[img]http://th03.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/i/2010/228/6/f/Battlefield_by_PeterPrime.png[/img] [b]Name:[/b] Alicia von Eternus [b]Gender:[/b] Female [b]Race:[/b] Human [b]Faction:[/b] Luminous Knights [b]Personality:[/b] Emotionless and distant - that's how everyone would describe the wonder child. Her upbringing left Alicia with little to no social skills, or people to use them on. For better or worse, she is completely straightforward. She will always speak her mind, no matter how brutal her honesty will be. The very few friends she found during the years as an initiate all attest that she has a warmer, undiscovered side. [b]Bio:[/b] Daughter and heiress to the richest and most influential man in Altea, the "Wonder Child" joined Luminous Knights as an initiate at the minimum allowed age - 16. At that point her whole training and subsequent service was more or less a formality. But it wasn't because she received any special treatment or anything - she already was a better warrior than most of the trainers tasked to instruct her. For Alicia, the grueling exercises were barely warm-up, and combat training would end up with the instructor on the ground. The longest an instructor stood on his feet was three seconds. Hence the nickname of "Wonder Child". The few friends she found during that time learned the horrifying reason why. Her training started as soon as she could walk - at the age of three. Alicia's father hired an instructor to teach her an exotic martial art, and to hone her into a perfect weapon. Both parts succeeded. Except there was nothing left of a girl named Alicia. [b]Stats:[/b] STR: 8 AGI: 10 PER: 10 INT: 4 WIS: 5 CHA: 3 [b]Spells:[/b] [list] [*][b]Sword of Judgement[/b]- Conjures a projectile in shape of a sword, floating above her and following Alicia at all times. Up to four can be maintained at any given time, and they can be launched at any target anytime Alicia wills it. Swords of Judgement are used in all other spells. [*][b]Revealing Light[/b]- Detonates a Sword of Judgement to disperse it's energy in a wide area. While this has little to no power to hurt mages, it will greatly interfere with non-mental illusions and invisibility, as well as other wide area of effect spells. [*][b]Entrapment[/b]- Commands the swords to circle around the specified target instead of following Alicia, effectively trapping them unless they can somehow slip out of the circle of swords following them. [/list] [b]Skills/Techniques:[/b] [list] [*][b]Etra-Shi[/b] - The exotic and nearly forgotten martial art, supposedly of elven origin. This fighting style consists of using two long swords of differing lengths and weights in sweeping, spinning motions. Etra-Shi puts massive emphasis on enemy prediction and split-second planning. When properly executed, it looks like a mesmerizing dance of blood and flying limbs, where each attack misses the user completely as she cuts through the opposition. [*][b]Battle Trance[/b] - The key to Etra-Shi, Battle Trance is a form of meditation. The user purges her mind of all emotion and thought, leaving the mind solely focused at the combat at hand. For the user, it's like the world became slower, allowing her to move with inhuman precision. However, this technique is extremely taxing on both mind and body, and when it ends, the user will be out of the fight. Alicia can stay in Battle Trance for a minute. Then she requires at least a day of rest before using it again. [[b]While Battle Trance is active, Alicia's PER and AGI is doubled.[/b]] [*][b]Battle Tactics[/b] - Alicia is well taught in command and flow of battle, making her a capable, yet inexperienced leader. [/list] [b]Combat strategy:[/b] The first thing Alicia will do is to gauge the enemies. Note the weapons her enemies use, their positions, their stance. From there she forms a basic plan. Conjuring up 4 Swords of Judgement, she will charge into combat with Battle Trance, and for all intents and purposes she'll be an one woman army, at least for a minute. [b]Equipment:[/b] [list] [*][b]Izanagi & Izanami[/b] - The twin swords Alicia wields, bearing the hallmarks of Whedius - Master Dwarven Smith. Outclassing even most paladin arsenal in their quality, these swords are worth a literal fortune. [*][b]Valkyrie's Armor[/b] - The lightweight and extremely sturdy armor which, while not as tough as plate armor, allows Alicia complete freedom of movement. Bears the hallmarks of Whedius. [*][b]Bloodline Seal[/b] - Alicia has a red, massive, weird tattoo on her stomach. As far as she knows, every member of her family has one, as it is tradition. Those who seen it claim it creeps them out. [/list]
