An archive of whatever Character sheets I've had throughout the years in rough chronological order. I've attempted to preserve these as true to their original format as possible. Names in brackets are characters that I remember having, but are missing. Really a mess, right now. Going to clean it up over time

Shirabe Mirai [+]

La Regles

Outside Contact Information: []

Character Name: Shirabe Mirai
Age: 684 (looks to be around 15-20)
Origin: Japanese Mythology
Species: Yuki-Onna
Gender: Female
Date of Birth: November 22, 1982

Liege: Lone

Height: 5'3" (160 cm)
Weight: 114 (52 kg)

Likes: Ice cream, Popsicles, cold temperatures, water, ice, nighttime, full moons, friendly people, cats, dogs, wolves and foxes.
Dislikes: Anything to do with the heat, temperatures above 24 C (75 F), warm soup, coyotes, snakes, perverts, mean people and.... ovens.
Strengths: Familiar with the Tokyo area and always has a good sense of direction, Mirai is also known to be very friendly and easy to make friends with. Obviously, due to her species, Mirai is also very efficient with colder temperatures and winter survival.
Weaknesses: Never really functioned to well with heat, and is incredibly wrathful when angry. Mirai is also incapable of hurting children and will always sacrifice herself or anything she's doing to save children in danger.
Habits: Usually seen with a Popsicle or ice cream or some kind of cold snack or drink. Mirai is sort of talkative and amiable, but very defensive of people she's close with.

Alignment: Lawful Neutral

Statistic Points: 100

Weapon of Choice: Magic and occasionally conjured weapons (Sharp n' pointy icicles)
Fighting Style: Utilizing a combination of her ice magic and graceful dance-like moves, Mirai is very much focused on agility and evasion, relying on her flexibility, adaptability, power of observation and instinct to get her through fights. Mirai is a master of weaving through attacks (grazing to Touhou fans, ha ha) and making incisive and critical attacks through timing.
Techniques: (If possible, more may be added at a later time)

Diamond Dust Major: [Special Attack/Bleed] Snowflakes fall within a very limited area of up to 25 square meters. The technique can choose to stop here and prove only to cool down the immediate area or it can be further amplified into an actual attack by converting the snowflakes into spear like icicles that impale selective targets.
Icy Veins: [Special Attacl/Freeze] Adaptable move that requires Mirai to either be in contact with a part of the enemy (clothing included) or to breathe directly on the enemy from a close proximity, limitations on breathing based on humidity and surrounding temperature. Mirai is able to control a target's temperature to range from cooling down a target's body temperature to heal a fever to completely freezing them into a block of ice. This move sacrifices a bit of Mirai's own temperature however.
Encroachment: [Special Attack/Freeze] When in proximity to a cool source or when temperatures are around freezing, or even if there is a nearby water source (Mirai would have to use some of her own temperature to use only a water source), Mirai can create a field of Ice where icicles, blocks of ice and even bludgeons and weapons can be created. Slow to form but very effective at making a perfect environment for Mirai, she can even "skate" on her field. Even if she used her own body heat to start the process, Mirai can use Mana to amplify the field then restore her temperature, useful for balancing out her body's demand for cool temperatures.
Voyage into a Cage: [Block] Mirai crystalizes and condenses air in front of her to slow down projectyles and attacks to a slight extent.
Diamond Dust Minor [Attack] Mirai throws icicles or highly condensed beads of ice at enemies like bullets. Can also be used to materialize hand held weapons made of ice.

2010 — A Pretty Weird Year

Elysia Vivarium [+]

Short Description: Elusive warrior mage wielding a massive double bladed scythe that fights the forces of evil with... evil.

Character Sheet

Appearance
Click for Picture!
Head Item: Hair, maybe I should add a ribbon to her hair and that could be it? (Unless you can make the necklace she wears her head item)
Body Item: Demon-woven Blouse, actually rather pleasant and stylish to Lunian girls.
Arm Item: Black Pearl bracelet with skull motif
Leg Item: Demon-woven Multi-Layered Skirt, a favorite style amongst darker Lunian nobles and regular girls alike.
Foot Item: Mary-Janes, may not be the most battle worthy of foot gear, but in a world where women can fight in heels, these are 1 up!
Accessory: Deathbringer's Capelet, the thing around her neck for those that don't know what a capelet is. Isn't it cute? Apparently her demon "father" knew what a girl should wear rather well.

Name: Elysia Vivarium
Age: 24
Height: 5'4"
Profession: Demonologist (INT Based)
History: Born to a family of Lunian upper-class members, she was bound to live a life of luxury and high status. However, a cult of demon worshiping humans stole her as a baby to become a sacrifice for a particularly strong demon. The cult planned to receive the demon's energy as a gift in an attempt to challenge the gods. This plan had backfired for them as the demon instead ate their souls and chose the baby as his human pawn. Raising and nurturing the child within the ruins of the defunct cult, the demon named his chosen child Elysia and granted her steadily increasing portions of his power, aiming to create an ideal follower in the mortal realm to both preach his name and for a hidden agenda.

At the peak of Elysia's training, she was gifted the demon's very own weapon in a form she could wield and given his blessing to go out into the world in his name. It was here that through a series of events that she had learned who her true parents were, that she wasn't a demon herself, and of the demon's intent to overthrow the current Gods similarly to Rigel's goals. Knowing full well that the Gods protected and nurtured all of the races, as well as granted them life, Elysia rejected this ideal and lashed out at the demon, actually beckoning him into the realm of humans and slaying her once beloved father figure.

Despite slaying the demon, Elysia's powers and their evil nature remained and she had nothing but the will to find her true parents and to somehow rid herself of the vile energies she was given to live out a peaceful life. Right before the rebellion and Rigel's betrayal Elysia was close to finding her parents, however, the previously mentioned events have caused her to lose track.

How she fits into the story: Her search for her parents along with her connection to demons, may have chanced her across the path of the adventurers in more than one occasion. She is also attracted to find the adventurers with their ties to royalty and to find some redemption and solace in her demonic existence.

From: Rodesia
Personality: Due to her somewhat scary nature and never truly being raised near humans, Elysia is quiet and a slight bit shy. She is hesitant to talk and very formal and polite when she does talk, but can occasionally let a bit of her upbringing into light and seem incredibly sadistic and cruel. This provides a slight bit of rift in her personality while she strives to do good deeds with only inherently evil skills as a method of executing them. In battle she becomes incredibly enthusiastic about fighting and comes across as even more sadistic.

Weapon: Double-bladed Scythe, if it must be named... Name it "Memoriam"

Pros: Fast melee with wide, long ranged attacks, her Sacrificial Lamb skill can heal allies/herself and weaken enemies. Her skills are devastating and combos are accessible through stuns, mid-air cages and launchers. She is all around pretty powerful from the beginning and her physical skills take little MP.

Cons: She has slow skill cooldowns; her melee has a slow start up and can throw her off balance due to the nature of the scythe. Magic is slow to start, eats up plenty of hp and short ranged. Her skills are all also the exact opposite of defensive as they require some HP in some cases. Her only MP regenerating skill requires several skill points and requires taking the risk of grabbing onto an enemy.

Skills:

Despite being INT based, Elysia is a mainly melee oriented class with a range of skills that are reinforced by magic. Her specialties and combos lie more with the ability to properly time her launchers, stuns and freezes. In general she can play a bit like a Dark Eir with less range but complete emphasis on offense.

Combos
A - Jab with the Scythe, hits enemies in a line
AA - Jab then a rightward swing with the opposite side of the scythe from the jabbing one, pushes enemies rightward, can hit multiple enemies.
AAA - Jab, rightward swing with opposite end and pulls the scythe blade toward herself and through the enemy's torso, pulls enemies directly in front of her toward her.
AAAA - Jab, rightward swing with opposite end, pulls the scythe back then slashes upward, lifts enemies on contact.
AS - Jabs then quickly ducks and rises with her scythe, launching enemy into the air
AAS - Jabs, Rightward Swing and then swings downward with the blade for a downward slash, hard knock down.
S - Draws scythe backwards then slashes
S (Hold) - Draws Scythe backwards slowly and slashes, deals extra damage and causes the opponent to become stunned by sudden blood loss (Or just pain?).
S (pause) A - Draws Scythe backwards, slashes then follows up with a hard knockdown by smacking downward with the scythe.
Dash A - Spin's scythe above her head and slashes with both blades while running, launches enemy but has a tendency to overshoot her past them.
Dash S - Trails Scythe behind her for a heavy slash with one of the blades, also drags the enemy with her and can be comboed into an AS.
Space - Brings the Scythe above her head and smashes downward with the pole part.

Martial
Heavy Slash (11 Point Skill): Heavy version of S move, deals extra damage but throws her off balance. Causes bleeding effect. 11th level has a damage bonus.

Rend (11 Point Skill): Spins the scythe to her sides, slashing the enemy's shoulders multiple times (6 times + 2 after level 11). Ends with a heavy slash, hard knockdown. Can be A cancelled before the heavy slash. Increasing levels increases damage.

Furious Smash (11 Point Skill): Smashes the pole of the scythe into an enemy's face (or chest depending on height...) and then forces them onto the ground, 11th level adds a second smash while they're on the ground. Throws her off balance when she smashes. Can be A cancelled after the first hit, but does very little damage. Increasing Levels increases damage. Enemy will always be stunned after getting up.

Bloodletter (9 Point Skill): Slashes with both blades of the scythe from right and left, slashes downward lightly and then upward to launch the enemy. Increasing levels increases damage and launching height. Her most easy to combo launching skill.

Mirrored Flurry: Elysia begins with a single long slashing motion with her scythe, soon after though many slashes from invisible scythes around where she slashed. Damage increases with level.

Eviscerating Hook (5 Point Skill): Stabs an enemy (Or enemies close to each other) in the side with one end of the blade and drags the enemy toward her slowly then pulls very quickly, ripping the blade out violently. Does massive damage if it hits within a certain range of radius, only drags lightly and does medium damage within too small of a radius. If this isn't possible with the game engine, just have it do massive damage at a certain radius and nothing at all within or outside of that radius. Acceptable radius and damage increase with level. After Level 4, enemies are dragged along with her scythe on the first slash. A cancellable at any time.

Spiral Cut (7 Points): Totally unrelated to the Ragnarok Online Knight skill... AoE spinning attack to damage enemies around her. Damage increases with levels.

Litany of Hatred: Elysia takes a deep breath and yells out a bloodcurdling litany of curses (not cusses :3) at her enemies, stunning them and temporarily making them lose their will to live, causing attacks to do more damage to them. Damage bonus increases with level, stun is a constant one second. This skill has a slow startup and a slow animation, it's also conical as an attack.

Chaos Rising (? Points): Requires Level 3 Martial Prowess. Elysia slams her scythe into the ground, creating a small fissure effect that launches enemies slightly. She follows up by launching the enemy increasingly higher with a upward spiral of slashes with her scythe, lifting enemies around her. When she is high enough press A to violently hook a group of enemies with her scythe and swing them about and fling them away from her. Pressing space in the middle of this will throw the enemies to the ground. Not pressing A in the first place will cause her to land just before the enemies for a combo opportunity.

Macabre Dance (5 point skill): Divides Scythe into two, holding both ends in both hands, increases attack speed and balance and melee power dramatically, sacrificing range and ability to use skills. Level increase increases damage and duration. THIS IS NOT A TRANSFORMATION. Animations are changed accordingly:
A String - Slashes once with each scythe and follows up with two downward chops then a jumping upward slash to launch the enemy.
AS - Slashes once with each scythe then hooks enemies, drawing them toward her.
AAS - Slashes once with each scythe, chops downward with both again then kicks the enemy (Sparta style? What do you call that...) for a hard knockdown.
S String - Slashes diagonally downward with one scythe then upward with the other to launch an enemy, does a combo similar to Asuka's S String afterward.
Space - Elysia curb stomps an enemy.
ASAASpace- Slashes with each scythe, hooks an enemy toward her then pommel smashes the enemy in the face followed by a spinning slash upward like a bladed top to launch the enemy and hooks mid air to violently throw them back down on the ground.

True Bloodletter (Rebirth skill, level 1; 5 Points): Takes a moment to coat her scythe with dark energy, making the scythe blades significantly longer and larger and increasing the range of the original non rebirth Bloodletter. Damage and launching height increased with launching height. Less useful mid-combo due to the startup animation.

True Furious Smash (Rebirth skill, level 30; 5 Points) : Elysia swings downward with a spinning slash, hooking her scythe onto an enemy and dragging them high into the air before smashing them into the ground. She follows this up by smashing the pole of her scythe down on the ground, causing a fissure effect and launching enemies around her and doing down damage on the enemies originally caught by this attack. Damage increases with level.

Demonology

Doombolt: Elysia's starting skill. Elysia points her off-hand palm to her enemy and releases orbs of chaotic energy that travel in an erratic pattern, the orbs explode violently upon contact with enemies or after traveling a certain distance. Starts out with only three bolts at level 1 and grows by 1 bolt every two levels to a maximum of 6 bolts. Damage is constant throughout levels, blast radius does increase.

Demonic Seal (10 Point Skill): Smashes scythe into the ground (this does no damage) and creates a seal around herself, enemies within this seal have their HP slowly drained and have a decrease in movement speed. After Level 7 the skill will also drain a (very minor amount) of MP. HP drain and Movement Reduction increases with level. Radius and duration is constant and Elysia is immobile throughout the skill duration.

Beckoning Call (5 Point Skill): Elysia relaxes her stance and makes a motion as if to beckon an enemy toward her, a small circle is formed in front of her after a small HP reduction, and enemies within the circle temporarily lose control and walk toward her. Radius of the circle increases with level, along with HP drain. Always has a slow start up and is easy to cancel... But a good trap.

Hellfire Pit (7 Point Skill): Smashes scythe into ground and an aura of brilliant red energy pools beneath her. After a short delay, the pool explodes violently, launching and damaging the enemies. Can be canceled out of after level 4. Level 7 also causes damage over time more effective than poison. Other skill levels just increase damage.

Tormenting Cuts (11 Point Skill): Temporarily unsummons her scythe and offers a sacrifice of HP to the demons then forms two blades of darkness similar to Katars to slash enemies multiple times (4 times +1 per skill level). Cuts dealt by this skill deal damage over time. Increasing levels increases damage in the form of added cuts, can always be canceled out of during any of the hits. Very short range (arms length), but similar to Tia's Thousand Leaf Split in terms of speed and without the A mashing, press S at the end for an uppercut, launches enemy. Scythe takes .75 seconds to materialize back after the skill is used unless the uppercut button is pressed.

Blood Spike (11 Point Skill): Summons a single very large red spike that rises from the ground and launches an enemy after a small HP sacrifice. Very, very fast skill. Increased levels increases damage. Level 4 includes miniature spikes will also form around her, causing a light launch and minor damage to make the skill more useful in staging. Level 7 and above will actually cause the larger spike to impale (Not graphically) the enemy and freeze them mid air. Level 11 will give a damage bonus.

Damning Respite: With a wave of her hand and a muttering of words Elysia sends out a shockwave of energy followed by a trail of lesser demonic spirits who latch onto enemies, these demons restrict movement speed and scratch at their unfortunate possessors. Damage increases with level with an extra boost after level 7.

Sacrificial Lamb (11 Points): Requires Level 3 Blood Vivarium. Elysia slashes in a wide arc with her scythe for normal damage, however, enemies killed by this skill will violently react and release a plume of darkness for a miniature AoE. Explosion damage increases with level. Extra damage added after level 7. Level 11 increases explosion blast radius.

Lifeblood Drain (5 Point Level 60 Skill): Grabs enemy, immobilizing them and Elysia, drains enemy HP and restores a percent to her. On enemies that can't be immobilized such as bosses, she will be dragged with the enemy if the skill makes contact. Increasing levels increases that percent, level 5 actually lets out a small seal around her and heals allies for a small percent and fake resurrect. Slow to start and short ranged, but wonderful in beginning combos as the enemy is stunned after the skill end for .75 seconds. Can grab in mid-air, but can not be comboed off of and instead leaves the enemy in a stunned status after they get up, lasting only a quarter of a second.

Doom Fist: Elysia takes a moment to form a demonic circle high in the air above her that begins to spin as a gigantic demon fist covered in blades crushes anything below it. Ironically, despite the fact that it's a crushing move, it will launch things in a small area around it due to the shockwave around the fist. Speed and damage increases with level.

Demonic Doppelganger: Requires Level 5 Blood Vivarium. After a small HP sacrifice Elysia flickers for a moment then splits herself into her real body and a copy using a malevolent spirit. The two are separated in a random direction to confuse enemies, and the copy has a fourth of Elysia's HP and will occasionally use a single A attack for her base attack damage. Increasing levels increases duration of the copy, which lasts at level 1 a total of 5 seconds or as long as the copy has HP.

Aeternum Damnatio (Level 85 1 point Ultimate) - Starts off similarly to Rend but without the heavy slash at the end, eviscerating enemies in a flurry of attacks as Elysia suddenly stops and unsummons (unequips?) her scythe, making a sweeping motion with her off hand and clenching her fist. A daemonic seal forms itself on the ground, glowing red as chains come forth from every side of the circle, tethering enemies and restricting movement entirely. Each and every enemy trapped within the seal is brought close to the ground by the chains then constantly berated by a rising whirlwind of blades of darkness. Near the end of the move the enemies are launched high into the air and violently smashed into the ground covered in darkness spikes for a final burst of damage.

True Bloody Spike (Rebirth Skill, Level 1; 7 Points): Rather than a single spike, Elysia unleashes a huge amount of spikes jutting out in various directions, launching enemies and consuming a small bit more HP. Level 7 once again sees a mid-air freeze effect.

True Hellfire Pit (Rebirth Skill, Level 45; 5 Points): Once again Elysia smashes her scythe into the ground, forming a pool of brilliant red energy. However the energy seeps into the ground and turns into a black portal with eyes peering out of it from within the pit. Suddenly the eyes close and a plume of flame rises from the pit to launch and consume enemies. Huge damage increase but also a much slower animation. Easy to avoid but has invulnerability frames.

Bless
Mark of Bloodletting (7 Point): Requires Level 1 Martial Prowess. Smothers the edge of her scythe blades with a small amount of darkness energy, which hardens to crystal hard and increases slashing power (damage in general). Duration increases with level.
Mark of Sorcery (7 Point): Requires Level 1 Blood Vivarium. Lose MP over-time for increased magical attack power. MP loss and attack increase gain with level.
Health Conversion (7 Point): Sacrifices HP over time for MP over time, increased levels increases ratio of MP to HP, works by percent rather than points.
Bloody Menace (5 Points): Emits a faint red aura, provoking some mobs to always attack her, level increase increases effectiveness.
Fatal Strikes (3 Point): Makes her attacks have a very small chance to make an enemy stunned. 1% chance per point.
Unrelenting Bloodlust (? point): Character loses control of her sanity temporarily, her attacks are wild and relentless. Her MP drain on magic skills is increased, the MP cost is decreased on physical skills. Her damage increases significantly and defense decreases significantly. Each attack she makes in this state of mind actually hurts herself a small increment due to the wild nature. No custom animations for this, just one crazy lady. Level increase increases damage to enemies and herself.

PERSONALITY

"Once a soldier had asked me, 'How do you feel about orphaning hundreds of children over the course of your life?' I simply could not answer the question and ran away... There are times where I do feel weak and human... Times I regret what I've become. But then I remember, I'm fighting a society of monsters ruling the weak, and that they must die."

• To all but Feia, Aira has a rather anti-social and dark personality, seemingly unapproachable by normal soldiers and civilians at first glance. She exudes an aura of strength and power, but also seems to garner quite a bit of respect with it. It seems she's a multi-dimensional person upon closer look; on one side she is tough on her allied soldiers, always critisizing them and chastizing any lack of discipline. It seems she has an avid dislike of weak things yet always moves to protect anyone weaker than her. She is quiet, and sometimes even brooding, but she will not hesitate to say things that people may or may not like in the bluntest possible way. Aira is known as a murderer in Zenthia, a demon in nearly a literal sense, but in Loriace she is known to be at least somewhat civil.
Her fighting style is ruthless, merciless and messy, Aira knows no extent to the gore she creates from bodies, her swordplay elegant and almost like some form of bloody dance mixed in with a show of brute force. She is unaffected by threats, most psychological warfare and much of anything.
In the end, Aira's strongest emotion is her absolute hatred for Zenthia and her unending love for Loriace. She's tough on soldiers simply because she wants them to survive, and she's distanced for various reasons.

OTHER
• Her soft spot for children is very... very obvious when it comes down to it. She has an absolute weakness for them and has a hard time harming them or watching harm come to them as they remind her of her own childhood. This is the only time she will ever resist destroying Zenthia. Interestingly enough she doesn't care about orphaning children.... usually.
• She's anti-social not because she's a stoic, but rather because she doesn't want to make connections, being afraid they'll either die on her or hate her for what she is.
• In the end, she simply wants peace for Loriace and the end of Zenthia. Despite her tremendous skill and effectiveness on the battlefield, she hates war and wishes for its end.
• There are times where she doubts her seemingly endless hatred for Zenthia, but it's usually unwavering
• She ranges from Tsundere to Kuudere (Kuudere is silent and "cool" then dere)
• She doesn't know it, nor would she care at this point, but her mother was actually from Zenthia. Her father was from Loriace.
• In general, she does her best to hide her love for cats and children, she feels it makes the troops' image of her a slight bit softer and would prefer for that not to be so. She laxes up around closer friends, if she ever gets any.
SPECIAL • SKILLS
• Dual & Single Dagger Mastery, perhaps to the point that one could call her a goddess of the daggers
• Master of Terror Tactics & Battlefield Showmanship
• ...Babysitter... As much as she hates to admit it to some people, but she loooovvesss children. (not in that way...)

BACKGROUND • INFORMATION

In Aldrien, there are children born in such a place that family values, morals and peaceful life are completely unheard of. Such is the central border of Loriace and Zenthia, where the very first bombs and pittings of bloodshed were seen in the war. Aira's parents were star-crossed lovers, having come from the opposing countries. They were both soldiers and they were both supposed to be sworn enemies. Instead, they fell in love and did their best to meet in the middle of the two countries, eventually the mother, a Zenthian, was pregnant with a child.

Aira's mother left the military life to nurture the child, never telling that the father was from Loriace. Alone, she raised the child until she recieved a letter from the father. They were both going to live together, away from the fighting, in Loriace where citizens were not required to be in the military. Eight months into the pregnancy, the mother and father met in the middle of the two countries in a border city, ready to finally lead a life of peace with their love. Their meeting proved to be a mistake as Zenthia attacked the city that was once theirs, attempting to take it back from Loriace. Artillery hailed upon the city, its garrison inequipped as the troops had moved to capture a city further into the front. The couple fell to the barrage and the mother was killed, her unborn child still alive within her womb.

It was in this theatre of war that Aira was born, her father, still alive and well, having witnessed the scene of his love's demise, unburried the body from the rubble that crushed it. As he cried over the mangled body resting within his arms, he realized the child inside was still alive, told by an unknown force of destiny. Bearing in mind that the child was most likely suffocating in the body, and that it was a month too young, he had little hope for its survival. Even then, he had still unsheathed his knife and ripped into the womb, tearing into the flesh and plucking the premature child out. And by destiny's fickle hand did the baby girl live.

Escaping from that place, leaving the military and moving away to a place not much better than where his love had died, the man fathered the baby girl, soon realizing she was not only healthy, but stronger than most. She learned quickly, and her progress was as fast as the wind, where her name was derived from: "Aira" meaning "of the Wind". Aira's father did the best he could to cope, still a member of the militia and still living in a border town, he knew that the harsh realities of the war and of the world were already dawning upon Aira and that one day, if he did not move away from that place, they may as well have forfieted their lives.

So close to the theatre of war, Aira and her father lived a miraculous four years of peace... That was until a month after Aira's first birthday, again, an insignifigant pockmarked town was sieged when its defensive army was mostly depleted and away on other missions. The Zenthians struck mercillesly and quickly, killing all they could to take the miserable piece of land back into its clutches, to subjugate and opress the weak in support of the social elite. Only an hour after the first shell hit the town, it had been captured, its buildings on fire and most of its citizens dead or dying.

Amongst the dead and dying was Aira and her father. The father died to protect his child, dead Zenthian footsoldiers lay strewn about what remained of their home and in the father's hand was a fully loaded handgun. Aira sobbed over her fathers corpse as all she had known until this point burned to ashes. It was here that a Zenthian soldier had heard the child crying and entered the home with intent to kill.

Seeing the child crying he yelled for her attention, wishing to see her face before she died. Aira turned to face the man that may have been her demise, backing away as the man moved forward. Her eyes darted about, terror overwhelming her tiny frame until she settled upon a single object, her father's handgun....

In a flash she took the pistol and aimed, firing at the soldier and emptying the entire magazine into the man, killing him and leaving nothing but a blubbering mess of torn flesh and herself with a broken wrist and a single flesh wound to the arm. Without any other will to defend herself and still not wishing to move away from her father's corpse, things looked dim for the child as she lay down on the ground and resigned to her fate.

As if even the world rejected her death, the town's defense army returned, having recieved a distress call. They delivered swift justice in their counter attack and drove away the Zenthian invaders. Aira and her dead father were discovered and soon she was taken by the soldiers to live elsewhere. However, the child was unsatisfied and frustrated, she found herself filled with a new emotion, different and far from the resignation that had filled her before her discovery. She had found hatred.

Knowing that she was going to be taken away to some inner-city, sheltered and away from the front where she would be unable to exact her vengeance upon the kingdom she so hated until she was "of age" the child broke free of the soldiers' watch and ran as fast as she could and into the wilderness, her childish devotion to killing those that took her father and town away from her burning within her heart. It was in the battlefield that Aira raised herself, learning quicker than ever how to kill and how to survive, ignoring the childhood that begged her to run back to peaceful society. The seemingly frail girl had turned herself into a monster, and by the time that she was able to enlist, her exploits on the battlefield were famous to both sides of the war.

Aira had nurtured her skills, and she had grown an affinity for her kingdom, fighting not only for her father's vengeance, but for all of the kingdom, for peace and for a better future for her allegiance. Most especially, she fought to give children a chance to be raised in a time that they weren't afraid that shells would fall. Famous as she was, the leader of Loriace herself approached Aira and personally invited her to join her party.

Now, in the present, Aira is still a soldier of the front lines, and remains a demonic foe to face.

PERSONAL • INVENTORY

Servant Rider [+]

Servant Class: Rider*
True Name: Uesugi Kenshin (Sengoku Rance ver.)
Alignment: Neutral Good

Stats
Strength: B
Mana: C
Endurance: B
Agility: A
N. Phantasm: EX
Luck: C

Appearance:

I kid you not.
Extra Picture 1 Extra Picture 2
At least the Extra Pictures don't have her funny hat, it's optional.

History/Legend: In history, Uesugi Kenshin was one of the most prevalent and influential lords of the Sengoku Era of Japan. He was chiefly remembered for prowess on the battlefield, and as an extremely skillful administrator, his rule seeing a marked rise in the standard of living for his vassals. He was famed for his honorable conduct, military expertise, a long-standing rivalry with Takeda Shingen, numerous campaigns to restore order in the Kanto region as the Kanto Kanrei, and his belief in the Buddhist god of war --Bishamonten. In fact, many of his followers and others believed him the Avatar of Bishamonten, calling Kenshin "God of War" (basically ripped from Wikipedia). In modern legend, and as a growing theory, some believe that Kenshin was a woman masquerading as a man, supported by the fact that "he" never married, and instead opted to adopt four sons to succeed him, along with a few other pieces of historical fact.

Furthermore, an alteration has been made to the historical Uesugi Kenshin's myth and lore, finding basis in the video game Sengoku Rance. In it, Kenshin is detailed to be the absolute strongest swordsman in all of JAPAN (an Alternate Dimension Japan to our current one), and to have eventually gained the position of Emperor (Empress) of JAPAN, meaning by Mandate of Heaven and by decree of Amaterasu, Kenshin is a divine being. Being a rather popular game worldwide (despite it being an eroge), the traits and alterations to the legend have more power and further the conceptualization of skills the real Kenshin never had.

Personality: Strong willed and stubborn, Kenshin acts and speaks with a calm sort of authority that commands respect and adoration. Being a Japanese warlord and eventually Emperor, she carries with herself, at least most of the time, a stately manner and grace befitting someone of her status, and also brings along a sort of love for war and battles token to the Japanese people of the era, setting itself comfortably alongside a love for art and music. Firm and determined, destructive yet merciful, Kenshin is an undoubtedly powerful and absurdly brutal force to be reckoned with as an opponent, contrasted with a feminine charm that, unlike many female warriors, she doesn't quite mind displaying, acting feminine if the situation allows and encouraging lady-like behavior. On a personal basis, Kenshin is generally friendly company, acting rather approachable when not in battle. Kenshin is a huge eater, and can be rather cranky without proper nutrition. She has the capacity to be extremely loyal to friends, comrades and lovers.

Class Skills:
Riding: A+
Creatures on the level of Phantasmal Beast and Divine Beast can be used as mounts. However, that does not apply to members of the Dragon Kind.

Personal Skills:
Bravery: B
The ability to negate mental interference such as pressure, confusion and fascination. Bonus effect of increasing melee damage.

Disengage: C
Bonus effect of returning battle conditions to what they were at the beginning of the match.

Divinity: B (Would be higher if summoned as a Saber Class Servant)
Kenshin has been said to be an Avatar of Bishamonten, and is similarly called the God/Goddess of War. In the course of her history she also became the Emperor(Empress) of Japan, akin to becoming a god due to the Mandate of Heaven and recognized by the Goddess of the Sun Amaterasu. This is also pretty much a requirement in order to maintain ownership of a Kirin.

Eternal Arms Mastership: A+
Mastership of combat arts has reached the point of being said to be unrivaled in one's era. By complete merging of mind, body and technique, it is possible to make use of full fighting skills even when under the influence of any sort of mental hindrance.

Eye of the Mind (True): B
Capable of calm analysis of battle conditions even when in danger and deduce an appropriate course of action after considering all possibilities to escape from a predicament. So long there is even a 1% chance of a comeback, this ability greatly improves the chances of winning.

Judgement of the Righteous: A++
A long history of divinity, righteousness and virtues makes one a natural enemy of evil. Stats increase proportionally against enemies sliding further from a heroic status to an anti-heroic status. Wielder gains a one grade increase to all parameters and to all active noble phantasms for each degree lower an enemy's alignment is, in the case of an "A" parameter, the wielder gets a +.

Knowledge of Respect and Harmony: A
Prevents decrease in the effectiveness of a technique, regardless how many times it is used against the same opponent.

Noble Phantasms:
Goddess of War (Anti-Unit): A++
The ability to use, with proficiency, absolutely anything created to be used as a weapon. This includes conceptual weapons. In effect, this turns anything meant to be, or can be used as a weapon into a Noble Phantasm, reinforcing their attributes to a D rank Noble Phantasm and occasionally granting a small divine attribute to the weapon, depending on its origin (Essentially the same as Berserker's Knight of Honor skill from Fate/Zero). Weapons gained with this ability suddenly become an implied specialization for Kenshin, as if she'd used the weapon her entire life, passively granting an A+ Eternal Arms Mastership on weapons as long as she's using them. Noble Phantasms higher than a D rank gained through this method maintain their original statistics and efficiencies, meaning a Noble Phantasm can be stolen from their original user and used with just the same precision and skill. Kenshin must have had maintained contact with the weapons to "reinforce" them with this Noble Phantasm, it takes a few seconds to understand the weapons and let her divinity spread through it, and the effect leaves a short while after she lets go of the weapon, long enough that they can be thrown or shot and be lethal to an enemy servant. Weapons under this effect have a sort of signature glow, much akin to Kenshin's Aura of the Emperor Noble Phantasm.

Weight of Bishamonten (Support): A
As an Avatar of Bishamonten alongside being a devout follower of the diety, Kenshin is passively blessed by the buddha. Due to the blessing, all objects or entities within a city block radius of Kenshin that have an intent to do harm to her, her master or her vassals are burdened with a heavy weight, putting restrictions on their endurance and causing servants to drain more prana from their masters in order to move normally. The weight put on the affected decreases proportinally to both intent to do harm and magical resistance. At a rank of "A" in magical resistance, the weight is completely lifted, and at a rank of "B", the weight is comparable of wearing 10 pound leg weights to a marathon and finishing the marathon. Put short, servants and masters will have to pass endurance and magic resistance checks just to enter battle with Kenshin.

Heavenly Gift: Kirin (Anti-Army): A
A divine beast of nearly unprecedented power, Kirin are vastly noble beings considered by the Japanese people to be higher in order than dragons or phoenix. They are servants of Asian gods and celestials, capable of tremendous feats such as control over lightning, breathing fire, and healing near incurable diseases and mortal wounds. The Kirin serve none but those equivalent to a god, and as such are considered a pet worthy of a divine being such as Japan's Emperor. Kirin, however, are not without their weaknesses, they shy away and even feel sick upon the sight of blood, which is partially the reason their attacks will burn an enemy rather than cut them, and Kirin are sentient, with a mind of their own and a tremendous sense of justice. A Kirin would never attack someone of a good alignment, but would not hesitate to punish an act of injustice.

More on Kirin Here. For an example of a Kirin in media, refer to the Kirin of Juuni Kokki/The Twelve Kingdoms, Taiki is a good example.

Aura of the Emperor (Support): B-
Being the Emperor of JAPAN, Kenshin is able to project an overwhelming force of charisma, visible as a bright sort of light to those affected. It gives her the ability to forcibly vassalize any individual with too low a magic resistance and/or willpower. The effect is permanent until she either releases the affected from service or an ability is used to lift the curse of servitude. In this case, people would have to pass checks just to successfuly walk into battle with her, or they risk falling at her feet at her mercy. Has a relatively small field of effect these days, mostly since the origin of this skill is honestly just from the video game, it has the range of roughly half of a New York block (30 meters). Exceptions to this are summoned beings or armies like those of a reality marble, as they are literally a part of another hero's personal reality.

In addition to its use as an aura, the Aura of the Emperor can be focused to a much greater potency on one person, seeming similar to a Mystic Eyes skill where gazing into Kenshin's eyes will hypnotize the target. For both this usage and for the normal usage of the Aura, any magical resistance will already give some degree of immunity, but masters are still far more susceptible to being affected by this Noble Phantasm

Emperor's Sanctum: EX
As the Emperor of JAPAN, all of the Land of the Rising sun counts as Kenshin's property. However, the truest and most associated area under the Emperor's control is the Japanese Imperial Palace, and by extension, the Atsuta Shrine and Grand Shrine of Ise, which all hold the Three Imperial Regalia (The Sword Kusanagi, mirror Yata no Kagami and Grand Magatama Yasakani no Magatama). So close to the Emperor's image are these three lands and three items, the latter of which are proof to her Divinity, that they have been imprinted in her very soul, becoming the unnatural phenomenon known as a Reality Marble. In it, the palace and the two shrines are materialized within a single land, their respective divine and youkai guardians inhabiting each, along with the personal guard of the Emperor, the shrine monks and minor deities, and powerful Onmyouji; all of them are like miniature heroic spirits in their own right, and as an army can overwhelm even more powerful Heroic Spirits (most especially those of an evil inclinement). More importantly, the three previously mentioned items are available to Kenshin in their original forms. Being Kenshin's true noble phantasm, there is basically nowhere in the Reality Marble that isn't hostile to intruders; every wall may be false and hiding behind it a squad of fanatically devoted, powerful soldiers and Inukami, each corner may hide a hidden ninja, and traps are lay about every place that can be touched or stepped on by those unwary of their presence. The most worrisome thing in the Reality Marble, however, is Kenshin herself, equipped with her sword, mirror and magatama, she is nearly invincible for the long 20 minutes that the Reality Marble can be sustained. Certain conditions must be met and time must be consumed in order to release this noble phantasm.

*As a sort of rule of thumb, almost all servants who qualify for Saber also qualify for Rider, as having a mastery of riding is basically required for most, if not all, warriors of the sword. Either way, status such as Strength and Endurance are lowered in favor of Agility when a Rider versus a Saber. Being one of the three Knight classes (Saber, Lancer, Rider) also pretty much justifies her high stats too.

Katya Nikolayev [+]

[bARGH! 500 INTERNAL SERVER ERROR![/b] This profile may still be edited <3

Edit - Added some speed statistics to her thrusters/boosters; added her ID code for when she was still a Tungsten Knight test subject; added details to appearance

[SIZE="5"][FONT="Impact"]Character:[/FONT][/SIZE]
Name: Katya Nikolayev ("Number": TKF-F101-52-2173)
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Appearance:

Hair is actually a light blonde, eyes really are that kind of crystalline blue. She has a barcode tattooed to her arm and the back of her neck that reads her alphanumeric ID as a test subject. When not in armor for use inside of her ACS, she can be found in either a jumpsuit of sorts, a bodysuit or some mixture of tank tops, jackets and cargo pants.

Personality: Simultaneously both what one would expect and the exact opposite of what one would expect from a trained soldier, Katya has a mind that was for the most part unhindered throughout her history with the Tungsten Knights. She carries with her a once-child soldier's token aloof nature and near-stoic penchant toward those she doesn't actively register as a "comrade", treating things with all the seriousness that was literally and figuratively beat into her and branded on her sleeve. On the opposite side, Katya's mind, through the years of neurological prodding done through experiments, has developed a second sort of mercurial nature with a love for science. Less bipolar than it is just a conscious switch, the young Slavic lady is both soldier and scientist, liking to meddle with things at times, tinkering, and acting every bit as curious as a child experimenting with different flavors of candy, and at others she is just as previously explained: a hardened veteran of indoctrination into the military.

That is of course, only referring to her mental state... Physically speaking, while her mind had been left unfettered to wander when she was given a break from mental conditioning, experiments after experiments to improve the pilot's psychosomatic reflexes and resistance to ill-effects of prototypical Hades OS encounters have left her body... With much to be desired when it comes to being a soldier, and even when it comes to being a matured female. To put it simply, while therapies and the like have very much improved her condition, when not connected to an ACS, Katya is slow. By slow, she has the approximate reflexes of a 4 year old boy, and on occasion a sloth, and her body simply refuses to move very fast at all. Her mind can move faster than many other people, but her body moves almost that much slower. All it leads to is a dichotomy between a spectacular specimen of a pilot and mind, and a failure of a ground trooper. In short... She's a bit of a klutz on the ground, and it's one insecurity that she has.

Incidentally, she's a great team player on the battlefield, talks a bit fast regardless of when she's in either "Soldier" or "Scientist" mode, and sucks at cooking because she burns everything. On the ground, Katya will most likely be wherever her quarters are, reading a book, or inside of her ACS to tune it or just for the comfort of being in the cockpit.

Bio:There had never been a time where Katya was not somehow associated with the military. Born a brat of her country's military, her parents kept her on base using some form of acquired permission, where she was taken care of by some of the soldiers as the base's collective "kid". This would've produced a rather normal, if not slightly more military inclined child, where her parents were nearly never there and a gun was just as familiar to her as a doll or a story book. But, "normal military brat" wasn't on fate's laundry list for this child, perhaps it was that very relationship with the military that had flagged her as a child with certain "Aptitudes". Katya had incredible, near pre-cognitive reflexes, and a fast thinking mind to keep up with it. She could run obstacle courses with ease, and solve complex problems that her older peers couldn't begin to comprehend, it seemed she was almost bred to be a great soldier.

What better specimen then would there be for the country's ever developing ACS program? Taken at the already impressionable age of 7, Katya was moved away from the base, moving on to the testing facilities that would become her home for the next 12 years. Removed from the eyes and care of "normal" soldiers, the young girl was now a guinea pig for officers, officials and scientists, where her prime specimen of a developing body could be put to use for the country. With a little mental conditioning, namely brainwashing, Katya's fond memories of the base she originated from disappeared, her life as a test subject then began. Experiments and training were the entire schedule for her for those years, conditioning her body and testing its limits, prodding at her innate reflexes and incisive mind to find the perfect balance between ACS pilot and ACS. In a place where she wasn't allowed anything a normal child would be given, alternatives had to be found to ease her mind and cull the growing resentment that had began to boil as a backlash against the brainwashed indoctrination.

Katya eventually found her refuge in one of the lead scientists in charge of her, actually finding what would be her sole support at the age of 11 and for years to come, a father figure and mentor of sorts. When she was upset by the barking of officers, without morale from the never ending conditioning, and in pain from whatever the experiment of the day was, she could rely on the good doctor. As fact had it, it was indeed that very doctor that limited whatever experiments were done on her, making sure that she'd be able to survive through the testing and procedures, and genuinely caring for her well being. It was perhaps for this very garnered and growing love that the doctor had eventually made a mistake. After a particularly harsh test on his charge, a test that he had actually disproved, he was angered at the officials and other scientist, feeling distracted by it and not particularly focused on what he was doing at the time, leading to his death when he exposed himself to fatal amounts of radiation from the then prototyped cloaking unit for the incomplete 04-HERMES.

Though unable to remove such strong memories from an already developed mind, Katya was, rather than devastated as they had expected and feared, simply left feeling that she was without purpose. She still made the occasional lab experiment to consume time between lessons, conditioning and testing, but other than that, everything suddenly became dull and routine to her. The time between experiments became muddled as she simply floated through life, not even realizing that without her doctor, the things being done to her were becoming increasingly invasive and detrimental to her health. It was due to the increasing harshness that her body began to deteriorate, eventually leading to her becoming a failure of a soldier, only useful for ACS testing as that was the only place she could move as she wished.

Eventually, at the age of 19, even with therapy and medicine, the small but significant damage to her nerves was permanent and her usefulness was rapidly waning. The 04-HERMES, the model named after the fastest of the Greek Gods and an ACS that had basically grown alongside the girl, was finished, the prototype model was created. With the necessary information already extracted from their precious dying guinea pig, Katya was no longer needed, and while the full production model lacked certain capabilities of the prototype due to monetary constraints, the Tungsten Knights had what they needed.

Realizing that she was marked for termination after one final test on the unit for bug fixes to the newest Hades-OS, a spark was lit that reignited Katya's will to live and memories of her mentor's caring and legacy. Quickly hacking the OS to remove the failsafes on her prototype unit, the soldier quickly and easily shot down any possible opposition and ran away using the mech based on her very data. Katya's ACS was perfect for the purpose it was built for: it was absurdly fast, nearly impossible to hit when paired with the pilot's calculative power, its modularity was unquestionable as she quickly stole the weapons meant for other testing units and used them to break away, and most of all, through whatever repeated raids that involved the unit, a near vampiric sort of visage was beginning to form around it, earning it the name of "Tepes" after the original vampire due to its demonic speed, red color scheme and tendency to leave enemies looking as if their ACS units, wrangled and completely beaten, have been sucked dry of life.

Now part of the incredibly small resistance, Katya aims to be as active as possible in commandeering supplies from any of the three factions. A recent raid was successful enough that she was able to take a few trucks, including an ACS transport with maintenance supplies and a weapons cache, bolstering the sustainability of the movement by a good deal.

[FONT="Impact"][SIZE="5"]ACS:[/SIZE][/FONT]
Name: 04-HEREMES-P "Tepes"
Appearance:

Notes:

Slightly shorter than the average ACS height, stands at 14 feet ( 1.4 Stories)
While not easily seen when in motion, the ACS unit has what appears to be a few vampire motif icons on various places just to support the growing "Tepes" nickname
Has a cyclopean eye in the middle of its head, both of which are triangular in shape, despite this, the unit has visual and thermal sensors distributed at various points on the body, there are few places the unit can't "see"
To avoid critical hardware malfunction, many of the joints are almost just as armored as the torso area, though just enough so that movement is not impeded.

Seen Equipped:
2x ACS Submachine Guns, 120mm Hybrid* APFSDS "Bolter" Rounds
1x Radar
1x Flare/Chaff Launcher
1x Shoulder Mounted Spread Rocket launcher; 150mm Non-Tracking Rockets
1x Basic ECM unit
[indent]*Hybrid refers to a round that is both solid state and energy in form, a "Charged" shot of sorts. Normally used to do damage to defensive shields and to melt non-ablative armor.

[/indent]
Weapons: Modular due to being a humanoid analogue ACS; Sticks to weapons suitable to a HADES-OS unit's speed, namely shotguns, machine guns, grenade launchers and high tracking missiles. Defensively, ECM is frequently used alongside "flash" bombs to make up for the lack of thicker armor and for situations where cloaking isn't an available option (i.e. rainy days).

These loadouts are not set in stone, but are just the typical set ups that are used. Weapons are interchangeable as the focus with the 04-Hermes was modularity

Standard Loadout:

1x Drum Fed (200 rounds) Twin-Linked "Bolter"
Fires 120mm Rocket Assisted APFSDS rounds known as "Bolts"
Rounds come in hybrid, depleted uranium, delayed explosive and diamond penetrator variants
Has a very high recoil, leading to a spread only suitable for short to mid range combat
A high rate of fire makes it go through its 200 round clip in seconds, magazines are stored in the waist area of the ACS.

1x "Elysium" Variant grenade launcher, specifically tuned for the high movement speed of Tungsten Knight ACS units, carries an incredibly wide range of ACS scale "Grenades"

1x Ablative plated ceramic and metal buckler style shield, comfortably shields against most standard and energy weapons, somewhat weak against high inertia, but can deflect hits in melee combat

1x Ultra-High Refresh rate Radar, aids in target acquirement and aiming

2x "Progressive" Combat Knives; Uses a blade made of an obscure alloyed metal that vibrates at high frequencies to literally sunder armor, this is a backup weapon

1x Flare, Chaff, "Flashbang" or Rocket Launcher; Carries approximately 10 of any mixture of munitions in a pod, easily interchangeable when the ACS unit is in for refitting

[/list]
Revised Standard Loadout:

Loadout seen in the "Appearance" section
Silencers can be added to this loadout's weapons for stealth
These work similarly to small arms scale silencers and silence the escaping gasses
They also do their best to reduce any of the mechanical sounds of the weapon working
Weapon Durability and firing speed is severely reduced
Reduces the speed of any round to subsonic

[/list]
Reconnaissance Loadout:

2x "Silenced" 105mm ACS Pistols
1x Charged retractable longblade
Basically a sword, but it's a bit flimsy as it "shrinks" for storage at a waist holster

2x Progressive Combat Knives

1x Ultra-High Refresh Rate RADAR

Enhanced Visual Systems

Allows the unit to see up to roughly 2.5 miles unhindered

1x Flare, chaff and EMP disruptor launcher

Only holds two canisters of each type

[/list]
"Vanguard" Loadout:

2x "Hermes" Variant Shotguns or 1x "Hermes" and 1x "Elysium" Grenade Launcher
The shotgun pellets are primarily a hybrid round (explained earlier) or simply depleted uranium

2x Ablative Plated Bucklers

"Vanguard" Armor modifications

Adds extra armor to joints, forearms, shins and torso
Adds integrated Progressive Wristblades
A holster is added to the waist area to holster weapons
A compact extra energy pack is added independently from the armor, this is connected to an array of extra boosters that even further add to Tepes' speed.

2x shoulder mounted missile pods holding one type of the following munition:

ACS scale Anti-Tank/Anti-Air missiles utilizing shaped charges; they're built similarly to Javelin missiles
"Micro Missile" canisters; basically, these are tiny missiles within missiles, trading firepower for extreme maneuverability and to make it much harder to dodge
Delayed explosion missiles that use either a plasma or kinetic penetrator

1x Ultra-High Refresh Rate Radar

6x EMP "Flashbangs" to disable enemy units without proper shielding

[/list]
Abilities :
A.S.I.S (Artificial Synaptic Impulse Stimulator) - The most controversial of the new Hades-OS prototype technologies, A.S.I.S simulates adrenal responses and imposes various neurological effects on the pilot to increase performance and reflexes. Short term use of this system gives pilots an edge over others through multiple means: vastly improved reflexes, a closer neural link to the ACS systems and subsystems, and visual enhancement. Long term use (namely using it for intervals longer than half a minute), is incredibly detrimental to the brain and body of the pilot as it interferes with the synapses and brain. In the case of Katya, her already disproportionate calculative ability and mental reflexes are increased to the point of basically slowing down time in her perception, giving her a practical pre-cognition. This function has a few bugs in the prototype, most of which have been dealt with in the production models.

Prototype Advanced Thrusters - With a more efficient energy to power ratio, the newest and greatest of technology from the Tungsten Knights has been poured into these thrusters, capable of sustaining flight for short intervals and providing more than ample thrust and power for quick, incredibly powerful bursts of speed in the ground and air. On the ground, provides a slight hovering lift that allows the ACS to quite literally glide at speeds reaching in the hundreds of miles per hour. Many maneuvers using these thrusters would be impossible without the aid of Inertial Dampeners. Any and all limiters to the thrusters have been removed for Katya and Inertial dampening upgraded and tuned to hopefully keep the pilot from fainting or dying from excessive forces. Thrusters CAN be used while cloaking is active to an incredibly limited extent, though they obviously are very loud, hot and will probably tip off the enemy to a location.

The fullest "burst" and maximum outputs of the thrusters reach somewhere above the speed of sound at roughly 2120km/h (1317 mp/h). Maximum speed requires a massive amount of energy and damages the unit's structure, and in the case of a "burst" will lead to potentially fatal g forces from the rapid acceleration, but in an emergency situation, either can lead to an advantageous maneuver. Maximum "Safe" speeds are subsonic to supersonic, ranging from 483-1770 km/h (300 - 1100 mp/h), with "bursts" occasionally breaking the sound barrier.

"Mirage" ECM System - When sheer speed and reactions fail, and cloaking isn't an option, it's up to ECM systems to back up units for the Tungsten Knights, the "Mirage" pattern ECM is a multi-spectrum Electronic Countermeasure designed to counter all types of electronic detection from infrared, RADAR and LADAR.

"Hassan" Cloaking System - Generally the same as the "Veil" cloaking system seen from the Ferrous guard, literally invisible to the entire spectrum of detection. The main differences between "Hassan" and "Veil" are functioning times (approx. 30 minutes opposed to 1.5 hours), the hardiness of the cloaking generator to keep it working perfectly under strenuous conditions, and the fact that this system also masks any sounds the ACS unit can make. Sometimes used alongside the electronic countermeasures in order to be doubly sure the unit can not be detected.

However, the main advantage and greatest innovation of the Hassan is, ironically, not its actual cloaking. Putting a rather heavy strain on the core and auxiliary power systems, the Hassan can enable the ACS to have a sort of visual, audio and electronic "displacement" effect. Manipulating light and working with sound waves in vain of a ventriloquist, the Hassan displaces the image of the ACS. In layman's terms, it's like throwing a pebble into a body of water, but the impact of the pebble with the water is different in correlation to the sound of the splash, and the ripple appears to have a different origin than the pebble's entry. All this leads to a hallucination that the ACS unit is where it isn't and is moving when it is actually standing still, and while it sounds like simple holograms, it is far more complicated than that. Displacement takes up a godawful amount of energy and lasts only in 5-30 seconds intervals depending on unit and battlefield condition or it'd risk straining the unit's reactor.

The cloaking system's main function does not work when the "Vanguard" Armor modification is equipped. The secondary displacement function works to a small degree, though more on the audio and electronic levels, though it can mask movements to a minute enough degree that actions in melee would be incredibly hard to predict (i.e. seeing the unit stab with a combat knife one second after it had actually been enacted).

Hassan Displacement is unavailable on production models as it requires an absurd amount of money to implement the system and the improved power core to keep up with it.

Inertial Dampeners - Exactly what it says on the package, normally the G forces imposed on both the ACS and the pilot during complex maneuvers would destroy both of them, inertial dampeners basically counteract Newton's Laws while still working with them. The inertial dampening systems found on the pre-production model are superior to its latter sister models as the pre-production model's pilot required it to survive.

Personality: Saten wears a serious expression most of the time and keeps a very emotionless face while speaking. She is a stoic to nearly extreme levels, preferring not to show her true emotions to other people and instead speaking either sarcastically or sardonically. Calling her emo would probably get you nowhere as she simply wouldn't care and react with either apathy or a sarcastic remark. Saten likes to study and is a master of all forms of science, enjoying experimenting with things and the process of creation. Even with her seeming negativity, Saten appears to enjoy collecting stuffed animals, and has a few up for display in her room. Also, despite the general's penchant for verbally abusing or outright ignoring everyone, she seems to care for her subordinates due to effectively maintaining and running the Simeon building's healthcare facilities with a 100% health recovery rate... Though it might be possible that she's just experimenting with things... Saten may or may not be a chronic liar, and besides the occasional work with other scientists, whether or not she's told the truth about anything to anyone is a mystery.

The one exception to Saten's sarcasm and stoicism is the owner of Simeon, who she seems to suddenly revert to being a respectable and upstanding person around. Though this is probably just so she doesn't get killed.
Fragment: Particle Manipulation
Name: Phaser
Description: Phaser could theoretically be used for many more things than Saten uses it for, and consequently holds a lot more potential than she lets on, most of this is due to a sort of "laziness" that she uses to cover up the fear she has of her Fragment. Particle Manipulation itself covers a broad spectrum of Physics, perhaps lending to the Fragment's status as a Missing Link. In the case of Saten, she usually reserves the use of her fragment to the more "simple" actions of either speeding up or slowing down molecular movement to heat up or cool down the temperature of objects. In a much more complicated action, Saten is able to temporarily scramble the make-up of her body in order to phase through objects or allow things to harmlessly pass through her. While Saten prefers to manipulate things with her hands, her fragment universally stems from her body.

Generally speaking, it's much easier to cool things down when the temperature is cooler and vice versa for heating things up. Another thing to note is that the Fragment can not create "fire" in the sense of a ball of flame, but it can easily make things combust and subsequently catch on flame, and it can easily excite oxygen to its flash point and cause explosions. There is no real set range for Saten's fragment, instead the effectiveness of the temperature manipulation falls off expontentially depending on distance; anything within a third to a full meter is considered to be in the "Kill" zone of Phaser, past that is incidental depending on how thermodynamics can be applied, and beyond 3 meters, heating up objects is a chore. Cooling things down, however, is much easier, and has a larger radius of effect, making for a much more mundane use of being a human air-conditioner.

The actual "Phasing" portion of the Fragment can only be applied to Saten as she's intimately familiar with the workings of her body down to the atomic level.

One can think of this skill as a sort of almagation of Dai Yon Ha/The Fourth Wave and Agni Schwatas, taken to their logical extremes. Some things formed by this ability (blobs of magma and ice crystals) can demonstrate minor telekinetic qualities in being lifted or thrown, but that's just due to a temporary control over the particles that make up those objects.
Weaknesses: As previously stated, the effectiveness of Phaser falls off in terms of exponents the further away the intended target is from Saten. While she can sort of fire particle beams to attempt to heat them up, she has less of a handle on doing this than simply freezing moisture in the air and oxygen itself and throwing absurdly sharp icicles with great accuracy. As for phasing through objects, or even phasing at all, Saten has a bit of a Trauma involving that part of her fragment pertaining to how she lost her eye.

Special Moves:
Nemesis - Manipulating whatever convenient gasseous material is around, Saten forms "energy blades" in the form of three gigantic claws extending from each hand. These plasma lances are able to cut through most materials, even things traditionally resistant to heat like porcelain and ablative armor. Combining this with her rather superior speed and agility, Saten is able to use this move to a catastrophic effect. The size and number of the claws can be changed to a limited extent, and occasionally she can turn the total of six claws into a single large "Sword" or "Lance" of plasma.

Zero Phase - Tossing reason to the curb, Saten is able to ignore any given object or attack thrown at her for a short moment as she stands still. It's a bit of a scary experience for her, but a brave facade and a cocky smile is all it takes for her to seem like she's in full control. In this mode, Saten is rendered mostly immobile, but is practically a ghost in that nothing in the physical world save for radiation and other particle manipulation powers can affect her. There is one rather blaring weakness to this move, but that's a well guarded secret that only those with common sense would ever think about. For all intents and purposes, when under the effect of Zero Phase, rather than becoming somewhat transparent, Saten simply seems out of focus, and is unable to be focused on.

Thousand Gauntlets - This skill can be summed up as throwing glaciers and magma at people. By concentrating and channeling her power to its highest potential, Saten is able to melt down portions of the ground or whatever convenient mineral-rich material is laying around, lifting them up into the air, and throwing them at someone, then following it up for irony by solidifying small glaciers in the air and throwing those as well. Both the magma and glaciers can be split into smaller sections and thrown like blades at the enemy instead, probably easier and more effective anyway, like a sort of primitive machine gun where instead of bullets you get danmaku a hail of rocks and very sharp icicles.

Frostfire - The baseline ability of being able to manipulate things on a molecular level, this is where Saten is able to manipulate her own body temperature, or that of others. This is an instantaneous effect that only requires that the target be within her "Kill" zone of one meter. From there, she is able to freeze things into icicles or make concrete spontaneously combust. Alternatively she can just make cute little ice sculptures that are also on fire at the same time.... Sarcasm aside, Frostfire is an incredibly adaptable skill that mostly just requires Saten to touch a target with whatever part of her body. A bonus effect is that any wounds inflicted on her can be temporarly fixed in an instant by freezing the wound, and as Saten is in control of all of this, she's seemingly "immune" to extreme temperatures.

*The video has nothing to do with her actual abilities. Though it does imply some things.

Hanahira Hikaru [+]

Holy crap the fragment is laughably weak right now... I might buff it or rewrite it altogether. I think I might actually do something with poison rather than density or ossification, and ride the snake motif more than the gorgon/Medusa motif.

Name: Hanahira Hikaru
Gender: Unknown, claims to be male, but no one's seen "anything". Dresses and acts like a girl though.
Age: 19
Race: Needless
Abilities: Maintaining an incredibly effeminate voice even after hitting puberty, cooking, cleaning, annoying Kudon, making clothes (and applying stitches), and suddenly being able to switch to "Man" mode when he's bored.
Role: Designated Trap; Member of the Misfits; Nurse
Appearance:

Alternative outfit: Link
Hikaru wears glasses at all times appropriate, and generally keeps his hair tied up nicely in a low sort of ponytail.
Personality: Perhaps the fault of some kind of personality disorder, there are two personalities that Hikaru can act upon, their distinction isn't wholly clear and can be rather blurry. They both refer to themselves by the same name, and they both identify as male...

The first personality speaks politely and with reserve, he's considerably effeminate, known to be "more ladylike than any lady" or "girlier than any girl". Hikaru in this personality is a somewhat serious and strong-willed person, somewhat acting like a mother or better yet an older sister to the rest of the misfits where Kudon could be thought of as a father or uncle of sorts. Hikaru is loyal to a fault to the other Misfits, and has a penchant of always carrying a faint and nearly unnoticeable smile, he's cheerful most of the time, giving the occasional witty remark or needed wisdom on a subject. Generally speaking, the easiest way to describe this facet of Hikaru is as a mature, humble yet determined individual who cares for his comrades and likes to crack jokes at Kudon's notions of "Manliness." Despite identifying as male, it seems that Hikaru strives to act at least vaguely like a proper lady... If Kudon is describable as the picture of manliness, then Hikaru would be the picture of femininity... Even if he insists he's male.

On the flip side, the second personality manifests itself in obvious ways, namely when Hikaru stop's wearing girl's clothes, ties his ponytail up a bit higher, starts frowning and being otherwise... Rather masculine.... Hikaru in this form is excitable and hot-blooded, not very much unlike Kudon. However, while acting generally more like a man than normal, Hikaru remains to have some feminine qualities, acting sort of in a sarcastic or snarky fashion... Perhaps this "personality" is just the relatively clever Hikaru feeling bored or frustrated with others and just venting on them.

Either way, Hikaru likes to pick on, tease, or simply annoy Kudon no matter what. Despite this, he still respects the impromptu leader in a sort of unspoken fashion, and would step up to protect him if the need ever arose.
Fragment:
Name: Foul Play
Description: Foul Play is a fragment revolving around and involving the creation and utilization of varying degrees of poisons and their antidotes. The poisons and antidotes themselves are transferred through one of two methods, direct skin contact, or contact with bodily fluids; the latter of the two is far more effective than the former. Hikaru is capable of concocting minor to instantly lethal poisons and their antidotes within his own body, transmitting them through any of his bodily fluids, though most effective through blood, these concoctions can be applied to weapons or administered into food or syringes. In the case of skin contact, poison is secreted through sweat glands then absorbed through the skin of the intended target. In a similar manner to manipulating his own fluids, Hikaru is able to transfigure an enemy's bodily fluids into various poisons, though this requires that he be touching an open wound or an orifice of the target or be otherwise close to said areas. Of course, things other than bodily fluids can be turned into a poison or antidote, such as water or oil... But these things are harder to convert and aren't as potent as poisons created within an enemy or within Hikaru's own body. The poisons that Hikaru makes can take the form of "timed-release" supplements, where they don't seem to be effecting an enemy until a designated time later. The use of these timed-release poisons lends to the name of the Fragment.

On the flip side, Hikaru is able to make antidotes for poisons other than his own, making him an ideal person to keep around for a "Detox" or a trusty Panacea. While he can't heal things like diseases or viral infections, if it's a poison or toxin of any kind, he should be able to inoculate an antidote for it. Yes, that includes indigestion and hangovers.
Weaknesses: Foul Play is in the end a surprise or assassination skill, as it requires direct contact or application to a blade, a great deal of martial prowess or cunning is needed to apply these poisons to enemies. Along with this, the poisons that Hikaru manufactures from non-bodily fluids (his own or an enemy's) are notably weak, this also includes the poisons in his sweat that are used in the skin contact version of the fragment. This would mean that Hikaru would probably have to bleed himself to make any amount of potent poisons...
Special Moves:
Twin-Fangs - This actually refers to one of three things, one of which is the move itself. Primarily, Hikaru's Twin-Fangs are two rather plain, but incredibly durable push daggers that he can coat with any of his varying range of concoctions, he refers to these daggers as his "fangs", things that he uses in conjunction with a martial art that he picked up a long time ago before meeting the Misfits. The name can also refer to Hikaru's nails, which can carry the same poisons and are used alongside the very same martial art. The actual Twin-Fang ability manifests itself in either an unbelievably quick throw of the daggers, or a surge of speed through an unrestrained vertical jump. In the case of the surge of speed, Hikaru puts his all into a single burst of energy, leaping forward with speeds not far from a jump made by someone with a Power Fragment, then driving his poisoned daggers into the enemy. The maximum range of the leap attack is roughly 5-8 meters and he can't use the skill often and has to be held back from its fullest potential lest he ruin his muscles or simply collapse from exhaustion.

Snake Eater - It's a fact that some poisons can actually be made into physically-enhancing drugs, this is an ability Hikaru uses as a rather desperate effort if he needs to either overpower or match an enemy that's more powerful than him. Snake Eater can give a varying degree of effects, most of them not too far from what a shot of adrenaline would give you: enhanced strength and speed, endurance and reflexes. As this is essentially doping himself, Hikaru can potentially overdose and harm himself, or simply concoct the poison improperly and still harm himself. This will also do a large amount of damage to his muscles and organs with repeated use, even if he were to apply antidotes and detoxification.

Crimson Buster - Probably one of the most sinister uses of Foul Play, after successfully administering a special brew of toxins, an enemy is basically doomed to die from a poison that has no cure unless they have unreal healing powers or are administered an antidote from Hikaru. This poison is brewed in the target's stomach much in the same way as appendicitis basically concocts an instantly fatal brew of toxins that kill the afflicted upon the appendix exploding. As a matter of fact, appendicitis is one other method that this poison can instill. Hikaru must puncture his target's abdominal region to successfully administer this poison, giving the stomach or appendix an increase of toxins and infecting those organs to become inflammed then eventually burst. The advantage of this special attack is that all that is required is Hikaru break skin and draw blood, so even a small wound from a syringe or a poison tipped dagger, or even a well placed strike from his nails can administer this poison. Unless the target has extremely powerful healing abilities or reinforced organs, or unless Hikaru gives them an antidote, this poison is lethal. Targets subjected to the Crimson Buster will first notice symptoms of a stomachache and nausea, followed by extreme pain in their abdominal region, massive amounts of vomiting may occur as the body tries to eject the toxins and save the subject, but eventually the area between the esophagus and stomach swells to the point of closure and the stomach will explode, releasing the target's stomach acids and the poison into the body, eating away and poisoning whatever living tissue it comes into contact with... This process is a timed release and Hikaru can adjust the potency to take place over anywhere between 10 short minutes (the onset of extreme pain taking only 4 minutes), and an excruciating 7 hours. In the case of the more tame appendix poison, the appendix can be removed along with the poison in a way similar to appendicitis.

Foul Play - Named after the Fragment itself, this is actually just a combination of all three of the previously mentioned abilities. Hikaru will dope himself to increase his physical energy and strength, then perform the leap-strike of Twin-Fangs while aiming for the opponent's stomach to inject the Crimson Burst poison.... Of course, he could always just use the abilities together without screaming "FOUL PLAYYYY!" but there's no fun in that.

Alicia Dominica [+]

Name: Alicia Dominica
Race: Human
Title: The Titan's Hand; Tempest; Captain
Class: Pirate Captain, sometimes a licensed Privateer... captain; Master of Gun & Sword
Rank: "Hero"

Equipment:

Belt of the Titan: What was originally a gigantic ring, this was the first treasure that Alicia ever owned, and one that she keeps on her at nearly all times. It takes the form of a segmented golden metal belt with a bejeweled buckle that she wears loosely around her waist. Either latent magic leftover from its original, titanic owner or some kind of enchantment has given the belt the ability to enable its wearer incredible strength with relatively little cost to the body, strength to carry and fire cannons, to uproot trees and cleave men in twain with one's bare hands.

Sea Splitter: A cutlass of strange proportion and size, with a somewhat plain looking black sheath. One third of the blade is saw toothed, the saw bits made of fragments of kraken teeth and the blade is wreathed in some form of techno-sorcery created energy. In unskilled hands, the Sea Splitter can bisect a fully armored man in two. In the more than capable hands of Alicia, they are capable of great feats of slaughter with even greater amounts of precision. One untold ability of the sword is its ability to direct the flow of water in a small radius around Alicia, this includes the blood within the body. The ability finds little usefulness in the grim darkness of the Plains, though.

Betwixt and Between: Claiming that she "borrowed" this pair of incredibly ornate gilded handguns off of some incredibly shrine somewhere, Betwixt and Between are two strangely shaped handguns with even stranger ammunition. Engraved with images of armored angels of death battling alien creatures and supposedly crafted by a god of the forge, they fire bolts of condensed magic that need only a short amount time to recharge between shots. The bolts pierce through enemy armor and flesh, embedding themselves into them before exploding violently and causing immense damage to targets and leaving littlet opportunity for survival.

Vestements of a Captain: Several magical and scientific trinkets dispersed throughout her person and in her personal stash, many of which appear to simply be ornamental at first glance. They are in fact almost all some form of plundered, looted, stolen, or occasionally bought items that strengthen and embolden <Alicia> in many varying ways, making her an incredibly versatile warrior depending on what she chooses to wear. Many of these trinkets are elemental in nature, or offer some form of other protection from harm. Alone, many are rather minor, but in conjunction, they make her the near unstoppable and irremovable Captain she is. Along with her belt, these trinkets are her symbols of leadership.

The Titan's Folly: The flagship of Alicia's fleet, somehow brought in through the gigantic portal and used as a sort of combination between a battlement and the living quarters for the captain and her crew. With a thick hull and its starboard broadside pointed toward the enemy, the ship functions like a stationary fort and firing support for the rest of the heroes, as well as a comfortable buffer for the Tempest when she goes to sleep. Unlike many things related to Alicia, the ship isn't really magical in many ways, but it is a sort of scientific marvel.

Abilities:

Pragmatism: No matter how large of an advantage the Captain has with her superhuman strength, with the aid of her crew, and with her Vestements, she is still a pirate, meaning she will fight as dirty as she can when given the chance and opportunity. To use whatever advantages in environment, to ambush, poison, and do generally whatever it takes to win a battle isn't simply a matter of choice for her kind, it's the best and most effective way to survive.

"The Ship & Crew": In order to preserve her Letter of Marque back in Alessus, and to maintain her pirating empire, the Captain has left the vast majority of her men, ships and treasure back home. Taking a good portion of her more trusted and skilled men with her along with her entire flagship, she has a sizable honor guard to help her in battle. Each of the crewmembers she has brought along is a small "hero" in his (or her, in the rare case), own right, and all armed with some kind of weapon treasure that they could find. A relatively powerful bunch when fighting together, they're all good comrades and friends, and always welcoming to someone that'd drink with them or play them a good song.

The Tempest: Being a female, Alicia's claim to being a captain wasn't always a certain thing, she had to earn her keep and prove herself long before she could even rise above just being the last captain's wife. One of these ways of gaining her power hold over the crew and grasping her chances at being a captain was her swordsmanship skills. Unparalleled and unerring swordsmanship without peer, she can go toe to toe with much more powerful beings, and when played right (dirty), she can even win against larger, more powerful foes without her titan belt and sword.

Nine Lives: The most powerful and potent protective charms that make up her Vestements, nine cat's eye gems that constantly give off an eerie glow -all but two- that alternate between green, yellow and amber. These gemstones are all tied together in a bracelet, worn as a permanent display on Alicia's wrist. As the name would imply, they literally give Alicia nine extra lives, though an observant eye would note that it seems two of the gems have been extinguished, meaning the captain has "died" at least three times before. These gemstones actually age in place of her as well, decaying one by one as they feed her some form of invigorating and imbuing life force. As long as the gemstones aren't completely destroyed, Alicia can revive from any given wound, no matter how grievous or destructive.

History: The Empire of Thoradia is the technological center of Alessus, with a large amount of inventors, scientists, inventive techno-sorcerers, and all around creative thinkers. It's also the home of a system that marks individuals as "Heroes" and academies for the children of said heroes should they die. In an ironic twist, Alicia's parents were heros of this ilk, they had done great deeds in the name of their Emperor and country, dying honorable and fittingly heroic deaths in some martyr-like way. Or so they told Alicia when she was visited at her home one day at the age of 11 by agents of Thoradia and taken to the Rino Fabvius Academy for the orphaned but exceptional children of aristocrats and heroes. There, under the highly educational yet mortifyingly strict tutelage of the Academy that the honorary aristocrat was first touched by her fascination with history and artifacts. It was in her times ditching her classes with a fellow classmate outside of the Academy's walls that she was first faced with the seas, granting her the wanderlust to explore them and see all that history she took an appreciation for firsthand.

It would be another eight years before Alicia would graduate from that academy, and now a young woman, she was free to do what she pleased, as long as it wasn't unbecoming as her status as a graduate. So, love for the sea strong as ever, she gained a licence for managing shipyards, and somehow along the way joined the navy as a low ranking officer aboard a large capital ship. Once aboard and sailing, her wishes to travel were rekindled...

Some time into her voyages, the military vessel and its escorts were come upon by pirate vessels, raided by a numerically superior and faster force, they were able to put up a fight for an entire day before finally surrendering, most of the crew dead or simply too tired to continue. The entire ship was taken and put under new management, and the captain of the pirates made the ship his own. Alicia, one of the survivors, had attracted the eye of the captain, who gave her an ultimatum: be a wench for the crew, or marry him. The choice was obvious, really... All that done, excuse plot aside (sorry), Alicia eventually gained the trust of her captain, but not the crew, and when he died, she had a bunch of personal treasures that had been gifted to her by the captain, and she took over the ship and the fleet.

Biography: While Alicia's actually a pirate more for the adventure than the loot, she's never quite too distant from it. Never-the-less, she gave up her daily life of sailing and plundering and adventuring because she loves Alessus and its seas, things that wouldn't be so fun if the seas were dry and all of the cities and people destroyed. There's an alterior motive that the captain had come to the battlefront with at least some intention of taking "souveniers" off of departed heroes when no one else is looking... Not like the dead need their trinkets anyway.

Flaws: Despite an admittedly very rocky start with her climb to being a captain, the crew and Alicia have formed an unspeakable sort of bond that only people who have lived and fought together can have. Every loss and every major wound to a crewmember is like a personal hit to the Captain, like the loss of an incredibly important family member. She consquently does her best to ensure the safety and morale of her crew. Beyond that, all of the people from The Titan's Folly, the Captain included, are human, meaning they are susceptible to humanity's own weaknesses, especially without the treasures they use to protect them.

As a pirate, or perhaps just as a person that simply gotten used to pirating, Alicia is a tad bit prone to wander off to a random direction when she has nothing to focus on, and can be a slight kleptomaniac when given chance. To more righteous individuals, she could be considered someone of somewhat loose morals, with a loyalty that can never be bought at any price, but one that can be rented at a remarkably reasonable rate... Luckily, demons aren't all too interested in hiring.

Then there's that thing about occasionally going to battle inebriated...

One more thing to understand is that while techno-sorcery is a path that inventors in Thoradia can take, true magical constructs and the might of spells are all but unknown to the technological Thoradians, this includes the Captain and her crew, who know quite little about magic beyond the powers bestowed upon them by the artifacts they carry.

Azuki Suminori [+]

“Our deeds determine us, as much as we determine our deeds.”

Azuki Suminori
Age: 23

Appearance: Azuki has dark brown, almost black hair that extends to about halfway down her back, and orange eyes. Her build is compact and muscular, in other words: athletic. For some reason, despite being 23, she looks about 10 years younger and has the height to match her looks, being only slightly taller than Shizuko but still shorter than Emiri, but the weight to match whatever percentage of muscle mass she has, making her look like a 13 year old straight out of the junior Olympics. Azuki’s choice of clothing style can be called dead simple, the wardrobe consisting mostly of skirts, t-shirts, jeans and a few dresses, and her hair is almost always found in a ponytail and she wears plastic framed glasses. On the flip side, she is known to sometimes go about in traditional Japanese clothing, or parts of her kendo uniform. Azuki is particularly strong, agile and has quite a good deal of stamina, even amongst other Puella Magi, perhaps because of her mastery of the martial art style Niten Ichi-ryuu.

Her Puella Magi outfit consists of a short blue and white kimono with a floral pattern and black frills on the bottom, two swords are worn at her waist: a rather plain looking wakizashi and a rather ornate katana with what appears to be her soul gem embedded into the pommel, reinforced by metal, probably to keep the gem from getting damaged.

Personality: Azuki seems to live alone and on her own terms, and as she no longer works as a swordplay apprentice outside of Mitakihara (her main source of social encounters), she isn’t one to talk or socialize much either and prefers to be left to her own devices. She is rather tough, even occasionally demeaning and often serious, lending to a sense that she’s incredibly strong-willed and stubborn, if not decisively intelligent and witty. She doesn’t get personally close to many people, but occasionally shows a mentoring or nice disposition to even the random passerby if they seem to be in need of help. However, unlike her stiff and stoic personality shown toward the general public and most individuals, Azuki is known to be very nice to children, often giving them advice or telling them stories. Even then, she seems to maintain a stern sort of attitude with them, making sure to tell children not to make unnecessary wishes without thinking them through. She seems to hate wishful thinkers in general, or at least people who set goals but never act upon them, including people who stand about only asking to be helped rather than trying to help themselves. On another note, due to being mistaken for being much younger due to her appearance, Azuki can sometimes be seen with an unlit cigarette in her mouth, which she very rarely actually lights, but does have a lighter for in case she does.

Azuki is actually a Puella Magi, and an incredibly veteran one at that, having been fighting witches for over 10 years now. The fact that she’s been a Puella for so long is actually the reason she’s so cold to most people and doesn’t maintain many friendships, as she’s well aware that she can turn into a witch or die at any given time. It’s also the obvious reason behind her seeming lack of being able to age. Despite being a Puella, and despite her history, Azuki is incredibly stable mentally, seeing the disposal of witches as putting a suffering person out of their misery. Even then, she isn’t very friendly to other Puella Magi most of the time, and will work alone.

Likes: Animals, seafood, Sengoku Dramas, classical literature, sweets that aren’t azuki related
Dislikes: Azuki Beans, blind wishes, crowds, bitter food, romance novels, playing video games (even if she’s good at them)
Pet Peeves: Anyone willingly taking advantage of another person in any way
Hobbies/pastimes: Practices a few forms of martial arts, especially swordsmanship, draws and paints and writes (bad) poetry in her free time

Simple Backstory: Originally part of a family of four, life couldn’t have seemed any more normal for Azuki. Living in a small town not far from Mitakihara, Azuki was a sweet, if not slightly timid girl, unfettered by any real worries outside of getting good grades in school or making sure she practiced her kendo for the small dojo her parents owned. She felt blessed to have such a quiet life, getting along well with her older sister, Mikan, and feeling like she was rather close to both of her parents.

Life for both Mikan and Azuki changed after a series of events led the two of them becoming Puella Magi. For a time, the two functioned as a particularly effective duo, the then 13 year old Azuki and her 16 year old sister kept their town and surrounding areas free of witches with just themselves. Eventually, however, Mikan fell into despair, turning into a witch to be soon defeated by Azuki. This left the girl alone, but somehow unbroken as she hardened her skills and her mind, preparing to fight alone for the rest of her life.

Azuki has gone through her regular schooling in her old town, moving to Mitakihara to go to College there, and to get away from an increasing population of Puella in her old place of residence, feeling distaste toward them.

Misc:

Trivia:
* Azuki used to co-own a dojo back at her old town, but gave full ownership to her partner after she left. The dojo taught Niten Ichi-ryuu, the style employed by Miyamoto Musashi.
* Azuki can only cook fish and rice, and little variations of the two, though it isn’t like she can’t boil water or use a microwave.
* It isn’t all too uncommon to find Azuki in completely random parts of the city, drawing or writing poetry. If you’re lost, she might even draw you a rather accurate map.
* Contrary to how tough she acts, pointing out just how bad Azuki’s poetry can be will make her really sad.
* Azuki is, however, a rather good artist, especially with sumi-e paintings.
* It’s a good thing that, despite Azuki’s wish, she doesn’t unceasingly gain muscles…

Abilities and Puella Magi powers:
For someone of her size, and even taking muscle mass into account, Azuki is disproportionately and absurdly strong. This is perhaps owed to the fact that she’s a Puella Magi, even if she is strong for even them. Never-the-less, she is an incredibly skilled practitioner of Hyouhou Niten Ichi-ryuu, especially with matters of the sword and two swords wielded together. In hand to hand combat, Azuki employs a mixture of Aikido and Karate to make up for the offensive and defensive weaknesses of both martial arts.

Azuki’s Puella Powers are for the most part, like many other Puella, centered on her wish, which was “to become unceasingly stronger [to protect those she loves]”, her weapons of choice are a daishou (a katana and wakizashi pair), named Owari and Hajime, respectively. Owari is seemingly ornate, and rather heavy, but the blade is also absurdly sharp and strong. With the phrase “a samurai’s soul is in his sword” in mind, the sword takes this literally by having Azuki’s soul gem embedded in its pommel, perhaps actually being the reason the sword is so powerful (as it would mean it’s directly empowered by her soul). Hajime is incredibly plain, with a black sheath and black handle, and is slightly shorter than Owari, yet it is much lighter, light enough that it can be carried by normal people, but is also much less sharp. Azuki can employ one of the two swords at a time, or both at the same time, Hajime is used more often as she uses it on familiars and weaker witches. Supplementing her two swords are primarily offensive magics of different types and origins, possibly learned over the years that Azuki has been fighting, or granted so that she could “become stronger”. One of her more notable spells includes being able to extend the range of her swords with magic.

Even unarmed and without magic, Azuki is capable of fighting weaker witches with her bare hands.

Beyond combat, she is a skilled artist, whereas her poetry is rather horrible. She also seems to be decently good with classical literature and Japanese history. Azuki seems to have distaste for math, and no real knack for science.

Description: Standing at a relatively reasonable height of 5'5", Octavia's most remarkable features are her nearly bio-luminescent blue eyes and her (perhaps unfortunately) eternally messy waist-length (when it's down) hair, which makes her look as if she's just come out of bed in every encounter. Her fashion is relatively normal with a predilection for hair clips and save for almost always wearing some form of lab coat, and her hair is somehow naturally purple. Most unremarkably, her chest is as flat as a board, her eyes are almost constantly in a state of looking bored, even if her lips are smiling and eyebrows are frowning or some other state of facial expression. On other notes, she's a light 117lbs, her "muscles" can be called "squishy", her skin is rather smooth and something to be proud of, her messy hair has never developed an ahoge and her device is normally either a hairclip or a necklace pendant. As a pendant... Her device looks somewhat similar to a USB with a blue crystal sheath.

Magic System: Faux-Belkan Hybridized Mid-Childan (Mid-Childa as a base with a few Belkan theorems thrown in for the sake of science... magical science. So technically non-canon, though similar to Raising Heart and Bardiche)
Magic Color: Near-White Blue
Mana-conversion Affinity?: Lightning
Barrier Jacket Description: Octavia's Barrier Jacket is a mostly white ensemble of a white short jacket with large wrist cuffs over a white zipper vest with a v-neck collar that ends right below her bust line, both over a dark grey shirt. She sports a light blue skirt and a pair of dark grey thigh-high stockings with black boots and light grey laces. Her jacket has accents of light and dark blues, and a few purples. A variety of field generators are placed at her boots, on her wrist cuffs, on the belt of her skirt and on her shoulders. Interestingly enough, she has a pair of cat-ear shaped hair ornaments when in her barrier jacket, they function as rangefinders and targeting assistance modules. Outfit based roughly around this. Additionally, the Barrier Jacket has an add-on equipment mode that adds an Armored Stabilizer set to her outfit, looking like a pair of mechanical wings at her waist, like the ears, they aid in target acquisition with the added benefit of ease of turning with the slightly unwieldy Soul Tracer and recoil reduction, along with added armor benefits.
Magic Device: Intelligent Device (Name: Soul Tracer)
Favorite Spells:
[TABLE]Name: | Type: | Description:
Compressor | Shooting/Bombardment | A rather simple yet versatile spell that compresses down mana into a compact form of varied and controllable degrees of power. These are compacted into the shape of orbs or pellets and can be used to shoot at the enemy like a form of magical grenade, or shot at the ground or specific points in the air to detonate at another time.
Inverter | Bind | Octavia creates an unstable orb of opposing energies that collapse and implode into a miniature vacuum, sucking the target closer to it and momentarily stunning them. Objects and people caught inside feel compressed and are unable to move due to gravitational effects and the fact that they're being shocked at the same time.
Helix Locker | Barrier | A very fancy name for a very simple beehive barrier, it is ablative in property and is such much more capable against ranged magic than it is against melee attacks.
Floater | Transport | A temporary, mana assisted flight that takes the shape of a pair of small blue wings at Octavia's shoulder blades. Flight time depends on how much mana she puts into the spell, and is highly inefficient, making it much better for simply jumping very high then landing softly.
Ripper | Melee | Actually part of a device mode, this is the spell construct to create the "bits" that make up the chainsaw bits in Soul Tracer's Ripper Mode
Collector | Support | A collection type spell that gathers spent energy in the area to "Refill" some of Octavia's spent cartridges, this takes time and requires her to stand still, and will also effectively light up her position due to the visible culmination of mana.[/TABLE]

Personality: Hard to put down into a few words, Octavia is a sort of girl that goes with her own flow. She has a casual way of referring to most people, is polite in some parts of her speech, absurdly lax in others and almost invariably calls anyone of higher rank than her "Boss". If she's reprimanded for such colloquial nomenclature, she will refer to them by their proper rank and name. Apart from how she talks, Octavia seems to stay within her own little world at most times, coming off as aloof and a tad air-headed, yet at the same time she maintains an insight that could only come from someone that is very observant and astutely familiar with other people, which is downright jarring for some.

When it comes to "science" or the sciences behind magic, Octavia can be thought to have a few screws loose. She has a small obsession with explosions and making explosions, and an unhealthy attraction for experiments on Devices when they sometimes simply don't need the random "upgrades" she gives them (Soy sauce dispenser and toaster oven for your mid battle egg in a basket? No? How about an under-slung grenade launcher for your sword? Obvious exaggerations).
Outward Disposition: With people, Octavia is someone who treats absolutely everyone as if they're familiar, bar none, and for the most part this is how she feels about everyone. However, towards Devices, she may be something to be feared, sort of similar to the strange doctor with a particularly loose set of ethics and morals. The Device Meister has a habit of seeing devices that aren't her dear Soul Tracer (as she advertises him as a "complete product"), as something that can always be perfected and experimented on...
Personal History: Messing with... Rather... working with Devices has been something that's run through the Zagoto family for some time now. Born to two rather well-esteemed Device Meisters, Octavia lived a particularly wonderful life of "privilege" in a home attached to a laboratory in Central Mid-Childa where she could practice her seemingly genetic inclination toward the magical sciences. Her parent's profession becoming her own profession and deep interest in life as she learned more and more from them and from books and classes.

Where along the line she picked up such a large interest in making things explode or how she attained such a strangely whimsical personality when her parents were esteemed and incredibly well-behaved members of society is completely unknown. However, what is known is that despite her somewhat shady practices at times, when she's given a clear contract on what to do for a device, it is something that will be completed with the utmost precision and perfection.

It is with this reason that Octavia became highly recommended amongst the TSAB over simply staying in the private sector her entire life. Something which she embraced wholeheartedly as military grade Devices and military grade laboratory experiments always yielded better explosions...

[*]Accelerated Mode: Like shooter mode, only it is now sporting six barrels of fun rather than a box surrounding one barrel. This is achieved by the "Box" opening up a slight bit more to reveal a cylindrical set of barrels that fold out.[*]Burst Mode: Again, similar to shooter mode, only it looks something similar to Raising Heart in Buster Mode[*]Ripper Mode: The rear section folds down to a 45 degree angle and gains a secondary handle, a hand shield pops out between the central cylinder and the barrel, the barrel itself no longer exists and... Oh hell it's a Chainsaw with a barrel magazine and magical glowing blades for bits.[/list][/list]

Elise McClaren [+]

A potential replacement for Octavia should she die or be incapacitated to the point that she can no longer continue with the mission. Much of this is based off my original ideas for Octavia, before she became what she is now, making this somewhat a Prototype!Octavia character sheet. Heck, even if this isn't used here, if I find another Nanoha RP, or make my own, this is in line to be the next character I'll use. Oh, and excuse my potential abuse of the German Language.

Name: Elise McLaren
Species: Combat Cyborg
Age: 15; 5 Years of Active Time, 10 Years in Stasis Tube
Gender: Female
Home world: Fehrdi (TSAB-Administrated World #281)

Fehrdi is one of the most recently obtained worlds for the Time Space Administration Bureau. It was once an Earth-like planet made up of 12 continents and 68% water, but is now covered in various overcast of black clouds that rain ash and snow and other signs of heavy pollutants and nuclear winter. Much of the oceans have dried up, or frozen over, most of the land is uninhabitable, and massive "Corruption Edifiers" float above orbit, hovering above massive city-domes, slowly cleaning and attempting to reseed the ruined world. The Fehrdi people are a hardy, if not sometimes grim and fatalistic bunch, living within hab domes with a few residing in the Corruption Edifiers above, their grasp on magic is to a high degree, rivaling that of Contemporary Mid-Childa, though much more similar to that of Ancient Belka.

Due to their planet's harsh nature, many normal humans will never see the outside of the Hab Dome, or the natural light of the binary star the planet orbits, and the ones that wish to venture outside are forced to wear thick protective great coats and vapor-masks. With things how they are, Fehrdi has developed a keen sense of interest toward the Cybernetic Sciences, having developed a very firm grasp that far exceeds that of Mid-Childa. As such, there is a sizeably large population of Cyborgs amongst the Fehrdi people, a fact that disturbed the first Investigators sent in from the Bureau as they did not yet know of the planet's technology. To further upset initial investigation, the Fehrdi have a rather rigid military populated by a majority of Combat Cyborgs, raised to fight from cradle to grave, with combat expertise and personalities to match such a profession.

As an Administrated world, most of their military has been absorbed by bureau, but left to be mostly autonomous lest they anger the population, something they really don't want to do. A select few have become TSAB agents, usually after a thorough personality and ability screening, as well as various tests to ensure dependability and a willingness to work with off-worlders. The Fehrdi people, while accepting of the TSAB's help, and relatively passive toward the claims to restructure their government for "better management", are still reluctant to give away all of their "Freedoms".

Description:

Alternative 1
Alternative 2
Standing at roughly 5'5", Elise's albino features and small, lithe frame at first glance can lead to an incredibly deceptive appearance. With relatively long, shiny, silvery-white hair carrying a blue tint, crimson or maroon eyes and smooth, pale skin, Elise has a somewhat doll-like, serene appearance, especially coupled with her tendency to wear modest, simple clothing when outside her quarters and vaguely stoic expression. Not normally known to others, and definitely never on display to the general peering eyes, she has a barcode and an ID tattooed under her left shoulder blade, and an octagon with a feline like creature inside of it tattooed under her right, marking her as a combat cyborg manufactured and grown from the stasis tubes of Fehrdi.

When outside of her quarters, Elise is known to wear her Fehrdi Military Uniform, a black and dark grey ensemble of a jacket over a white dress shirt, with a red skirt. Red stripes are distributed over various parts of her jacket and she wears a pantyhose, with a pair of combat boots to finish it all off. At almost all times, Elise's hair is done up in a pair of twin tails.

Magic System: Fehrdi (Classified as Inherent Skills in the Mid-Childan System)
Magic Color: Aqua Blue; Magical Circles look like a cross between IS Template and Formula Plates
Mana-conversion Affinity?: None
Barrier Jacket Description: Formerly known to the Fehrdi People as Krieg Armor, Elise's Barrier Jacket doesn't really add much to her outfit besides a pair of metalic gaunlets that extend to her elbows, metal greaves that cover slightly above her knees, and a few other armor elements to her, including an extra layer of black with red stripes jacket over her usual uniform. Also included are a pair of right-angle pyramid shaped hair ornaments that are situated right at the base of her twintails.
Magic Device: Rail Blade is Elise's Inherent Equipment in the shape of an oversized claymore or Zweihander with rifle elements to it and a slit down the middle of the blade's width. The Device is actually as heavy as it looks, and can not be lifted by a person of normal strength. While classified as an Inherent Equipment, the Device holds a mundane Artificial Intelligence, making it something of an Intelligent Device rather than a normal IS. Similar in construction to an Armed Device, it also holds a charge system that is fed by batteries, very similar to a cartridge system in that the batteries are shaped like Magazines and can be used to boost magical effects. The programming language is either in German or English and refers to Elise as Frau Kommandant or simply Frau. Both Rail Blade and Elise's Krieg Armor are summoned with a quick Command Phrase: "Krieg winkt." In its storage form, Rail Blade looks like a solid, platinum octohedron.
Rail Blade comes in two forms:

[*]Schwertwaffe: Rail's standard mode, where it is used very much like an armed device and swung like a sword, despite having a rifle grip.[*]Gleisgewehr: Rail's secondary mode, the two halves separated by the split in the middle come apart and slugs are fired[list][*]Gleisgewehr subsequently has two modes:[list][*]Sanft Modalität: Only pure magic slugs are fired, these are non-lethal in nature and are specifically shaped to stun. When enhanced, slugs from Rail Blade are coated in a barrier made specifically to function within AMF environments.[*]Hart Modalität: A lethal, Mass Based Weapon form of Gleisgewehr, banned from normal use by TSAB for that very reason. It works by chambering a ferromagnetic, solid slug from a secondary metal block inside a compartmentalized magazine. Through electromagnetic induction produced from the user's magic and the battery, an internal coil is alternated in frequencies sufficient enough to heat the slug to extreme temperatures while still keeping it in the cylinder. A solenoid is then charged fully, propelling plasma out of the gun at extreme velocities while keeping it cohesive through some form of field.[/list][/list]
Favorite Spells:
[TABLE]Name: | Type: | Description:
Eintlichtsturm | Magic-Enhanced Attack | The most basic of Rail Blade's "spells" is a magically enhanced swing, slash or stab of the blade. The blade is covered in an energetic coat of magic that is meant to forcibly rip through barriers via disrupting their magical make up. Further enhancing the attack is the jettison of energy in the opposite direction of the movement, effectively accelerating Rail into the target
Vertilgenschlag | Magic-Enhanced Attack | Similar to Eintlichtsturm, the blade is coated in energy, only this time taking on an electrical and incredibly high energy attribute. Focusing on both igniting and stunning the opponent (or blowing up an inanimate object) rather than increasing the potential to break through a defense, the blade seemingly catches flame and crackles with energy at the same time. On contact, the energy is released into the target in the form of extreme heat and severe shock.
Reinigung | Support(?) | Several ports open in the metal sections of Elise's Krieg armor, followed by an outward magical burst of energy that looks like a glowing blue steam being released. This can be used as an emergency room clearer or to repel a grabbing opponent, or it can be focused and used to propel Elise
Kampfschild | Barrier/Cage | An octagon shaped barrier that can be extended into a full octahedron, the protection level varies greatly depending on how much mana is put into it. Due to the nature of Fehrdi people, the actual magical theories behind personal barriers is rather weak, making for a somewhat ineffective barrier. Interestingly enough, in its Octahedron shape, Kampfschild can be used to surround an enemy and trap their movement momentarily.
Bombeschutz | Barrier | The much more effective, if not exponentially more mana/energy intensive barrier. This one uses the same magical theory put into the shielding of the Habitation Domes, only scaled to a single person's output. Still, it's quite an impressive shield.[/table]

Personality: The typical Fehrdi soldier is known to be morose, taciturn, and all too willing to accept sacrifices, even if they themselves are the sacrifice. They're a grim bunch that think almost exclusively of the defense of their homeworld and its history of civil war, and the war that it had also lost against a now-forgotten civilization from another planet. Of these traits, Elise is only taciturn. That is, she's polite and quiet, and really isn't one to waste words on most things. She isn't an incredibly emotional person in the outward sense, and she seems the type to hold quite a good deal of secrets, hers or those of others. Either way, Elise isn't emotionless, and she doesn't carry the fatalistic grimness of other Fehrdi soldiers, which is a large reason why she was able to become a Contract Mage and pass the examinations and screenings that preceded the title.

She has a habit of taking the occasional deep breath, and closing her eyes to face upwards so she can open her eyes again and face whatever sky is available at the time, perhaps because the Habitation Domes don't even have an artificial sky to give its citizens a glimpse of what they're missing. Still, her personality is complicated enough that internal struggles and the occasional "girl moment" can occur.
Outward Disposition: When it's said that Elise isn't emotionless, this is very much true. While she normally maintains a very passive, even disturbing air of lacking expression toward others, which is a rather common trait amongst the Combat Oriented artificially created humans that make up the Fehrdi Military, she does go through a full range of emotions in her mind, just taking a lot of pushing or "getting to know her" to get her to express said emotions. Needless to say, Elise is actually a very caring person, and is incredibly polite when she can be, and blunt at some other times. In a short description, one could call her the "Quiet Honors Student" Type of girl, or perhaps the kind that would make an excellent "Class Representative".
Personal History: Five years of actually being self-aware and alive aren't really much to build any entertaining or strong story on. Elise was "activated" at the age of ten, already having learned many of the basics of life on Fehrdi, as well as the basics of combat through the various programs the Stasis Tubes carried. The next five years after her birth were more advanced things, such as her somehow in-built determination to NOT be on Fehrdi, and the leadership, personal attributes and charisma that were required to take leave from her homeworld. It was reasonably common knowledge to Elise that she was just a genetic construct based on the DNA of some distant progenitor, but having no memories or goals or inheritance from that person, and no real directive in her Hab Dome other than to protect it from nothing in particular and keep the peace, ennui was something that was quickly onset upon her.

Quick to learn other tricks that her contemporary allies didn't know, and quick to join an officer program to increase her rank to unlock a few new spells, Elise was well-off and rose high enough to take the TSAB Contracted-Mage Examination, which she passed with exemplary ease. Now stationed away from Fehrdi and away from the guilty rambling and fatalistic grim darkness of her homeworld, the sometimes naive, sometimes off-puttingly stoic Combat Cyborg has been touring the dimensions under marque of the Bureau.
