Name: Líadan Silverstein
Nickname: Grey, (The) Ghost girl, (The) Wraith.
Age: 17
Race: Human
Appearance: Líadan is a tall, slender young woman whose most distinctive trait is her ashen complexion. Her dull green eyes often have a gloomy look on them which, coupled by the seemingly permanent bags under her eyes, give her an overall downbeat expression. Her messy white hair is a clear hint to the fact that she cuts it herself.
More often than not, Líadan is seen wearing a large white coat—Hecate's Embrace—fastened to her body via a great number of belts which has extremely long sleeves, and knee-high leather boots. Under it, she wears the typical Illuminate female school uniform.
Personality: Quiet to a fault, Líadan is an extremely awkward person who has a great deal of problems when it comes to social interactions. In addition to that, she's quite distrustful to strangers, excessively noisy persons and Faunus.
A reclusive bookworm, she spends most of her time with her nose buried in whatever book catched her eye at the moment, wether it be a horror story to an antiquated encyclopedia. Most of the knowledge she gains from this routine remains in her memory for a couple of weeks, were she eagerly awaits for someone to listen to her commentary about the book, one of the few things she's able to talk about without any kind of inhibition.
History: Lìadan was born in the Viridian Fields, a small rural town on the countryside of Vale, in the belly of a numerous and well-mantained family. Possessing the largest farm in several miles around, the Silverstein Household provided with a great deal of the vegetable production of both the Viridian Fields and of neighboring settlements, earning a respetable reputation among merchants.
However, this only led to the Silverstein's downfall when a large drought destroyed all of that year's production. The head of the family —Líadan's grandfather— tried to keep the Household in the same respectable position it had before, but it only ended in disaster and led to every member of it dispersing around the world in order to seek fortune. Líadan, being 11 years old at the time, was taken by her older brother and sister to the city of Vale, where they wanted to lead her in the way of a huntress.
Sadly, both of her older siblings had a rough time finding any kind of job and they ended up living in the slums and partaking in illegal activities in order to pay for Líadan's school: her brother turned into a contrabandist, and her sister took a job as an exotic dancer in a low-life pub.
Surrounded by humanity's filth, Líadan tried to enjoy her time at the combat school but her dull demeanor ended up turning people away from her. Her sister tried to liven things up for the girl by teaching her how to dance. She was surprised when she found out Líadan had integrated those same dance moves in a combat scenario when she had enough practice with them, so both her and her brother decided to gift Líadan with some kind of weapon. He cashed in a favour a weapon manufacturer owed him and tailored Hecate's Embrace, and she gifted Líadan with Sirocco, a pair of boots she used to protect herself from leecherous customers whenever she needed to. With those new weapons at hand, the young girl took the Illuminate entrance exam and managed to pass it, earning a place in the famous academy at the time both of her siblings began to travel towards Mistral, where one of their uncles had started a Dust mining operation. This left Líadan alone to face her hardest challenge: the Illuminate Academy.
Weapon: Hecate's Embrace: Besides being a comfortable winter get-up, her coat doubles as her signature weapon along with a durable armor. The sleeves of Hevate's Embrace have several threads hanging from their unusual length which have small but sharp steel blades sewn onto their tips. The belts and the coat itself is made of a resistant fabric, the purpose of the former being the storage of Dust in order to support Líadan's combat style: Wind Dust is stored in the sleeves and Steam Dust in the torso.
Sirocco: Líadan's boots can also function as a weapon, their tips reinforced with metal and the heels serving as a Wind Dust storage compartiment, which is used to speed up their user, provide with a higher jump height and, overall, provide an increased maneuverability.
Semblance: Razor Wind: Líadan is able to launch sharp air-based projectiles akin to a sword's blade, their size and strength varying on both the oxygen in the enviroment and Líadan's Aura.
Dust: She mainly uses Steam Dust, along with a smaller amount of Wind Dust.
Other: Her favorite food is dark chocolate, although it's a dessert more than anything.
