Okay then, how's this one look?
NAME: Alice Drakeguard
NICKNAME: None in particular, but she likes to give nicknames to others.
GENDER: Female
AGE: 16
PARTNER: Yukito Hakura
ABILITIES: Can adjust her wavelength to match nearly any weapon, making her a particularly good meister in that regard.
EXTRA EQUIPMENT: None in particular.
PERSONALITY: A straightforward and simple-minded girl, Alice is the sort of person who powers over problems and bumps in the road with overwhelming pressure. She's both forceful and carefree, although at times this slips into the territory of being uncaring about the world around her. Despite this, she firmly believes in the good in other people and those that she can call her friends. She's also quite vain, but relishes in any sort of sparring or combat.
BIO: Alice is quite open about her past, proudly exclaiming whenever the need arises that she was born into a relatively wealthy family. She's quite happy to note that because of this, she was allowed into the most exclusive and expensive self-defense classes, along with explaining why she was accepted into DWMA.
FEARS AND WEAKNESSES: She's weak to trickery and flattery, falling prey to pretty words without much thought.
She has a deep-seated fear of the supernatural and disembodied entities, stemming from their inherent unpunchable nature.
OTHER: Spends an abhorrent amount of time fantasizing about her 'glorious future' every morning.

I'm fine with it if you are. Being a melee meister suits Alice better anyway.

NAME
Inigo de la Mancha
GENDER
Male
AGE
16
APPEARANCE
Inigo stands lean and tall, and gives off that sort of Hispanic charm you could find in some cheesy romance novel. He has short brown hair, parted on the left side, and his eyes of a notable green color. He typically wears a poncho over loose dress shirts, vests, and pants.
PARTNERS
Cynder's Next CS and Hikari
ABILITIES
Advanced Wavelength Flexibility - Inigo can perform Soul Resonance with multiple and different Weapons. Further capabilities to be unlocked IC.
Soul Menace - Yup. Ability and personal variations to be unlocked IC.
EXTRA EQUIPMENT
Inigo rides a black 1999 Suzuki Hayabusa. Additionally, despite being in possession of two Weapons, he likes to run around with a pair of mundane blades. Specifically, two spada da lato, side-swords.
PERSONALITY
An amiable young man with a zest for life, Inigo is quite an easy sort to get along with. He has a rather casual, easy-going attitude and takes a rather carefree approach to life. He regrets absolutely nothing he's done, didn't do, will do, or is doing, for that would mean he thinks it wasn't worth it in the end. He can also be very hammy and is prone to both scenery chewing and minor meta-dialogue. Beware.
He follows a code of chivalry drilled into him by his father from a very young age. As such, he conducts himself much like a knight - with honor and nobility. However, this code does absolutely nothing to stop him from snarking. And snark he most definitely will. He might be a gentleman, but that only means he can say un-gentlemanly things like only a gentleman can. Nor is he staunchly against breaking the rules to save them or do what is right, though he dislikes having to break them in the first place. Nonetheless, he never breaks his word and is easily touched by others' problems. If he chooses to protect someone or take on their burdens, he'll do his best until the very end - as a knight-errant should.
In battle, Inigo is a fierce, but balanced warrior who fights less with brute force and more with technique and finesse. He enjoys small-talk while combating worthy opponents, and doesn't really see why people feel they have to be antagonistic towards people they'll probably end up killing or inflicting injury to. One may think that his chivalry extends to the battlefield - which it does, don't get me wrong - but Inigo was also raised by his grandparents, who weren't necessarily very sporting individuals. While he does behave in a psuedo-knightly manner in day-to-day life, this isn't always the case when it comes to fighting. Sure, he's a proud warrior who'll duel honorably and won't back down from a fight just because he's losing, but that doesn't mean he won't 'adjust his tactics', so to speak. Inigo has an odd sort of logic when it comes to contests of arms: if duels are contests of skill, there's nothing wrong with using everything at your disposal. Of course, that's only specific to duels. In free combat, anything and everything goes. To contrast, if he's fighting against a worthy opponent he'll most definitely fight fairly in the traditional sense, if only to show his respect.
On a side-note, Inigo does not like 'all natural' foods and relishes in the consumption of 'fake' food, like chips, fast food, and such.
BIO
Inigo is a Hispanic young man hailing from Cadiz, Spain. His father was a rather boorish, old-fashioned sort who had an odd fixation on Spanish chivalric romance, a fixation which was only further enhanced by the de la Mancha family's ancestral role as knight-errants. From an astoundingly young age, Inigo was taught the way of the sword and to live by the chivalric code. Stuff happens, dad dies or gets killed or something, and mom ships him off to America to live with his grandparents in San Antonio, Texas.
Unfortunately, his history of wacky family hobbies doesn't end there. His grandparents were hardcore hunter-survivalist types, often bringing Inigo out into the wilderness for absurdly long stretches of time. In fact, he didn't even need an entire hand to count the months he spent at an actual home per year. It was during these frequent outings where they taught him a bunch of survivalist skills, such as making fires, hunting and gathering, setting up camp, knife fighting wild animals, etc. His grandmother was quite adamant on the latter bit, while his grandfather was more a 'just shoot the damn thing' sort of guy. He ended up learning both skills. More stuff happens, and he gets shipped off to the DWMA.
He doesn't really talk much about his past, nor does he particularly care to discuss, lament over, or brag about any events in his past - at least not without good reason. If asked about it, he will proceed to regale the asker with an dramatic, over exaggerated, and likely very false tale about his 'exploits' almost completely unrelated to anything he's actually done.

NAME
Ingeborg Leif Bengtsdotter
NICKNAME
Ingeborg "Shuwen" Bengtsdotter
GENDER
Female
AGE
21
ABILITIES
Hand to Hand Combat, Librarian
EXTRA EQUIPMENT
Eye Patches, Fake IDs, S&M Equipment
PERSONALITY
Living to the fullest is her motto. To live more than others- to be the angriest, to laugh the hardest, to cry the hardest, to hope the hardest, and despair the hardest. In other words, to be the greediest. That is the nature of Ingeborg, a person who enjoys whatever she does to the fullest. For her, it just so happens to be abusing her age of 21 to its fullest, annoying coworkers, and messing with students. She drinks the most, eats the most, and sleeps the most. Without a doubt she's a person without brakes, and is unable to stop something once she starts. Furthermore she is very blunt, and rarely if ever knows how to be tact about the world around her.
Has been said to be like a dirty old Uncle before, and she really is somewhat of a pervert. In combat situations or strategy meetings she is far more serious, but her mentality has and always will be "You can drink with your enemy during the day and kill them during the night". A horrible driver on paper, but in reality she is quite skilled, she just seems like she's going to crash every five seconds because she takes risks and is usually good enough to pull them off without crashing.
Dislikes people who resign themselves to have no control over their own actions. While she may be a car that is speeding down a hill without breaks, she is the one who decided to go down that hill without breaks. As a teacher, she tends to come and leave throughout the school as she pleases, and heaps all her work on assistants. Furthermore she constantly tries to butt into everything, from after school clubs and staff meetings and other more important things.
Has a tendency to get bored, and this tends to end badly for others around her. She truly can cause certain living hells for those around her without giving enough evidence to implicate her. Many a rival teacher and trouble making child has found thumbtacks in their chair, ink stones in their jacket pockets, and other worse things.
Ingeborg really does delight in seeing those peoples faces after her little games. Is probably a sadist.
BIO
Frequently called Ingeborg "Shuwen" Bengtsdotter, she is simply a human librarian. Death City has a very high tourism rate, and not everyone in the city is some sort of witch hunter. In this girls case, she is just a normal human from Stockholm, Sweden. Still, she is an excellent librarian who moved to death city on recommendation. She had neither a particularly bad or good life, and she came from a upper middle class family. She is multilingual and is capable of speaking most western European languages fairly well.
FEARS AND WEAKNESSES
She's a human in the middle of a group who can use magic or manipulate souls.
Her greatest fear is running out of money and being unable to purchase illicit goods.
Also, failing one of her mystery games.
OTHER
01 Peaceful Days
Though she has not had a good or bad life, Ingeborg has had a peaceful and comfortable life. It is not one of particular happiness or sadness, so it is without a doubt "peaceful".
One could say it is the life any normal person yearns for. However in reality this is not what normal people yearn for; humans want the most, more than anything else. They want to be acknowledged by others, and their deepest wishes and dreams are to be "great". In that way, she lives the life people should want to live, but in reality do not want.
Though this is all a digression, she is content with this life of hers.
02 Catbox
Though she seems like an honest person, she truly is vain at the core. Though her eye was clearly lost long before she ever entered Death City, this means how she lost her eye is an enigma. She accepts this whole heartily, and has a tendency of releasing various conflicting stories to those stupid enough to ask about her eyepatch.
The stories range from "alien abduction" to "Lost in an honorable pistol duel" to various other nonsensical accounts.
Rumor
Someone who constantly invents stories and tales that spread like wildfire across the city or school. They range from minor things to extravagant games that tug at the minds of various people. She will create catboxes that seem supernatural but are in reality the work of a normal human.
For example, the loss of faculty pencils is blamed on the ghost of a long dead teacher, or a invented spirit, etc. This is a tame example, and she tends to do extravagant things during large public events, such as festivals.
Naturally, every tale she crafts is worked so that she can't be implicated.
Eyepatch
Death City is a city not completely ruled by Meisters, rather, it could be said that tourists are a constant stream of revenue and population. To produce more revenue any tourist trap needs merchandise, and Death City is no exception to this pattern. Practically all merchandise is skull themed, naturally, because this is the city of the Shinigami.
However this presents some problems to the local population in the fact that most items are tourist themed. Skulls, skulls everywhere.
To Leif, who is normally laid back, this isn't a problem. However, in the instance of her eyepatch, it is a unique problem. All normal eye patches in the city have skulls on them, which means they'll make whoever wears them look like a pirate. Leif is not a pirate.
As such all her Eye patches are imported and bought from the internet. They aren't novelty items, and are actually pretty expensive. She has taken it as a hobby to own the latest in eye patch fashion.
Shuwen
A name given to her by close friends and some of the faculty in the school. In Japan there was a certain martial arts instructor who said "A Second Strike is Needless", and needless to say he could back up his words.
Though she may not look like it, Leif is a excellent hand to hand combatant, and could easily take the ICMAC in a storm. Her skill and natural aptitude towards Chinese Martial Arts and general hand to hand combat could've given her fame, but because of a simple error during her early fighting days, she fell from grace.
Needless to say, despite being at the level of a normal human in physical attributes, she reflects and enforces the cool discipline of martial arts on her enemies in any sort of combat.
She has actually tried to start a hand to hand combat after school club many times, but it never gets funding or rooms for unknown reasons. If those reasons were found out, she'd probably punch them in the face.
Librarian
Someone who looks after books. It really is as simple as that. In the modern era where computer technology reigns supreme, this job has been sublimed, and even books themselves are fighting a losing battle against electronic reading. However, in Death City she manages the School Library with some measure of pride.
Still, she is a lazy Librarian and tends to throw all her work at various assistants which she hired on using the schools budget. In the end that pride is just vanity, and though she does enjoy books, one of her assistants are probably better at being a Librarian than her.
Good at extorting funding from the higher ups, though. The library has all the latest books, and the best computer lab in the school.
NAME
Omi
NICKNAME
GENDER
Female
AGE
20
ABILITIES
Soul Envelop, Numerical Phantasm, Lance Skill, Prima Materia, General Witch Stuff
EXTRA EQUIPMENT
A really nice Spear, Raven Familiars, Aqua Vitae Prototype
PERSONALITY
Omi's true personality is nothing like that of her fake cover, Ingeborg. It is cool and collected, and she is constantly planning and trying to keep the initiative in all situations. She has no problem with killing others if there is a genuine need. She is not under the sway of magic, so this could be called her genuine and true personality, and it is a choice she made herself.
They have a distorted mentality compared to a normal human, but they are not insane or mad in the slightest.
BIO
Le Secret
Basic info in Other section
FEARS AND WEAKNESSES
Things not going according to plan, unless things not going to plan was part of her plans, in which case she's fine.
Tends not to take actions spontaneously unless forced to, and if that happens see weakness number one
Tends to underestimate Meisters, at least students
Tends to overestimate older Meisters and Witches
Really is a sadist
Probably has Chuunibyou. Probably.
OTHER
01 Yggdrasil
In Norse myth, the world tree and its roots are collectively called "Yggdrasil". It is the eternal world that holds aloft on its mighty branches the nine worlds. Further, it is the object that survived even the Twilight of the Gods, and humanity survives the end of the world by hiding within it.
In this story, Yggdrasil isn't a tree, it's an organization based somewhere in Scandanavia. It's a legitimate thing created by legitimate means, so one cannot call it "illegal" or a "terrorist organization". It's a recognized faction that holds extraterritoriality in most nations connected to it, and it is accepted as a legitimate institution.
Though the inner workings of the place aren't exactly common knowledge, its ultimate objective is the destruction of [Madness] and [The Sway of Magic], but they constantly try to expand their influence and power.
It is separated into multiple divisions, the most public of which are the Einherjar, Valkyries, and Seior. The first are composed almost entirely of humans with very strong souls; the second those with Grigori Souls, tasked for retrieving those with irregular souls, and the third the Witch corps.
02 The Power of Legacy
The true ability of Omi's family. By turning the memories of each head witch into transmutable data, the abilities of past generations can be passed down seamlessly, only adding on to the new generation. By transferring the memories, and thus the "collective knowledge", a distorted form of immortality is attained. Though one may die, their children will take up the sword and move forward into the future, holding the previous generations fruits.
03 The Sway of Magic
Something that is extremely relevant but is not directly touched upon by Omi. The Sway of Magic and Madness are two related concepts, but in the end they're two different things. While both can be controlled and manipulated, in the end they always end in great destruction and hardship for humanity.
While it may not seem it, The Sway of Magic also dictates and controls the existence of witches by nudging them into destructive results and steady sanity loss. If one cannot honestly dictate their own actions, then they have no choice; and if they have no ability to make their own choices themselves, they're closer to beasts than people. Destruction is self destructive, thus the Sway of Magic will only end horribly for the Witch under its influence and the people around them.
In that way, Omi despises Madness and the Sway of Magic, and considers the Sway of Magic a poison killing the race of witches.
04 Earths No1 Saving System
Secret coalition Yggdrasil is a part of. There are 6 member organizations, one for each area of the world. Omi's is Europe, while the others are located in other areas.
Yggdrasil is the defacto leader, but it really is a loose coalition. They do not keep in regular contact with each other, and the philosophies and morality of the member organizations and their leaders vary greatly. It was created in response to the creation of not only Asura, but also the Great Old Ones as well. It is an anti Madness group in every sense of the word.
Ironically, some of the members and organizations were corrupted or influenced by madness in the past, leading to civil war between members of the coalition.
It is said that among the leaders of the 6, Omi is the strongest. Each leader is a distortion that can't even be called human anymore, and each has a form of Immortality.
Omi's is the immortality of Legacy, and is not conventional immortality.
Numerical Phantasm
Transmigration of numbers. To put it simply, Witches have the capability of shape shifting. That is why their souls are the main ingredient to produce weapons with souls, as their souls allow things to transform. The basis of all magic used by witches can be traced back to this root of "shapeshifting" or "taking materials to make something different". In the case of Omi, she is capable of shape shifting numbers.
To put most of the uses of the ability into simpler terms, the basic idea revolves around percentages, and always making sure the dice is favorable result when it hits the ground. An example would be a bag full of marbles; half of the marbles are white, and the other black. Her ability would be always selecting the black marble if she wanted it.
While it seems like a lackluster ability, in reality is very versatile and useful. However its greatest limitation is that it's unable to make a 1 out of a 0.
Math
An intellectual ability that has nothing to do with magic directly. Her ability to use such a mundane skill is extreme high, and she is capable of creating mathematical equations trivially. Spells or abilities that would normally require Arithmetic magic or something similiar are completely unneeded as she can make the calculations herself.
It really is a wonderfully useful ability that goes with her particular magic style. Very useful for things like spatial and temporal magic.
Soul Envelop
A new revolutionary way of outsmarting the normal and advanced methods of soul detection. Rather than make a barrier, which cuts off the Witches magic and is not foolproof, this ability envelops a soul within a soul.
The basic idea is that instead of using a cardboard cut out of a normal person(barrier) and try to hide behind that, you put a legitimately real person in front of you and hide behind that. As it's a real and legitimate soul, even advanced sensory will be unable to tell that the person under Soul Envelop is a Witch.
Furthermore, as there's no barrier containing or constricting the soul, the Witch is still capable of using magic. It operates on the basis of turning a normal persons soul into data, then unpacking that data outside of the witches soul. The normal person must be willing for this process to work.
It is a revolutionary new step in the warfare between Witches and Meisters, however since Omi is not directly aligned with Witches, they do not have access to this ability.
Prima Materia
A specialized material that is like a black box. It has no special ability or effect on its own, and it is worthless to Witches, but is actually useful as a building block to sorcerers. Currently, Omi is the only one remaining with the proper knowledge to produce it.
As it has no ability of its own other than being a building block for greater things, nothing much can be said about it. However even if it has no special ability it's amazing as a building block and changes for the needs of what it's building seamlessly. Not common knowledge.
Huginn and Muninn
Her wizard robe and hat.
Sentient ravens who assist her by gather information, helping her during combat, and even enhancing her mathematical abilities. Familiars made out of Prima Materia, they are capable of talking but rarely do. They are capable of shifting between the shape of her clothes and that of ravens.
Nameless Spear
Not nameless at all, as Omi calls it Gungnir. It is a spear that is good at being a spear. It has no special effect or ability of its own, but is made out of prima materia.
The one carried on her person is a physical prototype of the real Gungnir that is to be produced. Since it has no special ability other than being troublesome to destroy, it could be said that she has no point in carrying it around.
However, Omi, being her usual vain self, said "I wonder if Gungnir will have use in combat" even if would never actually be used as a weapon in the first place.
The real Gungnir that does not exist yet is capable of "completing" her abilities. If this happens, production of true Aqua Vitae can happen.
Aqua Vitae
The most important thing that Gungnir is a key to unlocking. In alchemy Aqua Vitae is the water of life produced by the philosophers stone. It is said to heal any injury, cure any sickness, and clear the mind of all ailments. Does not exist in this world nor has it existed in this world before.
The best that has been made is a prototype that eases the mind from the Sway of Magic and makes one highly resistant to madness. Omi carries this on her person, but it is not the real thing. Not common knowledge. Its basis is Prima Materia.
