[hider=Yukine Chris] [b]Name:[/b] Yukine Chris [b]Appearance:[/b] [img]https://s18.postimg.org/jji1ikrzd/Chris_Yukine_Characters_Design_in_G.png[/img] [b]Personality:[/b] [img]https://s18.postimg.org/uj38uh0hl/BEST_GIRL.jpg[/img] Originally Chris is hot-headed, antagonistic, and aggressive, and quick to distrust others. Though she has since grown out of her grouchy and almost consistently angry self into a more gentle person, she still has trouble expressing herself properly without just lashing out. She gets embarrassed easily and is somewhat socially maladjusted and awkward. Physical, intimate, or romantic gestures often lead to Chris getting flustered, even simple gestures such as hand-holding even if she's not involved in the actions, merely witnessing it is enough to cause her to start taking in more of her theme color. [hider=BIO] [b]Bio:[/b] In order to hopefully not spoil too much for those who haven't seen the series yet I shall keep this one short (but still have enough information to give one somewhat of an idea of what she has gone through). Orphaned at a young age, Chris has spent most of that time basically being treated as nothing more than an object and used as such... [img]https://s18.postimg.org/665pofind/Screenshot_1130.png[/img] [img]https://s18.postimg.org/dbxgr4rt5/Screenshot_1131.png[/img] [img]https://s18.postimg.org/zb3vecgd5/Screenshot_1132.png[/img] Which while not explicitly stated, Is pretty clear that it was sexual in nature. Used and Abused... Chris spends a good four years suffering in the pit of despair before she happily gets rescued by a UN operation... After which she's immediately kidnapped and then in addition to being used for sexual pleasure, she's also used as a human lab rat... It did come with perks, her relic, Ichaival being one of them. Though on balance, it was still a shitty deal. Happily (more so this time) she gets out of this new hole she's gotten herself into with a bit of help from friends, the first friends she's had... And then she lived happily never after, Because fate isn't quite done throwing her and her new friends into more pits, be it of despair, self doubt and self loathing. I'd spoil even more if I continued, but I can guarantee that she did well enough, and has a rare position of being both a Senpai and a Kohai. She finds herself employed as one of the attuned gear users of the Squad of Nexus Guardians of the Special Disaster Response Team. Which as their designation suggest are tasked with assisting in disasters around the world in a fancy, colorful and musical way. [/hider] [b]Age:[/b] 17 [b]Skills:[/b] [img]https://s18.postimg.org/juzhvpqjd/Senki_Zesshou_Symphogear_G_-_Ichaival.jpg[/img] She is one hell of a singer, with a range to boot... And this will come in handy... Without donning her gear, she's actually not very good at many things aside from the singing part. She doesn't have as much stamina as her fellow gear users and she's also lacking in unarmed fighting ability. She is skilled at improvising on the spot, thinking up of tactics, gambits, plans and decision making with quick thinking. It may not be well thought out plans, but having a bad one is better than having none. In her gear, Chris easily has the most destructive potential with the abilities and weapons of Ichaival (which she initially refused to use because of it's destructiveness). Combining it with her quick thinking and inventive uses of the gear's various weapons, backed with an aggressive song, Chris is a dangerous opponent for one to face, and even more so as a group. The Relic, Ichaival (A bow said to turn one arrow shot into ten) has a Symphogear form that specializes in ranged combat. It clads her in armor, maintained by a song, the music being played by the gear itself and the vocals being provided by the wearer, Chris. Chris has access to bows, crossbows, guns, missiles... And of course bigger versions of all three. While designed for range combat, Chris mastery of the gear and it's weapons allow her to fight up close in a sufficient enough manner that she can hold her own in a close combat fight with someone who has the skills and the equipment specifically designed for close combat. The Symphogear system massively boosts the physical capabilities of the wearer and at the same time protects them from harm. So effective is the protection that it allows them survival even in space or within close proximity to a nuclear reaction and detonation. Originally designed to combat Noise which has a Phase Contrast Barrier. This barrier allows the Noise to adjust what is called their Existence Ratio with the current world to levels ranging from 100% (able to fully interact with the world) to 0% (impossible to interact with) to render attacks governed by the laws of physics completely ineffective. The Phase Contrast Barrier allows the Noise to accomplish this by allowing them to shift/phase their existence across multiple planes of existence (think a pseudo-version of Saber's Avalon from Fate/Stay Night). The Symphogear system overcomes this by allowing each strike to multiply itself across multiple parallel worlds and forcibly "tune" (drag) the Noise into the relevant plane of existence and make them susceptible to the normal laws of physics. (Source: Symphogear Keyword Compendium). The basic weapons are a pair of crossbows (one for each hand) that can fire anywhere from one to five homing, explosive, energy bolts. Next in line are a pair of automatic pistols which is her preferred weapons for melee and extreme close quarters fighting. Apart from those two basic weaponry Ichaival has some named weapon systems (presumably named by Chris herself) and combinations of weapon systems. [color=ed145b][b]BILLION MAIDEN:[/b][/color] [img]https://s18.postimg.org/cvguiqbix/Billion_Maiden.png[/img] This is why my personal nickname for Chris Yukine is Dakka-Chan... This is her preferred weapon system, basically dual wielding twin-linked Gatling guns. [color=ed145b][b]MEGA DETH PARTY:[/b][/color] [img]https://s18.postimg.org/hveaqf1nd/Mega_Deth_Party.jpg[/img] A weapon system that launches two dozen soda can sized homing missiles. [color=ed145b][b]MEGA DETH QUARTET:[/b][/color] [img]https://s18.postimg.org/9d4um6iax/Mega_Deth_Quartet.jpg[/img] After a few seconds of charging (through singing of course) Her gear assembles a quartet of missiles of significant size for use either as a weapon or as transportation via surfing. The large missiles can also be used as payload munitions where each one carries the smaller missiles from MEGA DETH PARTY. [color=ed145b][b]MEGA DETH FUGA:[/b][/color] [img]https://s18.postimg.org/uo2eq4nh5/Mega_Deth_Fuga.png[/img] Half priced quartet, half the time to charge, half the missiles... Still can surf with em tho... [color=ed145b][b]MEGA DETH SYMPHONY:[/b][/color] [img]https://s18.postimg.org/5usupmhd5/Megadeth_Symphony.png[/img] This time there's six, but with Missiles that split into more numerous smaller ones with enough velocity to bury themselves into rock. MEGA DETH INFINITY [img]https://s18.postimg.org/u02sm9sw9/vlcsnap-2018-01-08-18h27m20s251.png[/img] Just... more missiles... [color=ed145b][b]GIGA ZEPPELIN:[/b][/color] [img]https://s18.postimg.org/91ne94jrt/Giga_Zeppelin.jpg[/img] Her Crossbows grow in size to load large segmented crystal bolts that once fired will break apart into numerous crystal shrapnel that pepper the target. [color=ed145b][b]QUEEN's INFERNO:[/b][/color] [img]https://s18.postimg.org/jicp332qh/Queen_s_inferno.jpg[/img] Adds 200% more bolt slots on the basic crossbow form, allowing the weapon system to effectively triple it's rate of fire. [color=ed145b][b]ARTEMIS SPIRAL:[/b][/color] [img]https://s18.postimg.org/xuwya8d7d/Artemis_Spiral.png[/img] The weapon system takes the form of a large bow, from which Chris fires a high velocity rocket as an "arrow" [color=ed145b][b]RED HOT BLAZE:[/b][/color] [img]https://s18.postimg.org/68u6p0jeh/Red_Hot_Blaze.png[/img] [img]https://s18.postimg.org/p161spaop/Red_Hot_Blaze_Close_Combat.png[/img] A long range sniping weapon variation for when Chris can't afford to just spray the entire area with ordnance. Also useful for hitting people with... [b]And for some of the less often used systems:[/b] [color=ed145b][b]SUPERB SONG:[/b][/color] [img]https://s18.postimg.org/wh5belduh/Screenshot_1133.png[/img] Ichaival's Superb Song has never actually been seen in its real form. It's supposed to be a wide-area bombardment ability devoid of blind spots. Chris, however, modified it using Ichaival's reflectors to turn it into a directed energy attack. Of which it has the ability to nearly match a weapon fed by an infinite source of energy. I'm pretty sure Chris wouldn't want to use the original variation of her Superb Song while being on the same planet as something or someone she holds dear. [color=ed145b][b]REFLECTORS:[/b][/color] [img]https://s18.postimg.org/q4q64vl3t/Screenshot_1134.png[/img] A swarm of crystals which can project a very powerful barrier as well as redirect the energy produced by Chris's Ichaival. These little buggers are what allowed her to turn the wide area effect of her superb song into one coherent blast. [color=ed145b][b]IGNITE MODULE:[/b][/color] [img]https://s18.postimg.org/h9pbuiond/Screenshot_1135.png[/img] This system taps into the inner rage inherent within everyone... And there is a lot rage in Chris... This is one of the simplest systems... It's a straight up power up... Dakka-chan basically gets darker, edgier more powerful, and most importantly, more Dakka. Effects include but are not limited to (this are the only one's shown in series) increased physical ability boost for the gear user, remove the charge up time on MEGA DETH QUARTET and allows MEGA DETH PARTY to fire a continuous fusillade of missiles instead of just a single launcher full. [color=ed145b][b]X-DRIVE:[/b][/color] [img]https://s18.postimg.org/phr9f4qq1/Chris_X-_Drive_GX.png[/img] Achieved only via massive amounts of phonic gain (aka having a lot of other people singing with the gear user or having multiple gear users sing together) this sort of power-up is much more complex as it allows the gear to manifest weapons and systems previously unusable to the wearer, even vehicles. In Chris's case, it reduces her compliment of missiles and replaces them instead with about ten times as much in the form of beam cannons and guns. [color=ed145b][b]ARMOR PURGE:[/b][/color] [img]https://s18.postimg.org/ejklaurk9/Screenshot_1136.png[/img] Chris forcibly detonates any relic she's wearing and turns them into energy projectiles that radiate around her. This leaves her naked for a few minutes before the energy coalesces around her and reform the clothes she wore before wearing the gear and the relic pendant (if the relic came in such a form like her Ichaival). [b]Faction:[/b] Unaffiliated Also here's the Missile surfing that's oft mentioned she could do. [img]https://s18.postimg.org/5r8815gg9/Screenshot_1137.png[/img] [/hider]
