interests so the author just kind of cut it off with them just going back to the status quo of attending high school and getting into wacky misadventures.
[/collapse]
[collapse=Personality]In the manga and anime series Ranma is a straightforward and honest young man, but he can also be tactless and naive. He tends to speak before thinking and often forgets to consider other people's feelings. This is all likely a side effect of being raised by a lousy father and spending most of his young life training and practicing martial arts, instead of having a normal social life.

All of that training and practice has made him exceedingly confident, cocky, and prideful. It's his pride that tends to cause the most problems and it's usually the easiest way to trick him into doing something. He'll accept nearly any challenge and take any insult against him very seriously. Should he lose, he'll obsessively work towards overcoming his weakness and pursuing whoever beat him until he can achieve victory. This typically works out for him, but it's also created a lot of bitter rivals and enemies. Despite all of that, Ranma is an earnest young man who is truly kind at heart. He'll fight with all his might for the sake of his friends and allies and he never shies away from danger, even when the odds are against him.

When it comes to his female form, Ranma can be a complex individual. On the one hand, turning into a girl every so often is the exact opposite of becoming a man amongst men.. But on the other, he seems oddly comfortable with it, even happy about it at times. He's not shy about his pride in his body and female sex appeal, and will often brag about it, especially to tease his fiance Akane. Even with him being comfortable with his female body on its own, he's still embarrassed by seeing other women naked and has lots of trouble dealing with certain aspects of being a girl, like wearing lingerie or shopping or men being attracted to her. Although, Ranma is actually a pretty decent chef thanks to some of her martial arts training.
