[hider=Major Carol-Ann Keifers][b]Name[/b]: Carol-Ann Keifers [b]Alias[/b]: Maj. Keifers, The Red Angel [b]Age[/b]: 22 years old [b]Gender[/b]: Female [b]Birthplace[/b]: Magmel, Arcarus [b]Current Home[/b]: Sovereign's military HQ [b]Personality:[/b] Carol-Ann's mind has always had trouble relating to others when it came to anything that stood in the grounds of emotions or even personal needs and/or desires. Actually, she never really had the ability to empathize with others unless philosophy or general culture were the topics of discussion, as her life in the Province of Arcarus initiated her mind into the world of doubt and constant questioning. Her philosophy rests on the acceptance of one's being and holding dearly to their values and convictions. Through this mindset, she is capable of respecting those who follow that same path. She is undoubtedly a psychopath, being unable to feel remorse or control her actions, and she's come to terms with that fact about her. She fully accepts and lives as if she has absolutely no control over her pathology, despite the fact that she isn't an exception to the control freak trait many sociopaths inherit. She's quick to throw an extremely violent fit of rage if anything dissatisfies her in a what she would see as a bitter defeat. She isn't above murdering just about anyone during temper tantrums, and that doesn't exclude her ability to freely execute someone even when in a calm state. Indeed, she's completely capable of adapting to her social environment, passing off as invisible to most people as she was obligated to do during her teens. The biggest problem she has with interacting, however, is the idea that she has to recognize everyone's freedom. She loathes the concept of individual freedom, the concept that any nobody could have just as much of a say as her, she can't stand it. She dreams of a world where everyone is forced to recognize she is right, where nothing can be said about "opinions" and "individual value". The acquiring of her newly gained powers have only stimulated the God complex inside of her. She's calculating, and thorough in her thought process. She often failed in many classes of prestigious schools she attended to, but this was because of her inability to grasp theoretical classes and abstract representations of ideas such as economical theories or equations. She's more into concrete reasoning, she needs to be able to visualize the physical nature of the idea she analyzing, making her a formidable tactician when it comes to real fighting. The sole exception to this is philosophy, the science of knowledge, as she has a full understanding of the human mind and often uses that to her advantage to get what she wants. It is also the reason as to why she was never retired immediately from the army. [b]Bio:[/b] Born in the small town of Magmel, not too far from Arcarus' capital, Argos. She hated that town, every child she ever ended up playing with was either a worthless crybaby who couldn't handle the rules of the game or they were too stupid to grasp how much better she was in whatever she played. She was indeed quite competitive and still hates losing to this day, which made her quite the challenge in any given sport. However this also made her incompetent in collective activities in which cooperation was a must in order to achieve victory. Nothing went like she wanted it to, there was always some adult who intervened when she got her game up or the others would simply do their best to gang up on her so she would simply go away. She hated it. Her parents had already conceived a first child ten years before her birth, and with such a large gap of age there weren't many things the two girls could do together because of the difference of maturity. Carol-Ann's sister, Murielle, had a very small role in her life, unlike the parents who stemmed the accumulated rage in the young girl. Oddly enough, they were nothing more than ordinary folks who ran simple lives and only a divorce a few years after C-A's birth spiced things up a bit. Her father was a Colonel in the army back then, when the army barely had any importance at all, while her mother was a housewife and never had a job. Carol-Ann despised them for this, for being normal, for being nothing special unlike the many high class children she had the chance to frequently be acquainted to during her school years. Her dad brought just enough money for food and the typical birthday gifts. She loathed the poor, they were disgusting, they had nothing, and her family was simply dragging her down in the common hole, a place where a fine person such as herself didn't belong. She was convinced that he destiny was away from these "creatures", that she needed power, fortune, fame so she could finally be recognized as the immensely grand individual she is. Unfortunately, she realized the hard way that rage and frustration as well as malefic intentions brought her nowhere. At school she was often hated by others because of her temper and her desire to manipulate others into doing things she found funny, but others simply found out of place. Eventually she adapted to this repulsive world that had sunken to the point of being unable to cope with her "superior" goals, but she was convinced this would only be temporary, until the day she'd finally have the correct parameters to finally achieve her dream. After finishing her basic education, she was recruited to the army thanks to her determination, physical capabilities and most of all the connections of her father in the system. At that point, she knew that demanding the big cheese right away wasn't the way to go, she'd have to earn her place, as much as it irritated her. The army trained her in multiple arts until she specialized in knives in tandem with military pistol usage. She was eventually sent as a working officer and peace keeper in Argos, aged 19. Her co-workers were lower lifeforms to her, none of them had any form of higher education or specific prestige, nothing at all. She was still following political studies in parallel with her military formation so she could earn money and special privileges given to public servants. Struggling with the ambiguous subjects she had to take to succeed in the Political sciences, she had strongly reduced military service so she could achieve her goal for power. It appeared odd to her superiors as she wasn't too far from a genius in the domain, having impressive skills in learning fighting techniques and being able to find concrete solutions to many dilemmas in short periods of time. But it made all too much sense to her, she wouldn't reach what she wants fast enough with such a lousy position, she needed the knowledge, the diplomas, the connections, the perfect identity. It eventually came to her moving away from Arcarus altogether, leaving her whole family behind, never to even call them once after her last goodbye. She went to Sovereign where she'd attend Sovereign's Administration and Law School. The school was expensive, hence her continued activity in the military so she could perceive a regular salary and pay off scholarship. Then, it came. The Void unleashed itself on Sovereign. Carol-Ann, only 21 and somewhat experienced face head-on the chaos released in the world. It was sporadic, bloody, mortifying. She loved it, there wasn't anything above her in this kind of world, she could easily kill her superior and have no direct consequences, after all she could just blame it on some psycho, no one would care more than that. Nonetheless, she still had things to do in this city and screwing around for the fun wasn't going to solve anything. Using her knives and duty pistol, she was obliged to murder multiple suspects who appeared to be causing havoc, more or less. She shot them, stabbed them, sliced them, and she didn't feel bad about nor ever asked herself the question "Would I like to be treated that way?". No, this was obviously amusing. It was especially amusing when one seriously posed a threat to her, one of those people who were affected by these magical creature-things. He wanted to kill her, probably because he saw she was of law enforcement, but she was too pleased to give him that opportunity. Three small blades hurled at the man, three of them pierced his rib cage. One was lodged in his right lung, on in the upper side of the liver and the final one at the heart. Just as she wanted it to be. It was a clean kill, and the simple fact of realizing she had taken about 35 years of memories, of life, of joy, of importance to others away from the individual because she simply could, made her as the most vulgar would say: "Moist". Visually amused by the death she had brought, she skipped to the body to pick up the bloody blades she had thrown, only to be assaulted by a blue light released from the man's dead corpse. It was too fast, and she couldn't react to it on time. The Kamikage, Morel, had bound himself to her out of despair. At first she thought she was just tripping, but eventually she realized she had a blathering blue bird of the male gender talking to her out of nowhere. Though their exchanges were short, she could only belittle the creature while it quickly became infatuated by her for reasons no one seem to understand. In the end, the bird wasn't a big deal, as she had gained the kind of power she sought to gain, though this was way more literal than what she initially planned. As a test for her newly acquired abilities, she caused the explosion of the School she studied in, killing not only the many students and civilians hiding in there but also killing off her colleagues who were unlucky enough to witness the act. She was drunken with power, her abilities to literally make anything explode were magnificent. They were simply a dream come true. However, soon after the calming of the incident, she was captured during one of her early rampages by hunters. Her recklessness made her pay the price. For about a month, she was tortured with never ending experiments until she managed to rub an ounce of her spirit on the coat of a researcher, causing the man to explode on the spot and giving her an escape. Because she had planned it for a while, the execution was precise, though sloppy. Nonetheless, all the soldiers and researchers were quickly murdered, allowing her an quick escape. Walls were pointless and never kept her pinned, as such gaining access to the higher ups wasn't an problem when every obstacle met could be simply turned into a bomb. As she met with her old employers, she had the choice to kill them out of vengeance, or compromise. Either strip herself of any form of freedom and run out like a hunted down rabbit. Or, work for them, get all the privileges she could want while hunting down all the problems the military would be faced with. They would not only have a Guardian as an asset but also a worthy test subject when it came to field testing. As of now, she holds the position of Major and is going to b assigned as the first commander of a new Hunter squad with ambiguous goals as of now. One must only know that hunters are just as much predators to any form of Kage than the Onikage are to the Kamikage. [b]Appearance[/b]:[img=http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2014/070/6/a/bambietta_basterbine_by_therealkyuubi16-d79t62m.jpg] [b]Special Traits/Weapons[/b]: Expert skills in knife fighting Highly potent field tactician Terrifying presence, she can easily intimidate people with words, a stare and would sometimes refer to their weak spots Her marksman skills have been honed for multiple years [b]Military handgun:[/b] The typical handgun used by military officials, and usually trusted to higher ups due to the potential it wields. It holds two extra slots for cores, and this particular one is dedicated to the Land and Lightning cores. They can be used simultaneously to create specific shots, notably explosive rounds of the normal and bullets combined with stronger flashes of light emitting for the barrel when shots are being fired. Each individual core can produce up to 150 shots. [b]Combat knives:[/b] She holds a total of five [url=http://www.punisherknife.com/history_files/HistoryL10.jpg]military knives[/url] hidden in different places in her attire. Each of them have an isolating hilt, preventing electricity from flowing down to the user's hands. -The first one is the most exposed as it it stored on Keifers' belt. It holds the Kinetic core within the hilt and it grants the user the defensive abilities of a Kinectic core applied on the weapon, thus allowing easy deflection of opposing attacks and easier openings. -The second one is attached on he right thigh and hidden under her skirt. It holds the water core, allowing it to release streams if water out of the tip of the blade. The abundance of the water can be quite severe, making it possible to flood a small, boxed area by stabbing the knife on the ground. It is mostly used in tandem with the lightning core. -The third one is on the opposing thigh of the water knife. It holds the lightning core, and of course, the blade is electric. The intensity of the electricity can be enough to paralyze a rather strong individual and kill weaker ones. -The fourth one is hidden under her right sleeve and easily slides down by command. The fire core is attached to it, which requires a much more resilient metal to harness its power. The blade heats itself intensely to the point of being able to cut off metals such as steel and iron with relative ease. -The final blade is on Keifers' back, just under her neck and hidden behind her clothes. It holds the wind core and simply allows it to release long rang air slashes the size of the knife strike. It can only form wind slashes and not pinpoint stabs with the current technology. [b]Throwing knives:[/b] [url=http://www.weapons-universe.com/throwing-knives/3-piece-throwing-knife-set-w-round-blades-black.jpg]Knives[/url] small enough to be hidden in the dozens within clothes and small pouch compartments. They are small enough to be unnoticeable when hidden on Keifers' being, and they are quite effective when thrown in groups. [b]Kinetic Shield:[/b] Like many members of the military, Keifers wields a bullet-proof vest with the kinetic core implanted, allowing an extra layer of defenses covering all of her body and back leaving the limbs and head exposed. [b]Holopad[/b] It is a wrist watch used to create holograms in order to see whoever she's communicating with. It is supposed to be the best quality the government can offer. Its color is blue. [b]Theme Song[/b]: [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-PA9HmD42DE]Red Sun[/url] ----------------------- [b]Kage Type[/b]: Kamikage [b]Kage Name[/b]: Morel [b]Kage Primary Power[/b]: "Bomb Creation" This power manifests itself in a way that it combines itself with pretty much anything tangible. Keifers exerts her power by forming blue orbs on her hand and hurling them in a linear fashion toward a target. The speed of such a projectile isn't as great as a bullet's, but it can easily surpass the speed of a fastball in baseball. Once the power fuses with whatever it comes into contact with, the affected element gains a new "feature", it becomes a bomb. It can explode immediately or in a predetermined time, usually decided by the user. The range of this power isn't too big, for instant if it were to hit one's abdomen, there would only be a large hole in there instead of the whole body exploding. The same for a member, only the member would explode (should level would be lethal however). This also can be combined with movement but in a much less lethal degree. For instance, Keifers is capable of turning the particles in the air she's touching directly, only when it's followed by a strong enough movement like a punch. The direction of the explosion will be dictated by the direction of the movement, thus the pressure released by the explosion will only go in one direction (huehue). This isn't lethal, and will in the worst break a weak bone or two because the particles in the air are simply too small to create an adequate force to actually damage properly. Nonetheless it pushes stuff away very effectively. [b]Kage Secondary Power[/b]: Although developing this was difficult, Morel's love and empathy for Carol-Ann allows him to offer her a feature of his being. As blue [url=http://th00.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/i/2013/314/5/4/the_explode_by_arendas-d6tqhkn.jpg]wings[/url] made of pure energy are formed on her back. They essentially allow her to fly and channel a larger amount of explosive projectiles simultaneously. [b]Kage Personality/Description:[/b] Morel is a generous and rather easily submitted Kage. He deeply cares for his host to the point of actually falling in love with Keifers despite the monstrosity she is. It is safe to assume he is a naive young man as he tries to explain his feelings for her just as effectively as one would try to teach colors to a blond person. He takes the form of a small Blue Jay.[/hider]
