Layla

Summary

Story

Layla Li was quite a popular circus performer. She specialized in entertaining the crowd with motorcycle tricks and stunts whether it be riding on a tightrope, or circling around in a gigantic metallic ball-shaped cage. However, on a midnight ride, she was struck and knocked unconscious by a drunk driver on another motorcycle. Her body ended up flying over the handlebars and down a hill into a nearby lake where she then drowned.

When she arrived to the Underworld, she came across the Grim Reaper who began to tell her about her death and what had happened. Apparently, it was no drunk drive that had hit her. It was a member from a mischievous gang of escaped souls called the Ghost Hogs. Sensing potential in her biking skills as well, the Reaper made a deal with Layla. The Reaper said that if she could catch all the members of the gang and return them to the Underworld, he'd return her soul to her body so she wouldn't have to live in the Underworld.

The Reaper put her soul into a weapon that could possess and defend her lifeless body, allowing her to use it once more. This weapon is called a soul shield. With it she could perform several incredible feats of defense and strength in order to catch the members of the gang. Her heart does not beat, her brain doesn't work. All of her bodies actions are performed on command from her soul in the shield and will remain that way until she holds up her end of the deal. Thanks to her soul powering everything in her body, she does not need to sleep, eat, or drink.

Personality

Seeing as how she used to be a circus performer, Layla isn't very shy. She's quite social and does anything she can to entertain a crowd. She sometimes even uses her talents to draw out members of the Ghost Hogs. If it's for something harmless, she doesn't mind being a little manipulative, usually using her talents to get snacks and other treats even though she doesn't really need to eat. She is serious about fulfilling her promise to the Reaper, but she can't help making a big production out of it. She'll always pull off a wheelie while hand-standing on the motorcycle when chasing one of the Ghost Hogs down the highway.

Overall, she's a determined little runt, but can't help being the star of the show.
