game stances

game stanceTo show of her personality more then other character, Rinoa has been given more different stances to make her different then her comrades. Here is a ultimate list of Rinoa and her habit stances.

 

Movements

Rinoa is one of the few character that actually have a special walk a run ritme, but it's kind of in a clumsy way. When walking Rinoa's back is very straith forward and her hands are close to her body. Her legs go way beyond and behind, kind of like she is fasting herself to keep up, but that actually isn't a statement.

 

Her run movement is kind of lacks, she is morally jumping forward then actually running. I like this run movement from her, because it's something special rather then the other characters. Like when she is walking, her legs are going pretty high and backwards. Her arms have the same kind of twist like the leg, she is actually jumping and running at the same time.

 

Rinoa occassionaly has a problem controlling herself, most seen when she is nervous. When she is nervous, her walking movement is unsure. She is stretching her right leg behind her, in other words she let's it move across the floor. This is perhaps only seen once in the game.

 

Lying on the ground

Like otherwise Rinoa has different movements when laying on the ground. Her most favourite is the sleeping like a baby move, where she infact lies with arms close to her chest and legs high up.

 

A normal looking stance of her laying on the ground can be seen when she is unconscious. She lies on her left side with her right arm next to her face.

 

Sitting and kneeling

Rinoa has remarkable sitting movements, I love them all. The first one consist of sitting on the ground, but here she holds her knees up to her waist. She lies her arms on her legs. She occassionally moves her knees much closer to her body, sometimes aswell moving her hair over her ear. When she wants to stand up again, she moves up and holds both her hand on he legs for stability, she then comes up.

 

One of the more basic movements on Rinoa is sitting on a bench or a chair. There she will be sitting straith and with both hands on each knee.

 

Pretty rare seen, Rinoa sometimes plays with both her leg. Either this is from waiting to long or just boredom. Here she moves her legs up and down crossing down to each other. She also sits very straith to the back, so she is actually putting her weight into her arms.

 

Rinoa's most habit move is the kneeling, wether it is from curiosity, afraidness or caring, she occassionally drops down and leans on both legs. Her left arm lies near her body, while her right arm hangs next to her. She also does this when she wants to sit down on the ground.

 

Habits and flirtings?

Some points in the game when Rinoa is waiting or is getting bored, she grabs her elbow of the right arm with her left hand. This is one of the mere habits of Rinoa.

 

When Rinoa is unsure about herself, her feelings and the answer she gives or just to be flirty to that person in front of her, her 'no' answer shows of this expression. She actually starts to say 'no' by moving her left arm upwards and waving her hand.

 

Rinoa sometimes can be very pushy when she is flirting, or just if she needs a answer she really cares for she bows a little bit to the front closer to the person standing before her and both of her arms are situated on her back.

 

I've written this down many times throughout the pages of this site, but Rinoa sometimes takes her necklace in her right hand to find the spirit through the memories of her mother and later of Squall to make her stronger.

 

One movement gets me confused because I don't know what it exactly means, but at some point Rinoa puts both fists in her weist, this continuing with moving her head and moving her arms upwards and then downwards. I believe she does this whenever she feels emberassed or suprised.

 

The moment that Rinoa get's unsure about the conversation, she starts to move her with her feet over the ground in front of her, she'll also will bow a little bit, looking to the ground and moving her arms on her back.

 

There are some moments that Rinoa thinks (of course she can) things through, she shows this by holding her right hand infront of her mouth and her other arm crossed infront of her chest.

 

At some points in the game (two times), she has the ability to stop people by talking by moving her right hand up with the palm of her hand to sign them to stop and to listen.

 

Emotions

Rinoa shows many emotions during the game, that's because she is very sensitive. There are many ways to show her expression when she is confused. She moves slowly to the left and right and sometimes (ends this) by taking her necklace.

 

When she is scared or shocked she sometimes puts her hand in front of her mouth, this happens when something she can't answer on happens and/or when she is afraid of something that she knows. Kind of confusing...

 

Spirited

The first time we see Rinoa begins with a flirty move. She moves her finger in front of his eyes to make him follow her's and to make him talk by accepting the dance. It doesn't work actually, but he does laugh about it.

 

When Rinoa is happy about the choice that is made, she puts her hand to her chest or together and jumps a few times. She brings her arms over her chest down next to her and nods. She mostly ends this by walking or running away.

 

When she is really happy she jumps and puts her arms together, but slightly more activer the the previous move. She also tends to seperate her arms far from her body and stops with a big smile. Also rarely seen, greatest view when Squall is nearby.

 

Another rare seen happy movement of Rinoa is where she is hyper active and actually jumps in the air. She starts with a small jump and putting both hands in front of her mouth. She then relaxes and nods to her viewer. She then jumps into the air with her right arm high up and left one down. A very active movement.

 

Most common with characters in a game is the moment when they are giggling they put their hand before their mouth, this also seen with Rinoa. Although, when her movement isn't that of a giggle but a hard laugh, Rinoa crosses down both of her arms to her stomach and crawls down, a sign of a big laughter.

 

Whenever Rinoa tries to open up Squall, she uses flirty and denying moves just to reassure him. Here she turns her head far to the left and puts her arms crossed behind her. She also moves her right leg aside and leans on her left on. This is a movement that she denies as well as making fun with.

 

Rinoa is a girl that knows what she wants and often need a second word to make her's to come over better. She then bows a little lower, with putting her arms behind her. This is not the same as the other movement we see, this one makes her more openly and flirty like.

 

Opposite of Spirited

Rinoa's personality is really sensitive by many conflicts, she is easy to make happy, but also easy to make her angry or upset. Before Rinoa get's mad she first wants to gaze deeper into the distraction by bowing herself to that person and putting both hands on her knees. She occassionally turns around and walks away by a means of upsettement.

 

When Rinoa get's angry, shen tends to loosen up with her own personality and becomes much louder. Here she leans in and moves bot arms slighty up and down by a means of both defence and attack, to command someone most likely that he or she is wrong about the situation.

 

At some point in the game, when Rinoa get's irritated by someone, she starts to put her hands behind her waist as a means of being higher then the other person. This sometimes closly begon or followed by Rinoa putting her hand on top of her forehead and nodding 'no'. This is also kind of the same stance of Squall being emberassed.

 

At one point Rinoa is both scared as angry, this by bowing down, moving her arms close and shouting at loud, this mostly at the time Zell is being kicked.

 

There is only one person she rejects and that is her own father. Because she does not wish to see him nor talking to him, she pushes him away by moving her hand up and down as a means by 'go away'. Her father does know that he shouldn't say anything, but he does and leaves.
