[color=f26522][b]Name[/b][/color]: Bayard
[color=f26522][b]Gender[/b][/color]: Male

[color=f26522][b]Appearance[/b][/color]: In his true form, Bayard is a heterochromatic black and tan hound that stands at 63cm in height. There are two vertical scars running down the left side of his face, starting from the forehead, running over his eyelids and down the side of his face, coming to a stop above his neck. On the right side of his face, another jagged scar runs nearly horizontally over his neck, as if someone had tried beheading him. 
In his human form, he possesses a slender physique, standing at 168cm tall. Shaggy black and brown hair, he retains his scars and heterochromatic eyes. His attire consists of a black, high-collared, long sleeve shirt, black slacks, brown boots and brown fingerless gloves. 

[color=f26522][b]Arcana[/b][/color]: The Moon

[color=f26522][b]Power[/b][/color]: Like the other Awakened Shadows, he can transform into a human form. His other ability, Chameleon, is limited to nighttime when the moon is out, and directly tied to how much moonlight there is. He is able to bend the moonlight to hide himself by blending into his surroundings. Of course, the brighter the moon, the more thoroughly he blends in. 

[color=f26522][b]Weapons[/b][/color]: A [url=https://images.metmuseum.org/CRDImages/aa/web-large/36.25.692ab_010june2014.jpg]katar[/url] dagger.

[color=f26522][b]Personality[/b][/color]: Bayard's personality is an ambiguous one: For the most part, he comes off as a sweet, docile, and sometimes shy youth when around people, whether they be friends, acquaintances or strangers. He usually shies away from attention, preferring to observe instead of being observed. Polite speech, courteous manners and quiet voice all contribute to people taking less notice of him, and lessens the chances of him making any impactful impression. As he gives off an honest and simple vibe, people tend to lower their guards around him, allowing themselves to be easily manipulated by him. As such, Bayard's role lies in being a spy and scout, leading people astray or gathering information.

However, his seemingly docile demeanour masks his darker side, which is that of a cold, ruthless, and calculating individual who has little problem in using others for his ends, which is ensuring his survival. He will resort to cruel and mostly violent methods if he truly feels threatened. He knows what he is - simply a being of congealed negative emotions - and he fears disappearing. Death is an absolution, one he doesn't mind. It is the thought of his physical body gone but his consciousness remaining that terrifies him. He doesn't like being a Shadow, constantly worried that he might vanish without a trace, but he can't become human either. Beneath all the violent and ruthless tendency lies self-disgust, paranoia and a need to prove that he can do something, even if it's working towards a goal he didn't care a whit about.

[color=f26522][b]Persona Name[/b][/color]: Nue

[color=f26522][b]Ultimate Persona[/b][/color]: Yet unknown

[color=f26522][b]Persona Appearance[/b][/color]: A large beast with the head of a monkey, the ears and horns of a goat, the body of a tiger and a tail of a snake - the top half of a snake, that is. 

[color=f26522][b]Persona Skills[/b][/color]: Curse Boost, Eiha, Bless Resist, Cleave, Bufu
Nue is a Persona mainly focused on Curse and is weak to Bless. It resists Ice but is weak to Fire. 

[color=f26522][b]Character Relevance[/b][/color]: The Nue's various animal parts in one body represents Bayards ambiguous personality: cold and ruthless like a snake, elusive like a monkey, docile like a goat and violent like a tiger. In addition, Nue is a beast shunned by humans as the bringer of disasters but refrained from interacting with other mythical beings due to its strange appearance which it loathes.
