Use me as you wish, I am disposable.”[/color] [/center] [b]Name:[/b] Auriola (Designation Prototype Gear Golem CDPU-000) [b]Age:[/b] ??? [b]Gender:[/b] Female [b]Race:[/b] Sacred Gear Humanoid [b]Ranking:[/b] Knight [b]Appearance:[/b] Weighing in at 634 pounds, and at 5'10", its a wonder that she doesn't break desks with her high weight for her small frame. Her skin, while almost as white as porcelain, is a synthetic textile meant to replicate the look, feeling, and warmth of flesh, and as such from a pure visual perspective she appears utterly human. However, her arms are capable of detaching at the elbows and shoulders, her wrists can spin 360 degrees, and overall she is very UN-human when in combat mode. Oddly enough, her hair is entirely natural, and grows out of her scalp like a normal human's...probably the oddest thing about her. However, each of her different Virtue Drivers slightly alter her hair style in various ways. In Zero Driver Form, her hair is simply kept straight, with nothing special about it. [list][*]Zero: Her hair is worn straight down, with no discernible style to it, aside from being kept relatively neat. [*]Kindness: Her hair gets put up into a high ponytail, and her bangs get tucked behind her ears. [*]Chastity: Her hair gets pulled into two long twin tails that go to about her mid-back. [*]Humility: Her hair oddly regresses to being very short, giving her a pixie bob cut [*]Abstinence: A single large braided tail that reaches her waist. [*]Patience: Her bangs lengthen to cover her eyes somewhat, the back shortening to around neck-length. [*]Generosity: Her hair is woven into a tied back double braid [*]Diligence: Her hair gets pulled back into a neat bun at the back, leaving only her bangs at the sides of her head. [/list] [b]Skills:[/b] Extremely adept at mechanical repair, as well as various other skills that vary in competency based on what Virtue Driver is enabled at the moment. [list][*]Zero: Cleaning, Cooking, Stalking. [*]Kindness: Brain Surgeon level medical skills, nursing. [*]Chastity: Flower Arranging, as well as hair care. [*]Humility: Pet care. Psychology. [*]Abstinence: Meditation, sewing. [*]Patience: Stalking, Bird Watching. [*]Generosity: Extreeeeeemely relaxed. [*]Diligence: Sparring, and Physical Training [/list] [b]Sacred Gear:[/b] As she herself is a Sacred Gear, it could instead be said that every natural ability she possesses is stemming from her nature as an artificial protector of Humanity, one of the most glaring errors in the system created by God, by being a gear requiring no user whatsoever. Her sentience however seems to be where most of her power went in her creation, as on the most simple terms, Auriola's weapons all lack the true power an individual Sacred Gear of each type would possess. She cannot surpass a master of a Sword Based Sacred Gear, nor outdo something such as Twilight Healing using Kindness Virtue Driver. Her greatest strength comes in the form of versatility and speed, being capable of switching between her various Virtue Driver states at will. Originally a weapon designed to Protect Humans and Destroy Devils, her arsenal consists of various armaments and devices that either serve to protect humans, or to eliminate threats to them. Her Virtue Drivers can be switched between immediately, but they are limited in functions. Kindness cannot use Chastity's sword, nor can Patience wield Humility's drones. In addition to this, in order to alleviate worry in bystanders, she was designed to embody the seven virtues of humanity in the core Virtue Drivers she possesses, causing her personality to rapidly shift based on which is installed. This can easily be seen by the changes to her hair, and attitude to a situation once one becomes active. Her right arm, as well as her left in some cases, transform into her weapon of choice for her forms, though these are able to retract quickly into looking like a normal human arm once more, or just stopped from transforming into a weapon altogether. As stated before though, she cannot carry other Virtue Driver's weapons into other Driver's. In addition, she will automatically self repair after enough time passes in a battle upon receiving a wound, but this takes a huge toll on her energy if the repair is large. She can also strangely create entirely new limbs from energy that condense over time into identical copies of the real ones, but this is only if she's plugged into an outlet. [list] [*]Zero: Her fingers are able to open up and fire small, condensed bursts of energy. Weak, and lacking in range, but she also uses it to propel herself. The soles of her feet in all forms also possess this ability, and in this form she is capable of repairing herself using her own energy reserves. Requires that she at least have some charge left, which can be acquired by either having a member of the peerage give it to her, or if she were to plug herself into an electrical socket. The plug compatibility was installed by Ixveria after some...complications. Her default form, and the one she is most comfortable with. Due to reading about an android fighting for justice in some manga or another, her arms in this state can also detach at the elbow, letting her release a massive close range burst of energy from them, that she calls [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qem5axHhH_w]"Virtue's Flash."[/url] [*]Kindness: Magic Healing Apparatus in the form of a small orb of condensed magic that is pulled from her chest, near the reactor core, that must be consumed in order to take effect. Can also be used as a balm, and as such rubbing it on surface level wounds is enough to begin the healing process. While this is useful in a pinch, it heals by speeding up one's natural recovery processes, and as such can only heal someone from injuries that aren't immediately going to kill them. However, if say someone's lung was punctured, ingesting the ball would result in the hole being patched up neatly. Its applicable uses are huge, but it causes a tremendous toll on the one being healed, as it is speeding up their body's use of protein and energy to repair. [*]Chastity/Chaste Blade: A large sword that is almost larger than Auriola herself. This is by far the most simplistic of her weapons, as well as boasting the highest close range destructive power. There isn't much to say about this one, save for that Chastity is a bit slash happy with it. [*]Humility/Observers of Humility: Miniature drones are dispensed from salvos along Auriola's arms, resembling tiny puppet versions of her normal self. These can be used for reconnaissance, restraining individuals, or...for suicide bombings. Each drone roughly carries the strength of a grown adult human male, and also carry enough explosives inside of them to set off one hell of a body-mounted fireworks show. Each is also equipped with cameras in their eyes that link back to Auriola, and have a range of operation of about 20 kilometers around her. [*]Abstinence/Bulwark of Purity: Her right arm is transformed into a large tower shield, serving for pure defensive purposes in order to defend those she's fighting for/beside. This shield is incredibly hard to damage, but lacks almost any offensive capabilities save for ramming it into someone. [*]Patience/Reach of 1,000 Days Wait: Her right arm transforms into a long-barreled rifle like weapon that can hit a target accurately from hundreds of kilometers away. It fires beams of concentrated magic, supplied by her core, and is by far the strongest asset she has at range, limited only by the need to charge between shots, and the fact that bright pink laser beams kind of expose you while sniping. [*]Generosity/Spread of Peace: Her right arm turns into a massive machine gun, carrying somewhere over 1,000 rounds in a magazine formed of condensed magic that, while lacking anywhere near 1/100th the power of Patience's rifle, its made up for in the speed of its shots, as well as the massive spread, almost guaranteeing at least one shot to land. Sadly, very wasteful for energy consumption and is best used to deal with weak crowds, or intercept multiple projectiles. [*]Diligence/Tempered Hands: Both hands become massive plated gauntlets that hit with almost as much power as Chastity's Blade together. The hidden strength of this weapon comes in the form of them being detachable, and propelled by rockets after detaching from Auriola. These can travel for upwards of 20 Kilometers before running out of fuel. While powerful, these leave her incredibly open if she misses, as she has to physically retrieve at least one before changing form. While these are out, her raw physical strength is boosted, enabling her to lift much heavier objects. In the case of any of the above forms not having access to the right arm, the left arm is used instead. [/list] [b]Magic:[/b] None [b]Strengths:[/b] [list][*]EXTREMELY Versatile, able to switch between her 8 states almost instantly. [*]Can fly faster than most, due to both possessing jet thrusters in her feet, and being a Knight piece. [*]Is extremely durable as a machine, and has the knowledge to repair herself using her Evil piece and various metals. [*]Literally designed to kill Devils. [/list] [b]Weaknesses:[/b] [list][*]Completely unable to sense Senjutsu, or any form of Chakra as she herself has no aura as a "Being that Isn't Alive." While this could technically be a benefit, that she has no aura to read, it puts her in great danger when facing a Senjutsu user in one on one combat. [*]Sinks like a rock in water, and as such is unable to maneuver well underwater, or against water magic users. She can't drown, but she'd be unable to escape the bottom of a deep lake without walking to find a bank. [*]One-Track minded robot that will throw anything away to save human life, including her own body. Even if her opponent were a reincarnated devil that was once human, she would prevent their death at the cost of her own life. [*]Her core personality is disabled when a Virtue Driver takes over, and as such the impetuousness or hesitance of one could be considered as not being her own. For example: Chastity is stupid, and might charge into an obvious trap. Patience might fail to act quickly after disabling an opponent, etc, etc. [/list] [b]Personality:[/b] At her core, Auriola considers herself as being a simple autonomous drone, but she herself doesn't realize just how..."human" she is. While she isn't so great at expressing it without the use of her Virtue Drivers, she feels complex emotions such as Anger, Happiness, Sadness, etc. Particularly, she is terrible at expressing them, as her feeling something may simply just result in her bottling that feeling up and treating things as normal, until a Virtue Driver is needed, gets installed, and then explodes with the appropriate response to that emotion. However, in Zero Driver form, she is incredibly receptive and accepting of other's, as well as new ideas and ways of thinking. She values everything in life as a learning experience, and often will go out of her way to help someone, even if they're treating her like garbage. Her devotion to her duty as the Bulwark of Humanity is her guiding philosophy in life, believing Human Life to be the most precious thing in the universe, and as such, the thing most worth giving her artificial life for. Her capacity to care for others goes to borderline stalker levels, as she will often memorize someone's schedule, their eating habits, hobbies, interests, number of times they roll in their sleep, etc. As she has very much decided to try and make the former humans/half-human hybrids of the peerage as comfortable as possible, she has taken to becoming the Art Club's "Maid" in her Zero form, and seems to enjoy the concept of flowing clothes. She has a tendency to become obsessed over researching various aspects of human culture, from pornography, to manga, to horror movies in an effort to understand what is beneficial to humans, and what is interesting to them. This, as one could imagine, lead to many confusing conversation starters. [list][*]Kindness: Says it in the name, her attitude of caring for and spoiling people shoots through the roof, and she suddenly becomes unable to fight...anything, really. She abhors conflict of any kind, and tries to mediate as best she can. [*]Chastity: Ultra bubbly and peppy, her personality shifts to that of a hyperactive school girl with the strength to level a building. Completely oblivious to any kind of romantic or sexual implications, and forgets any actual information of how humans procreate temporarily, thinking that babies come from holding hands. She's also a hyper dense idiot that is a danger to other people normally. [*]Humility: A somewhat domineering personality boost that makes her much more...interested in other people. Particularly, in correcting behavior. She acts like an overbearing mother trying to get someone to straighten out, and has a tendency to come off as being sadistic, when she really is just trying to help someone shape up their attitude. However, she isn't full of herself in the slightest, and is often apologizing after her efforts to help someone have finished. [*]Abstinence: Protective and proud to the utmost, Abstinence gives Auriola an almost regal aura about her, being incredibly refined in taste, posture, and speech. One could mistake her for being of noble bearing, if not for the fact that she is literally a robot designed to fight shit. In addition to her regal prim and proper nature, she also has a terrible sense of humor, laughing at only the worst of jokes...making her the only Driver with a differing sense of humor. Or, a legitimate sense of humor, not just one built around reading the mood and scene around her. [*]Patience: Shyness and melancholy overtakes Auriola when in this state, often driving her to hide behind objects or people as she observes from afar. Incredibly terse and often showing little emotion, Patience has Auriola turn into the most deadly wallflower, putting all processing power to observation and awareness. Because of this, she is also mindful of others to an extreme degree, helping in small ways without saying anything half the time. [*]Generosity: The most lax of her personalities, often finding simple joys between humans to be the best thing in the world. As such, she's always trying to include everyone in everything, figuring that "the more, the merrier" might as well be a virtue in and of itself. This personality however is more than a bit pushy, often literally dragging people into things she think they might have fun doing, and often getting everybody in the peerage one massive potluck lunch if she's active at the time. [*]Diligence: A no-nonsense serious personality shift that seems to give her a permanent scowl whenever she sees...anybody not doing something to train. Like this, she is the most physically minded of the Drivers, and will often drag random peerage members out on morning jogs or to go lift weights. Big ones. Of course, she'll do anything if it constitutes as training, and will earnestly praise those who are trying their hardest. [/list] [b]History:[/b] Her creation is a mystery to her, but Auriola faintly remembers a shining light coming to her in the first nanoseconds of her operation time, telling her of her purpose: Protect Humanity. Such a simple command was issued with such expectation and meaning behind it, that in spite of her memory having been corrupted for the period of time between then and her awakening, she remembers it every night, as if waking in a dream. A being that was created to exemplify the seven tentative principles of human virtue, she would come by the name Auriola after being revived, a corruption of the name of the Auriolus Talisman depicting the seven archangels The sacred gear that received no name beyond a simple designation as a prototype, Counter Demon Peace Unit - 000 was created with the intention of not being a force used by a humans, but to be an independent force that no human could ever possess. Fighting side by side with humans, it's purpose in spite of its name was to protect humanity, at that time caught in the crossfires of the Great War. Her purpose was to save humans. And only, humans. As such, fallen angels, demons, and even angels that were believing her to be on their side were cut down if they laid hand on a member of her flock. She was deemed an utter failure, and for the longest time was kept locked away in order to find the faults in her design. She was systematically taken apart and put back together, time and time again until the war's conclusion, where she was violently dismantled by the Angel Faction, as she was perceived as a mindless machine with only the intent to kill in its programming. Her parts, while breakable, were not all able to be destroyed, as what remained of her was somehow stolen by a traitor to the faction, and was experimented on in the effort to produce more of her, aligned with their own. The years went by, and she remained offline, tied down and nothing more than a torso and head stripped of its power source. Centuries turned into millennia, and eventually she was deemed a failure once more, scrapped and discarded, with the intent being to destroy her entirely. Whether it was a miracle, or some act of divine intervention, she regained power and manages to escape by digging her way out with the help of the Observers of Humility, literally crawling with one arm in search of civilization before her power failed once again, this time in a remote thicket, far from anything or anyone for the longest time. That would have been the end for the twice failure, had someone else not given her the third and final chance she could take in life. A Knight shaped chess piece was fitted into her reactor within her chest, effectively reincarnating her as an Artificial Devil, coming online for the first time and obeyed her new master without reservation, able to see from her actions and personality that her likelihood of harming any human being was extremely slim. With her new found power source, she was able to restore her lost limbs without issue. Not to mention, she was now given the purpose in her mind to "Carry out Ixveria's Orders", And as such has joined the peerage as their resident Gynoid killing machine.
