Solace In Night [Signup/OOC]

[Piercing Light]

Re: Solace In Night

Name: Shizuka
Age: 17
Gender: Female

Personality: From afar Shizuka seems like a steadfast wall of cool headedness. She speaks in a calm and refined manner, and when not in motion she appears elegant, as if holding a pose for a renaissance artist. That is only the impression she gives off however, much like an abstract mosaic painting the finer details of her personality come to light once you really become accustomed to her. Her mature and silky smooth voice gives her an air of seriousness that betrays her rather odd and naïve nature. Because of this it is rather difficult to know just what will get a reaction out of her. She disregards many things she sees as ‘boring,’ yet at the same time has an endless curiosity. She’s actually aware of this, and makes minor strides as to not appear aloft or rude.

Shizuka has a habit of making friends in odd ways, often believing someone to be her friend while they are left out of the loop. This results in her behaving overly friendly around people, as if it were normal to engage in personal conversation with someone she hardly knows. Believe it or not she’s aware of this as well, to her the line between stranger and ‘friend’ is a thin one.


Appearance: Shizuka stands at a height of 5'11, a highly above average height for her age and gender. She possesses a rather regal demeanor, even if it stops at simply being physical. Her skin tone is akin to a ripe peach. She has sleek raven hair, styled in what she considers a 'princess' do. It is cut evenly just above her eyebrows, otherwise it falls in an unthreaded tapestry all the way to her thighs. She is very fond of her hair, if she ever has her hands free then she'll more often than not be taking care of it. Her eyes are a light shade of blue, resembling the tone of a morning sky. Her gaze is nearly always slightly slouched giving the impression that everything around her is copacetic. Occasionally her eyes may widen in childish delight, somehow making her look a lot younger than she is. She has a button nose, it's place on her face is so subtle that it seems as if it were an afterthought in her creation. Her cheeks are vaguely puffy, just enough that when she smiles tiny dimples are made.

Shizuka dresses quite extravagantly, with a penchant for frilly dresses and skirts. She always looks as if she's about to head out somewhere important, though if you bring that up she'll swear that she is only dressing 'casually.'


Faction: none... for now

Weapon: N/A

Powers/Abilities: Matter Manipulation

This is an ability that allows Shizuka to alter the properties of matter via direct touch, as well as alter her own body's structure. Once she touches something her body 'learns' of it's properties, it's elemental composition, it's texture. This happens without her knowledge, as there is no outstanding indication. Whatever object she is in contact with is subject to sudden changes. A hard material such as stone can take on the features of rubber, granted she has 'learned' the composition of a rubber object. That same stone can be made as brittle as a wooden pencil, making it easy to break even the hardest of materials. Her body is capable of going through similar changes, albeit less dramatic in nature. If she were to say change her arm, it could become nearly as flexible as a rubber band, or as hard as an anvil.

Name: Acesto AKA Ace
Age: 18
Gender: Male

Personality: Ace is a reserved kid. He doesn't talk much, and when he does it tends to be brief. He occasionally speaks more, however he only does so when he believes a strong point must be made. He carries himself with an air of maturity not seen often in kids his age, which shows in how he perceives and treats others. He always approaches people in a calm and kind manner, and has a knack for getting on everyone's good side. He is pretty much incapable of telling a lie as he believes they just create more trouble in the long run, and he can be counted on to keep a promise. He doesn't like hurting others, and will try anything to resolve a conflict without casualties. Even if the person is his worst enemy, Ace will still find room for sympathy. Ace's kind attitude can also be his bane. He puts too much pressure on himself to succeed, and often becomes depressed if he lets someone down. He can also be stubborn if he sees things in a different light than someone else, and while he is a logical thinker he will not accept any solution that threatens someone's well being.

Appearance: Ace stands at 5''8 tall and he has a tan skin complexion. His hair is long enough that it falls just above his shoulders, and is colored a dark auburn. His hair is usually let loose, though he takes care of it so it keeps its natural sheen. His eyes are a piercing aqua, and rather narrow. They are the first thing people tend to notice when they see him. He has a timid yet determined gaze, as if he knows to take things in stride. The rest of his facial features are soft and non-threatening, a complement to his gentle nature. He has an almost androgynous curvature to his face, with a non-threatening jawline and subtle nose and mouth. His body is fit though he’s not muscle-bound, he does a lot of cardio training so he has a high amount of stamina. As for his clothing he tends to wear very baggy clothes. He doesn’t like to have his movement restricted.

Faction: Unbound Hearts

Weapon: A simple katana, sheathed in a worn sheath. A chain hangs on the end of the hilt, the very end of which is broken.

Powers/Abilities: Uncanny spacial awareness:

Strictly speaking, Ace is able to detect and react instantly to any disturbance within fifteen feet of his body. It does not matter who or what it is, he will be able to detect it without fail. If he deems whatever he has detected to be a threat, then he is able to pinpoint it's location and strike with impeccable accuracy. He does this using an advanced form of Iaijutsu, the art of drawing the sword. The draw of his blade is swift, moving so quickly that his blade breaks the sound barrier and creates a sonic boom. Acesto's fighting style is simple, however it has been honed to perfection.

Re: Solace In Night

I'd go the extra mile and add a biography but considering I always explain my character's situation regardless, I'll leave it out. Replacing Asagi is Connor unless I decide to use both.

Spoiler Show

Name - Connor Owens

Age - 25

Gender - Male

Faction - Unbound Hearts eventually.

Appearance - Connor stands at 6’0 and despite his young age looks much more mature in facial appearance and stance. His body is a common pale color but it is lined with muscle from head to toe, and his physical skills are easily understood with them. They are lean and don’t weigh him down, but there is just enough exposed by his forearms to imply that he is one of the last people you’d want to get into a fist-fight with. For clothing he wears a plain black muscle t-shirt that clings very closely to his torso. For pants they are a plain black color and are fit comfortably without being too tight, shoes being only black combat boots that aren’t very large on his feet. When in a more civilian role, he keeps a grey jacket on him that is zipped or unzipped accordingly.

He has short straight dark brown hair with very sharp brown eyes, and a very masculine appearance altogether. Though he is often in combat for his organization or for himself, his scars are almost nonexistent on his forearms and face, leading one to think he’s rarely touched at all.

Personality - Strong in body and mind, Connor is a very dependable and confident individual who enjoys accomplishing his goals. He is a natural leader and is very capable of inspiring those around him, as well as discouraging if need be. Proficient in combat, he will often try to avoid confrontation if he could help it, knowing that his chances in combat improve when he’s far out of reach and sight of the target. Skilled as he may be, he does not like taking risks until he’s absolutely certain they must be taken, but he will often challenge himself when the risks are solely dependent on him. He isn’t arrogant, but he is very confident in his skills.

Due to some past small-time work as a young but capable mercenary, there are two thing’s that disgust him during combat; civilian hostages, and bribes. Though war and battle often deem it necessary to act in the best interest to preserve ones life, that doesn’t mean he will always approve of how far someone will go. He believes that innocent people must be left alone in all conflicts, as they didn’t ask to be involved in fights. With that being said, he’d hate engaging in any kind of fight in a heavily populated area. Connor is morally good, and hates all things unjust.

Unfortunately, there are people who wouldn’t see things as he does.

He isn’t beyond killing those who would go on to kill others, but will bring someone in alive if he is determined to have them rot for the rest of their days. From his perspective its not cruelty, it gives the true evil in the hearts of men and other beings the punishment they would deserve; pure isolation. Often times, death is too good for people, but death may often be the only option for those too unstable to keep alive. He has a strong sense of ‘true’ justice, and sometimes it causes him to make calls no one else would.

Friendship is important to him, and though he is thought of as a marksman he isn’t beyond entering the combative field and fighting alongside those he deems comrades and friends. If he is willing to fighting and die beside you, it is then that he’ll deem you a true friend and/or a respectable comrade. Because of his experience in a more ‘professional’ world and environment, Connor will not always take things lightly. Because of this, it is usually difficult to make new friends who don’t share his views or experience in combat. He is a warm person at heart, but sometimes he cannot always be warm. With the experience on his side, Connor sorely dislikes childishness and thoughtlessness.

He is a true friend and ally to the very end.

Spoiler Show

Equipment -
Combat Vest - A black vest that stores many of Connor’s gadgets and supplies. Within it he keeps some of what he needs to operate. Supplements, listening devices, earpieces. It may also store spare arrowhead’s in case maintenance is needed on another. It almost appears as if it’s a bulletproof vest and considering the materials that make this vest durable, it may as well be. It is only made to store combat and survival essentials and the pockets are small enough to support that idea.

Earpiece - A small dark audio device that allows the wearer to communicate over long distances with others wearing similar devices or with the main hub. The device is small, incredibly small at that, being a little under a pea in size. It is near impossible to notice unless you look directly into the wearer’s ear. Applying minor pressure to the earpiece will allow communication. Despite its incredibly small size it is incredible at picking up and receiving audio. Technology at its finest. May also be remote short-circuited and cut off from the network if suspect to being stolen if not retrieved.

Throwing Knivesx5 - Flat handle with an even thinner silver blade, these are intended for quick and silent kills from a short to mid range distance. If not stored in the vest, can be easily concealed anywhere on the users person.

Silenced Handgun - A black handgun with an attachable silencer at the very end. Carrying at least one spare clip at all times. Ten round magazine and a very sleek design. Dead before you even know he’s there.

Quiver - A very durable quiver that is mechanized in appearance. It can hold up to a maximum amount of 60 arrows, 45 normal, 15 ‘special’. Utilizing his intelligence to memorize the location of his secured arrows at all times, Connor is capable of pulling out any he needs without any looking. Secured by an adjustable strap, the arrows are protected from spilling out when gravity comes into play, and can only be retrieved by the pressure of a marksman’s touch demanding the need for another arrow. It is an onyx color with a circular design.

Normal Arrows - A very sharp tip followed by very tiny sharp hooks along its small shaft, the arrow is designed for maximum penetration of a target and has even been known to penetrate through bone. It’s entry is just as dangerous as its retrieval, as taking it from a body or object is difficult as the hooks are meant to make the process painful and difficult. These arrows are designed for ‘certain kill’ by drawing out as much pain and blood as possible before its pulled out, if at all. The feathers of the arrows are normally black.

Special Arrows - Arrows used to fit a certain situation, Connor resorts to these when a situation demands more than pain. The types of arrowheads used may vary on what’s required. Some have flat surfaces, others still have the sharp tips. Because he is always considering new arrows, there is not a complete list of what can be used. These ‘special’ arrows are designed for tactical game changers, such as blinding targets, causing a spray of bullets upon release, releasing an electromagnetic charge throughout circuitry to completely destroy or scramble internal systems. Knockout gas isn’t uncommon either, but listing all possibilities would take time. New arrows are being designed frequently.

Collapsible Bow - A collapsible recurve-style bow, it is black in design and the activation of it is pressure-based, needing the proper amount of force to open and close for battle or storage. That is normally something the marksman himself sets up so only he knows how to work it. It is very average in appearance, but the material used to craft it are highly durable. As such, it’s unique in the sense that it can parry strikes despite not designed to handle that type of stress against it. Also, you don’t want to get smacked in the face with it.

Sunglasses - Unbridled badassery.

Spoiler Show

Powers/Abilities/Skills -

Expert Marksman - Having trained with ranged weaponry since an early age and sticking with it as a hobby, whether automatic or manual, Connor excels in taking down targets from a distance. Bows, Crossbows, Rifles, name the ranged weapon and he can more than likely use it as though it is second nature to him. Though long or mid-range is obviously the most preferred method of attacking, his proficiency allowed him to learn to adapt, and as such he may fire in close quarters very well if the situation calls for it. His skill with a bow allows him to quick-draw arrows from his quiver, thus reloading on his shots very quickly, not wasting any time. Considering his bow skills a dying art, he’d much prefer it over firearms when at all possible.

Hand-to-Hand proficiency - Any simple opponent would be wise enough to believe ‘If I get close, he’ll be less effective!’. Wrong. Connor has exceptional hand-to-hand capabilities and is not afraid to resort to them if need be.

Throwing Weapon proficiency- Not only an incredible shooter, Connor is also amazing at using throwing weapons such as the classic tomahawk or the more modern throwing knife. Precise throws to vital areas are not uncommon from him.

Physical Conditioning - Connor is in peak physical condition, allowing him to push his body to the limits and beyond when it is required of him. Not only is he acrobatic and swift in combat, he can also handle long periods of running if a target needs to be chased after. As expected of him, he is always at the top of his game and does not have any noticeable weaknesses in any physical area. There is plenty of upper body strength as well as lower, allowing him to easily carry himself across the field and pull off very acrobatic maneuvers despite his equipment and build.

Information Gatherer - When he is not preparing to take out a target, Connor excels in gathering information. His sharp eyes may notice very subtle movements across the body, the arms, legs, even the lips, allowing some skill in lip reading. Not only are his eyes good, but his ears do just as well to pick things up if he focuses all his sense into listening to something. He is an ideal watcher and listener. As it is, he also knows how to somehow slip away once he draws too much attention. Considered very virile by female colleagues, his physical attractiveness can help him in information gathering as well.

Hunter’s Mark - Establishing a single target or multiple targets, Connor is a watchful hunter of all things organic. As such, he is absolutely incredible at deciding if a being knows its being watched or is highly nervous, reading its emotional state through its stance, breathing pattern, and step taking. This allows him some minor precognition of what would be to come. As a watchful hunter, Connor’s greatest strength is his sight, which allows him to follow movements. Even if he isn’t looking directly at you, odds are that he’s watching you. His eyes also adjust to light both artificial and natural faster than a normal being, to help him keep up with targets in multiple environments.

Stalker - Connor is capable of stalking his targets quietly and keeping reason for suspicion at a minimum. This means he can tail almost anyone, especially through crowds if not already in a favorable position to monitor the target(s). This works both ways, as Connor too knows if he's being watched closely or being tailed. It's just something he, as a hunter, will be aware of.

Commanding Presence - Although his line of work would often have him moving from a distance, Connor nonetheless exudes an aura of strength and limitless potential. When necessary, his words can give people the push they need to act on a command, or themselves. Regardless of his position, people would usually be willing to follow him if he took charge. He is an amazing tactician and makes it a goal to not let anyone die under his command if he can absolutely prevent it, and he does try.

Extras -

Prefers the company of dependable people.
Has it in him to be very fatherly when he feels an attachment to a junior-age individual.

Re: Solace In Night

Just a heads up, I'm almost done with my second template. Right before I post it, I'll edit my other one to correspond with this one. It'll probably be up later tonight, I'll be relatively busy the rest of the day.

Re: Solace In Night

No problems here, accepted Promise.

Edit: alright then smoofy

 

[Atomic Chicken]

Re: Solace In Night

A character to replace the Luffy Clone.

Spoiler Show

Name: Thomas Randori
Age: 15
Gender: Male

Personality:
Randori tends to be a very care-free and laid-back person. However, he is smarter than the average person and can be a skilled tactician when he wants to be. Randori dislikes depressing or sad people and things, and will usually go out of his way to avoid them. Randori is also able to think one step ahead (especially during dangerous situations) before anyone else does making him quite clever. He does not care much for fighting, though can be a fierce opponent if provoked. While he is confident in his abilities, Randori is not above admitting he's not perfect in combat.

Appearance:
Randori's normal outfit consists of a black sweatshirt with a dark blue wing logo on it, black pants that reach down to well below his ankles, and a pair of dak red sandals. His hair, reaching down to just above is shoulders, is reddish-blonde and somewhat shaggy and unkempt. His is scrawny, with pale skin, and has rather plain face. Randori's eyes are a dark green, and he is almost always relaxed. He stands at a little lower than average height (About 5'2.).

Faction: Neither, currently.

Weapon:
A small, steel dagger housed in a brown sheath that resides on Randori's left hip. It is rarely used.

Powers/Abilities:
Randori has the power to manipulate and create raw darkness. He can use this to attack in a myriad of ways, as the darkness he creates is insubstantial and can be melded into any sort of object or weapon, be it razor sharp or hard as steel. This ability also allows Randori to skillfully control his shadow, and raise it into a copy of himself (Which is a completely pitch-black version of Randori, with glowing purple eyes). This shadow clone has all of Randori's powers and skills, and the two are capable of communicating telepathically, allowing for powerful combination attacks. However, when using this ability, Randori suffers severe weakness when exposed to sunlight. On the other hand, he boasts an impressive resistance to all but the strongest darkness-based attacks, making him essentially immune to attacks from low-to-mid-level Heartless.

Finish the templates peeps..

Re: Solace In Night

Almost finished, I have an essay due tomorrow, so that takes priority, unfortunately. When I was working on the temp last night I forgot I had it assigned.

Ooooooops.

 

[King Naruto]

Alright, Pierce....got my character in mind. You'll get it tonight or tomorrow. I promise that.

 

[Piercing Light]

Alright then King Kitten.... Kittan

lol I shouldn't do that it's better than your other username XD

Edit: Atomic Chicken your character is accepted.

 

[Smoofy]

I put a relative amount of detail into the abilities as I didn't want him to be OP or unfair in anyway.


Also, I'm unsure if I'm over-stepping my boundaries with him being relatively high ranking in the army, but you never said to what extent our characters can be affiliated to the Empire :/ If I am, I can either edit this character if there are multiple problems, or I have another character I could use. Just kinda, testing the waters with this one.

I put quite a bit of time into this to preemptively eliminate issues but... we'll see

Spoiler Show

Name: Soujuu Kensei
Age: 34
Gender: Male

Personality: A cold individual, Soujuu is not one to be trifled with. Generally, he decides not to talk much, unless r in anyway)necessary, oftenly letting his actions speak for him. He is impossible to get along with due to his sinister nature, he believes those of who ally with the Unbound Hearts are scum, and he believes those of neutral standing are even worse as they are incapable and indecisive, and as of such can not choose a side. Unless of course, their neutrality can be swayed.

Soujuu has a "take no prisoners" policy, unless strictly directed to do so. The only people who he actually will listen to are his superiors (of which there are few.)

Soujuu is a man of efficiency in all aspects- Daily life, battle, tea consumption, you name it, he'll find the most efficient and cost effective way of achieving his goal.

He is also a very manipulative man, and that is extremely evident when he interacts with Roy.

Appearance: Soujuu looks far older than he is, with wrinkled skin and dark, piercing eyes. At a glance, his skin composure makes people believe he is of Native-American descent, only slightly lighter. Whether or not this true, he does not know. He has flowing white hair, falling down to the middle of his back. He has a strand on either side of his face that falls down just below his shoulders. He is by no means, attractive. Unless you're into that kinda thing.

Soujuu stands at approximatley 6'1 and has a rather slim build, but from his deceptive appearance, comes abundant strength.

His outfit would lead those to believe he isn't of any notable standing within the army, and he uses that to his advantage. He wears a simple white, cloth shirt with leather shoulder pads stitched on and brown, unassuming pants. More often that not, he is shoeless. Sometimes over his shirt, he wears a leather half jacket (It's the best way I can describe it, it looks just like that jacket-type object you wear over your shirt and under your full jacket when you wear a tuxedo. Halp?)

His outfit is actually enchanted by his own means, and is actually just as tough if not tougher than the most well made armor.

At will, he can summon his full suit of armor. The armor makes him look far larger than he really his but causes a noticeable slowdown to his movement, with the effects lowered to his spellcasting. Alongside this, his simple Katana transforms as well, it now reaches to 150% it's original size and gains other properties explained in the section below.

The armor itself is black as night. It has lines of deep blue around the edges of the various sections of the armor. The shoulder guards are rather large and are actually a seperate piece of the armor, as each one is slightly larger than his head. His legs, due to the size of the armor, seem to almost double in width, this is also true for his torso. When he summons his armor, he can, if he wishes, also don a helmet, which completely obscures his face but leaves vision unaffected. On the side of the helmet, the metal seems to extend backwards, creating a spikes on each side of his head.

The armor grants him special abilities, as explained below.

Faction: The Empire.

Weapon:

Sans Armor:

A simple looking Katana and a Sai, for close quarters combat. The Katana is quite deceitful, at his been constructed out of shadows and manifested into a physical, solid form. The blade isn't actually made of metal and by using his Shadow Manipulation technique, he can transform the weapon by compounding more or less shadow's into the blade, altering it's length and appearance. The Sai does not have these properties.

With Armor:

The Katana transforms with his armor. It becomes far more ornate, with the handle shining a brilliant gold upon first transformation. The hand guard depicts two dragons face away from one another, mouths agape. Along the blade, an intricate pattern of gold seems to be almost sewn through the bottom of the blade. Again, Soujuu can alter the blade's appearance with Shadow Manipulation and as he does, the gold begins to fade to a dull, deep black.



Powers/Abilities:

Ordinary Abilities (Sans Armor):

Limit Removal: Through intense physical training, Soujuu has extraordinary reaction time, this mainly stems from his improved sight in darkness, alongside this, his eyes can read small changes in light to either detect his enemies movements as long as he focuses on them and in some cases it aids him in detecting hidden enemies, but that requires his full attention as well, he basically has to be LOOKING for a disturbance.

Summon Heartless: Soujuu can summon Heartless of varying degree and power due to his stance within the army. The "boss" level Heartless are out of his reach unless given specific orders to use them.

Sight: A passive skill, due to his skill with darkness and shadows, Soujuu can see in the darkness as if it was clear as day. But on the other side of this, quick changes in contrast and light level have greater effect on him than others (Think of it like a bright light flashing while wearing night vision goggles).

Shadow Manipulation: As a deceitful and maniuplative man, Soujuu has deceptive ways of attack. He can manipulate shadows into many forms, such as piercing or crushing objects at his will. This ability allows him to actually pull shadows off of the ground, allowing him to either latch on to projectiles and alter their trajectory, or attack from multiple directions.

Body Possession: Through enhanced training in dark powers, Soujuu has actually devloped the ability to possess and control the abilities of others. This can only be used weak minded persons (generic NPC level) and can only be used on strong minded individuals (player characters) by estabilishing a form of deal with them and lasts until the deal is satisfied. Currently contracted to Roy Senshi. This also allows him to contact the possessee through telepathic means if they hold an object that belongs to him.

Body Channeling: Compounding on top of body possession is the Body Channeling technique. With this, Soujuu can use the body possession skill from a far distance as long as the possessee has an object that belongs to him. In conjuction, the body channeling skill also allows the possessee to use Soujuu's skills (as he is channeling himself and his energy through them). The effectiveness of the attacks varies by distance and other conditions, such as Soujuu's concentration.


With Armor:

Kumori-Ken: A technique Soujuu developed himself. With the armor and with it, his enchanced affinity to darkness Soujuu can manipulate shadows with his blade. He can sharpen the blade by coating it with a shadow, or he can create a wave of blackness that can slice and dice his enemy. This is an enhancement of his shadow manipulation technique.

Body Harvest: With this skill, Soujuu obtains the abilities of Roy (the ones that are not determined by the Fire Emblem, that is) due to the enhanced connection between them in this form.

Rapid Expulsion: Soujuu gathers most of the shadow's or darkness within the vicinity around his body a creates an outward, explosive force from his body. This requires simply requires him to pull his hands to his chest and then throw them outwards. The expulsion can throw back humans a fair distance, potentially cracking or breaking bones, and can ward of mid level attacks. It takes a certain amount of preperation to activate however.

Bio: Soujuu is rather unaware of his past and quite frankly, doesn't care. He would much rather think of the present rather than dwell on the past, as he has things to do. He just knows that he gained strength and power at a young age and developed his control of darkness generally at the same time. Most of his past is a blur but he remembers one night when the Heartless were attacking, he could actually speak to and control them. With this he survived the onslaught and due to the corruption that this link created, he actually participated in the slaughter. The amount he killed or whom remains a mystery to him.

His powers were noticed by the army and he was recruited, soon climbing up the ranks due to his natural combat ability and affinity towards the Heartless and the darkness. He soon found himself in a considerable position of power within the army and constantly leads attacks and assaults against various towns and villages. From his connection to the Heartless and it's corruption of his mind, he learned how to create a link with others and eventually learned how to affect their minds and even take control. This works most of the time on people with low constitution (general NPC's) but can only affect those of a strong will if he makes a pact or deal with them for them to serve under him. This unconscious contract allows him to manipulate, take control and even harnes that person for his own benefit.

His powers are rather detrimental to his health, as is shown by his stark white hair and aging features. He is trying to figure out a way that would allow him to remove the consciousness of an individual and replace it with his own.

 

[Piercing Light]

It's nice to see you putting a lot of work into this Smoofy, but I think you might have overdone it a bit. His abilities by themselves aren't an issue, however him having so many powerful muddies it up. The key here is a 'balance.' You have high tier abilities in near every category. He has many powerful offensive powers, defensive abilities, a healing factor, as well as stealth. You should try to stick with a singular theme, and build onto that, not just build until you've covered every base.

Also, he has two abilities focused on stopping projectiles... was that for Connor? I mean he's like the only guy that specialized in long range attacks.

 

[Piercing Light]

*Ahem* Starting the RP now by the way~ Not a very long intro, but I just wanna split it up so as to not make it too much.

 

[Smoofy]

Connor? What?

Oh.


Promise's template xD I thought you meant an irl person and I was like "wtf mang"


I had those written before Promise wrote the temp, but nope, they weren't intended for him at all lmao.


I'll edit out a few of the powers to balance him out.

Edit: I edited and removed some powers, if there is anything else that needs changing or something you don't agree with, just lemme know.

Edit Edit: With some recommendations from Promise, I changed both of the templates further by removing and altering a few more abilities. As long as there are no more issues, they have REACHED THEIR FINAL FORM.

 

[icmasticc]

Is this still open and accepting? If so, I'd like to join with this character. If not, that's fine.

Spoiler Show

Name:
Julian Vesperatti

Age:
32

Gender:
Male

Personality:
As disciplined as he is classy, Julian exudes the persona of a mature man who takes his role very seriously. Rarely humorous or playful, the Empire affiliate dedicates the best of his ability in all facets of his life. Effectively, he comes across as a dependable and reliable soldier of the Empire while at the same time being a particularly well-mannered and approachable human being when off duty. Julian does not seek to spark fear into the heart of anything but, he does not take kindly to intimidation either. While his speech maintains the most minimal use of profane language, his actions and spirit are wholly able to accurately depict the intensity of his rage, should the man become visibly irate for one reason or another.

On duty, Julian is nothing if not professional. He believes the Empire does not have room for hot-headed, irrational, or otherwise impulsive characters dirtying up its ranks. Attitude and demeanor are important attributes to worry about according to Julian and he tries to uphold his beliefs rather than simply present them to others through unwanted lecture. Socially, the man does know how to loosen up, if only a little and if only during time off the mission. He can be friendly and fun to an extent but, above all else, Julian Vesperatti is a professional, articulate, and disciplined man who appreciates his role within the Empire and does his best to maintain its vision.

Appearance:
Julian stands 6'2 and weighs approximately 180 lbs. His build consists of broad shoulders and a strong chin though his body is not stocky or hulk-like. His musculature is defined and strong though he still remains lean and medium-sized. Julian's muscles are functional rather than aesthetic, so though he is not big, he has trained his body to get the job done. His complexion is a rich caramel color with a black goatee and light brown eyes to compliment. His black hair is usually well-kept, meaning cut and edged up on a daily basis. On his right arm, Julian has a half-sleeve of tribal tattoos and a couple more tribals on his left forearm.

Despite being a part of the Empire, Julian usually does not wear the uniform as he opts for comfort and simplicity. His ensemble usually consists of a simple white T-shirt and Navy blue cargo pants tucked into black combat boots that don't extend as high as other pairs of combat boots. A black leather jacket tops the outfit and, as it was custom made, it is well fitting. Keeping in line with the simplistic theme, Julian does not wear jewelry of any kind or accessories relating to fashion.

Faction:
The Empire

Weapon:
Julian only carries a basket-hilted Claymore for a weapon. The overall length of the weapon is 55 inches with the blade being 42 inches and the grip being 13 inches. The sword is relatively light at 5.5 lbs but, with Julian's strength and skill, he is able to wield the blade one-handed in most situations. The weapon usually rests on Julian's back, favoring his right hand, in a steel scabbard of high quality. A leather strap allows the man to wear the weapon in such a way.

Powers/Abilities:
Sensory Manipulation
-Julian is able to freely manipulate the sensory systems within the human body. This ability is mostly regulated to use on his own person but, he can also alter or manipulate another human's senses through direct contact. Most people only believe there are five senses within the human body when there are really a multitude of senses that some people are not even aware of. Julian is able to control every one of these systems to suit the needs of the situation. Regarding his skill, he can intricately take hold of an individual sense or aggressively assume control of an entire system.

However, Julian is only able to manipulate the sensory systems within the human body alone. Senses that are not akin to the human body are free from his control. This is Julian's main and only special ability. Besides this, he has normal skills that are listed below.

Hand-to-Hand Combat
-Julian is very adept at hand to hand combat. It was the first form of combat he learned and is easily fell back upon if the need arises. His specific style specializes in counters, joint-locks, and aimed strikes. It is not meant to be all out aggressive and savage; rather his style of fighting is calculated, patient, and aware. The calmer one is during combat, the more fierce this fighting style can become.

Swordsmanship
-Much like his hand-to-hand combat, Julian's sword play is very calculated. He normally combines his unarmed techniques with the skill of his sword play to create an elegant yet deadly form of sword fighting. He is just as adept with the blade as he is with his fists.

Name: Ichigo Hiyori
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Faction: Unbound Hearts

Appearance:

Superficially, Ichigo has a quite formidable appearance. He stands at 6’3’’ with a thin yet gaunt frame. His hair is an odd mixture of black and dark red which is a bit lengthy, resting at the base of his neck, avoiding his forehead but is long enough to cover his ears. On the top of his head a very thin strand of hair sticks out a few inches up then curves straight down. Overall, his appearance is unremarkable. If one took a quick glance at him, they would note that he doesn’t appear abnormal or even strange; it would take a second glance, a real deep consideration of how he truly looks to understand who he really is. He is a very handsome man but has boyish looks; he isn’t rugged in any sense and has a more refined air about him. His complexion is of a near perfect peach cream, he has no blemishes or scars to account for and he just looks very nice. He doesn’t look very threatening or suspicious, always serving to wear a very neutral, yet caring, expression.

His eyes are light pink, strangely enough, but are rarely ever seen. He doesn’t keep his eyes half-open or anything; it’s just his glasses get in the way. He wears round glasses with a blue frame, they aren’t ridiculously round but just at the right manner to both complement and obscure his eyes. But yes, as mentioned his eyes are of a light pink and always carry a careful yet unexplainably kind look to them. One may remark because of his glasses that he is intelligent, a strange stereotype understandably. He is intelligent, no question about that, but the reason he looks intelligent isn’t because of his glasses but rather because of how he holds himself. The way he presents himself is with utmost confidence and intelligence, he doesn’t look like the type to engage in conversation but rather sit back and observe people from afar, have no doubts, if he isn’t speaking to you he is definitely trying to figure out what person you are through sheer willpower and analysis.

Ichigo doesn’t look very muscular from his clothing. He wears a simple white coat with a golden collar and bright blue buttons, underneath the coat is a white shirt. His pants and shoes accommodate the bland color scheme. His clothes are always very neat and very proper, mind you he isn’t a neat freak but wishes to present himself in a very considerable fashion. What I mean about his muscular frame is that his clothes are rather big and makes his body underneath appear formless. They are big to the extent where it is difficult gauging what his body type is, he appears very skinny due to how thin his face and neck is, but his body is quite toned.

He isn’t a well-practiced martial artist, which means that he won’t have the body of masters; but his body shows the extent of his own training. It is muscular but isn’t big on volume; instead it is a very slimming body as to prevent restricting any of his movements. He looks like he could do well in a fight, but doesn’t look like he’ll be benching twice his weight.

Personality:

Strong and silent type, would be accurate in describing him. Ichigo doesn’t talk much, he prefers to keep his mouth shut and simply watch others. He isn’t an anti-social person, by any means, he is fully capable of making friends and having lengthy conversations with them, he just rather not waste any breath and only speak if what he has to say is entirely relevant. It isn’t like he doesn’t enjoy talking, in fact he is very, very kind and helpful, always wanting to help out people and putting himself through hell to ensure that whatever problem you’re facing is solved. It is just he is quite reserved with his words, it is an inherent part about his personality; don’t take it as an insult if he doesn’t talk to you, he is just carefully considering his words so that he could speak with the utmost grace and humility.

Ichigo is, as mentioned, a very kind person. He has trouble saying no to people when they ask for help and even when they don’t he wants to jump in to help, to do whatever he can to assist. But he isn’t naïve. Ichigo is actually highly intelligent, genius levels, and can see when helping is entirely futile. He is incredibly humble, preferring not to show off any feats of intelligence or athleticism, preferring to stay in the background and help out from behind the scenes. He has a very strong sense of justice, unable to witness evil and leave it alone, though he isn’t overbearing with that justice and won’t push his beliefs to others. In fact, he is very tolerant, quick to quietly befriending even the worst of people so long as they don’t do bad things.

Following that, Ichigo is actually quite chivalrous. He doesn’t like seeing women getting hurt or even enjoy the prospect of fighting women. He respects women fighters as a martial artist, but would fight to quickly detain the woman rather than to severely injure her. Despite his amazing abilities, he would prefer to “trap” the woman with jiujutsu rather than use his powers to hurt her. If, however, things got out of control, he would have resort to using his higher powers to battle.

Weapon: None

Spoiler Show

Dimensional Rift:

Capable of producing holes within reality, which can then trap the victim within a separate dimension until released by Ichigo. This pocket dimension is under his control and is freely manipulated through him, so, generally the conditions are kept the same as any earthly world. But this power could also be used as a quick escape as he is able to manipulate the spatial and temporal parameters of where he would end up, meaning, essentially, the power of teleportation. This isn’t instantaneous as time between reality and his pocket dimension is still running, so there would be a time period between each teleportation. Also, it has a limit so he isn’t able to teleport anywhere he wants to, he can only go to places he’s seen before. Where he is able to produce pocket dimensions, however, is up to him, if, for example, he wishes to open one within your body and take out your organs, it would be difficult (especially if the target is moving) but possible.

Exemplary Sensory Abilities:

Ichigo is able to sense the “presence” of someone else from a certain distance that is, of course, limited. But if someone were to sneak up to him that has certain abilities of the supernatural vein, he would be able to lock on to their particular signature or “scent” and spot them. This requires concentration, so, in the midst of battle it would be hard to pinpoint someone’s presence. His eyes and ears are superhuman as well, meaning he has impossibly good eyesight and can hear very well, not to extents of omnipresence, but enough to be difficult to sneak up on.

Manipulation of Shadows:

One shadow in particular. Although he can control shadows in general, Ichigo prefers to control his own shadow to spy on others to gain information. Well, actually he doesn’t enjoy spying but Ichigo is poor when it comes to stealth, so a literal shadow would be better for spying. It would instantaneously relay details to him and he would then make assessments from there. He is also capable of producing shadow monsters, weak little grunts, but enough to create a distraction, if needed.

Manipulation of Presence:

Ichigo is able to manipulate his own presence to either stifle it entirely or to create a brand new one. Ichigo is capable of either diminishing or augmenting his aura to present a placid persona or a powerful threat for intimidation. He is also able to displace his presence elsewhere to create the sensation of two different presences.

Name: Aynia Leannán
Age: A lady doesn’t tell (appears 19)
Gender: Female
Faction: Anywhere Ichigo's at.

Appearance:

Aynia is a succubus which allows her to control her appearance to whatever she pleases. This makes it difficult to pin down what she would look like on a daily basis, but she does have a default form. She appears as an eighteen to twenty year old woman in her prime. Her body being the pinnacle of perfection, the most remarkable features about her would be her eyes. They are tantalizingly hypnotic, they’re a bright purple with an almost natural ability to draw anyone who looks at them in. They say the eyes are the window to one’s soul, which is quite true to Aynia. Her eyes are immaculate and simply beautiful, it holds a strange ambiguity to them and is magical, making people see what they desire the most and makes them experience pure happiness.

Her hair is dark with natural curls which gives her a quiet regal look. Her hair is waist-long and cascades down her back elegantly, like the rolling river. She has a small pretty and elegant face, one that seems specifically reserved to be captured in portraits or paintings. Her complexion is of a light peach cream with absolutely no blemishes save an old-fashioned, yet charming rustic, beauty mark on her right cheek. Her lips are small yet perfect with pink lipstick making it sultry in quality, as if tempting you for a kiss. Her hair comes down to her forehead to obscure it, it frames her face perfectly yet leaving her ears and lower jawline exposed. She normally doesn’t wear make-up, and only goes for her lipstick and a very subtle light green eyeshadow.

Her body is certainly mature and shows the extent of pure lust. Ready to seduce anyone who is curious enough about her, she has all of the right curves in all of the right places, keeping a well-toned body so that everything is supple and firm. Her skin is naturally soft and has magical qualities, much like other parts of her body upon contact with her skin will enable a minor mind-control ability that would make the victim succumb to the pleasure of a woman’s touch. Her arms are thin and refined and doesn’t show any characteristics of her having lifted anything heavier than twenty pounds, which is to say she doesn’t have flabby arms; like the rest of her body, they are firm yet soft. With proper hips and legs that go up for miles, Aynia is unmistakably attractive.

The clothes are a different story, they can shape-shift as well, much like she can, and are technically alive. Her clothes look like the shadows themselves wrapped around her body to dress her properly, which isn’t very far from the truth as she manipulated shadows to wear as clothes. She doesn’t have shadow abilities, clothes is the only thing she can make with the shadows. Anyways, the shadows do well to cover up her body yet painfully tease everyone by exposing the best parts of her. She wears a backless, sleeveless top that seems to impossibly hold up and cover her breasts, yet shows off her cleavage. Part of her navel is exposed as the top splits off to show it off and she wears a black and red fluttery skirt that stops a few inches above her knees. There are also knee-high semi-transparent stockings that stop below her knees for that perfect amount of skin exposure in-between the clothing.

Her boots are probably the least sexy part of her outfits but are the most interesting as they have large bat-wings at the end of it, like the sandals of Hermes. Aynia wears black sleeves starting from her wrists to her elbows, they are semi-transparent as well. As for any hair accessories she wears a hair pin that goes over her head, like a crown, in the shape of bats neatly wrapping around her head.

Personality:

Aynia is as expressive as her appearance is. She is a tall, dark sultry woman who realizes just how beautiful she is and isn’t afraid to show it off for any purposes. Which means to say that she superficially appears extremely arrogant of her beauty, which might or might not be true who knows? Aynia isn’t afraid to strut her stuff if she has to, though she normally doesn’t go very far with the strutting, it seems that she is more than willing to do anything for a favor. However, there might be some limitations to that. You see, although Aynia would never reveal her true age, she is quite… “mature” to say the least, so, she wouldn’t just go along with any random guy. Being a succubus with a fantastic longevity, Aynia is quite critical of most guys she comes across. First off: she wouldn’t do anything more than kiss a normal mortal. She has nothing against mortals, she finds them quite interesting to be honest, but she feels that superhuman or strong guys (or gals) would be more worthy of her than any average Joe on the street.

And although she may appear very arrogant, Aynia is actually quite kind and humble. She is very quick to make friends and to have a lot of respect toward those with power or those who show her kindness. To her, showing a kindness is the best way to get to her heart. Her past left her quite vulnerable and distrustful to people, so, she has a soft spot for those who are very kind and befriends them. As a result, Aynia is quite kind toward some people; more specifically, she is very motherly to children and is a nature lover. Aynia is very generous; she doesn’t have any use for money and usually gives them to the less fortunate. Due to her bad past, she goes out of her way to help orphans or just children in general. That meaning she also has very little patience for those who are insanely greedy or just generally cruel to the less fortunate. She doesn’t see herself as some sort of Robin Hood, trying to help the poor, but would still do anything to assist.

Aynia is insanely loyal to her friends, always readily willing to risk her life for their sake and would always burden some sort of trouble herself so that her friends wouldn’t get involved. Although she has a care-free personality, Aynia takes a lot of things seriously. She is the type of person to joke around in order to keep people from worrying about her. She does like to laugh and smile a lot amongst friends, and she loves making other people smile, more specifically younger girls. Aynia believes that a woman should never wear a frown and goes through considerable lengths to ensure that doesn’t happen. Her penchant being make-overs where she would do little things to the victi- er, recipient in order to make their natural beauty come out. Being a succubus, she also has trouble accepting her own natural beauty. Because she is able to shape-shift and alter her form to be “perfect” she is always uncomfortable in her own body because it doesn’t fit with her image of beauty and instead conforms to what others think is beautiful. Aynia has a slight Irish accent, it isn’t very obvious but when she becomes agitated her accent becomes more prominent.

Spoiler Show

Life Drain:

Being a succubus, she has the ability to drain the life energy, or more accurately the soul, of anyone through many means. Usually she could just siphon their strong emotion by being within a close proximity of anyone. That method is usually the safest but doesn’t produce the most energy, she needs to sustain herself properly or she could wither away, so she has other methods to get the energy she needs. One of them is a simple kiss; it gives her a great amount of energy, the other is simply feeding off the frustration or any other strong emotion of anyone. The latter of these methods is the safest and most accessible, she could simply walk into a crowd and siphon the emotion of everyone there little by little until replenished.

Powers of Seduction:

Aynia has incredible powers of seduction which even comes out when she is idle. The moment she is seen, the victim would feel physically, emotionally, and mentally attracted to her, regardless of gender or sexual preference. Her eyes, in particular, are dangerous to look at, as one glance would hypnotize the victim, prolonged exposure would leave the victim love-struck. Her voice is powerful as well, capable of making anything she says entirely suggestible. If, however, she were to kiss you just once, she would be able to make the victim her slave until her hold is broken by an outside party.

Emotional Empathy:

Aynia is capable of reading deep-seeded emotions of a person, she is able to sense those emotions from simply being in the proximity of the person and is able to manipulate those feelings so that she is able to drain them to sustain herself. This also requires her to feel those emotions as well, so she is the most empathetic person ever since she is capable of literally putting herself in someone’s shoes.

Psychic Abilities:

She is able to psychically manipulate someone. Usually by hypnotizing them into doing something or becoming her slave, but she is also able to produce low-levels of mind-control and illusions. Mostly making the person think they are being sexually pleased by her when in reality it is a simple illusion. Generally, it won’t work against someone who already knows of her abilities meaning anyone she has told her powers to as they are not easily advertised but to someone she just met she could trick them with her illusions.

Spoiler Show

Name: Caeley
Age: 22
Gender: Female
Faction: Unbound Hearts, eventually.

Appearance:

Tough as tough can be. Caeley stands at 5’10’’ with an aura that screams “don’t mess with me”. She has fiery red curly hair that falls to the middle of her back, parts over her forehead to expose it, and frames her angular, aquiline face. She has a small, graceful upturned nose that appears almost snobby, her complexion is of a slightly dark, exotic type, evidence of tanning. There is no discoloration or blemishes to tar her face, producing a beautiful expression reserved only for the gods. Her dark green eyes glint perfectly behind her red-rimmed glasses. Her lips are small and dainty, the color of the lightest of pink; beautiful and innocent, it seems.

Her figure is mature and punctuated by her clothes: a formal white buttoned up shirt and a black blazer over top it along with simple jeans and boots. They hug her curves perfectly, showing off her body in a modest, yet deliberate, manner. Caeley, although rather extravagant in terms of body, is quite slim. Thin, moderately toned, arms and legs, a modest stomach with proper sides, supple and ready for the picking as it were. Caeley appears more like a model rather than a soldier, slim, tall body, beautiful face, and an exotic complexion.

In terms of expression, Caeley is a great representation of her personality. She is very straightforward, very stern and very demanding with the look of her eyes. She appears perfectly content commanding others with her presence alone, her thin eyebrows are always kept in some form of a disapproved look, as if you had done something wrong merely by existing. Caeley produces an almost paradoxical appearance, one of regality and one of a powerful soldier, her green eyes are always fixed in an expectant look, as if waiting for you to screw something up so that she may call you out on it.

Personality:

Caeley has a very spartan personality, very frugal and no-nonsense. She seldom tolerates idiocy, in the sense that she doesn’t like when people deliberately make idiotic mistakes when they should know better. However, beneath that cold exterior lies a very caring woman. Caeley is extremely empathetic and loving toward any friends or teammates she comes across, she is the type of woman to want to protect anyone at the cost of her life. She has a very strong and solidified sense of justice, her sense of morality is unbridled. The way she sees things is very straightforward, good people are good, bad people aren’t, and if bad people are doing particularly bad things to good people, it is her duty to stop that from advancing. She isn’t afraid to use a little physical strength to reproduce her justice, and although she doesn’t enjoy conflict, violence isn’t a terribly bad option if necessary.

She is quite trusting toward her friends and displays a warm personality around them while maintaining a cool, intellectual mask toward strangers. Caeley bores of most people simply because of their predictability, bad guys included, she isn’t the type to allow others to do dumb things in front of her; if she can correct you, you better believe she will. Along with this, she is particularly impatient toward people with more nefarious purposes. She won’t stand around, listening to them blabber on and on about something she doesn’t care about, all she wants to know is why they are being stupid and if they intend to stop, anything else doesn’t matter.

She may seem like a girl with all brawn, but Caeley is quite intelligent. Her favorite pastime is to quickly and quietly assess people with a single look, she isn’t the type to judge prematurely on a first glance, but if she senses that you are not worthy of her time or if you’ll just be a reckless whiny child the entire time, she won’t waste any more time with you. Entirely sympathetic toward people, however, Caeley does things solely to benefit them rather than herself, so, if she calls you a moron, she only says it with love.

Weapons: None

Spoiler Show

Minor Superstrength:

There are obvious limitations to her strength, she is able to lift twice her own weight (which you will never know) and exert a mastery of control over her strength. Meaning she is able to hit as strong as possible, or as lightly as possible to fit the situation. Pushing past her limitations, however, will result in severe injury as her body would not be able to handle the stress.

Minor Earth Powers:

She has moderate control over the earth and anything concerning it. Meaning she has some levels of sensory abilities due to the smallest disturbance within the earth, this, of course, means she must be firmly planted on the ground in order to sense others. She is also able to control the earth with minor psychic abilities, able to lift massive boulders or displace the earth in tandem with her superstrength. Generally, her favorite trick to do is to cause shockwaves within the earth to produce localized earthquakes.

Minor Fire Powers:

Caeley has moderate control over fire which involves manipulation and the production of fire. It is easier to manipulate fire that has been produced by an outside force, but Caeley can also produce her own fire with some effort. With the use of psychic abilities, she can manipulate the molecules around her to accelerate friction producing flames. The more friction there is, the larger the flame would be, so, say, she produces friction between her fingers she can use that heat to create a minor flame that, with the use of some sort of accelerate, can be augmented. However, she is generally unable to create a fireball with her fingers alone.

Minor Electrical Powers:

She has moderate control over electricity and anything concerning it. This particular ability goes in tandem with her fire powers, she is able to produce electricity toward the stimulation of valence electrons from molecules in the air and manipulate it from there. However, this can only result in a minor spark or a stinging sensation, her powers are deadlier and more practical if she can manipulate electricity already present. Say, the nervous system of a human body. Though this requires physical contact, she can manipulate their electrical currents to mess it up a little bit, throwing the body out of wack.

Sensory Abilities:

She is capable of sensing the presence of another unless it were entirely extinguished. Meaning if anyone of moderate strength were to produce an aura, she would be able to pick it up quite easily within a fixed range. This also means that her normal sensory abilities are enhanced, her eyes and ears and nose in particular.

Spoiler Show

Name: Octavia Romano
Age: 15
Gender: Female
Faction: None

Appearance:

Quite young, to be frank. Octavia isn’t very remarkable in terms of body type, she looks like the average teenager to be honest. Unremarkable, quiet, and plainly average. She has long blonde hair that falls to the middle of her back that is curled in the manner a princess’s might be. Her face is of regal quality; focused, brilliant, and sophisticated. With a small, graceful nose, sharp, hawkish blue eyes and a prominently exposed forehead, she produces an air of quiet confidence. As mentioned, she simply appears very, very young; full, cute cheeks, a small mouth, she isn’t beautiful, but appears to have the potential to be so.

As mentioned, her hair has elegant curls within them of a regal type. Her honey blonde hair and her bright blue eyes give an air of innocence and childlike propriety. As for her figure, it is quite humble; severely underdeveloped, but certainly not malnourished. She holds a healthy glow apparently in her slightly tanned complexion. As for muscular system, she is fit enough to go trekking with a twenty pound backpack for an hour or two, however, do not expect much from this lithe body. She appears very capable of handling herself in precarious situations, but her limitations are extraordinarily blatant; willpower can only take someone so far. Overall, she has a dainty appearance: stands at 5’5’’ with small hands, a thin body, and a pretty face, and so on so forth.

Contrary to her regal appearance, she wears homely clothes: a pink skull hairpin on her left temple, a white shirt underneath a black waistcoat and a blue jacket along with form-fitting black pants and worn out sneakers. She looks like any normal teenager to be frank, entirely inconspicuous and easy to blend in to a crowd. Underneath her clothes, however, tells a different tale. She holds several weapons within her coat: throwing knives that double as combat knives, armor guards underneath her sleeves, and a few needles for special purposes. Also she wears a perfectly normal watch, a gift from her elder brother.

Personality:

Much unlike her appearance, Octavia is a quiet, soft-spoken girl who is indefinitely shy and holds plenty of apprehension for everything. She isn’t a very confident girl, despite her regal appearance. She always doubts herself and second-guesses everything she does, mostly because she is just a regular girl with a penchant for knives. She isn’t super in any form, and this is reflected pretty well. However, despite her very, very normal personality, her willpower would perhaps be the only abnormal part of her. She is exceptionally loyal to her friends and holds an undying determination that would diminish only after her death.

Octavia may not be the strongest or fastest girl, but her redeeming factor is her intelligence. She is quite clever and smart to the extent where she can fool others rather easily. She is able to read others quickly and silently determine what kind of person they are. And she is clever to the extent where she would rather use her intelligence in combat rather than brute strength, using her inventiveness to come up with strange solutions to certain dilemmas. She has amazing memory, capable of remembering everything to the smallest detail, even able to replicate it perfectly with her artistic ability.

As mentioned, she isn’t very confident but is loyal to her friends. This stems from her past in which she spent practically alone for a good chunk of her life, therefore she is easily susceptible in trusting others too easily. But, at the same time, she is quite a cautious person. Preferring to work alone for fear of being betrayed and for the necessity of shouldering her burdens alone. Octavia isn’t the type of person to burden anyone else with her problems, she prefers to take everything herself so no one else would be bothered. She is quite cautious when introduced to anyone she hasn’t met, preferring to play things close to the chest and using her cleverness to create a ruse for the person. Octavia is a trained actress, capable of perfectly producing an entirely different personality at a whim, complete with an alias and everything. She knows how to garner pity or disinterest; she’s had years of practice.

Spoiler Show

Throwing Knives x10:

Octavia has ten throwing knives, all of them relatively small and easily concealed within her jacket. There are only two special knives hidden within her sleeves (kept sheathed within her arm guards) that are much larger and serve as close-quarter weapons. Octavia is an expert in throwing knives and a moderate expert in marksman in general, although she isn’t well-trained in guns, she is capable of learning fairly fast though prefers to stick to her knives.

Needles:

Kept in a wristband around her left hand, there are about forty needles in total, capped off with a piece of plastic. Each needle has been dipped in a special anesthetic that is fast-acting and would render the victim unconscious within ten minutes. Virtually invisible, it would be hard to detect the needles on her person as it is hidden underneath her coat.

Hairpin:

Not a weapon, more of a tool. She is able to use her hairpin as a lockpick to break into virtually any lock she comes up against. Formerly, this was a present from her older brother not intended to be used like she’s doing it, but she greatly appreciates the gift. The hairpin is quite inconspicuous and used to keep her hair from falling over to her forehead.

Backpack:

Again, not a weapon but it contains some important stuff. A small make-up bag filled with stuff to engage in her disguising hobby and a spare wig. There is also a few rations and a book or two if she grows bored during war.

Spoiler Show

High intelligence:

Octavia is incredibly intelligent for a child her age. Though it isn’t genius level, she is entirely capable as a result. She has extraordinarily high deductive reasoning abilities and logical reasoning abilities, capable of reading emotions of someone and perfectly emulating them to produce a false effect. She has a photographic memory which allows her to memorize anything she glances at once and is able to reproduce whatever she memorizes perfectly. Numbers are also her penchant, able to do high levels of mathematics in her mind alone.

Master of Disguise:

Octavia is capable of disguising herself expertly to appear as a middle-aged woman, a teenaged woman, even males. With that, she is also very capable of changing her voice to sound entirely different, able to create a new accent and sound completely natural. She is able to fool effectively anyone who hasn’t met her before, she could even fool a family member into thinking she was someone else.

Master of Infiltration and Thievery:

Octavia is an absolute expert in the stealthy art. Able to silence herself and to stifle her presence so that she can slip in and out of anywhere undetected. Since she is not a superhuman, Octavia doesn’t produce an aura that is detectable, she is a normal human who can almost literally blend into the shadows. Even if she were wearing orange clothing, she could probably find a way to blend into the forest. Octavia is also a well-versed thief, able to pickpocket anyone she comes into contact with and is an expert in stealing extremely valuable items. Though she doesn’t practice pickpocketing much, she can do it fairly well.

Escapologist:

She is an expert practitioner in the art of escape, capable of picking locks, breaking into anywhere and breaking out of any bonds. Even able to break free of a straitjacket, without needing to dislocate her shoulders. My point is, if you have captured her, make sure she is entirely secured or she will manage to escape.

Moderate Skills in Martial Arts:

While certainly not a master, she is able to hold her own in a fight. Versed in simple martial arts that doesn’t require her to exert much physical strength, Octavia utilizes Aikido. Meaning she is able to throw without needing to use any strength and is capable of dealing deadly strikes if required, but her primary use of fighting is to throw the opponent off balanced and use their strength against them.

Deductive Abilities:

Due to her line of work, Octavia is quite capable of making both inductive and deductive reasoning on a person or a situation. Capable of reading a person with a quick glance and making an accurate reasoning on that person. Naturally, she isn’t a master in this and is bound to make mistakes, but she uses this ability to learn more of a person, like what kind of person they are, how they may fight, and so on. She is also capable of using this in combat, to determine where to hit someone and where to throw a knife, but this requires concentration and can be broken if she is distracted.
