[hider=Pre-Sanctuary] [b]Beatrice "B" Magin[/b] Beatrice stepped to the side and began stretching the moment she left the aircraft. Though not eligible until age 16, at age 14 the Arcanian gymnastic team had invited her to train with them before the annual nationals was held in Sovereign. The team would have paid for a shuttle, but for this opportunity her parents didn't mind splurging to cut the travel time. B was used to traveling throughout Arcurus for gymnastic competitions, but she never got used to being confined for so long. B observed the other passengers exiting the aircraft. Most were dressed in business attire. She noticed a girl, slightly older than her, wearing an Arcanian gymnastic team shirt. They had talked briefly before boarding the aircraft. The girl didn't notice B, and she continued towards the aircraft terminal without stretching. [i]She has zero chance of placing[/i]. This girl, who should have been peaking in her training for nationals, hadn't so much as stretched once in the last 9 hours. Sizing up the girl, B was familiar with the type. This girl had been enrolled in gymnastics from an extremely early age. She was talented and comfortable with the sport, but lacked the drive to train, the drive to dedicate every fiber of her being to be the best. [i]No wonder the Arcanian team always finishes last[/i]. Beatrice looked to change that.

She is 5'1" and 110lbs. Her hair is light brown, and currently about 2" in length. Her eyes are blue. She has a few scars, the most notable one starts above her right eyebrow and goes across her forehead into her hairline at her left temple. [/hider] [hider=Beatrice Magin] [b]Name[/b]: Beatrice "B" Magin [b]Age[/b]: 15 (14 at time of void gate incident) [b]Gender[/b]: female [b]Birthplace[/b]: small town outside of Argos [b]Current home[/b]: Same small town. Visited Sovereign for training at time of void gate opening. [b]Personality[/b]: Competitive, driven, hardworking. On track to be on national gymnastic team. Can be very judgmental. Survivalist, Avoids conflict. [b]Bio[/b]: (tl;dr: She's a competitive gymnast with a cushy past. She develops as a character throughout her survival.) Her mother from Valira and her father from Arcurus, they joked that Beatrice's competitive nature meant she had been switched at birth with a Warshiran. They raised their child outside of the city of Argos. Her father, Charlie, taught at the engineering branch of the College of Argos, where he did biomedical research involving prosthetic limbs and organs. He worked closely with core researchers. During the semester, he spent much of his time at a small apartment rather than commuting. While at home, Charlie pushed his daughter to succeed academically. Her mother, Lauren, was previously a miner. After she found out she understood cores better than her boss, Lauren switched careers, and went back to school for core research. There she met Charlie while he was studying abroad. She taught intro to core theory at the local high school, planning to continue her research once B graduated. While a stickler for Beatrice getting her school work done, Lauren pushed Beatrice to find what she enjoyed, and B discovered her love for competitive sports. At age 9, Beatrice was set on dancing for a living. She planned on attending a renowned high school for dancing in the city of Argos. Classical dancing, which almost all dancing competitions in Arcurus were, turned out to be too rigid and not challenging enough. She turned to gymnastics at age 11, Where she quickly caught up to - and due to hard work, surpassed - those who had trained from younger ages. Her quick advancement led to some animosity from the other child athletes, and she spent too much time training to spend much time out of school with her classmates. Her closest friend was her coach, Rachel. At age 13 she was noticed by the provincial coach for Arcurus. At age 14 she was sent to train with the provincial team, training in Sovereign a few weeks before Nationals was held there. [b]Special attributes/gear[/b]: Extremely athletic. No notable gear. --- [b]Kage Type[/b]: Kamikage [b]Kage Name[/b]: Ballizein [b]Kage Personality[/b]: Ballizein, nicknamed "Z" by Beatrice, serves as B's conscious, coach, and friend. When choosing hosts, Z was looking for the strongest, but B's determination won him over. Z appears to Beatrice most of the time as a massive tigress with orange eyes and a soothing, deep, and powerful feminine voice. [b]Kage Primary Power[/b]: Manipulation of kinetic energy in a short range (5 feet) around her. This manifests itself in a slight telekinesis, but more-so ballistics. She cannot create kinetic energy, but can transfer it from multiple objects - including herself - into a single object to send it flying. [b]Kage secondary power[/b]: Rooting. Range: contact. She can "root" an object (or portion of an object) in another dimension. This causes the object to maintain its momentum. The spirit cost of this is directly proportional to the energy change that would have occurred to the object. It can turn an object into a shield at the cost of constantly draining spirit with every hit, but every hit and push threatens to "unroot" the object. Note: Not even she can manipulate the kinetic energy of a "rooted" object. [b]Beatrice primary power[/b]: Kinetic energy manipulation (range: self). This manifests in B to make her a speedster. She can change the direction of her own momentum 180° in the blink of an eye, as long as she is in contact with something. She can twist like a cat in the air, but cannot change her trajectory. Can also be used to increase the efficiency of her movements. [b]Beatrice secondary power[/b]: Momentary rooting. Whenever B changes directions quickly, she can root both a small portion of whatever body part is in contact with the ground and the ground itself. This stops self-harm when changing direction rapidly, maintains traction, and allows her to move on some fragile surfaces without breaking them.[/hider]
