[color=fdc68a][u][b]Personality:[/b][/u][/color]

	A bright and vibrant girl, this version of Hou Yi was summoned as a young adult, just after she had performed her feat of the nine suns. Despite her outward appearance and personality, Hou Yi still remembers the pain of the loss of her beloved along with the burn of her feelings of betrayal, causing her to resemble more of a tyrant than the hero she was once regarded as. She believes in protecting the people, no matter how that may be interpreted in her warped view of the world. Despite this preconception about her behavior, she still believes that all of her actions are justified as they are the actions of a ‘hero’ who wishes to act ‘for good’ with little to no disregard to how exactly she goes about to achieve that ‘good.’
	Also because of her memories of her departed lover, she has an almost solemn approach to anything she must do after the sun has set. That being said, at nighttime, Yi’s personality seems to dampen, her actions becoming more crude and brash whenever the moon shines bright in the sky. This does not apply on evenings of new moons and is worst on evenings of full moons. She claims to have forgiven her lover for the betrayal regarding the elixir of immortality, making a point to set out some form of sweet or offering to her past lover every night, but in truth she still harbors feelings of anger and desires some form of closure over the whole situation.
	Due to the nature of her death, Hou Yi also has a bit of irrational fear of peaches. Simply put – she hates them. Don’t mention them, don’t offer them to her, don’t anything. She hates peaches. Lastly, Hou Yi seems to have an innate fascination with tigers of the modern age and any historical mention of dragons. In her legends she used a bow made of tiger’s bones and arrows made of dragon’s ligaments, hence her complete obsession with the two.
 
[color=fdc68a][u][b]Objective for the Grail:[/b][/u][/color]

	To regain her divinity. Due to the changes in her behavior after being betrayed by her lover, the world came to see her as a heartless tyrant. Hou Yi desires to regain the adoration and the trust people had in her previously by proving her ‘goodness’ via the approval and actions of a divinity.

[color=fdc68a][u][b]Biography:[/b][/u][/color]

	http://chinabuddhismencyclopedia.com/en/index.php/Houyi#The_death_of_Houyi - a younger Hou Yi who has been genderbent along with a genderbent version of Chang'e.

[color=fdc68a][u][b]Weapon:[/b][/u][/color]

	Hou Yi prefers to use her bow from the legends in normal combat.
 
[color=fdc68a][u][b]Parameters:[/b][/u][/color]

	Strength: C
	Endurance: D
	Agility: B
	Magic: C
	Luck: E
        	
[color=fdc68a][u][b]Class Skills (Archer):[/b][/u][/color]

[i]Independent Action B:[/i]
	Ability to survive for a time even without a Master (Servants without this can only last for a matter of moments if their Master dies). Hou Yi, haven single-handedly taken out many threats to China was also only able to do all of these because he was commanded to do so by the emperor of the time, restricting her from being a high level in this skill.

[i]Magic Resistance C:[/i]
	Immunity/resistance to a certain level of spells. Hou Yi, despite her history of accomplishments and feats, was also struck with a rather unlucky life, including dying by a strike to the head by a mortal's club. Because of this she has a lower magic resistance than would initially be assumed for her.
 
[color=fdc68a][u][b]Personal Skills:[/b][/u][/color]

[i]Affection of the Moon Goddess EX:[/i]
	Similar to a blessing of protection granted by the moon. Chang’e, Hou Yi’s spouse, is a divinity representative of the moon. In the same sense, it could be considered that Hou Yi is one who would be called the beloved of the moon, and thus offered it’s blessing and protection. The moon’s blessing for a beloved could take the form of a pressure that tempers their bodies like steel. However, for Hou Yi, the moon’s blessing takes the form of a pressure that weighs down on her opponent’s, resembling the influence that the moon could have on the tides.

[i]Clairvoyance A:[/i]
	The visual ability that is also called “Eagle Eye”. This is a must-have ability of the Archer Class. It is also frequently used during scouting. Simply looking from a high location is sufficient to fully survey the town and search for enemies. In addition, Clairvoyance will affect the accuracy of bows. At rank A, Hou Yi has a limited form of future sight and is not affected by visual impairments.

[i]Palace of the Sun B:[/i]
	Similar to the Caster class’s “Territory Creation,” but as opposed to building a special terrain that is advantageous to oneself as a magus, such as for the purpose of collecting mana, Hou Yi’s skill enables her to fortify or strengthen a previously built structure into one that is advantageous for her to fight from. Hou Yi, who was requested by the Queen Mother of the West Xi Wang Mu, had once built a palace on the Sun, expressing her architectural prowess. At rank B, Hou Yi is able to enforce any previously existing structure into one that could be considered a “god-forged fortress”, however such a fortress could only be achieved after months of preparation.

[i]Lord Yi EX:[/i]
	The skill that is Hou Yi’s ability with a bow. As the legends tell, Hou Yi was a mortal who was able to slay, maim and imprison several other mythical beasts such as Yayu, Zaochi, Jiuying, Dafeng, Fengxi and Xiushporn without ever missing a single one of her shots. For Hou Yi, her skill with a bow never faltered, she always managed to hit the target she desired. Along with this, she was also able to be in complete control of how the arrow caused damage, whether she was aiming to kill, or just to damage. It would not be incorrect to say that Hou Yi had perfected control of her bow and arrows. For some servants, this could be considered alike to a noble phantasm, but for Hou Yi this is simply a matter of her own abilities with a bow. At which point, it would be suffice to say that due to Hou Yi’s precision and control, whenever she attacks by firing an arrow, parameters become meaningless.


[color=fdc68a][u][b]Noble Phantasm:[/b][/u][/color]
 
[center][color=f7976a][b]Marquis Pacifier of the Sun[/b][/color]
Rank: C
Type: Anti-Sun
Range: -
Maximum number of targets: 1

As the destroyer of the other nine suns, Hou Yi has decided to take it upon herself to befriend [be feared by] the last surviving sun. Due to her honest desire to mend the relationship between her and the last sun, she is completely ignorant of the fact that this sun is completely terrified of her. With this misunderstanding between them, Hou Yi has been under the impression that the relationship between them has been one of friendship, where they both are in contact with one another and act in ways that could benefit the other, whereas the last sun is convinced that this small girl is a horrifying tyrant who bosses it around at all times.

Essentially, this Noble Phantasm is both a line of connection (communication) with the sun, and a status of being befriended [feared] by it. The sun in this sense refers to the divinity, rather than Hou Yi being in contact and having control of the physical sun. Through this shared relationship and contact, Hou Yi is freely able to manage and manipulate the level of influence that the Sun conceptually has in a range of one kilometer, such as intensifying it’s rays or making it retreat from the sky. However, the larger her range of influence, the larger the stain on Hou Yi will be to use it. This also affects such things as blessings or abilities which are based in the sun and daytime, like a certain Knight of the Round’s power which makes him peerless at noon.

[color=ed145b][b]Name:[/b][/color] Kuristine Marie-Louise Bradbury (But you can just call me “Chris!”)
[color=ed145b][b]Gender:[/b][/color] Female
[color=ed145b][b]Age:[/b][/color] 22
[color=ed145b][b]Alignment:[/b][/color] Lawful Good
[color=ed145b][b]Rank:[/b][/color] -[/center]

[color=f6989d][u][b]Objective for the Grail:[/b][/u][/color]

	To prove I’m, like, the best witch of the modern age!

[color=f6989d][u][b]Character Objectives:[/b][/u][/color]

	I need to show-off my strength, of course! Going on month-long trips to Asia is like suuuper in these days! A couple of my gal pals went to Thailand last year and they LOVED it so I figured, why don’t I kill two losers with one burn! [s]Ehh? That’s not how the line goes..? Well, whatever![/s] So I’m here to be super strong and take a teeny tiny vacay~!

[color=f6989d][u][b]Personality: [/b][/u][/color]

	A very spunky and self-driven kind of girl, Chris herself is...a bit different from the rest of her family, electing to move to large cities to learn more about ‘American culture’ and do a bit more ‘self-study.’ Truthfully, she’s exactly what you would expect from a slightly airheaded, young girl who is up to date with social trends and was raised in big city America without being under the guidance of a parental figure to control her behavior.

[color=f6989d][u][b]Biography: [/b][/u][/color]

	Chris comes from a family of witches in America. Once persecuted in witch trials, the Bradbury ancestors were able to hide themselves from the public hunt and protect their lineage to the modern age. They eventually became quite the prominent family, rising in the ranks of magi and also rising as a corporate powerhouse amongst the competitive business world of the United states. The Bradbury name became a household name, as easily recognizable as any brand name as a family who had exorbitant amounts of money and who seemed to have some form of a hand in most businesses throughout the country. Their family has approached upon the common title of ‘New England Old Money.’

	Chris was predestined to be a witch before she was even born due to inherited Karma. As mentioned above, Chris decided to move amongst the major cities of the United States of America, namely cities such as New York, Los Angeles and Miami in the pursuit of ‘self-study’ (see: partying and traveling with friends). Despite being a bit more loose with her self-control than her parents would like to admit, Chris still managed to study in her off-time from socialite events and shopping sprees with her friends; eventually discovering she had a surprising affinity for magecraft considering how little she actually managed to practice it or study further into it. She has a rather lacking background in research, but somehow seems to have managed to stumble her way into learning her basics.

	On a recent trip to New York to visit an old friend of the family, who was also a Magus, Chris learned of quite the intriguing rumor. Her friend had just returned from a eurotrip, visiting her brother who was studying in the Clock Tower. Apparently, her brother had heard from a friend, who studied under someone important, whose sister was involved in a certain study, and-...well, you get the point. Along the grapevine a rumor had found it’s way to Chris’s ears about some sort of magical ‘battle royale’ (as described by her excited friend) that was bound to take place in Japan. Thrilled by such an idea and completely ignorant of what such an event would be, Chris booked a one-way ticket to Japan for the next day, where she found herself aimlessly wandering through the country in search for any further rumors about this supposed war.

[color=f6989d][u][b]Magic Circuit Switch: [/b][/u][/color]

	The sound of a new notification on her phone.

	Fire. 

[color=f6989d][u][b]Magecraft: [/b][/u][/color]

	[color=8493ca][b]General Magecraft:[/b][/color]
		Having been the only thing Chris had taken the time to properly research and study, she could be assumed to be as cognizant and practiced in the practice of the basics as any other average magus.

	[color=8493ca][b]Witchcraft: [/b][/color]
		Given her family’s history, Chris had essentially used tales passed along by the women of the family to lead her towards what research she needed to conduct and who she needed to meet with to learn more about this practice. For American Witchcraft, the belief held is that "all events are interconnected and do not result solely from chance. The mind or individual will, when properly directed is posited to affect the workings of the world."
		While she is not a woman who has studied much (if at all) regarding the multitudes of options available for her use through the practice of witchcraft, Chris does have quite the compiled source over her years of travel. Everywhere she went, everyone she met - Chris managed to wiggle her way into stealing a little bit of information from every interaction, storing all that she had found in a hidden offline source stored in her iPad. Comparable to a grimoire, Chris has thus decided to name this her ”GriPad.”
		A lot of witchcraft in American practice includes the use of blood (be it from the user or an outside source) for their rituals. Another part of the rituals is to pay homage to all four elements, though the only element that will respond is that which the caster has an affinity with. One of Chris' particular areas of specialty is in the reconstitution of her body, namely her blood, into fire.

	[color=8493ca][b]Potions:[/b][/color]
		Stored within her GriPad are a couple of what could be considered more basic and high-yield formulas. However, most of these require an ingredients list that is mostly common except for one or two items which, if not equipped by Chris, could be terribly difficult to come across. Potions also take over 24 hours to complete.

	[color=8493ca][b]Familiar:[/b][/color]
		Well, what would a witch be without a black cat by her side?! “Sinclair.” He was once a butler for the Bradbury family and the man who helped raise Chris. With his life nearing the end, Chris had proposed to him the idea of becoming her familiar when the family’s pet had passed.

[color=f6989d][u][b]Magic Crest: [/b][/u][/color]
	
	With her family dating back to and preceding the Salem Witch Trials, it can be assumed that their crest is at least 450 years old, though how much older than that it may be is lost to history.

[color=f6989d][u][b]Equipment:[/b][/u][/color]

	[color=8493ca][b]Witch's Broom [/b][/color]- a much more technologically advanced piece of equipment than one would imagine. Utilizing modern technology and a crisp check from the Bradbury funds, Chris was able to get her hands on the most updated of brooms.

	[color=8493ca][b]Witch's Ointment[/b][/color] - useful for reducing gravity for ease of flying. Can be stored in the broom.

	[color=8493ca][b]Witch’s Magic Wand[/b][/color] - half for show, half as a focus for Chris when casting magecraft. 

	[color=8493ca][b]Cauldron[/b][/color] - Chris requires a cauldron for creating her potions, and thus must travel with one secured in a reinforced suitcase unless she has somewhere she can store it safely. The cauldron, once filled with the proper ingredients and the ritual prepared, can run on it’s own to create the potions whether Chris is present in the immediate vicinity or not.

	[color=8493ca][b]GriPad[/b][/color] - Chris’s entire source for all information necessary for all of her witchcraft.

	[color=8493ca][b]Black Cat[/b][/color] - Sinclair, or “Sin” for short.

	[color=8493ca][b]Poppets[/b][/color] - Chris has come with a bag full of ten prepared poppets for the use of absorbing any backlash from curses.

	[color=8493ca][b]Portfolio of fake documents[/b][/color] - What, you thought a girl fresh out of college doesn’t have a fake ID or two? Eh? You didn’t think she’d open up a bank account or two linked to those fake names too?

	[color=8493ca][b]Toiletries[/b][/color] - daily use toiletries including shampoo, conditioner, body wash, facial cleanser, moisturizer, lotion, and Chris’s make-up kit.

	[color=8493ca][b]Mundane suitcase[/b][/color] - of course she brought plenty of outfits to be prepared for any kind of event she may need to dress appropriately for!

[color=f6989d][u][b]Exceptional Benefit: [/b][/u][/color]

	[color=8493ca][b]Supply Line [/b][/color]- Through her family’s connections throughout the states, Chris is able to get her hands on just about any magical items she may need...after 1-2 days of first-class shipping.
