• Name: Tian-Gui Jian
• Age: 18
• Gender: Male
• Class: Striker
• Nationality: Chinese
• Appearance: Tian-Gui stands at an impressive 6’5, the broadness of his shoulders augmented by his muscular build. He sports a light tan that serves to make his turquoise eyes stand out, and the Chinese youth prefers to keep his hair short, never longer than three inches in length. Though his angular face makes him appear more like the member of a boy band or whatever, his hands are heavily callused, and his body is filled with small scars from accidents on the fields.

• Bio: Born in the technological metropolis that was Shanhu, China, Tian-Gui probably would have lived a normal life if his single mother hadn’t died in a fire at her workplace when he was two years old. Thankfully, though emergency services weren’t competent enough to save her life, they were capable enough to locate his grandparents, who were more than happy to take in their late daughter’s son and raise him with the same affection she would have raised him with. And, just like that, Tian-Gui found himself relocated to the Japanese countryside, living with expat pensioners who had a cute little farm they toiled on to feed themselves.

He was raised wanting for nothing, and he was too young to remember his mother to begin with. His father was nothing more than a phantom in his genetics as well. His warmest memories were folding dumplings with his grandma and learning how to prune persimmon trees with his grandpa. He enjoyed hearing stories about his mother in her youth, a brash child that wasn’t anywhere near as obedient and reliable as he was, and being one of the young people in a community filled with the elderly, Tian-Gui quickly began to pick up odd jobs in every which direction. One Monday, Sawamura might need help with shingling on his roof. Another Thursday, and Cho’d want him to help with relocating the jars of kimchi. Weekends were spent helping one neighbor or the next with their flea market or farmer’s market stalls, chatting with newcomers and regulars alike. And homeschooled as he was, Tian-Gui spent the rest of his free time studying, becoming the helpful and refreshing, if not slightly bland, human being he is now.

Tian-Gui probably would have lived a normal life if he hadn’t caught the eyes of a recruiter during the National Center Test in Neo Kyoto. Thankfully, though the offer was a surprise when it landed on his doorstep, it also wasn’t an unwelcome surprise either. He hadn’t managed to score a spot in the university of his choice, after all, and his grandparents did have some particularly inspiring anecdotes about how his ancestors played some role or the other during the Second Genesis, so, well…

There he is now, one of the oldest newbies to be admitted to 2nd Tactical Arts Academy.

• Armament: Final Red is an armored suit that unravels from a red amulet worn by the wielder, transforming Tian-Gui into an imposing 7’5 behemoth clad in scarlet and gold plates, with a white mane stretching out from the back and pauldrons fashioned in the likeness of lions. The entire armor set is designed to be highly resistant to all forms of damage, but is especially resistant towards energy attacks, capable of absorbing them, storing them up within the suit, and then unleashing them as jets of flame. Final Red also works as a bludgeoning weapon in general, the additional mass added to a body making a Striker’s punches and kicks even more destructive than normal.

• Psychic Drive: Tian-Gui is able to create temporary psychic constructions made of a material he calls ‘Flamestone’, largely due to the fact that it sounds cool. Golden in hue and crystalline in property, he can use this to augment his defenses and quickly make a variety of simple structures or objects, from medieval weapons for smacking people with to walls and pillars that others can take cover behind to coffins meant for locking enemies inside of. Though these constructions must originate from himself, they can reach out to a fair distance and do not need to stay in contact with him afterwards. Unless he wills an early destruction or constantly repairs it, Tian-Gui’s Flamestone structures last around five minutes.

• Extra: Tian-Gui is practically immune to spicy foods, and has impressed quite a few restaurants with how much he could put away in his stomach…at least until they banned him afterwards.

• Name •
Kuni Durant

• Age •
17

• Gender •
Female

• Class •
Linker

• Nationality •
American


• Appearance •


Kuni is 1.8 meters tall, or 5"9 foot. She weighs about 68 kg, or 149 pounds. Her hair is brown, though it may appear as dark brown under darkness. Her eyes are probably the most interesting part about her, as they can appear to be both green and blue. Those who get to have a close look at her eyes can see that they are actually green, with an inner ring in her iris being blue.

• Bio •
Being born into the Durant family, Kuni's childhood was a particularly uneventful one. She was raised under the shadows of constantly being told of how her family was one of the greater innovator families back at the 19th century, when her great-grandfather's father helped form a car company. While this made her want to stand out less, it did invigorate her interest in engineering, and she started studying everything she could about machines from the age of six.

At the age of 9, she already showed quite high engineering capabilities when she constructed her own drone, one that successfully flied above the city they lived in, and made a safe return back. It did not survive a second flight due to an accident with a bird, but Kuni already felt quite fulfilled and happy with her achievement. She began making different drones, each one making her happy as she finished them and successfully tested them.

When she got to the age of 13, and she entered the 8th grade, Kuni began experiencing difficulties in her school. People did not understand why she was so focused on making silly toys, when the world was still dealing with the aliens. A few students had decided to prank her and got a hold of a few of her drones, and made a mess of them all. This hurt Kuni, who decided she didn't need the support or approval of the other students. All she needed was to keep herself focused on her engineering hobbies, but it was hard with the noise that came from all around.

Eventually, before she turned 14, Kuni found her shelter in music, and she started listening to music whenever she went outside of their house, and while at school. Her favorite types were orchestra pieces, as the way all of the instruments came together reminded her of how a well built engine can run if everything finds its right place.

When she turned 16, the bullying at the school had gotten worse, and her parents decided to move to Japan in order to try and help her find a new place to study at, one where she could have some peace. They also felt that she would be able to prosper there, as they felt Japan was quite advanced in the engineering department.

At the age of 17, she had received an offer to join the 2nd Tactical Arts Academy, as she apparently performed well during the National Center Test. While her parents were reluctant, Kuni convinced them to let her go there, as she felt that not only will she be able to help with the remainder of the fighting against the aliens, but she hoped that perhaps, she could help advance the tech they used to fight the invaders to a new level.


• Armament •
Kuni's armament comes in the shape of an offensive drone, which she dubbed Dee. It comes equipped with a pair of medium scaled laser blasters, and a small camera. Due to the weight that comes from the laser blasters and the camera, the drone normally does not hover too far off the ground, up to a maximum of 20 meters. Thanks to the camera, Kuni is capable of aiding her team by controlling the drone and scouting with it, beyond the normal capabilities of a Linker.

Dee has a secret compartment, one which can be accessed by anyone who knows how to open it. It can be used to store and hide things that can be deemed as things that need to be retrieved, but better to leave somewhere that won't be on the team. The compartment can store things that are about the size of 2 pistols that are side by side.

In order to give herself protection, Kuni has a small laser pistol on her person, which she was trained to use.

• Psychic Drive •
Kuni has the ability to make things and people hover, up to a few meters off the ground. The bigger the object or person, the more she needs to concentrate on making them hover. Whenever she makes something or someone hover, they gain a bluish aura around them. In order to make anything or anyone hover, she needs to see the object or person, and she cannot keep something hovering for an extended period of time (A minute at most, for hovering a person that weighs as much as her.)

She can control where the people or objects hover to, but the more things or people she makes hover, the less control she has. And if she reaches her limit, then everything and everyone will drop immediately, without any warning. Finally, she can only control the speed of the hover if she concentrates on a single thing or person. Any more, and everything that hovers will be hovering as a relatively slow speed.

• Extra •

~ While Dee is her combat-ready drone, Kuni also has a smaller drone, Mio, one that is pocket sized. It also has a camera equipped, but no weapons, and it also has a VI installed on it. Kuni normally keeps the knowledge of it to herself, and takes it out whenever she feels like having some company, but not human company.

~ Kuni will normally have headphones on her person, and typically covering her ears or in her ears, depending on the type. It's how she learned to avoid contact with people. It does not mean she always listens to music.

~ As a prodigy engineer, Kuni has an eye for any kind of tech, always wanting to take things apart and see how they work. The bigger they are, the more attractive they will seem for her.

Name:
Akari Saito

Age:
17

Gender:
Female

Class:
Gunner

Nationality:
Japanese

Appearance:
  • Height: 5 Feet 7 Inches
  • Weight: 150 Lbs
  • Build: Athletic


Bio:
Akari spent her early years in an orphanage, but she didn't mope or whine during her stay. She remained positive, after all, she had never known her real parents so she didn't feel attached to them or worry about them leaving her. Her optimism soon led to her adoption, and at the age of five, she was in a new home.

Akari's older brother, Keiran, was a big influence in her life. Six years older than her, he was her protector and mentor. So, when he got accepted into The 2nd Tactical as a Striker she knew she had to follow in his footsteps. She was more than driven, starting a vigorous training regimen at the age of twelve. She soon learned that close quarters combat wasn't her calling, and decided to work with long-range weaponry instead, a field she was far more comfortable in.

Akari still carries the drive she developed when she was twelve. There are times when she can be too driven, so focused on a goal that she forgets to eat and sleep. Luckily, she had a loving family that taught her the importance of self-care. Adaptable, she usually adjusts to new situations with an easy smile. Whenever she's thrown into battle, she becomes hyper-focused and does what it takes to win.

Armament:

Akari's dual pistols, Discord (left-hand) and Harmony (right-hand) are Energy weapons. They shoot beams, discs, and bolts of plasma from the triangular muzzle depending on what they're set to. Equipped with a biometric scanner on the trigger, Discord and Harmony can't be shot by anyone whose fingerprint isn't recognized. The clips of gas can take up to two days of frequent shooting to run out, and are interchangeable as well as refillable. Discord and Harmony are extremely lightweight in comparison to most handguns, making them perfect for someone who utilizes speed and rapid-fire attacks.

Psychic Drive:
Akari's Psychic Drive, Concussion, is the ability to generate small orbs of yellowish aura. Upon striking their intended target, these orbs create a concussive blast (the force of which depends on the size of the sphere) that sends the target flying. Akari utilizes these blasts by creating small spheres at her feet. Once they touch the ground below her, the resulting blast launches her around. She's become adept at controlling the intensity of the blast and where she lands, but she has been known to over/underestimate the size of the orbs and launching herself too much or too little. She also has a limit as far as how many balls she can create. At this time, she can only create five medium-sized orbs (around the size of a grapefruit), two large orbs (bowling ball size), or ten small orbs (the size of a lemon) before feeling the effects of her Drive. This will drain her stamina, effectively making her slower. Being tossed around can also cause body/head aches.
  • A small orb, being the size a lemon, can toss someone Akari's weight around ten/fifteen feet.
  • A medium-sized orb, being the size of a grapefruit, would be able to launch someone her weight about thirty feet.
  • A large orb, which is the size of a bowling ball, would be capable of launching someone her weight around fifty/sixty feet.
  • A massive orb (something Akari would only be able to create once before completely exhausting herself) the size of a beach ball, would be able to launch someone in a full suit of light-medium weight armor thirty feet.

Basic Info

• Name: Lucia Juste-Enfant
• Age: 19
• Gender: Female
• Class: Striker
• Nationality: French
• Appearance:


• Bio: Lucia was always taught that the blood of heroes ran in her veins. Her family has a long history of military service, dating all the way back to the Napoleonic Wars, culminating in her Great Grandfather earning a rank of Commander in the Legion of Honor during the Second World War. Being told of the family history in her childhood did much to inspire her to follow suit. And when it so happened that she benefited from the effects of the Second Genesis, she saw her chance to do so... were it not for one problem.

That problem was her latent ability. It allowed her to generate energy from herself, but not in any way that was useful. And it seemed no amount of personal practice would be changing that. Given this, it seemed to Lucia her chances of gaining entrance to any academy was slim and none. In her disappointment, however, her childhood friend who had a gift for research and development approached her and her family with an idea; he had designs on a device that could utilize Lucia's ability as a power source and shape it into powerful tools that would enable her to follow the path she wanted. It took some pleading from Lucia herself, but eventually her friend was given permission, not to mention a large chunk of cash, to develop a prototype. Mercifully, it worked as planned, and with it in hand Lucia was off to pursue acceptance into the academy.

Combat Info

• Psychic Drive: Lucia's drive allows her to generate and project a form of energy similar to that used by beam weapons, but on her own it is spread so thinly and disperses so easily that it only registers as light radiation and cannot be used for much. With the help of her Armament, however...
• Armament: Maltet- Less of a weapon and more of a support device, Lucia's Armament is a set of armor (shown in her picture) and a sword hilt that act as both limiters and an array of focusing irises for her ability; when active, they compress and confine the energy she projects into usable formats. With the help from Maltet she's able to use her ability to deploy barriers for protection, booster flares for bursts of speed, and a powerful beam saber for striking her enemies.

• Extra:
Lucia's Theme
Lucia is taller than most women, standing 6'0"
Her Drive burns calories like nobody's business when in use, which leads to her being a big eater and keeping her shape without really trying.

• Name: Nakamura Yui

• Age: 16

• Gender: Female

• Class: Striker

• Nationality: Japanese

• Appearance: 5'2" (157.5 cm), 115 pounds (52.2 kg)

• Bio: The lackadaisical daughter of war hero parents in a military family, Yui was destined for greatness. Together with her two brothers, they shared an incredible upbringing. However, unlike her siblings, Yui didn't have much of a drive to reach any pinnacle of strength. In fact, she didn't have much of a drive to do anything. She did what her parents told her, but only did the bare minimum. Unlike her brothers, she didn't train until her organs shifted in her body and she vomited blood. Her aptitude was there, but her determination wasn't.

While she didn't have much drive for fighting invaders, her parents certainly did. They instilled upon her hundreds of years of military knowledge and technique. From feudal times to the Second Genesis, her family had taken arms during every conflict. Yui, along with her siblings, was to do the same for the future. Without any real reason to decline the future her parents created for her (besides saying she didn't feel like it—an invalid excuse), she had applied to the 2nd Tactical Arts Academy: Yamato.

• Armament: With a 6' blade and a 2' handle, Okinami is an abnormally large sword. Styled in the manner of a traditional Japanese sword, Okinami lacks one fundamental: the tsuba. Lacking any sort of hand guard, the sword adheres to one principal: absolute offense. The blade of the sword consists of two components. The outer layer is made from an extremely durable alloy that protects a wire core. Made from a highly unstable element, the ultra-heavy core rapidly decays into two ultra-light isotopes. However, when electricity passes through the core, the isotopes reform into the core. This means that the blade can, using electricity stored within the hilt, freely control its own weight via controllers within the battle wrap, from 5 pounds to 75.

• Psychic Drive: Yui has the ability to supercharge her internals in stages. Affectionately named Ignition Engine, Yui can forcefully increase her physical capabilities at a cost to her health. This generally only lasts for short durations, however. When her Ignition Engine wears off, her body begins to revert to its original form—at any cost. The duration and stage when she returns dictates the damage that results from the rapid changes. This can range from exhaustion and broken bones to, in worst case scenarios, death.

The first stage puts every organ in her body into maximum overdrive. Her heart beats twice as fast and her brain works overtime. Each muscle tears itself into two, then rapidly regenerates. Each vein on her body swells to the surface and her skin turns a flush red. While the strain is tremendous, her physical capabilities practically double.

The second stage starts a dangerous metamorphosis. Her skin begins to crystallize and resemble durable scales. Her internal body heat begins to boil her blood and her physical capabilities begin to double once again. Most notably, a crystalline horn begins to form on her forehead, along with small crystal spikes that form on her back.

For the sake of her own safety, Yui has only gone beyond the first stage once.

• Extra:
  • Despite not wanting to do anything, she's surprisingly reliable whenever asked to do something.
  • She's a rather avid reader, but loses interest in every book at around the half-way point.
  • She can sustain herself for years on a strict diet of soda and potato chips.

• Sample Post:

"Come on, that cruel voice commanded, you can do better than that!"

"Kind of can't." Yui moaned.

For a military family, discipline was key. From a young age, they were to be trained into the finest soldiers the Nakamuras could offer to the world. For Yui, this was a hellish training session that she participated in out of obligation. For mere training, it was absurd. Push a car half a kilometre? Sure, it was a kei car, but what sort of father forced their twelve year old child to push a car that far? Despite her objections, she pushed. Foot after foot, the car moved towards its goal. Her bones ached and her muscles screamed at her. Soon, the back tires passed over a thick white line.

"Aaaaand I'm done."

Yui collapsed onto the ground and her voice rang out like a hymn from the angels. Even if it was only self-assurance, it was a brief moment of respite. An exasperated sigh escaped from the lips of her father as he walked away from her. Her exhausted body refused to listen to any command her brain sent. She just wanted to lay on the ground and take in the sun. Breath in the atmosphere, as they would say. It was a really nice day out. She would easily beat up one of her brothers to get some snacks and a nice book. To just laze in the summer heat would be enjoyable, she thought. Much more enjoyable than training.

"Yui!" That cruel voice yelled out, "time for sword practice!"

With a heavy groan, Yui sat up from her lazy stupor. If only to get another moment lazing around, she would train. Well, it wasn't like she had anything better to do, anyways.

• Name: Alistair Thorne

• Age: 15

• Gender: Male

• Class: Striker

• Nationality: British

• Height | Weight: 167cm | 67kg

• Bio:

Al grew up being told stories, passed down from his grandparents, of the time they lived in London. Before the great city was destroyed by them…

He grew up in what was left of Okinawa since his grandparents had fled there a long time ago when the invaders first attacked. His life was quite and they were not on the mainland. This made the threat of attack all that much greater. The island was very sparsely populated and very out of the way so it was mostly spared during the Second Genesis. Though, it proved too little land for too many people at the time, at least that's what Al learned in his history classes at primary school.

At a young age his mother allowed him to start learning martial arts. She had feared that he would use what he learned against other children at school but she realized pretty quickly that he was generally level headed. He took up Fencing and Aikido. They had been adapted to use a combination of traditional swords, vibroblades and beam swords. Al had grown proficient with all three.

His desire to help fight off anything which could endanger the life his family had made for themselves was ever present from his youth. So he excelled in his martial studies, sometimes training after hours to hone his skill. There were a few broken bones and many, many, bruises along the way. But he didn't care, he was determined. As his mother often said, “Tenacity!” The one word had stuck with him for years.

By the time Al was in his early teens he had earned a black belt in Aikido and had honors in Fencing. It was also around this time that he was contacted about potential attendance at the 2nd Tactical Arts Academy. He was excited to attend and finally be able to help the world maintain what they had worked so hard to rebuild. When his letter of acceptance finally arrived, he felt a renewed vigor to follow the path he had been following for years.

• Armament:

: A perfectly balanced vibrorapier, awarded to Alistair upon his elevation to the Order of the Lotus; a ceremonial knighting in the historical rapier organization he is a part of.

: A beamsword which, when activated, emits a thin curved blade.

: The katana Alistair was given after receiving his first black belt. It is razor edged and crafted from folded steel. While not as effective as Judicium or Taiyō in terms of cutting or piercing power, he is more comfortable with this blade and has proven to be more proficient with it, despite its disadvantages. He typically leaves this particular sword on its mount in his dorm; it carries non-intrinsic value.

• Psychic Drive:

Seventh Eye: When activated, Alistair's eyes process information at a greatly increased rate. This makes everything around him seem much slower, allowing for him to fight more effectively with seemingly inhuman reaction time.

• Sample Post:

“Al!” Alistair's mother's voice broke through the blockade of the headphones blasting American soft rock into his ears. She had also banged pretty hard on his door. “You're going to be late for school!” She was his coach, his alarm clock and his mother. She pushed him further than he would ever go and, as mundane as it seemed, she never let up on that. Not even when waking him up in the morning.

He had, of course, already been awake. “I'm up mum!” He called back, taking one earphone out, before she broke another barrier and barged into his small bedroom. The traditional katana he had been gifted, when he received his black belt, was mounted just above his door. It had noticeably shifted when Alistair's mother banged on the door.

“You've got fifteen minutes. Alright sweetie?” Her voice had calmed down.

“Yup, I'll be out in just a few.” He had just finished his fiftieth push up. As much as he didn't like it, he did have to train. Alistair had a very fast metabolism. He ate mountains of food and never gained weight. He had gotten into the habit of exercising for thirty minutes when he got up and before he went to bed, every day. He never seemed to hold onto much muscle. This was his life though, you could have all of the skill in the world but if you had no strength to back it up then it wasn't going to be terribly useful. Only the most practiced martial artists, who'd been training for more than forty years, didn't need any strength.

Fifteen minutes later he was in the people carrier on his way to school. He knew something was going to go well for him that day.
