Going to bed now, so just posting what I have so far. I've been answering the questions without any real order, so sorry if some things I mention in any section aren't really explained yet. ^^;
It's very much a work in progress.
And now edited with a bit more, but still not quite finished.
Name(s): Lana Hazen Age: 13, more or less looks her age Gender: Female Personality: Lana tries to give off the impression of being stoic and aloof, but she really isn't at all, and that facade is very easy to break. In reality, she's somewhat quiet, but cares greatly about the people around her and quickly becomes attached to anyone who's nice to her (oftentimes more literally; she likes to hug the people she's closest to a little too often). Lana is constantly curious, and very interested in engineering in particular. She often spends her free time taking things apart to figure out how they work and trying to put them back together. She's not great at it, but she's learning, and because she enjoys it even when she messes up, she gets a lot of practice in and is constantly improving. Lana also listens to music near constantly whenever she's alone. Music helps her relax, and she frequently hums to calm herself down when she's nervous. In battle, Lana often reverts to her fake stoicism even around people she's close to, because she's associated that personality with strength, and she's most desperate to come across as strong in those situations. (WIP)
History: Lana grew up with her father and older brother, as her mother died in childbirth. Her father is an engineer, and has had to move around a lot for different projects, so Lana has lived in many different places throughout her childhood. She's still kept in contact with some of the friends she's made with each move. Lana is very close with her father, and he's always been willing to answer her many questions. However, since her father works long hours, a lot of her time was spent with her older brother watching her. The two of them have a love-hate relationship. They definitely both care about each other, but they don't have very many interests in common, so they've always been a bit distant. Lana's brother is also jealous of Lana to an extent, as she has an overall better relationship with their father and he's given her more attention. At times this has caused him to snap and act condescending toward Lana over minor annoyances, which has only served to worsen her inferiority complex. That lack of self-worth is a major reason she's a magical girl today. Being a magical girl helps her feel like she's doing something that can make a difference, and ties in with her obsession of convincing herself she can be strong. (WIP)
Magic
Style: Rapid Close-Range Assault. Her magic is built around physical attacks and pure speed. She can do very little at a distance and has very few defensive options. Colour: Orange
Attacks:
Construct Form α: Lana holds a bar in each hand and channels her magic through them to create dual swords of magical energy.
Construct Form β: She joins the bars together and channels her magic in a similar way to create a large two-handed energy sword.
Construct Form γ: With the bars joined together, she instead channels her magic in a looser, more flowing way, creating a sort of energy whip.
Construct Form δ: With the bars joined together, she channels magical energy from both sides, with the bars serving as a grip in the middle. Since she hasn't really figured out how to fight with a long weapon held from the center, this usually serves no real purpose other than looking cool.
Spells:
Haste Aura: A spell that allows Lana to think and act in double speed, which also serves to increase the power behind her physical attacks. Also has the unfortunate side effect of causing her to get tired out much more quickly.
Dash Warp: A spell that teleports Lana a short distance away in any direction. Used mainly for dodging purposes, but leaves her a bit dazed and forces her to pause briefly to take in her new surroundings.
Stabilize: A spell to help her keep or regain her balance in a situation where she'd normally fall.
(Name WIP): Creates a small magic platform beneath her feet wherever she stands. When combined with Stabilize, these platforms can be at very odd angles.
Delay Surge: Her only real distance spell, launches a magic orb that will briefly mess with the perception of time of anyone it hits.
Special Moves:
(WIP)
Equipment
Magical Equipment: Lana carries two small bars she channels her magic through to use the attacks detailed above. Combat Equipment: She wears a small device that generates some sort of electromagnetic barrier around herself to make up for her magic style's lack of defensive options. Misc. Equipment: She almost always has her music player and headphones with her. The tools she uses to tinker with things are also usually nearby.
Other
Combat Experience: Inexperienced Hopes, Dreams, Goals: Lana wants to be an engineer in the future, and thus tries to learn whatever she can about anything that might help her with that. As a less concrete goal, she wants to prove to herself that she's capable of being strong. Fears, Flaws and Anxieties: Lana has a tendency to think of herself as weak and useless and see everyone else as better than her. She also feels she relies on the people she's close to more than she should, which makes her think she's incompetent on her own. These fears make her desperate to try to convince herself she can be strong, which is also why she tries to present herself as distant to strangers and why her magic style is built around all-out offense.
