[quote=@Aviaire] edit: side note, are we going to have a discord? [hider=Katherine Leblanc] [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/j4W9gDc.png[/img] [hr][hr][color=9CAADB][i][h3]"Hurry up! I'm gonna be late to class - again!"[/h3][/i][/color][/center] [color=9CAADB][b]Name[/b][/color] Katherine Leblanc [color=9CAADB][b]Nickname/Alias[/b][/color] Kath, Kathy, Katie, anything you can think of. Reactions may vary. [color=9CAADB][b]Age[/b][/color] 15 [color=9CAADB][b]Gender[/b][/color] Female [color=9CAADB][b]Race[/b][/color] Human [color=9CAADB][b]Appearance[/b][/color] Katherine is slightly above average, at 5'7. She's deceptively strong - at least for her build. Tastefully thin, she calls herself, if it weren't for the strict fitness routine she puts herself through she would be anything but. It's ridiculous how much sugar she eats. She's no bodybuilder, but she can lug Cameron around without breaking a sweat. She often has a lot of bandages all over her body from all of the injuries she can't remember getting. Katherine's hair is short and a bluish white she swears is natural. Catch her after she's just woken up and you'll see the worst bedhead known to man. One of her eyes is covered by her hair, though she does pin it up from time to time. Despite her cheerful personality, Katherine tends to look displeased when she's doing anything but smiling. She's been told it's intimidating. [color=9CAADB][b]Personality[/b][/color] Katherine is as sweet as sugar. She's peppy and energetic, a sociable person supported by her overwhelming confidence. For good reason too, she's a very capable Meister with a good brain to boot. Despite this, her accident prone nature means that things don't always go to plan, and her confidence has led to countless disappointments. Though she should be used to it by now, she reacts very badly to these. Her emotional and over-dramatic nature cause her to shut down. It doesn't take a whole lot to set her off either. It's never always sunshine and rainbows with Katherine. Just most of the time. She can be a little insufferable, stubborn and impatient with a healthy dose of inconsiderate. It's not intentional. She just lacks some self awareness. Katherine sees things as give and take. If she does something for someone, then they will eventually have to do something in return and vice versa. It just makes sense to her. She doesn't use this view to get people to do what she wants, but she tends to operate on this principle. The way she perceives the value of actions is a little skewed too. [color=9CAADB][b]Likes[/b][/color] • Desserts & baking them. • Playing the violin. • Shitty rom-coms. • Cam! [color=9CAADB][b]Dislikes[/b][/color] • Eggs. • Onions. • Waiting. • The cold. [color=9CAADB][b]Fears[/b][/color] • Small spaces and crowds. • Being lost. [color=9CAADB][b]Backstory[/b][/color] Katherine is the only daughter of two Meisters - Alison and Victor Leblanc. Her following in their footsteps was a surprise to no one. In fact, when she was a child her education was supported by material that would help her on her inevitable path. It isn't something she resents, even if she was given the choice she would have decided to become a Meister. They did the best they could to be there for her, but duty calls and it was no surprise when they would disappear every now and then. Katherine never did get used to the disappointment. She was never lonely, though. Other than the countless babysitters she'd had over the year, she had no difficulty making friends. People tend to like you more when you bake them stuff too. Most notably, the plain-looking boy with the camera she'd encountered one day. She'd demanded that he take photos of her with his poor feline model. He'd accepted, and from there their friendship blossomed. When they got paired together at the DWMA, you can imagine Katherine's delight. They became inseparable. It's kind of concerning, actually. [hr][hr] [color=9CAADB][b]Partner Name[/b][/color] Cameron Schumaker | [@stone] [color=9CAADB][b]Meister Abilities[/b][/color] Katherine is able to sense people's emotions from their soul. It doesn't go very far below surface level, she can only tell how someone is feeling at that point in time. If someone is trying to conceal their true emotions, she can only occasionally pick up on it. It depends on how good the person is and how much they're trying to repress their feelings. In a battle, Katherine can use this ability to identify who souls might be. It's a little fickle, as it's impossible to reliably tell who someone is based on their superficial emotions, but it's better than nothing. [color=9CAADB][b]Miscellaneous Abilities/Skills[/b][/color] • Like most Meisters, Katherine is very fit. • She usually works well under pressure, coming up quickly with tactics and ideas. The success rate isn't always stellar, but anything is better than nothing when your life is at risk. • Katherine excels at all of her hobbies - baking, violin, etc. It's not just because she put the work and hours in. She quit everything else. [color=9CAADB][b]Soul Resonance[/b][/color] Katherine draws in power and smashes the ground with Cameron, sending out a massive cone-shaped wave of force. This maneuver creates large fissures in the ground, as well as sending rocks and shrapnel upwards at aerial opponents. It's usually used as more of an area-control move than a finisher, but the two can put in more energy and get a much larger effect if needed. [color=9CAADB][b]Extra[/b][/color] • Katherine's known Cameron for quite a while. They get on excellently. He's always there for her when she needs him. She feels like she doesn't do enough for him in return, but hopefully she can make it up to him by showering him in baked goods. He seems to really like those.

His only other notable feature is a pair of extremely thick glasses. His vision is absolute garbage, requiring a +10 prescription just to function properly. He’s legally blind without them. Otherwise, his dark hair and smiling face are fairly bog-standard. He’s not particularly muscular, but he’s excellent at long-distance running (which he hates). Cameron mostly wears shorts and t-shirts, but often dons thicker clothing in order to lend them to Kath, who gets cold easily. In terms of accessories, he’s never without his camera, and is always looking for good shots and candids. [color=B1A597][b]Personality[/b][/color] Cameron embodies selflessness. He’s willing to help others at all times, and even goes out of his way to make sure hat those around him are comfortable. Unfortunately, he does it so much that it tends to get overbearing and annoying. He’s been working on toning it down recently, and is starting to make more friends as a result. He’s accepting, loving, and endlessly patient. Unfortunately, this does mean that he’s a bit of a doormat at times. His concern for others also leans on over-worrying, especially in regards to Katherine. He gets antsy when they’re apart for too long, as who knows what trouble she could be getting herself into?

While he didn't have many friends before moving, the transition to an entirely new environment basically ended his entire social life. Any friends he made, he lost fairly quickly due to his overbearing and fretful nature. As a result, Cam turned to solitary hobbies like reading and photography. He enjoyed the peaceful nature of taking it slow and steady, and often found himself wandering the streets of Death City in his free time, looking in bookshop windows and taking photographs. One sunny Saturday, Cam was readying his camera to capture a wandering cat when a force of nature swept him up and demanded his attention. A white-haired girl basically tackled the poor cat, then pestered Cam to take photos of her with it. Seeing no reason to refuse her, Cameron lined up the shot and captured what would be the first of many photos of Katherine. The girl then dragged him to her own home to download and print the copies, then sent him on his way. The two would later meet many times to talk and relax. Cameron was delighted to have a new friend, and she didn't seem to be bothered by all his worrying. She was clumsy and forgetful at times, and Cam was more than happy to help her whenever possible. It was even more of a joy when, later, the two met at the DWMA and joined as partners. They moved into the joint Meister and Demon Weapon dorms at the Academy, and have been inseparable since. Furthermore, with someone to focus all his worrying on, Cam has started to branch out and make more friends since enrolling at the DWMA. Life is good. [hr][hr] [color=B1A597][b]Partner Name[/b][/color] Katherine Leblanc | [@Aviaire] [color=B1A597][b]Weapon Form[/b][/color] A large battleaxe. [color=B1A597][b]Weapon Form Description[/b][/color] [hider=Like this but with a longer haft][img] https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/fireemblem/images/a/a6/Freikugel_CG.png/revision/latest?cb=20190801004926[/img][/hider] Cameron takes the shape of a 6 foot long axe when he shift into a weapon. The haft is 4.5 feet long, and the head makes up the rest. Unlike most demon weapons, he appears to be made of a bone-like substance. Regardless, h remains as durable and effective as any other demon weapon. [color=B1A597][b]Miscellaneous Abilities/Skills[/b][/color] While not particularly skilled, Cameron is capable of partial transformation and basic hand-to-hand combat. Most of his combat ability relies on planning, forethought, and research. He does not like taking risks. When not in combat, Cam dedicates most of his time instead to homemaking skills such as cooking and cleaning. He's skilled with a chef's knife, pair of knitting needles, and camera. He can't swim. [color=B1A597][b]Soul Resonance[/b][/color] Katherine draws in power and smashes the ground with Cameron, sending out a massive cone-shaped wave of force. This maneuver creates large fissures in the ground, as well as sending rocks and shrapnel upwards at aerial opponents. It's usually used as more of an area-control move than a finisher, but the two can put in more energy and get a much larger effect if needed. [color=B1A597][b]Extra[/b][/color] Cameron’s known Katherine for a long while, but he still can’t ever get used to her fighting style- Always improvising on the fly and never thinking about consequences. The plans do work out some of the time, but the stress isn’t good for his heart.[/hider] [/quote] This is a really sweet pairing! Both of the forms seem good, I have no problems with either, so feel free to pop them over to the Character tab! [b][color=39b54a]Welcome![/color][/b] [hr] [quote=@CelesteEste] And here is my weapon gal. Gonna finish the aesthetic part after I post, so I can start searching for a partner. [hider=Arle] [img]https://i.imgur.com/46bEg4S.png[/img] [b]Name[/b] Arlette Sylvestre [b]Nickname/Alias[/b] Arle [b]Age[/b] 15 [b]Gender[/b] Female [b]Race[/b] Demon Weapon [b]Appearance[/b] Taller than the average, standing at 1.71m, Arlette has a slender frame, slim enough to look agile but wide enough to not look lanky. Her eyes have a colour close to bright copper and her, often messy, wavy brown hair goes down just past her shoulder. She has noticeably sharp teeth, with fangs. For clothing, she says she doesn't care much, and while it's true that she doesn't seem to have an interest in fashion or looking tidy she clearly seems to favour a certain style, usually going for boots, loose white clothing with jackets or vests of contrasting darker colours. Her demeanour is typically confident, she rarely looks uncomfortable with herself unless she is stuck inside a room for too long. She has an intense stare, even when her facial expression is relaxed, though more often than not she looks a bit smug or annoyed. [b]Personality[/b] It is said Arlette was raised by wolves, the veracity of that is questionable as she is known to tell tall stories, though from her behaviour you would suspect that might as well be the case. Simply put, she does what she wants and has the social conventions at the bottom of her priorities, add that to a tendency to say what is in her mind plus a love for teasing and tricking others and you end up with a well-known trouble maker, albeit a cheerful, friendly one, who doesn't see the harm in her taunting and lack of a sense of personal space. In fact, once one crosses her, which is hard to do, all the playfulness stops and she starts to address such people fewer, colder words. It takes a long time to regain her trust once you break it. She is pretty active, often preferring the outdoors and the touchable practical, and quite brave, even liking to fight in fact, sometimes even bitting more than she can chew. While she has a natural practical 'cleverness' to her, not many would describe her as smart or knowledgeable and she certainly doesn't have grand views on society and the world, just wishing to not be bothered by either, she likes the simple things like eating, fighting and sleeping. While struggling with teamwork, often because she wants to do things her way, she is also quite protective and loyal, sometimes even described as a 'big sister type', ready to take as many hits as necessary so her allies are safe and often actively making sure they are not going too far or putting themselves in harm's way, which is ironic, considering she is prone to both.

[b]Weapon Form[/b] Double Bladed Scimitar [b]Weapon Form Description[/b] [img]https://i.imgur.com/MqimlyP.png[/img] She takes the form of something close to a bladed staff or a two-bladed sword, with the blade itself being branched. Design-wise it resembles what some would call "a tribal tattoo". The use of two blades sacrifices the finishing power of a single blade weapon but offers protection and the potential to keep up the pressure on opponents with sudden and constant slashes. [b]Miscellaneous Abilities/Skills[/b] She has good wilderness survival skills and a great sense of direction.
