I'll be going on a two week vacation starting tomorrow and don't know how often I'll have Internet access. Thank you for your patience. I'll try to be more regular when I get back.
Name: Lexus Dominiel Nicknames / Titles / Alias's: High Inquisitor Age: 777 Gender: Male
Height: 6'6" Weight: 30 lbs Build: A skeleton. Appearance:
Lexus Dominiel has the form of a skeleton dressed in holy raiment, whether it be crusader-like armor, inquisitorial robes, or vestments befitting a high priest. In all iterations, he is heavily bejeweled, with the jewels even forming parts of important facial features such as the eyes, nose, teeth and beard:
Personality:
Lexus Dominiel has completely embraced the idea that devils came from angels and pompously sees himself as some sort of equal but opposite counterpart to those celestial, divine messengers. He is deeply philosophical and manipulative, driving lesser minds mad with pedantry, sophistry and circular logic. Lexus takes great joy in corrupting the pious with arrogance, ignorance, desperation, and power. Fanatically loyal to Morelion, Lexus is a pedagogue and expects the same devotion from his underlings and will not tolerate insubordination of any kind.
Specialty:
Diplomacy, subterfuge, and magic. Lexus has the ability to corrupt the most powerful forces for good either into oppressive, close-minded regimes, or disorganized masses of hate and violence. He specializes in preying on the universal weakness of all sentient minds: the inability to self-criticize, and seeks out those in high positions, often acting as an echo chamber to amplify their irrational fears and biases. For this reason, he has mastered speech, religious philosophy, as well as fire magic for combat, light magic for disguises, and even holy magic.
Dominating Trait/Sin: Fanaticism
Background:
Lexus Dominiel claims to be responsible for several devastating racial and religious crusades that had flared up in Shal'var's history, though he has little proof of this other than the mass of holy relics and religious artifacts that he has managed to hoard in his castle. Though capable enough at leading his own forces, he has sought time and time again for something to believe in, and has offered his fealty to several great devil lords in the past, only to eventually leave their employ, either by escape or by exile. Lexus has a history of not getting along with other devils due to his arrogant, pompous nature, and his tendency to use holy magic, which most devils see as an inexcusable threat. But it is this use of holy magic which has allowed him to maintain his territory, despite having antagonized many of his neighbors.
One day he slipped into Morelion's domain in the guise of a simple undead magician and served in his army. One day, out of the blue, he revealed himself to Morelion and swore fealty. Something about the way Morelion carried himself and led his forces sparked a fervent, undying loyalty in Lexus, who has served as Morelion's general and adviser since.
The Courier's mention of bringing Din home with him to help grow crops made Din wonder about herself. Her whole life had been more focused on how not to abuse her powers and how not to let others abuse it, rather than applying it for the greater good. Granted, Hyrule, when in balance and at peace, was a land of plenty, so perhaps there was no reason for her to use her powers other than to simply allow the natural cycle of the seasons to continue. In Hyrule, her duty was inaction, but perhaps in this land thrown into madness, her duty was to intervene with the power that the Goddesses had granted to her.
And as the green dinosaur and large beetle approached, Din thought about something else. Not only should she use her powers for good, but she should also seek to acquire more through the strange rules of spirits that this world followed, as many of her allies had done, though she she still had her doubts about it. She wondered if these creatures could be tamed into pets or allies, but thinking about the dangers they faced made her pull back from that thought; she didn't want to see these two cute animals harmed.
Instead, she cast the spell of spring on a patch of grass and, concentrating a little harder, had the grass weave itself into a basket. She made two baskets, one for herself, and one for the Courier, who had stated his intention to harvest more ingredients. Din felt that it was about time they joined the others at dinner, but after all the warzones, scrapyards, and nonsensical floating blocks, it was calming to stay in the garden just a little while longer, she could bring this basket with her as an apology for being late.
Eventually, Din had filled her basket out with an assortment of fruit and decided to head back to the main hall where the feast was already well underway. Smiling at the group, she placed the basket of fruit on the table closest to whoever seemed the most enthusiastic, and got some food for herself. She peered over at the enlarged map, and listened on the conversation. However, at the suggestion that the party split up, Din had to interject, "I think we should stick together. When we faced our last opponent, there were over a dozen of us, yet we lost two. We can only assume that the others will be as strong, if not stronger. If we split up, we risk losing more allies."
"Red Hero of Justice, Ebiranger Red, has arrived!"
— Ebisugawa Hyouka, while switching between poses
NAME
Ebisugawa, Hyouka (蝦夷川 砲火)
GENDER
Female
AGE
14 - 10th of May
APPEARANCE
Height: 4'10"
Weight: 130 lbs
Fashion Sense:
Hyouka tends to dress very casually when not in uniform, most of the time sporting sweatpants and some t-shirt with a weird design or mascot character. She also wears black rubber claw-gloves with bumps and various attachments for interacting with everyday human objects, lovingly made by her father. Hyouka enjoys IP merchandise from her favorite genres and loves displaying said merch whenever given the opportunity. Her aesthetic resembles that of a middle school fanboy for all things shounen. The only thing she really lacks is video game merchandise because her hands are not conducive to playing games, so she never really got into them.
Distinguishing Features:
Hyouka is short for her age, often getting mistaken for a middle schooler. She has long, straight, red hair that goes down to her calves, and guarded, red eyes. Long antennae sprout from the top of her head, while her skin is covered in patches of rust-red shell. Instead of hands, her arms end in pincers, with her left being larger and bulkier than her right.
PERSONALITY
Shy and introverted, Hyouka is an otaku who likes nerdy, boyish things, like Super Sentai, Ultraman, Godzilla movies, Cantonese Kung Fu movies, and giant mecha anime. She has poor self-awareness and loses herself to excitement when it comes to her hobbies or when doing 'heroic' deeds. This makes her appear to switch between an 'outgoing' side and a 'shrinking violet' side. Growing up in a world where quirks are reviled, and mutation quirks in particular are demonized, Hyouka has attempted to close herself off from the ridicule by embracing isolation. Yet her spirit continues to burn with fiery heroism. In a field dominated by exemplars of the human form, Hyouka seeks to prove that even Saturday morning cartoon monsters can be heroes.
HISTORY
Her parents immediately knew something was wrong when a soft, translucent egg was born instead of an infant. Though they had never really had to think about relationships between normal humans and those with quirks, the birth of their child made them reevaluate their worldview. Fortunately, they decided to embrace their daughter, and learn tolerance for others among her new and unique kind.
Because of her unique hands, her mother kept her away from house chores, so her father taught her to participate in his hobbies, where her destructive, 'fat fingers' were less of an issue. Through this she was able to develop passable levels of manual dexterity, though she needs to resort to wearing special rubber gloves that provide her with some form of grip in order to deal with various everyday objects. But because of these closer interactions with her father, she picked up on many of his favorite forms of media, becoming a bit of a tomboy and a daddy's girl. She became enamored with hero shows, and because her parents treated her as their precious little princess, she had never considered how others would react to her appearance until she entered school.
In school, she didn't understand why kids avoided her or talked about her behind her back, or why teachers often turned a blind eye to kids who bullied her. Everything came to a head during a class in which all the students took turns standing in front of the class and read aloud their essay on what they wanted to be when they grew up. Hyouka announced loudly and proudly that she was going to be a hero, like the ones from TV shows and cartoons. The other students jeered, calling her Baltan-seijin, and that she would never be a hero. She ran home in tears and binge-watched her favorite shows, realizing the sheer number of clawed, arthropod-like aliens, and that to the rest of the world, she looked just like these monsters. Though her parents tried to encourage her, she closed herself off from her peers, allowing the hurled insults to roll off her shoulder. Over time, with no friends and no after-school activities, Hyouka began spending more and more time at home, going to school only for her mandatory studies.
To keep her engaged, her father started encouraging her to try various feats with her quirk, filming her, and posting videos online, resulting in playlists like the "Hydraulic Pinch Channel" and "Shrimp Tail Parkour", in which Hyouka pushes the limits on what she can crush with her claws and uses her massive tail to aid in ridiculous jumping feats. Online, things that were not socially acceptable found their niche, and behind the barrier of silicon, Hyouka was allowed to be herself, reviving her hope in one day pursuing her dream. But the family, who believed in peace between those with quirks and those without, felt that vigilantism was not only dangerous, but technically unlawful, and that the ideal hero worked in accordance with the law instead of outside of it. So when the announcement of a brand new school specifically for training heroes came up, Hyouka knew she had to apply.
MUTANT CLASS QUIRK - Shrimp!
Short Quirk explanation:
Does whatever a shrimp can! She has powerful, crushing claws and a powerful tail that helps her jump high in the air and swim rapidly. She can breathe underwater, plates of red shell pepper her skin, providing some protection, and overall, she has greater than average strength for a human her size. Long antennae sprout from the top of her head, are sensitive to smell and touch, and aid her otherwise clumsy fingers.

Themes:
Physical Drawbacks:
Of particular note is Hyouka's extreme lack of manual dexterity, as she has pincers instead of hands. She has special gloves and other handicap equipment for dealing with everyday objects like doorknobs, eating utensils, computer keyboards, and her cell phone. She has to use spoons and forks like a barbarian instead of the more culturally refined chopsticks.
Eating Habits:
Hyouka was taught from a young age that heroes were not picky about their food and always ate their vegetables so they could grow up to be strong, so Hyouka has always had a fairly healthy and nutritious diet. She isn't a health nut, and does like her occasional snack or junk food, but she never loses self-control, or let her cravings consume her. Her one weakness is sour foods, while she is fine with a dash of vinegar or lemon and lime added for flavor, excessively sour foods is not something she can handle. Seafood of any sort is her favorite.
Hygiene Habits:
Hyouka was taught from a young age that heroes required self-discipline. Due to her clumsy fingers, acts personal hygiene, like tooth brushing and applying soap when washing, were difficult. But her parents taught her to push through and overcome the difficulty in order to develop self-discipline. So Hyouka now has very regimented self-care routines. She's not afraid of getting dirty, because she knows she'll clean herself up, but messy behavior, like dropping crumbs on the floor, is one of her pet peeves.

"It's not 'winning' or 'losing' that bothers me, it's the potential for sabotage, and others getting in the way of our task because they think heroes are supposed to fight each other for glory or something?" Mari said with disdain evident in her voice, "Anyways, the strength of your limbs is impressive, Mori-san, and we hopefully won't need speed, since Hayakawa-san's quirk should be perfect for deterring any would-be chasers. As for climbing, it definitely seems like a good idea. I was afraid that our team lacked reconnaissance, but it seems that I am mistaken. We should probably head to a central location along our route..." Mari pointed to somewhere on the map to show the others, "...and have you climb a tree there to get the best vantage of our designated path. Meanwhile, I might just scout ahead and keep you two updated via text if I see anything. I guess we can start getting ready." Mari begins to head towards the start of the white path.
Mari actually compliments her teammates' quirks and Yasu's offer and ability to climb. Creates a simple scouting plan, and a potential escape plan.
Based on his answer, Handel could only assume that even if Arafael had not exactly fallen for her ruse, she had implanted enough doubt to at least stay his hand. Granted, what she said about Marine ranks and power was not entirely true; though rank and power often correlated, there were obviously exceptions. It could be that Arafael was stronger than her. But as he drew her attention to the docks, she could only comment, "That's...not one of mine...?" Handel left the safety of the doorway and headed to the side of the ship, leaning over the railing, looking at Coyote. Deciding that adding a little chaos in the form of an 'unknown element' might disrupt the good lieutenant's plans, Handel called out to Coyote, "Yo! Welcome to the Brown Isles. You seem lost. I just got here myself. Watching the boat for my crew. They should be back soon, and I'm sure they can tell you whatever you need to know about the island. It's just me and my dog, Scruffy, up here on deck. Say 'hi' to the nice man, Scruffy."
