[hider=Hemlock Thorne] Name: Hemlock Thorne Age: 18 Gender: Male Species: Human Face: sharp features, Major scar across his left eye and across the right of his mouth. Hair: Very dark green, usually tied into a rough ponytail stopping just below his collar. Eyes: Very pale green irises, at a glance might seem blind. Skin: Pale/slightly discoloured. Frame: Slim, not particularly muscular. Height: 5'10 Weight: 65kg Personality: Quiet and introverted, he doesn't interact much with people he is unfamiliar with but will open up in time. He doesn't seem to get affected by things in public, but those close to him know how much it actually gets to him. He can't speak (he is mute), but instead communicates in sign language or by typing onto his scroll. Weapon: Compound Bow/Double-ended Polearm Weapon Name: [i]Black Rose[/i] Weapon Functions: In Bow form, It can fire multiple types of arrows, including Dust arrows, grappling hooks and tracking darts. In pole-arm form, it has no special features. The blades on each end cannot be fully retracted, only reduced in size to the size of large knives, while in pole-arm form they are 10in long and 3in wide. In pole-arm form, the bowstring loosens so the limbs can straighten and collapse before extending to a length of 5ft including the blade on each end. Armor/ Clothing: Wears a tattered dark green cloak and hood over a white shirt, brown waist coat and black trousers with brown boots. In combat, he wears leather armour covering his whole arms, shoulders and legs. He also wears two quivers (one with regular and dust arrows, the other with his trick arrows) under his cloak, on his waist so that he can draw his arrows faster. Aura: Purple Semblance Name: [i]Nightshade[/i] Semblance: When activated, Hemlock slowly drains the aura of his human opponents and damages Grimm through poison. It weakened its targets, making them disorientated and blurs the senses. The target will fall unconscious within 5 minutes if they can't resist the effect. Grimm are effected in the same way (weakening, blurry senses), and will die if held for long enough. The poison effect is usually applied to his arrows, but can also he applied directly by touch. It is more effective, but is more risky as well. Strengths: A Hunter among Huntsmen, he is skilled in stealth and solo operations despite his role within a team, but can also work within his team to provide precision support from medium to longer range. Weaknesses: Although his weapon had a close range transformation, he isn't as strong as other opponents and has a limited stamina so relies more on using his speed to end fights before they drag on. He also doesn't perform well when quickly put under pressure, usually relying on stealth to strike effectively. Bio: Raised in one of the smaller villages within Vale, Hemlock grew up on stories of Heroes and the monsters they fought. As he got older, those stories overlapped with those of the Huntsmen and Huntresses fighting against the Grimm. He found that it was his duty to protect his village and those like it as a Huntsman. He joined up with Signal Academy with the intention of enrolling at Beacon, where he was scarred before his aura was unlocked, but instead joined Lustre when his parents migrated to Vault. He is now a second year student within team (Insert team name here). [/hider] [hider=Fylla Mahogany] Name: Fylla Mahogany Age: 19 Gender: Female Species: Faunus (Bear Type) Face: Fairly soft features. Hair: Dark brown, slightly wavy, reaches just below her shoulder blades. Eyes: Dark green Skin: Mildly tanned Frame: Slight, but with noticeable muscle Height: 6'00" Weight: 60Kg Personality: A very patient and kind person, she is seen as the mother-figure of the team. She loves to help people and hates seeing others struggling or going through hardships, so she will try to do whatever she can to make it better for the person without being too invasive. She has a very long temper, but when it runs out she is a nightmare to behold. Whilst not outwardly aggressive, she shows no mercy to her enemies, be they person, Grimm or otherwise. Weapon: Heavy MG/Greatsword Weapon Name: [i]Hyperion[/i] Weapon Functions: Hyperion is a gigantic single-edged great-sword with a belt-fed .50 Calibre Machine Gun built into the top of the blade. There isn't much change between the two modes apart from the position of the handles. In sword form, both handles are parallel with the blade, allowing for her to swing the weapon with both hands, while in MG mode the firing handle bends at an angle and the carrying handle on top rotates 90 degrees, much like [url=http://datafortress2020.com/ab/image1762.jpg]this[/url]. It has a slower rate of fire than some other automatic weapons, but makes up for it in heavier damage. Armor/ Clothing: Dark green halter top, beige skinny jeans and brown ankle boots. Wears a dark brown jacket in the colder months. Semblance Name: [i]Stone Forest[/i] Semblance: Infuses her body and any object she is touching with her aura, massively increasing its resistance to damage, but vastly decreasing her speed and increasing her and the object's weight. If used in a bullhead, for example, It would be slower and more sluggish, as if carrying a heavy load. Strengths: Highly skilled with her blade and strong enough to wield it well, she can overpower most people her age, and even some Grimm. She is also very caring, which allows her to bond with people easily. Weaknesses: Because of the nature of her weapon, she doesn't have a high degree of precision in either form, relying more on overwhelming damage as a whole. Her caring nature can also distract her in battle, should a teammate be seriously wounded her concentration can slip, giving her enemy a chance to strike. Bio: The eldest sibling in a large family, she has always been caring for and protecting those around her. This extended into the desire to protect everyone, so she decided to become a Huntress for that exact reason. Having reached the formal age, she decided to enrol as early as she could, but family problems meant she was held back a year. Older than most of those in her team, she is a second year student as part of Team (insert name) [/hider] [hider=Ryuu Chroma] Name: Ryuu Iro Chroma Age: 18 Gender: Male Species: Human Face: Mildly chiselled face, fanged teeth Hair: Black, wildly styled with natural silver highlights. Eyes: Dark Grey, glassy Skin: very slight tan [hider=Appearance] [img]https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/83/f0/01/83f001b01237d32f5fbc6881b6a36c0d.jpg[/img] [/hider] Frame: medium-slim Height: 5'11" Weight: 67kg Personality: An honourable person, Ryuu values a code of honour towards others, such as only facing someone in a fair fight etc. He respects those that practice values like mercy and redemption, and is strongly against killing a surrendering enemy. If the enemy will not surrender, he will begrudgingly strike them down. His code of honour, however, comes second to how much he cares for his friends and allies, and he will not hesitate to throw away his honour to save a friend or innocent bystander. Weapon: Dust-powered/quick-draw Katana Weapon Name: [i]Kagayaki Ryujin[/i] or just '[i]Ryujin[/i]' for short Weapon Functions: When drawn, It was a vial of Dust inlaid into the back of the blade that it can use imbue the blade with that power. To change the dust within the blade, it is sheathed and a revolver-like mechanism switches the vial with the desired replacement. There is also a separate mechanism that uses Gravity-type dust to propel the blade outwards whilst simultaneously igniting some of the chosen dust to form an arc of energy corresponding to the dust's effect. This can used as a short-range ranged attack but dissipates after travelling 15 meters. Armor/ Clothing: Wears a long, dark grey robe with a silver lining and a silver dragon design running up the left side and coiling around his left arm, with three belts across the waist. Underneath is a high collar black top and dark grey jeans with black waraji-style sandals. In combat, he wears grey oriental-style armour on his wrists, shoulders and shins. Semblance Name: [i]Dragon King[/i] Semblance: Expands and hardens his aura to form a pair of blade-like dragon wings, which can be used to fly, attack or defend. He can also push his aura though his limbs (mostly into his sword) to empower his strikes, or to use a breath-like attack by forcing it into his lungs. This semblance requires Dust as a catalyst, in any form, and will take in the properties of that dust. For example, if he were to draw Fire dust from his sword, he would gain Fire breath, but if he were to grab raw Water dust he could use a Water cannon-like attack. While in use, the silver streaks in his hair and eyes glow with the appropriate colour, and dragon-like horns appear to grow from his head. Strengths: His speed and strength have been specially trained to compliment his preferred fighting style, using quick but devastating slashes. Also, his versatile semblance means he can adapt to a wider range of situations. Weaknesses: No forms of ranged attack mean he is vulnerable from a distance. He can also be baited into duels by insulting his pride. Bio: Wishing to follow in the footsteps of his father, and his father before him, Ryuu had been privately tutored by his village's swords master until he was old enough to enrol into one of the combat schools. While initially rejected because of his lack of formal paperwork, he was accepted into Lustre, so travelled to Vault alone to study there. He is now a second year student in Team (Insert Name) [/hider] I've got some 2nd year students here, if you want them.
