April O'Neil (The Next Chapter)

April is a member of Team Turtles. She is learning to be a kunoichi from the turtles' father figure, Hamato Yoshi.

Appearance
April O'Neil is a teenage black girl with curly red hair styled in an afro. She has earrings on each ear, an unzipped yellow jumpsuit, red boots. She has a red tank top underneath her jumpsuit, along with a crystal necklace.

Personality
April is a smart, strange, and stubborn fifteen year-old tomboy with an indie rock vibe. April is also feisty and determined and quite resourceful. She is fiercely loyal to her mutant friends.

April is smart, friendly, and intuitive. Despite the weirdness she is thrust into on a daily basis since her attempted assassination by her boss, she has been able to acclimate eventually to where nothing at all seems to be too weird for her.

Like other incarnations of the character April was fearful of the Turtles and Splinter at first, then overtime started to warm up and became their ally. She is loyal and reliable to the Turtles, Splinter and Casey.

April gets along with Donatello the best out of the Turtles, as she's the only one who he can talk to about anything scientific.

Trivia

 * April's name comes from the Latin "aprīlis", meaning "of the month of the goddess, Venus". April's surname, O'Neil, is of Irish origin; derived from Irish Gaelic, it means "descendant of Niall" (the translation for Niall either being "Cloud" or "Champion"). Her surname implies that April has family roots in Ireland, making her ethnicity/nationality Irish-American.
 * In Japanese, April's name would be 四月 (しがつ, shigatsu), meaning "the 4th Moon"; (moon = month and April is the 4th month) or 卯月 (うづき, uzuki), meaning "Moon of the Rabbit". In Katakana, April's name is spelt: アプリル (Apuriru).
 * April is called "April-chan" by Mr. Murakami, who she likewise addresses as "Murakami-san".
 * April is now armed with a Tessen, (lit. a "Iron Fan", better known as a Japanese war fan), a weapon that Splinter had one day hoped to give to his daughter, Miwa, who April reminds him of. April will now be focusing her fighting style around the real-life Japanese martial art of Tessenjutsu. The tessen has a sharp edge when it spreads open, and can also be used as a throwing weapon.
 * Before settling on the tessen, the weapons April went through are a Chigiriki, (a staff with chain), a Mace, (a club), a pair of Kama, (small scythes), and a Manriki (a length of chain with weights on both ends).


 * April is revealed to have Chiroptophobia, a fear of bats.
 * There is a Pixar Ball on the back of her pants.
 * April's dad, Kirby prefers if April hung out with Donnie, but not with Casey.
