| Tamara Brooks "The heart guides all things. I will follow my bard and wherever her heart leads us. That is what I must do." Persona Type:Initial Persona's Arcana:Lovers Owner:Rin Akinyi Persona Appearance:A young girl with long platinum hair that ends in brilliant colors wearing an old Victorian black dress with a piano like style at the hem of it. She stands at a short 5' 6'', only gaining a few inches with the healed boots she wears. She also has long black laced gloves that reach up just above her elbow. She wears black earrings as well as a black hair piece over her hair. Aside from that, she carries with her a stuffed bunny with what appears to be a microphone on the top of its head and an oddly ornate hand axe. Persona Background:"Tamara was incredibly dynamic, charismatic, energetic, a vortex of passion, love, and talent. When she got excited about something, there was no stopping her. And she got excited about a lot of things. When that happened, she was 100% there and never imagined that her students or others might not be as excited about a project as she was." ~ Netsky - Long Bio:
Tamara Brooks, the fiery conductor and Director of Choral Activities at NEC from 1989—2000, died May 19 of a heart attack. She was 70.
A Juilliard-trained pianist and conductor, Brooks was a pioneer, leading choral and orchestral concerts and running a music school (the New School of Music in Philadelphia) at a time when women musicians were only beginning to assume such leadership positions. She conducted ensembles around the world, and was principal guest conductor of the Istanbul Symphony in Turkey, conductor of the Cyprus Broadcast Orchestra and guest conductor of the Mozarteum Orchestra (Salzburg). She was also Music Director and Conductor of two bi-national music festivals on the island of Cyprus (bringing Greek and Turkish musicians together), where she held a Fulbright Professional Grant and designed the music curriculum for Cyprus’ first school of the arts. She was conductor of the Musicians without Borders Bridge to Peace project in Holland and Poland.
Brooks founded and was Music Director of Sequenza (a professional instrumental ensemble devoted to contemporary music in Philadelphia) and Music Director of Mendelssohn Club of Philadelphia for 11 years, one of America’s oldest and most distinguished choruses. With the Mendelssohn Club, she conducted a Philadelphia Academy of Music and Carnegie Hall series and made a Grammy-nominated recording of choral music of Vincent Persichetti. She recorded for Musical Heritage, Arabesque, Centaur, Neuma, Music & Arts, and RCA.
Combining her conducting career with a love of teaching, Brooks served on the faculties of Mount Holyoke College, the State University of New York at Albany, Haverford and Bryn Mawr Colleges, University of Iowa, Hamilton College, as well as NEC. She had also been a guest professor and conductor at Syracuse University, Osaka College of Music and Kyoto City University of Arts in Japan, the Glinka conservatory in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia, and the Sarajevo conservatory in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
At NEC, Brooks conducted many of the major works for chorus and orchestra, with particularly memorable performances of Bach’s St. Matthew Passion (to a standing room only audience), the Poulenc Stabat Mater, Mendelssohn Elijah, and the Verdi Requiem. Her range extended from the 12th Century composer Hildegard von Bingen to John Cage, Michael Tippett (in photo, right), Witold Lutoslawski, Gyorgy Ligeti, NEC faculty composers Robert Cogan, Pozzi Escot and Alan Fletcher, and then-graduate student Lior Navok.
Of her Verdi Requiem, music critic Richard Dyer wrote in The Boston Globe that Brooks’ performance was “the clear winner in this season’s Verdi Requiem contest.” The other “contenders” (who performed within the same three-month period in 1992) were the Boston Philharmonic and the Boston Symphony Orchestra, which featured soloists Deborah Voight, Luis Lima, Agnes Baltsa, and James Courtney. Calling the performance a “sublime, spiritual experience,” Dyer said, “everything was drawn out of the music and the situations it depicts and embodies; nothing was superimposed. And this made every moment of it profoundly original…Everyone sang within what they had and with the purpose of personal expression. Though there were plenty of soaring climaxes, this wasn’t a blow-out Verdi Requiem; it spoke to humanity’s most intimate fears, hopes, and confidences, and it compelled the active participation of the audience’s feelings, too. More than once I wept.”
Netsky got to know the conductor well when he invited her to lead the choral music in the 1998 Taste of Passover television program he was working on for PBS—a show produced by NEC Trustee and From the Top founder Gerry Slavet. Brooks threw herself into the show, which was recorded in NEC’s Jordan Hall and involved over 200 NEC students. The show was so successful that the organizers collaborated on a sequel, Taste of Chanukah, a year later. It was while working on these two shows, that Brooks met Theodore Bikel, the great Broadway and film actor, folk singer and musician. Netsky remembers that the two “really hit if off” during the filming of the second show and “after that they were nearly inseparable.” They were married in 2008.
Following upon the two Taste of … shows, Brooks entered a new chapter in her performing life, that of folk musician. “She was not only a fiery conductor but an excellent pianist who could play the whole orchestral repertory on the piano as well as the whole piano repertory,” Netsky said. Folk music was “another unconquered frontier.” After some coaching from Netsky, she became Bikel’s accompanist, having learned to move past playing from score and into a more swinging, improvisatory idiom. “After that, there was no stopping them,” Netsky said. The new partnership was also liberating for Bikel, who “had previously just had his guitar. With Tamara as his accompanist, he could broaden his repertoire.” The couple toured around the world, often giving performances dedicated to world peace and reconciliation. These included the 2005 Bridge to Peace tour of Holland and Poland with an orchestra composed of Christian and Muslim survivors of the war in Bosnia. More recently they led Bridge to Peace residencies at Syracuse University, Georgetown University, Vassar College, Miami’s Jewish Film Festival, and New York City’s Museum of Jewish Heritage.
In 2009, the couple celebrated Bikel’s 85th birthday with a concert in Carnegie Hall to benefit the Juvenile Law Center. It featured a galaxy of stars including Arlo Guthrie, Peter and Paul (of Peter, Paul, and Mary), Netsky, Alan Alda, Rosemary Harris, David Amram, the Klezmatics, Artie Butler, Patricia Conolly, Judy Kaye, David Krakauer, Tom Paxton, Susan Werner, and Michael Wex.
Whether as teacher or performer, Brooks saw music as the medium to unite human beings, and the fundamental musical experience was that of song. “In its purest form, singing is the ultimate communication of music from person to person,” she once said in interview. “What music is inside us helps define us as human beings.” And so the study of music had to be about more than perfecting one’s technique. “Studies are about standards, about the history of one’s own craft and literature, about the importance of art in the world and what it says about prophecy and the human condition, about speaking the truth…We are transmitting views and ideas and warnings and prophecies that are about the essence of life.”

Persona Name: Tamara Brooks
Type of Damage: Wind, Enhance
Description: Tamara hums an enchanting melody that surrounds the battle field. Her presence is seen as it usually is before her body suddenly becomes bloodied and face obviously more estranged and violent. The conductor then rushes towards her opponents and brings her axe down upon one of her enemies, dealing Wind damage twice upon one foe as well as giving the DJ a 20% boost in defenses for the next three turns. Human Skills:Human Skill Name: Feel That Sweet Vibe!
Persona Name: Tamara Brooks
Tier: Tier 1
Cost: 8 SP

Persona Name: Tamara Brooks

This pet will appear at the beginning of any battle and boost the DJ's MEnd by 5%. Outside of battle, Rin can be seen with the pet at all times, though, it can only be seen by those with powers of there own. The pet itself is quite small, standing at only a foot tall and weighing virtually nothing.- Image of Virtual Pet:
Human Skill Name: Binding Bee
Persona Name: Tamara Brooks
Tier: Tier 2
Cost: 12 SP
Description: At the beginning of each battle, Rin will be capable of summoning a bee like creature to her side. Rin then can have the bee like creature bind Rin and one ally together for the next three turns in a battle, effectively dividing up any damage either receives amongst each other. For example, if Rin were to take 10 damage from a single target attack, the damage would be divided between her and the bound person, respectively, each person would receive 5 damage each. This, however, doesn't work on multiple target spells and is limited solely to single target spells and or attacks. In case of a critical hit or super effective spell, the damage would be divided up like normal, however, the bound person will not be downed. For example, if Rin was hit by an agi, the damage would be divided evenly but her bound ally would not be downed like she would be. Outside of battle though, Binding Bee holds the same properties as Mellow, being seeable and tangible only by people with powers. Rin and her bound partner can't use the 'Not Today' skill on each other.- Image of Binding Bee:

| Allright, if you can, add in the height of your Persona.
Also, both a Block and a Strength require a weakness, thus you'll need two of them if you want to keep this.
The rest looks good. | |
