3) Characteristics:

Background:
Personality: Russ can be outgoing and friendly, quiet and reserved, whatever is necessary for the time at hand. When at rest, she has a habit of sizing people up like living blueprints, looking for flaws and weaknesses, even if she has no intention of abusing them. She’ll casually lie in conversation every now and then, more as a hobby than as a means to an end, and isn’t the type to keep secrets to herself if it’ll benefit her. Under the dishonor there is loyalty however, usually garnered through respect, as well as a living if not crippled sense of morality. Russ might steal from a dying man, but she’s not about to burn down an orphanage for a profit.
Likes: Money, gullible people, one-on-one conversations
Dislikes: “The strong, silent type”, being out-cheated, being cornered

Maker/Smith: Umberil Highgad
Weapon Derivation: Long Sword/Short Sword/Chain Swords

5) Semblance:

Name: Speed Vault
Type: Physical
General description: The storing and redistributing of force generated by momentum
General limitations: Not meant to be used offensively, if Russ hits someone with a high-momentum punch, she’s going to feel it just as much as they do. Cannot redirect the momentum of heavy projectiles.
Visual effect: The color fades from her eyes entirely during the duration of its use.
Passive ability: Russ has a keen sense of balance from years of possessing the ability.
Active ability: While active, Russ passively stores the force from her movements and from things she touches that are in motion. Upon usage, she redirects the force in order to quickly change directions, slow down and speed up.

6) Combat info:

Position/Class: Skirmisher
Landing strategy: Redirects her momentum to soften the landing before impact.
Fighting style: Fast paced and tactical, Russ prefers cutting an enemy a thousand times safely over a risky all-or-nothing attack. She dodges more than she blocks, and her attacks are usually slashes to sensitive areas, learned preferably prior to the fight, but if she has to do it on the spot, she can adapt.

7) Trivia: Has gone by “Russ” as long as she can remember, not fond of using her first name.

Relationships: None

Physical traits: As below.
Misc traits: As below.
Nickname(s): Her father called her Scout after a character in one of his favorite books, but she found the name, while acceptable and novel in a non-combat context, pretentious and strange sounding in a setting where she may very well end up being an actual scout.

2) Appearence:

Hair: Cut just above the shoulder, in a perpetual tangle. Dark brown and dry, evidencing years of poor treatment.

3) Characteristics:

Background: Born to a common soldier, Cecilia had from a young age wanted to defend humanity from Grimm. More than half her life was spent without her father, him being on deployment hundreds of miles away from his family. Born to a working mother and without siblings, she spent her earliest years in uncomfortable community, constantly in the presence of other children at day-cares or other such services. She enrolled in school at a normal age, and her upbringing produced an outgoing young girl who found relative popularity among peers, and lived a happy early childhood exploring her myriad interests. When her father was home, she would hear [heavily embellished] stories from the front, and he imparted to her his human patriotism and strong desire to protect civilization. She became interested with her father's career, and after spending years foraging for information on soldiering and hunters enrolled in combat school, paid for by her grandparents, her family otherwise incapable of affording such advancement. She found some success at combat school, talented enough though cursed with a particularly weak aura and a marked incompetence at melee combat.

Three years ago, her father returned wounded, his legs broken beyond repair by Grimm, and through this grief and partially out of guilt for consuming her family's now limited funds in her education redoubled her efforts, shooting out into the top ranks of the school, high enough to be accepted into the most prestigious hunter academy in the world, Beacon.
Personality: Brash. Curious. Well-organized and fastidious with [learned] military precision, Cecilia stands out from her peers. She has a very prominent dichotomy between her casual personality and her combat personality, learned again from time spent around the common soldier. She is work-shy and talkative when there is little work to do, listless and torpid when performing unimportant tasks. She is crass, occasionally offensive and largely irreverent, with a fondness for gallows humor and innuendo. She holds a small group of friends close, and sees no need to expand her social horizons beyond her score or so of close acquaintances. She loves to play games and entertain herself and others during any spare moment.

Her combat persona, as she labels it, appears when there is something she deems serious to do. Exacting. Precise. Absolutely serious. Rude, calm and entirely focused. She only has two speeds: quick time and dawdle, and the gulf between the two is vast. She has learned that slow is smooth and smooth is fast, and has learned to never rush herself, to take things at her maximum possible smooth speed whenever possible and to never overextend.

She enjoys pressure, loves to face adversity and is proud and confident, swelling with patriotism and the high-minded values of freedom and safety, and holds her opinions and beliefs. She is pragmatic in her own endeavors, and highly idealistic when it comes to matters of grander importance. Her core values are freedom, success and rationality.
Likes: Firearms. Firearms again. Victory. Iced Tea. Men in short shorts. The colors green and white. Horses. Large, wild, non-grimm animals. Competition
Dislikes: Swords. The delusional. Cats, dogs and rodents. Cowardice and betrayal. Incompetent commanders. Prejudice. Censorship. Buses. The color bright yellow.

4) Weapon

Name: Selous
Maker/Smith: Rhodes Armamanets produced the original design, but Cecilia has worked long hours improving the weapon and diversifying its combat applications/
Type: Anti-Material-Bayonetted-Rifle, AMBR, she pronounces it Aim-Bar.
Weapon Derivation: The Hecate II, mixed with older elephant guns
Holstered/Sheathed Appearance: The barrel, thanks to leaps forward in transforming technology, telescopes, and the stock collapses. Is easily [if heavily] backpack-portable.
Form 1: A 54.3 inch bolt-action rifle, with a semi-grip stock and a muzzle break. Equipped with a top-mounted, variable scope and optional bipod. Bayonet lug, long grip and collapsible stock lead to easy [if difficult-to-learn] short spear usage, though incorporation of the barrel as the haft leads to a strong incentive to point-parry, restricting options somewhat.
Form 2: (if applicable)
Form 3: (if applicable)
Features/Capabilities: Chambered in .700 Perseus, capable of being loaded with a wide variety of rounds for a wide variety of uses. Extraordinarily large round with frightening kitetic force, designed to penetrate tough armor or thick auras at incredible ranges. Has difficulty with smaller targets with standard loads, contact-fuzed rounds or canister shot optional to ensure transmission of energy. Has a recoil-spreading function which limits firerate but allows for firing from the shoulder without damaging aura in the process.
Planned/Possible Upgrades: Is currently being modified to take APFSD rounds or gyroject projectiles, but progress is slow without compromising other functionality. If she ever had the funds to procure additional barrels, they could be fitted to perform different combat roles.
Notes: I wonder if people will get the naming trend...

5) Semblance:

Name: Current working title is 'Doubletime', but Cecilia is trying to figure out a replacement due to the inaccuracy and possible operational confusion such a name imparts.
Type: Psychic
General description: Slows down perception of time by a variable factor, between 4 and 9 times. 14 was recorded once, but is a dangerous outlier.
General limitations: Variable depending on conditions, only some of which are known to Cecelia. She has identified the slowdown increasing during periods of high stress, and the slowdown decreasing when she is fatigued or otherwise not at peak condition. Aura control is helping her combat this variability, but progress is slow.
Visual effect: Her eyes shift from brown to striped on a green-white-green pattern
Passive ability(x):
Active ability(x): It is an active ability, turned on and off entirely voluntarily.

6) Combat info:

Position/Class: Marksman/Reconnaissance
Landing strategy: Slowing down her perception enough to be able to make a controlled landing, using handholds and knife-assisted slowdown
Fighting style: Keeps her distance at all costs. Fires on the move when she has to, finds a hiding place or a vantage point when she can. When closed with, she uses her considerable speed afoot to disengage, assisted by a variety of lethal and non-lethal grenades to prevent pursuit or facilitate a quick elimination. Is at her best supporting close-combatants from afar.

7) Trivia:

Relationships: Wounded father, working mother. Had a painful break up with her ex-boyfriend after she was accepted into beacon. Has several close friends with whom she keeps in regular online contact. Is allergic to strawberries, though does not know. Is strangely good at checkers. Voracious reader of military fiction, though as her knowledge of actual military operations increases her tolerance for inaccuracies in her light reading is dropping quickly. Enjoys camping.
