[b][color=fffbe5]Sector:[/color][/b] Sector 6 - Light [b][color=fffbe5]For/Against The Battle:[/color][/b] Put simply, Victoria is dead inside. She's justified her participation in the battle, seeing it as a chance to feel something or die standing for something. In a sense, she's hoping this Battle will either make her value her life or realize that it needs to be thrown away. [h2][color=fffbe5]Power Description:[/color][/h2] Light Manipulation - Victoria specializes in Hard Light constructs. Her constructs tend not to be overly elaborate as that takes time and effort she can't afford. However, what makes her formidable is her versatility with constructs. Many of her shortcomings (as compared to other members of her family) in her constructs and Light usage are solved by her ingenuity and methods for circumventing things like the inability to create large structures without sacrificing durability or her finite control over her constructs. She can absorb light from any source that produces (so most notably she uses the sun, but can also absorb the light from light bulbs and etc). -Her eyes are able to take in light and see in various wavelengths such as ultraviolet and infrared. [b][color=fffbe5]Power Weakness:[/color][/b] With most from Sector 6, her power is hindered in the darkness. She can generate her own light, but it comes at a price that has a high interest rate. Constructs she generates from her own light tend to be less durable than they would during the day, unless she focuses specifically on increasing their substance. [b][color=fffbe5]Weapon of Choice:[/color][/b] Victoria can generate beams and orbs of light for a variety of purposes. However, for the sake of ease, she tends to stick with a bow and light arrows. Her particular bow has a line of crystal running the length of it that she uses to reflect natural light and make her arrows stronger at minimal cost to her. She specializes in being versatile with her light constructs, displaying a good amount of control over their shape and appearance. [b][color=fffbe5]Fighting Skills:[/color][/b] Victoria is a survivor through and through. The skills she has honed have come from her time in the Sector 6 Underground Fighting Arena, when she started feeling societal dissociation. The Fighting Arena was her first attempt at feeling a semblance of a joy for life. The past 3 years have seen her rise to a slightly notable fighter in the Sector 6 Arena. [b][color=fffbe5]Personality:[/color][/b] To say she is distant and cold would be a severe understatement. Victoria won't speak to you unless absolutely necessary. Her silence carries as much meaning as her words (sometimes even more depending on her facial expression), and when she does speak she will not hold her tongue. Her words and word choice are measured and repeating herself is seen as an arduous task. However, she's not a bad person at her core. She doesn't go out of her way to maliciously attack others. And though she feels little to nothing for most people, she recognizes the value they hold in their own life. She envies that, but what's more is, she respects it. The young and innocent pain her and motivate her equal parts. Her view on the matter is that if she can't find the meaning in her life or the reason to persevere, then she should at least not hinder someone from living theirs. [h2][color=fffbe5]Biography:[/color][/h2] From an early age, Victoria was told constantly that she was meant to do something great with her life. Just short of being doted and praised, her family reminded her constantly of the potential she had, noting her apparent natural aptitude. However, Victoria didn't necessarily feel the same. And as time went on, she began to confirm that (in her own mindset, which was slightly biased). There was a nagging fear that followed her throughout her life, telling her that her life was meant as a cautionary tale to others: something to be told around campfires and pitied by 'wise' old men and women. However, her parents all but ignored the brewing turmoil in their daughter, drilling their craft of light manipulation into her. She spent arduous hours, days, weeks and months learning to craft her constructs to the specifications of a shallow and overbearing mother, fattened from a good life and an even better source of income. Her uncle seemed to be the only one who took an interest in the person behind the ability, opting to take her on a few expeditions with him. Though they didn't serve to completely relieve the mental ailment she held, it lightened her. The thrill of scouring for small treasures outside of their sector brought the shadows of legitimate smile to her face. Her parents, however, soon put a stop to that, touting that this life wasn't the one they had envisioned for their daughter. As she grew she began to seek thrills hoping to capture the joy and meaning she found in those handful of expeditions with her uncle. The mundane and ornate life not appealing --even revolting-- to her. Her thrill seeking eventually landed her in the Sector 6 Fighting Arena where she used the training and survival skills from her family and applied it to the ring. Each punch and jab served to lighten her mental load a little. She didn't have to think, she just had to fight. It was a welcome distraction and she became adept in the arena quickly. She was by no means the best, but she was a notable fighter, especially considering her age. It was a life she kept secret, as her family would most certainly disapprove. However as most highs go, this one she eventually built a tolerance to as well. It was then that she finally turned a wary yet desperate eye to THE Arena: The Battle of the Leviathans. And as luck--or cursed fate-- would have it, she soon found herself actually tossed into the middle of it... [b][color=fffbe5]Likes:[/color][/b] Streams of water, open air and silence. She's an observant girl who processes almost everything around her. When it gets to be too much, she likes to retreat within herself in peaceful surroundings. [b][color=fffbe5]Dislikes:[/color][/b] Ignorance, loquacious people, aimless people (they remind her too much of her own struggles) [b][color=fffbe5]Fears:[/color][/b] Closed spaces. The future - she's terribly afraid of what it will bring and if the events of the Arena don't finish her off, she might just off herself to save herself from living a life of uncertainty. [b][color=fffbe5]Weaknesses:[/color][/b] Victoria is slight of frame. Though she is much tougher than she looks, her body is still small. She's kept it this way to explore the different nooks and crannies of her sector (along with the ruins her family would take her to, in an attempt to explore and recover artifacts).
