Name: Gale Azure

Age: 17

Gender: Male

Species: Human

Face: Gale has soft features and large eyes that make him look younger then he is.

Hair: A very dark shade of blue that is almost black in color and is brushed to the side to keep out of his eyes

Eyes: Gale's eyes are a shade of azure which are framed behind a pair of black glasses

Skin: his skin is clear and fair with little freckles on his shoulders and back, also soft and smooth to the touch a telling sign of inexperience to the hardship of life.

Frame: Gale has a lithe body with slightly wider shoulders then hips due to his weapon of choice.
Height: 154 cm (5'1")
Weight: 46 kg (102)

Personality: Gale is an optimistic, friendly, outgoing, and carefree young man with a happy-go-lucky attitude that makes him approachable and easy to befriend. Gale is also very kindhearted and compassionate, something that is highly sought after in a Huntsmen, he cares deeply for the people under his care as well as his friends and family. He is overall very friendly to everybody he meets, he rarely holds grudges, and is very open minded towards others and their culture even towards people that means him harm. Gale will always do his best to support others he cares for even if it puts him in harms way and he will do everything in his power to avoid resorting to violence. He would much prefer to be reasonable and make compromise instead of fighting back.

Gale is rather naive and can at times be rather socially oblivious, due to his isolated upbringing by his parents. Gale has never fought with a Grimm a day in his life and is rather clueless on how to fight in a real battle and is also oblivious to the hardships of being poor or being hungry. While Gale is often prepared to go on a mission at a moments notice, he has a bad habit of biting more then he can chew, requiring somebody more skilled to come in and help him.

Weapon: Giant Warhammer/Rocket Launcher

Weapon Name: War Song

Weapon Functions: War song is a giant Warhammer that is taller then Gale almost twofold, it is expertly made and is lighter then it looks yet heavy enough to smash any Grimm or anybody that opposes Gale. The handle of the giant Warhammer is a rocket launcher that can shoot out massive dust powered Rockets to take out things from a safe distance. It is also a Foci for his semblance as he can use the giant hammer to create powerful gales of wind to sweep over the battlefield and he can his semblance to swing his weapon faster.

Armor/ Clothing: Gale always wears fashionable outfits, often wearing suits and ties for causal wear and on the battlefield he wears an exquisitely made dark blue cape, dark blue dress coat with an incredibly long coattail, white dress pants, and dark blue combat boots.

Semblance Name: Second Wind

Semblance: Gale, as one would say can control the gales. Gale's semblance is Air Manipulation. Meaning Gale can create, shape and manipulate air. Currently Gale is inexperience with using his Semblance as so far he can only create moderately powerful winds to knock over Grimm and humans instead of sending them flying, currently he mostly uses it to increase his combat speed making his War song lighter and to swing it faster and he also uses it to increase his running speed and increase the height at which he jumps. But this semblance has the potential to be very powerful but he is far from reaching it.

Strengths: Gale is a surprisingly strong and durable fighter with an incredibly strong weapon and great potential when it comes to his semblance.

Weaknesses: Gale is horribly inexperience on the battlefield and is overly reckless and often does more then he can handle and is overall just too soft to endure the cruelty of the battlefield as he currently is.

Bio: Gale was born as the only child to a pair of Valite aristocrats, Elizabeth and Norman Azure. Gale was healthy and happy child, born into a life of comfort and freedoms that very few people can say they have. People would expect The Azure's to be all snobby and overly prideful jerks like most aristocrats, but they were good people who tried their best to be the best parents to their child and make the world a better place then when they were children. His parents altruism rubbed off on Gale as he was always a nice and gentle child who cared deeply for those around him no matter how much or little he knew of the other person, his altruism would later inspire him to become a huntsmen so he can be just like the heroes he read about in legends and books.

But Vale's aristocratic society was a toxic place where kindness and softness is frowned upon and is mocked severely behind people's backs, the Azure's were hardly popular with the rich crowd as their belief in equal rights for the poor and the faunus made them public enemies, the Aristocratic mockery he endured as a child further shaped his willpower to become a Huntsmen as he believed being a hero will make other people rethink their words and become better though example.

When Gale was a growing he remembered his parents being one of the first ones to back up the fund the expedition to create what would be later known as Vault. Also during this time Gale started to train so he can make true of his wish to become a Huntsmen.

Not long after once Vault was formed and better protected the Azure family moved to the new nation so Gale can be raised away from the harshness that the Vale's aristocratic game and to also to become one of the first Vault Huntsmen. Once he moved to Vault Gale trained even harder, eventually he learned how to summon his aura and after a few more years of training he learned how to control his Semblance, not long after learning to use his semblance, His parents commissioned a weapon so he could properly fight Grimm, which he later called the War Song. After years of training and fine tuning his aura and semblance, Gale is to join Lustre Acadmey as first year shortly after his seventeenth birthday. He is excited to finally put his training to good use. But he may have bitten more then he can chew.

Takes note of flaws in battle stances.

Weaknesses: Because of his independence, it can be hard to warm up to others and take orders, can be emotional at times when at a disagreement. Sometimes even unwilling to listen to others.

Bio: Cassius grew up with what is considered a mostly secluded life, with his father dying before him due to his line of work, it left him scarred as a child, he did not want to be the weak person he was. When he was nearing the age of twelve, he was taken in by a slightly older friend, a mercenary named Mathias Graymen. Mathias taught him all he needed to know about hunting Grimm, to surviving in the wild, learning the environment, but he never taught him how to talk with people.

Around the age of Eighteen, he returned to his home in Vale where he saw his mother had left it to him. Mathias however did not simply leave him alone, they got back into society rather slowly, adjusting to new laws, new technological developments, and even the horrible television shows. The horror he had to deal with… Through and Through, they were adapting quite well with just basic living. It was nice to take a break for once. But as time went on, he received a letter of recommendation from his mother, inviting him to Lustre academy, he questioned if it was truly right for him to go; he had not been to combat schools, he had been out of public eye for so long. He ultimately questioned how his mother knew he was just there. Perhaps when she checked the power was in use at home she knew? He did not know. But like fate, he took a gamble and agreed. If he became a better Hunter, then maybe no one would have to suffer because of White Fang atrocities.

For three years he took time to adjust to life around him, he found peace and tranquility as he honed his skills. Yet, he questioned what his use would be to anyone as a blade dancer. To hide his feminine traits, he used a family mask to hide his face, donned a torso plate and other vanity based armors. He feared he'd not be taken seriously otherwise.

Extra Notes: Despite him not being in society for very long as of late, he is surprisingly good at making cakes and other treats, just not complex pastries. He is also a bit of a history fanatic, but he hates doing any kind of math related work. Despite having no dance teacher, he naturally enjoys doing Solo Salsa. When fighting Hand to Hand, he uses a Mixture of Aiki-Jujitsu and Tai Chi-Quan. He also carries a Feline mask around. He Absolutely hates the White Fang.

His name means as Follows.
"Cassius" means Empty and Vain, to apply a color concept to empty, is the absence of it, as well as dark to contrast it's presence. Vanity is both a concept that can be good and bad. The color applied here is White Gold.

"Alexandros", root name. Alexander. It means "Protector of mankind." Blue or Red works here seeing as they are bolder colors in contrast, Midnight Blue works for this, or even Royal Blue.

"Lumnya." Really it means just the moon. White works here, as well as Shadow seeing as the Moon has phases where it can seem absent.

"Svent" is a fictional name I made up. But if I had to apply color to it, it would be that of Smoke to darkness in general.

Name: Asher Brandt
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Species: Human

Theme Song: From Dust to Ashes

Height: 5'9
Weight: 58kg

Personality: Cheerful, yet rebellious. That would be the quickest way to describe it. The cheerfulness comes from his enjoyment as being the top dog of Vault's lower streets, he enjoyed that life, it was exhilarating, and taught him to not take things too seriously, lest they pull you down unexpectedly. He only recently became more rebellious after being adopted, suddenly thrown into a family with expectations, he's honestly not sure how to handle it, but the younger siblings he now has makes it a bit easier as they seem to admire him.

He's also prideful, he carries himself with strength, he's more of a man of action than words, rude and brash at times, but he can be a kind of informal polite, and values the concept of respect. He dislikes backstabbers and deceivers most, as he's seen many suffer at the hands of those kinds. His palate is simple, the complex dishes his new family makes for dinner are good, but there's just so much going on he can't really enjoy them, so sometimes he sneaks out at night just to hit the old stands where he always ate.

Aura: Charcoal gray with orange ember-like particles.

Weapon: Katana, Sheath, Monado's Power Greatsword
Weapon Name: Ember/Inferno
Weapon Functions: The sheathe is designed to accept dust ammunition, allowing Asher to add a buff to his blade with each successive sheathing of his blade. The blade itself is designed to flow dust through it in a loop, allowing it to keep these buffs for extended periods of time. As an extra effect when applying a new buff, he can fire his blade out of the sheath to increase the speed of his draw strikes and as a surprise and power factor.

The last function is the Greatsword function that requires the blade to be sheathed, this function is called "Inferno". By infusing the entire weapon with aura, he can cause it to "open" up and generate a large blade of aura. Due to it's pure energy composition, it is not only essentially a lightsaber, it is also very costly, but it almost ensures a winning blow if it lands. He's not likely to use this for longer than one or two moments due to the cost, but perhaps as a surprise attack or a power strike at an opportune moment. This is his trump card.

Finally, the sheath is designed in a way that lets him dual wield his sheath and sword.

Armor/ Clothing: (I'll get to this later)
Semblance Name: Phantom Twin
Semblance: This Semblance allows one to create a phantom twin of themselves to fight alongside them. The phantom twin can be summoned rather freely, so he can summon it while attacking to strike an opening. It can be difficult to duel him as a result, especially when both him and his clone are dual wielding. He can infuse them with dust for elemental clones with various extra effects. He is also able to switch with the clone which takes a few moments. Finally, he can actually fight his own clones for practice.

Strengths: Asher is very instinct-based, allowing him to excel greatly in combat. When focusing on one opponent he picks up on a large variety of patterns. He's incredibly strong on the offensive as he has various tools that let him create openings and exploit them. He's best in a duel, and against multiple opponents he's only decent, and survives them easily only because of his Semblance which allows him to turn 2v1s into 2v2s.

He's got excellent potential as a commander, as his confidence and forwardness inspires those around him. He tends to keep a level head despite him being a little hot-headed.

Weaknesses: If he starts thinking in a fight, he's more likely to lose. Beyond that, his weakness in combat is actually dedicated and quick ranged combatants, as he doesn't have any means of ranged combat other than his Phantom Twin which he can send out to attack in his stead. He doesn't have many defensive techniques which makes defending difficult for him, plus after using the Inferno mode on his weapon, he can be quite vulnerable.

He has a fair bit of pride in his self-taught swordsmanship so he's prone to defending that honour. Academically he's nothing special either.

Bio:

Among the things that were done to help Vault grow was to move the orphans somewhere, and Vault was that somewhere. Asher Brandt is one of those orphans, who were given a strange new home, with streets they watched be built from the ground up and call their own, it was something of a mark of pride for these kids, Asher was no different. With the support coming in from the surrounding nations however, many of these children were put up to see their aptitudes as hunters and then trained if they qualified. Asher failed initially, it honestly devastated him, since his friends that he grew up with qualified, and were adopted by families from other nations.

He didn't stop though, if he couldn't use dust or semblance or whatever, then he'll just use a sword. For a couple years he became a well-known delinquent around Vault. Running around with a stick, or two, he pretty much started gang wars with the other kids and eventually his actions brought him attention from Lustre Academy. They were surprised he failed the aptitude tests, because this time he passed way beyond their average. Families in the area noticed and tried to adopt him, initially he refused, but eventually he would accept and become part of the Brandt family.

He had trouble fitting into his new family, new siblings, new parents, it seems this family was one that moved to Vault in the recent years. The father was ambitious and sought to create a legacy here in Vault with his family, and adopting skilled hunters and huntresses was part of that. Considering Asher's more rough attitude he didn't quite fit in, but fortunately his siblings were more accepting of him. Still with that all said and done, he was admitted to Lustre Academy with little trouble, and given him his choice equipment by his own idea and selection.

Etymology: Asher simply refers to "Ash", it also means "happy" or "blessed". Brandt his new family name means "fire", or "sword". Originated from Brant, and before that, Brandr in Norse.

Family:

• Father, Arcturus Brandt
• Mother, Matilda Brandt
• Younger sister, Edna Brandt
• Youngest sister, Bluebell Brandt
• Blood father, unknown
• Blood mother, unknown

Other Notes: He has three close friends, all who had been adopted to live with families abroad. They now live in respectively, Vacuo, Vale, and Mistral.

Name: Sable Alhambra
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Species: Human
Face: An odd mixture of angular and stern, yet softly tapering and child like
Hair: Black, jaw length bob cut
Eyes: Amethyst
Skin: Pale White

Frame: Athletic
Height: 5' 6"
Weight: 112 lb.

Personality: Sable is, frankly, a nasty human being. She is abrasive, mean spirited and outright malicious towards those around her, especially towards those who would refuse to bend to her notions and whims. She is a bully, who relishes in boosting herself up by bringing others down with toxic personal attacks, finding the false sense of superiority it brings utterly intoxicating. Often, such attacks fall upon humanity's counterpart in this world, whom she holds no actual distaste for on a personal distaste for but finds to be easy targets who rarely offer up as much resistance as her kin. Her foul nature is only further worsened by a volatile temper which she rarely bothers reigning in, far preferring to make others suffer than to inconvenience herself by restraining such urges. She is a woman obsessed with perfection, who craves the top spot in all she does with all her being. Denying her such or exercising superiority over her in any meaningful way is a sure fire way to crawl under her skin and much like any good sore loser, she rarely forgets or forgives such a grudge.

Weapon: Dust absorbing tattoos connected to a pair of bracelet 'injectors' with revolving dust capsules.
Weapon Name: Xanatos Gambit
Weapon Functions: Consisting of a series of black, archaic looking tattoos which spread along the whole of Sable's body with the exception of her face, Xanatos Gambit is a fairly unique 'weapon' which harkens back to a time when dust usage was more 'natural'. These tattoos, infused with a dust reactive ink, allow Sable to use her body as a conduit for unleashing nature's wrath. Two pairs of smooth, silver bracelets function as its only mechanical component. Within each non-descriptive looking accessory lay several vials of dust attached to a revolving mechanism.

At will, Sable is capable of shifting through her prepared dust and selecting a vial. Upon doing so, it will 'hook' into a needle like device which jabs downwards into the girl's wrists. From there, dust is flowed down into her tattoos where, in tandem with her aura, she is capable of manipulating it to form powerful 'spell' like abilities. Alternatively, she can use this dust to augment her physical abilities and add elemental effects to her hand-to-hand assaults.

Each bracelet is capable of holding four vials of dust at a time. While she is capable of changing its load out at will, Sable is most used to a specific set of dust; fire, wind, ice, lightning. As such, her default load out is almost always of these four and she is most skilled in their usage. As each type of dust varies in its applied effects, what abilities Sable can call upon at any given time differs. When channeling a specific kind of dust, her tattoos glow softly with its particular color.

Fire; When using fire dust to augment her physical attributes, Sable is capable of increasing her strength and cloaking parts of her body in a roaring inferno, inflicting burns on those she strikes and igniting suitable substances. In the department of 'spells' she possesses the ability to launch balls of fire towards her opponents, quick bursts of flame and with some difficulty and a deal of drain, sustained streams.

Wind; When using wind dust to augment her physical attributes, Sable increases her speed by unleashing quick bursts of air to propel herself towards or away from opponents and increasing the impact of her strikes by causing said bursts to radiate from points of contact. In the department of 'spells' she possesses the ability to launch blasts of concussive wind, minor whirlwind to uproot foes and sustained gales.

Earth; When using earth dust to augment her physical attributes, Sable can increase her physical durability by 'hardening' her body parts in layers of stone like dust, thereby protecting her from certain forms of damage and greatly reducing damage taken. This hardening also increases how much damage she inflicts on hit. Her 'spells' while using this kind of dust shifting or otherwise altering the terrain below an opponent, launching jagged projectiles of rock and levitating or manipulating chunks of earth in offensive or defensive maneuvers.

Lightning; When using lightning dust to augment her physical attributes, Sable increases her ability to perceive and react to incoming threats by stimulating her nervous system, as well as flowing electricity into her foes when striking. Her 'spells' while calling upon this element involve launching quick, compact bolts of lightning, sending flows of electricity through suitable substances and firing off sustained streams.

Armor/ Clothing: Sable opts for loose fitting and comfortable clothing over anything which may restrict her movement, typically favoring tank tops and baggy trousers which lack any true fashion. Her clothing, much like her soul, is almost universally black or dark in shade. She refuses to wear shoes, even outdoors.

Semblance Name: Aural Construct
Semblance: An odd semblance for a woman who wishes to tear so much down, Sable's ability allows her to manifest her aura outside of her body in the form of constructs. These constructs can be nearly anything she can imagine, from a pair of scissors, to a suit of armor, to a massive arm and beyond. Possessing the ability to freely manipulate her constructs as she sees fit, these incredibly durable objects can fill many gaps in the bruiser's skill pool. It, of course, has its drawbacks however. As her aura is finite, so too is the number of constructs she can make at any given time and the size of said constructs. The more complex a construct is, the more focus it requires to create and control. It also goes without saying that manipulating a multitude of objects also leaves one hard pressed to do much else.

Strengths:
Bulldozer; Sable possesses great physical strength which is only further augmented by her semblance and dust usage. Her high offensive capabilities and blitz tactics can quickly overwhelm foes.
Multi-Talented; Using a hybrid style comes with advantages, as Sable of fighting competently up close and from afar, using enhanced melee and spells to engage in both spheres of battle, as well as enjoy utility from the latter.
Analytical; Sable is a perceptive woman, whose venomous nature causes her to instinctively look for weakness in others. This is particularly useful in combat, where she can quickly inspect and deduce counteractive measures, or shore up any weaknesses in an allies' form of combat.
Weaknesses:
Bright Lights Burn Quick; Sable's fighting style is one which taxes her aura reserves a great deal, making unsuited for drawn out conflicts and prone to 'burning out' if she is not careful.
No Weapon; Using her body as a weapon comes with obvious disadvantages, especially when running low on dust or aura and having no back up to defend herself with.
Temperamental; Sable's volatile nature is easily exploited by clever opponents, leading to lapses in judgement and fumbles in more difficult to pull off maneuvers and spells.

Bio: Sable's life began among the wilds of the world, born outside the safety of the kingdoms to a mother of Huntress origin and a father whom she would never know. Her mother, a mercurial woman with a certain flair for cruelty much preferred life outside of civilization, a place where her prowess as a combatant was more important than political pomp or ability to deal with those she deemed unworthy of her time. A place where only power truly mattered and kept at bay the Grimm which swarmed the world's many wildernesses. In her eyes, the perfect place to rear a child.

It was this decision, along with her mother's innate attitude, which would forge young Sable from the innocence which all children were born to the ball of hate she would become as an adolescent. Many a day she spent clinging to her only parent's cloak as they trudged through wastelands, forests and caverns and many a night did she spend, fearing for herself as beowulves, deathstalkers and all form of other foul monster roamed the twilight hours. But, for all her critical words and poor decision making, Sable's mother kept her safe, fed and educated. She was taught to survive, adapt and thrive in harsh circumstances. Taught to follow in the foot steps of the only person in her sad world.

As such, upon reaching the required age, Sable was shipped from the wilds with little input of her own towards the kingdoms her kin had despised so for an education in the arts of hunting. She was unprepared, for all intents and purposes a socially inept apprentice with a foul attitude and a grudge with those around her. But, she survived, she adapted and she made it through her initial training at Signal Academy. It was then an option was given to her; which secondary academy to attend. While some scrambled for prestigious Beacon of made haste for a military school in Atlas, she chose a smaller, more isolated school. A fledgling school, which few attended and fewer had made any names in. A place she could thrive.

She picked Lustre.

Name: Virid “Vir” Slate (Virid being an Archaic term for Green, Slate being a bluish grey)
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Species: Human
Face: Virid’s face is well proportioned, with the exception of wide eyes that are just a bit too big for his head. His features are soft and boyish, making him look younger than he actually is.
Hair: Dark brown, short hair, left mostly untouched except for a quick combing.
Eyes: Green
Skin: White

Frame: Vir is lankier than most.
Height: 5’ 11”
Weight: 152 lbs

Personality: Virid is an altogether friendly person. While he likes to help people, his primary motivation is a love of adventure. Vir has never been comfortable being idle, he always needs to be doing something, be that reading, training, or talking. As is typical with people suffering from that sort of hyperactivity, Vir is woefully unorganized, both in his possessions and in his mind.

Weapon: Two Roman-style short swords.
Weapon Name: Harmony and Discord.
Weapon Functions: The weapon, in it’s natural state, functions as two Gladiuses. A switch on the pommel of each sword collapses and folds the blades and handle to transform the swords into a pair of bayoneted pistols. Dust bullets can be slotted into the clip of each pistol if need be.

Armor/Clothing: Casually, Vir tends to dress in more formal shirts and pants, mostly in neutral colors. He has a grey pea-coat that he attempts to wear as much as possible. During battle, he wears his normal clothing with a pair of metal shin guards and gauntlets, as well as leather knee and elbow pads.

Semblance Name: Radiance
Semblance: Virid has the ability to generate green-hued light. This can be either in the form of a compact ball or a glow that radiates around his body. This can be done, at most for thirty minutes every few hours. Because the light has no heat or physical form, it cannot be used as a weapon (Yet).

Strengths:

• Intelligent: Vir is able to solve problems and think quickly.
• Swordsmanship: Virid is quite capable with his weapons.
• Charismatic: Virid has a magnetic personality.

Weaknesses:

• Low pain tolerance: Virid just can’t take pain like most people.
• Low physical strength: While Virid is capable in combat, he just doesn't have the sheer physical strength of some Hunters.
• Naive: Virid looks on the world with a sort of child-like innocence, trusting to a fault.

Bio: Virid was born in a small village in Western Mistral. He was the only child of Wenge and Lilac Slate, respected Hunters of Mistral. When Lustre was opened for immigration, the family moved to the new nation. His parents found work easily, as Lustre had yet to train any Hunters of its own. Virid spent a surprising amount of his early childhood alone. This left Virid with two things, a sense of independence, and a good amount of loneliness.

Virid knew from an early age he wanted to become a Hunter. Growing up constantly moving around, with parents in the career, anything else would seem boring. Virid received no primary education, being taught the ways of combat by his mother, and academics by his father. Eventually, he began to accompany his parents on their missions. This served as a sort of pre-academy training. When his parents decided he was ready, he shipped off to Vault.

Name: Blaine Ambrose
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Species: Human
Appearance:
Symbol:

Frame: A little more built then average
Height: 5ft 7"
Weight: 148 lbs

Personality: Blaine is a very happy, cheerful and energetic person who outwardly displays this, including his love of music. He likes to bring a positive energy to everyone he encounters, trying to make the best out of every situation. Fighting, dancing and making music are all good times to him. His main hobby is DJing and he loves creating music. If he wasn't going to become a hunter, he was probably going to try and become some sort of DJ superstar. He's a bit cocky, but more headstrong if anything. A trait he sees as determination is more likely stubborn recklessness if anything, but one thing is for sure, he's gonna get back up.

Weapon: In melee form, his weapons are two yellow and orange tonfas.
Weapon Name: Blaine's weapon is called "Amber Melody"
Weapon Functions: His metal tonfas have a flintlock pistol mode, where he slides the handle backs. Clicking them back, the trigger flicks out of the handles. Fortunately, it does not use the same reload as a flintlock pistol would use. Instead, Blaine uses red dust cartridges instead, which slides into the bottom of the handle.

Armor/ Clothing: See appearance. Wears brown jeans with orange stripes that run down the sides, accompanied with black boots on the bottom half.
Semblance Name: Bass Control
Semblance: In short, Blaine can control soundwaves. For example, he can quieten the shot of his pistol, or project his voice into a concentrated force to push people back. People would not go flying like some sort of Fus Ro Dah. Blaine can't knock people down, but it could certainly slow someone down, like a strong gust of wind. Another example is mimicking the sound of a branch snap, to distract his enemy. He has to actually make the noise, so he can't control the sound something or someone else makes.

Strengths: Making music, resilient, good stamina, good blocking technique.
Weaknesses: He's not incredibly acrobatic. By no means slow, but he won't be doing elegant backflips like Ren. He also has a tendency to take the blow for someone else, part of his reckless nature. Blaine will happily jump in front of an attack to defend someone else, but this will most likely get him caught in more trouble, or a worse situation.

Bio: Blaine's life was very average, apart from all of the fights he got in at school. In his case though, he never started them, just jumping in when people picked on his friends. Of course he got in trouble, but it's a trait that stuck with him. However, as this continued. It made him realise that some people just couldn't defend themselves.

Blaine grew up in Vale, his parents living comfortable lives and comfortable jobs too. However, they were not very pleased when Blaine would come home with a black eye with the same old excuse of "They started it." It was time for a new outlet. His dad took Blaine shopping to look at CD's, holotapes and more that were related to music. It was then that his father told him another value that he lives by.

"Son, there's more than one way to communicate. Music is what feelings sound like."

Blaine was hooked, and although his dad showed him the classics, the would-be hunter much preferred the newer sounds of techno and electronic music in all of it's forms. At 14, Blaine had gotten an entire DJ set for his birthday as it was the one thing he wanted. This DJ set goes with him wherever he goes. Between learning how to fight at Signal Academy, and learning how to create music, it was only a matter of time before Blaine started applying to become what he really wanted. Music was great, and was never leaving his life, but there were still people that can't defend themselves. It was time to learn how to become a real hunter.

Name: Noir Black
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Species: Human.
Face: Angular face, sharp chin, small forehead.
Hair: Ink Black. She has long silky hair, it is straight and does not curl, easily past her breast.Yet for the most part, she has her hair in a ponytail.
Eyes: Her Iris is Ink Black, round, yet narrow eyes.
Skin: Paper White.

Frame: She is somewhat stock with her thick legs, has a B cup sized bust.
Height: 5'7
Weight: 152 lbs

Personality: Noir is very nosy to the point where everyone can get the impression they are under investigation. In fact, it pretty much can summarize her. But aside from her inquisitive traits, she can seem like a bit of a tomboy due to her responses. She is quick to do the right thing, and twice as fast to anger due to her passion and integrity.

Weapon: A Tommy-Gun with a Bayonet.
Weapon Name: Vale Typewriter.
Weapon Functions: Fires at a high speed, has stabbing capabilities, and that is really it. Just a Gun with a Bayonet.

Armor/ Clothing: Noir wears one outfit, and one outfit only. She wears black Stockings, Black Dress with White Ascents, there is however a sash that goes over waist that is styled like a ribbon, she also has a ribbon that goes over scarf that goes over her hair, she wears sunglasses with it. Her shoes consist of one inch heeled Night shoes. Not to mention her black silk gloves that go to her elbows.

Semblance Name: Out of Sight.
Semblance: Noir enters the shadows of nearby people, and objects to where she is invisible to others, this allows her to sneak into the action, as well as out of the action.

Strengths: Noir is a great shot at Close to Medium range, great at stealth, and has a powerful backstab. Has a good stride when she starts moving. Killer Roundhouse.

Weaknesses: Not the greatest of One on One styled battles where she is out in the open, lacks far range capabilities, not physical great. Practically no defenses.

Bio: Noir grew up in Vale with her family, she helped her father run a comic book store before it became rundown due to digital media becoming the next big thing. Due to this, her family had to separate, she however went with her father who was a part time detective. For years her father investigated the White Fang and the Dust Runners; a group of thieves pillaging supplies of dust, many times the tracks went bare, and would return empty handed.

Noir however helped her father when she was forced into uncomfortable situations where members of the police force's families were placed in danger. As a typical cliche, there was always some form of negotiation. With safety ensued, her father questioned what she could recall, sights, sounds, smells and feelings. She could recall them all, to the point where she had no problem sketching her descriptions out. These small things alone helped her father get back in business. For a few years, she attended Signal, did well, and off to the side, she'd occasionally draw arts of a sort. It helped her find peace and stay connected to her father... She was a bit of a writer to the side as well... With stories of her father's misadventures on the force, she was inspired to make her own comics, even if it meant it would be exclusively digital media.

As time went on, she'd witnessed things she could not deny, things that were seen as outlandish. With her cooperation, she helped her father identify these crimes so she could better help those in need, so no one would suffer at the hands of criminals. Eventually she snooped to the point where she found the most incriminating of clues that would lead to a bigger breakthrough... The Seedy Underbelly's biggest contributors... Her life was threatened, and she figured the best way no one would get hurt, was by leaving.

To this day, she still holds facts she can only describe, taste and feel. To become better capable, that was her goal, it was also in her agenda to help bring this corporation to light, like a shadow before the sun.

Name: Julio Taiyou
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Species: Faunus - Monkey

Appearance
Hair: He is blond and his hair is usually being held down by his cap. When he removes it though, it’s usually unkempt as he makes no attempts to fix it.
Eyes: Emerald green
Skin: He has fair skin, bordering pale thanks to he always wears his cap and jacket everywhere

Frame: He has an average body build with hints of muscle in his arms and legs because he likes running and climbing trees. He has a prehensile yellow tail which he frequently uses. His past shines through his posture, it is very disciplined, just like how soldiers look in the presence of their superior.
Height: 5’7”
Weight: 145 lbs

Personality: Julio is mostly seen by himself. He doesn’t like crowds very much after all, makes him a little lightheaded when there isn’t enough space for him to move. Although, this doesn’t mean that he’s anti-social. He can be easily approached to ask for help or questions and he will help you with anything you need help with as long as he can do it. He can talk with strangers too, quite well in fact. He can ease into any conversation you throw at him. He just appreciates some alone time where he can relax and rethink his whole life… and then fall asleep in the process. That’s another habit of his, falling asleep almost anywhere if he so wishes to. He is easily woken up by alarming sounds [rustling of leaves, shouting, extremely quick footsteps, etc.] but other than those, he’s asleep.

Old habits die hard though. His speech is somewhat formal, as if he is always talking to a superior or something, even when casually conversing with someone. He tries his best to avoid this but it just happens. Any words or tone that is akin to “Attention!” gets his full interest and he goes full-soldier mode until he realizes that he isn’t in Atlas anymore.

Weapon: It’s basically a sniper rifle with a white line in the middle which changes color when it changes dust cartridges
Weapon Name: Funesti Decus
Weapon Functions: The rifle is dust compatible making it extra deadly. Inside the rifle is a rotating dust compartment [fire (explosion), ice, gravity, lightning and wind] so he doesn’t have to repeatedly reach for a new compartment. The rifle is built specifically for him which focuses on power and accuracy. It can change into an automatic assault rifle that can still be fitted with dust although it loses its ability to shoot accurately at long-distances so he saves this for close ranged combat.

Armor/ Clothing: Julio always wears his signature blue sweater and black cap whenever he goes out and matches it with his cargo pants. He also wears black combat gloves. It’s nothing expensive. Although the most defining feature of his clothing is the Altesian Guard symbol on his cap that is visible even when he wears his hood and then another on his right glove. He wears a belt with a lot of pockets where he stores dusts.
Semblance Name: “Second Life”
Semblance: Apparently, Julio was a special case. Instead of learning how to manipulate his aura into a more offensive type, it directly applies to his ‘life points’ or aura. To put it simply, he has more aura than most but that can’t be registered into the tournament machine that keeps track of their aura. So when he seemingly goes past the red zone, it goes back to half of his health essentially ‘resurrecting’ him in a competition.

Strengths:

• Marksman - Given that his weapon is a sniper rifle, he can accurately shoot at many things, even while they are moving. He can also shoot while he is upside down. It is one of his tactics that when someone presumably shoots at him while he’s atop a tree branch, he wraps his tail around the branch and then swings down, shoots and leaves.
• Reaction speed - He has great reaction time which he truly needs so he can react to surprise attacks
• Alertness - He never lets down his guard in a battle and tries to keep track of everything around him. Of course, someone can still get past his alertness, especially while shooting.
• Dust Knowledge - He knows a lot of things about dust and their mixes. When in a pinch, he sometimes uses dust crystals in their pure and volatile form so he keeps them in pouches.

Weaknesses:

• Unarmed - You catch him without a gun, he’s practically done for. Although he can distract you with dust, it isn’t all that powerful and you can still react fast enough to know what he’s reaching for and to quickly incapacitate him.
• Close Quarter Combat - He tries to keep his distance from an enemy by shooting at them but once they get too close, they can quickly land blow after blow if he can’t block with his gun
• Claustrophobia - When he doesn’t have enough space, he gets unnerved and soon, very panicked.
• Dust - Dust doesn’t always follow his orders and can backfire on him when he’s not concentrating enough. For example, a crystal fire dust can explode right in his face instead of the enemy’s.

Bio: Julio was raised in Atlas, born under Faunus parents. His father is part of the military and has a pretty high rank. Originally, it was looked down upon to have a faunus with that kind of rank but he soon proved himself to be both loyal and responsible earning many people’s respect. His mother, on the other hand, was an ex-huntress who lost both of her legs a little time before Julio was born. From a young age, he was already trained under the strict supervision of his father. His father wanted him to be just like him, a soldier of either the military or a hunter. Although others may disagree, Julio never found any hint of love from his father. All he saw was another soldier. But he had all the attention of his mother… that was until his sister was born and then her affection turned to her.

His childhood wasn’t the best and his family wasn’t the greatest, but he still persevered. Everything he wanted was a pat on the head from his father at least, but that never came. His father saw excellence in his marksmanship so put all of his training to perfecting his aim. Julio never had any friends during these times so in his free time, he would dabble in dust. It took him years just to activate the crystal dust to use it while it wasn’t ammo for his gun.

Seven years after the Vault was formed, his father was sent there to do a regular inspection. His father took Julio with him and then off to Vault they went. After the inspection, his father left Julio in another Atlas family in Vault and left. His reasoning was that Julio will attend the academy there and help Vault’s defenses, this was the family’s contribution. The first few days, he was depressed but still practiced every day.

But his new family was very kind to him. Julio was never used to this kind of attention and love. It was as if they were his parents and not those back in Atlas. They treated him as one of their own. It was a human family too. They thought him a bunch of things that had nothing to do with proper studies and military, but rather the more everyday stuff. This was when Julio learned how to interact with people.

But his father’s orders still stand and he was sent to the Lustre Academy to study and become a proper hunstman. Although Julio still keeps in contact with his younger sister back in Atlas but only in secret.

Name: Chamoisee Lacaune
Nicknames: Chami
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Species: Faunus. Sheep.
Face: Very thin and somewhat effeminate with a pointed chin. There is a small beauty mark beneath his left eye, though that’s a somewhat minor feature compared to the long droopy cream colored ears framing his face or the tiny horns poking out from his forehead. ‘Suffers’ from a bad case of resting bitch face.
Hair: Tightly curled cream colored hair. Tends to keep it short due to its tendency to fro out.
Eyes: Green
Skin: Olive skinned.

Frame: Chami is a rather coltish young man. Tall and thin, though not having quite grown in the muscles needed to balance out his lankiness.
Height: 6’1
Weight: 145 lb (65.8 kg)

Personality: Chami is a soft spoken person who is a bit…sheepish, if you would. He finds it a monumental task to converse with people and not resort to two to three word responses. This, combined with his aforementioned chronic resting bitch face syndrome, can sometimes lead people to initially think of him as hostile or agitated. He tries to assure people with the occasional joke or quip to ease tension, to varying degrees of success.
Honesty and pragmatism are also things he values highly. He is blunt and forward with his feelings and opinions with those he considers friends (for better or for worse) and its frankly comical at how awful of a liar he is. When it comes to problems, he often prefers the most immediate and direct solution, as over analyzing the issue leaves him anxious and impatient.

Weapon: A pair of dull gold colored gauntlets covering the arms and shoulders (with conductive ram heads on the knuckles) and a pair of matching boots reaching up to just above the knee.
Weapon Name: Jetstream Aries
Weapon Functions: Using micro dust thrusters housed in the ankles, elbows and shoulders, Chami uses his weapons to charge down his opponents and deliver more kinetic punch to his….well punches and take full advantage of his semblance (see below). However, it has zero ranged capability, Chami having sacrificed that option to reinforce the weapons internal systems so it could handle the massive stresses of routine sudden acceleration, shock, high temperatures, and deceleration. While it was built to synergize with his semblance (see below), physical limitations still exist, as excess heat from using his semblance requires time to dissipate (30 seconds to a minute an a half depends on how often its been used recently) or risk catastrophic damage to the weapon.

Armor/ Clothing: Outside of school uniforms, Chami perfers to stick with good old fashioned plain T-shirts and blue jeans. Hard to beat the classics after all. While hunting, however, he opts for simple black jeans and a sturdy gray thermal sweater (Jetstream Aries is ostentatious enough on its own.)
Semblance Name: Android Dream
Semblance: Chami can convert the immediate force acting on his body into electrical energy. That’s right. He is the electric sheep, albeit conditionally. Firstly, the forces acting on him must be significant (he doesn’t generate electricity from gravity or someone gently tapping his shoulder for example). Secondly, this electrical energy cannot be stored, it is either discharged or it will hurt him and the range is barely beyond his skin. While in theory it could be used in a defensive manner, in practice it is simply not practical. As stated, it is the /immediate/ force acting on his body, meaning he’d have to active it every time he is struck(and at the exact moment he was struck), and even then he’d still be stuck with a charge he could not get rid of and be hurt anyway. As a result, he uses his semblance exclusively for offense and built his weapon to synergize with this as much as possible.

Strengths:
-Mid to close range combat: His weapons high mobility and damage make him a very scary front line fighter to deal with.
-Apply directly: Understands the value of the direct approach and brute force and how to effectively apply it.
-Is a sheep: dude. Look at him. He’s fluffy and adorable. How could you not want this guy around? Are you sick or something?
Weaknesses:
-Border line Baaautistic: He’s not much of a talker. He’s certainly friendly; just don’t expect him to bust out any award winning oratory anytime this millennia.
-Extremely close quarters: His weapon essentially fires him around at high velocity, which is very hard to do in a small hallway without putting yourself into a wall.
-Physics: limitations on materials and the laws of reality still apply. His weapon gets hot and risks major damage if he tries to pump his semblance through it too often. His thrusters are also not magic, if he’s flying head first into a wall, he’s not going to stop on a dime.
-No Range, no life: He can close the distance quickly, but that’s about all he can do with someone engaging in a long range battle.

Bio: Chamoisee Lacaune is the son of Briggs ‘Thunder Knuckle’ Lacaune. A man know for three things. Firstly, the intrepid and fearless nature that he showed during the first decade of settlement in Vault. Having brought his timid son through the vast majority of it. And lastly for having the most inappropriate nickname among the hunters, as he does not have a fist based weapon, nor does he make use of thunder dust.
Both Lacaune’s were from Vale originally, Briggs (a single father) made a modest living as a hunter, though struggled to gain significant success. When the Vault territory opened up, Briggs picked up his son and launched himself at taming the territory with a fervor (or a lack of caution some claim) not seen in many other hunters at the time and managed to secure a sizable chunk of territory (and no minor celebrity for himself).
But with success comes sacrifice, as neither father nor son saw much of each other during this long ten year stretch. Their relationship cooled significantly, and while it never froze over completely, Chami feels that his choice to enroll at Lustre was more a matter of making his dad notice him at all, rather than making him proud.

Name: Fluores Verdalia. (Basically an altered Fluorescent Green/Verde)

Age: 17

Gender: Female

Species: Half-Faunus(Cat on her mother's side) Human genes dominant.

-Height:5’10”

-Weight:175lbs

-Eyes: Lime Green.Eyes have a slightly upward slanted angle to them.

-Skin color: Fairly pale due to sticking inside most of her free time, tinkering on some new object of interest.

-Face: Her eyes are what draw in most people, usually alert and examining whatever has caught her attention for the moment. A small nose precariously holds a pair of glasses on her face. Very little make up is ever applied, save for formal events.

-Hair: Wears long to hide her ears, or lack thereof. Neon Green, gradually fading about mid back and becoming white at the end. For this reason rarely wears her hair back.

-Physique: Fluores has a lean build. She is mostly leg. Small hint of muscle. C-cup.

-Aura:Her aura is Neon Green, with a pulsing ring of white traveling from the bottom up. The pulse of white speeds up when her aura is used more liberally, the frequency a good indicator I how fast she may be burning through it.

Personality: If one were to describe Fluores in a single word, Curious would probably be the first to come to mind, though lazy (”Efficient!”) would be following closely behind. Fluores holds an almost uncontrollable urge to know, always taking things apart and examining them down to their core, both metaphorically and literally when possible. This can sometimes cause her to become unaware of boundaries, though she is rather self conscious of this should someone bring attention to her odd ways. This trait is amplified immensely should her equipment become damaged or unusable at anytime, becoming highly anxious and prone to stress, her reliance on it having made them into a kind of security blanket of sorts.

Weapon: Neon Green Hardlight formed beast like claws on both her arms and legs, forming gauntlets reaching up to her elbows and greaves covering her knees. These are emitted from circuitry and hardware running from her gloves and kneesocks. She can use the hardened photons themselves to send out bursts of beams for distance attacks, but after a few shots the limbs will need a few seconds to reform, leaving her weaponless for a short time. These blast are effective up to mid-range, quickly losing their stability much farther after that point.

Weapon Name: Party Animal

Weapon Functions: Floures carries around raw crystals of dust, generally a cheaper form of dust rather than the refined stuff used for most weapons. Able to easily apply them by simply holding them between her claws and the hardlight energy absorbing the dust energy itself into it for a few minutes. Can also be used as a foci for her semblance, allowing her hands to take th attributed of the dust imbued.

Gravity Dust:

Party Animal-Allows her to either increase or decrease her own weight.

Reach-Allows her to increase or decrease the weight of whatever she holds in her "hands."

Lightning Dust:

Party animal-adds shock damage to her attacks, as well as tripleing the times she can use its ranger functions before needing to reform them.

Reach- Vastly increases the speed that her "hands" move, as well as the speed that pull either her or her target, becoming hard for one to follow with their eyes.

Armor/ Clothing: Wears an open knee length lab coat with the Atlesian Military symbol emblazoned on the right breast pocket. She has modified it slightly to split the coats tail up to her waist, allowing her own to come through the split. Floures normally wears a pair of black shorts,along with lime green kneesocks, the material seeming to be durable yet elastic. Fingerless elbow length gloves made from a durable fabric black as well. Both the knee socks and the gloves have what seem to be various strands of thread that shimmer when the light hits it just right as a result of her weapon being integrated into them. A white tank top with her symbol upon it.She wears an array of various bracelets on her left arm.She wears a pair of small rectangular glasses, the frames are a lime green, and the earpieces being white. She wears a necklace on a simple chain with a bell charm. A simple pair of black flats completes the outfit, the whole thing geared towards comfort rather than fashion.

When wearing the Vault Uniform, she still wears her lab coat.

-Gadgets (if any):Has hard light hairband with 2 triangular metal frames that creates a pair of slightly translucent Neon Green cat ears, as well as a dull grey belt with a long knee length side extending from behind her, creating a highly flexible slightly translucent Neon Green tail. She can change the form of these by selecting a default setting that she's programmed, or a completely new one after a few days of writing new code for the form, though nothing too far from the base frames. They have been programmed to respond to her brainwaves and will move and react in line with her own subconscious.

These serve to basically replace her hearing and offset her disability. Tail is used to help correct her balance as a lack of an inner ear has made her equilibrium sketchy at best. They started out rather utilitarian in the beginning, made by her father, but as she grew older she began tinkering with them, stylizing and upgrading them. While they allow for a higher hearing sensitivity and increased sense of balance than normal, she is effectively crippled without them, not having needed to survive without them for years.They are currently on Mark VIII

Semblance Name: Reach

Semblance: Can basically increase the length of her reach through a phantasmal hand that extends from her arms, mimicking her arms motion.Depending on the weight and stability of the item, she can either throw or retrieve it, with solid items like buildings/Trees/Large Grimm instead pulling her along. Can extend up to 50ft. When used while her gauntlets act as a dust foci, her hands may take on the properties of the dust. Tends to use mainly Gravity dust and Lightning dust. She will often use it to zip about the battle field, landing anything from a glancing blow to a clothesline if she's feeling dramatic as she zips around.

-Activation Cue: An aural copy of her arm appears, extending from there, though a stream(tether, line?) of aura connects it to her, only the hand can interact with objects.

Strengths: With her years doing maintenance on the equipment to counter her disability, as well as making Party Animal, she is well versed in weapons repair and maintenance, as well as general repair. Her acrobatic fighting style, mixed with the mobility of her semblance can make her rather difficult to hit.

Weaknesses: Once her Aura is depleted, Fluores is not the most durable off fighters, unlikely to take more than a few hits before going down. The years of relying on her ears and tail to offset her disability mean that should they ever be taken out in a fight, she is literally crippled. As well as the physical issues, the ears and tail now act as a sort of security blanket, making her prone to anxiety and panic without them.

Bio: Fluores was born to a Jasmine and Glade Verdelia, a Huntress and Atlesian Military Researcher respectively. Fluores had the misfortune to be the victim of a genetic deformity known as anotia at birth, her ears (human) having not formed. For the first formative years of her life, she lived in a world of silence, unable to even hear her own name, as well as having been unable to stand on her own till she was three due to her lack of an inner ear effectively crippling her sense of balance. Through years of trial and error, her father spent any time away from work trying to find a way to help his daughter, writing code after code in an attempt to recreate a sense of hearing. It wasn't until she was 4 that her father finally finished the Mark I, the world seemed to open up to Fluores. Glade had taken an abandoned project he'd worked on early in his career, meant to enhance soldiers perception of the battlefield, developed to counter the natural abilities of many Faunus during the Faunus rebellions. While it had been scrapped, being deemed to cost heavy for mass use, Glade was how it may be modified to correct his daughter's disability.

Fluores's was largely raised by her father, her mother often gone, the life of a Huntress necessitating she be gone more often than not. However when her mother was home, Floures was regaled as she acted out tales of facing down hordes of the incoming Grimm, tales surely exaggerated, but Fluores are them up with gusto, always excited to hear the new tales her mother might have brought back. While her mother was away, her father found he could not always be there should something happen to her equipment, and began teaching her early on how to make small repairs to them, finding his daughter to be a quick learner. After a few years, she had found she took to the maintenance and repair rather quickly, soon outpacing her father on upgrading the equipment as she was able to put her full attention to the gear that she relied so heavily upon. It wasn't long till she had her own little workshop set up in the family garage, steadily improving on the original design and stylizing to make them uniquely her own.

As Vault was in its early stages, Fluores’s father offered to help in the formative years of the kingdom, leading advances in the kingdoms security systems, while her mother aided in holding back Grimm attacks.As Fluores watched the kingdom grow around her, she felt a deep pride for this new safehold as the Grimm were pushed back. As she watched it become a budding new kingdom and listened in awe of the stories mother told her about fending of the Grimm, it was little suprise once she announced her intentions to follow in her mother's footsteps. Having now graduated from her battle school now, she awaits with mixed feelings of excitment and nervousness as she heads to Lustre.

Name: Venator Aurea (Golden Hunter in Latin)
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Species: Canine Faunus (Wolf)
Face: Sharp features, small scar through left eyebrow.
Hair: Black, falling half-way down his neck. Combed down but slightly messy.
Eyes: Gold/Bronze.
Skin: Pale/fair.

Frame: Slim but well-built.
Height: 1.85m (6'01")
Weight: 75kg (<12St)

Personality: Because of his past, Venator is quite a closed person, but he hides it under a false confidence, sarcasm and a generally easy-going personality. He is proud of his Faunus heritage, but doesn't begrudge those that aren't. He is quite a patient person as well, as it takes a lot to get him riled up.

Weapon: Assault Rifle/Sword
Weapon Name: Renegade
Weapon Functions: In sword form, Renegade has a variable dust chamber that can cloak the blade in an elemental power, depending on the dust type selected. To change the dust type or refill the sword's internal tank, It is sheathed and the refill type is selected. When it is placed in its sheath, it can also connect to the firing mechanism and the handle slides down and along the weapon to form an assault rifle similar to the ones used by the Atlas. It fires 7.62mm rounds at 600 rpm, which can also be infused with Dust to increase it's effectiveness or give them special effects like incendiary or cryogenic rounds. The sword is black, with golden edges on the blade, handguard and pommel. The rifle has black body (white parts) with a gold barrel and gold trim (grey parts), and has a gold holographic sight on the top. The weapon holds four types of dust that it can cycle thought: Fire, Ice, Lightning and Gravity (For concussive/knockback effect). He also carries grenades filled with Fire, Lightning and Steam (seperately), that can be used to burn, shock enemies or create smokescreens respectively.



Armor/ Clothing: Casually, Venator wears a style that consists of black formal boots, a grey shirt with the collar unbuttoned, a gold tie worn slightly loosely, black waistcoat, black trousers and a black formal coat.
In combat, he wears high-tech armour on his arms and legs (only the parts below the elbows and knees).
Aura: Gold
Semblance Name: The Hunt
Semblance: A combination of an enhancement and a summoning semblance. When activated, he summons a ghost-like wolf formed from his aura. This wolf can track a person's aura or a Grimm's darkness, and can attack an enemy using its teeth or claws. It is slightly stronger than a Beowulf, and take slightly more damage before it dissipates. He can also merge with the wolf to sharply improve his senses, reflexes and slightly increase his physical strength to peak but not super-human level. He can sense traces of a person's aura or Grimm's darkness, but not as strongly as the wolf.

Strengths:

• Versatile with Weapons
• Fairly athletic
• Good teamwork/leader

Weaknesses:

• Dislikes authority
• Not a strong fighter without a weapon
• Not confident leading more than small groups of people

Bio: A runaway from Atlas, Venator was orphaned before he could remember and never knew his real parents. He instead grew up in various orphanages and foster homes, but was moved a lot because of fights or bullying. Proud of his nature as a Faunus, he got into a lot of trouble with other kids and even some adults because of it and was constantly in trouble with the police. At age 14, he smuggled aboard a transport vessel and ended up in Vault, where he quickly fell in with a group of faunus teens. After he got them out of a serious problem with a gang of anti-faunus teens, he quickly became their leader. He stayed as the group 'boss' for 3 years until an argument between a faunus teen and a human teen escalated to a full scale brawl and the police was involved. When Venator stepped up to take the blame, the only way to avoid time in prison was to join Lustre. He was moved to the student dorms shortly before the arrival of the new students and his team completed the introductory trial separately. He is now Leader of Team VALT (Valentine).

Name: Azura Cerulean (Blue, Blue in plainspeak: Guess the theme XD)
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Species: Human
Face: Azura has remarkably clear skin and a face that's just in-between cute and beautiful, no features seem to stick out, rather they all just seem to fit together

Hair: Azura had dyed her hair a light blue, it hangs to about her waist in the back and is cut short in the front and to the sides. Azura always takes good care of her hair so it’s very smooth. It is generally in a French braid and when prepared for combat it is tucked under her trenchcoat

Eyes: Azura's eyes are the reason for her name, they are a very intense shade of deep dark blue.
Skin: White, slightly tanned, clear.

Frame: Azura is a little on the short side but her body is rather proportionate.
Height: 5 foot 5 inches
Weight: 54.4 Kgs or about 120 pounds

Personality: Azura is a very energetic person, she's eager to try new thing and make friends. On occasion her enthusiasm can be annoying to those more reclusive and Azura seems to not realize when she's going overboard. She's very sincere in everything she does and believes everyone else to be as well, though this can lead to be her being a little naive. In the event Azura has to fight something or someone seriously it will be as though a switch has been flipped. Her normally vibrant personality will vanish to be replaced with a calm individual with is focused on nothing except combat, almost like an alternate personality, Azura refers to it as going on auto-pilot.

Weapon: Azura uses a black naginata.
Weapon Name: Solitude
Weapon Functions: Solitude only differs from a standard naginata in that the blade can be fired forward with surprising force and speed and retracted by a chain. This is useful for getting an extra bit of range in an attack but Azura can also pull herself to something by retracting the chain given the blade is suitably wedged.

Armor/ Clothing: Azura tends to dress casual in bright colors but practically. Expect shorts or jeans and a colorful shirt. If expecting combat Azura will wear a thick trench coat that provides more protection than one would suspect: along with black legging and metal armguards hidden beneath her coat.
Semblance Name: Asura
Semblance: Azura has a fine amount of control over her aura and her semblance allows her to generate up to four additional 'aura arms' that must be come from some part of her body (EX: can appear from legs, back, fingers) and can't stretch beyond her normal arm's length. These arms have about as much strength as Azura does; the only other notable difference is that they are remarkably sturdy. Azura can also create standard aura weapons for them to wield, but this if more draining then creating the arms. If she lost her own weapon she could also use one of these aura weapons herself, though it would be less effective than using her own weapon.

Strengths: Azura is rather strong, both mentally and physically. Her shortness and happy nature may cause one to find both of these unlikely, but its true, she is remarkably resilient in both respects. Her personality generally allows her to make friends easily and she has no trouble dealing with most people. Azura's semblance gives her a remarkable amount of diversity in combat and with her 'switch on' she had no trouble using it to its fullest extent.

Weaknesses: Azura is a bit naive at times, not understanding when she is being tricked or when someone has bad intentions. Her general exuberance can be exhausting at times and Azura doesn't have much of an off switch. In combat Azura's only real weakness would be a lack of long-range attacks.

Bio: Azura grew up in Vault for most of her life as a single child with only faint memories of her father, who died as a Hunter defending Vault during its creation. Her mother had a civilian job but made sure to educate Azura in how to be a hunter so she could follower her father's footsteps, as she always wanted to. Surprisingly growing up with only a mother seemed to have little poor effect on Azura, she was always sociable, ready to apply herself, and overall a good kid. She of course always wanted to be a hunter to honor her dad so it's unsurprising that she ended up at Lustre Academy.
