[b]Name:[/b] Alyssa Bryant [b]Callsign:[/b] Will-O-Wisp [b]Age:[/b] 24 [b]Gender:[/b] Female [b]Appearance:[/b] Alyssa is a relatively short woman and has remained somewhat childish in her appearance, even after becoming an adult. Her blonde hair only just reaches her shoulders, with the hair at the front seeming a little longer than the hair round back. It is commonly tied up into a shabby and unruly ponytail to stop it from getting into her face during fights. Her eyes are hazel in colour and appear very narrowed, locking her expression into a disdainful glare. Alyssa possesses two large burn scars, one that extends from neck to the very edge of her left cheek and one on her left arm, though she keeps the latter covered by wearing shirts with long sleeves. Speaking of clothes, Alyssa sticks to the simple things. In her free time, she puts next to no effort in her appearance, often wearing crumpled and not entirely clean hoodies, T-shirts and jeans. During battle, she wear clothes that will keep her body covered for protection but will not restrict her movements need she resort to physical attacking or have to run away. She always wears boots. (Picture may be drawn and added at some point) [b]Personality:[/b] Cold, calculating and aloof, Alyssa’s powers may be fire-based but her personality lacks the passion of her fiery attacks. Simply, she is an ice queen who keeps her distance from others and prefers to spend her free time training herself and her powers for battle instead of socializing. She dedicates herself entirely to the cause of fighting the Infinite, believing her life to have no other purpose and, at time, even seeming extremely depressed due to the knowledge that any day now, she may die. When she does talk with others, a rare occurrence, she is either distant, never making eye contact with others and preferring to use as little words as possible in her speech, or she is full-on hostile, criticizing the other party for the smallest things as if she can only see their flaws and not their virtues. Her emotions seem to be completely out of her own control with her either having to keep them entirely suppressed or letting them out in one blast which, due to the nature of her powers, can be particularly dangerous. However, where she fails socially, she makes up for with complete focus on the battle field, putting as much effort as possible into destroying all enemies in sight. She does unfortunately have a tendency to take risks when fighting and may throw herself and others into danger if it means she gets the job done. She seems completely dedicated to defeating as many Infinites as possible, and with the AWF encouraging magical girls to use as much force as possible, there is nothing to stop her from completely going wild and, frequently, she does. Since she feels the need to suppress her emotions in order to stop herself from losing control of her powers, battles are the only real outlet she has for pent-up rage. While she tries to be at least somewhat strategic and calm during the beginning of fight, she almost always will have gone into a berserker-like rage by the end. [b]Short Biography:[/b] During her upbringing, Alyssa was raised to believe that one should completely dedicate themselves to “doing the right thing”. Her father, Joe Bryant, is police officer who, despite the AWF breathing down their necks, is determined to the point of aggression in his actions to bring down the criminals that plague the city, and lectured both his daughters in the importance of doing all they can to keep as many lives as safe as possible. Alyssa’s old sister, Celia Bryant, also known as Silver Shield, was actually a magical girl herself, who discovered her abilities to create force fields at a relatively early age and, with great encouragement from their father, joined the AWF to help fight the Infinites. Alyssa herself exhibited no unusual abilities at that point, but desired to follow her father’s example and desired to become a police officer herself when she was old. However, things took a turn for a worse. When Alyssa was 19, out of school and beginning to work towards her desired career, her dream had to take back seat for a while when her sister Celia was killed in action, leaving her and the rest of her family completely distraught. Things began to fall apart after that, with her father spending less and less time at home in favour of continuing to chase down criminals or drinking himself to the point of unconsciousness in local bars, and her mother becoming distant and often neglecting her daughter. With no one to talk to and feeling completely alone, Alyssa became severely depressed, and her parents’ attitudes were not helping. Her father started picking on her for not continuing on with working towards her goals and how she would never live up to her sister’s greatness. During one particular argument, Alyssa eventually lost it and the emotional distress caused the first manifestations of her magical girl power, in which she unleashed a fiery blast that ending up burning down their house. While none of her family were severely injured, Alyssa was horribly distraught by her outburst and considered turning herself into the police, convinced that she was a terrible person. However, on her way to the station, she was approached by a member of the AWF, who instead suggested she joined them instead, adding as an aside that it was “what her sister would want”. While initially hesitant, Alyssa convinced herself that it would be the best thing for her and joined the AWF in hopes of somehow ‘avenging’ her sister’s death. Now 24 years of age, she is living on her own in an apartment near the edges of The City, has had very little contact with her family since the incident and completely dedicated to fighting Infinites for the rest of her life, believing this to the only purpose for her existence. Of recently, she has been growing more and more agitated as she is slowly beginning to forget what her sister looks like. [b]Powers:[/b] Alyssa’s powers are fire-based. She can create a multitude of small fireballs at once to use as quick and easy projectiles, but can also make larger and strong flames in lower quantity, which, while far more effective and likely to cause greater damage, take longer to form and charge up. Of recent, Alyssa has been working on a new attack which involves combining many small fireballs into a single fiery blast. However, this latter ability not only takes a lot of time to charge but uses up practically all of Alyssa’s energy, leaving her unable to fight and completely defenseless for a long period of time, as such Alyssa is only likely to use it as a last resort in a long and already tiring battle. Alyssa’s powers also seem to react in accordance with her emotions, becoming more powerful yet less easy to control the more upset she is. [b]Equipment:[/b] The one time her father visited her after she joined the AWF, Alyssa’s father gave her a small gun, a large box of ammo for said gun and a bullet proof vest. Despite the fact these items are probably useless against the Infinites and rogue magical girls, Alyssa keeps them with her at all times, probably more as good luck charms rather than as usable equipment. She has, as of yet, not used the gun, planning on saving the ammo for a situation where it may actually be useful.
