Mind if I take a shot?
Ranma's Name (If different from Ranma): Ranko (Stage Name: Cherry Crystal)
Story Ranma's from: Tarnished Reflection
Appearance changes (From canon Ranma): Wears casual Western clothings normally and has sparkly hair. Obviously female with a hint of sex appeal.
Basic Ability List: Ki/Chi manipulation, Able to project her emotions through singing. Only knows the most basic of martial arts in terms of physical abilities, but very fit.
Minor Summary of Ranma's changes from canon (Or how he is in your fic.): Ranko was once part of Ranma, but spilt so that Ranma can live with Akane and fulfil all the different family honors. She imbodies all of Ranma's empathy, parts of his morals, and ki abilities as well as the carefree attitude he had.
However, she lost all her muscle memories as well as the most of the physical aspects of Ranma. She cares less about honor than Ranma, but has the compasion to make up for it. Ranko doesn't have Ranma's drive to be the best, or the drive to fight, so she only practices martial arts as a hobby.
After being seperated, she left Japan and became a pop-star in China and eventually America. She channels her ki abilities into her singing, which can preform minor psychic healings as well as affect the mood of the people she's singing to. She made a name for herself, but never kept in touch with those back 'home'.
10 years later, she returns to Nerima to find that her male counterpart (who took up Ranma's name) had 'tamed' Akane, and a few people had 'mysteriously' disappeared. It turns out that without the parts that Ranko embodies, Ranma had became a rather cold hearted psychopath that cares only about what he wants and became extremely traditional. He was slowly regaining his ki abilities, and eventually came to a showdown with Ranko - he wanted 'his' Ki abilities back, and was willing to kill Ranko to get it.
The last thing Ranko remembers is Ranma's fist going through her chest and out the back, while still holding her heart in his hand. It seemed that he had learned the Yama-senken and used it on her in order to kill her...
