Physical Description
Eolnana is short even for a girl, so posing as a boy must make her seem particularly height disadvantaged. She stands at five-foot-three, with boys of her age often being five-to-six inches above her and trying to lord over her with the size difference. It doesn’t matter much to Eolnana–the taller they are, the harder and more violently they fall.

Her gray-blue eyes seem devoid of life and her brown hair is messy and uncouth. Her tan, desert-burned skin is probably her most distinct feature away from home. Her mother has told her that men see her as exotic and should be wary around them. Her physique is more athletic than it may appear for a young woman who may as well cite her residence as a library. She’s been doing drills alongside her brother for years and enjoys the art of the sword and spear as much as her twin does. She just likes books more.

Character Conceptualization
Fifteen years ago, Shende Anteskelia bore twins for her husband, the leader of a prominent mercantile dynasty in northern Valefor. They would name them Elon and Eolnana.

The Anteskelia Dynasty was old and “pure” by all accords. They were one of the closest things to nobility you could get in the region and several stories speculated their heritage dated back to the King of Thieves himself. Such a claim has been in contention since pretty much the first time it was uttered by an Anteskelia. It is something Eolnana has heard her entire life, though try as she can she has never seen the proof in the pudding despite inhabiting the great library every time she has found chance to.

The two siblings would grow close together, one heir to the patronage of the many guilds under Anteskelian control and the other a girl who was best suited in trying to sire an influential romance. Envy grew in Eolnana’s heart. She wanted to have the same agency as her brother, to live free and do what she wanted. She wanted to study magic with the best and brightest. She wanted to be seen as independent and recognized as the genius she saw herself as. Her brother barely could read, let alone lead the family! The more time she spent beside him training in the sword the more she resented the idea that she couldn’t be free. One day she began thinking on how to break her chains, how to escape her guardians or convince her parents.

When Elon fell ill the resentment moved inward, questioning how she could hope for such a thing. He had regalled her with all of his ambitions, his plans, his wants, and desires; how he was going to become a knight and how the ink was already dry.

Despite her regret in how she felt about everything, she found herself thinking. Plotting. Was this the way out? It was a serious sickness and his recovery could’ve been long. Craving an out she did the one thing she could. She sought out in a game of fantasy and decided that she would pose as her brother in his ambitions and take them for herself. If he recovered everyone wouldn’t care, the damage would already be done, and ultimately she would’ve proven what exactly she thought of her place in the world.

The Genius of Valefor would spread her wings and everyone would recognize her as one of the greatest knights to exist in the current age!

Barbara Morse was recruited by the Central Intelligence Agency while she was a student at the Georgia Institute of Technology.

A PhD in biology, unfortunately, didn’t really have much use in the intelligence gathering business, but what was useful was how quick Bobbi was in her feet as well as in the head.

She was 22.

Over the next twelve years she became one of the elite spies in the agency, traveling across the world in the best interests of the United States government and generally getting the job done–with efficiency and deadly accuracy. Considering herself a patriot and in the cause, when the cynicism resulting from experience turned its head she tried to keep her feet planted in the ground. The world was changing, and not for the better. She lived through the housing crisis, the recession that resulted from it, the rise of even more terrorist cabals, and reactionary cultural sentiments that seemed to go global.

With the CIA depowered and run through by President Lord and a new agency erected above it, Morse is starting to wonder where Lord’s administration is taking America. Still nursing the effects of The Reach Invasion, she’s in a tough spot.

Physical Description
Often appearing taller than she initially appears, Yoshiba Mizuhana is a spirited young girl who stands at 155 centimeters (around the threshold between 5’0” and 5’1”) with an athletic figure and rather unimpressive “figure” that Yoshiba isn’t entirely thrilled to have pointed out. When not in her designated school uniform (or dream hero attire) Yoshiba is rather plain, as much would not be a surprise since she doesn’t particularly have much for money to waste on frivolous things; as a result she doesn’t have many alternate pairs of clothes. When given the option to have preferences, she likes loose-fitting clothes that allow her to be mobile and isn’t sheepish or prudish in how she’s comes off. If people think her skirt is cut a little too short she doesn’t really pay any mind of it, for example.

Personal History
The daughter of two seafaring heroes who were relatively acclaimed in southern Japan, Yoshiba had a long shadow to overcome before she was even old enough to walk. However, Yoshiba’s challenge to overcome would have nothing to do with their accomplishments as heroes but rather something a lot worse. Yoshiba was effectively raised solely by her mother, Kishiko, following the death of her father after he succumbed to his wounds following a fight with his sworn nemesis. Yoshiba’s childhood thereon would include stories of her father’s valiant deeds and the legacy of his actions as a pro hero. Despite the dangers of her profession, Kishiko never tried to deter Yoshiba’s enthusiastic perception of heroism or by extension, her father—heroism was encouraged and reinforced. However, this would not be the last time the actions of supervillains would influenced Yoshiba’s life.

When Yoshiba was nine years old, supervillains broke into her home in Kagoshima, Japan with the intent of ‘finishing the job’ after her mother had decimated their plan to overtake the region, a grueling plan that had cost them over-a-decade of planning and organization several months prior. Yoshiba doesn’t remember much of details surrounding the battle that leveled her childhood home, but she certainly did not forget what she lost in the aftermath of the battle; her mother died right in front of her as the cloaked villain moved in for the killing blow, and had it not been for the interception of another pro hero, Yoshiba probably would’ve joined her parents in the afterlife right then and there. It would be a thought she would consider a twisted irony after she had been reassigned to an orphanage when the police realized that Yoshiba had no living relatives to speak of and thus no guardianship to fall back on.

It’s been six years since that fateful day and Yoshiba’s drive to become a pro hero has only been reinforced. She intends to show the world that she is ready to be a hero.

Character Arc
Yoshiba is a character I’ve designed as an attempt to play around with the standoffish, smarmy overconfident type of characters. She’s brash, impulsive, loud-mouthed, and smug to pretty much the core of her character, but a lot of that has to do with her insecurities and what she’s been through. She was orphaned because of supervillains and had a pretty rough time in the orphanage that hosted her up until her application to the various academies in Japan. She wants to be great and show the world why supervillains need to be put down swiftly and justly.

Yoshiba is a survivor first and foremost and once you peel back the rigid tsun-esque shell there’s something more to her. Beyond that, there's a lot, but a good amount of her character development relies on who ends up in her classroom, how she interacts with them, how they push her to be better, and where she stands overall. I would like her arrogance and smugness by tempered by someone who becomes her parallel hero, someone she can count on but sardonically put’s down every time she can. A person she can call a rival, even though she will probably most often defer to them as a “sidekick”.

Quirk Description
Known by the name of prehensile hair, Yoshiba’s quirk is far more versatile and dynamic than it seems. Yoshiba’s hair is an extension of herself, serving much like a nerve would rather than a muscle in that it shares and acts as Yoshiba’s consciousness wills it to. This includes the ability to “harden”, “sharpen”, and “grapple” among other functions—it has been likened to tentacles among other things for just that reason, though Yoshiba’s control of her quirk has been… inconsistent at best due to her constantly changing emotions, desires, and at times, loss of focus. This lack of self-control and inner focus serves as the quirk’s principal weakness, though it is not the sole weakness considering Yoshiba’s hair is still her hair and as such is not invulnerable despite it being far more durable than it has any right being.

Character Synopsis
Lianne Silver lived in Anville Town for most of her life.

The sound of moving trains was constant as she sat looking out the window of her apartment bedroom wondering about adventure and what-could-be. Her father had ditched them when she was young, so it was just her and her mother.

When she was twelve, Lianne’s mother happened upon a new job that would take them to Mistralton City. As such Lianne would say goodbye to her friends in the most Lianne way possible: swearing to compete with them in life. Her friends laughed and told her they’d see her when they were the best Pokemon trainers in all of Unova and see who came out on top then. Lianne smiled. She settled in and a year later she was accepted into the marquee Pokemon Academy where she competes to this day as a member of Team Swanna.

“The reckless end up in early graves.”
Personal Dossier

Name
Kohaku Sanae

Age
12

Rank
Academy Student

Origin
Konohagakure

Chakra Nature
Water
Characterization

Physical Description
Standing at four foot five, Sanae is one of the smallest girls in Hatake Toshiro’s classroom. The brown-haired girl is rather frail with a neverending ghastly expression and paleness that would make some think she’s some sort of ghost. Her pinkish-brown irises are always dead with bags often underneath her eyes. As a member of a minor clan she has simple, loose fitting clothes, though she knows they will not be practical attire for field work as a shinobi.

Personality
Text.

Personal History
Text.
Attributes

Special Traits
Eidetic Memory: -

Genius Level Intellect: Whereas Sanae has lived a sickly and fragile life, there has never been a question that Sanae is exceptionally bright—not tactically so, but in the sense of understanding her opponents. Her “reading” of people is extended to her ability to see the inner darkness in people, though she lacks the foresight or tact to refrain from speaking on it. In terms of written tests and general spoken academic evaluations Sanae is one of the finest prospects to strike the academy in some time. Her extended family has often compared her to Hatake Toshiro, her maternal kinsman, though she lacks his “human” element.

Negative Emotions Sense: -

Character Focus & Skillset
Chakra Control: Physically weak and told she was lucky to be alive let alone able to attend the shinobi academy, Sanae’s understanding of the mechanics of chakra are of little issue—though physically utilizing it can be difficult at times. Sanae is one of a small handful of students in her academy class that could walk up trees and across rivers; this is even more remarkable when you consider the fact that she had little-to-no instruction in the matter.
Relationships

Family
TBD

Peers
Hatake Shunpei: Sanae’s relationship with her maternal cousin may be the only organic friendship she has. After Sanae nearly died when she was seven years old, the possibility of her recovering completely was said to be “unlikely”. Shunpei took his own initiative, despite at a young age himself, to walk across the village to the Kohaku Clan compound every morning to make sure she was okay; this was continued when both were accepted into Konohagakure’s Shinobi Academy to the point Shunpei told Sanae that she would never be alone. Despite still coming to terms with herself and the world as she now saw it, the kind of persistent kindness won her over despite her telling Shunpei that it was pointless. The two continue to be great friends, though Sanae wonders if what she feels is longing of friendship or something more romantic. Such feelings would be meaningless in the shadow of the endless void that awaits them, after all.

Inuzuka Kimura: Another academy student Sanae has grown to know over time, Kimura fascinates Sanae to an extent. In part Sanae sees things that are similar to herself and wonders how similar Kimura actually is in comparison. Sanae isn’t sure why Kimura doesn’t try to hide from Sanae more often given Sanae’s particular disposition, but perhaps Sanae accepting Kimura’s ramblings and genuinely listening to them plays a part in their particular relationship. Due to Sanae’s disposition and appearance, Kimura has stated on several occasions that Sanae is “probably a ghost”. Sanae thinks such comments are amusing.

Uchiha Ria: Sanae looks at Ria with a cautious glance, believing the inner darkness is driving her to act out in unpleasant, inappropriate fashions. Unlike some of her fellow classmates, Sanae doesn’t find Ria as problematic or wild, thinking instead that she is “constantly running”. Sanae has on few occasions defended Ria’s actions, though in her own way. Sanae gets the impression that Ria finds her observations uncomfortable much like many other classmates. On more than one occasion she has offered to help her with academics if she needed it, though this was never followed up upon. Sanae is unsure why she feels sympathetic to Ria’s plight, though she does genuinely consider her a friendly acquaintance.

Marina Watercrest was born twenty-four years ago on a cold abhorrent winter night in a royal infirmary on the island of Galma in the Imperial Sea.

Marina’s parents were an unlikely pair, but circumstances had brought them together for a time and Marina’s birth had cemented things where they had been uncertain only months prior. But such happiness was temporary, as such Marina would learn some years later. That aside, Marina had the typical childhood of a girl born into wealth and prestige. Marina’s parents were not forgettable in terms of the grand scheme of things. Marina was a child who was subject to inherit legacies from both sides and she knew it pretty much from the moment she could comprehend thought. After all, her father was not only a member of the emperor’s inner circle but also a powerful fleet admiral who was in control of the entire northern naval forces. Her mother’s legacy wasn’t as immediately recognizable, but the stories of the most famous adventurers that the Southern Sea ever produced was something of an inspiration for Marina when she was very young. Who needed tall tales of heroes she had never met or seen when her mother was standing right in front of her?

Though such idolization changed when on the eighth anniversary of Marina’s birth her mother vanished from her life with little explanation beyond a Southern Sea ornament that was left on Marina’s bed. It would be a birthday that Marina would never forget.

For the rest of her childhood, Marina’s father took the reins of her guardianship completely and utterly. Marina began being forcefully taught how to be the ideal soldier from everything down from posture to physicality. Her education in aether became more rigid and constant, her instruction in etiquette and knowledge became meticulous. Admiral Adonius Terrec IV Watercrest had no room for error. Some children would’ve seen such expectations and attention overwhelming, but Marina rose to the challenge. She didn’t want to lose the only parent she had left. Such determination would continue until she was accepted into the Imperial Fleet Academy for Future Cadets (IFAFC) at the age of twelve.

Upon leaving imperial fleet academy, Marina has thought hard about what she wants to do with her life. Initially her immediate family championed for her to join the imperial naval right out of the academy, but for reasons only known to Marina, she opted to explore the world on her own terms instead which has resulted in a more fufilling career path despite Marina still finding herself unsatisified by all definitions of the word.

Her first escapades started as an independent diver and adventurer, sailing in the Imperial Sea away from the trappings of imperial mandates and expectations. She found something comforting about being the designer of her own destiny–about not being stuck on an imperial cruiser doing menial tasks and grunt work. And for one of the first times in her life people didn’t care who her parents were and what they did. Marina was Marina, not Marina Watercrest or Marina Everdeep. Being a member of a diver’s guild was freeing and without trappings of what legacy she was part of. For a time the only legacy that mattered was her own and there was nobody who could take that away from her. Or at least that was what she thought before her group was stricken with a great calamity that led Marina to leave the Imperial Sea.

It has been one year since Marina resigned from the Imperial Sea's divers guild and has since relocated to another sea. She hopes for a new start as she still continues to search for answers and perhaps other things.

Aether Abilities


Marina’s aether abilities are enhanced by the moon. Specifically, she specializes in the manipulation of the element of water.

Marina learned to tap into her aether abilities when she was but a small child, though she was no prodigal genius. Everything she has achieved has been done with a large quantity of hard work and a small degree of talent. This hard work was supplemented by Marina’s attendance as a student of the Imperial Fleet Academy based in proximity to the imperial capital. Though despite having a well-trained connection to her aether sign, Marina still tends to struggle regarding her focus and nerve. But the moon has blessed the purple-haired young adult nonetheless, enhancing Marina’s abilities as a diver and combatant; she envies those who are talented artificers and aether engineers given that she lacks the patience for such things.

Marina as an aether user can be aptly described as a utility specialist, which in short means that most of Marina’s combat prowess is done practically rather than magically. Aether exists to enhance Marina’s skills as a diver and adventurer, though in a clutch situation she can be pushed to using her more esoteric abilities that are better suited to combat. Some common aspects and techniques she is prone to utilizing include the following:

  • Fysallidakinesis: Marina tends to use Fysallidakinesis in combination with her hydrokinetic barriers. It’s good to be able to breathe underwater, especially if your diving gear isn’t with you or is compromised.

  • Hydrokinetic Barriers: Marina’s primary focus when it comes to her aether abilities is the creation of a “hard” water fields that can be used as shields, deep dive barriers, and containment fields.

  • Pressure Manipulation: Manipulating the water pressure around her can aid Marina when she is surrounded by pirates, raiders, or other sorts of antagonists. Requires focus and can exhaust Marina quickly if she’s not careful.

  • Purification: In certain situations Marina can focus on purifying any form of liquid she comes into contact with. She’s had to use this in certain parts of the ocean where ancient corruption magic has tainted the water to the point it is too dangerous to swim in.

  • Regenerative Water: The most difficult aether technique that Marina knows and probably the most valuable when things look the most dark. Similar to her purification techniques, but allowing to apply a transformative water to another person to reinforce their immune system and healing faculties.

Real ID
Leilani Lee Louris

Heroic Alias
Radiant Guardian

Rank
1

Guild Assessment
To Be Determined

Personality
Once there was a girl who was quiet, dutiful, and scared. A girl who would’ve been quite pleasant to be around, but it has been a long time since someone else has manifested in her place. The rose-haired girl that moves as a hero is still affable but holds an eerie unearned confidence and resolve. Sometimes she says words like a dagger, misdirects her brutal ruthlessness, and refuses to ever be seen as weak again. If you spot it, you might find her scarier than you’d like to admit.

Affiliation
Lee, once a caged bird, sees heroism as a method to live free. It may be naive in a sense given the nature of corporations, but she would rather represent the Maid of Orléans in earnest than be wicked. But, the flames have a way of driving such people into madness…

Summon
The Sword of St. Catherine

Relative Strength
The Sword of St. Catherine was once held in the hands of Frankish heroes Charles Martel and Jeanne d'Arc. It is not as iconic as some other weapons of myth and legend, but among a select few including the people of France it is still remembered well enough. It is due to this that on the manifestation scale it lands at a 7 or 8.

Manifestation
The Sword of St. Catherine is a Frankish longsword. It is neither too large or too small, serving a maid in her time of crisis well. Manifested into Lee’s hands it glows with a pure, golden hue, a beacon of light as if ordained from god.

Standing at a lanky but modest height (for a girl!) of 5’8” with long, picturesque pink hair it appears that every bit of the princess she read about in her family’s library day-in and day-out.

A lot of that is due to the manifestation.

“I was a nobody, I looked like a nobody.” She would remark if you asked her about how she looked prior to her magical awakening. Her body is now athletic and not wiry, her fingers grasping the sword with the confidence of a hundred men instead of barely holding onto an old mop. She does not look like a fighter, though that quickly changes when battle begins.

“What would it take to free you of your shackles?”

She was there, cleaning the library, spent after a month of what seemed like torture. She was so alone, she had no one, and she was so very tired. Suddenly, a vision took her from the world.

A figure asked her those words, cloaked in shadow, as a sword was presented to her. A sword fit for a maid. Something inside her broke as she took the weapon from their hands as it whispered one final phrase before she returned to the world she knew, but not as the girl she was. She still thinks about those words.

“A bird is a predator. Not prey.”

Have you ever seen the movie Cinderella?

That storied fairytale of an abused young woman in service of her ungrateful, selfish family stuck in a cage of their making for what could be forever. She thought that her life would turn out like Cinderella’s, minus the happy ending.

Turns out, you have to create your own happy ending.

The Louris Family were high ranking members of a notable corporation, a wealth that afforded them luxuries and amenities that normal people didn’t have. When Lee’s father met a poor girl from a side of life the family didn’t approve of, it caused a stir. Incidentally, eloping with said girl who was already a few weeks pregnant was also rather unpopular with the patriarch of the family estate. Fights were had. They never went away, and right when there was some light at the end of the tunnel something terrible happened.

A car accident. Her parents mangled. Her guardianship with people who didn’t even see her as human. She was six years old.

And so her life tumbled into despair. Treated like a slave, so began her childhood underneath her grandfather. A life that she would maintain until her awakening fourteen years later.

Why did they choose to become a hero rather than a villain?

That’s kind of the million dollar question, isn’t it? She isn’t keen on sharing her vision or how her manifestation led to a fire that burned the Louris Family Estate to ashes. Why be a hero if you were abused and given the tools to be the opposite?

Being a hero is about being seen. She was caged so long that she had no friends and the life of a villain is so lonely. She may end up there if put on the wrong path, but who says your vision dictates your destiny at the end of the day? You are who you are. And the last maid to bear the sword of St. Catherine was a brave woman who fought for heaven before evil men set her ablaze.

That’s really the fact of the matter.

She is a hero. She must be.
