Sound Production - Carmen is a sound producer. Unlike a sound manipulator, Carmen is incapable of taking an existing sound and changing it, and is all about producing new sounds. Sound duplication is certainly possible, but not manipulation. Carmen can utilize all of her abilities from herself when in bird form, but when in human form she requires her trumpet. Some of Carmen's specific abilities, many of which have already been used in Athalia history, are available on the wiki.

Carmen's Trumpet - Carmen possesses a supernatural brass instrument that resembles a grandiose herald trumpet. 3 feet long and with a 7.5" bell flare (the bell flare in the pictures is about 5"), it stands half as tall as its user. It is through this instrument that her music and sound production abilities are released to the world, and it can be used as both a solo instrument and a lethal sonic weapon. It can project any sound or combination of sounds Carmen can possibly think of - any tambre or combination of tambres, any amount of polyphony and counterpoint, and any dynamic from inaudible to shake-the-building's-foundation loud. It is the ultimate sonic expression tool.



Dependence Day - The most obvious weakness in Carmen's arsenal is the fact that in human form Carmen's Trumpet functions exactly as Thor's Hammer does - although she can summon the instrument to her being at any point through the very limited telekinetic abilities she possesses (which is only useful for making menial tasks a little easier and thus not (yet) considered a full-fledged power), she is completely and totally powerless when the instrument is not in her hands and in fact on her lips.

Nonfunctional Harmony - Although Carmen can shift to a gaseous bird form (hence skylark) that negates all need for the trumpet or really anything and is impervious from physical attacks, she cannot use sounds offensively while in this form and can only produce music, thus relegating this form to a defensive and primarily non-combat role.

Lopsided - While Carmen can use her abilities in a defensive fashion, she is essentially all offense, and thus doesn't have anything in the way of protection against enemy attacks. Her combat style relies entirely on her never getting hit.

Oblivion - Carmen's mind can be too confident and oblivious of danger and potential problems. While typically this has not caused trouble for her as she can deal with most problems, it provides an opportunity for disaster.


With an imposing face that can be downright menacing, Carmen is no angel. She's no demon either, but is hardly perfect. To fully understand her personality you must begin with a typical, egotistical soprano singer. This is a girl who is, by all accounts, a diva, thinks herself above all others and is very outgoing to everyone - if only to flaunt herself to them. Now take away about 1/5th of the ego and half of the outgoing-ness and you pretty much have Carmen hit on the head. She wants to talk to others, but she does not shout about it and rarely even initiates it. She thinks highly of herself but does not impose it upon others in the slightest, instead preferring to let her striking looks and (mainly) the music she creates do the talking. She is inwardly judgmental (as opposed to outwardly (to friends) like a soprano), constantly observing and judging others but never saying a word of what she thinks. Her actual thoughts on a subject are often a mystery. She is nigh impossible to attract, having ludicrously high standards and not being experienced with romance in the first place.


The mythological Siren is a beautiful yet dangerous woman creature who entices sea-going vessels to crash on the shore with enchanting song. The real (in the context of Athalia) Siren is an altogether more complicated matter. Born from the universe when a supernova generates a particular set of frequencies that possess such ferocious energy and consonance with one another that they cause the spontaneous creation of a sentient life form - a Siren. Very few Sirens have ever existed, and they all have absolute control of all sound in the universe at all times. Carmen is a subtype of Siren called a Skylark, which manifests itself in two forms: a human form, where she needs a form of sound production (the trumpet) to use her abilities, and an almost gaseous form where she can produce and manipulate sound without need for the trumpet (which dissolves when she changes to this form). This form strongly resembles a huge bird, which is why she has been dubbed a Skylark. While Sirens - and thus Skylarks - do not "age", since their inception involved frequencies which eventually dissipate, they too eventually dissipate, but only after several millenia. They cannot be classified as supernatural because they come from the natural universe, but they possess entirely "supernatural" abilities and can often learn other abilities besides sound manipulation. Conceived from a supernova on the other side of the Milky Way galaxy, Carmen spent her twenty years leading up to Athalia learning the ways of the world - languages, cultures, and most principally musics (yes, musics is a word), and as such has a vast knowledge database of human music and can reproduce much of it through her trumpet.


A little known fact is that Carmen has an extremely beautiful singing voice - a true soprano sound matching her true soprano ego. It is not linked to her abilities and for all of her self interest she refuses to sing for anyone or even allow them to know that she can, although she practices regularly. It is her best kept secret and to unlock it is to unlock the key to the rest of her mind.

Carmen owns quite possibly the largest fashion collection in the entire Athalia universe.

Carmen does not need to eat, drink or sleep, but can for entertainment.

Carmen was originally conceived as essentially a continuation of Driving Park's Kalmaysia character, Sasha Iranti. Her name was originally supposed to be Shira (meaning "singing" in Hebrew), until HylianRose pointed out that in one of the earlier roleplays there had literally been a siren character named Shira. As a result, the name Carmen Calandra was a last minute edit on an otherwise completed character sheet. She was intended to have her trumpet and ability set from the beginning (although additional abilities and tweaks were added during Season Two), but it was only when Driving Park completely embraced her diva personality that she came into her own as a character.

Carmen has appeared on more non-canon entertainment program episodes than any other Athalia character, appearing in some capacity in three Ganonshaw episodes and the first Noxonshaw episode. She is also the only character thus far to have appeared in all three shows (including her own), and the only Athalia canon character to have hosted her own show.

The surf shop cashier that Carmen bought her beach outfit (including gigantic sun hat) from in the beginning of Season Two was originally intended to be Driving Park's second character - a very laid back surfer dude with water manipulation. However, that idea never came to fruition and later in the season Mizuki "Kelly Miyabi" was introduced as his second character.

Carmen is specifically listed as a weakness in Derek Keelan's Guild character sheet.

Weight || 125 lb./56.70 kg
Hair Color/Type || silver; extremely long and voluptuous

Figure || slim; curvaceous
Occupation ||



Fox-Fire Manipulation - As a kitsune, Mizuki utilizes fox-fire as her main offensive weapon in unconventional ways such as hypnosis and life-force draining.
Hair Manipulation - Mizuki can move her head hair and each of her tails as if it were another appendage, and use them for various purposes, including attacks, defense, and comakinetic flight.
Lunar Empowerment - "Mizuki" means "beautiful moon", and Mizuki is thus the lunar fox-spirit. When it is night, especially a full moon, her power is augmented.
Trickster - Enhanced Thievery, Regenerative Healing Factor (slow).
Kitsune Physiology - Enhanced Hearing and Smell, Night Vision.


Go Big or Go Home - Mizuki is an on and off switch. When in a fight, it's all or nothing, which causes her to be far more aggressive than what is necessary for maximum effectiveness and survivability. She will rain down her own attacks without so much as checking for a counterattack. If she sees it, she will counter it, but the likelihood of her not seeing it at all is high. This also applies to collateral damage, which she both doesn't watch out for and views as an acceptable price to pay in battle, so it's generally a good idea to stay far away from her in a fight.
Type Chart - Mizuki and her fox-fire are very weak to water users, especially as fox-fire can contain electrical properties.
Mental Jenga - Mizuki's heart is located in a shell hardened from years of suffering (see Background), but the right triggers can crack it, causing complete emotional collapse.
Anti-K9 - As a kitsune, Mizuki is weak to and afraid of dogs.
Malnourishment - In addition to normal nourishment, Mizuki must also feed on life-force energy to remain at 100% capacity. This includes emotions, which is why she is dependent on people, despite her disdain for them. If she goes for too long without feeding, her good side will be completely suppressed and she will be very mentally volatile, likely to go on killing/feeding sprees until her benevolent side returns.


Kelly/Mizuki is a product of a very unique upbringing, with her recipe consisting of 60% nogitsune malevolent fox-spirit, 30% zenko benevolent fox-spirit, and 10% kind and gentle girl. She does not value life (including her own), with the exception of her two parents. She is not afraid to kill anyone (except children and the defenseless) in her quest for answers and revenge (see below). She is mischievous and malevolent, thanks to her nogitsune genealogy. She will mess with people she chooses, engaging in thievery, mind games and other such tricks for her own purposes. She is always plotting, scheming and conniving (yes, all three). She is cunning and stealthy with her games, and extremely hard to pin the blame on. Yet, because of her zenko side, she has the capacity to be an extremely sweet, caring individual to those she chooses. However, most of the time it is all an act as part of her game. On the very rare occasions when someone earns her genuine affection, kindness and trust, she will pour out her entire heart to them, smothering them in said affection and kindness. This is an extremely rare yet extremely beautiful occurrence.

She occupies a moral space located in the gray area of the moral compass, and can hate (and kill) both good and evil, usually aligning with good for their kindness and lack of unrealistic world domination plans. For her, there is only her journey.


Years ago, in the small town of Shiroku, Japan, a little girl was dying. Incapacitated by a disease that was slowly claiming her life, no amount of medicine she was given was improving her condition, and fell into a coma. Her family couldn't afford proper medical treatment, and was relying on the little medicine they and their neighbors had.

One night, while the family was sleeping, the fox-spirit Mizuki descended on the household. A spirit of the night, Mizuki had gone unseen, being spoken of in the local area in hushed tones. Whenever something was stolen or someone went missing, the small group of villages always accredited the misdeed to Mizuki, and regularly prayed to their deity to deliver them from it.

This night would be different.

When the fox-spirit reached the house of the ill child, it intended to do what it normally did. Upon seeing the little girl, however, it changed its mind. For although it was a malevolent nogitsune, it still had a reserve of compassion and honor tucked away in the recesses of its mind. Mizuki possessed the child, saving her life in the process. When morning came, the family observed what had occurred, and that the girl had already gained a bushy fox tail. Despite Mizuki's reputation, they vowed to continue raising the kitsune child as if nothing had happened.

Unfortunately, the rest of the town and indeed the Japanese government did not share the same sentiment, driving her and her family away. The family sought refuge in America, hoping to eke out a new life for themselves and Mizuki. They did so until Mizuki was in her early teens, having grown into a sweet little kitsune with three tails. In the process, she picked an American name (Kelly) to normalize herself in American society.

One night, however, armed men came and forcefully took her parents, never to be seen again. When the police arrived, all they found was a frightened Mizuki.

Mizuki never understood why her parents were taken, but it affected her drastically. She spent the rest of her life alone, scrounging out an existence in any way she could, all the while in intense emotional pain, trying to uncover who the armed men were and why they took her parents. She grew as a kitsune, gaining tails and strength during the process. She was almost ready to admit defeat and move on.

But then, they came for her.

She fought.

And then she fled.

She flew as fast as she could, and soon she was no longer followed. However, she wouldn't stop running, dangerously ignoring her fading stamina and her very undeveloped flight, which would cease to function at any moment.

And soon, she fell.


Mizuki was first introduced in the second episode of the non-canon Noxonshaw, long before she was introduced in-character. It was written by NarayanK and Driving Park as part of a many-hour collaborative episode marathon, which included the first two episodes of the Noxonshaw (Carmen then Mizuki) followed by the first episode of Carmen's show, Athalian Idol. The pair stayed up extraordinarily late completing the trio of episodes, concluding at approximately 7 a.m. EST.

The name Mizuki means "beautiful moon" in Japanese.

When posting for Mizuki, Mizuki's creator, Driving Park, often accidentally began typing the name Miyoshi, which is the name of a character he plays in a non-Athalia roleplay.

The original inspiration for the character came from a multitude of sources. The idea to link the character to the moon came from HylianRose when Driving Park first considered making a second character. A long time passed between that conversation and when development of a second character (that became Mizuki) actually begun, but Driving Park remembered the lunar suggestion and incorporated it into Mizuki's design. The inspiration to make Mizuki a kitsune came from Driving Park's "Ninetales" Etherpad username and retroactively applied Roleplayer Guild avatar. Ninetales is a Pokémon that is noticeably a nine-tailed kitsune, and is DP's favorite Pokémon. The idea to make her morally ambiguous came from three reasons: the fact that it was the creator's apparent knack, the fact that the creator couldn't decide between making a nogitsune or zenko kitsune, and the fact that the two pictures the creator found (and really wanted to use) each portrayed a different morality.

The name "Kelly" was chosen long before Miyabi or even Mizuki, and was entirely chosen so that a certain Eurobeat song by the same name could be used as the character's theme. However, during character development it was realized that the character didn't at all match the extremely uplifting mood of the song, and the theme idea was scrapped but the name kept.

Vikki Miller

Gender || female
Species/Race || human
Age || 27
Height || 6'0"/1.83 m
Weight || 147 lb./66.68 kg
Hair Color/Type || black; extremely long (~100cm) and voluptuous
Eye Color || green
Skin Color || fair/unblemished tan
Figure || killin'/incredible/would you like more adjectives?
Occupation || bounty hunter


In the midst of dozens of incredibly powerful ability-bestowed Athalians and villains, Vikki has none. She is a normal human, with no ubergenes or anything like that. However, she is extremely well trained in a multitude of specialities and silky smooth refined in each, to the degree that she can go toe to toe with any supers using nothing but her two Persian Long Luger pistols, two katanas and mastery of martial arts. Athalia's Batman, if you will, and almost as mysterious.

Things she is exceptionally trained in to the point of comprehensive mastery:

Marksmanship. Need a crack sniper? She's your shooter.

Martial Arts. She has black belts in multiple martial arts disciplines, including bladed (she uses twin katanas), fan (she uses twin steel bladed combat fans), and hand-to-hand.

Driving. She is extraordinarily adept at driving automobiles with high speed and precision.


She may be a top shot, a deadly hand-to-hand fighter, a master swordswoman and a driver worthy of stunts, getaways and top-tier racing, but as mentioned above, she has zero special abilities or defenses. A well-placed bullet will still kill her, and her body isn't immune or resistant to any supernatural abilities. With the exception of martial arts blocking/countering techniques, her combat set is entirely offensive.

In addition, unless she's specifically paid otherwise, she always works alone. This can be a problem when your adversaries throw a lot more than one foe at you. She also isn't aware of the possibility of losing or failing, which may be a good thing in some situations but definitely bad in others.


Vikki is a professional. She is extremely good at what she does, and she knows it - and everyone else knows that she knows it. Contrasting with her frequent business mindset, she always - and I mean always - dresses very extravagantly, as seen in the picture. In addition, through the cold-hearted hitman exterior, she has the capacity to care, and go out of her way to make sure justice is upheld. But...usually not.


If Star Wars has taught us anything, it's that every good vs. evil struggle needs a good bounty hunter - one who really couldn't care less for "moral alignment" in the pursuit of the almighty dollar. As such, they are usually labeled "evil" and seem to follow that line of thinking, but aren't actually aligned at all. Vikki Miller fits this trope perfectly. A bounty hunter, mercenary, hitman, gun for hire, or whatever term you prefer, she could work for Maria Cross one day and then get offered a better deal by the ranks of Hell the next.

Apart from the fact that personal advancement and combative prowess is something that motivates Vikki, she actually had to become as good as she is to escape the slums she was born in - a cutthroat culture in a bad part of a major metropolis that effectively was walled off from the rest of the world from within. If you attempted to leave, you would be found, brought back and killed. Vikki detested the culture there and desperately wanted to get out, so she trained and trained until she was so skilled that she singlehandedly toppled the entire gang hierarchy, mostly by literally toppling everyone who tried to stop her. Once she escaped, she hit the books and over time become cultured, all the while still training. Soon her reputation preceded her and she began to be drafted into the bounty hunter career path.


Vikki appears prominently in the Carlily fanfiction set eighteen years after the events of Athalia Academy, which is where her character originated. Initially intended to be one of a number of "disposable" villains, Driving Park became so enthralled with her that she was changed into a persistent character.

Dualikinesis (Yin & Yang Manipulation) - Mira possesses the ability to control all types of duality in herself and others. With this ability she can temporarily alter one's morality, effectively heal others, and counter against attacks.

Chrono-Hyalokinesis (Hourglass Manipulation) - a combination of glass manipulation and time manipulation, Mira is able to weave a path through time via glassblowing.

Psammokinesis (Sand Manipulation) - Mira can manipulate sand.



You Only Live Twice - When Mira is "killed" and her true form appears, she is susceptible to mortality and being killed for good.

Mage Ya Look - Mira has a balanced (offensive vs. defensive) ability set, but possesses no magical defense. Although she can cause a magic assailant to flip morality, there is no polar opposite to magic and thus she cannot manipulate duality to counter it. Her body has gained resilience against physical/elemental attacks, but nothing against magic (as she rarely encounters it).

Dependence Day: Desert Edition - Unlike many abilities which seem to be able to generate out of thin air, Mira's sand abilities require sand in the vicinity to be used. For this reason, she always carries around a handful of sand somewhere on her person, but were she separated from it in a non-desert or beach climate, she would be unable to use her psammokinetic abilities. Naturally, the opposite is also true - her sand potency in desert and beach climates is significantly boosted.

Strength in Numbers - Mira technically possesses four different ability sets, but although she is a very advanced user of all of them, none of them are capable of dealing OP damage on their own. She is thus much less effective in a 1x1 brawl than other forms of combat.


Mira is a philosopher, a teacher and a cleric (of sorts). Deeply rooted in a large collection of traditions, she is calm and reserved, sometimes to the point of intimidation. Her eyes offer a window into her long life and every emotion she has felt along the way - which is to say, every emotion it is possible to feel.


Mira began her long life many years ago as a Hindu girl (her given name meaning "prosperous princess" in Hindi). Raised on the priniciples of the Hindu religion, she devoted herself to achieving moksha and becoming a Jivanmukta - one who has discovered their true self (Ātman) and been liberated from the cycle of birth and rebirth. She achieved it in one lifetime - by far the quickest anyone has achieved it according to the Hindu lore. Free from the bonds of the cycle, she also became free from the shackles of aging, having her life extended for an indefinitely long amount. Although she was 96 when she attained moksha, she was bestowed with a beautiful, youthful form that would never age. She can reveal her true form at will, but usually only does when performing the Move of Ages, Amita Nirvana.

Once she had become a Jivanmukta, Mira began her relentless, lifelong pursuit of learning everything there was to learn, experiencing everything there was to experience, and helping to make the world a better place. Around her 400th birthday (around 2600 B.C.E.), she moved to Egypt to assimilate their culture. While there, she witnessed the pyramids being built at Giza. Millenia later, she found herself in China witnessing the birth of the Taoist religion under the Han Dynasty. As the religion sprouted, she became one of its principal contributors, setting her down the path towards Yin & Yang mastery.

Despite witnessing a great number of historically significant events and taking part in some of history's greatest cultures, Mira has spent most of her life thus far in her home country of India, near the village where she was born. She is written about all over Hindu writings, but also appears in writings from many different cultures, principally Egyptian hieroglyphs and Chinese hanzi. So profound was her effect on the cultures she spent time in that she quickly ascended into international legend, and it was then that she began being talked about not as Mira Kaur but as the Kali Rana, which literally means "ruler who devours time". Today, very few people know her true name or whereabouts, knowing her only by her surviving legends. Her legend name carries as much weight as any other, and many people believe her (and her legends) to be a myth.

Although Mira has attained knowledge far surpassing any mortal, she has not obtained the one piece of knowledge that she has been searching for since she attained moksha nearly five millenia ago:

What is she?

She assumed at first that her Jivanmukta status would grant her things not attainable by normal humans...but a never aging form, apparent immortality without ascension, and the ability to manipulate time and morality? She always thought it was something more than just the Hindu dieties smiling on her. Her current conclusion is that either the dieties kept her on Earth and bestowed her with abilities to rival their own for a noble purpose...or that it's entirely a construct of some other doing.

Perhaps coming across Athalia Academy and its schizophrenic war with Hell will finally answer her five-thousand year question.


Mira is able to time travel via a combination of all four of her abilities, the catalyst being sand. This ability, referred to as the Sands of Time, is one of the most potent in the universe, being able to cause irreparable damage if used without caution (as is true of any form of time travel). It is primarily for this ability that Dark Mira would be a massive threat to everyone else.

Mira possesses an ability called Amita Nirvana that has not been performed in 2,000 years. Claimed eyewitness accounts of its last use have been retold through generations, and the ability has become one of the most widespread legends of Hindu culture. Many have concluded that Mira is a prophet or even a Hindu diety specifically because of this ability's legend, and that the ability can only be activated when Mira is killed.

Mira carries but one tool, a glassblower's blowpipe. She handcrafted the long, skinny tube herself millenia ago, and it is the most exquisite tool imaginable.

As her pictures indicate, Mira is known for always wearing elaborate lehenga choli - the traditional marriage ensemble of Indian women.

While Mira is universally known as the Kali Rana from legends, she has also been referred to as "The Seamstress of Time" and (more simply) "Mirage".

Kali Rana is both a name and a title. Made up of a Hindi first name followed by a Hindi last name, it could conceivably function as a birth name. However, in Mira Kaur's case, it functions as both, and is usually said/written as "the Kali Rana".

Mira's entire existence is a mystery to many. Due to her existence in legends dating as far back as 3000 B.C.E. to the present day, people who know the legends have varied opinions on what she is. Some believe she is a Hindu prophet, sent down to this world and kept there to preserve the Hindu religion and its dieties. Others, particularly those who know the legends of the Move of Ages and other such ability-related legends, think she is actually a Hindu diety or semi-diety herself. Others think that she was normal woman and died after a normal human lifespan, with subsequent legends being fairy tales. Still others believe that her entire existence is a myth, decrying accounts of the Move of Ages and her simply vanishing into the desert sands.

Powers:

Follower of the First Ancestor: Baptized at birth with the ashes of the “First Ancestor”, the first grandmaster of his clan, he gains inferior abilities of the “First Ancestor”. He can phase out of this reality, seemingly disappearing in a cloud of ash, and appearing in another position, seemingly “teleporting.”. He is also able to blast ash from his fingertips, disorienting others or granting him ample time to relocate.

Unnatural Physiology: Through centuries of selective breeding and experimentation, the clan bred what they deemed the perfect warrior. With the general improvements to reflexes, speed, and strength, his body can also ignore some basic fundamentals of physics. For example, he can dash while mid-air, moving towards an enemy with little to no sound. If a projectile weapon enters his body at any point completely, he can use the muscle and bone in his body to change the direction the projectile is moving, avoiding mortal wounds. He doesn’t even need to visually see an enemy to predict their movements accurately.

God’s Palm: Advanced martial arts techniques paired with unnatural physiology means he is almost unparalleled in hand to hand combat. Developed by his clan to provide to accompany the almost passive abilities gained from baptism, many foes of the clan were killed because they assumed it was just another martial art. One palm strike using this martial art can split a tree in half- it’s no surprise a user is able to crush bones and organs with ease.

Weaknesses:

The drawbacks of his “teleport” is that it is not instantaneous, meaning an enemy will have ample time to react. This ability merely shifts him into a different plane of existence, meaning he will still have to physically be able to get to any position he wishes to “teleport” to. He cannot also attack any other being while in this plane.
While his unnatural physiology allows him to achieve many superhuman feats, it does not come without a cost. Performing an superhuman act decays his body slowly. Attempting to take advantage of his physiology for an extended period of time leads to his body shutting down, leaving him barely able to walk or crawl, let alone breathe.

His skillset is mostly for a single target, up close and personal. Multiple targets present a difficulty for him, as well as any attack that can sweep a large area.

Personality:

Despite having a less than pleasant background, Joseph doesn’t think much about it. In fact, he’s sociable… But enjoys being a tease. He’s the one who attempts to lighten the mood in bad times. Joseph will probably seem overbearing at times, but he merely wants everyone to enjoy life.

Background:

Joseph was born to a clan closed off from the world. They had no intention of contacting the outside world- Their small island was enough for them. The main interest of the majority of the clan were in pursuit of a stronger, faster warrior, in order to make sure they could repel any invaders who dared desecrate their lands. Intense training and experiments were common place.

Like all members of the clan, Joseph was baptized at the age of eleven, with the ashes of the First Ancestor, the first grandmaster of their clan, The clan’s deity. He then gained his powers and began training under his elders.

But of course, like every population who practices some sort of religion, the clan was divided. Some wanted to conquer more lands in the name of the clan, others wished to resurrect the First Ancestor, others wanted to keep to the old ways, and so on. Civil war eventually followed.

After the dust settled, Joseph soon was the only one left, saved due to the fact he had decided not to fight. As Joseph had nothing left to gain by staying on the island, he left, leaving behind a mass grave.

Haemokinetic Constructs - Being an heir to the Black family bloodline, Axel can control the blood that his body produces. Using this ability, Axel can create tools and/or weapons using the blood that escapes his body. He can also, using the same aspect of his ability, control the iron in his blood in order to harden or sharpen his “tools”. This can come in hand in multiple ways, but mainly is used to create a weapon to fight with the need arises. Although he can slightly increase his ability to produce blood, there is still a limit to how much he can use before feeling the side effects of blood loss. If he did not use the “tool” that he created, then he can reintroduce the blood back into his body with no ill side effects, but he if he did use the tool, he would no longer be able to allow the blood back into his body. This is due to his body rejecting the “tainted” blood.

Blood Boil - Axel can increase/decrease the rate of flow passing through his body in order to enhance all of his physical abilities to nearly double of an average humans. This is due to the fact that, by controlling the blood still inside his body, he can reinforce or enhance specific muscles in his body in order to produce the desired effect. This does rapidly increase the temperature of his blood , and could create extensive internal damage to Axel’s body if used for too long.

Muscle Mimicry - Axel can copy any movement/action after seeing it performed once or twice, including acrobatics, martial arts, and other physical stunts. With these skills he can become a master and incredible at what does, by combining what several forms and movements in rhythmic motions instead of using the same thing over. Axel cannot mimic an supernatural abilities and is limited to what his body can physically achieve.



Sun - Along the rest of his race, the sun greatly reduces all of Axel’s physical and bloodline abilities. The strength of this weakness depends on the height of the sun during the day. When the sun is reaches its highest point, that is the time that Axel is at his weakest.

The Thirst - Being a vampire, Axel must sustain off of the blood of the human race. Even though there does exist a blood substitute, it does not satisfy Axel’s rich tastes. Axel will use the blood substitutes, but will eventually breakdown and seek out a source of human blood.

A Noble’s Pride - Axel has immense pride in his race and heritage. An insult to his race or family is a direct insult to him, and he will often get into arguments and fights due to this.

Overconfidence - Axel tends to underestimate his opponents because he is too confident in his abilities. This causes him to make sloppy mistakes in combat and in normal social conventions.



Axel is a proud, stubborn, intelligent, and kind individual who values life over death. He is often a quiet individual who likes to keep to himself, but he will not hesitate to voice his opinion if he feels it is needed. He is very loyal to those he considers his friends and is always willing to lay his life on the line for what he views is right.



Axel J. Black has lived a life of luxury.Axel is the son of Lucius Black, the head of the Black family and a member of the Vampire Council. That means that the Black family is one of the most noble and wealthy families in the nation of Gortana. Since birth, Axel lived the life of a king. He was given everything the he ever wanted, and rarely had to work for it. He hated it. He had learned from his father that the balance of power in Gortana is a fickle mistress, and you must always be prepared to fight for your life. It was from that moment on that Axle began his training.

For 35 years, Axel studied under a multitude of martial arts masters, and he studied under even more academic mentors as well. No mentor stayed for more than a year, and most left after just a couple of months. Axel’s rate of learning was seemingly off the charts, and soon enough the other noble families started referring to him as a prodigy. Although he hated the unwanted attention, he didn’t argue with anyone who told that to him.

When Marcus began his takeover of Elaniel, Axel watched in dismay as the Vampire Council began to aid Marcus in his endeavours. Axel couldn’t stand to watch as his father allowed such things to happen, and sulley the vampires reputation. He charged into the Council’s chamber and very publicly challenged his father for his seat on the Council. A week later, Axel faced his father in the Blood Stadium, the main arena for challenges against the Council, and lost horrible. His father used his strongest technique against him at the very start and foiled any hope of there being any actual fight. Although the fight was to originally fight to the death, his father could not kill his only son. So he exiled Axel from Gortana, and told him never again to return. His father branded Axel with the tattoo of the exiled, and cast his son out of Gortana. Axel has since been roaming Lavanya, searching for a way to get stronger. He never wanted to face such humiliation again and swore that he would return and challenge his father again.

Cryokinesis

Power Name
Cryokinesis
Technically cryokinetisist are categorized as hydro manipulators. "Nature? Fire? Both are chaotic and difficult to control. Ice is structured, latticed, light as a feather, massive as a glacier. In ice, there is power and beauty."

Able to create, shape and manipulate ice, water frozen into a solid state and appears naturally in forms of snow, hail, icicles, ice spikes and candles, glaciers, pack ice, frost, and polar ice caps, and cold by reducing the kinetic energy of atoms and thus making things colder, for various effects and combinations.

Last but not least, it makes her at least resistant to the cold and hypothermia.


Hot temperatures, the flame and anything that is hot counters the wonders of ice, magic or not. Even sound based magic because it shatters ice. Resistance over ice is granted however immunity isn't. Also, she hates summer. The effect of having cryokinesis is that it is a double edged sword. While resistant to the cold, the hot will make one bounce as in sensitive skin in hot weather and weakening of status/performance.

ATTACK! ATTACK! ATTACK! Psychics are intelligent beings but foolish in many ways truly which hinders and decreases their potency and performance. Rika rushes without thought which brings huge misunderstanding and negative vibes. In other words, taking things poorly in understanding and coming outright mean and idiotic.

Not so easy to open up if said person is the friend you want to bond with. As expected from an ice person. Half of her is cold. Self insecurity and angst.

Weakness Name
Weakness Description:
Glass Canon. What do you expect from a long range fighter? Correct! Poor durability and endurance. It also doesn't help the fact that Rika is an ice person, she suffers badly in warm temperatures.

Over thinking things. Yes she does over think things and no matter what, she tries to make it logical. She also doesn't believe in magic which in a sense makes her a "racist".


Like some of her family members, she is quite aloof and reluctant to acknowledge certain people, but she's not above commending them when they truly deserve it. She is one hell of a curious person. Rika sees herself as a critical thinker which is rather the opposite due to how she reacts to certain situations. Unlike her parents. She is never over-confident, not obsessed with boys, but modest and treats her classmates nicely showing some degree of warmth.


The Tsurara are chalk-full of influential people, scientists, cryo-geneticists, politicians and failures that are long forgotten. Rika sometimes uses her mother's surname instead of her father's which is unintentional through some birthright papers having a typo error and it's a tedious process to carry her father's surname. Like her mother and father, she carries the R naming theme of her parents, Rika is never met her mom in person but knows of her through pictures, email and her mother is always busy and that her father is the one that takes care of her.

One day, Rika replicated her mother's experiment; mixing liquid nitrogen in certain chemicals. During the winter season, there was a snowstorm and people have to stay in their homes to be safe, it was raining that day as well; as a matter of fact this was the theorized condition to replicate her mother's experiment and she was struck by lightning, leaving her in coma for a year. A strong change occurred in the 14 year old once Rika, discovered her new found power and hopes that it will bring her closer to finding her mother and give justice for her family of reuniting together. "My name is Rika Tsurara and I'm the coldest woman alive, when I was a child my mom wasn't there and so I replicated her experiment to get closer to her and believe in the impossible and the accident made me the impossible. I will find my mother and bring justice to my father and reunite as a family... I am Rika Tsurara"
