[edit] Appearance
Laki is a tall, black-haired woman, with two large bangs parted to either side of her face on the front, and a long and elaborate ponytail on the back. She has dark green eyes, and her lips are apparently covered with pink lipstick. Like all of the Shandians, she has two little wings on her back. Laki's outfit consists of a light purple cleavage revealing tunic and light-red pants, reminiscent of the ones worn by Native Americans, that are open on the inside of her legs, with matching colored shoes.
[edit] Personality
Laki is a brave, kind hearted Shandian woman who likes to make others happy. According to Wiper however, she worries over small things (such as Aisa's bag of Vearth) when she should be focused on the bigger goals (such as winning back their homeland so they never have to fight for just one bag of Vearth ever again).
[edit] Relationships
She is good friends with Kamakiri and Aisa, the latter of the two she would do anything to make happy.
Her relationship with Wiper however is a sharp contrast to her other relationships where she appears frightened of his violent nature, while she knows he wants the best for their people she does not like his temperament. She is however one of the few of his warriors to ever try to protest against a decision of his. Despite her differences with him, she remained loyal and supportive of him throughout their battle with Enel and his warriors and cared enough about him to try and warn him about Enel's power. By the end of the fight, she and Aisa both look at Wiper in a different light due to his willingness to sacrifice himself for the cause.
[edit] Abilities and Powers
She uses a rifle as her weapon of choice, and she was seen carrying a small shield on her left arm. Like the other Shandians, she can use Jet Skis (ジェットスキー, Jet Skis) quite proficency for in-air transportation. Laki is also quite resistant, as she took a mighty electricity-based attack from Enel and was still able to stand up later.
[edit] History
Being one of the Shandians, she was born in the sight of war. She, together with her Shandian friends was told about the story of Calgara by the Chief.
[edit] Enel's Survival Game
She was first seen at a meeting with the other Shandians discussing the incident on Angel Island. She told Wiper that the enemy's enemy was their comrade, like Gan Fall, whom he had rejected, and in return he told her that she must not join the battle.[1] Aisa then is asked by Wiper, clinging to Laki in fear, whose voice disappeared. Laki later learned that there are other people besides Gan Fall who are battling. Laki takes Aisa's purse in order to please her by gathering Vearth.[2] Together with the warriors, they start moving to the God's Shrine, where she and the other Shandians confront Gedatsu and Ohm. The battle lasts long until Kamakiri gets wounded forcing them to retreat.[3]
Outside of the forest, Laki tried to pick up some Vearth but Wiper stopped her. Kamakiri appeared and states that there is no need to get a sack full of Vearth if they take back the island. Wiper then states that the ones who will come with him must know how to leave behind a wounded ally and that their next destination will be God's Shrine. Laki remained by herself to re-gather the Vearth. Later on she runs into Kamakiri lying on the ground, and he pleads with her to try to stop Wiper, and to tell him to not use the Reject Dial as it won't work on Enel.[4] After the conversation with Kamakiri, she started to search for Wiper. She soon reached the upper level of Upper Yard and found Wiper there, then tried to tell Wiper what Kamakiri had told her but Eneru suddenly appeared. To no avail, she attempted to shoot at Enel before getting struck by Enel's lighting and being left unconscious.[5]
[edit] End of 400 Year War
The last time she is seen taking a walk on the Vearth with Norla, Conis and Aisa.[6]
