[code]CONNECTION TO [PENROSE, CYOA MAGICAL GIRL REALITY PLENUM S:0.4] TERMINATED Oh, of course they still fuckin' blame him for wasting their time. As much as I respect Dr. Nykannis, lighten the hell up already, cause I'm not bringing him back. Hopefully they don't catch onto me going behind their backs to get him out and away from there ASAP, I know they'll try and take matters into their own hands. Maybe in a different timeline he actually managed to do the right thing. But he never does, does he? You call him a failure, a disappointment, pointless. You keep acknowledging him even after he's left. Is it never enough for you? Though I guess I'm being too merciful. Ifrit's mere existence was apparently abhorrent enough according to [REDACTED]. Maybe it's better to put him out of his misery now. People like us are nothing if not expendable. Though during my side gigs I've found something quite impressive. This kid's practically interwoven with the multiverse. So many connections to Reality Plenums both dead and ongoing and even ones that haven't begun yet. Apparently something about a project involving him? There are actually ones where Doc's assumptions are proven wrong. I mean, [REDACTED]'s been through some shit but he's actually happy with the quiet life he's made with his partner after everything. That specific instance alone has opened up a whole new slew of possibilities for him, and a chance to finally break his cycle of being a perpetual failure. He can finally be happy. Well. For now I should record this for reference. For what, hell if I know. But it's better then attempting Damnatio Memoriae at least. - Wagner[/code] [hider=Finnegan Vanhorn] [Center][img]https://i.imgur.com/t3422bp_d.webp?maxwidth=640&shape=thumb&fidelity=medium[/img][/center] [Color=C41E3A]Name:[/color] [i]Finnegan Vanhorn[/i] [Sub][i]Finn, The Sinner of Wrath[/i][/sub] [Color=C41E3A]Age (Magical Boy)[/color]: [i]15[/i] [Color=C41E3A]Age (Before Magical Boy):[/color] [i]???[/i] [Color=C41E3A]Gender:[/color] [i]Male[/i] [Color=C41E3A]Gender (Before Magical Boy):[/color] [i]Male[/i] [Color=C41E3A]Appearance:[/color] [Hider=Untransformed][center][img]https://i.imgur.com/YCLdKzK_d.webp?maxwidth=640&shape=thumb&fidelity=medium[/img][/center] [/hider] [Color=C41E3A]Specialization:[/color] [i]Beast[/i] [Color=C41E3A]Weapon:[/color] [i]Melee: [b]Briar Rose[/b][/i] Finn's trusty cane-sword. It has a subtle rose motif on the sheath and blade. [i]Mystic/Ranged?: [b]Nightmare Ray[/b] (Temp)[/i] An odd boon, Finn's blind eye has been fixed into a weapon against the strained sanity of a certain cyborg girl. [Color=C41E3A]Powers:[/color] [i]Power of Friendship:[/i] Alot of people like him for some reason. If anyone can get even the most obscure allies, it's Finn. [i]Regeneration:[/i] Well, it's not the Immortal perk, but he's still hard to kill. Not only does his mana recharge faster than most, but he can persist through almost any injury. Decapitation of the head? Not so much... [i]Invulnerable (Temp):[/i] A taxing ace up his sleeve, he can become invulnerable to any and every form of harm against him, taken he has enough mana to let this state persist. Still doesn't keep him from getting knocked around... [i]Avatar (Temp):[/i] Another taxing state of magic, Finn is able to enter this state and use every magic specialization. Sure, it wouldn't be as effective as any real deals, but is that any concern? [i]Killing Blow (Temp?):[/i] Quote the Raven. [Color=C41E3A]Perks:[/color] [i]Disguise Artifact:[/i] A matching brooch to his magical boy uniform. Perfect for infiltrations, given they take no more than two hours. [i]Enhanced Transformation:[/i] Ain't nobody got time for drawn out transformation sequences! [i]Big Damn Hero:[/i] One person, one place. If either one is given a token, Finn can be aware of anything that is or will be in danger, and arrive there just in time to sort things out. [i]Masculinity:[/i] He gets to retain his manhood, lucky bastard. [i]Overcity Shift:[/i] How big even is the Overcity? Does it span across different universes?? Questions aside, he's able to head in and out of the Overcity...given he doesn't stray too far and end up in a different place entirely. [i]Flexibility:[/i] Guess those gymnastics classes payed off. [i]Hammerspace Handbag:[/i] Finn mostly uses this to store smaller, mundane weapons like handguns. [i]Ouju-Sama:[/i] He's got a butler too. His name is Laplace. [i]Snowbun:[/i] A pet Snowbun, can be summoned anywhere and anytime! [Color=C41E3A]Patron:[/color] [i]Maura Natalie (Crimson Cradle)[/i] [Color=C41E3A]Patron Benefits:[/color] [i]Cradle Supply[/i] - Got somethin' that might interest ya! Heheh! [Sub][i][b]Paradiso & Inferno[/b] - A pair of twin blades, made from the vengeful, restless spirit of a Monster King. Lightweight, sharp and agile as they are, their wielder can feel the same bloodlust the spirit once had. They gain the [b]warrior[/b] mental mutation so long as they have it equipped.[/i][/sub] [i]Connected[/i] - You know the drill. Magicoms, red halo, I don't need to say it twice. [i]Physical Prowess[/i] - Gotta balance these stats somehow. [i]Encore[/i] - Finn's been around for a long, [i]long[/i] while, ever since Maura kept him from dying. With the current situation in Penrose, he's been called back to help get things back in order. [i]Mana Font (Temp)[/i] - Thanks to the intervention of Dr. Nykannis, Finn is allowed access to the Scientist's power accumulator pocket dimension. [Color=C41E3A]Patron Drawbacks:[/color] [i]Exposed[/i] - Your thoughts aren't safe anymore. [i]Mercy[/i] - Maura. Stop being a mother hen for five minutes. Please. [i]Solo Performance[/i] - He refuses to explain further, but since growing a distain for betrayals and tragedies, Finn prefers to be alone for the most part. Not that he'd complain if anyone approached him, but he won't bother people unless it's needed. [Color=C41E3A]Fighting Style:[/color] Finn tends to take his time durning combat. He likes to make the most of his abilities, from taking some hits with his Regeneration, to borrowing aspects of animals with his Beast spec. Oddly enough, he rarely uses his animals themselves. Save a flock of ravens or crows. He and Oliver tend to work on par with each other, bouncing strategies off each other to eliminate their target easily, or overwhelm them. Finn acts as offense, Oliver acts as support. If paired up with other teammates; separately or otherwise, they both switch to a more supportive role until the situation calls for them to intervene. [Color=C41E3A]Stats (Untransformed):[/color] STR: 3 AGI: 5 VIT: 3 MAG: 3 LCK: 4 [Color=C41E3A]Stats (Transformed):[/color] STR: 11 [sub][i]x4 (Temp)[/i][/sub] AGI: 12 [sub][i]x4 (Temp)[/i][/sub] VIT: 12 [sub][i]x4 (Temp)[/i][/sub] MAG: 13 [sub][i]x4 + 1 (Temp)[/i][/sub] LCK: 11 [sub][i]x4 (Temp)[/i][/sub] [Color=C41E3A]Personality:[/color] At first glance, Finn can come off as intimidating. A clean suit, stoic expression paired with sharp eyes belonging to nothing short of a professional. He's often blunt, but willing to hear others out. Stubborn, with a low tolerance for mindless bullshit. He's actually a pretty chill person, usually outside of work. Due to how long he's been around, Finn acts as an older brother type of friend around those he knows. His Power of Friendship ability does help with this, and he always looks for a compromise. He's also quite a curious person with a thirst for knowledge, especially when it comes to the magical world. If a topic comes up around Finn that catches his interest, you can expect him to be all ears for a while. He's also an easily excitable dork, but he wouldn't admit it outright. [Color=C41E3A]History:[/color] A researcher and investigator in his past life, Finn always had a sixth sense for the paranormal and such. He was always aware of the existance of magic, and those who possess it. However, he got too ambitious dealing with things he shouldn't have. And in the end, it costed him his life. [i]Almost[/i] costed him his life. See, Death had taken notice of him. For some reason she; who he'd soon know as Maura, felt a strange remorse for him. Neither of them knew why, but Maura felt that he didn't deserve that kind of fate. So she used some of her magic to make him into a magical boy. About a month passed as he got used to his newfound powers, when he ran into Maura again. But something seemed off. The poor woman appeared shaken by something. Once she explained what happened between her and her coven over his circumstance, Finn suggested to her about becoming a patron from what he had gathered about being a magical boy, get more manpower if her sisters decided to retaliate. Though he also told her to choose carefully, as some people could take advantage of such power, and Maura herself to some extent. It took awhile, but they did convince several people to become magical girls (and boys, of course). Maura even revived a ghost into a monster boy so they'd have an advantage against a monster attack. This would be Finn's old friend and current partner-in-crime, Oliver. Over all, life carried on as they worked. Conflicts arose; both magical and mundane, changes big and small occured, and relations were made. Though for the far latter, some relations were...not so good. As disorienting as it all was, Finn grew used to it, eventually not bothering with other people asides his teammates. Asides from Oliver, or Maura. [Color=C41E3A]Incantation:[/color] [i]"Memento Mori."[/i] [Color=C41E3A]Additional Info:[/color] - No one really knows how long Finn's been a magical boy, but assuming the remaining Witches have been around for centuries, it's estimated to be around the Victorian Era. - He used to give some of his earned coins to newer recruits under Maura, to give them some support.

Blood and flesh replaced with steam and brass. His plague doctor's mask is merely a nod to his love of birds, and a proper gentleman is never without a suit and top hat. What king or duke would choose to be a cyborg when he could be a contraption from an era that never existed?

His mighty Fists, massive like two Towers of Destruction, laden with the Doom of Mankind's bitter Foes. He watches over us now as Battle joins, and in his Shadow we shall advance upon our Enemies and defeat them.[/i] A weapon that can take on any form its wielder desires. Swords, axes, a gun, giant shrukien, a mop, even more fantastical offerings like a cloud of knives that can attack on their own. Regardless of what form his weapon takes, he always has a cane in his off-hand. GRADE: Challenger KEYWORD: Omni DAMAGE TYPE: Arcane DAMAGE: SSS SPEED: SS SENTINEL: SSS SPECIAL: Omni Slash: Finn's weapons do even more damage to monsters and shatter any enchantments they come across. This includes self buffs. [/indent] [color=C41E3A][b]STYLE:[/b][/color] Immortal Machine [indent] [i]From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of steel. I aspired to the purity of the blessed machine. Your kind cling to your flesh as if it will not decay and fail you. One day the crude biomass you call a temple will wither and you will beg my kind to save you. But I am already saved. For the Machine is Immortal.[/i] Finn is a nigh-immortal machine without equal. His body is as iron-clad as his determination. GRADE: Challenger PHYSICAL: S ARCANE: SSS CHAOS: SS SPECIAL: Immortality: Finn has every benefit associated with being a machine, and none of the weaknesses. He does not need to breathe, circulate blood, eat, or anything a living creature would need to do. His body is as hard as diamond, with the only "weak points" being his joints, which are closer to titanium. An analog computer is capable of detecting when he will get hit by a grievous wound and will overclock him to avoid harm completely. He can overclock himself like this three times a day. [/indent] [color=C41E3A][b]GENRE:[/b][/color] Biohazard [indent] [i]Bio-chauvinism, and on such a small scale, when it comes to the processing of knowledge, is laughable. Give me any savant you care, and I shall match his worth tenfold with even the most basic of Machine Spirits.[/i] Esper magic is far more limited than the stuff that magical girls sling around. It is less versatile, limited. But while bound to these limitations an esper is able to exercise their ingenuity and determination. But the one way Finn's magic isn't limited is in it's power. Finn's magic in this form may be derived from nature, but his pets, his plants, they are sick. A sickness rought on them by Finn's enemies, and they will return the favor. GRADE: Challenger ELEMENT: Nature NOTES: [Poison, Transform], Pull, Heal, Purify, Restrain, Pierce, Damage X, Blink, Summon, Bend, Transplace, Delay, Zone, Full Extend, Homing, Multi-Melody SPECIAL: Ultimate Nullifier. None of Finn's spells can be [b]prevented[/b] from afflicting a target they hit. This includes passive abilities from specials, perks, common sense, etc. The duration of all melodies is doubled and poison is applied at max stacks. Finn's maximum mana is 2000 and can passively recover 400 points every turn just by breathing through his mask. [/indent] [color=C41E3A][b]LEITMOTIF:[/b][/color] Technological Zeitgeist [indent] [i]There is no way in which the fully realized sentience of a machine could not be of benefit to us. As it is, the Machine Spirit is revered, yet in permanent bondage, its full potential shackled by petty fears. I seek to terminate this state of affairs. [/i] Grade: Challenger SPECIAL: Finn's advanced computational algorithms enable him to select a target and become immune to anything they do to him. This includes indirect harm, debuffs, being moved, etc. He may select a new target for this ability as often as he likes. This feature will not protect Finn from direct attacks coming from non-targets that are his enemy, even if they can be considered indirect harm from the target. For the purpose of this feature, summons or allies granted through perks/powers do not count as enemies of Finn.

He's made it to where it was chemical-proof, just in case. Looks a bit old. [color=faed27]Power:[/color] [i]Duplication:[/i] Can't be a true haunting with only one ghost! [color=faed27]Perks:[/color] [i]Dual Weapon:[/i] Oliver's rifle has a bayonet knife attached to it. Nothing that eye-catching. [i]Ally:[/i] As much as I tried to avoid this perk, looks like Finn and Oliver are stuck with each other. [i]Big Backpack:[/i] Oliver carries a satchel, with all the necessities of a usual big backpack. He also uses it to store chemistry books, for his magic. [i]Masculinity:[/i] Him? A girl?? Over his dead body! [i]Blood Magic:[/i] Somehow he can use some of his own vitality to cast spells. Overdoing it won't end well, makes him nauseous. [i]Enhanced Sustenance:[/i] Does he even need to sleep? Well regardless, he's able to persist without eating much or breathing. The latter's a bit weird, concidering his circumstances. [i]Awareness:[/i] Oliver's harder to sneak up on. Better know what you're doing before you try attacking him. [i]True Sight:[/i] Any environmental blinders that affect normal magicals don't work on him and his enhanced sight. [i]Phylactery:[/i] No one else knows, but he stays by Finn for a reason. If he dies, Oliver goes down with him. They [i]can[/i] be separate from each other, so long as they reunite once a year. Maybe it's that mental mutation keeping him from straying too far... [i]Possession:[/i] One of the hallmarks of ghosts. With a bit of willpower, Oliver can take control of another person's body, even if it's for a minute. If the person he's possessing dies, he's supposed to die too. But with the intervention of a phylactery, who knows? [i]Intangibility:[/i] Another of the hallmarks of ghosts. Oliver can phase through objects to travel or avoid attacks. Not too much though, it gets disorientating otherwise. [i]Sixth Sense:[/i] Just cause he's more alive than before, doesn't mean he can't mess with other souls stuck here! With some concentration, he can touch the other spirits, and those astral projecting. And maybe allow them to poke back. Just don't get too touchy. [color=faed27]Patron:[/color] Maura Natalie (Crimson Cradle) [color=faed27]Patron Benefits:[/color] [i]Cradle Supply[/i] - Well, Oliver doesn't have an artifact so... [sub][i][b]Lil' Slugger (Melee/Mystic)[/b] - A strange monochrome baseball bat, salvaged from an abandoned universe equally strange. It's most effective against corrupt enemies, and can even hit hard against the unliving. However over time, it'll start to attract more vicious monsters.[/i][/sub] [i]Connected[/i] - Cause normal telepathy's too easy. [i]???[/i] - ???? [i]Magical Overload[/i] - It took alot to bring him back from the dead. A whole lot. [color=faed27]Patron Drawbacks:[/color] [i]Exposed[/i] - Maura doesn't really like proding her agents for information, but that doesn't mean your thoughts are safe. [i]Mercy[/i] - Genocide is overrated. [i]???[/i] - ???? [i]Monstrous Form[/i] - Something might have gone wrong with his revival. Oliver became a revenant. [color=faed27]Fighting Style:[/color] Oliver's approach to battle is a bit more complex. With his Spirit specialization and Duplication power, he's able to provide alot of back-up for his teammates. Though complicated, his chemical specialization can be used to hinder the target, if not set them on fire. (A usual strategy Oliver uses, that he's aware of.) It's hard to sneak up on him. It's even harder to blind his vision. And of course, he can always possess them. But is it worth the risk? Finn and him tend to work on par with each other, bouncing strategies off each other to eliminate their target easily, or overwhelm them. Finn acts as offense, while Oliver acts as support. If paired up with other teammates; separately or otherwise, they both switch to a more supportive role until the situation calls for them to intervene. [color=faed27]Stats (Disguised):[/color] STR: 3 AGI: 3 VIT: 5 MAG: 3 LCK: 4 [color=faed27]Stats (Undisguised):[/color] STR: 10 AGI: 10 VIT: 12 MAG: 12 LCK: 12 [color=faed27]Personality:[/color] If Finn's the left brain, Oliver is the right. He's more upbeat and laidback than his partner, and alot more mischevious. He can be smug at times, whether it's taunting his enemies or teasing his friends, but he's usually the one to break up any fights between the latter. Oliver can get bored pretty easily, and he's willing to improvise; Much to his dismay of getting an Oddball specialization. Though as much of a little shit as he is, Oliver does know when it isn't the time to joke around. As his Mental Mutation suggests, he's especially protective of his friends, putting them first before him. He does try not to get too protective of them. It'd turn weird. [color=faed27]History:[/color] A some point in Maura's past history as a patron, the town they resided in at the time was attacked. Apparently a Monster King had been driven over the edge, and was admant on killing everyone and everything in sight. Of course Maura's chosen few were among those who decided to fend him off, but he and his cronies proved to be quite the challenge. They had to get back-up. Maura managed to get a couple of people contracted, but most went to other patrons before she could do anything. Then her first recruit, Finn Vanhorn, had an idea. He had an old friend, one Oliver Kyle, who worked with him until his sudden death few years back. (well, few years at that time.) Something Finn wanted to know is "Can a patron forge a contract with the dead?" He and Maura went to Oliver's final resting place to test that theory. They did manage to revive Oliver, but not only did it take alot out of Maura, but he became a monster boy. Not to mention he was still a ghost in a way. But in the end, the Monster King was put down. Maura had to be out of commission for awhile after to regain her strength. What they didn't realize at the time was that to keep Oliver grounded to reality, Finn was made into his Phylactery. Once they caught onto it they made sure not to let anyone else know, and the two decided to stick together, just as they did once in the past. Life went on. And in the now, it seems things have changed again. In response to the trouble brewing in Penrose, the duo were called in to help keep things in check. [s]And definetly not to help Maura get used to running an official organization.[/s] [color=faed27]Monstrous Mutations:[/color] [i]Noncorporeal:[/i] Well, he [i]is[/i] undead. [i]Sentinel:[/i] They've been hurt too much. Why can those jackasses leave scot-free while those he cares about are left scarred and broken? Why should he stand by and do nothing about it while they keep getting hurt? No. He cares too much to let this slide. He'll keep his friends safe. [i]Broken Incarnation:[/i] Of course, there had to be a drawback to his circumstance. If he ends up dead (double dead??), his reincarnation's a bit...wonky. It may take awhile to get him back completely. [i]Second Specialization:[/i] Boo.

The Mistress of the Styx, the Ferryman of Hades, and the Fourth Horseman to name a few.[/i] [color=crimson]Personality:[/color] [i]Formal and noble, Maura can be compared to a knight in personality, despite her history as a witch. Although she can get intimidating at times, she doesn't harm others easily, only when a situation calls for it. She tends to keep an eye on her magical girls when possible, and she keeps a clear head when in combat. Though she does have her moments of naivety.[/i] [color=crimson]History:[/color] [i] Maura's past is vague, only those she knows well enough would know about it. She was once a part of a coven, charged with preserving the balance of the world. As the witch of Death, Maura was to guide the deceased to the afterlife when their time was up. No more, no less. However, one day she had took notice of a peculiar soul. For some reason, she took pity to them. They didn't deserved to die, she thought. She couldn't let that happen. Unfortunately, this didn't sit well with her sisters. She had broke her oath to the coven, she wasn't supposed to meddle with the cycle of Life and Death. Maura was forced to argue against them, but it escalated for the worst. Maura accidentally killed one of her own, the past witch of Dreams. And in her shock, she fled. Maura had to outrun her sisters' attempts to capture or even kill her, and found herself laying low in Penrose. With current events going on, she offically made her base of operations in the now-desolate town, then found herself working with the Crimson Cradle. What she didn't expect was being given the role of leader by Veronica herself. Even if Maura was nervous about it at first, or wondered why she chose her, maybe now she can make a change to Penrose.[/i] [color=crimson]Resources:[/color] [i]Since inheriting the Cradle, Maura's resources have expanded greatly. She's still getting used to her newfound importance, but she's trying her best. A notable difference is that her own coven sisters have offered to step up and help her, acting as second-in-command.[/i] [color=crimson]Additional Info:[/color] [i]- Maura seems to have more advanced magic that bears similarites to normal magical specializations, though no one truely knows the extent of her power. - It's shown that her main three magic specializations are Darkness, Ice, and Spirit. But with Viridian's intervention, Psychic might end up on that list too. - Out of the few witches that now reside in Penrose, the Witch of Life, Rowena, seems to be her only biological sister.[/i] [/hider] [hider=Anaya Hathaway][center][img]https://cdn.awwni.me/1vjka.png[/img][/center][color=mistyrose]Name:[/color] [i]Anaya Hathaway[/i] [color=mistyrose]Age (Magical Girl):[/color] [i]14[/i] [color=mistyrose]Age (Before Magical Girl):[/color] [i]24[/i] [color=mistyrose]Gender:[/color] [i]Female[/i] [color=mistyrose]Gender (Before Magical Girl):[/color] [i]Female[/i] [color=mistyrose]Appearance:[/color] [hider=Untransformed] [Center][img]https://images.anime-pictures.net/1be/1be926864bf213eb81f753417b5424a4.jpg?if=ANIME-PICTURES.NET_-_509534-1505x2125-original-umibouzu+%28niito%29-single-tall+image-blush-short+hair.jpg[/img][/center] [/hider] [color=mistyrose]Specialization:[/color] [i]Spirit and Sound[/i] [color=mistyrose]Weapon:[/color] [i]Ranged: [b]Haunted Gambit[/b][/i] A pair of twin pistols.

[i]Disguise Artifact:[/i] A small ring with a morganite cut into a teardrop shape, Anaya can use the ring to disguise herself as another person for a short time, down to the voice. [i]Soul Jar:[/i] Adding more to her ironic theme of specters, Anaya's soul has been transferred to a small lantern-like soul jar, usually kept around her neck as a necklace. [i]Interdimentional Home:[/i] Self explanatory, Anaya can warp to an apartment building in what seems to be another dimension. She can bring five other people to her apartment, if she wished. [i]Closure:[/i] To forgive is to forget. Once Anaya became a magical girl, everything that proved her past self's existence was erased. [i]Mystic Artifact:[/i] A mysterious antique music box. When Anaya winds it up, she can see what's happening in either the past, present, or future, but only once a week for some reason. [i]Fake Parents:[/i] She finally has parents! [color=mistyrose]Patron:[/color] [i]Beacon[/i] [color=mistyrose]Patron Benefits: [/color] [i]Perfect Life:[/i] A home, friends, and family even. Things Anaya never really had until now. Her friends and family are always protected by Beacon from monster attacks. [i]Shine Spark:[/i] Once the spark was a weak shield to help resist alterations to mind and body, albeit with a bit of willpower. Now it grants complete immunity, as well as a way to counterattack. [i]Mana Font:[/i] Anaya has more mana than the normal magical girl. [color=mistyrose]Patron Drawbacks:[/color] [i]Vow of Courage:[/i] All who work under Beacon are to take a vow so they may preserve their humanity. For her determination to protect others at the cost of her own life, Anaya has taken the vow of courage. [i]Excomunication:[/i] Even if she was once a dark magical girl herself, Anaya cannot cooperate with those she once worked with in darkness. And she cannot kill another beacon girl, or she will be deemed a traitor and to be killed on sight. [color=mistyrose]Fighting Style:[/color] Not having a set style, Anaya relies on speed, distance, strategy, and adaption to fight. [color=mistyrose]Stats (Untransformed):[/color] STR:3 AGI:4 VIT:6 MAG:5 LCK:4 [color=mistyrose]Stats (Transformed):[/color] STR:5 AGI:7 VIT:8 MAG:16 LCK:9 [color=mistyrose]Personality:[/color] Tending to speak as little as possible, Anaya is a soft-spoken introvert who gets to her points quick. Her cute demeanor is a guise, hiding her mischevous nature. Since being purified by a white coin, Anaya has been opening up to others more often, and has been able to focus more as the voices in her head were finally silenced. [color=mistyrose]History:[/color] For as long as she can remember, Anaya had been in the hospital for most of her life, sickly and weak. One night, when she was 24, her patron, Avalon Browen, visted her in hopes of getting a new recruit. Apparently, her mother was a very powerful magical girl, before chosing her father over fighting monsters. Not wanting to stay in the hospital anymore due to cabin fever, she accepted, a coin being placed in her hand before she became a kid again. The first two months were hard, as she had a rough time fighting monsters with what she had, even from her patrons. So she finally used her black coin, and got a second power. But only for a debt, and becoming a dark magical girl. A quick visit to the local magic hotspot, Penrose, led to her and her temporary partner Eliza to revolt with a few others against a monster girl named Justine. But Anaya seemed to dissapear before the castle the battle took place in collapsed. For the most part, she just went back to work with her patrons. Yet a premonition from her music box proved that her time in Penrose wasn't over. So when the call of death reached out to her, she answered, and returned to fight. Just happens that her screw-up after the fight against the Endsinger had led her right into the hands of the Ascendancy. Anaya didn't understand why they would spare someone like her; A corrupted girl working under both Mint [i]and[/i] Horror. But joining Beacon beats having to deal with an angry demon and demented coin broker. It was probably what her mother would have wanted, after all.

She can come off as a bit childish, but those that work with and for her know better than to underestimate. She is a shrewd business woman, and tends to be quite the smooth-talker.[/i] [Color=cc3700]History:[/color] [i]An enigma even to the best of us. Avalon is a known lesser force hellbent on staving off monotony in every which way. There have been a few rumors of who she used to be, like Avalon being the jester to a magic circus, but any time someone tried to confirm it she'd wave it off saying that her past was too boring, and that she doubt anyone would want to hear it. An infamous coin broker, she finds ways to bend around the rules to do whatever she wants. And what she wants to do the most is to sow chaos in Penrose, even if it draws the Mint's ire.[/i] [Color=cc3700]Resources:[/color] [i]The amount of agents she keeps watch over is left unclear, but she has as much resources as any other coin broker.[/i] [Color=cc3700]Additional Info:[/color] [i]- Wields Illusion magic, and likes bladed weapons such as throwing knives.[/i] [/hider] [Hider=About Walpurgis Night] [color=PaleVioletRed]Rowena[/color], Witch of Life [img]https://i.pinimg.com/736x/b0/42/5a/b0425a7eeacde16804025c2c56d6efe0.jpg[/img] [Hider=Summer][img]https://cdn.donmai.us/original/fd/08/__hijiri_byakuren_touhou_drawn_by_oshiaki__fd08e6ceb3e54c38f0c72405a448dbca.png[/img][/hider] [Indent][i]The quiet and kind Witch of Life, and biologically Maura's elder sister.
