Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

I mean I don't know, if a five man team was over the top enough to spark debate surely a nuclear warhead wouldn't even be considered, no?

RWBY - Only the "Finest"

Noël is best girl

“That’s correct, I’d like to give you the money so that you may buy your town's independence.”

-Noël Du Acier

Name:
Noël Du Acier

Race:
Human

Gender:
Female

Age:
19

Nationality:
Atlesian

Team:
BANK

Designation:
Assassin/Brawler

Appearance:

Noël Du Acier

Personality:

Noël is one of the kinder members of Bank. She is best described through her hard-working demeanor, her greed for money and her absolute devotion to her team. Her hard-working attitude comes from when she was just seven years old. Eleven years ago her parents lost nearly everything they had. She was put to work, trained by the best blacksmiths Atlas and two lives worth of favors could afford her. While she is no master blacksmith herself. She is a woman who was raised by a forge. She knows the ins and outs of smithing like a second language. She has worked tooth and nail to help her parents regain both the finances and the status they once held so dearly, while they aren’t truly there – they’re one their way.

Noël’s greed for money while incessant isn’t born purely out of sin and fear of poverty. Instead it has a slightly more noble birth. When her father first lost all of his money Noël has fond memories of their long days in the forge. One of those days he picked her up with his mighty log-like arms and heaved her onto his shoulder. He didn’t meet her wondering gaze, instead the fire was reflected deep in his iris. “Only the fools die rich Noël.” He said to her. “Get as much capital as you can in your life, spend what you must, what you’d like to, and then give it all away.” She has held that mantra very close to her heart ever since.

Noël’s team means quite a bit to her, though for her sake and their own she doesn’t make it known all too often. They got together only eight months ago, but even in that short amount of time they are a highly cohesive unit. She, Brennan, Albert, and Kek all spent the first few months dictating ways in which they’d rather be spending for time. But as push came to shove and the team couldn’t find words that sounded better than Bank – Brennan became the team leader. As soon as that decision passed over an air of ease settled over the team. It only took them three months as well.

Skills:
Noël has been taught since a young age to wield her two weapons a bow and arrow and a staff. Some of the best trainers Atlesian money can afford.

An incredible blacksmith for her age.

She utilizes a bow primarily for the stigma levied commonly against archers – primarily that they are weak in close range combat. Surprising them with her talent in utilizing her staff in close range combat attributing to many of her victories.

Financially stable, but in comparison to her teammates rather poor.

Weapons/Equipment:
Evangile de la Richesse (as pictured in her appearance): Noël’s weapon of choice is deceiving on many fronts. She typically carries it on her back, it appears to be a wooden stick. However it is actually made of steel. She typically utilizes it as a staff but is able to fire arrows from it using her dust strings. These strings form as Noël performs the motion of drawing a bow, otherwise they do not form. This works via a connection to Noël’s glove that forms the string between the tips of the staff. She uses dust arrows as well in order to create multiple effects. She has these tied so they hand around her lower back. The effects that an individual arrow can produce are: a stream of water along the trail of the arrow (moving at the same speed and direction as the arrow), a gust of wind following the arrow and spiraling outwards from its landing position, a constant stream of fire produced from the shaft of the arrow, and using earth dust, the ability to shatter ground that it comes into contact with as long as it is in the form of some dirt/mineral compound.

Semblance:
(Working title) Problèmes D’aujourd’hui: Noël once fully enveloping an object in her aura is able to make replications and considerable amounts of them at that. However, she may also utilize dust in place of her aura to replicate objects. Most commonly she uses her dust arrows, mid-flight or otherwise.

History:
Working on it

Relations with other characters:

Brennan: The leader of her team – Brennan and Noël have an odd relationship. It could be defined as a rivalry, but that suggests and animosity that is simply no longer present for these two. They work well in combat with one another and Noël trusts his orders in a fight completely. He guides where her arrows will fall and where her staff will strike, and she wouldn’t have it any other way. Casually, he sometimes tells her to shut up – as do the rest of her team, but she doesn’t really mind as she talks a lot and tends to speak her mind too frequently. She also tends to find herself cooking for her team whenever she can, she worries they don’t eat very well let alone regularly.

(Subject to change) Albert: To Noël, Al is sort of like combining the financial sense of a business mogul with the tact and care of a surgeon. He tends to know exactly what the team needs and in turn Noël. Whether he decides to actually give Noël or the team what it needs is a case by case study. She finds that Albert is another strong tactician on the team and when Brennan is either too preoccupied or some form of improvisation is required she knows that Albert is well aware of the situation. Something Noël found confusing at first but later one nice about her teammate was that while he was quick to tell her to shut up like the rest of her team, he was very quick to defend her.

Kek: Noël knows the Tarik family well due to their owning of the major railroad systems in Atlas. Their reaches extend greatly across Remnant and that feeling extends to Kek. Always the quieter member of BANK at first Noël feared what he may be thinking, scheming. One spring eve Kek and Noël were walking home from a training session, they lived about the same way from the academy. A young man approached Noël scoffing to himself at her family’s misfortune, Kek perked up and shot the offender a look that could kill. “Shut the fuck up.” He said, and the boy did. Immediately after he turned back to Noël and grimaced at her. “I really think that I should be the leader, how are any of us going to get around without railroads?” That time, Noël didn’t remind him that there was transportation by air.

Extra:
Bakes a mean butterscotch cinnamon pie.
Will roast you with the intensity of a thousand suns.
Resident hype man of team BANK.
Refuses to wear plaid on plaid.

RWBY - Only the "Finest"

@Raijinslayer
"Sorry old man. You're talking to the big companies themselves. Each one of Atlesian's financial elite is standing in front of you. Each of us have earned our spot in that title - and this tournament. Your 'probably's' and 'most's' are nice, but don't apply to us. If you lack the tact to deal with simple businessmen than I don't fear what you can do in a fight. As for the Schnee company that does not concern myself. If you refuse to use the best dust then I don't see why you're masochistically impeding on our tournament. Don't worry, I'll be sure to see that you're on the third wave of Vytal Tournament Merchandise: Senior Special - Carter Auranus."

Do note the description of the semblance.

They are replications, not decoys. Also she can only do this to inanimate objects. She can essentially create a clone of an object if it is imbued with dust or she can envelop it in her aura.

RWBY - Only the "Finest"

@Kouki

Yeah that's not an issue. She won't be creating clones of anything complex anytime soon. No time bombs or clocks or anything. Mainly just arrows.

@pyroman

Just so that you're aware - @Plank Sinatra, myself and two others are making an Atlas team. It's been posted much earlier, but the OOC moves pretty quickly.

@SilverDawn oh that's no problem! Just thought I'd check in :)
