Darkest Before Dawn - Vault [hider=I can fold spacetime! (DEAD)] [s][u]Name:[/u] Therese Kuiper AKA Tenebra [u]Age (Magical Girl):[/u] 15 [u]Age (Before Magical Girl):[/u] 12 [u]Gender:[/u] Female [u]Gender (Before Magical Girl):[/u] Girl [u]Body type:[/u] Average [u]Appearance:[/u] [hider=Civilian Guise][img]https://safebooru.org//images/2807/e13a9cb658b8d4767db02318e7f459c19786adf9.png?2923606[/img][/hider] [hider=Transformation (Elaborate Outfit)] [img]https://i.pinimg.com/564x/b0/47/17/b04717067cc5bf358e9c855d80b62549.jpg[/img][/hider] [u]Specialization:[/u] Gravity - Space Time Warping Gifted: Tenebra is notoriously skilled at using her gravity attacks and masterfully employing tidal forces to rend and break opponents. Her minute manipulation of the art is so great she is able to bend and fold space and achieve spacetime warping teleportation, allowing her to send herself or others through holes in the timespace continuum. [u]Weapon:[/u] Eyes of The Cosmos (Ranged). A leftover memento of her first horror patron, these drones hover around Tenebra's shoulders and are capable of launching pure magical attacks. It's often used for suppression and basic attack duties when she's not employing her more taxing techniques. [u]Power:[/u] Barrage: Tenebra is adept at quick and fast changes of gravity within an area that affect several targets at once. She is capable of rattling targets like ragdolls, scattering them however she wishes or coalescing them into a single point to crush them under their own weight. [u]Perks:[/u] [list] [*] Disguise Artifact: Tenebra doesn't use it often, but she is in possesion of an orb artifact in which she can alter her apperance, size and even provide fake ids for her. Lasts up to two hours with a six hour recharge. [*] Healing Artifact: Likewise, she is in possesion of another orb that can heal people and animals, albeit not as efficient as a proper healer. [*]Absolute Direction: Her understanding of spacetime is second to none most of the time. Once an objective is set in her mind, she always knows the way to reach it. It is a must for spacetime warping, as a misstep could strand her forever. [*]Hammerspace Handbag: Likewise, she also is able to create a small fold of space time the size of a medium purse for storing purposes. She usually keeps her artifacts hidden there. Also some jawbreaker candy. [*]Enhanced Outfit: Despite the elaborate nature of the outfit she wears, it emits its own gravitational field that keeps it together. Said outfit protects even against heavy-duty firepower, and is much sturdier than it looks like. [*](Gold Coin)Overcity Shift: Tenebra is also able to shift from the Overcity back and forth. [*](Gold Coin) Gifted-Space Time Warp: Tenebra's understanding of General relativity is at least a PhD. level if not beyond. This makes her be able to warp from point and point to space, essentially knowing how to use her powers for FTL travelling. [/list] [u]Patron:[/u] Umukamui. - After being distraught by the loss of her old comrades and shunned by her old patron, the Star Eater, Therese confused the female form of Umukamui for her own mother, and struck a contract with him to become a magical girl under the Puchuu. [u]Patron Benefits:[/u] [list] [*] Chatterbox: Umukamui loves to brag about his past glory. If you're smart enough, you can glean a sizable amount of info from his ramblings [*] Well Connected: Umu has practically dealt with any kind of faction of the magical world, and has always at least one person that is willing to lend an ear to him. However, that doesn't mean he can sway entire factions, just that they won't rudely slam the door on him, so to speak. [*] Supplier: If it's for the mission and the objectives, you want something, Umu can get it. [*] Mana Font: Umukamui understands that Gravity magic and spacetime warping isn't easy on the mana consumption, so he allows a greater portion of power to seep through Tenebra. [/list] [u]Patron Drawbacks:[/u] [list] [*] Expendable: Umukamui is a callous jerk that does not hesitate to sacrifice his agents for the mission. [*] Big Brother: He is also a control freak, and he will always pop at the most inoportune moments to make observations about things he does not like. [*] Distracted: Umukamui has to juggle between the "too alien to function" Shoggy and the "hit first, ask later" Sakura as magical girls, not to mention to be a liason to several factions, as such the time he can dedicate to Tenebra is not that much. [/list] [u]Fighting Style:[/u] Tenebra is more like a support unit specialized in mobility and ranged harassment. Her usual modus operandi is to lay down suppression fire, and use her powers to warp around and identify weak points or groups that are susceptibles to her much more powerful Gravity Barrage. [u]Stats (Humam):[/u] STR:3 AGI:4 VIT:3 MAG:3 LCK:3 [u]Stats (Transformed):[/u] STR:6 AGI:6 VIT:7 MAG:17 LCK:8 [u]Personality:[/u] Therese is not the most stable girl. Plagued by crippling low social intelligence and anxiety, she's prone to antagonize people socially and speaks in awkward sentences most of the time. Being almost completely introverted, she thinks many things, but says quite few. Sometimes she even displays laconic wit, when she's not making her usual comment disconnected from reality. To those who know her a little better, Therese can be a loyal friend and follower, and surprisingly clever in her thoughts, although not much of a leader. [u]History:[/u] Therese was abandoned by her own mother as an unwanted child with birth problems in a certain institution. Being crippled from the abuse of substances of her own mother, Therese nevertheless consoled herself with her two best friends, Amy and Zophia. The trio would catch the attention of a certain horror named the Star Eater and be granted powers beyond their imagination. This had the side effect of fixing her intellectual and physical ailments, and she gained a sharp insight about abstract mathematics. The experience, however was harrowing and impacted her unbalanced personality even further. Only the soothing company of her fellow girls did manage to keep the insanity in check. Everything changed after a certain riot, a certain naughty event. After being hounded by a magical girl known as Lily Lightning and her partner, Alexander Shields, Tenebra lost both Amy and Zophia in a single fell swoop. Drowned in despair and abandoned by the master she once had, she gladly embraced the idea that her mother had come back (actually a Puchuu in disguise) and asked her to continue her work as magical girl. [u]Incantation:[/u] "Eppur si muove". [u]Additional Info:[/u] Waste not. [u]Magical Coins:[/u] NPC[/s] [/hider] [hr] [hider=She always wanted to have opposable thumbs (NPC)] [u]Name:[/u] Magical Girl Shoggy Nebula [u]Age (Magical Girl):[/u] 11 [u]Age (Before Magical Girl):[/u] Geological [u]Gender:[/u] Female [u]Gender (Before Magical Girl):[/u] Asexual eldritch ooze. [u]Body type:[/u] Overdeveloped. She's quite thicc, specially in the rear. [s](Must be the extra appendages)[/s] [u]Appearance:[/u] [hider=Give me a hug!][img]https://safebooru.org//samples/2285/sample_9ae500804b80e7a407918a9fbfbc0ba45b2fda8a.jpg?2379955[/img][/hider] [hider=Guise to not scare earth-sapients(Humanoid Guise)] [img]https://safebooru.org//images/2307/695c8e4dc9960ae527acf0711a6e16f6fe338b27.png?2401639[/img][/hider] [hider=Shoggy is MADDD!(Monster Form)] [img]https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/80/Shoggoth_by_Nottsuo.jpg/200px-Shoggoth_by_Nottsuo.jpg[/img][/hider] [u]Specialization:[/u] Nebula Magic (Light and Darkness): Befitting the eldritch nature of Shoggy, she chose to pick a rather... unique combination. In addition to being attuned to darkness and ominousness, she chose a second inspiration in the light of the stars, creating what she calls Nebula Magic... In actually it's just cheaps combos of both kinds of attacks, but the magical stars she can shot are rather flashy, and the dark neon glowing shadow like things too. She can also do the shadow jump thing and purification too! Except nobody wants her purification hug... [u]Weapon:[/u] The Tesseract Bone (Mystic). A magical orb made from the remains of an horror, purified and scribbled with awful mind-bending and probably non euclidean signs. She carries it embedded in her chest. She would show it to people, but the sanity rolls are the sanity rolls. It also can give good massages on Puchuu's backs. [u]Power:[/u] 1-Tentacles: They're actually tentacles. Gross, slimy, and with bodyparts than normally don't belong. Shoggy is fairly shortsighted, so these tentacles don't offer additional sensorial input. They're structurally weak and easy to break, but Shoggy can deploy a ton of them. They're also sturdy to make Shoggy emulate her newest hero, Spiderdude. 2- Regeneration: Fearing to lose what was one of the biggest perks of being an all-eating eldritch slime, Shoggy employed a gold coin upon contracting to not lose this power. Suffice to say this also makes the annoyance of human forms being easily killed when decapitated not that bad. Sometimes she regenerates her limbs upside down or her face in the wrong position of her body, but it can't be helped, humans do have a lot of funny appendices. [u]Perks:[/u] [list] [*] Monstrous Metamorphosis: A remnant of what she used to be, and what she will revert into if the pressure is enough. That also makes her mind numbingly stupid, like the bottom feeder she used to be. Still a half decent scare, and her regeneration and tentacles give her more options than a stupid blob of slime could have on its own. [*] Sorcery: The eldritch and the arcane is the only subject Shoggy can boast a decent academic knowledge of it. She laps up eldritch lore and horror-focused magic like a child does an ice cream, bypassing the sanity eroding after effects of trying to summon other unwholesome beings. She thinks it's an awesome party trick, but her patron discouraged to use it for that regard. It does help banishing other horrors and mucking their plans up, however. [*]Enhanced Sustenance: Her alimentation habits and hardiness to survive in oxygen starved environments has not changed since she gained her human form. She does not need to eat very much, and even scraps of enough quality are sufficient food. She finds Marmite a delicacy and likes to spread it on everything. [*]Environmental Sealing: Likewise, extreme thermal environments barely tickle her. Magic is still big ouchie, tho. [*] Absolute direction: She knows how to navigate through non-euclidean space. Can you? [*]Flexibility: She still can warp and jiggle her body in impossible ways, as a side effect of being a monster girl. Don't play Twister with her...no matter how much she insists... Just don't. [/list] [u]Patron:[/u] Umukamui. - She left him for an horror with great bulbous appendages and an opalescent shine of the operculums, but said horror was a jerk who wanted her to spawn a thousand young off her and then eat her. Better the evil you know. Umukamui for his part... is welcome to see an old face, even if it's an old shame. [u]Patron Benefits:[/u] (The benefits for Shoggy are slightly different than Sakura, due to different circumstances of the pact) [list] [*] Chatterbox: Umukamui loves to brag about his past glory. If you're smart enough, you can glean a sizable amount of info from his ramblings [*] Well Connected: Umu has practically dealt with any kind of faction of the magical world, and has always at least one person that is willing to lend an ear to him. However, that doesn't mean he can sway entire factions, just that they won't rudely slam the door on him, so to speak. [*] Supplier: If it's for the mission and the objectives, you want something, Umu can get it. [*] Magical Overload: It requires an absurd amount of magical power to turn an eldritch ooze into a girl. Results...are mixed. [/list] [u]Patron Drawbacks:[/u] [list] [*] Monstrous Form: Duh. [*] Expendable: Umukamui is a callous jerk that does not hesitate to sacrifice his agents for the mission. It's a good thing Shoggy is not that easy to kill. [*] Big Brother: He is also a control freak, and he will always pop at the most inoportune moments to make observations about things he does not like. [/list] [u]Monster Girl Mutations:[/u] [list] [*] Amorphous body: While she has attained humanoid appearance, her inside is still little more than ooze and tentacles, thus making her able to contort and stretch herself in ways reminiscent of chewing gum. Her monster form is even more malleable, often creating and destroying eyes and other body parts in flux. [*] Chaos Engine: Alienation is good for the mind and makes you face new problems and grow in wisdom! She became a girl and that made her more savvy! Other people should be rattled out of their comfort zones! Plus it's sooo fun! [*] Second Specialization: When she received so much power from Umukamui to turn the eldritch into the mundane, the power of Light was lit inside her. Even Umukamui doesn't know how in the hell that kind of freak event happened, but it's kinda cool. [*] Broken Reincarnation: However as a side effect of turning a nearly immortal being in a magical girl, something broke in the process or was flat out hampered by the nonhuman origin. Shoggy can only regenerate when killed at 1/10 the pace of any other magical girl, and always reverts to a tiny, mindless slug-like eldritch monster, who has to ingest matter and creatures until it grows of sufficient size to regain her sentience. [/list] [u]Fighting Style:[/u] Chaotic. Even Shoggy herself doesn't anticipate what her next move will be. She is a scrapper, and tries to probe her adversary for weakness, and then applying her combination of odd powers to bring them down, whether she uses darkness, light or tentacles. [u]Stats (Human Disguise):[/u] STR:4 AGI:4 VIT:4 MAG:4 LCK:3 [u]Stats (Transformed):[/u] STR:7 AGI:7 VIT:9 MAG:11 LCK:4 [u]Stats (Eldritch Ooze):[/u] STR:9 AGI:9 VIT:11 MAG:11 LCK:4 [u]Personality:[/u] Shoggy is a plucky, fairly spirited individual who is always in amazement at the variety of things that surround her. She finds humans fascinating, and likes to befriend them. Too bad that the nuances of social animals like humans are lost on her most of the time. Direct eye contact, invading people's personal spaces, table manners...etc. She is a fairly loyal being to whoever commands her, but she can't resist showing the enlightments of being alienated and throwing people out of their comfort zones. Shoggy also has abandonment issues and feels like she has to make herself needed by the people she is surrounded around. [u]History:[/u] Shoggy was once a lost, little waste feeder servitor of unknown beings who served unspeakable horrors once upon a time. Being forgotted amidst an ominous ruin, the tiny slime with eyes and mouths suffered from isolation, and tried with its tiny brain to understand why. Why was it there. Who had created it. And where were the others. Until it met a not-it. Something different. A fluffy creature. Who was seeking magical contractees on this planet, and had so far met none. It seemed to be ... probing its environment, unsure of what to do. Until it resolved to practice the contract with the tiny ooze in front of it. It would not really work, and it was good practice. Except it did work. The Puchuu was not sure of how did it happen, but nevertheless recovered swiftly and took the newly created Shoggy into his ranks. He had been hardpressed due to an emergency and there was no time to waste. Shoggy was ecstasic. Having skin, eyes, and being able to walk on those appendages named feet! It was a vast new world of colors and sensations, and not that humid, forgotten ruin, where only aeons happened. Shoggy would go on many adventures with Umukamui as her supervisor, but the cracks soon grew wide. Umukamui was able to contract more "Normal" individuals, and poor Shoggy felt...neglect. Eventually, other kinds of calls beckoned to her. Closer to her kind. Horrors. They desired her, who was pretty much the only one who could feel kinship without losing much sanity. So she went there... to felt needed. Sadly said horrors just used her for her goals, and after spawning a thousand young out her, discarded and broke her into pieces, shifting her mishap being into the reincarnation coil. However.. recently, the stars were right... and the blanket of centuries was able to finally heal the sundered core of her, and manifested whole once more... even if she had lost a deal of her powers. [u]Incantation:[/u] "Uh...gurgle...gurgle?" (Monster girls need no incantation). [u]Additional Info:[/u] The first "girl" Umukamui contracted. Not the strongest, but reliable.

It also supposedly hurts more than normal fire. [u]Weapon:[/u] Opera Gloves (Fists): Because there's nothing more satisfying like slapping fools across the face with an enchanted set of gloves. [u]Power:[/u] 1-Power of Friendship: Jimmy's ability to read the situation and make friends in unlikely places. Worth noting he uses it mainly to get new squeezes. 2- Barrage (Gold Coin): Because sometimes you need more Dakka. For multiple opponents. [u]Perks:[/u] [list] [*] Flexibility: Infernalia's new body can bend and contour in many ways, specially when dancing. [*] Incognito: While he's not being busy trying to catch someone's attention, he can blend with the background quite easily. [*]Overcity Shift: The best parties can be found in the overcity. [*]Eternal Style: ...and one needs to be dressed to impress. [*]Masculinity: To be honest, he would rather be a magical girl, but it's not a deal breaker. [/list] [u]Patron:[/u] The Night Beckoner - A succubus who amassed quite a lot of power on her own, and is now a Lesser Force by all standards. Not the brightest bulb of the bunch, she has a petty fixation on twarthing Beacon's plans. [u]Patron Benefits:[/u] [list] [*] Focused: Fire is lust, and lust is fire. The Night Beckoner ensures that flame spells aren't half-assed. [*] Subtle: Infernalia's magic is not as easily noticeable, as an agent of a corrupting influence. [*] Hidden Death: Some demons are like a bad rash, they're never truly gone. [*] Genki Guy: The Night Beckoner allows Infernalia to party non-stop [*] Mystic Might: She also has enhanced his spellcasting ability. [/list] [u]Patron Drawbacks:[/u] [list] [*] Limited: Duh. [*] Alien Mind: Well, not exactly alien, but her mind is a compilation of Rule 34 of the internet. [*] Rival Force (Beacon): Creatures of darkness hate the light. It doesn't help Beacon nearly purged her in several occasions. [*] Clueless: Desire doesn't allow much in the terms of foreplanning or thought at all. [/list] [u]Fighting Style:[/u] Scrapper. Jimmy is not technically brilliant when it comes to head-on attacks so he makes use of his magic and psychological tactics to lower an opponent's defenses and morale before going for the kill. [u]Stats (Normie):[/u] STR:3 AGI:5 VIT:3 MAG:3 LCK:4 [u]Stats (Fabulous):[/u] STR:6 AGI:12 VIT:6 MAG:13 LCK:5 [u]Personality:[/u] A complete hedonist, which seeks to live a life full of pleasures. He nevertheless, can be somewhat somber and street-wise if the situation requires it. He's also not very fond of violence. [u]History:[/u] He wanted to be pretty magical girl. He got his chance when one of them died protecting him, but instead kept being a boy. Close enough. [u]Incantation:[/u] "Love is an illusion, affection but a fancy" [u]Additional Info:[/u] Friend of Reaver. [/hider]
