[list][*][u][b]Name[/b][/u]: Clarissa Lafaille Delaforte
[*][u][b]Age[/b][/u]: 18
[*][u][b]Gender[/b][/u]: Female
[*][u][b]Appearance[/b][/u]: [url=https://i.pinimg.com/564x/7d/46/0d/7d460dfc9e4037132ff79d948da5e072.jpg]"It has to be cute, or it's no good..."[/url]
[*][u][b]Personality[/b][/u]: A very dangerous person. Her ability as a Magus may be top-class, but... Her mind has been overtaken by the ideas of 'cuteness' and 'cute things,' so she views other individuals as nothing more than pretty dolls to be dressed up and appreciated. Someone's nature or personality is irrelevant; her behavior towards others is entirely based upon their appearance. If an individual is deemed cute, then she will sweetly dote upon them; if they are deemed un-cute or ugly then she will ignore them or even lash out in a sudden rage. Her body language and manner of speaking may make her seem gentle or even vulnerable at times, but this is only her way of trying to appear cute, and not a reflection of her inner personality. No matter what, one should always be wary of her, or one may end up being dressed in all kinds of weird costumes and forced to say embarrassing lines... Truly, she is the absolute worst!
[*][u][b]Skills[/b][/u]:
[u]- Tailor:[/u] She loves clothing, and has studied it in all its various forms. Though the process itself is normally accomplished through magecraft, she possesses the knowledge to recreate almost any form of apparel, from the elegant to the downright adorable. She can even design custom outfits specifically fit to an individual, so long as she knows their proportions.
[u]- Makeover artist:[/u] An expert in the various facets of physical beauty. Whether it's diet, cosmetics, hair styling, hygiene, fashion, or even things like one's posture and gait, she'll always have plenty of suggestions for anyone who wants to look cute.
[u]- Vocal talent:[/u] Her voice has a wide range, and she can sound nearly however she likes with a little effort. She is also an excellent singer. This talent even extends beyond human speech: she can imitate animals such as birds and cats with impressive accuracy.
[*][u][b]Abilities[/b][/u]:
Her magecraft is mainly based around Transmutation and the manipulation of physical matter. Specifically, she can channel her mana through threads and fabrics to take control of them, allowing her to rapidly weave, unravel, or remodel items of clothing. The strength of this control isn't very high (she can cause someone's clothing to constrict around them, but it would not be enough to break their bones), but her precision is excellent, surpassing even talented tailors using modern equipment.
Her true ability, however, is making wearable Mystic Codes. By incorporating certain materials into her creations, she can turn any item of clothing into a magical tool, giving it minor magical properties or even tuning it to resonate with the wearer's magic circuits and respond to the movement of their mana, enhancing their physical attributes and drawing on energy stored within the clothing itself to improve the effects of their magecraft. Her best works (according to Clarissa herself) are her 'transforming' outfits, which look like ordinary clothing but will automatically unravel and restructure themselves into a combat-ready (and extremely cute) ensemble at the wearer's command. Due to her family's long history and extensive specialization, Clarissa can design and create such Codes with unusual speed, though she remains limited by material supplies.
Her own clothing is a particularly powerful variant on this model, possessing several 'forms' that grant her different enhancements. Some of the combat-capable variations put her on par with a Grand-ranked mage in terms of raw power, though without the skill and finesse to match.
[*][u][b]Brief Backstory[/b][/u]: 
Even though Clarissa's family is old and wealthy and should be well-respected among mages, they have a bad reputation floating about them, being called things like 'eccentrics,' 'frivolous aesthetes,' or even 'degenerates that can't even be called human anymore.' Somewhere along the line, this clan's goal had changed from finding the Root to achieving the ultimate beauty of the human form. They are obsessed one and all with things such clothing and style and accessories, and even some degree of body modification. As the heir of this distorted family's Magic Crest, there is no doubt that Clarissa must be one of the worst among them.
Though ostracized for the most part by the Mage's Association, their financial assets and skill in creating Mystic Codes mean they still have many contacts within the Clock Tower, through which they caught wind of the ritual in Japan. Though not directly invited, a certain mage who was supposed to be one of the Red Masters ended up disappearing under suspicious circumstances at the last minute, with Clarissa quite suddenly appearing to claim his spot.
Nobody knows for certain what her wish for the Grail might be, only that it is probably very bad and that the Grail must absolutely be kept away from her.
