[b]Name[/b]: Christina Montgomery [b]Age[/b]: 25 [b]Gender[/b]: Female [hider=Appearance][img]http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20101121203616/blazblue/pl/images/thumb/7/7a/Litchi_Faye-Ling.png/500px-Litchi_Faye-Ling.png[/img][/hider] [b]Personality[/b]: Christina is somewhat of a mystery to most people. At first she can come off as quite pleasant and calm; someone who you’d expect to be a rather talented mediator between a group of friends. Despite her warm and welcoming exterior, there is a much more fierce spirit dwelling inside of her. When slightly irritated or frustrated she reveals a much more intimidating side of herself where she won’t hesitate to knock her comrades back into line. This attitude remains true to her Celestial Spirits. She cares for her spirits greatly and treats them as if they were part of her own guild; and as such she expects them to uphold her standards in order to give Fairy Tail a good name. She’s quite a humble person, believing that her strength comes from the love she shares with her Spirits. Yet despite all this, there’s always an aura of intrigue lingering around her that comes with her reluctance to tell anyone of her past before Fairy Tail. The only ones who know of the darkness she harbours inside her are her closest friends; her spirits. [b]History[/b]: Growing up in an orphanage was never easy on Christina. She was too young to be left alone and longed for the day when someone would hold her in her arms and call her their beautiful child. Unfortunately, it became obvious after many years that that day would never come. With each passing year the haunting realisation that nobody wanted to adopt her became more and more evident. She gave up hope entirely. Another child had been in a similar situation to her. His name was Luca and he was only a few years older than she was. They’d been friends for a long time at the orphanage, but only when Christina was 13 did he reveal one of his greatest secrets to her; that he had been practicing magic in secret. The nuns that looked after them wouldn’t allow them to practice magic, so she was intrigued as to how he managed to train under their noses. She promised she wouldn’t tell the nuns his secret, but asked that in return he tried to teach her magic as well. The two would sneak out at midnight every night and train in a local farmers fields in secret. Luca was a Celestial Mage and his parents had left him with 1 Golden Key and 2 Silver Keys when they abandoned him. All the keys had been confiscated from him, but he’d managed to get back his Silver Keys. He assumed that the nuns kept the Golden Key hidden very well. Luca gave Christina the Silver Key of Ursa Minor and taught her how to make a Celestial Contract with the spirits. While Ursa Minor wasn’t a spirit of great power, he was a great companion to have around. She spent a lot of time playing with Luca and his Spirit; Vulpecula. It was all fun and games, until Luca came up with an idea to bust them out. Using Vulpecula’s talents, he had broken into the nuns offices and searched for his Golden Key. When he was successful, he came for Christina and the two of them fled the orphanage. They were going to join a guild and become strong wizards, but first they would need more keys. Luca had heard of an elderly man living nearby who was supposedly a Celestial Wizard with a couple Golden Keys. Using his Zodiac Spirit; Taurus, the pair broke into the lonely mans house and stole his keys. Luca wasn’t satisfied with that. He knew just stealing the keys wouldn’t be enough; so he had Taurus strangle the man to death. Christina was shocked at what he had done, but didn’t have the courage to speak up. He gave her one of the Golden Keys he had stolen; the key for Virgo. She was happy to have another Spirit to become friends with, but her fear of Luca started to grow from that day forward. Would he ever hurt her like that? She couldn’t imagine him wanting to hurt her. Luca told her that they’d be turned down by all the official guilds, so if they wanted to grow stronger they’d need to join a Dark Guild. In took them a few weeks to travel across towns, but they eventually made it to the Black Knight Guild. While they didn’t look like much, Luca’s synergy with his Celestial Spirits was enough to impress the Guild master and allow them to join. Many years were spent in that Guild, and eventually Christina’s mentality shifted towards a darker state. Through various jobs she was able to acquire more Gate Keys, and even despite her newfound cruelty as a Dark Wizard she was still determined to treat her Spirits like family. One day, Luca came up to her and asked her to take an assassination request with him. The zealous look in his eye transformed Christina back into that little girl who had just watched her best friend take another persons life. Right from that moment a darkness had consumed Luca’s heart and no matter what Christina did she couldn’t turn him back into the sweet little boy who loved his Spirits as much as she did. She refused to go with him on the mission and said that when he got back she was leaving Black Knight for good. In a rage, Luca struck her across the face and stormed off on the mission. He called her weak and pathetic, saying that she’d never grow stronger with her morals holding her back. Those were his last words to her. The only thing that returned a week later to the Guild was Vulpecula. He failed his mission and was killed by his targets guards. Before taking the mission he had released Vulpecula from her contract and told her to go and find Christina and form a contract with her. Christina wondered where the rest of his keys went, but he just assumed the wizards who killed Luca would have sold them. After forming a new contract, Christina set off from Black Knight with the guilt of Luca’s death looming over her. If she had gone with him they could have fought together. They were unstoppable together. She blamed herself for letting the darkness inside of him grow so much. She blamed herself for not making a stand all those years ago. It was too late now. With her past behind her, she set off for an official guild where she would try and make amends for her crimes. Her travels led her to Magnolia, where the Fairy Tail guild resided. She was uneasy at first, joining such a Guild. However her spirits had told her that this was a place where they would accept her for who she was and treat her like family. Many years had passed and the secrets of her past are still unknown to her Fairy Tail comrades. All she had ever wanted was a family that loved her, and she’d found it in her Spirits and in all the Wizards at Fairy Tail. [b]Weapons[/b] : Christina carries around a large Bo Staff which she was given by Virgo.

[b]Magic Type[/b]: Holder Magic. [b]Magic[/b]: Christina is a Celestial Wizard, able to summon forth Spirits using Gate Keys.

[b]Relationship Status[/b] : Scutum is illiterate, only speaking in a series of grunts and growls. However his desire to protect Christina makes him a faithful spirit to have on her side.

It can withstand magical attacks and will slowly repair itself after it has taken a heavy hit. [u]Armor Form[/u] : Transforms into a suit of armour which wraps itself around Christina or one of her spirits. Increases the targets defence dramatically and is said to be very light despite its sturdiness.

Virgo and her Wizard release three waves of tremors that fan out around them. Each wave is stronger than the last, the last wave crashing the earth around them into a series of deadly rock shards. Anyone caught in the radius of the first wave will feel the earth shift beneath their feet, throwing them off balance if they aren't prepared enough. [b]Gemini and Christina Unison Raid: Morning Star[/b] - Using Gemini to create a clone of herself, doubling her magic power, Christina brings forth the might of the celestial world with a blinding pillar of light crashing down from the sky to strike her enemies. The spell requires a lot of magic power to cast, draining both Christina and Gemini just to pull it off, but if it makes contact with her target then the results are devastating. [b]Scutum and Christina Unison Raid: Shield of Sobieski[/b] - Scutum and Christina combine their magic power, collectively transforming Scutum into his 3rd form: The Mask. This small, wooden mask radiates with magic power and can levitate off the ground. Upon Christina's command, the mask will circle around her and her allies, spreading its magic power over them in the form of an invisible barrier. This barrier will sustain one hit from any attack, even if it is an incredibly powerful spell. The way it does this is by converting the actual damage the person would take from the spell, and inflict it upon their Magic Power instead. So rather than taking a direct hit from a powerful spell, the person affected will simply lose magic power equal to the magic power used in the spell that attacked them.[/hider]
