Name: Goldlewis Dickinson
Origin: Guilty Gear Strive
Appearance: In his original form, Goldlewis had light blond hair arranged in a quiff and a thick beard. Though he wore a pair of glasses with the left side blacked out with a lipstick mark, silver bolts and small text on it, both of his blue eyes are functional. He was a large, wide-set man, 7 feet tall and 566 lbs. Due to his fusions, he’s gotten a little shorter and lighter, now standing at 6’8” and 499 lbs. His outfit is more militarized with camo coloration, heavy combat boots, and some black high-tech armor with red lights and skull designs. His beard is longer and hair a bit whiter, though his pompadour also extends a little higher.
Personality: A reliable and formidable man whose presence is a pillar of support to the security and authority of his side, Goldlewis' sincere and good-natured traits have earned the trust of his friends, who know him to be both loyal and funny. He is also well-known for his excellent judgment and ability to lead, based on his extensive combat experience. He also seems to be punctual and exacting, expecting the same from his subordinates, and though quite fearsome when irritated, he is always professional. Although his hobby is searching for and collecting unidentified organisms, Goldlewis doesn't believe in aliens or ghosts, insisting that the coffin he carries around contains a cryptid, even as the entity's features point to it being an extraterrestrial. Due to fusions, he’s a bit more serious and critical, more prone to yelling while fighting, and flexing
Background: Little is known about his past. Born after his older brother, Goldlewis' career took on a different path. During the Crusades,[note 2] he joined the military to fight the Gear menace and met Colin Vernon, becoming close friends with him. Unlike Vernon, however, Goldlewis remained in the service after the war ended, and would become the first active-duty soldier to serve as the Secretary of Defense in U.S. history, taking the position during the presidency of Erica Bartholomew. Also becoming friends with her, he has become a "mainstay of the nation" remaining in his post after Vernon took over from Erica. Though the details are unknown, at some point he became estranged from his family due to hiding his "true feelings" from them, believing it was for the best.
In the Now: The story of Goldlewis in the World of Light began in Midgar, where he served as Secretary of Defense under Vernon Groubitz in the previous Administration. Following the next election, Vernon was replaced by the Shinra Administration, but as he returned to civilian life he took his Special Operations Unit with him. It continued to operate for a time, trying to improve things for Midgar’s citizens at the ground level, but eventually mounting frustration would convince Goldlewis to pursue other options. During his travels he encountered the Seekers of Light in Al Mamoon, in the Sandswept, where he assisted in the suppression of a terrorist group before being destoried by the Seekers. Armed with the truth about his twisted reality, he returned to Midgar to free his compatriots, then bided his time until the Seekers came to town. From that point he lent his strength to the campaign against Midgar, assisting mostly with operations involving the Psych-OSF. After participating in the battle against Midgar’s Guardian, he resolved to join the Seekers and continue hunting Guardians elsewhere.

Specialty: Unleashing overwhelming strength and firepower to lock targets down and batter them into submission
Inventory:

• High-tech glasses with a built-in night vision and laser targeting system
• Stopwatch
• Handkerchief
• Shotgun Gauntlets, which only get free ammo in Heat Mode
• Area 51 High Security Coffin (with UMA inside)
  
  • Heavy minigun 'Skyfish'
  • Spiked rotor mine 'Thunderbird'
  • Airborne Railcannon 'Mothman'
  • Unmounted Harpoon Gun 'Yowie'
  • Rubber chicken
  • Hand mirror
  • White flag
  • Origami paper

Lv: 8
EXP: 78/80

Skills:

• Superhuman Strength (SoAD) - The physical power Goldlewis possesses is greater even than his incredible musculature might imply. He can lift, carry, and even swing very heavy objects, his punches and headbutts can contend with metal, and his might can guard crush even superhuman opponents
• Fighter's Spirit (SoAD) - As someone who fought against Gears and other supernatural foes in his magic-powered world, Goldlewis enjoys a few small but handy benefits. He can jump and maneuver in the air better than a normal person, able to not just double jump, but also airdash either forward or backward once per airtime. While blocking, he also reduces even heavy blows to mere chip damage
• Beloved Statesman (SoAD) - Though his days of warfare might be behind him, Goldlewis is ever the soldier, and seldom the politician. He's an astute, smart, and capable leader and fighter, able to rally people together and make the most of them
• Boundary Break (SoAD) - empowers Goldlewis and his UMA to perform a special Dust attack. It's an overhead normally, but if it's charged and it hits an opponent, it launches his opponent much, much higher and farther than normal. After launching an opponent with Dust or through a wall, Goldlewis can perform a single super jump to pursue his launched enemy
• Gamma Howl (High Tech Annihilator) - grants access to Jack-8’s Gamma Howl power stance, which can be transitioned to from certain techniques, as well as the techniques specific to Gamma Howl, many of which have useful properties. Gamma Howl can soak a hit, and it becomes Gamma Charge if it does, strengthening the next move used from that stance

Weaknesses:

• Lackluster Defense - ironically, the Secretary of Absolute Defense has it pretty bad when he's on the receiving end. His large size and the relative slowness and preciseness of his fastest attacks, together with his lack of meterless reversal or other 'get off me' technique, mean that he can be bullied, especially by nimble or long-ranged opponents. Offense is the best defense, after all
• Rock Thrower - poor predictable Goldlewis, always picking rock. In a fight, his game plan is somewhat simple: run all over the opposition and beat them down with oppressive strength. Unlike other large fighters, he lacks either armor on his attacks or potent command grabs, leaving him with just basic mixups plus item use. This means he's susceptible to being counterpicked on paper
• Mighty Glacier - putting aside his airdash and double jump, his overall mobility is pretty low. While the sight of Goldlewis running at you can be terrifying, he isn't that fast, he can't jump very high or climb, and he cannot move stealthily or subtly
• Feeling Low - makes the frame data on his lows worse overall and gives him a weaker high-low mix game in general

Spirits:

• Jack-8 - Fusion, grants the High Tech Annihilator class
• Hank - Fusion, grants the Support Hunter class
• Marduk - Spiritbound as a striker on a medium cooldown. He can wield his cannon, the Rage Serpent, to fire concussive volleys that deal pure physical attack in 2-round bursts. He can also call in a drone to bombard a wide area, detonating 12 weaker blasts in an area. Using the Rage Serpent or his drones builds Firepower, 1 per gunshot and 40 per drone call. Reaching 100 Firepower allows him to use Hissing in Rage on his next call-in, a withering barrage that deals heavy physical damage
• Kamael - Spiritbound as a striker. He can attack with his sickle, most effective with hooking a launched enemy back down to continue an otherwise finished combo. He can also use Circle of Life to fire off an orb of rippling energy, which rends life energy from targets hit to lower their ranged defense by 20% for 3 seconds while healing nearby allies. Finally, he can appear and, instead of performing an attack, use Nature’s Blessing to boost the damage and recovery of his next Circle of Life by 25%

Rapport:

• UMA
  
  • The creature in the coffin. This entity is capable of providing various items that far surpass the current technological level, and is forced to obey every order and demand from Goldlewis as it seems he has grasped some sort of weakness from it. Seemingly having an indeterminate form, it can manifest a number of arms for assisting or attacking alongside Goldlewis
• Sandalphon - Rank C, 5/10 REXP
  
  • The two fought as allies during the Seekers' time in Midgar, both officially joining the campaign against Galeem for the first time. As results-oriented workaholics their casual time together has been limited, but their forced partnership during Connected Climbing Chaos gave them a chance to talk. They share a mutual professional respect

Name: Ms Fortune (Nadia)
Origin: Skullgirls
Appearance:
Originally a Feral of Hispanic origin, with catlike ears and tail, Nadia has undergone some changes due to fusion, but remains relatively true to the core of who she is. Nadia stands at 5’8”, but boasts a fuller figure. Her hair is a fluffy and voluminous bob cut, and has a distinctive calico pattern, primarily cream-white but with splotches of black and orange. This includes her tail, of which she has only one. Her skin is slightly darker, and her eyes are as electric blue as a TV screen. Her current outfit is tailor-made by Yuria of Gerudo Town. She wears a dark blue, fur-lined, leather bolero jacket with a lighter blue inside and fishbone badges over a small white shirt with buttons undone, with shorts that match her jacket and a leather belt with lots of pouches. The bell on her heavy collar, like her fishbone badges, is silver, and she wears stylized black Mantread boots. Slung over the jacket is a somewhat hefty metal case, which is the storage form of her shipgirl rigging blended with her Kagari Rokushikisouken blade case
Personality: A sunny-spirited extrovert who likes making puns almost as much as making friends, Nadia is a kind-hearted but not afraid to stand up for herself or what she believes in, nor to take those who misuse their privilege or power down a peg. Though a dedicated jokester, she's also brutally creative fighter, able to come up with ideas as harebrained as they are cunning, even if she’s not the sharpest tool in the shed. Good food, sports, and small dogs headline as some of her favorite things, and she can be as generous as she is greedy, but more than anything she wants people to like her. To that end she doesn’t mind being a caricature of herself, making herself the never-say-die life of the party if it means lifting the spirits of others. Her catlike behaviors are true enough, however, and in addition to being able to fall asleep anywhere, she can be temperamental–able to change in a moment between gentle and sisterly to violently competitive
Background:

In the Now:


Job: Bloody Hellion
Specialty: Nadia is a highly sustainable, agile dexterity fighter with a focus on single-target rushdown, able to split into pieces and launch high-speed attacks to overwhelm her opponents, then destroy them with combos–be those combos long chains of attacks, or elemental reactions


Lv: 14
EXP: 49/140 (1 level upgrades stocked)



Spirits:

• Massachusetts - Fusion, gave the Battleship job
• Cat-5 - Fusion, gave the Lightning Beast job
• Kanna - Fusion, gave the Super Anthromorph job
• Ángel - Fusion, gave the Unchained Luchadora job
• Rosetta - Fusion, gave the Deadeye Huntress job
• Rhodeia of Loch - Spiritbound as a Striker. The Oceanid can spend 10 seconds to create 1-3 Hydro Mimics when summoned, the number depending on the size of the copied entity. Hydro Mimics outlast this Striker and attack independently, inflicting the Wet status. Mimics have their own health pools and explode when killed. The Oceanid has a 3-minute cooldown, and new mimics replace old ones
• Harbor Water Demon - Spiritbound as a Striker. This huge Abyssal has a 1-minute cooldown, and can be called in to provide burst damage or minions. She can lunge forward and deliver a massive double claw swipe, fire her anti-air Abyssal Aviation Battleship’s 20-inch Twin Gun Mounts, deploy 3 airborne CAT fighters, or deploy 3 Hell Dive bombers

Appearance
Ganondorf has, for the most part, retained his original physique and facial features. The plates of his armor now possess some slight dragon-themed shapes to them. In addition, their color has become something more akin to a mix of violet and purple. His right hand gauntlet now possesses a retractable claw/talon-like weapon that matches up with the newfound dragon motif. His helmet also becomes more vaguely shaped like a dragon head, its wingtips morphing into horns that protrude from the back and curve their way forward. The helmet also has an exaggerated horsetail that resembles a long tongue of purple flame.

• Currency: 993 Zenny
• Nyakuza Metro Line Passes: Yellow
• Emerald x4
• Splash Potion of Healing x1
• Twin Great Swords
• Vapor
  An ornate, but well-made Trident. 298cm in length, it was once wielded by a warrior of the Three Kingdoms.
• Sword of the Six Sages (w/ Heavy Infusion)
  The "white sword" carried by Toriel while she acted as Ganondorf's caretaker/jailer. It's one of the few weapons that can truly harm Ganondorf, but he claimed it for his own after escaping imprisonment and taking Toriel's life.
• Shade Cloak
  Cloak formed from the substance of the Abyss. Allows the wearer to dash through enemies and their attacks without taking damage.
• Phantom Familiar
  For reasons unknown, this Phantom is friendly and can even fly around during the day! It's invincible, though attacks will pass right through it so it's not usable as a meat shield, and it can teleport to its owner if separated. While passive in nature and not very intelligent, it has a hunter's instincts and can provide basic tracking and guidance functions. In a pinch, it can even be grabbed in order to serve as a glider. What a great, if somewhat creepy, pet!
• Sheet Music - Elegy of Emptiness
  An ancient scroll containing a series of notes, so ominous that just touching it is enough to make one feel uneasy. If these notes are played on an instrument, the player will 'cast off' one of their spirits as a shell, leaving it as a statue in place and disabling all attributes related to that spirit. All shells can be restored by playing the notes in reverse. These shells act as indestructible turrets that use their powers automatically, but they cannot move

• Warlock Strikes: A style of fighting in which Ganondorf channels Dark Magic into his fists, kicks, or weapons in order to empower his melee attacks. Some prominent uses of this style include: Wizard Foot, a dive kick coated in a dark aura; Gerudo Dragon, an uppercut coated with darkness; Flame Choke, a grapple move that unleashes an explosion of dark magic in the opponent's face after grabbing them; Dark Impact, focusing a massive amount of energy that is smashed into the ground for a shockwave attack; and Warlock Fist, dark magic channeled into an explosive punch.
• Phantom Ganon: Summons a horseback Phantom of himself to serve as a temporary ally in battle. Unlike Striker Spirits, Phantom Ganon is able to persist beyond a single attack, and instead only vanishes after a period of 1 minute elapses or it takes too much damage from enemy attacks. The Phantom can be summoned with or without the horse, or the horse can be summoned alone allowing Ganondorf to ride it himself as a temporary method of transportation. The horse, whether ridden by Ganondorf or Phantom Ganon, can gallop on the ground or through the air. Once summoned, the Phantom's form cannot be altered during it's duration, so it stays mounted or unmounted for the entire minute. The Phantom can only be summoned once every 5 minutes.
  
  • Spirit Fusions [+]

    Guido the Persistent and Boris
    The rider is now fully armored in slightly yellowed, engraved silver plate, with a heavy crimson cape. Both horse and rider are shrouded in red ribbons, with paper scripts stamped to their armor with seals of red wax. The eyes within their metal masks are empty. The Guido spirit confers the ability N Corp's Nail, granting the summon a giant black nail half-wrapped in crimson cloth to be wielded in his off hand. When it lands an attack, it inflicts Bleed, and at less than 50% HP the Bleed is twice as bad. This spirit also confers the weakness Hammer of the One Who Grips, making it so that when the summon is defeated, the summoner loses 45 mana/energy. The Boris spirit confers the ability Ripping Bear, which allows the summon to empower himself with a red aura that makes his next attack ignore invincibility. This spirit also confers the Weakness End of Service, which disables the summon if the summoner has no money
• Moblin Attack Force: Summons a squad of five Moblins to fight by Ganondorf's side. They can either be Spearman who attack with an infantry charge, or Archers who attack with a volley of fire arrows. Moblins are relatively weak minions that can be vanquished in about 3-5 hits. They make up for this weakness with their numbers, appearing in squads of 5 that remain in play until they are defeated, dismissed, or replaced by a fresh squad. This power has a one minute cooldown between uses, and any newly summoned Moblins will automatically replace any that are already active - meaning the summons cannot be stacked.
• Swords of Darkness: Ganondorf attacks with his swords while channeling dark energy through them. Doing so gradually builds up a "Dark Meter" that further increases his weapon attack damage. Once the meter is full, Ganondorf can spend the built up meter to unleash a powerful Dark Explosion around himself that deals heavy Dark damage within its AoE.
• King of Evil’s Trident: When wielding a trident or other polearm, Ganondorf adopts a somewhat faster fighting style than when he wields great swords, though not quite as hard-hitting. In addition, his attacks forgo being Dark elemental in favor of Lightning. This weapon style consists of quick thrusts, sweeps, and mid-range projectile attacks by way of throwing the trident. When thrown, the trident can then be used as a makeshift lightning rod that can attract powerful bolts of lightning summoned by Ganondorf's magic. Also after being thrown, the weapon can afterward be summoned back to Ganondorf's hand via summoning magic. Attacks with this type of weapon cannot build up the Dark Meter, nor does it possess any kind of chargeable meter of its own.
• Ganon Transformation: Using the Triforce of Power, Ganondorf temporarily transforms into his true form, Ganon. In this form, Ganon and his swords are much larger, and thus can deal significantly higher damage per swing at the cost of being a somewhat slower. He also gains two new attacks in the form of Thunderstrike, a strong electric energy ball fired from a charged sword swing; and Dark Breath, a powerful beam of dark energy fired from the mouth like a dragon's breath attack. The transformation lasts for one minute, similarly to the Phantom Ganon summon. But unlike the Phantom, the Ganon transformation requires a more extended period of rest before it can be used again. Also Ganondorf is only able to trigger the transformation when his health is taken down to 50% or below.
• Psycho Cut: Allows the user to concentrate and launch a blade of psychic energy. On hit it deals psi/mental damage and applies a minor slow and defense down for 3s. The mental energy required leaves the host unable to focus enough for another Psycho Cut for 6.5s.
• Abyssal Resurgence: The ability to channel and then let off a dark AoE explosion when his health reaches 1/3. Every explosion gives him a stackable (but temporary) damage buff and he takes reduced damage while channeling, though he can be interrupted.
• Warframe Energy Capacity: Ganondorf’s Energy Capacity begins at 215. Enemies can drop blue-black energy globs at a rate of 1 per every 5 normal enemies or 1 for every unique enemy. These will restore 50 energy to Ganondorf’s energy capacity upon pickup.
  
  • Renewal [+]

    Renewal (Level 1): Healing waves of energy flow outward from Ganondorf to his allies, regenerating health over time. It costs 25 Energy to activate, plus 2 Energy per second to remain activated. This will increase to 3 per second per ally while allies are actively being healed, plus an additional 1 Energy per second per summoned ally for every summoned ally actively being healed. The channeled field covers a 10 meter radius around the user, and regenerates 10% health every second for allies and 3% health every second for summoned allies. Allies at full health will additionally be cleared of all negative status effects. The field remains active either until Ganondorf runs out of Energy or until he deactivates it himself.
  • Hallowed Ground [+]

    Hallowed Ground (Level 1): Ganondorf consecrates the ground in an angle of 90 degrees in front of him spanning up to 8 meters, for 10 seconds. Enemies standing on the area of effect are dealt constant Radiation damage with a 5% Radiation status chance every half second for 10 seconds, while allies are relinquished of any negative status effects and become immune to them for as long as they are standing on the area. This costs 50 Energy to cast, and Ganondorf can have up to four active instances at once.
    
    
    • Ability Synergy [+]

      If Ganondorf or any allies affected by Renewal stands on Hallowed Ground, they will receive the Iron Renewal buff, granting them 15% damage reduction for as long as Renewal is active. Once Renewal is deactivated, the damage reduction will remain on all affected allies for 20 seconds longer.

• Triforce of Power: One of the three golden triangles that make up the all powerful Triforce. They separated into three parts the moment Ganondorf touched it, however one of those three bonded itself to his right hand. The Triforce of Power, as its name suggests, is the embodiment of raw power. It grants Ganondorf immense physical strength and durability, and is even believed to amplify his dark magic as well.
• Dark Magic: Ganondorf's upbringing has made him a powerful Warlock capable of wielding dark magic quite easily. This and the Triforce of Power has given him an extraordinary resilience against dark magic that is wielded by others.
• Commanding Presence: Ganondorf's imposing figure and physique lends itself well to creating a certain level of charisma in a looming, commandeering sort of way. He seems to have a natural gift for attracting the loyalty of monsters and other dark creatures.
• Leo: Increases size by 30 percent, and grants a wild mane of hair. Confers enough strength to smash most rocky terrains or obstacles by stomping or ramming them.
• Bullet Jump: The ability to launch into a quick slide, double jump, aim glide, wall run, wall climb, and high jump. Boosted mobility courtesy of Oberon's spirit.
• Dragon-style Spear Mastery: Enables a style of polearm combat suited for large numbers of enemies, using quick sweeping strikes with the shaft to clump enemies together for dispatch via plunges and thrusts.
• Flash Fire: Ganondorf is immune to most fire elemental damage. If he is hit by a fire elemental attack, Ganondorf's own fire elemental attacks will become 50% stronger either for the remainder of battle or until he is knocked out.

• Pride: Easily Ganondorf's most fatal flaw. His pride and arrogance can and have led him to commit unthinkable acts. And it makes him very difficult to work with.
• Lust for Power: What Ganondorf wants more than anything is to expand his own power. And he's not above using deception and manipulation in order to do it.
• Light: Just as Ganondorf's dark magic makes him incredibly resistant to darkness, it also renders him vulnerable to its opposite. Weapons and energy of pure light have a far easier time harming Ganondorf than any other kind of attack.
• Warframe Reactions: Causes a certain status affliction when affected by any two of the following elements at once: heat, cold, electricity, and poison.
• Left Hand Rule: Makes the host's left hand his dominant one, but his left arm a weak point that's more susceptible to breaking.
• Spirit is Weak: Makes the host vulnerable to other ghost/astral-type moves.
• Quantity Over Quality: Decreases the host's damage and stagger to single target elite enemies by 10%.

Strikers

• Riptor
  A genetically engineered bioweapon manufactured as a deadly weapon of war by Ultratech, combining primal savagery with cutting-edge sophistication. She has the moves Fire Mortar (lobbed fireball), Flame Carpet (short range), Shoulder Charge (has 1 hit of armor armor on the slowest/heaviest charge), Talon Rake (a pouncing slash that if blocked bounces her off for a follow up), Tail Flip (somersault tail slam that travels forward and recaptures airborne opponents), and Clever Girl (a bite grab then slam that causes a ground bounce). All of these moves are on short-medium cooldowns and she cannot take any other action.
• Blast Hornet
  A battle-ready reploid with a lower-than-average cooldown. He can perform three attacks: fly up and then divebomb with Stinger Attack, fly up and unleash a sextet of bee drones that drill into surfaces with their stingers before exploding, and Search Attack, where he targets an enemy for a second with holographic crosshairs before unleashing three seeking bee drones at a time, up to a maximum of 9 before the attack finishes. Blast Hornet takes (and confers) extra damage from gravity/force attacks.

Fusions:

• Oberon Prime
  The host is a bit smaller and slimmer, though still sturdy and strong. His armor is more exaggerated into large, intricate plates (trimmed with gold) over a sleeker, more futuristic undersuit of dark gray. His pauldrons have blunt serrations like battlements, his hair is shorter, and he's now wearing a helmet with four horns (two curved upward, two curved forward) that extends down over his nose spartan-style. Small purple lights dot his attire. This spirit confers the Strength Bullet Jump, substantially boosting the host's movement abilities. The host can launch into a quick slide, double jump, aim glide, wall run, wall climb, and high jump. This spirit also confers the weakness Warframe Reactions, causing a certain status affliction when affected by any two of the following elements at once: heat, cold, electricity, and poison.
• Artorias
  The host's build is a little narrower and less brawny, though he's a little taller. His armor now just about fully covers him, a very dark gray in color, and though his helmet is more open from the front his face is cast in darkness, and it features a plume in the back. A faded, black-stained blue is added to his cape and the other cloth elements of his outfit. His personality is a bit more doom-and-gloom. This spirit confers the Power Abyssal Resurgence, granting the host the ability to channel and then let off a dark AoE explosion when his health reaches 1/3. Every explosion gives him a stackable (but temporary) damage buff and he takes reduced damage while channeling, though he can be interrupted. This spirit also confers the Weakness Left Hand Rule, makin the host's left hand his dominant one, but his left arm a weak point that's more susceptible to breaking.

Name: Juri Han
Origin: Street Fighter
Appearance:
Personality: A cruel young woman who enjoys destroying and dominating. A hedonistic thrill-seeker with a mean streak a mile wide, Juri Han is no stranger to the physical pleasures this world has to offer. And no stranger to death and murder, either. She insults and berates most people around her for their perceived weaknesses. Spend enough time around her and one might discover the gaps in the façade. She finds her life has a lack of purpose and direction. It's her own fault because she pushes everyone away with her hideous demeanor, but she is also lonely.

Juri hates rules and being told what to do. She hates tyrants and authoritarianism. Anyone who is true to themselves and lives for themselves can earn Juri's respect, and she has worked with others in the past to achieve her own ends. Mainly power, or revenge. She has a soft spot for animals, particularly arachnids. She'll kill other killers without a second thought but tends to let other people who get in her way off with a harsh beating.

She has acted selflessly in the past, coming to the rescue of others in need. Ask her why, and risk being insulted, or assaulted should one push their luck. She leaves the truly innocent out of it, and when she spots the truly evil, they disgust her.

Despite her thuggish, short-sighted behavior, Juri is highly educated and well-read.

Juri is no stoic. She possesses an excitable, curious demeanor, if only often to find out whatever the 'problems' are and exploit them. Should something be too boring, she'll immediately discard it and try to find the next thing to entertain her. There's playfulness about her that can make her appear almost innocent. Often times she'll play up the crazy killer role, despite being quite grounded in reality. All this to say, Juri Han is a very complicated woman.

Background:Juri Han was a martial arts prodigy at a young age. Extremely studious, she worked hard to make her parents proud. Even as a young girl she couldn't deny the thrill of destroying her opponents. She loved her mother and greatly respected her father, who was renowned nation-wide in Korea for working as a criminal prosecutor. But when he went after Shadoloo, the evil Dictator M. Bison struck back. In the attack, Juri's parents were murdered, and she lost her left eye. Whatever life Juri Han could have had was over. Juri learned the only real law in this world was the law of violence. Kill or be killed.

Juri sought power, greater strength, and revenge against M. Bison. To this end she joined the rival criminal organization SIN as a researcher. She built much of the technology behind the Feng Shui Engine herself. She worked for Seth, the android. When all out war broke about between SIN and Shadaloo, Juri enjoyed the chaos, and played both sides. Eventually she betrayed Seth, killing one of his last back-up bodies, and took over. She made an attempt on M. Bison's life by herself, but failed. SIN didn't last long under her rule. Despite having actually conned, duped, and backstabbed her way into the power she claimed to be so hungry for, she quickly let it all come to ruin because of the responsibility involved and lack of direction. It's not like she actually wanted to take over the world or deal crazy psycho power drugs or run an army or whatever the hell it was evil overlords did all day. It was way too much work and not her style. After murdering anyone else who worked on the Feng Shui Engine so only she would know its secrets, she left.

Eventually M. Bison's evil schemes caught up to him, and he attracted the attention of the heroes of the world. Juri was no hero but she was an opportunist who took advantage to get revenge. While she did help save the world, and even saved some of the heroes from harm (there's nothing she hates more than brainwashing) in the end the one who got the pleasure of killing M. Bison was that goody two-shoes Ryu.

Part of her chaotic nature is sometimes doing selfless things for no reason. Why she re-programmed and resurrected Seth in a new body and let him roam free, she has no idea. Maybe it was just kinda funny?

No longer having revenge as an excuse for her schemes, she has spent her days since wandering around trying to find something to do, working contract jobs as hired muscle or assassinations. To what end, she doesn't know. There's a sense of tragedy about her, and it's becoming increasingly difficult for her to hide it.

In the Now: Juri is as aimless as ever, but the World of Light has presented her with ample opportunity for distraction. She has been going around stirring up trouble and trying to find ways to entertain herself. Naturally this means finding work to fund her habits. And with Juri almost anything is on the table.

Job: Scout
Specialty: Close-range Rushdown
Inventory: Feng Shui Engine: The artificial left eye given to her by SIN. She can use her ki to empower it for dramatic effect and returns. By itself, however, it is capable of detecting and giving her a general gauge of the power level of a sentient being she scans with it. It's also a universal input and output port for her hacking skills.

Smart Phone: A modern day cellular device capable of long ranged communication, access to networks, currency, a wide host of boring games Juri hates, camera, pictures of spiders, identification, etc.

Sports Motorcycle: For travelling around at high speed. For leisure or business.

Honorary Mafia Tommygun: Earned for her work with the Chef Mafia, a classic Chicago Typewriter to rattle rats and coppers. Or anyone else Juri feels like shooting at.

Lv: 5
EXP: 0/10
Abilities: (Powers, spells, special moves, an iconic piece of equipment, and so forth)

• Feng Shui Engine - Access to the powerful array of abilities her artificial eye grants her, including scanning for a nearby power levels and hacking, and with further level ups, super attacks and techniques.
• Fuhajin Stocks - She can enhance her special moves by doing a ki-enhanced kick. This increases the utility of her special moves in a variety of ways. She can store up to four.
• Drive Gauge - Six internal 'bars' of energy to be used for various Drive techniques. It is expended on blocking, working as a guard meter. The upside compared to say, Sakura or Karin, is that while she has Drive Gauge, she takes no chip damage, and reduced blockstun. She starts with the ability to spend two bars of Drive Gauge to use a powerful Overdrive Art. Overdrive Arts are powerful versions of her special moves, made even more effective if combined with a Fuhajin.

Skills: (Passive abilities, outstanding ‘stats’, and talents/proficiencies)

• Taekwondo Ki User: - A martial artist of superhuman strength, speed, and skill. Able to easily overpower common force multipliers such as mundane swords, guns, explosives, etc. She can project her internal force and energy out from herself with dangerous close ranged ki projectiles.
• Speed - Juri is incredibly fast and agile, even by Street Fighter standards.
• Skill Name - Skill Description
• Skill Name - Skill Description

Weaknesses: (Practical limitations, detrimental ‘stats’, and deficiencies. Include three)

• Burnout State - Once out of Drive Gauge, she incurs many weaknesses. She takes increased chip damage and block stun, and loses access to all Drive related techniques, making her defense severely weaker and limiting her damage dealing. While in Burnout, a significantly hard impact will Stun her, leaving her helpless for several seconds. Even if she blocks an attack it is possible to Stun her should she hit the environment hard enough as a result.
  
  She loses Drive Gauge when she blocks, when she is hit with a punish counter, or when she is hit with an attack that costs the opponent some of their own resource. Super, mana, energy, focus, whatever it may be, if it is a limited power it will take away some of her Drive Gauge on hit depending on the damage and cost.
• Punish Counter - While Juri is able to capitalize off the mistakes of her enemies with her techniques, there is a tangible benefit from doing the same to her. Catching her in the recovery of performing an attack will sap some of her Drive Gauge and exacerbate the effects of the the attack. For example, an attack that might have normally just knocked her back a few steps may rattle her energy for her to collapse to her knees should it hit her after she missed an attack.
• Short Range - While she has numerous methods of closing the gap that might make her dangerous an opponent who relies on long range, she has no notable proficiency in anything like marksmanship. Her ki attacks are mostly just for controlling space just outside of the range of her hands and feet.

Appearance: Concept Art / Original.

Personality: Known to have a lively, easily excitable personality, the Ace Cadet is an enthusiastic man that seems to have a penchant for finding danger (or danger finding him). His lucks seems to swing wildly, but somehow he always makes it out in the end. Although he may look young, he has a great deal of experience over the average hunter - making him quite good at his job! In the field he displays keen insight and quick-witted practicality, in contrast to the more thrill seeking and goofball sides of him. He enjoys going out of his way for a rare material or impressing others with feats of hunting. In addition he enjoys reading and has a large appetite for learning (and in general), making him surprisingly knowledgeable at times.

Of course the Cadet wasn't always an ace hunter. He was and still is prone to getting carried away easily. As a novice, he'd made mistakes that put himself and others in grave danger, making him more conscientious. He hides past and present mistakes in his heart, using humor to cope and bitter experiences to motivate himself to continue to grow. Speaking of humor, his is one that expresses itself through puns. Many, many monster puns! As he's grown he's tried toning down the wordplay, but once encouraged it's hard to get him to stop. More generally, the Cadet is a friendly personality, and he isn't afraid to try something new.

*Due to spirit fusion, the host is more likely to call people in authority ‘boss’, is more outspoken about ‘justice’, and is more theatrical in a chuuni sort of way.

Abilities:

• Palico Rescue - When the Ace Cadet or a teammate nearby would faint (or otherwise be knocked out of the fight) the Palico Cart arrives to whisk them to safety! These felynes will bring their charge to the last known "checkpoint," usually a base camp, but are intelligent and can be instructed - though they won't do anything but ferry the injured. Has a hard limit of three rescues before the cats need to "rest," so to speak.
• Self-Replenishing Scoutflies - These insects are hung from a cage hung on the Cadet's person. There is no need to worry about keeping them stocked, a bunch of them are mysteriously always there. They can be used to locate or track people, monsters, items, etc. They normally glow green, but turn red when danger is near and in certain cases can also glow blue.
• Armor Skill Unlock - The latent power of the Ace Cadet's armor set has activated, opening new skills up to him whenever he wears it. Not only his own armor, but other pieces of armor he obtains gain appropriate "armor skills" when he dons them. The same skill can be stacked for increased effect.
• Crush Shot - Obtained as a boon from the goddess Aphrodite. Grants a "Cast" that lets loose a wide, short-range blast that inflicts that status Weak on enemies it hits (decreases damage they deal for a short time).
• Hunter Arts: Sword & Shield - Advanced techniques utilizing a sword and shield. These arts include: Sword Dance, slashing many times in a graceful, dance useful for dealing damage to hard body parts, as you may continue attacking even if a hit is repelled; Round Force, a wide spin attack that slashes in a circle all around, the strong core needed to perform it makes one invulnerable during execution, and the force itself can lift allies into the air; Shoryugeki, thrusting the shield into the air in an uppercut motion after landing a slice attack, the follow-up attack with the shield is strong enough to even stun monsters.
• Hunter Arts: Longsword - Advanced techniques utilizing a long sword. These arts include: Sakura Slash, an evasive slashing technique excellent at drawing blood; Critical Juncture, a parry developed in Yukumo that involves clearing the mind and unleashing a counter attack; and Devouring Demon, a temporary state of mind in which a hunter's attack power increases while their health drains - though health can be restored by successfully landing hits.
• Hunter Arts: Bow - Advanced techniques utilizing a bow. These arts include: Triple Volley, a powerful burst of three arrows fired at once; Haste Rain, a supporting technique that fires an arrow carrying a stimulant overhead, showering the area below with spores that temporarily raise allies' movement and charging speed; and Blade Wire, two arrows tied with razor wire that effectively create a flying blade when fired - it deals cutting damage and can entangle enemies.
• Hunting Style: Alchemy - A type of hunting that specializes in using "alchemy" to make new items that can be used to help them during a hunt - specifically through the use of an Alchemy Barrel. The barrel is a miraculous device that can not only grow and shrink, but combine different kinds of items to produce a separate desired item or effect by putting them in the barrel, activating and shaking it. The longer the activation time, the more options for creation, with the most complex creations taking the longest. In order of complexity the basic things that can be made with the Alchemy Barrel are: food, ammo, arrow coatings, earplugs, a sonic-bomb effect, an explosive fireball effect, and a healing effect that also cleanses status conditions.
• Jamaica's Ship-Shaped - Gives the host a set of rigging that extends from his fauld. This rigging has two arms, each with a pair of tiny cannon batteries and a curved red blade. As long as the rigging is equipped, the host can skate over the surface of water.

Skills:

• Strong Physique - The people that choose a life of hunting monsters are stronger than your average person, able to lift more weight and take more punishment than one might think possible. The Ace Cadet can easily heft great iron weapons larger than he is, is more resistant to mortal wounds, can fall from great heights with minimal damage, and has a speedier recovery rate than your typical human.
• Team Player - Ace Cadet is more than used to working in a team, and he won't argue when given directions by anyone, even someone lower ranking than himself. He uses his abilities to support, heal, and empower those fighting with him. Always willing to be part of combos with another person.
• Crafty - He is good with his hands, and can create or combine items quickly and easily, including those not of his world if he's been shown how to do it or it's intuitive enough. This includes being able to make things while in the field, provided he has the items to do so. Sometimes they may be made of strange ingredients, but they get the job done. Fish + berry = bullet, right?
• Adaptable - The Cadet is able to seamlessly switch weapons or fighting style depending on what the situation calls for. He is also ambidextrous. He is skillful at learning how to use any weapon or item in a short time and quick to adapt to changes or unexpected situations during battle which keeps him from panicking. Even weapons from other worlds are within his means to master.
• Feast - Gained after his experience on the Maw. Eating anything will restore health in addition to the food's actual effects. He also receives a fast-diminishing attack boost after eating.
• Taunt & Evade - Gained after his experience on the Maw. The Ace Cadet has gotten much better at drawing the attention of enemies, but also at avoiding their gaze as well. Put another way he is better at "managing aggro," able to prompt enemies to target him or shirk their attention temporarily depending on the situation.

Weaknesses:

• Collector - Back home gathering materials is the Ace Cadet's specialty, so he is wont to stop and pick up anything that seems even mildly useful. He also seems to keep a lot of equipment and items in general, whether it's gadgets, weaponry, or anything else. This can lead to over-encumbrance and slowing himself or the group down if not properly dealt with.
• Big Game Hunter - Because most of his technique and strategy revolve around fighting what he was trained for, i.e. large monsters, he is not as effective in battle against humans or humanoids. He can be overwhelmed by great numbers, a coordinated group of smaller enemies, or seasoned warriors.
• Overeager - Though he's tried to curb this habit, the Cadet will jump at the chance for adventure even before any strategy is set in stone, sometimes getting ahead of his allies or enacting a plan without any testing first. He likes to go after the biggest and most dangerous looking enemy in an encounter. He especially likes to show off if he thinks it can impress people he likes.
• Magic Aversion - Developed after his experience on the Maw. The Cadet has grown mistrustful of all magic. This includes beneficial spells from allies. When given the choice he will avoid helpful magic as well as magical enemies, and his performance against such opponents is diminished due to caution and suspicion.
• Jamaica's Burgeoning Justice - He is more likely to do silly, inopportune things like pose or rant about Justice or Evil as he gets more excited.

Spirits:

• Jamaica - Fusion
  
  [+]

  This spirit confers the ability "Ship-Shaped," as well as the weakness "Burgeoning Justice." It affects his personality by making him more chuuni, and and more likely to call those in authority 'boss.' Appearance wise it has made him shorter and slighter, with darker skin and darker red hair. His hair has also gotten longer and fluffier, reaching his shoulders, and has golden streaks at the front. It also adds a bright gold color to his eyes.

Rapport:

Currency: 1000 zenny.
Inventory:

Appearance: Original.

Personality: As a servant of the Goddess of Light, Lady Palutena, Pit is dedicated and righteous. He has unshakable faith in Palutena and in himself when he acts in her service. He may complain about the difficult assignments he's given, but he always gets the job done. He is confident and fearless most of the time, and takes his duties as Captain of the Royal Guard seriously. He has no tolerance for those doing evil, but to his friends and allies he is cheerful, talkative and playful - plus he's got a great sense of humor (or so he claims). He always stands up for what is right.

...that said, anyone who talks with Pit for an extended period of time will quickly learn that although he is a competent soldier and an experienced combatant, like his appearance suggests he has some childish qualities as well. He is stubborn, defensive, and more than a little naive. If one were to tell him the world gullible was written on the ceiling, he wouldn't hesitate to look. Plus, having relied on his Lady's guidance for so long, he can become nervous and self-conscious when he's on his own, though he's working to correct that. Sometimes he can get a little star-struck as well, but despite all these qualities he's still a model angel.

*Due to spirit fusion, Pit is now more laid back and considerate, while also being more clever and a better listener. However he is also more fierce, especially when it comes to protecting or avenging what he cares about.

Background:
In the Now:

Job: Angelic Soldier
Specialty: Assaults, raids, and ranged weaponry; capable of both rapid attacks as well as quick and/or powerful burst damage.
Level: 7
Experience: 181/70 ^[x]

Abilities:

• Sacred Bow & Arrow - Sacred Training Chamber experience used in conjunction with the Palutena Bow. The ability to use the light arrows manifests as two golden halos of light that encircle the archer's firing arm, letting them shoot unlimited arrows of energy. Though its standing shots are on the weaker side they can be charged for more power, and its dash shots are mighty. The arrows' path can be directed somewhat after being fired and gain speed over a distance - or they can be fired straight with a wider spinning fireball around each arrow.
• Guardian Orbitars - A pair of shield-shaped weapons that act as satellites, floating around Pit when active. They can block enemy attacks and can be deployed in two ways: Smash-style where they are appear as quick medium-sized shields that can stop an enemy's attack and reflect projectiles, or Uprising-style where they replace Pit's currently equipped weapon. When in Uprising-style, these Orbitars can fire weak shots or be used as weak melee weapons, but their real strength is in summoning a very large energy shield that can be projected out and damage opponents that touch it. The large shield only lasts for a couple of seconds, similar to the Smash-style shields.
• Uppderdash Arm - An Arm-type weapon that fits over the entire limb, used mainly for melee damage that can be deployed in two ways: Smash-style where it can be briefly summoned for a fast forward dash and uppercut that plows through attacks and projectiles to deal significant damage and heavy knockback, or Uprising-style where it replaces Pit's currently equipped weapon. When in Uprising-style it keeps it's forward dash attack and gains the ability to fire short-range discs and a back-dash charge shot that sends foes flying into the air, leaving them vulnerable to follow-up attacks. Both dash attacks have a short recovery period, instead leaving Pit vulnerable if he whiffs.
• Violet Breaking Palm - A divine weapon that initially appears as a whirling rainbow orb, the palm allows its user to harness their own life energy in the palm of their hand and conjuring projectiles with the best homing and rapid fire capabilities of any of Pit's arsenal. When summoned it replaces Pit's currently equipped weapon and the orb is absorbed into his skin, appearing as a colorful glowing tattoo on his right arm and hand. It has the ability to fire near constant barrages of homing shots like arcs of light, limited only by Pit's stamina as it draws on his vitality to do so. The shots don't do much damage individually, relying on quantity of hits, but they do more damage the closer they are to the target and the energy can be combined into one much larger, stronger shot by charging or dashing. It also boosts the power of Pit's melee attacks, particularly palm strikes.
• Lolo's Wild Shot - A special flip shot that magically triples the host's current arrows but forces him to target a random opponent if there is more than one.
• Lolo's Lightstrike - Allows Pit to imbue his weapons and arrows with elemental light, turning them yellow and dealing light-aspect damage in addition to their regular damage. The elemental damage increases in proportion to how ranged shots are fired; stronger charge or dash shots also deal increased light damage.
• Sethos' Shadow-piercing Shot - Pit's arrows are empowered the longer the bowstring is pulled taut. Once fully charged, the arrows can pierce through enemies, dealing Electro damage and applying on-hit effects to all those struck (and they don't suffer arrow drop, instead behaving like beams).
• Sethos' Thundering Sands - An evasive technique that gathers the might of thunder at Pit's feet, dealing a burst of Electro damage in an area around him as he quickly skates backward. If this ability triggers an elemental reaction, Pit recovers a little energy.

Skills:

• Plucky - Pit is brave and determined, whether in the face of danger or outside of it. Maybe it's because of the perils he regularly faces, but it's very hard to break his spirit. He usually bounces back quickly no matter the circumstance.
• Winged - Despite not being able to actually fly, having a pair of wings comes with advantages. He can flap them to 'jump' higher a couple times in a row, use them to slow his falls, and if the wind is good he can glide down from places.
• Hardy - Pit doesn't tire easily, and he's tough even for an angel. He's spent many missions getting shot at, pummeled, and plummeting from incredible heights only to get up and walk it off after impact. Plus he can eat dubious foods from the ground with no ill effects, so maybe he has an iron stomach too.
• Angel Sense - An innate ability that lets Pit weakly sense irregularities. For example he can tell if someone or something is divine in nature (or the opposite), and if a person possesses abilities like PSI or magic. Unless the aura is particularly strong, Pit has to be close enough to sense it. The sense is not strong enough to tell the location of said someone or something if they are hidden, and doesn't help if someone is actively suppressing their nature.
• Adnachiel's Bright - This skill not only makes Pit literate, but also a good student when it comes to learning and becoming proficient at new things.

Weaknesses:

• Lightweight - In a trade off for being a bit quicker, being light means the Pit takes more damage when he is hit by particularly strong attacks and gets knocked back much farther as well. He's easy to send flying, and doesn't have much pushing power.
• The Wing Issue - Pit cannot actually fly on his own. His wings are healthy, but his feathers lack the inherent magic that angels of his world have that allows them to fly. Even so, his wings are still vital to his health. If they are destroyed, he's likely to die.
• Illiterate - He straight up can't read. Maybe he's been too busy with his angelic duties to learn. (Nullified due to Spirit Fusion)
• Lolo's Cold Inclined - Pit is now more susceptible to (and uncomfortable when) overheating.
• Sethos' Four Stars - Due to the fusion, Pit is less desirable and impressive.
• Adnachiel's Lawbound - If Pit uses his divine bow to shed the blood of an individual bound by the Law of the Sankta, he will become 'fallen', all but destroying his halo and wings while causing demonic physical traits to manifest and all divine weapons to reject him.

• Eaton - Striker
  
  [+]

  A formidable golem with a Light affinity and defense specialty. Eaton can perform slow but heavy punches, slams, and bashes on a 15s cooldown, which deal heavy blunt-force light-aspected damage if they connect. He can also use a knee strike (30s cooldown) that will provoke the typical enemy, turning its attention toward Eaten for 10 seconds (Eaton will not time out until the provoke expires). Once every five minutes, he can also use I'm Tough to dispel all debuffs on his host, then provide a damage-soaking barrier and debuff immunity for 20 seconds. Eaten has a special passive that reduces damage taken by the host by 30% while he is in use.
• Lolo - Fusion
  
  [+]

  This spirit confers the ability "Wild Shot", as well as the weakness "Cold Inclined." It affects his personality by making him care a little more about the natural world, and more fierce - especially in regards to protecting and avenging what he cares for. Appearance changes include blonde sections of his hair, his fringe getting longer, and sections of his outfit becoming fur.
• Sethos - Fusion
  
  [+]

  This spirit confers the ability "Shadow-piercing Shot", as well as the Weakness "Four Stars." It affects his personality by making him more laid back and a better listener.

• Adnachiel - Inheritance
  
  [+]

  This spirit confers the Skill "Bright", as well as the Weakness "Lawbound." It affects his personality by making him more clever and considerate.

Personality: Primrose is a mature young woman, with a strong sense of justice and even stronger desire for vengeance. After enduring hardship after hardship during her teenage years while searching for her father's murderers, Primrose has gained an inner strength and powerful resolve to see things through to the end. However, theses trials have also given her a tough outer shell. Although her acting ability is top notch and she can easily play the part of a cheerful girl, most people that have met Primrose in passing know that she is mistrusting and distant. She is cunning and aloof; a woman of few words unless she needs something from someone - and even then, she lets her body do the talking.

Despite first impressions, part of that happy girl growing up in Noblecourt still remains. At heart Primrose is an extrovert, and when some lucky people worm their way into a friendship with her they'll be able to see through the walls she's put up around herself. If given the opportunity to relax, Primrose will open up and even get a little playful. Kind words from Primrose are reserved only for those closest to her. Though even the most beautiful of roses has it's thorns, and even the greatest of friends have a hard time prying any personal information out of Primrose... and none would be able to dissuade her from her quest for revenge.

*Due to spirit fusion, Primrose is more intimidating, deadly, and vain; but also more personable and observant. She retains her sense of justice and is no less thoughtful and kind.

Background:
In the Now:

Job: Dark Dancer
Specialty: Uses magic both offensively and to raise the stats of her allies, and her allure to charm people into doing what she wants.
Level: 11
Experience: 162/110 ^[x]

Abilities:

• Art of Dance - Primrose's main ability as a Dancer. The rhythmic swaying of her body can grant buffs to the states of allies or herself, such as their attack, magic power, speed, and defense.
• Dark Magic - Her innate magical talent. Primrose can cast wide range waves of dark-element magic to damage multiple enemies at once with her Night Ode spell, or concentrate her magic into the more powerful single target spell Moonlight Waltz.
• Battle Point Boost - During battle, Primrose accumulates Battle Points (BP) up to a maximum of 5. BP can be expended to strengthen or "boost" her abilities: either to deal more damage, attack more times in a row, or use more powerful versions of her skills depending on the amount of BP expended (up to a max of 3 in one "boost").
• Sealticge's Seduction - A particularly enticing display. When used on herself or a single ally, active skills used by them that usually target one foe or ally will affect all foes or allies instead. This can apply to damage spells, debuffs, buffs, or healing. It does not apply to talents, passive skills or items.
• The Show Must Go On - Dancer support skills in the form of Second Wind, giving her passive mana/SP regeneration over time, and Encore, once per battle, upon being incapacitated, recover with 25% of maximum HP.
• Vengeful Spirit - A gift from the Snail Shaman, a spell that conjures a spirit that will fly forward and burn foes in its path. It passes through invulnerable parts of an enemy, such as a shield or shell, but will not damage a fully protected enemy.
• Zoey's Pyromancy Flame - A Faith based magic that allows the host to bring forth a portion of primordial flame in the palm of her hand that can be used as a casting catalysts for pyromancies, although the flame by itself is too weak to do anything but provide a little heat and cannot spread.
• Rosaria's Ravaging Confession - An attack that allows the user to teleport behind a nearby opponent in order to deliver an energy-generating double slash in her element.
• Rosaria's Rites of Termination - First Primrose swings her weapon to slash surrounding opponents; then she summons a large elemental construct in the shape of a lance that strikes toward the ground. Both actions deal elemental damage in an area. While active, the lance is embedded at it's impact point and releases waves of energy that deal elemental damage to surrounding opponents.
• Cleobulus' Luna Λ - Grants her access to potent Dark Magic. The moonlight that she can cast in outward blasts or explosive, tracking moons is not that strong, but it completely ignores magic defense / resistance.

Skills:

• Bewitching Beauty - Primrose can usually get what she wants out of people by utilizing her charm, grace, and stunning good looks. This is commonly called "using your feminine wiles." With her "Allure" she can even get people to follow her and help in battle, though her beauty is less effective on the strong willed.
• Enduring Tenacity - She will stop at nothing to find the men who killed her father and avenge him. In order to reach that goal, Primrose has become an amazing actor, able to put on a front and endure any hardship until her revenge is complete.
• Strength in Numbers - Although she may not always show it, traveling in a group and making bonds gives Primrose more strength and confidence than she ever had while she was fighting her battles alone. She'll go the extra mile while in a group, and she more easily picks up the strength of others.
• Dark Magic Mastery - The power and potency of Primrose's innate dark elemental spells has increased. She also has gained access to the spells Dirge of Dusk (deals dark element damage to a foe up to 3 times and lowers their resistance to dark element) and Spell Song (deals dark element damage to all foes in a wide area and lowers their physical and magical defenses).
• Primrose's Rondo of Dawn - The dancer's battle sense has been honed. Once per battle, Primrose will gain one extra Battle Point (BP) when she hits an enemy with a dark element spell.
• Rosaria's Shadow Samaritan - Primrose has gained the knowledge of how to properly master a spear. She is now an adept wielder of polearm type weaponry. When using a polearm her critical hit rate is increased after using Ravaging Confession, and nearby party members' critical hit rate is increased after using Rites of Termination.
• Amazon's Berserker - When attacking with a physical weapon, there is a chance for Primrose's strength and speed to temporarily increase with every hit landed. These increases are stackable so long as she keeps landing hits.
• Cleobulus' Unsealable Magic - Primrose's magic power has grown to further heights. She is protected from being magically silenced or having her magic otherwise sealed, allowing her to cast magic at any time so long as she has the mana/SP to do so.
• Tethys's Memorize - Allows Primrose to memorize small details, as well as movements and patterns with very little exposure or repetition.
• Tethys's Beloved Dance - Empowers Primrose's dancing and allows her to reinvigorate allies whom she dances for. Allies she performs for are granted another chance at action, restoring part of their stamina in addition to the regular effects her dancing bestows.
• Therion's Fleetfoot - Due to their bond's Skill Share, Primrose's base speed has increased, letting her take the initiative in battle and more easily evade attacks.
• Nadia's Tag Team - Due to their bond's Skill Share, Primrose is able to work much more effectively as part of a group. She can better help her friends out and follow up their attacks, potentially even continuing their combos.
• Sectonia's Powerful Mage - Due to their bond's Skill Share, Primrose can detect and identify magic in use, discerning its effects. She also exhibits a great deal of control over her own mastered spells, including potency, direction, and precision.

Weaknesses:

• Single-Minded - Primrose is so focused on her vengeance that it can sometimes blind her. She is prone to falling for traps or missing critical information when she's chasing down the object of her loathing. The sight of a crow tattoo will make her drop everything else in pursuit.
• Suited for Support - Although she is more than capable of wielding a dagger with deadly skill, Primrose is ill-suited to fighting on the front line. Her frame is thin but curvy for the most alluring dances, and her physical strength is lacking. (Nullified due to Spirit Fusion)
• Zoey's Bane - Primrose takes more damage from fire and physical thrusting/piercing attacks.
• Rosaria's Without Devotion - A non-believer. Primrose's effective Faith had decreased, weakening her Faith-based abilities.
• Amazon's All-Out Offense - Primrose has gained an aversion to 'passive' and 'cowardly' gear and tactics, like shields, armor, poisons, consumables, and keep-away.
• Cleobulus' Tomebreaker - When doing battle against fist fighters or similar, Primrose's evasion is weakened, effectively raising the accuracy and evasion of those foes against her dramatically.
• Tethys's Weapon Trilemma: Sword - Decreases Primrose's accuracy against (and increases the damage taken from) enemies wielding pole arms; including spears, lances, halberds, javelins, scythes, and so forth by 15%.

Spirits:

• Hippowdon - Striker (Dugout)
  
  [+]

  The Heavyweight Pokemon, ground-type. Its ability, Sand Stream, spins up a sandstorm whenever it's summoned that lasts a while. The sand buffets anyone without an earth or earth-adjacent affinity, dealing slight but continuous damage. Its slow but has high defense for a Striker, making it difficult to interrupt. Its moves are Yawn, Dig, Crunch, and Earthquake.
• Makami - Striker
  
  [+]

  A divine wolf god in Japanese folklore, also written as "Oguchi-no-Magami." It is often drawn on prayer boards to prevent fires and thefts, but it is also feared as a human-eater. Has a particular set of skills.
• Animus of Will - Striker (Dugout)
  
  [+]

  A thorned plant monster with a shape that roughly mimicks a human's and a short cooldown. When summoned, she will always attack three times, either with advancing stabs, sweeping slashes, or root lashes. This quirk allows her to lock individual opponents down either in hitstun or blockstun, allowing the summoner to apply pressure or continue a combo, but it also means she's open to counterattack for longer, especially if she misses.
• Noble Succubus Bianca - Striker
  
  [+]

  A refined blademaster with a 30s cooldown who wields a huge two-handed thrusting sword to deal precise but heavy damage. Her moves include a strong delayed impaling thrust, rapid stabs, a parry that can deflect a physical attack, or a sword wave that inflicts ice damage. She also has a special passive: if she's struck she immediately disappears, but boosts her host's attack by 30% for 3 seconds while simultaneously nerfing her attacker's attack by 30%.
• Desert Pyromancer Zoey - Fusion
  
  [+]

  This spirit confers the ability "Pyromancy Flame," as well as the weakness "Zoey's Bane." It did not affect her personality. This spirit toned Primrose's abdominal muscles a little more, and made her skin a little paler. Outfit changes have been discarded.
  Pyromancies Learned:

  • Fire Orb: The signature flame-manipulating spell common to pyromancers. Hurls a giant fire orb. The blazing fire orb explodes on impact, dealing fire damage to the surrounding area.

• Rosaria - Fusion
  
  [+]

  This spirit confers the abilities "Ravaging Confession" and "Rites of Termination," the skill "Shadow Samaritan," as well as the weakness "Without Devotion." It affects her personality by making her more intimidating and deadly. This spirit made Primrose's skin even paler and gave her hair a dark wine red tint. Besides the metal hairband and talon rings, outfit changes have been discarded.

Appearance: Original.

Personality: Therion is cynical. During the time spent with his seven fellow travelers (who he has to remind himself have long since become friends) he has worked through most of his deeper trust issues, but the fact remains that for most of his life he's seen humanity's underbelly, so it stood to reason that you can't take someone at face value, especially someone you've just met. It's one of the reasons he prefers working on his own. Or... was one of them anyway. He still says he works better solo when actually on a heist. He is a thief, one of the best, and his confidence is due to his sheer skill at his occupation. Sure, the few times he's gotten caught were pretty devastating, but he was still a pro among pros. He exercises his skill liberally, and has certain rituals he follows to ensure success rather than actually plan things out in advance.

His personality can be abrasive, his confidence coming off as arrogance especially when mixed with his dry sense of humor. He is sarcastic and rough around the edges, with a sharp eye and sharper tongue. He isn't friendly in the slightest, though despite his harsh past he still holds a sense of camaraderie with those he travels with. He shows he cares in his own way, not directly but with subtle gestures or weak jokes. He holds a sense of pride that prevents him from admitting things easily, and he tends to deflect rather than let his true feelings be known. Unless those feelings are negative, in which case he won't have a problem saying it aloud. That said, being a thief and not a warrior, Therion would much rather avoid trouble than make a fuss.

*Due to spirit fusion, in terms of personality, he's gotten friendlier and cheekier. He is also more straightforward, as well as more caring and noble - though he is more merciless especially against undead. His dislike of heights, mountains, and cliffs has also lessened.

Background:
In the Now:

Job: Liberated Thief
Specialty: He excels at speed, stealth, and sleight of hand. In combat, his specialty is evasion and debuffing.
Level: 10
Experience: 81/100 ^[x]

Abilities:

• Thieves' Specialty - The ability to debuff opponents. In this case, the skills Shackle Foe to lower an enemy's physical attack strength, and Armor Corrosive to lower physical defense. Perhaps most importantly, Therion can steal from enemies mid-battle.
• Battle Point Boost - During battle, Therion accumulates Battle Points (BP) up to a maximum of 5. BP can be expended to strengthen or "boost" his abilities: either to deal more damage, attack more times in a row, or use more powerful versions of his skills depending on the amount of BP expended (up to a max of 3 in one "boost").
• Energy Thief - A vampiric-like melee attack that enables Therion to steal HP or SP/mana from his target and transfer it to himself. Can steal up to 50% of damage dealt in HP, or up to 5% of damage dealt in SP/mana.
• Share Energy - A power that enables Therion to bestow up to 50% of his own SP/mana to an ally by touch.
• Wildfire - Therion's only natural magic. A flame spell that deals heavy fire damage to a single for when used as an attack.
• Aeber's Reckoning - A divine skill of the Thief class that conjures an assault of daggers. A very quick, very powerful attack that hits all foes in a large area, dealing bonus damage based on the user's speed. Costs three BP to use.
• Ranulf's Laguz Shapeshift - With conscious thought, Therion is able to temporarily assume a strong, agile beast form.
• Ranulf's Roar - The class skill of Beast Laguz. Usable only in beast form and once per battle, when Roar is used the enemy will be inflicted with paralysis for 6-10 seconds.
• Raziel's Wraith Blade - Allows the summoning of a spectral sword. It can be used to fire bolts of spectral energy, and if it's used to destroy a spirit the wielder will be healed and empowered. If exposed to pure sources of elemental energy, the Wraith Blade can be empowered with them.
• Sogetsu's Fugetsu - He can create an orb of water that acts as a projectile. It quickly slows down as it gets farther from its origin point, but by focusing he can control its movement from afar. On hit it bursts to deal concussive water damage. It lasts for just two seconds, and if he's hit while the orb is out, it dissipates immediately.
• Sogetsu's Tsukigakure - A form of ninjutsu, it allows Therion to effectively teleport using water as a medium. He can seemingly disappear into a surface of water as small as a puddle and reappear on a nearby spot of water within range. The range is no more than a few dozen feet. Also much less effective if he is already submerged.
• Cliffheart's Chain Hook - Grants access to an empowered grapple that deals damage and ignores enemy size/weight to drag the target toward the user, as if the target were on ice. This can be used every six seconds, but only when an applicable grappling hook is equipped.
• Fawkes' Silver Bolt - Allows Therion to empower a projectile in order to increase its damage by 20%, as well as a further 40% if the target it hits is debuffed.
• Fawkes' Abate - Another addition to Therion's de-buffing repertoire. With Abate he can reduce an enemy's speed and energy generation (such as resources needed to use super moves, etc).
• Fawkes' Purification - A wide range wave that radiates out from Therion, dealing damage to enemies it washes over and eliminating a majority of buffs they may have in proportion to how many enemies the wave hits. The more enemies within the wave, the less buffs are cleared from each one, down to a minimum of one per target. This ability has a long cooldown and can't be used in quick succession.

Skills:

• Master Thief - He can slip in and out of a place without being noticed, pick all but the most complex of locks, lift items directly from people who remain unaware until hours later, and has enough of a discerning eye to tell when something is valuable.
• Fleetfoot - Therion is very speedy, letting him take the initiative in battle and more easily evade attacks. Of course it also helps him outrun trouble in the first place.
• Precision - Or in plainer terms, Therion has high accuracy and is able to land critical hits more easily. It also help when throwing, catching, or really doing any kind of intricate, dexterous work. He is also ambidextrous.
• Stem Cells - Upon contact they provided a big chunk of increased max health, as well as a small increase to the speed of all Therion's projectiles. The benefit remains even after the growth was excised.
• Metro Cat Senses - Therion now has feline senses, including heightened senses of hearing and smell.
• Primrose's Enduring Tenacity - Due to their bond's Skill Share, Therion is now better able to fool people by acting or putting on a front, and better endures hardships.
• Nadia's Tag Team - Due to their bond's Skill Share, Therion is able to work much more effectively as part of a group. He can better help his friends out and follow up their attacks, potentially even continuing their combos.

Weaknesses:

• Short-Sighted - He doesn't think that far into the future. He has a tendency to go in to situations with no back up plan, with only the devil's luck to carry him through. If things don't work out he shifts into winging it. Naturally this can lead to some sticky situations.
• Prideful - The ego that kept Therion literally shackled with the message "caught red-handed." Therion's stubbornness means he relies on no one but himself, and he'll carry on with disadvantages just to prove a point.
• Poor Magic Control - Therion's low mana/SP pool coupled with his lack of proper training means that his control over magic is sorely lacking. That's not to say he has no talent as a caster, but the only spell he really knows is called Wildfire for a reason. His spells have a tendency to spread wider or flare up stronger than intended.
• Ranulf's Beast Bane - He takes double damage from all weapons and abilities that are effective against "beasts."
• Metro Cat's Water Aversion - He simply dislikes getting wet.
• Raziel's Hydrothemia - Therion is hurt by sufficient quantities of water. Water-based attacks will do extra damage, and immersion in water will burn him like an acid.
• Sogetsu's Taint of Suija - He now gets an ego spike when he's at a significant advantage or his opponent messes up, making him more likely to waste time boasting or belittling his opposition.
• Cliffheart's Exposed Hunter - Decreases his attack and defense by 12% when an assailant targeting him is in close proximity.
• Fawkes' Auto Battler - He is more likely to zone out and fight without thinking in battles that don't interest him.

Smelter Passives:

Spirits:

• Junicorn - Striker
  
  [+]

  An enigmatic monstrosity housed within armor. Though its arms and legs seem like a man's, slick with blood, one must doubt if the creature inside was ever human to begin with. It's highly durable and can tank a good impact, as well as just throw (or pull its limbs in and roll) itself to deliver blunt force, but its trump card is the lance on its head. It can be fired like a bolt from a ballista, only to be swiftly regrown. Its short-to-medium cooldown means that its simple strengths can be leveraged with convenient frequency.
• Nayan - Striker
  
  [+]

  A small, slow, and strong striker with a variable cooldown and a support focus. She has three moves, the first of which is a simple slow hammer swing that inflicts a lot of poise damage, liable to knock back or knock down struck targets. The second is Rolling with Spirits, a jump followed by hammer flurry that restores the host a little HP with every landed blow. The third (and ultimate) is Calling Spirits, which creates a spirit water well with a 30 foot radius that continuously slows enemies and heals allies in range, turning the tide for her team. These three moves have a 10s, 45s, and 90s cooldown respectively.
• Ranulf - Fusion
  
  [+]

  This spirit confers the abilities "Laguz Shapeshift" and "Roar," as well as the weakness "Beast Bane." It affects his personality by making him friendlier and cheekier.

• Metro Cat - Fading Fusion
  
  [+]

  This spirit confers the skill "Cat Sense," as well as the weakness "Water Aversion." It doesn't affect his personality. Appearance wise it made him shorter and added black to his hair and fur.
• Raziel - Fusion
  
  [+]

  This spirit confers the ability "Wraith Blade," as well as the weakness "Hydrothemia." It affects his personality by making him more noble and moral.

• Sogetsu - Fusion
  
  [+]

  This spirit confers the ability "Fugetsu," as well as the weakness "Taint of Suija." It affects his personality by making him more caring but also more reserved.

• Cliffheart - Fusion
  
  [+]

  This spirit confers the ability "Chain Hook," as well as the weakness "Exposed Hunter." It affects his personality by making him more energetic and friendly, while his dislike for cliffs and mountains has lessened thanks to Cliffheart's love of climbing them. Appearance wise it has made his hair and fur fluffier, given him a hair bead, darkened his eye color and made his skin lighter. Outfit changes discarded, except for his scarf which is now black and purple checkered.
• Fawkes - Fusion
  
  [+]

  This spirit confers the ability "Silver Bolt," as well as the weakness "Auto Battler." It affects his personality by making him more straightforward, and he is more merciless especially against undead.

Name: Geralt of Rivia, Gwynbleidd, “White Wolf”

Game Origin: The Witcher

Appearance: Geralt

The host is slightly taller than normal, thought not by much. His hair is a pale strawberry blond, and his armor is now a suit of half-plate, with his legs and arms covered by leather underneath the plates on his thighs and forearms. He looks a bit more youthful, though a tinge of madness still peaks through his bright, blue eyes. From the shoulders of his gear extend two half-capes of a slightly translucent white material that is mistakable for silk when dry. Personality-wise, Geralt is a bit conflicted. He seeks to do what is right, and while he does not agonize over following orders, he has a bit of a rebellious streak in him, and revels in a challenge.

As LCCB Assistant Manager, the host is adorned in riot gear, wielding a riot shield and a pistol. His orange-white hair is voluminous, flowing down to his hips.

As Ardor Blossom, the host has gained a noticeable amount of size, his skin has darkened and become hardened and scaly. His armor has transformed into a heavy tan jacket with a black undershirt, and he wears orange pants beneath it. His eyes are a bright orange, while his hair has become a darker orange. In this form, Geralt has rudimentary draconic wings that can be used to lengthen his jumps and buffet enemies with wind, but not fly. He has grown large horns on either side of his head, and his hands end in vicious claws. His demeanor is more dour and quicker to anger in this form.

Personality: Geralt is, for all intents and purposes, a mercenary, and thus he often comes across as aloof or uncaring. However, Geralt is a strong believer in equality among sentient creatures, as well as justice. He often betrays his contractors if he discovers that the monster he has been hired to slay is not a threat, or circumvents the details of his contracts to meet a non-violent resolution if one is possible. He is well-known throughout Skellige, the Northern Realms and the Nilfgaardian Empire as a fierce and loyal friend, willing to traverse through veritable nightmares for those he holds dearest. The Orphan of Kos left a deep wellspring of rage within Geralt, leaving him prone to bouts of rage. His personality is more calm and in control, much less inclined to fly off the handle into a rage with the fusion with Ishmael, but also more critical of allies. He seeks to do what is right, and while he does not agonize over following orders, he has a bit of a rebellious streak in him, and revels in a challenge.

Background: Born to a sorceress and a warrior, Geralt was brought to “Witcher School” as a young boy. After surviving the Witchers’ rite of passage, the Trial of the Grasses, Geralt voluntarily underwent a series of experimental mutations which killed all other subjects. He managed to survive these experiments, however, and became a Witcher unlike any other.

Geralt has fought all manner of creatures, from wyverns to kings to trolls and vampires. He was killed once, only to reappear years later with no recollection of his past, though he likely won’t be able to recreate this feat without a powerful sorceress at his side. Speaking of powerful sorceresses, Geralt has romanced two: Triss Merigold and Yennefer of Vengerberg. His fate was once sealed to Yennefer’s by a Djinn, but the two recently severed their magical bond and affirmed their love to be unbroken by the loss of that magical tether. His daughter figure, Cirilla, looks up to Yennefer as a mother, as well.

Job: Witcher

Specialty: Monster Slayer

Level: 14

Experience: 18/140

Abilities:

• Quen Sign (Witcher) - produces two types of shields capable of absorbing and dispersing large amounts of kinetic energy before explosively shattering, sending foes reeling. The first is passive and offers lesser protection, while the second requires an active concentration and is capable of weathering greater stress. Starter Power.
• Igni Sign (Witcher) - launches a burst of extremely hot flames, capable of bubbling flesh on contact, heating metal red-hot, and igniting flammable gasses in the air. It is a versatile Sign, capable of being used at varying levels of power. It can be used for mundane tasks such as lighting campfires, as well as in combat to damage enemy armor or light them aflame. If Geralt focuses his concentration, he can spout a continuous stream of fire to focus the damage on a specific area or target. Level up Power.
• Yrden Sign (Witcher) - places a magical trap with one of two configurations.
  The Area Trap slows enemies that enter a circle with a radius of approximately one and a half meters. Additionally, any spectral enemies within the trap are forced into a more corporeal form, increasing their vulnerability to damage from physical sources (such as bombs and silver swords). Lasts for twenty seconds.
  The Glyph of Warding places a Visible Glyph on the ground which actively attacks hostile creatures and can destroy airborne projectiles within a ten-yard radius. However, the glyph can only attack approximately three times per second, and its attacks are not particularly powerful. Lasts for fifteen seconds. Level up Power.
• Axii Sign (Witcher) - A simple, yet quite unbreakable but effective sign, Axii assails the foes mind and bends them to the user's will. In combat, the sign serves one of two purposes: stunning an opponent, or, when focused on more actively, controlling an opponent in combat. Stunning an enemy is as simple as making the sign, and the attack will overwhelm the enemy's mind and leave them too disoriented to coordinate themselves for a period of about seven seconds.
  
  Overriding an enemy's mind and controlling them is a much more difficult task. Typically impossible on more mentally resilient enemies (usually boss or mini-boss level), Axii nonetheless can wreak havoc on a group of foes if they're not expecting to have to fight one of their own. It also serves a second purpose of taking the heat off Geralt if he's surrounded. Oddly enough, many enemies seem to be even deadlier when being puppeted by the sign. Whether the effect of a removal of some inhibition, or even breaking the biological inhibitors that adrenaline deactivates (in humans, at least) is unknown. It's simply...known, that enemies controlled by Axii are deadlier than they would otherwise be.
  
  Outside of combat, Axii must be maintained much more actively to produce anything more than a simple command. However, Geralt can use the sign to give complex orders to an individual. Of course, if others see him doing this to their friend, it tends to go over poorly. A few peasants may have lost their teeth or their lives trying to fight Geralt when he foolishly used this sign with others witness to what he was doing. Others...wisely ran in the opposite direction. Level up power.
• Aard Sign (Witcher) - Force incarnated, Aard produces a roughly cone-shaped blast of concentrated telekinetic energy, capable of forcing even hearty wyverns to stumble. It's also been known to knock barriers aside, blow open locked doors (Or sometimes knock them right off the hinges!), and knock grown men clean off their feet.
  
  Creatively applied, Aard can also produce a smaller and somewhat less powerful circular blast of force around Geralt, typically only strong enough to force men to stumble or risk losing their footing, rather than knocking them down outright. Level up Power.
• Second Life (Witcher) - When Vitality reaches 0, you become temporarily invulnerable and regenerate 100% Vitality. The effect can only be triggered once every 180s. Level up Power.
• Eldritch Lightning (Orphaned God) - Allows the host to call forth waves of electricity with a scream. From the Orphan of Kos Spirit.
• Hateful Flesh (Orphaned God) - Allows to pull the Orphan’s cleaver from within himself at a moderate health cost. The heaviest of his three weapons, it possesses an edge of siderate, a mineral said to have fallen from the great beyond, and rather than men or monsters, it deals extra damage to eldritch and spectral enemies. The host can pull clumps of extremely volatile tissue from the cleaver, which can then be used as contact explosives. From the Orphan of Kos Spirit.
• Identity (LCCB Sinner) - allows the host to switch out his current set of weaponry, equipment, and proficiencies to a different loadout, with additional identities available via level investment. Spirits applied to an identity will only affect that identity. This comes with the identity LCCB Assistant Manager, which comes with a set of riot armor that resists blunt and explosive damage, a tall ballistic shield, a pistol that shoots tremor-inducing Quake Rounds, and associated skills.
  
  Identities:
  
  LCCB Assistant Manager - comes with a set of riot armor that resists blunt and explosive damage, a tall ballistic shield, a pistol that shoots tremor-inducing Quake Rounds, and associated skills.
  
  Ardor Blossom Star - An E.G.O. Identity. Replaces all equipment with and orange coat, orange-and-black-striped short dress, black leggings, and boots alongside flaming moth wings, granting the ability to lob explosive fireballs at enemies. The fireballs can cause Burn, and if he puts more power into them, he can launch more fireballs albeit with a random spread. If she strikes an enemy she burned, it will cause an explosion of three more explosive fireballs that fly in random directions.
• Ardor Blossom Identity Ability - Ground Shaker (Dark Dragon) - A powerful stomp that unleashes a wave of heavy dark explosions forward, although it must by charged by dealing damage. From Barbatos's Spirit.
• Ardor Blossom Identity Ability - Shuriken Shower (Ninja Dragon) - Summons a rain of 14 shadow-infused ninja stars in an area, though this must be charged by dealing damage. The 14th star deals 58% more damage, and this ability also energizes the host and nearby allies, decreasing stamina usage and boosting stamina regen. From Shinobi's Spirit
• Brain Eater (Psi General) - Allows Geralt to permanently copy psychic abilities via aggressive grappling of other psychics' heads. Only psychic abilities can be taken for his own. From Karen Travers Spirit
• Foul Legacy: Raging Tide (Fatui Harbinger) - Allows the host to enter a melee stance endowed with weapons of pure Hydro energy. This allows him to execute quick attacks with dual blades, or stronger attacks with a joined twinblade. All attacks in this stance apply the Wet status, and critical hits apply Riptide, which deal additional Hydro attacks when triggered. From Tartaglia's Spirit
• Demon Fang (Paladin) - Sends a cutting shockwave along the ground to deal unaspected slash damage. From Flynn Scifo's Spirit.
• Basic Spells (Paladin) - Grants two basic spells, First Aid and Luminant Scythe. Each spell requires two seconds of uninterrupted channeling to cast, and require about as much stamina as casting a Sign. First Aid heals an ally for 25% of their maximum HP, while Luminant Scythe summons two angled rings of light to surround an enemy, along with four orbs of light which all crash into an enemy, dealing medium holy-aspected damage.
• Advanced Artes (Paladin) - Grants two more advanced abilities, Guardian Field and Holy Lance. Each ability costs roughly the stamina required to cast two Signs in short order, slightly exhausting Geralt after use and requiring a period of roughly fifteen seconds before he uses any costly abilities again, otherwise he risks severe physical exhaustion and an even longer period before he can use abilities. Guardian Field creates a ten-foot diameter field of blue light around Geralt, which damages enemies and heals himself and all allies within for 10% of their maximum HP over a period of three seconds. Holy Lance requires five seconds of uninterrupted channel time, after which it summons six lances of holy light, five around the target and one above. The five lances rapidly crash into the target in succession, each stunlocking the target in place for about half a second, and the final lance strikes into the target with tremendous force, knocking them up and back.

Skills:

• Extreme Poison/Disease Resistance (Witcher) - Geralt is immune to all but the absolutely deadliest poisons, which allows him to utilize the Witchers’ deadly concoctions as medicine, where they would normally destroy a normal human’s body in minutes. Starter Strength.
• Superior Regeneration (Witcher) - While not enough to regenerate lost limbs, Geralt possesses regenerative abilities far beyond that of any human being. He can survive wounds that would be fatal to regular humans because he can simply heal them quickly enough to not die from them, and other, non-lethal wounds disappear significantly more quickly than they would for anybody without an absurdly powerful healing factor. Starter Strength.
• Encyclopedic Knowledge (Witcher) - Geralt’s mind is a trove of knowledge, owing to his advanced age, wealth of experience, and quick wit. He houses a nearly encyclopedic knowledge of the various potions, bombs, and oils he can create. He can easily and readily identify the ingredients to these, though they are not always readily available, of course. Along with that knowledge, Geralt also knows the names, appearances, behavioral patterns, and weaknesses of every type of monster to roam the Continent, though this knowledge is of less use against creatures he hasn't researched or fought, including humans. He can, of course, use this knowledge to approximate what may work against any monsters he comes up against. This knowledge is also useful in performing autopsies, though Geralt lacks the proper tools to perform all but the most basic autopsies. This knowledge also pertains to investigating and breaking curses, though those are often unique cases based as much on knowledge of the creature as they are knowledge of the personal circumstance. Level up Strength.
• Witcher Physiology (Witcher) - Geralt's mutations as a Witcher grant him a number of attributes that make him stand out from ordinary humans. His strength, reflexes, durability, speed, and endurance are enhanced well beyond that of the average person's. He is strong enough to stand toe-to-toe with a troll, fast enough to race a wolf, agile enough to dodge an arrow, and sturdy enough to...stand toe-to-toe with a troll. His nose rivals that of a bloodhound, allowing him to track scents he can get a good read on. Overall, a Witcher stands beyond an ordinary human in ways few can match. Level up Strength.
• Protective Instincts (Witcher) - Geralt's time in the maw has reawakened the instincts that once drove him to wage a war to rescue his daughter. When an ally of Geralt's is in danger (by his perception, so just fighting a few weak enemies wouldn't suffice as a trigger) or has been previously harmed by an enemy, Geralt is strongly motivated to protect or avenge them. He becomes faster, stronger, and more resilient (mentally and physically) when he is fighting directly on the behalf of or for the safety of others. Maw Strength.
• Famine (Maw Reward Skill) While hungry, gain speed boost and stamina regain that ramp up the hungrier you are. Maw Strength.
• Mutation Resistance (Witcher) - Owing to Geralt's history of taking (alchemically sanitized) monster parts into himself for power prior to Galeem's combining of the worlds, he has now gained a sort of resistance to the negative effects of Spirit Fusion. When Fusing with a Spirit, Geralt reduces the effects of any weakness they may impose. Fears become general aversions, and damage vulnerabilities are reduced in severity, for example. Level up Strength.
• Unrelenting Stamina (Witcher) - Owing to his Mutations and training as a Witcher, Geralt's stamina regenerates at a markedly increased rate. Signs can be cast more often, and summons can be called upon more frequently without over-taxing Geralt. Level up Strength.
• A Call Beyond (Orphaned God) - The Orphan of Kos has given Geralt an affinity for and insight into nightmarish things beyond mortal ken. From the Orphan of Kos Spirit.
• Monstrous Physique (Orphaned God) - The inhuman strength of the Orphan of Kos has suffused into Geralt, improving his already-impressive physical strength to levels far beyond human. This also improves his physical durability, allowing him to withstand more punishment. Level Up Strength from having the Orphan of Kos Spirit.

Weaknesses: Despite his manifold abilities, Geralt is still human. His enhanced healing still takes time to work on grievous wounds unless he makes use of his limited Swallow potions, and he still requires the staples of life: food, water, sleep, and air. After a period of heavy damage and healing, he’ll need to eat quite a bit to recover that energy. His signs, while powerful, drain his fabled stamina heartily; it can take a few seconds for him to recover his energy and willpower before utilizing another, which can leave him vulnerable to a quick opponent. Geralt is also often treated as a subhuman by those who hold such views; his mutations and inhuman abilities, along with the reputation of Witchers as cold-blooded killers, often leaves Geralt on the outskirts of society.

Fear of Starvation - Geralt's experience with starvation on the Maw was harrowing to the Witcher. Despite his outward nonchalance, losing consciousness mid-fight due to not eating enough has left a growing seed of doubt in his mind. Geralt becomes constantly way about having enough to eat, to the point that lacking some kind of reserve of food will result in him growing irritable, and arguing for a course of action that is more likely to allow access to food, or an opportunity to rest.

Combined with the Famine strength, Geralt becomes more and more manic as his speed increases and his hunger grows.

Geralt's potions provide the bare minimum level of comfort, as they are more supplements for his abilities than actual food. In a pinch, he will use them to satiate his fear rather than for their stated purpose, though that will ultimately result in him feeling even worse for wasting after a short while if he's not able to reach some kind of food for relief. Maw Weakness.

Rager - It it easier for Geralt to give into anger when fighting (or in general) and suffer compromised decision-making with no increase to combat ability. From the Orphan of Kos Spirit. (Somewhat mitigated due to the fusion with Ishmael)

Fatal Slash - The host takes more damage from unmitigated slash-type attacks. From Ishmael's Spirit.

Brain Crush - Puts Geralt into a special staggered state if enough brain damage is dealt in quick succession. From Karen Travers' Spirit.

Self-imposed Self-improvement - Makes Geralt much more inclined to choose the weapon he's least proficient with when starting a fight. From Tartaglia's Spirit.

Disaster Chef - Automatically ruins any food he cooks, making it downright toxic to those without sufficient poison resistance. From Flynn Scifo's Spirit.

Ardor Blossom Identity Weakness - Shapeshift Limit - Puts a timer on how long the host can remain in his Ardor Blossom Identity before reverting to default, incurring a cooldown before the host can become Ardor Blossom again. While this timer normally lasts 30s, taking damage decreases it according to the damage taken. From Barbatos's Spirit.

Ardor Blossom Identity Weakness - Light Bane - Increases the damage taken from the light element by 25%. From Shinobi's Spirit.

Spirits:

• Striker- Fizz: A playful trickster striking with an assassin’s dexterity, arriving in a flash and gone just as quickly. His quick flurry of trident attacks can cause bleeding, and he can also pull off a corkscrew dash attack. Benched.
• Striker- Judicator: An abominable monstrosity, made all the more horrific for its undeniably human element. Although borne of the lowest depths imaginable, a cursed amalgam of sea creature and doomed mariner, it bears an undeniably connection to the cosmos–specifically the constellation Libra. It is slow and not that strong physically, although it takes up a lot of space, and can be called on reasonably often. Its scales, however, can induce stress in targets in a wide area,pelt them with spectral fire, of grant healing through the act of flagellation. Active.
• Striker- Monsoon: A Striker that excels in hit-and-run assassination tactics with a medium cooldown. When summoned, he can perform a handful of attacks with his sais, separate into a magnetic tornado and then corkscrew forward, perform a leaping stab attack with high crit rate, throw a smoke bomb, or take a couple seconds to gather up loose metal into a large mass to hurl at a target (though taking too much damage during the charge will stop the move).

Zenkichi Hasegawa:

Inventory: A Steel sword, a Silver sword, 4 [3] Dimeritium bombs (These block the usage of magic in an area for about 30 seconds), 4 [3] Grapeshot bombs (These detonate into a deadly blast of shrapnel). Hanged Man’s Venom (A blade oil containing a poison deadly to humans and humanoid creatures like elves, dwarves and such), Draconid oil (A blade oil which is poisonous to draconic creatures), and Cursed Oil (A blade oil poisonous to cursed beings, such as werewolves, berserkers, and Botchlings). A flask containing five [three] doses of Swallow (A potion which improves the healing of wounds and the body’s recovery from them), and another containing five [five] doses of Cat (A potion which grants sight even in total darkness, as well as an immunity to hypnotic effects for around half an hour). One hunting knife, with a smooth front edge and serrated back edge. A hand crossbow with 30 [29] small bolts (mostly for hunting, but the bolts are capable of harming humans with even light armor, due to the crossbow’s shockingly high draw weight). One 30-foot length of rope. Six chunks of salted pork rations. Geralt wears a suit of half-plate armor. It best protects against attacks from blades and claws. In addition to these, Geralt also carries the alchemical ingredients necessary to create two more batches of his oils, potions and bombs (One more for grapeshot). Finally, Geralt’s Wolf medallion acts as a magic detector, vibrating when in the presence of magic, to a scale equivalent to the strength of the magic present.

Bleed Amulet:reduces his exceptional poison resistance to merely fantastic levels, but makes it harder to cause him to bleed, and mystically increases his own ability to spill his enemy's blood.

Sword Primid Sticker (equipped), Primid Sticker (equipped), Beam Sword, 55 Gil, 475 Gold.

Steel Diver:A handheld torpedo launcher. The torpedoes don't seek, but they do shoot straight forward after a brief delay as if the air itself was water, and boat impressive stopping power despite limited ammunition. With 7 missiles.

ATG Missile Mark 1: A shoulder-mounted missile platform that has a 10% chance to fire a seeking missile at an enemy that is struck by the wearer's attack, when the attack makes contact. The missile deals 300% of the damage of the attack that triggers it. It does not inflict splash damage

One Pirate Paint Brush: An incredibly rare find. At first glance it seems to have no function, but if applied at the Fountain of Dreams, it can turn anyone into a pirate version of themselves

Geralt also has a plasma pistol from Tora, which can be recharged by electricity. This item was lost when Mirage returned to Limsa Lominscuttle via Palico and remains with him.

Monsoon's Katanas and Sai: A pair of sai with no special properties. Two katanas from Monsoon, one of which has innate fire damage, the other which possesses innate lightning damage.

Name: Zenkichi Hasegawa, “Wolf”

Game Origin: Persona 5 Strikers

Appearance: A tall, fit man, befitting his occupation as a Public Security Agent, Zenkichi tends to wear the same outfit whenever it is remotely appropriate: a black suit with jarringly out of place white sneakers. He keeps his black hair about shoulder-length, and wears a simple pair of square rimless glasses.

As Wolf, the Phantom Thief, Zenkichi’s appearance changes dramatically. He wears a black ankle-length tailcoat with black tassels at the end of the sleeves with a silverish-gray collar folded up at forehead-length with a large-brimmed fedora-based hat attached on the collar with a long swordfish-like point up at the front of the hat as the tailcoat has large 'V'-fashioned lapels. He also wears a high-collared jacket coat with silver accents with matching double bandolier belts and a matching holster belt where he can keep his firearm on the right side and puts the belt around his waist with another holster belt on the left side, with black pants and silverish-gray accented black winklepicker shoes.

Appearances:

Zenkichi Hasegawa

Wolf

The host's skin has gotten a little darker, and he has a slightly stronger brow, bigger nose, and much stubblier face. His hair is a little shorter and curls up in front. His build is slightly wider. His tie is gone, and his shirt is white instead of blue, with one more button undone. His jacket is less like a suit jacket and more like a coat, with yellow patches and a taller collar. His personality is a little less high-strung. The host has gotten taller, standing at about 6 feet, 4 inches tall, in addition to gaining some visible muscle mass. His skin has darkened further, and his hair has turned a dark blue while shortening to reach his ears. His suit has been replaced with a dark blue tunic and gray pants, and he has gained some armor pieces. His shoulders are covered by pauldrons, while his forearms and shins are protected by vambraces and greaves. Personality-wise, the host has become less bound by a sense of duty to order, and more inclined to follow his own personal ideals of honor and justice.

Personality: Zenkichi is, generally, a very straightforward person, even telling the Phantom Thieves outright that they were the prime suspects in the Jail Outbreak case he was investigating, and that he didn’t believe they were actually responsible, offering to work with them to catch the real culprits. He is an intelligent and shrewd individual with a strong sense of justice, risking his life and his career to protect his newfound allies.

His fraught relationship with his daughter and the death of his wife have caused his self-worth to falter, Zenkichi spent a long while keeping his head down, focusing on his job while quietly waiting for the opportunity to strike against those responsible for what he’d lost. His Persona, Valjean, represents the desire to live a moral life and seek justice against the evil that he had once lost sight of in his desperation to protect his daughter from forces beyond his reach. As Wolf, the Phantom Thief, Zenkichi is relentless in the pursuit of justice, tearing through enemies with heavy weapons and Almighty spells. He understands that the Monarchs the Phantom Thieves hunt have traumas which induced their situations, but he does not let that knowledge give him pause in seeking to bring them to justice.

As the bearer of the Apostle Arcana (Sometimes referred to as the Priest or the Hierophant), Zenkichi represents both fairness and compassion, bringing justice to evildoers, but not condemning them as lost causes as others might.

A little less high-strung due to fusing with Devinder Crousley's Spirit.

Background: A Public Security Agent from Tokyo, Zenkichi and his daughter Akane moved to Kyoto after the death of his wife, Aoi, at the hands of a drunk driver with political influence who blamed the accident on his secretary. This incident lead to the suicide of that secretary and a tense relationship between Zenkichi and Akane, as the former received threats against his daughter’s life. In a small twist of fate, the politician protecting the killer was Masayoshi Shido, the same man who had Joker, Zenkichi’s eventual ally, arrested for protecting a woman from sexual assault at his hands.

Zenkichi, in return, kept his head down, did his job, and entrusted his superior officer to one day, when she was powerful enough, get justice in his stead. This, however, enraged his daughter, who saw the lack of action as cowardice on his part. She became a fan of the Phantom Thieves for their strong sense of justice and unwillingness to back down in the face of a fight, while Zenkichi was tasked with investigating them after a new rash of heart-stealing incidents appeared to be occurring throughout Japan. Secretly the work of Akira Konoe and Kuon Ichinose to bring true justice to the world and understand the hearts of humanity, respectively, Zenkichi immediately saw the differences between the two cases and struck a deal with the Phantom Thieves. Providing them with police intelligence and assisting them in breaking the Monarchs' chains, Zenkichi eventually Awakened his own Persona, Valjean, when fighting to rescue the Thieves from his own daughter’s Jail, where the truth of his actions was laid bare to him: by refusing to fight for justice for his daughter’s sake, he allowed the family of the deceased secretary to suffer for crimes they did not commit. Re-affirming his belief in justice, Zenkichi and the Phantom Thieves put a stop to the re-emerging Demiurge, arrested those responsible, and used the opportunity to also bring the killer of Zenkichi’s wife to justice.

Bidding a fond farewell (for now) to the Phantom Thieves, Zenkichi and Akane were shortly thereafter brought to the World of Light, their memories of understanding and reconciliation twisted and robbed from them, though the loss of Aoi still remained, Zenkichi has regressed to a semi-awakened fighter for justice, searching to bring down a conspiracy he doesn’t fully understand at the heart of Midgar.

Job: Phantom Thief

Specialty: Bruiser- Among the Phantom Thieves, Zenkichi stands out as an offensive powerhouse, capable of both dealing out damage and taking hits. He is not quite as tanky as Ryuji, but he makes up for it by being both physically and magically stronger than he is. Combined with his lack of elemental weakness, unresistable Almighty magic, and some minor buffing and debuffing ability, Zenkichi is the best all-around fighter that the Thieves can field, barring Joker with an extremely powerful Persona.

Level: 7
Experience: 67/70

Abilities:

• Apostle Persona- Valjean (Phantom Thief)
  
  Valjean
  
  A Persona based off the protagonist of Les Misérables, Valjean represents Zenkichi’s desire to live a good and moral life after being granted a second chance. With no weaknesses and powerful offensive abilities, Valjean is a truly terrifying frontline combatant, as well as providing quality mid-range combat potential with Gun and Almighty skills, and a minor array of buffs and debuffs.
  
  Begins with the spell Megido, an Almighty spell that deals medium unresistable magic damage to enemies in a wide area, and the attack Triple Down, which deals light Gun damage to enemies in a wide area three times. Each “shot” of triple Down can miss or be dodged.
• Level 2 Ability: -Kaja Suite (Phantom Thief) - Zenkichi gains Tarukaja, Rakukaja, and Sukukaja, which can temporarily boost one ally's attack power, defense, or agility for a short period of time (roughly one minute). These buffs share a collective cooldown of one minute.
• Level 3 Ability: Fury (Phantom Thief) - A self buff for Zenkichi that increases his offensive capabilities in exchange for slowly draining his vitality. While Fury mode is active, Zenkichi's attack power and attack speed are increased, and each of his sword attacks lets out a small AoE shockwave in the direction of his sword swing. His Vampiric Strikes ability still works while Fury is active, but the vitality drain is typically faster than the absorption, unless Zenkichi is cleaving through a very large number of enemies, and even then it's usually only enough to roughly break even.
• Level 4 Ability: Offensive Improvement (Phantom Thief) - Zenkichi gains the attacks Deathbound and One-Shot Kill. Deathbound summons a swarm of hands from the ground to deal Medium Physical damage to a wide area two times, with each attack being dodgeable. One-Shot Kill deals Severe Gun damage to a narrow area, with a high chance of dealing Critical damage.
• Level 5 Ability: Megidola (Phantom Thief) - A powerful spell which deals Heavy unresistable Almighty magic damage to a wide area.
• Level 6 Ability: Heat Riser (Phantom Thief) - a superior buff skill that combines Tarukaja, Sukukaja, and Rakukaja, increasing the recipient's attack, defense, and speed for roughly 1 minute. Has a cooldown of roughly 3 minutes, separate from the individual buff skills.
• Level 7 Ability: Megidolaon (Phantom Thief) - The most powerful Almighty attack available to Zenkichi, Megidolaon summons a beam of energy that causes an explosion, which deals severe unresistable magic damage to a wide area, with a high chance of dealing critical damage.
• Free Ability (Tycoon Battle Reward): Agneyastra (Phantom Thief)- The most powerful physical attack Zenkichi can muster, Agneyastra deals medium physical damage, in the form of a swarm of meteorites, to a wide area three times, with a high chance of dealing critical damage. Each individual attack can be dodged.
• Sandalphon's Covenant (Covenant) - At the start of trials, inflicts the "Locked Sigil" debuff on the host for 300 seconds, but grants them the "Preservation Protocol" effect. The user can change which Protocol is active (Preservation, Restoration, or Purification) by announcing its name. These Protocols activate when a Skill is used and provide a defense buff, a health burst, and a status cleanse respectively. These effects will target himself if an offensive skill is used, or the target if a support skill is used. Locked Sigil's remaining time will be reduced by six seconds each time the user uses a Skill and by 18 seconds each time the user removes an affliction from an ally. When the Locked Sigil effect wears off, the user will be granted the "Sigil Released" effect instead. Sigil Released grants the user all three Protocols at once, marked by the appearance of a halo above the host’s head.
• Ike Fusion Ability: Eruption (Ranger) - Causes blue flames to build up on the host's sword when its held with both hands facing the ground. These flames continue to intensify over the course of a couple seconds, during which the host's stance is extremely difficult to break at all, until the blaze tops out. When the sword is finally plunged down, it unleashes pillars of flame that deal heavy damage and guard break. A longer charge boosts the size, damage, and number of eruptions.
• Tyrael Fusion Ability: Smite (Archangel)- Calls down a blast of the host's primary element in an area to deal damage. It leaves behind a field that boosts allies' movement speed by 25% for 2 seconds. The field itself lasts for 6 seconds, the same as the ability's cooldown, though it still takes a chunk of SP to use.

Skills:

• Combat Prowess (Phantom Thief) - Whether as Wolf or Zenkichi, he is a formidable foe. Boasting excellent strength thanks to his Persona, a robust health pool, and a lack of elemental weaknesses, Zenkichi Hasegawa is a great ally to have in battle, as well as a fearsome enemy.
• Investigator’s Eye (Phantom Thief) - As a Public Security Agent, both before and after the World of Light’s creation, Zenkichi is an excellent detective, catching things that others might miss and being able to piece together clues with ease.
• Vampiric Strikes (Phantom Thief) - Zenkichi has the ability to regenerate a small amount of life/health from each successful non-ability attack on an enemy.
• Paracryptozoologist (Paranormal Investigator) - Grants a degree of strong intuition about supernatural creatures, specifically figuring out their behaviors and attributes.

Weaknesses:

• Self-Doubt - After the death of his wife and the alienation of his daughter, Zenkichi’s sense of self-worth took a nosedive. Even his codename is representative of this: he chose the moniker of wolf to separate himself from the dog of the state he felt he had become. When it comes to taking care of his daughter or others, he’s quick to be hard on himself, perhaps more than is necessary.
• Ties to Akane - While not strictly a weakness per se, Zenkichi’s relationship with his daughter is…less than ideal, especially given that they will be working back to the state they were at when Galeem destroyed the worlds. She can see right through him, and he strives to be somebody she can be proud of, even if he stumbles along the way. He is willing to do anything to protect her, which is what landed him in his unfortunate situation in the first place- threats against her life caused him to keep his head down, try not to rock the boat, and just deal with the corruption staring him in the face. And, of course, she can be targeted to hurt him, though that comes with the risk of angering the wolf inside and winding up in a world of hurt.
• Sluggish Striker - While Zenkichi is the strongest Phantom Thief, the great size of his weapon also makes his attacks slower and easier to dodge. While his revolvers can mitigate this weakness somewhat, they also have a semi-limited ammo pool (regenerating when Valjean is re-summoned at the start of a fight) and take quite a while to reload during a fight.
• Ladlubber - He is much less good at swimming. From Devinder Crousley's Spirit.
• Weapon Trilemma: Sword - Decreases the host's accuracy against (but increases the damage taken from) enemies wielding polearms, including spears, lances, halberds, javelins, scythes, and so forth by 15%. From Ike’s Spirit.
• Mana Hungry - Increases the SP cost of all skills by approximately 10%. From Tyrael’s Spirit.

Spirits:

• Striker- Sosha
  A spear-wielding dragoon with a wind affinity, fiery spirit, and short cooldown. She can attack with her polearm, performing rapid stabs or a lunging stab, or perform a high jump followed up a plunging thrust that pierces defense to deal serious damage if she managed to land it. Additionally, she can be summoned to grab and carry her host prior to a landing, which will negate fall damage.
• Inherited- Devinder Crousley. A paranormal investigator and amateur cryptozoologist. Found on the corpse of one of Lady Nya’gai’s victims. Grants the Paracryptozoologist Ability, along with the Landlubber Weakness.
• Fused- Ike. Leader of the Greil Mercenaries and wielder of the Legendary blade, Ragnell. Grants the Eruption Ability, along with the Weapon Trilemma: Sword Weakness.
• Fused- Tyrael. Archangel of Justice, ally of the Horadrim against the Prime Evils. Grants the Smite Ability, along with the Mana Hungry Weakness.

Guest List: The Phantom Thieves- Zenkichi’s allies in taking down the Monarchs in the Metaverse, Zenkichi is separated from his young co-conspirators, and in this strange new world, would prefer to at least know what they’re up to, despite them having gone their separate ways after their last adventure.

Akane Hasegawa- Zenkichi’s daughter, and the singular most important person to him in the world after his wife’s death. Zenkichi threw aside his personal beliefs to try and protect her, though for a while he only succeeded in pushing her further away by doing so.

Hector of Ostia- Marquess of Ostia, wielder of the Lightning Axe Armads, and one of the Slayers of the Fire Dragon, Hector is a noble and stalwart warrior, and a proactive leader of his territory. He suffers no fools and is fiercely protective of his daughter, Lilina. However, Hector hides from many a dark secret- he is cursed to die in battle, rather than enjoy a peaceful end.

Inventory: Claymore (manifests with Valjean), Dual Revolvers (manifest fully loaded with Valjean each fight and can be reloaded once per fight, albeit slowly), cell phone, 2,000 Yen (currency). 530 Kins (Psionic Currency, Universal Pistol Ammo x4 (Any sidearm that can be wielded and fired in a single hand can accept ammunition from this miraculous pickup for a full refill), Memory Alloy x2 (can be sold or used to forge weapons), machine core x3

Closing Statement
A heavy greatsword of futuristic make. It's shorter than one might think but quite wide, capable of high destructive power if wielded with enough strength. Even its crossguard or the blunt back of its blade can deal substantial impact damage. Its weight makes it impractical to use for defense however. It deals bonus Dark damage and comes with the weapon skill Closer: After an ally attacks, an enemy with less than 30% health, increases combat readiness (a mix of dexterity and speed) of the wielder against that enemy by 35% and boosts perception for 20 seconds. Can only be activated once every 20 seconds

Hero's Sword
A long straight saber, almost like a kendo stick, with an elaborate white handguard. Its laser blade glows brilliantly as a breaking dawn, its vivid red a foreboding promise to any who lurk in the dark. Wielded with dexterity and righteous resolve, it inflicts concentrated heat damage, capable of stripping armor in order to reduce defense, and its range can be extended when slashing (and especially stabbing) at the expense of some SP/mana/energy

Greatsword
A coarse iron lump of an ultra greatsword. Mows down foes by utilizing its incredible weight.

Etiquette
A self-defense weapon adored by the leader of the Bastards. It can be disguised as an umbrella, but it bares its teeth in the moment of attack. Social dignity can be seen not only in the ballroom but also on the battlefield. The leader of the Bastards did not lose his poise on either stage. This one-handed rapier is best suited for dexterous hands, but its canopy can provide crucial protection as well

Vest of the Dead
A Protector that takes the form of an old-fashioned suit vest. It provides a surprising amount of defense but has no secondary bonuses

Can of Sham
A can of high quality Shamway ham, the number 1 maker of meat-like products. The lunch of champions. The recipe is top secret and better left undisclosed. Provides a little health when eaten. Can be used to make much tastier, heartier Sham Chowder

Ammo Box
A rusted metal tin that can be set down and opened to fully resupply long guns and handguns (no more than one apiece) for up to three people

Airhorn
A child's toy, serving as a reminder of Galeem's cruelty.

Outfits
Several easily-equipable outfits, contained in vacuum-sealed bags. One “Policeman’s uniform” and one “HAZMAT Suit.”

Bowler hat
A smart-looking hat that, nonetheless, doesn’t quite fit Zenkichi’s typical style.

Name: Edelgard von Hresvelg

Origin: Fire Emblem: Three Houses

Appearance:

Personality: Edelgard carries within her a deep wellspring of hatred for evil, brought about by the torture she endured under Those Who Slither in the Dark. However, her psyche is twisted deeply by that torture, and she is willing to commit atrocities in the name of destroying evil, fully aware of the irony in doing so. If she sees no better way, she will not hold back for the sake of her own morals or to keep her conscience clean. Edelgard will do anything for the ends that she seeks, which can easily rub others the wrong way.

She is not heartless, but she is more than willing to act the part for what she believes to be the greater good, going so far as to plunge her homeland into a years-long war to rid it of the influence of what she perceives to be evil organizations abusing their power for their own ends. When faced with the hypocrisy of her actions, Edelgard is not afraid to admit that such is the truth, but will not back down from her course of action nonetheless.

Ultimately, the trust and assistance of those closest to her are Edelgard’s greatest assets and most trusted treasures, as without those things, she has lived with nothing but enemies and terrible memories around her.

Socially, she can appear cold to those she is not close with, affecting a refined air befitting her status as Emperor. Secretly, she is simultaneously afraid to trust others, but desperate to find somebody worthy of such trust. If somebody irritates her, she has been known to, somewhat childishly, mockingly imitate them behind their backs. As a friend and ally, she is steadfast and loyal, willing to protect those closest to her at risk to herself, and showing a somewhat unexpected unwillingness to endanger those closest to her for her goals.

Background:

In the Now: Edelgard serves as a Lieutenant in the armies of Skyworld, leading angelic strike forces against corrupted enemies, in an ironic twist of fate that once more has her serving under the command of religious authorities.

Job: Flame Emperor

Specialty: Physical Dreadnought with some magical ranged damage and healing.

Inventory: Steel shield, Emperor’s Armor, Short ax(es) (throwable, 25 uses) 3 doses of elixir (fully heals the user), Large Bouillon (can be sold for 5,000 zenny to the right dealer), Black Eagle Pendant

Lv: 1

EXP: 0/10

Abilities:

• Aymr - A false Heroes’ Relic made specifically for Edelgard, Aymr is an ax of tremendous power. In addition to dealing extra damage to draconic foes, it serves as a symbol of royal power: if Edelgard faces an enemy alone, it will have a demoralizing effect on them, reducing their attack and defense somewhat.
• Basic Magic - Edelgard can cast the basic spells Fire and Heal. Fire is a basic offensive spell that deals modest fire damage, and heal is a basic healing spell that restores roughly one-quarter of a target’s health. Each spell can be used ten times per combat.

Skills:

• Mighty Glacier - Edelgard is an archetypal example of the mighty glacier trope. Each swing of her ax can fell lesser enemies, and she can take dozens of blows from the same without so much as a scratch.
• Hammerspace - Through a clever series of pouches, straps, and a dash of magic from her advisors, Edelgard can carry significantly more than is immediately apparent on her, grabbing useful items and even weapons on her person from seemingly nowhere.
• Dual-Crest Bearer - Edelgard possesses two Crests, a Major Crest of Flames, and a Minor Crest of Serios. The Crest of Seiros grants her Abilities a small amount of additional power, while the Crest of Flames heals her for a small amount with each blow dealt to an opponent, and rarely shields her from an opponent’s counterattack.

Weaknesses:

• Heavy Armor - Edelgard’s armor, while useful in helping protect her from damage, is far from light. It slows her movement down noticeably, leaving her vulnerable to being chipped at by enemies with sufficient power or magic to harm her.
• Magic Vulnerability - While not quite as dramatic as her lack of speed in armor, Edelgard’s armor does little to protect her from magical attacks, forcing allies to engage and take the heat off of her if she is targeted by a magic user with any sort of long-ranged attacks.
• Weapon Trilemma: Axes - Decreases Edelgard’s accuracy against (and increases the damage taken from) enemies wielding swords and sword-like weapons by 15%.

Spirits: (Any spirits your character possesses should be listed here with their type)

• Spirit name - Type

Name: The Witch
Origin: Path of Exile
Appearance:
The waiflike witch hardly cuts an imposing figure. Her sickly-pale skin is stretched over a narrow and bony frame almost bereft of muscle tone, and her dark hair hangs loosely down past her shoulders like a mass of wet seaweed. She dresses herself in patched-together robes adorned with a mess of salvaged talismans—charms and trinkets, polished bones and glistening gemstones, each worn smooth by her touch. If anything stands out, though, it’s her eyes: their striking blue color seems to shine with an unnatural intensity, the clearest hint of the nightmarish powers hidden behind her sallow features.

Personality:
She can be affable enough when she wants to be, if one can overlook her disaffected manner and occasional snark. Make no mistake, though: the Witch is a mistrustful ally at best, driven only by her hunger for power, her thirst for vengeance, and her twisted fascination with the macabre. Proud of her craft, she carefully amasses knowledge and strength without sacrificing her sense of self, and disdains those who lose sight of their goals or become fixated to the point of insanity. The world has taught her that any weakness or mistake will be harshly punished, but she also knows that so long as she survives she can continue to learn and grow—until one day, no one can stand against her.

Background:
Fiercely intelligent even from a young age, the Witch’s burgeoning curiosity soon led her down a dark path into forbidden texts and the study of dangerous thaumaturgy. Her talents in this field proved to be exceptional, but her growing power was met with fear and persecution by the deeply religious people of Oriath. Seeking to wipe her out, a mob set fire to her home and burned her family alive. In turn, the Witch wrought bloody revenge upon their children, an act that ended with her clapped in chains and exiled to the cursed continent of Wraeclast.
Luckily for her, a storm wrecked her prison ship before it could reach the coast, and she washed ashore half-drowned but free. Eluding monsters, cannibals, and the undead, she soon began to accumulate strength, find allies among the locals, and slaughter her way across the continent from bottom to top. Her path eventually led her all the way back home, where she joined hands with a rebel faction to overthrow the ruling theocracy and strike down the god that had been controlling it from behind the scenes.
Her trials would not end there, however. The collateral damage of her previous rampage had unleashed a whole pantheon of other gods previously sealed away, all of them hungry for a slice of human civilization. After a blistering early defeat that left her cursing her own arrogance, the Witch rose to this challenge as well, and battled god after god until they could finally be sealed away once more. At last, a fragile peace returned to the lands, and no one remained to oppose her…
…Which only left her free to cause even more trouble. Before long she’d left her own world behind and set out across a wide atlas of dreamlands and alternate dimensions, indirectly setting off a chaotic war with the entire universe on the line.

In the Now: Torn from her old existence, the Witch currently doesn’t remember more than flashes of her life before the World of Light. Currently she blends in with the diverse people of Meridi-at-han, hunting monsters and dinosaurs in the wilds around the city and selling parts stripped from their bodies.

Job: Witch
Specialty: Elemental and dark magic attacks, area buffs/curses, and swarms of summoned minions.
Inventory: Wand, circlet, spirit shield, miscellaneous clothing, several scrolls and gemstones.

Lv: 1
EXP: 0/10
Abilities:

• Wand – The Witch’s wand is a weapon in itself. With a flick of her wrist, she can fire off swift-flying kinetic energy projectiles without expending any of her own mana.
• Fireball – Unleashes a flaming projectile that violently explodes on impact, damaging nearby enemies and lighting things on fire.
• Raise Zombie – A spell that consumes a creature’s corpse to create an animate flesh construct, which follows the Witch around and autonomously attacks anything openly hostile to her. Zombies are extremely durable and surprisingly fast, and require no mana to keep going after the initial spell is cast. However, the Witch can only keep around ten of them active at a time, unless her capabilities are somehow being boosted.

Skills:

• Energy Shield - The Witch’s tremendous will surrounds her with a shimmering barrier against physical and magical attacks, a barrier that must first be pierced before she becomes vulnerable. If she goes two seconds without taking damage to her shield, it will rapidly regenerate to full strength.
• Crafting – The Witch is adept at modifying and enchanting pieces of gear, clothing, and equipment to maximize their beneficial effects.

Weaknesses:

• Squishy caster – The Witch is a pure spellcaster, and her physical specs are pretty unimpressive as a result. She’s not very strong, not naturally swift nor agile, and not particularly durable once you get past her barrier. Her tactics in a close-quarters fight are pretty much limited to casting her spells at point-blank range and hoping for the best.
• Mana pool – The Witch’s spells draw from a limited pool of Mana, which refills itself at a steady pace. If she casts too many powerful abilities in quick succession, she can end up briefly spent until her pool recovers.
• Gear-reliant – Much of the Witch’s power comes from her equipment and clothing, which she modifies to maximize her strength. If she’s disarmed, it can severely hinder her ability to retaliate.

Level: 6
Experience: 24/60

Game Origin: Super Mario Sunshine
Personality: Bratty, spoiled and rude jr takes a lot after his doting father, both due to his upbring and due to his craving for respect and and acknowledgment of others, especially his father. Jr also generally dislikes been treated like a child, despite acting his age nearly all the time. He is somewhat smarter than his father, not that this requires much of an intellect, and a touch less stubborn as well, being able to swallow his pride if it is necessary. He is also somewhat lonely as a combination of his royal status, a lack of many acquaintances in his age group and, of course, his own rather abrasive attitude. The Koopalings, for example, act as more mentors or underlings than anything close to companions.

He also likes big dangerous machines and he really, really likes giant robots.

After fusing with B’giotahmo Bravha jr has become more calm and gentle.

Apperance: Jr initaly appeard as he does in Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle.

After fusing his ears and tail with B’giotahmo Bravha he has gotten taller with more humanoid proportions. His tail is longer, thinner, and has a mix of blue and orange fur running along the top of it. The host's hair is the same, a mix of blue and orange, and is a bit longer, with cat ears poking out the top. The host has a more human face, and is now wearing a white long coat with red lining

After fusing with Vespikan Ferromancer his right arm has become covered in an inflexible chitin in place of scales, onto/into which iron runes have been carved/tattooed. The hand is absolutely covered in these, making it appear almost entirely metallic.

After fusing both Undyne and Omori into his right arm, the scales on Junior's right arm turn a bit more blue, but then the colors on his arm got more muted overall. It has some light piece of metal armor strapped around the forearm and bicep, as well as a light gauntlet and shoulder plate.

Background: Bowser jr is the only son of the Koopa King Bowser. First seen in super mario sunshine where he kidnapped peach and impersonated mario, Jr now has a long history of battling against mario, generally alongside his father but occasionally solo. Jr was also present at the failed cliffside battle against Galeem and was, along with almost everyone else, blasted Galeem almost immediately.
In the now Bowser jr was unstoried when the version of his father he was living with that was a Guardian was killed by a different version of his father who was one of the first seekers. A bit of an odd way to come about it, but then the Guardian version had been the version who was infected by the megabug that one time, he got over/rationalized it pretty quick.

The prince then took a nap, fixed up a bunch of cars, including his personal mini clown car, and caught a Mimkyu that he named Mimi as his first pokemon/minion, before setting off east along with the rest of the seekers. There he explored the land of venture, took a tiny teleport in and out of the dead zone, before along with the rest of the team defeating the region's guardian and freeing smash city Alcamoth in the process, which he used as a hub for graffiti art based warp paintings till it was destroyed.

He then headed to the Deep Blue along with Kamek, where they acquired an airship, and then set out on a scouting/probing attack vs the abyssal fleet. In doing so they fred/converted 2 members of said fleet. The princess Bella who offered them a lot of information on her fleet and, more importantly, a nameless grunt trooper who would come to be known as Rika.

While others got busy in Limsa Lominscuttle town using their help in the previous battle to get themselves in on an upcoming major offensive vs the fleet, the converted abyssals hid out aboard the ship, and Jr hid out with them. During this time Rika got her name, and her and jr’s bond began to take root as he took responsibility for unshackling her from the gauntlets that had been permanently strapped around her arms.

They then traveled north through the blue, broke the abyssal’s strongholds, survived the horrors of the Maw, slew the fleets leaders on caress isle, and finally the region’s gardien along with it. After a quick stop for a beach party during which Jr caught a Popolio named Dazzle and added it to his team, they headed back to smash city via portal, and then down to twilight town to link up with the rest of the seekers.

After that, it was down to the under, where Bowser ended up adopting Rika due in part due to how close Jr had grown to her, as well as acquiring the latest member of his team, a Flutter Mane named Peeka. Also they killed a guardian and a Consul, and learned that the world of light was actually ancient.

Finally they de-stressed in Carnival town, found out the Avenger, and then his papa and Kamek both went off with Peach without him, which has left the prince in a bit of a huff, but it's hardly the first time this has happened to him. His new sister took it worse, and he’s done what he can to help her adapt.

Job:Beast Master
Specialty:Jr provides a wealth of magical and mechanical support and firepower, but is somewhat lacking in mobility.

Bowser Jr: Level 14 EXP: ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////(147/140)

Abilities:

• Withdraw: Bowser Jr pulls his head and limbs inside his shell for added defense or to perform a Koopa shell spin/slide attack.
• Life from the slime: the goop from the magic paintbrush now passively spawns Swoopin' Stus, simple creatures that resemble transparent flapjack octopuses with a ball of goop within their bodies. They attack Jr’s enemies by jumping at them and exploding into a splatter off goop. They also spatter into goop when killed. In battle can spread Jr’s graffiti to capture more ground and thus create more surface area that spawns more Stus. Stu’s won't explode unprovoked, preventing them from becoming a true self replicating night mare. That and a massive vulnerability to water.
• warp graffiti: Jr can use his magic paintbrush to paint a M with two accent marks above it within which can be seen a distant location. These paintings can be entered, warping the entree to the start of that location (in front of peach’s castle’s gate, just before the ramp for the approach to The End, the base of the argent energy tower, etc.) The best rule of thumb would be that it is the start of a level in a game. These warps are one way, but Jr is not limited in the number he can make, allowing him to rapidly link up locations he has been to via warps.
• Fire Breathing (Kid sized): Jr can huck fireballs like his pappy, but they are, of course, smaller, weaker and less numerous than the big man’s own affair, but they do come with some special tricks up their sleeves. Come in two flavors: quick and bouncy like a certain plumber’s hand thrown fireballs or slow and homing with the added benefit of leaving a patch of fire when they hit the ground. He also has a regular, if again comparatively weak compared to his dad’s, fire-breath for short ranged roasting.
• Elemental goop: Jr’s magic paintbrush can now create two new types of goop, shocking goop and burning goop, which do additional elemental damage. Shocking goop is a mix of teal and yellow, and will electrocute enemies that come into contact with it, damaging and stunning the foe. Burning goop meanwhile is a molten mix of oranges and reds and is superheated to the extent that it can ignite foes who come into contact with it, which can cause them to run around in a panic trying to put it out. Both goops can linger as a dot, dealing additional electric/heat damage over time until removed.
• Healer Basics(B’giotahmo Bravha): As long as jr has some sort of staff-like casting catalyst (such as his paintbrush), he can cast Cure to restore a burst of HP, Esuna to cleanse minor status effects, and Lucid Dreaming to gradually restore a third of his own MP.
• Holy Offense (B’giotahmo Bravha): Jr against the spell Repose: which inflicts sleep on an enemy for 30 seconds, and Stone, which rips rocks from the surrounding environment and hails the foe with a shower of earth element damage.
• Healer Basics Plus (B’giotahmo Bravha): Jr gains the spells Medica which heals himself and all allies in an circular aoe with a 15 yard radius, and Presence of Mind (usable every two minutes), which increases attack and casting speed by 20% for 15 seconds.
• Divine intervention(B’giotahmo Bravha): grants Jr two white mage spells: Benediction, which can instantly fully and freely heal a target within 30 yards, but which has a two minute cooldown and Holy, which deals damage and stuns foes (for 4 seconds) in an 8 yard radius around him, but has a 2.5 second cast and recast time. Each successively chained stun a target receives lasts half as long as the last (4-2-1-0)
• Ferromancy (Vespikan Ferromancer): allowing them to magically create iron objects out of their hand and arm. All new metal begins its life in contact with the host’s runes, though it can still be manipulated for a few brief moments afterwards. This can be used to quickly create and launch small blades/shards/spikes, form weapons or shields, coat their arm in metal armor or spikes etc. It can also be used more slowly to make complex components or higher quality equipment, weld things together, create small defenses or structures, etc.
• Monster metal (Vespikan Ferromancer/Undyne): via a combination of the Ferromancer and Undyne’s magic, Jr can now produce magic infused iron, as long as it comes in the form of spikes and spears. As well as giving it the ability to better harm foes with physical resistance (such as ghosts), it also lets the summoned objects still be manipulated even once they are no longer in contact with his body. They can either float close to Jr to be later launched at targets, or can have their trajectory altered once while in flight, letting the shots re-adjust if they miss, rain down from above when shot over a target, spike up after being launched under, or even orbit around the foe inorder to shoot them in the back.
• Sick 'Em (Astrid): which allows the host to perform a special weapon throw (for identical small weapons) that track somewhat and purge the target's most recent buff on hit.
• Z-Power: Jr can perform team attacks with his minions, consisting of him pouring a large amount of mana into one of them so they can unleash a powerful attack drawn either form their base form or from one of their fusions. These can be things like Z-moves for pokemon, such as Let's Snuggle Forever for Mimi the Mimikyu or an ultimate ability like Life Form Disintegration Ray for Peeka, which would be drawn from her Vel’Koz fusion.

Skills:

• Leadership: Certainly not a born one, jr nonetheless has learned this skill in-order to fill the royal boots of his father some day. Unlike his father, who leads as something of a general, jr has led his troops from the front. Or the back of the front at least, commanding squads of minions to do battle in his name while he manages their tactics and formation as a squad captain.
• Pint sized powerhouse: Despite his short stature jr is actually rather strong, capable of lifting several times his weight, and has a fair bit of the dexterity that his father lacks as he can skillfully wield all manner of weapons and do a fair bit of platforming as well. His shell also makes him fairly durable, tough nowhere near as much as his father.
• Mechanical skill: Bowser jr has shown a fair deal of skill when it comes to the use of machines, having piloted (and possibly designed) numerous mech, ships, cars and other combat vehicles. He can also hack emails.
• Scrap Mechanic: jr has learned how to better work with broken machinery others would simply throw away, be it fixing the team’s gear or salvaging enemy equipment for reuse, repair materials or upgrade components.
• Inkngineering: Jr can modify/enchant weapons to spread/fire the ink from his magic paintbrush. For example making the splattershot fire magic ink instead of squid ink, or making a melee weapon leave ink where it impacts.
• Monster Master: Bowser Jr is good at training, commanding and using various creatures, such as pokemon, tem-tems, battle pets, etc. He bonds quickly with them, inspires loyalty and has a knack for teaching them how to fight and act at his command.
• Olympian: The one with this strength has competed in numerous summer and winter olympic games, and has experience in and talent at all the various sports. They are proficient at any activities that are represented by those events. Notably it does not improve basic skills like running, jumping or swimming, but instead provides an extensive if esoteric list of talents from discus tossing to rowing to skiing, basketball, rhythmic gymnastics, bobsledding, etc.
• Stronger Together (Maw): The experience within the Maw has brought the Koopas closer together both with each other and with those that shared the experience with them. All of them gain increased confidence and constitution when in close proximity to other survivors of the Maw, knowing that they can trust their backs to be watched, and going the extra mile to make sure they can do the same.
• Feast (Maw): Eating anything will restore health in addition to its actual effects. Also, receive a fast-diminishing attack boost after eating
• Lance Aptitude (undyne): which includes both wielding and throwing proficiencies
• Emotions (Omori): which affect his stats a little based on his emotions: angry (+attack/-defense), happy (+speed/-accuracy), sad (+defense/-speed)

Weaknesses:

• Childish: reckless, impatient and impulsive, jr has a lot to learn.
• Small: He might be tough, but the lad is still only waist high.
• Supernatural separation anxiety (Maw): If unity is strength then separation is weakness and the Maw has taught that weakness will not be tolerated. Those with this curse will become overly worried if another of their number is not in the company of at least one other curse bearer, and especially worried if they go off on their own, which tends to cause reckless rushes to their aid.
• Dedicated Healer(B’giotahmo Bravha): decreasing the power of offensive magic by 20%
• Ventilate Heat: the metal inscriptions cause the arm to lose heat at a rapid rate. In environments that are not actively warm, the arm will feel unpleasantly cold and take more stamina to use than the uninscribed arm. Cold environments will make this worse, or be potentially dangerous. Insulation can prevent these issues, but will also reduce the effectiveness of any magic gained from the runes.
• Worse Depth Perception (undyne)
• Spider/Drowning Phobia (Omori)
• Earth Element (Astrid): which decreases the damage dealt to fire-aspected enemies by 20%

Spirits:

Active strikers

• Blodia A titan of vivid red and shining steel, too large to be fully summoned all at once. Instead, it can be called in on a long cooldown to deal attacks that cover huge areas with heavy damage. This abilities include Blodia Punch, a straight strike that hits like a freight train, Blodia Vulcan, a hail of gunfire, and Blodia Lift, which allows the striker to pick up or throw the host
• Sho A high-tech ninja wielding electric chain scythes. He can either perform quick melee slashes or a long-range scythe hurl every 10s. Every 30s, he can also perform Air Rend, hurling one scythe at an enemy that he then uses for flying grapple slash. Alternatively, he can use Evasion Rend to appear, then substitute a log that, if struck, lets him use Air Rend without having to land the projectile first
  Stored strikers
• Goomba Swarm
• Koopa Corps
• Primid Party
• Bytan Rollout
• Chef Bro cook-off
• Murlock Marines

  • Hone Claws
  • Shadow Sneak
  • Mimic
  • Electroball

  
  
  Modifications:
  Due to the absorption of a Spaark into her body, Mimikyu's body has recompositioned into a dark cloudlike substance, she gained a battery pack on back of disguise, and the ability to learn more electric moves going forward.
  
  (Maw Strength) Stronger Together: The experience within the Maw has brought the Koopas closer together both with each other and with those that shared the experience with them. All of them gain increased confidence and constitution when in close proximity to other survivors of the Maw, knowing that they can trust their backs to be watched, and going the extra mile to make sure they can do the same.
  
  (Maw Strength) Feast - Eating anything will restore health in addition to its actual effects. Also, receive a fast-diminishing attack boost after eating
  
  (Maw Weakness) Supernatural separation anxiety: If unity is strength then separation is weakness and the Maw has taught that weakness will not be tolerated. Those with this curse become increasingly agitated, nervous and jumpy without someone around to watch their back as the horrors of the Maw supernaturally claw their way out of the depths of their memories to assail them with reminders of their vulnerability and visions of false horrors in the shadows. Most extreme when out on their own, but even becoming separated slightly in a battle can cause the fear to start creeping in. (Minions, such as summons or pokemon, provide only a coping mechanism rather than a solution to this problem).
• Dazzle (Brionne): captured at Kanzuki Beach Estate, evolved in the beehive in the under

  Modifications:
  
  Bake-Kujira (Tail) The host has slightly increased in size overall, while darkening in color. His tail is longer and broader, its flippers jutting out at a more perpendicular angle, and much less flexible. The tail is also increasingly spectral toward the end, divided between murky teal flesh and ghostly blue energy juxtaposed over bone. This spirit grants the ability Twisting Dive, which allows the host to execute a cursed corkscrew leap. While diving, the host inflicts damage plus brief stun, is knockback-immune, and carries struck targets with him to the end point (as long as the targets are not larger/heavier than himself). At the end of the dash, a concussive splash deals extra damage, and this dive goes farther when underwater. This spirit also grants the weakness Lesser Pinniped Mobility. Due to the changes to the structure of the tail, he is no longer able to run on land like a sea lion, but must flop, roll, or slide like a seal
• Peeka (Flutter Mane): found within the Ancient Pools in the under, where creatures of long past dwell, she engaged in a lively game of peekaboo with Jr, before joining him on his adventure to escape the boredom of that ancient place.
  
  moves and modifications [+]

  Vel'koz('Necklace') The host's coloration is slightly greener, and the pink feathers a little more like tentacles. The main change concerns the 'pearls' around the host's neck, which are now brilliant glowing slitted pink-purple orbs like the eyes of Vel'koz itself. This spirit confers the ability Plasma Fission, allowing the host to fire out a plasma bolt that inflicts damage and a heavy 70% slow that quickly decays. While in flight, the host can will the bolt to split, firing off to the left and right at perpendicular angles. This spirit also confers the Weakness Low Mobility, decreasing the host's movement speed while floating

• Gaddbrush: also known simply as the magic paintbrush this weapon is capable of creating a harmful ink or goop like substance. This can be applied to enemies as a dot effect and to terrain to create hazard zones. Weapon wise it can either be used as a short spear or like a roller from splatoon.
• Jr Clown Car: jrs primary moad of transport is a miniture version of his papa's clown car. As the boy re-uses the machine far more often it has a fair number of additions. the most notable is the ability to deploy robotic arms sporting everything from boxing gloves to saw blades and drills on the end. It can also deploy cart wheels from it's base to replace the propeller, deploy wrecking balls in place of the arms and store numerous items within it's hammer-space glove compartment.
  
  clown car add-ons [+]

  • Flaming Balloon cannon: ones the 'mouth' of the car and extends a cannon, from which is fired a flaming balloon made in the image of the clown car itself, which has a homing capability and an explosive impact. stolen from the Sweet Tooth ice cream van belonging to Needles Kane. Replaced the standard Cannon
  • Splattershot - a strong squirt gun that fires black ink. It only directly harms hydrophobic targets like fire elementals. ground type pokemon, and Inklings, but it coats both targets and surfaces with sticky ink that impairs movement and makes the target more susceptible to damage. Installed on a deploy-able arm.
  • Synapse - An organic rifle whose internal organs generate potent charges of bioelectricity to accurately fry enemies at close or medium range. It unleashes 12 jolts per second in a continuous stream, with 72 jolts per charge and 6 seconds to fully recharge, though it won't fire while recharging. The weapon does not need to feed, but it should be cleaned. Installed on a deploy-able arm.
  • Sentient Meat Hook "When artificial intelligence became more commonplace, many companies jumped on the trend for "smart" products. This included smart doors, lights, coffee makers, lawnmowers, vacuum cleaners, bedding, kitchen knife sets, and other home goods. After a series of gruesome lawsuits stemming from hacked smart appliances, most products soon went back to their more traditional, analog lines."
    
    -"Why Is Smart So Dumb? VII"
    
    Can be ordered to fire out and hook enemies. Or friends. Or objects. Anything you want hooked really. Has a mind of its own and will hook things it thinks the user wants hooked based on their meta data, something it will get better at the more it is used. Heavy. Potentially a bit temperamental. Fires out of the mouth like a vicious chameleon tongue.
  • Fused with Egg Mobile-H (damaged): a hovering vehicle once used by the evil genius dr eggman. Comes equipped with a massive wrecking ball attached via a chain. Components stolen from it have increased the car's size a bit, and added more lifting power, rocket on the back for more forwards thrust, and upgraded the deployable wrecking ball to be much much larger.
  • A Mulcher cranck operated machine gun.
  • Padwah's Wheel: A tank wheel devoid of its treads, wielded as a weapon. Though more than applicable as a blunt instrument, it's been retrofitted with flamethrowers that allow it to serve as a blazing ring of destruction. An attached cable makes it usable like a yo-yo.
• Bloop Hood - a cowl to be worn over the head. It allows the wearer to breath and see freely underwater as well as slightly mitigating water resistance.
• Engineer Suitcase: acquired from Cindy Aurum in exchange for a bunch of junk acquired from raider vehicles, it contains an assortment of mundane tools used by GDI engineers for repairing buildings and vehicles, along with the ability to override security systems, though sadly there are no instructions for how to do this included with the kit
• Fishing Spear
• duffle bag A large cylindrical duffle bag with pokeball logos, useful for carrying stuff around outside the car.
• pokeballs (x10): For catching mons.
• bandolier across the chest that can hold 6 pokeballs
• pokemon potions: for healing mons
• poke puffs: for a treat
• Grapple Worm: A small, tubular creature, dull dark blue in color with coarse, high-friction black stripes, roughly the size of a long can. It can be held in one hand and squeezed, and depending on the part squeezed, it will extend a sticky pink tentacle from one or both ends. These tubes have mouths on the ends with extremely hard teeth which can latch onto most surfaces. This allows it to function as a grappling hook or, if both ends are out, a zip line. If it’s not fed plant matter every day, it will die, and it cannot function as a grappling hook when dead
• Tulip Hairstick: Plain, simple, and bulbous. Increases health a decent amount.

Game Origin: Kancolle
Personality:

Rita started as something of a blank slate, containing blind military obedience and little else, leaving her rather naive when it comes to many aspects in life. Work from her friends and the influence of fusion has filled this out somewhat. Her main defining trait that is all her own would be curiosity, the ship girl always eager for new experiences and information. She also has developed quite the sweet tooth for candy and desserts, but when it comes to main meals will actively try to taste test anything and everything she can.

Rika also cares deeply about her friends, a bit about other former abyssals, but is pretty dissociative when it comes to strangers, and has basically zero qualms about using violence against them.

The spirits she has absorbed have made her more assertive, impulsive and aggressive, and so she has a tendency to rush in and pick fights as a first option when it comes to protecting the people she cares about. She’s also started calling minions, and people she doesn’t like, plebs, as if her new royal title is getting to her head, and is rather enthused by the prospect of wealth.

Appearance:
Rika is a relatively short woman with pale human skin, a rather petite nose, crystal blue eyes and short bleach white hair with a single tuft of red over her forehead like L'Indomptable. This often isn’t visible however, due to her often wearing a spartan helmet done up in a black metal with pink highlights. It has the nameless spartan deserter’s cat ears on top and wyreven wing like ones up the side like rider and beast, and Tristana Titania Prime’s there pronged tiara on the front.

Her legs are reptilian, with saurian feet and Brachydios blue scales running up to her hips. This also isn’t usually visible due to her wearing a Agastya Alternate Costume that covers her from neckline to toe in a fine suit of black armor.

Without it she is adorned in a Aileen’s waistcoat hued white and gold, hung over a black and gold highlighted chest plate similar in shape to the spartans but more curved and elegant. Below this, covering her stomach, is Pacific Princess’s formal tank top, white with golden buttons, and below that a thigh length skirt sat like L'Indomptable’s, black underneath, white flaps on top, god Fleur-de-lises but with pink straps and ribbons.

Her legs are covered in white leggings which have metal plates strapped to her thighs like Vi does. Her feet finally are covered in hefty metal boots like L'Indomptable’s, but which sport short boots with hull-like platforms instead of having her walk around on her tiptoes.

Her arms have a rounded pauldron strapped to the fore arms, black with gold trim, while her forearms and hands are covered by her gauntlets. These consist of a pair of giant mechanical hands akin to VI’s, which feature the brute wyvern’s visage on the back of their palms (in a similar style to the jade lions on this skin) while still sporting both horns sticking out from their foreheads.

The left gauntlet has absorbed the grizco blaster, no longer requiring the awkward pipes from the horn to get a supply of explosive goop, and can now fire the ink blasts from a barrel in the palm. The grappling hook has also moved over here, and now sits on the back of the gauntlet’s palm. On the right, her rifle has also moved into the palm, and sports a rotating gatling style barrel the same size as the grizco blaster’s one. The chainsaw bayonet now runs along the back of her gauntlet’s hand and in between the middle knuckles, giving her punches from that hand some extra bite during and after impact.

At her waist sits Mikuma’s rigging, although it has been heavily modified, and has taken on many of the aspects of a Dark Magic Lampyre. A small emblem/buckle style after its helmeted head sits at the waist, while the back a large bunny tail like glowing orb sitting over her tailbone, flanked by Titania Prime’s gilded, hollowed-out, hip-mounted wings that are less articulate but do provided some flight control. The turrets have lost a barrel, while the remaining barrels have become thicker, and sport two orange spikes near the tips that together create a loose X shape. The lower red cleaver sections of the hullblades have been removed, and instead two orange claws curve out the front of the metal plates. The metal of the rigging has become a darker hue, while the red parts on the sides have been replaced by a purple armor plate going over the top of the weapon.

Background:
Rika was a nameless grunt of the Abyssal Fleet, a petty mostly unthinking warmachine

In the now :
Once a member of the Abyssal Fleet, Rika has barely any memory of her time as a nameless grunt among their ranks, either before the world of light or after. If she has any real accomplishment, it is that she, unlike nearly all the other abyssal grunts, had not been degraded by constant imperfect resurrections by their leaders, indicating either superior fighting skill or just luck.

Her first real memories are from after the magikoopa Kamek captured her and then freed her from galee’s influence, and by extension the fleet’s indoctrination. The koopa had intended to interrogate her on the nature of the fleet’s forces and ability to resurrect their fallen ships, but Sakura having freed the comparative and more knowledgeable seaplane tender Bella at the same time made this rather redundant.

She ended up being more or less just adopted into the Koopa Troop, with first Kamek and then also Bowser taking responsibility for her wellbeing as a new and valued member/minion of their crew. Her bond with Bowser junior is however the strongest, forged first when he freed her hands from her gauntlets, allowing her to interact with the world in a way that did not involve dealing death. The fact that she is, functionally, a child in terms of life experiences also put she and him on the same level, and the two gradually became each other's first true friend.

Despite this, the seekers are warriors, and the troop war mongers, and so they inevitably went back again all too soon, though this time with removable latches rather than being permanently welded on. Having to then face the rest of the fleet she had just been freed from, after having spent time in the place they sought to destroy, created a great deal of conflict in the girl, who found herself to kill her former allies who could, if shown mercy, surely be like her. As did, after the trauma of the maw, and the subsequent death of the Abyssal fleet’s high command, her position as one of the only people left alive who could take responsibility for the leaderless and broken remains of the fleet.

She ran from that responsibility, and tries not to think about it too hard as well. A child should not have to carry that weight.

After that they headed to twilight town, and then to the under, where she was formally adopted as Bowser’s daughter, rather than just being his underling, making her and Jr siblings, much to the delight of her new brother. Lacking a lot of context for this, the ship girl thinks she likes this new state of affairs. Which made Bowser and Kamek leaving to travel with Consul P/Peach hit very hard, as all but one rock in her new life was suddenly gone, and all she had left was Junior.

Job: Battle Cruiser
Specialty: On the water, Rika is a highly maneuverable weapons platform, gliding across the surface of the waves while unleashing vast amounts of firepower, or devastating ramming strikes via fists or spears. On land she is much the same, though her mobility is limited to foot slogging.

Rika: Level 10 EXP: ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////(66/100)
Abilities:

• Deployable Reconnaissance Planes: Rika can deploy a pair of remote control plane sized Abyssal Reconnaissance Planes, one from each gauntlet. While these little planes do have a weak pistol grade gun on them, their main advantage is the fact that they relay scouting and targeting information back to Rika. The gauntlets can repair/build replacement planes if provided relevant components, such as from a dispenser, but only have the housing and coms bandwidth to support one each.
• Blastscourge(Brachydios): allows her to exude a slime from her horns and gauntlets. Once activated by her saliva, the slime will explode after a few seconds if parted from her, or if she’s very angry, on contact with a target.
• Ship Shaped(Mikuma): gives a set of rigging in the form of two arms that terminate in hull-blades, with a tri-barrel cannon emplacement on each elbow. As long as the rigging is equipped, the host can skate across the surface of water.
• Moby Dick(Pacific Princess): allowing the host to spend a great deal of life force to summon a White Whale. The White Whale is very strong, especially its jaws, and can follow basic orders, including firing its cannons. The White Whale, once summoned, is a physical being and will only disappear if killed or a new one is summoned. It also must move around manually.
• Triple Torpedo Mistress (herself, Pacific princess and Mikuma): Rika’s gauntlets can store and deploy a number of forearm sized high speed torpedoes from the undersides of her gauntlets, which shoot through the water, delivering a hefty explosive payload to close range targets. On land these are obviously less useful, though having a source of on demand high explosives does have its advantages if she gets clever about it.
• All Out Assault (Mikuma): on every 8th’s shot from her main (8inch) gun her shot is enhanced into being a shower of 5 triple shots fired in a spread pattern
• Partial Shielding, giving her an advanced Mjolnir shield that covers her head and upper torso.
• Maneuvering Armor (Spartan Deserter): Rika gains a set of spartan armor that covers just her chest and which comes in the same black, white, and red coloration as her new helmet. Along with extending her shielding down, also comes with an attached thrust pack that user perform a forward dash every 4 seconds. Useful for engaging, repositioning and dodging.
• Grappleshot (deserter spartan): Rika gains a clip on device known as a grapple shot, which can be attached to and integrate with her own systems, specifically the inside of her right gauntlet’s ‘mouth’. The device can fire a grappling hook with an 8 meter range, which is capable of latching onto most surfaces, foes and items. Heavier grapple targets (such as the ground, and large foes) will pull Rika towards them, while smaller targets (like items and small foes) will be pulled to her. Has a short cooldown after use.
• Captain Ahab (Pacific Princess): Rika can expend stamina to teleport the spear of the Pacific Princess to her person (stamina drain scaling with distance) or vitality to form/repair it should it be damaged or destroyed. It is about 4 meters long, and tipped with a double barreled ship gun at one end (used for ranged force or added force/propulsion), and an arched spine of sharpened vertebrae ending with a long thin point at the other (creating a rather unconventional halberd head). A band runs from one end to the other, which can be used to sling it over a person’s back or for particularly convoluted flourishes. Just like the whale that is its twin, only one spear can exist at a time. Comes with the secondary superpower of knowing how to use the rather unorthodox weapon effectively.
• Disruption Cannons (Dark Magic Lampyre): Allows her to fire fist sized globs of dark magic from their rigging guns. When they strike, the globs release a small pulse of damaging dark magic, before sticking to the target and sapping some of their physical and magical strength until they are pulled/pried/shaken off. Each blob lasts for 30 seconds, and causes a 5% reduction each, for a maximum of 40%.
  
  The Disruption cannons take a large amount of a resource called SP to fire, which slowly regenerates on its own, but can also be actively regenerated by taking a few seconds to rest.
• Electro-swarm Hangers (Dark Magic Lampyre): Rika can now use SP to launch small swarms of insects (that look a bit like fireflies) formed out of pure electricity from her gauntlet mounted hangers. For a small amount of Sp she can launch a diversion swarm, which buzz around a target and flash and blink distractingly, lowering their accuracy. For a larger SP cost, she can create a shocker swarm, which upon closing with the foe discharge their electrical charge in a series of small lightning bolts which can deal a hearty amount of damage if they all manage to go off, while also draining some stamina from the foe as well.
• Vault Breaker (Vi): Rika can now charge her gauntlets with mana, which she can then use to unleash a punch that flings her forwards at breakneck speed, smashing foes that she collides with aside or even straight up into the air. The charge can be held for a maximum of 4 seconds, the first 1.25 of which increase the range, strength and speed of the punch. If the maximum time is eclipsed, the mana is forcibly vented to prevent damage to the gauntlet.
• Denting Blows(Vi): If Rika can land a series of 3 punches (vault breakers included) on a target within 4 seconds of each other, the third blow will be empowered. This third blow deals extra damage equivalent to 15% of the enemies max hp (though there is a hard cap of 3 punches worth of extra damage, and armor/defense still reduces the damage), as well as increasing her attack speed by 60% and reducing enemy armor by 20% (both for 4 seconds). The effects do not stack, but can have their durations refreshed, and the third blow procs her Hexed-teched weakness, disabling the fist that deals the third blow for 2 seconds.
• I Will Not Yield (L'Indomptable): boosting evasive abilities by 15% and giving the host a last stand that activates when she would otherwise be destroyed, preventing death for 2.5 seconds and granting a random buff to either ranged firepower, deployed explosives, accuracy, or reload time.
• Vichya's Black Lance and Shield (L'Indomptable): Rika can instantly transform Captain Ahab (the Pacific Princess’s halberd), into L'Indomptable’s armaments, a levitating lance and shield combo which work incredibly effectively on the charge, but are a lot less nimble than the thin halberd they replace. The lance increases a struck target’s vulnerability to Rika’s ranged attacks by 15%, while the shield has a rack of 3 torpedoes it can launch over the top of itself and a 20 mm flak cannon on the front.

Skills:

• Arm Cannons: Rika has a set of massive gun gauntlets strapped to her arms. Despite their weight and her less than muscular arms she can still hold them up thanks to antigravity modules built into them and powered via cables attached to her back (she also uses these to help walk on land and get some floaty jumps too). One houses a 8inch Triple Gun and the other a 6inch Twin Rapid Fire Gun. They also have impressive ammo stores that defy their conventional size. As these are functionally part of her, they can be modified by fusions.
• Ship Girl Physiology: Rika can glide across, or rather just above, liquid surfaces, able to hover to and fro via just her will. She also has the inhuman vitality and resilience needed to be able to take at least a few hits from ship girl grade weapons.
• Military Subordinate: Rika was a more or less unthinking soldier as part of the abyssal fleet and while she is her own person now, she still has the instincts from back then. Rika is a decent enough fighter at even just an instinctual level, and has a knack for following orders and plans swiftly and efficiently.
• Stronger Together(Maw): The experience within the Maw has brought her closer together both with those that shared the experience with her. She gains increased confidence and constitution when in close proximity to other survivors of the Maw, knowing that they can trust their backs to be watched, and going the extra mile to make sure they can do the same.
• Famine(Maw): While hungry, gain speed boost and stamina regain that ramp up the hungrier you are
• Kai Flagship Upgrades: Rika gains a full suit of upgrades to push her ship class to its full potential, increasing her armor and vitality a fair margin but mainly massively raising her evasion, the ship girl becoming quite the artful dodger.
• Brute Strength (Brachydios): Despite being built with a pair of massive gauntlets, Rika was not designed for close combat. This little number fixes that problem by imbuing her with Wyvernian strength and battle prowess of the mighty Brachydios, making her quite the slugger.
• Lancefaire (Rider and Beast): imparts skill with polearms and a slight damage increase while using them.
• Bullet Jump (Titania Prime): substantially boosts the host's movement abilities The host can launch into a quick slide, double jump, aim glide, wall run, wall climb, and high jump.
• Shark Weapon(Aileen): giving the host's main aquatic summon the power to launch a volley three bombs through the air, which fly in an arc.
• Land Pirate (Aileen): the user’s aquatic summons can treat solid ground like water, allowing them to swim through it, though this does not affect it otherwise, and so they are, for example, functionally blind while inside of it. The material also still has to bear their weight/force, meaning weak/unstable surfaces might collapse if an attempt to swim up/through them is made.

Smelter Skills:

• Kindred of Rot's Exultation: Raises attack power when poisoning or rot occurs in the vicinity. "Rot for the scarlet goddess. O scarlet blossoms, flourish in distant lands, and return to us, the unwanted children"
• Pest’s Glaive Slightly increases non-physical damage negation. Though men might recognize the keen intellect of the pests evidenced by this spear's uncanny design, it will never be understood by them
• Dated Sunglasses: a pair of dark sunglasses reminiscent of those from a certain fill series. When the wear dodges these produce an invisible field 5ft around the user, which slows hostile projectiles by 30%, making it easier to avoid getting shot.
• Prisoner in Deep Confinement(set): Increases HP, DEF, ATK, and SPD by equivalent amounts, increase ATK by a furthur 12%, In addition, for every DoT (up to 3) the target enemy is afflicted with, the wearer will ignore 6% of its DEF when damaging it. DoTs include poison, bleed, burn, etc.
• Krull's Amulet: A spiky metal fishhook. Provides a small buff to attack and hp. If equipped with Krull's weapon and armor, they will provide a set effect that boosts hp by 30%

Weaknesses:

• Born yesterday: Rika has only been an actual person for a handful of days and is as a result currently going through a crash course on how to be a person. Her main mentors being the self declared bad guys of the Koopa Troop is probably skewing her perspectives and priorities quite a bit too. Very susceptible to being tricked and outmaneuvered in social situations.
• Beached: Rika is a ship in the shape of a girl, and was not built to be on land. She is relying on the antigravity in her gauntlet’s to keep herself upright while on land, and those failing will massively cripple her maneuverability.
• Aqua Bane(Brachydios): giving her a mild weakness to water-based or aspected weapons and attacks plus a more severe one to ice
• Little Sister(Mikuma): making her more susceptible to intimidation and mental attacks.
• No Surrender(Pacific Princess): Rika is unwilling to accept defeat
• Supernatural separation anxiety (Maw): If unity is strength then separation is weakness and the Maw has taught that weakness will not be tolerated. Those with this curse will become overly worried if another of their number is not in the company of at least one other curse bearer, and especially worried if they go off on their own, which tends to cause reckless rushes to their aid.
• Headshot (Nameless Spartan Deserter): which means that once her shields are broken, a single shot to her helmet from any precision weapon is fatal
• Axebane (rider and beast), increasing the amount of damage taken by axes by 50%
• Bright light(Dark Magic Lampyre): which prevents the user from disabling the glowing orb on the back of their rigging, making sneaking very difficult, and drawing additional attention to them in and out of combat.
• Hexed-tech (Vi): Rika’s gauntlets really weren't designed to work with mana, and the overlapping energy systems unfortunately interfere with each other. If a gauntlet is used to perform a mana expending ability, it (and anything installed on it) will subsequently shut down for two seconds as the technology recovers from having magic run through it.
• Pixieweight(Titania Prime), decreasing the host's effective weight, strength, and durability by 15%
• Short (L'Indomptable): making it harder to climb things, reach things, see long distances, and be respected by taller people--and of course, if someone jokes about her height, she will become Enraged
• Nonoptimal Range (Aileen): decreasing combat effectiveness (Accuracy, damage, and attack speed down by 10%) at short range

Spirit list:

Active strikers

• Maria A dark knight wielding a blood-red twinblade. She can appear to swing twice with her swordblades, incurring just a 10s cooldown. She can also be summoned to perform a counter, using an empowered version of her basic attack when struck, though a 15s cooldown is incurred whether or not she's hit. Finally, she can perform Blood Rain over the course of two summons; the first one empowers her (10s), and the second performs a bloody slam that heals the host for all damage inflicted (40s)
• Vespikan Ichor Queen: A towering wasp woman adorned in crimson robes and with red ribbons trailing from her antenna, armed with a single colossal clever blade who can be summoned (on a long cooldown) for a few second to either attack with her cleaver and venomous stinger, or to cast one of the one of a number of spells:
  
  Lightning Bolt: the queen channels electricity into her blade for a moment before thrusting it forwards, shooting out a powerful lighting bolt that can do heavy damage to a single target
  
  Pull from the grave: the queen kneels in prayer to her dark god for a moment before stabbing the ground with her sword. This causes a 5 meter patch of ground within 25 meters to manifest a flurry of earthen hands, which attempt to grab and drag any undead beings they can find back into the earth where they belong. Has no effect on any other kind of being or entity.
  
  Draining touch: the queen reaches out and touches the body of a target with her hand, and in so doing begins to drain a mundane human’s worth of vitality from them over the duration of the cast time, transferring it to her summoner.
  
  All of these spells take 2 seconds of channeling before they are cast. If the summoner is harmed (either directly or via feedback) the queen enters into a berserker rage, interrupting any spellcasting she was attempting to do as she blindly charges the culprit and tries to deliver a singular devastating cleaver strike to them, regardless of the desires of her summoner, or the feasibility of her reaching her target before her timer expires
  
  Inactive Strikers
• Cloyster The Bivalve Pokemon. It has pretty good physical defense and decent physical attack, but unimpressive stats otherwise. Its moves are Icicle Spear, a short range 5 shot burst damaging ice-type move, Whirlpool, which creates a water hazard in an area for a little while, Protect, a potent block that can't be used in quick succession, and Razor Shell, a mostly dependable damaging water-type move. Medium cooldown
• War Cleric An axe-wielding priestess with a medium cooldown, able to be summoned for up to two seconds at a time to perform a single action. The actions she can perform are a quick advancing chop, a slow overhead slam, and Heal, which restores 25% hp
• Knight An heavily armored knight with a claymore a medium cooldown, able to be summoned for up to two seconds at a time to perform a single action. The actions he can perform are an armored sword thrust, a slow overhead slam, an advancing shield bash, and block

  moves [+]

  -Bite (beast, heals 50% of damage done thanks to carnivore )
  -Carnivore (increased the heal of Bite from 25% to 50%)
  -Pustule Bomb (Poison, spray of purple globules that cause poison for 30 sec)
  -Sharpen (raise own melee attack for 30 sec)
  -Mountain Smash (earth, a strike with horns that lowers melee defense for 30 sec)
  -Burrow (earth, burrows under ground become immune to most attacks, but needs to emerge partialy or fully to attack)
• Poison Card - When applies to a weapon, allows the weapon to build up and then inflict poison on struck targets. Applied to her rifle, causing it's bullets and bayonet to inflict a stacking poison dot.
• Fancy sundress: exactly what it says on the tin. No special properties other than being cute.
• Grizzco Blaster: A gun that fires short fuse slime explosions at a respectable fire rate of 60 rpm. It is powered by a combination of an electric goop swooping stu in the rear tank, saliva in one of the jars up top, and Brachydios slime from one of Rika's horns. The three other canisters contain ink from Bowser Junior's magic paintbrush, that can give it fire, electric, or poison type damage. The whole thing has been built into Rika's left hadn gauntlt, replacing the 8 inch gun found therein.
• Red Baron & Ace: 'Ace' is a pair of augmented boxing gloves, with blades attached. 'Red Baron' is a set of six red orbital machines that can join together into a pylon for carrying or storage. Once activated by Ace, Red Baron's segments can be controlled to fly around using their rockets, acting as airborne blades. Their high potential power is offset by the difficulty of controlling them. Integrated into Rika’s gauntlets.
• universal ammo box x3: can be used once to fill out any gun's ammo reserves (so a few magazines, shells, rockets, granades etc. basically whatever amount a person could/would reasonably carry)
• MauldroneA somewhat intelligent insect the size of a dinner plate, rather heavy and quite durable. Balanced between speed and attack, it deals blunt damage by ramming into its targets on the wing. However, the only way to communicate with it or get it to do something is via light or chemical signals; it does not understand intention or speech
• Featherfall Rune Can be squeezed to launch high up into the air, then slowly descend down for a duration. Squeezing it during the descent cancels it
• Agastya Alternate Costume An Alternate Costume that can fit anyone who puts it on, encasing them in a fine suit of black armor with pale gold trim and a collar of burgundy feathers, leaving only the head exposed
• Fan of Knives A weapon mod (instaled on her left gauntlet) forged from the silver fragment left behind by Tian the Assassin, the bloodstained blade of the ratlike Urikki race. Charged by dealing damage in battle, it can be unleashed to manifest and throw a fan of seven knives that cause Bleeding
• High-quality Bandages x2 Useful for stopping Bleeding and temporarily increasing Bleed resistance
• Treats: assorted goodies for the sweet toothed ship girl
• golden spinner: a device that is very effective at capturing and taming monsters, and works exactly like a pokeball. Curently holds a white whale.

Origin: Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

Appearance:Midna now stands at 1.7 meters tall, has a lean and toned physique of an agile warrior and her skin is the hue of a late sunset, topaz shades graying as night sets in, body closer to night, face closer to day. She is entirely humanoid, save for a long draconic tail coming out of a port at the rear of her armor, which has pale green scales, ridged with short golden spines and tipped with flygon tail fans.

Her hair is still done up in a ponytail, but is now a veritable mass of hair going down to the small of her back, and is a smoky orange filled with Norah’s blue jewels like stars. Her chin has become strikingly pointed, her eyes a dark orange, lips painted soft green, and her ears are now smooth and pointed like an elf’s. Each ear is adorned with three golden loops, smaller versions Urbosa’s, along their length, as well as having a golden ‘sheath’ over the tips like Ariel.

The twin crests on her helm now slope backwards, melding with a pair of gold-black dragon horns sprouting from her forehead. The pair of worm-like engraving on its front have become a pair of long bodied dragons, rear claws gripping the horns while the front pair grip a red eye like jewel on the forehead over which they seem to be battling. The psycho mask is permanently attached to the front of the helm, and turned into the snarling red face of Murasame, while Shemira’s eye mask covers both eyes and the top of the face.

Her shoulders bear a pair of large pauldrons, gold rimmed ‘scales’ filled with red, which match the similarly striking red and gold chest plate that covers her from shoulder to waist, that is relatively thin and form fitting. A black sleeveless jacket, open at the front and with a popped collar, is wrapped over the back of this armor. A round core of magic hums at the center of the chest, lighting crackling out of it and dancing across the metal, suffusing all her armor in electricity.

Her two sets of arms emerge from the sides of this armor like Orendi’s do and are clad in thin black, fingerless, elbow length gloves. Akira Howard’s cuffs and astral chain adorn her (real) wrists, but are of a golden metal, and are much slimmer and compact, closer to Ariel’s stylish wrist guards than bulky handcuffs

A black dress rests on her waist below the armor, trailing down to just above knee height at the front, just below it at the back, while leaving the thighs exposed. On her legs she wears a set of sturdy black thigh length heeled boots done up with cross stitching, which have golden metal caps on their toes who’s metal runs around the edges of her feet and down underneath as well. Both heel and toe tips are mechanically articulated, causing the boot to be flexible rather than rigid. This, combined with a set of dragon energy claws permanently extending from the toes and heel, allow the heels to enhance rather than restrict her mobility.

Her magic, dragon energy, lightning and astral chain have all now harmonized to have a black core inscribed with green twilight runes, all encased in a similarly green aura, in the same manner as her twilight volley bombs. Her shadow hands continue to match the hue of her hair however.

Personality: Midna is not exactly a picture of princessly grace and virtue, as she can be manipulative, mocking, selfish, vengeful and violent to get her way, as well as being impulsive, unpredictable, and prone to colorful expressions thanks to Orendi. However, she also takes the responsibility of her royal title to heart, having a deep concern for the well-being of her people, one which she has learned to apply to others beyond her kingdom. Ariel and Urbosa’s influence have added a warrior’s spirit and deepened her sense of nobility to this protectiveness, though her tendency to tease, joke and taunt can sometimes make her seem more rogue than royal knight.

Shemira has made her more willing to help selflessly as well, while the undead woman’s pessimism is suppressed by Ariel’s belief in a better world, because though Galeem’s may be cruel and unfair, the only thing to be done is fight against fate. Part of that also comes from a belief in the divine, that there other great powers out there, that need only be freed from Galeem’s grasp such that they might be able to aid in undoing the damage it has done.

She has also inherited Norah’s muse, if not her talents, and finding musical inspiration coming to her at unexpected times, which when combined with Orendi results in sometimes humming or whistling tunes, or even more rarely, singing them.

Background: Midna was once the princess of twilight, heir to the throne and future ruler of the Twili, a race of beings who lived in a shadow realm their sorcerer ancestors had been banished to from the light world of Hyrule. Upon the death of the previous ruler Midna was chosen to succeed them, but was soon overthrown by one of the failed claimants to the throne, Zant. Using powers gained from his new “god” he conquered the twilight realm, transformed its people into monsters and cursed Midna with an impish form before banishing her from the realm. Rather than sink into obscurity or die in disgrace however, Midna aimed to rebuild the Fused shadow, an ancient artifact of shadow magic, and use it to reclaim her throne.

She recruited the aid of Link, who had been transformed into a wolf, a sacred beast of her people, and together they embarked on a quest to first reassemble the fused shadow, and then, once its pieces were stolen from them by Zant and Minda is almost killed, the rebuilt the Mirror of Twilight which they would use to take the fight to Zant in the twilight realm.

Together they overcame first Zant, and then (with the aid of princess Zelda) Gandorf, who, as he is want to do, had revealed himself to be the man behind the man of Zant’s usurpation. Midna died in the process of defeating the villain, but was revived by the light spirits into her true form. She then returns to her home to claim her throne, but as she does so she destroys the twilight mirror to prevent the two antithetical realms from ever coming into conflict again

Then some crazy yarander called Cia tares time and space apart because of their crush on Link, re-implifying midna, reviving Zant and chucking her out of her kingdom again. After a brief misunderstanding she teams up with the Hylians to successfully regain her kingdom, beat Cia and then return to her own time, only to come back to Linkle’s time for a final battle against Ganon who pulled another true final boss maneuver and before finally returning to her kingdom for the third time. She did not get her true form back this time however. She was just getting into the swing of being the imp sized queen of an entire dimension when reality got torn apart for a second time and she ended up being dumped in Smash City.

In the now Midna was one of the many heroes who had resided in "Smash City" Alcamoth taking part in the fighting tournaments there. When freed by the Seeker’s slaying of the ender dragon, she joined their quest, traveling east into the desert.

Within it she slew Urbosa for her crime of being unwillingly partnered up with a shadow of Ganondorf, something she would later come to regret despite having built much of her current fighting style around that spirit's power. Beyond that she traveled north, losing and gaining friends and allies, till she ascended the split mountain and slew its guardian.

She then traveled to twilight town, learned to drive, was part of the seekers meet and greet, before traveling to Midgar, where her portal placement ability proved vital for swift navigation around the city, and their eventual dive into its heart to slay its guardian. Having left the city without power by accident, those seekers escaped the city, only to be chased by a consul and be saved by the Lost numbers, who they then joined. After that, they regrouped with the rest of the seekers in carnival town, where she learned the other team had recruited Gandorf of all people.

She swallowed her pride and agreed to work with him, but will never turn her back to the man as long as she lives.

Job: Armored Cavalry
Specialty: Midna has a variety of mounts and minions at her disposal, as well as martial and martial prowess, letting her get in fast and hit hard
Midna: level 9 EXP: //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// (132/100) (+1 bonus pending)

Abilities:

• Summon Wolf Mount: Midna can summon up to one of threeTwilight Wolfos, a wolf-like creatures which are definitely not a retextured Wolf Link with an added head decorations. These Wolfos are summoned from the twilight realm via a small portal when Midna is in need of a mount, and can be sent back there just as easily. Fast, agile and armed with sharp fangs and claws, the Wolfos makes an excellent mount for the diminutive Midna. Each of the three is a unique and living being, and thus they are all capable both of absorbing spirits and being killed outright.
  
  Call of the pack allows her to shift the size of her mount to suit nay size changes she herself incurse from Spirit absorption or other sources.
  
  Current Wolfos status: [+]

  twilitght Flygon [+]

  This wolfos has now evolved into a flygon, crossed with a saboquill. The disk on its head has fused with its chitin, giving it a dark metallic crest, one with the wider fronds of the Saboquill. Its green hues are much darker, and the reds on its wings and eye protectors have turned teal. Its arms are more akin to the Saboquill, with wide spiked shoulders (which sport circular teal twilight markings) and larger claws. Its thighs are similarly spiked, and its feet have gained small clawed toes. Its fan-like tail tip sports a metal band/shackle at its base, has been filled with a darker red and has gained several more segments, making it look like a 2d dragon fruit.

  Ground/Dragon type weaknesses: quad damage from ice, double from dragon and fairy
  
  Plant Property: increasing the host’s fire weakness to 4x

  
  
  

  Twilight wolf-cycle [+]

  Appearance:
  This wolfos has become considerably more draconic in shape akin to that of Maridon, with a longer serpent like neck with a glowing throat pouch, and thicker, sturdier hind legs that sport a wider stance. It has also become more mechanical, with the nest of black ‘hair’ turning into metal cables that extrude to where the forehead plate, which itself is now fused to the flesh rather than floating above it, and its eyes are now those of Maridon. Its snout is wider and bulkier, its lower jaw is metal rather than flesh like the rampaging cyborg and its gullet is distinctly cannon shaped.
  
  Its back sports a metal plate shaped like a motorcycle seat, while a second around the base of the neck provides 2 extensions that can be used as handlebars, as well as sporting a hatch in between them that can be used to load ammunition. Its tail is medium length and made up of the same energy filled tubing of its throat.
  
  Its legs are the most drastically cybernetisised, coated from head top to bottom in Maridon blue metal, and sporting several jet thrusters. The front ones are akin to Khan’s with their attachment to the legs and blade like wings, only they stick out a 45 degree angle out and away so as to not simply burn it’s rear legs or it’s rider, while the rear ones are akin to Maridon’s with two Kahn ones attached on the outside acting like auxiliary thrusters. Each ankle has an extension holding a hubcap of a wheel on it, and when brought together with its twin on the opposite leg, it will cause maridon’s tyre to form between them, transforming the beast into a motorcycle. Finally its feet now consist mostly of three large razor sharp claws.
  
  Powers
  Metal Wolf Chaos(rampaging cyborg):: granting a cannon on its back. The cannon can fire projectiles loaded into it at high enough speed to explode on impact. If not manually loaded with actual ammunition, it will extract a chunk of the host's flesh at the cost of HP to use instead
  
  Thunder(Maridon): which drops a shower of 6 thunderbolts in an moderate area. Each one deals appreciable damage, but they have low individual AoE and fall randomly, so smaller targets can evade them.
  
  Point-blank Shot(Khan): a high-damage, low-range, single-target projectile condensed from the host's primary element. If it's a critical hit, it's even stronger than a normal crit.
  
  Weaknesses:
  
  Powered (rampaging cyborg): If not powered by an energy cell, the host's cyborg parts remain inert, rendering the gun unusable and lowering its movement speed
  
  Bog Standard(Maridon): decreasing the power of standard/normal attacks (such as biting) by 30%
  
  All-out Attacker(Khan): decreasing defense and resistance by 15%

  
  
  

  A regular Wolfos [+]

  Equipment
  
  Spit: A sticker that, when applied, allows the user to spit damaging projectiles that fly in a slow arc. They deal damage of whatever single element most closely matches the wearer (in this case shadow/dark)
  
  Deegahla Hide Scale Mail: a set of light, durable armor, that also has a saddle with stirrups to help Midna fight from it's back, as well as two holsters for pistols, and saddle bags modified so it is easier for Midna to open portals in them.
  
  Disposable Missile Launcher (strapped to the back of the armor): a cardboard assembly that can be used to fire a swarm of 12 homing missiles every 45 seconds.
• Dark energy zone: Midna projects a growing ring of dark energy around herself and her mount. This ring starts out small but gradually grows to a significant radius. Once activated Midna makes the power held in the ring lash out at enemies within its dark interior, stunning them with an electrical attack and allow her mount to quickly lunge between all targets stunned by the field
• Call the pack: Midna can temporarily summon her other two wolfos into combat at the same time as the one she is using as a mount. The summoning window is brief, a few seconds at best, making it optimal to use them as part of attacks that act as permanent troops. The wolves can pinwheel like spinning blades, spin dash like drills and even run circles to create vortexes that draw foes in or keep them in place, as well as use any other abilities they might pick up.
  
  They wolfos can also be larger than the one being used as a mount, though whether this is indicative of their true size or a magical buff is unclear. Whichever is the case, the hulking beasts can be devastating to groups of enemies, careening through them before vanishing back to the twilight realm only to reaper from another angle a number of seconds later.
  
  Passively, this power also lets Midna adjust the size of the wolfos she is riding to suit any shifts in size or proportions she herself experiences.
• Dragon Type (flygon): Midna has the capability to learn all Dragon-type moves a Flygon can, as well as the starting moves Dragon Claw and Dragon Dance.
• Siren Sands (Flygon): Midna gains sand manipulation abilities that give her the equivalents of the following moves:
  Sand Attack: Sprays the target with sand, irritating their eyes and reducing their accuracy
  Sand Tomb: Creates a localized sandstorm around the target. Does not do a lot of initial damage, but remains active for ten to twenty second, slowly sapping the target’s strength and bogging them down, preventing them from escaping.
  Sand Storm: Whips up a large sandstorm that indiscriminately buffets everyone inside it.
  
  Sand based attacks cannot use naturally occurring sand and instead Midna has to dump sand into the environment from the realm of Twilight. Other than its color this black and silvery sand is mostly normal, except for the fact that it wordlessly “sings” as it flies through the air. Bringing more sand out takes more time: Sand attacks can be hurled out at once straight from a small portal, each sand tomb needs its own brief prep time and a sand storm needs an almighty amount of twilight sand dumped into the environment in-order to be pulled off. Already dumped sand is, of course, reusable, allowing the combining of sand attacks into sand tombs, and then sand tombs into a full blown storm if the princess focuses on using this ability in a fight.
• Thunder Blade (Urbosa): Midna can store up to four ‘bars’ of electrical energy in a metal weapon, and then use it to unleash short ranged electrical attacks when swinging that blade. Abilities include shooting a tight beam of lightning, firing out a short ranged but wide thunderbolt, having 3 bolts hammer a small area around a blow, create a vortex of 3 swirling lightning steams, launch an electrical sword beam and so on. (basically everything from the combos section of this video except the last massive 2 combo’s massive aoe lightning.
  
  Using lightning uses charge, which can be regained by charging, which involves holding the weapon close to her body to fill it with lightning once more. Charging generally refills one ‘bar’ per second, but starting to charge right after an attack can steal back some of the used power and charge one bar instantaneously.
  
  Simply hammering on foes with the sword will also build static electricity, but this takes a fair bit longer than stepping back and charging it would.
  
  Midna’s lightning is a limey twilight green, and she and her mounts are naturally resistant to it, or at least enough to prevent themselves from being fried by being so close to the blast zone, but not enough to protect them if they are literally in said blast zone.
• Twilight warp: Midna can set down gateways (at her own location) that allow her to fast travel between them by skimming along the boundary of the twilight realm. This hop does not go deep enough to expose the traveler to the mutating energies of the twilight realm, and so it can be used to safely transport light-worlders as well as the princess herself. The creation of each gate requires a charge. She begins with 3, and gains one more each time she gains combat exp.
• Twilight volleybomb: Midna can charge up large translucent-green spheres of energy from her shadow hand, the maximum size which can be quite astounding which she can then ‘serve’ and then ‘spike’ at her foes. Most of the sphere can phase harmlessly through solid matter except a solid core. When that core impacts with something, it creates an explosion the same size as the sphere, which can, again, be very large.
  
  There are a couple of downsides. First off, charging to max size takes a few seconds, is incredibly obvious when being done, and has a lot of friendly fire potential due to the size of the explosion. The ball also has a kind of weight, causing larger balls to travel slower, resulting in lower ranges. Finally, the volleyballing attack method is not proclivity to the greatest accuracy or attack speed, also limiting the effectiveness of smaller balls.
• Twilight Darknut: Midna adds a reanimated Darknut to her roster of creatures she can summon from the twilight realm. As with the other’s it is its own entity (one cobbled together from spare Midna discovered in the equivalent of a dusty broom closet in her twilight storage room, having used a few of these as captains of her short lived personal army during the time war) capable of both death and fusion.
  
  The darknut itself is a towering figure, close to twice as tall as the average human, and clad in thick metal armor. It is also equipped with a large round shield that it is highly capable at blocking blows with. Combine these defenses with its undead nature, and it is safe to say that Twilight Darknut is an incredibly resilient combatant, at least when it comes to physical damage.
  
  Its main weakness is a very slow movement speed, the armored warrior able to at best advance at a walking pace, although its turn speed is comparatively nothing to be sniffed at. High caliber weapons, electricity, heat, and other types of attack that counter heavy metal armor are also natural counters to the towering knight, as are holy, light and other undead killing damage types.
  
  Offensively, it is armed with a hulking broadsword and a lighter longsword as a back up, which it wields with impressive skill and speed despite its armor. It can be equipped with other weaponry, though it’s proficiency with new gear is related to how closely it matches the starting gear.
  
  
  modifications [+]

  Roadblock
  The host is now a hulking seven-foot titan of yellow and black metal, futuristic in make and fantastical in style. Nigh impervious to slashing, and resistant to practically anything else, it is an immovable object on the battlefield that foes are forced to play around, although its slow speed and short range make it somewhat one-note. This spirit confers the Power Obstacle, allowing it to project a large rectangular energy barrier from the shield on its left arm. Allies can move and shoot through it, but enemies cannot do either, and it can take some serious punishment. This spirit also confers the Weakness Mighty Glacier, making the Darknut unable to jump or run
• Crescent Moon(Mursame): This special sword slash allows Midna to near-instantly draw and strike with a bladed weapon and taunts the enemies it hits, making them more likely to target the host.
• Mass-produced Legionis (Clone of Akira Howard), which allows her to use a legatus to summon a bound Beast Legion from its core, connected to her by an astral chain. She can also now see chimeric entities clearly. The Beast Legion is an agile close-range fighter and can be ridden or used to track scents. It cannot be seen or attacked by most enemies. The astral chain can be used to send it out, pull it back, pull the host over to the legion, or bind enemies by encircling them. The Legion can also be modified with spirits.
• Cyclone Kick(Ariel): a powerful high thrust kick that unleashes a bright green magical tornado to deal heavy wind impact damage in an upside-down cone, with a 160% chance to stun for 5 seconds. This ability must be charged by landing wind-type attacks, and after a target is stunned, it gains stun resistance for several minutes.
• Tortured Souls (Shemira): making the host able to summon souls of the dead (who look like Poes) that spiral around her (with a radius of a couple of meters) to deal continuous damage over 12s, with 50% of their damage returning to the host as health. Tortured Souls constantly drains mana while active.
• Rainbow Rondo (Norah): By strumming a stringed instrument, the host can bestow a boon upon nearby allies that lasts 20s. Whenever such an ally takes a hit, even if it deals no damage, the host has a 1/3 chance to perform a musical counterattack, dropping three magical notes on the attacker.
• Storm Sands (Flygon/Urbosa): Midna can cause the grains of her sand attacks to swirl such a way that they generate static electricity. This gives her basic sand attacks an extra sting, causes sand tombs to apply the paralyze effect (slowing movement and potentially interrupting 1/4 of actions) while swirling around a foe, and turns sandstorms into thunderstorms that periodically blast anything within them (that is not immune to electrical damage) with bolts of lighting.

Skills:

• Twilight Princess: Midna has regal authority over the denizens and beasts of her realm such as other Twili and Shadow Woflos. She also has the ability to claim command over beasts or beings corrupted by that realm, like the twilight Kargarok, and some affinity for other creatures of shadow not from her universe/dimension.
• Basic Shadow Magic: Midna can float in the air, hide in shadows and teleport short distances. None of these abilities are fast enough to be used for dodging anything but the slowest of attacks but they can be useful for hiding, bypassing obstacles or basic locomotion.
• Monstrous Cavalry: Midna has a talent for mounted combat using unusual steeds such as Wolfos and Kargarok. She can easily command her strange steed and fight at the same time and is able to adapt to new mounts with relative ease.
• Champion Mindset(Urbosa): increasing Midna's natural authority and charisma and giving her a complete affinity for the Divine Beast Vah Naboris.
• Champion Moveset (Urbosa): Midna can draw on the spirit of the Grudo champion’s martial talent, a flowing melding of might and magic that gives the princess increased skill and versatility when it comes to melee combat. It also gives her proficiency with various melee weapons, most notably the Urbosa favored armaments, the ever-reliable combo of the sword and shield.
• Skirmisher Style(Orendi), increasing Midna’s agility and acrobatic sense to allow her to better avoid damage through mobility without having to rely on flight or hiding in shadows.
• Earth Dragon Resistances (flygon): Gain the flygon's typing's resistance, resulting an in immunity to electric type damage and effects, as well as a 50% resistance to poison, fire and rock type moves

Weaknesses:

• Imp Body: Midna’s imp body isn’t exactly the hardiest of forms, nor is it the strongest. Finding suitably scaled armor or weapons is also difficult. after fusing with Urbosa she is now somewhat larger and notably more muscular, reducing this weakness somewhat.
• Light Based Attacks: While mere sunlight is no longer enough to damage her, as a Twili Midna still has a weakness to light based weapons or attacks (lasers, light magic, etc.). On top of this bright light is uncomfortable for her to bear and she is more vulnerable to being blinded/stunned by flashes or high intensities of light.
• Fated End(Urbosa): Suffers heavy stress when facing either electric enemies or enemies wielding a sword and shield, and near-paralysis if facing an enemy with both
• Dragon Weakness(flygon): Midna takes more damage from both dragon-aspected and anti-dragon attacks and weapons, as well as Fairy-type Pokemon moves and ice
• IWHBYD(Orendi):: making her much more likely to compulsively spout off whatever comes to mind, even in combat or potentially awkward social situations
• Can't Fly (Mursame): making the host unable to fly under her own power
• Born for One Thing Only (Clone of Akira Howard): disables all of the host's Strikers and spitting out their spirits, as well as preventing the gaining of new ones
• Critical Fire Bane (Shemira): resulting in 50% extra damage from fire-aspected attacks
• Auto Battler (Ariel): more likely to zone out and fight without thinking in battles that don't interest her
• Hard of Hearing (Norah): making the host's hearing worse

Inventory:

Money:

4100 Zenny

Fused Shadow (1/4th) Worn by Midna as a helmet this physical manifestation of Shadow magic gives Midna the ability to transform her ponytail into a large prehensile limb tipped with a large hand. This hand has immense strength, capable of smashing foes aside, grabbing and hurling people or things and wielding large weapons. The force of blows or weight of lifting is not applied back to Midna, which is convenient as otherwise usage of this artifact would likely break her neck. The fully completed artifact is many times more powerful than its component parts. Despite its appearance it does not damage her depth perception.

Spaulders of the Bat - A pair of shoulder guards that bind to the wearer when equipped, meaning they will be destroyed if discarded or given to someone else. They provide extra physical protection and incremental increases to intellect, stamina, and haste (casting / attack speed). With the Andrew Oikonny sticker applied, the wearer is also a little more launch resistant, flying back a shorter distance when launched. With the Maglev mod equipped, the wearer's slide speed is boosted by a notable 30%, but with 30% less friction she's also a bit slower/slipperier both to get started and to stop moving on all surfaces (no effect while airborne)

Breastplate of Valor Increases physical defense, maximum mana, and mana regeneration. Most importantly, reduces cooldowns by 20%

Mimic Tooth Necklace When worn, any chest the wearer attempts to open will be unlocked automatically if locked, and also be a mimic. The mimic deals more damage depending on the quality of what’s inside it and behaves as if whatever’s inside it is equipped.

Rosary: Rope knot made from the threads of habits of monks deceased in ancient times, crafted by Engracia to whom all other’s works paled to such an extent they were branded a heretical. Holds Beads that can grant boons to the wearer.
Beads:
Frozen Olive: Summer fruit trapped in an endless winter. Born from an olive tree turned into a prison, its frosted oils bolster the wearer's defenses (by 50%) when their strength is nearly exhausted (at 20% or less hp).
Piece of a Golden Mask
Piece of embossed gold, part of a mask broken years ago. The nuns of the Convent of the Charred Visage swear never to let the world see their burned faces, and the conviction of its old wearer has permeated the metal. A rosary bead that grants 25% protection against flames

Psycho Mask - a wearable statement of freedom--freedom from society, morality, and sanity, all in one. It has no actual effect on the wearer but features a built-in filter which can purify incoming air, and two ports that gas canisters can be plugged into

Biteturn Charm - a charm of human bone with a touch of the Stranger’s power. Whenever a bladed weapon strikes the holder it will take massive durability damage, enough to shatter conventional weapons. When this happens, however, one of the wearer’s teeth will turn black and fall out. The tooth cannot be regrown via healing.

Cursed Sword - a strange blade imbued with fell sorcery. It deals extreme damage when used as a weapon but is difficult to grasp and use effectively. While equipped, any damage taken by the user will result in an instant kill

X-Naut Uniform: An Alternate Costume that, when applied to a person, near-instantly clothes them in a perfectly tailored version of the comfy red and poofy white suit, gloves, shoes, and hood of the X-Nauts. Includes goggles. In addition to being comfortable and warm, it also pretty much completely masks the wearer’s identity

Sharpnened Volcano Fragment
Deals less damage than your average axe on hit, but will light the target on fire, causing the target to take damage over time until the flames are quenched or 7.5 seconds pass

Sun on a Stick
Deals less damage than your average bat on his, but will deal a critical hit to a burning target without putting the target out. Also grants 25% protection against flames while in hand

Clubba Club:A heavy weapon of solid metal. Its weight makes it a pain to use but a whole lot more pain for anyone it’s successfully used against. Just picking it up and dropping it is more practical than actually trying to swing it

Freindship bracelets: A simple metal bracelet sporting a heart shaped emblem made from a red stone. When worn the two ‘lobes’ each gain their own stylised icon representing the two people wearing the matched bands. When the bands are close together (so in the same general area sucha s a room, small building or garden) each half of the stones will glow softly, with the light intensifying the stronger the bond is between the two wearers.

At a base the band increases damage by 5% and movement speed by 6% even when the wearers are not around each other, but it can raise it by up to a maximum of 15/18% respectively for incredibly close friends. This the current owning pair most certainly are not, but they still gain a decent 7.5% damage and 9% movement speed boost, and could easily raise this to a pleasant 10%/12% by spending a bit more time with/around each other.

Comes with an instruction pamphlet that attempts to translate the glow intensity to various stages of friendship (from simple acquaintances all the way up through BFFs and Ace life partners) and effect efficiency, but fails to deliver the above information to the wearers particularly effectively.

The bracelet can also prevent the wearers from being forced to fight each other via various mind control or enrage effects, the effectiveness of this effect again being based on how close they are.

Mordant Dew: A whole vial of the nasty, toxic venom that Stingers inject into their victims. While underwhelming at first brush, it is actually a very valuably magical and alchemical opponent, as well as one of the requisite ingredients of the Grim Talisman, a charm that -when equipped- allows the user to build up his or her special resource with every landed attack

Charr Pirate Musket: A somewhat primitive, somewhat fantastical smoothbore rifle with less-than-spectacular accuracy and reload time, but boasts the property of infinite ammunition. in the form of metal slugs

Therian Viral Rifle: A long-barreled marksman carbine that utilizes compressed air to launch projectile syringes at high speed, long range, and high precision. The syringes can be loaded with a viral compound, which causes bothersome irritation on the skin around the infected point of biological targets, or a a hyper-restorative compound that circulates healing medicine throughout the bloodstream. A cumbersome reload process and the limited number of syringes limit its frequency of use

A boat load of survival rations of various kinds.

A now rather small amount of wooden crates stollen off the back of a truck (empty)

A cheap watch (which she got overchaged for)

A bottle of blood themed shampoo

Smoke Grenade x2: The J4-M35 Smoke Grenade has helped many soldiers out of dire situations. Simply throw the grenade wait for the smoke to spread and change firing positions when the enemy can’t see you

Treespear: Golden spear with tree-like design. Hits are infused with yellow lightning, their strength dependent on the wielder's Faith. Requiring superior dexterity to wield, this greatspear can perform consecutive thrust attacks despite its larger size.

Warthog: a light tactical ground vehicle fitted with a M41 Vulcan turret.

moterbikes x2: stolen, or rather confiscated, from deliquents in Gutsford.

Prometheus Torch type 1: A torch researched thoroughly to allow. a pyrokinesis psionic to unleash their full potential. Damages the taget with fire and bashing. Lakcing pyrokinetic ability, Midna uses this less refined and bulkier version of the torch purly for bashing

Power Cell: A cartridge loaded with electricity. Its built-in converters mean that it can be used to fully charge almost any device that runs on electric power

Orange Gel: A sweet medicinal jelly capable of providing 33% instant healing when eaten

Commando auto-pistol (x2): an auto pistol able to fire off 3 rounds a second, as well as firing a piercing phase round every 6 seconds. Unlimited ammo and no reloads necessary.

Shinra's Golden Gun: A very expensive-looking pistol with a black grip embossed by the logo of the Shinra Electric Power Company, and engraved golden body. It's only a golden veneer though, otherwise the weapon would be unusable. It's a small sidearm that fires 9mm rounds, just enough to kill the average person, but otherwise lacking stopping power. It has never seen expert maintenance, but then again, it's probably never been fired

Erendira‘s Gun-lance: a long lance that, along with being able to be used for stabbing, can also shoot small purple aura bolts, or swept to the side to launch a wide angle projectile. It must be charged by supernatural energy to use projectiles

Eliacube: A mysterious artifact. Under normal circumstances the cube is dark and closed, with a texture like jade, and it never opens. It seems to hold some sort of restorative ability, and it can hold a seemingly limitless amount of energy, but how -and perhaps why- it works is an enigma. It's rather interesting and gives off an important feeling. Probably warrants further study. Could it have some sort of psychic effect on those who own it? Or is it just a mirror, reflecting your own uncertain face back at you, and its magic is all in your head?

Ice Shield: A somewhat cumbersome medium shield, decorative and heavy. It nevertheless provides great defense, especially against ice, water, air, and slash attacks.

Ice Geode: Smithing material that's great for ice enchantments or making ice-themed weapons, though it'll take a master to put it to good use

Psi Stone of Dissonance: A crystalline pyramid that can be used to launch a conical energy wave that deals mental damage, applying high stagger. It takes a long time to recharge, however, and can only be used effectively once every five minutes. It darkens after use and starts glowing again when ready to blast

Serrated Knife: A large dagger most infamously wielded by General RAAM of the Locust Horde. Although it is a knife in the hands of RAAM, by human standards, it is a short sword.

Machete and Pistol: Two piratical weapons bound together. The machete is short and broad, dealing unremarkable slash damage while the pistol is a flintlock, with short range, high recoil, and deceptively big damage. However, the pistol is empty and does not accept ammunition. The only way to load it is by landing two subsequent hits with the machete. They share durability and upgrades.

Revolver: A renowned gunblade. What it lacks in power, it more than makes up for with its reliability. Despite its name, it cannot be used as an actual gun, meaning it does not fire projectiles, and can therefore only be used in melee combat. Triggering a round in the gun chamber sends a shock wave through the blade, increasing its damage potential, but the timing required is hard to learn, which is why it takes years to master wielding a gunblade.

Royal War Fan: A fan outfitted with blades and usable as a versatile dexterity weapon. Its attacks are supplemented with minor wind damage, which can also create gusts or small wellsprings, or allow it to be thrown like a sawblade

Daora Gem: An organic gemstone formed from gradual deposits of impurities deep within the bowels of a Kushala Daora elder dragon. Its glow is breathtaking, and it could be used to forge Daora weapons of highest quality

Dead End Express: A pair of huge, heavy mechanized clubs forged from the remains of Wartrain Gouon, six feet long and a thousand pounds apiece. Each miniature locomotive boasts eleven grinding sawblade wheels that spin at high speed. Though nigh-impossible to wield, they boast terrifying destructive power, and can even be straddled or otherwise ridden and used as a vehicle

lyre: a humble isntrument

Name: Grimm
Origin: Hollow Knight
Appearance: Though quite large for a bug, Grimm stands at a meager 4'10", and his pitch-black exoskeleton is extremely spindly. He is practically featureless save for his black horns and his glowing scarlet eyes, though a white heart-shaped mask gives him some semblance of a face. He wears a cloak of tough black grass, their undersides dyed red, over a simple cuirass composed of a polished dark red carapace
Personality: As the master of a traveling circus, Grimm has a flair for both mystery and theatrics, always seeking to awe and entertain. He is cunning and manipulative, with no sense of morality to speak of, but he is never needlessly violent or malicious, instead acting polite and respectful. Though seldom one to engage in conversation, and not really someone with a casual side, he sees the act of combat as a sort of dance through which individuals can truly communicate, and he delights in the cheers and admiration of the crowd
Background: Grimm, like all his troupe, was a thrall of the Nightmare Heart, a being born from the nightmare realm that exists as the shadow of his world's dream realm. He led his troop on a never-ending voyage across his world, showing up wherever the flames of the Nightmare Lantern are lit. There, while the members of the circus performed and entertained the locals, the Troupe's acolytes would enact a ritual to feed their eldritch master by stoking a Grimmchild with nightmare flames, nourishing it until Grimm could be born anew, and the cycle forever continued.
In the Now: Rumor have circulated through the Forbidden Kingdom, from backwater villages all the way up to the big cities, of a strange wandering troupe that arrives by night and vanishes by sunrise. Some see its arrival as an eerie portent of catastrophe, or cultists preying on hapless victims through acts of profane ritual, while others see it nothing more than a guaranteed night of dreamlike revelry. Its traveling performers, none of which are human, are all elusive as they are fascinating, and none more so than the troupe's master. Both excitement and tension mount as the Grimm Troupe's next destination becomes clear: the acropolis city of Meridi-at-han.

Job: Troupe Master
Specialty: Fiery spectacle, slippery movement, and a versatile mix of unrelenting attacks to keep guests guessing until the curtains fall
Inventory: Nothing

Lv: 1
EXP: 0/10
Abilities:

• Teleport - Grimm can vanish in a blast of red mist and reform a second later up to 20 feet away, with a cooldown of 2 seconds between uses. If used in the air, the blast ignites and rains down four fireballs
• Firebats - As long as he's on the ground, Grimm can open his clock to launch up to four scarlet firebats that poorly track targets. He can teleport once at any point in a salvo without interrupting it, and whenever he launches a firebat, a flare goes off from his eyes that blazes directly above him. However, he can only launch a firebat salvo once every ten seconds or so
• Hangtime - If Grimm so chooses, he can hang in the air, whether silent and motionless, or to launch physical attacks. His most notable technique that uses this ability is wrapping himself in his cloak in order to dive like a drill

Skills:

• Close Combatant - Grimm's claws and teeth both work very well as natural weapons, inflicting high slash and pierce damage, respectively. Combined with surprising speed, accuracy, and agility, he's dangerous up close, especially to targets with low defense
• The Night was Long - Despite his frail appearance, Grimm has plenty of health and is difficult to stagger, making any fight with him a battle of attrition that favors his style of confusion and methodical destruction

Weaknesses:

• The Nightmare Lantern - His existence is sustained by a brazier that burns with scarlet flame. If the Nightmare Lantern takes enough damage, it can be broken, and both Grimm and Troupe will be banished
• Gone to Pieces - Whenever he loses a third of his health, up to three times per fight, he will explode into a swarm of bugbats, one of which glows with scarlet flame. In this form he can't use any abilities or defend himself, just flit around in a panic for a couple seconds, allowing attackers a chance to rack up free damage until the bugbats coalesce back into Grimm
• Unarmed and Dangerous - Grimm has no proficiency with weapons or armor and won't use them

Rapport:

Origin: Age of wonders 3

Appearance: Edward is a middle aged human with brown hair, sandy skin and a chiseled complexion that is all angles.
He wears the armor of a commonwealth Dreadnought: dark gray armored plate mail with epaulet adored shoulder pads, a red sash, and red pantaloons.
His steed is a brown stallion adorned in a red cloud and gray metal horse armor that menaces with spikes.

Personality:
A resourceful, honest, and a highly trained and distinguished military commander. Once a bit of a stickler to the rules, and still very much able to quote them, and blind to the excesses of his nation due to believing firmly in what it stood for, Edward has long since put that aside in the name of living up to the egalitarian spirit of its ideals and doing what is right. Even now when the Commonwealth is dead and buried. Perhaps more so. Especially after a stint of horrors beyond the void madness caused him, for a time, to twist those principles into an engine of brutal and bloody conquest.

He is generally well spoken, be it delivering orders or rousing speeches, as well as fairly personable when the time allows. He also has nerves of steel, and is a true professional even when under immense stress. However, as a man of (magi-)science he has a tendency to turn his nose up at mysticism and traditions that exist purely for tradition’s sake.

Background:
Edward Portsmith was once a Dreadnaught of the Commonwealth Empire, a nation situated next to the valley of wonders on the blessed continent of the world of Athela.
Said Empire began as a joining of the many species of the world for mutual protection and the sharing of knowledge. Though it set out with benign intentions, ambition and technological development quickly outgrew the concepts of the original charter, resulting in strife, both internally between competing factions, and externally with the other major power in the land, the elven court.
A group known as the Shadowborn sought to take advantage of this strive to file all out war, weakening them both in order to make the realm easy pickings for their extradimensional masters. However Edward, along with his childhood friend Leana and a group known as the Torchbearers managed to unpick the conspiracy, though not before much blood and death was sown in its name.
Despite their efforts, it was not enough to save their nation, nor their world. Across Athela worldgates, portals to other worlds in the multidimensional space known as the astral sea, opened, and from them came Godir, all powerful sorcerer kings styling themselves as gods, who had been banished long ago for crimes committed against the world. Edward and Leana stood at the head of the commonwealth’s defenses, but in its weakened state, and against the ancient magics of the Godir, they stood little chance as entire armies were sent plummeting through rits and the astral sea, where they were left adrift in a realm of maddening chaos.
Through Leana’s magic and Edward’s ingenuity they and some of their forces survived this intended death sentence, eventually crashing on a distant world. There they rebuilt, but, haunted by their travels through the astral sea, something went wrong in many of their minds. Including Edward’s.
He led his fellow madmen on a crusade across the worlds of the astral sea, slashing and burning any who might bow to a Godir, even those who served the more benevolent Godir that had not invaded his home realm, or even stood opposed to those that had.
Concerned about her friend, Leana reached out to the very people he sought to destroy, and, with one of their help, tracked down the source of Edward’s madness. In studying ancient lore she came to find out about the ancient evil known as the Urrath, that the Shadowborn had truly served, and how had gripped his mind. With this knowledge in hand, and with the Godir’s help, she managed to free him from the Urrath’s tendrils before he destroyed either himself or everyone else.
Sickened by what he had done and what had been done to him, Edward turned himself and his forces against the Urrath’s servants whose existence had been unveiled by the investigations of his condition. Yet they struck first, invading the realm of Athelahe had once called home, a realm he once again went to the defense of. Alongside him fought the very Godir he had been pitted against, only for Galeem’s light to strike and capture them all in a snapshot with it's brilliant light.

In the Now:
Edward has found himself fighting a different corruption on a different set of islands alongside a different set of divine beings. Without the backing of the commonwealth or its even lesser successor, he has found himself acting as an independent mercenary, providing flaming armaments and disposable spear walls to augment the angel’s forces. On a more personal level however, he is interested in the various Maker and Zonai constructs that dot the islands, and how he might be able to claim that magitech for himself, despite the dangers of the corruption infesting some of them.

Job: Dreadnaught

Specialty: Edward brings a small army to the field, as well as party wide buffs, and long ranged magical support. He’s also not a half bad fighter either, though while a fair cut above the rank and file, he is no one man army.

Inventory:

• A horse: Edward has ridden many the exotic steeds over the years, but when it comes down to it there’s nothing quite as dependable as a horse. Particularly this one is christened ForgeHeart and has been with him for a while now. Its saddle bags provide some extra local storage space.
• magelock rifle: a magical high power musket with unlimited ammo, excellent range and the ability to ignore half the armor and magic resistance of the target. It is, however, too bulky to be fired mounted, has a poor rate of fire, and has a 60% accuracy rate . That last can however be addressed if the user activates a stabilizing spell that anchors them in place for a few moments, boosting the accuracy to 140%.
• Sword and magelock pistol: much more suitable for mounted combat and skirmishing than the above. What the pistol lacks in range and raw damage it matches in penetration power and exceeds in terms of accuracy, while the blade can be used to put down foes who close the pistol's limited range. Pistol and blade can naturally be used separately, but they make for quite the effective team.
• Soldier's supplies: Rations, water flask, a bed roll, shaving equipment, spare cloths, writing supplies, a journal, soap, and everything else a professional soldier would need out on campaign.

Lv: 1
EXP: ////////// 0/10

Abilities:

• Tome of the Reavers
  
  • Designate Target (tier 1 Combat Spell): surrounds one target in a blood red aura that makes them count as flanked and take 25% more damage for 3 seconds, as well as adding 2 stacks of the marked debuff for 9 (which help guide the aim of those trying to strike/shoot the target, decreasing their evasiveness by 10% by each stack). Can target anything as long as Edward can see it.
• Tome of Pyromancy
  
  • Searing weapons (tier 1 enchantment): melee and ranged physical attack of the caster and their allies are ignited, doing 10% less physical damage, but 20% extra fire damage, as well as being able to inflict a burning debuff on their foes on 60% of their strikes (weak fast attacks only have 30%, strong slow attacks have 90%, and magic resistance reduces the chance). The burning debuff deals a small amount of fire damage over 10 seconds, but can be stacked up to 5 times on a single target to give them a proper roasting.
• Tome of Enchantment
  
  • Bronze and Copper (tier 1 and tier 3 units): Edward can animate squads of 6 human sized copper golems or squads of 2 far more durable and dangerous bronze golems who tower twice the height of their lesser kin. As golems, they are heartless machines entirely at the beck and call of their summoner.
    Both kinds are armed with caverly/monster slaying polearm, with which bronze golems are capable of making aoe cleaving attacks with their helbards that can hit multiple foes.
    They are reinforced against physical ranged attacks, fairly durable to physical melee attacks, but weak to magical strikes and especially electricity. Generated by a singular spell as the squad is, they are unable to split into smaller units. While this seems inconvenient, one upside of this is that excess magical healing done to the squad can be used by the spell to resurrect destroyed members of it.

Skills:

• Martial Expertise: From horseback riding and gryphon piloting to wielding swords, bows, guns and lances, Eward was trained in every martial art practiced in his commonwealth before it was destroyed, making him very adaptable to different equipment.
• Mana Fuel Cells: Without an empire to mine mana crystals to fuel his magical warmachine, Edward relies of a set of megi-mechnaical devices that can compress ambient mana into volumes he can actually use.
  Tier 1/2/3/4/5 unit squads and enchantments require the allocation up 1/2/4/7/12 cells each to maintain, while un-allocation cells can be used to cast Tier 1/2/3/4/5 tome spells, draining 1/2/4/7/12 each cast. The cells expended to cast spells can be recharged using a simple ritual, though it is one that is easily disturbed and thus only really usable outside of combat.
  Edward has access to 6 at level one and gains 2 more every subsequent level

Weaknesses:

• Preparative magic: Tome enchanting and summoning spells are rituals, and are therefore not viable for using on the fly. Instead Edward needs to come into a fight with a pre-prepared and buffed squad, rather than forming that toolkit on the fly. It also means that his losses will not be replaceable unless he can get out of a fight and get space to rebuild his forces.
• Breached mental fortress: his dip into the astral sea and mental manipulation by the Urrath has left cracks in his mind, ready to be exploited by more direct assault, making him a 50% vulnerability to psychic attacks and effects.
• Science over superstition: Believes in cold hard facts and is liable to ignore tradition or superstition based wisdom or warnings about forbidden places or powers.

Spirits:

• N/A

Rapport:

• ForgeHeart
  
  • A dependable steed if ever there was one, though Edward has been de-horsed enough to know to not get too attached to any individual steed.

Name: Venom Snake

Origin: Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain

Appearance:

Personality: Venom Snake came to share many mental and physical aspects with Big Boss. He was a strong-willed figure with a somewhat grim, realistic outlook on the world. He prefers to work alone, but still cares for those around him. There are moments where he displays compassion toward his opponents and prefers righteous acts of justice, as he chose not to kill Quiet or Huey despite being in an advantageous position to do so. Believing that he was the original Big Boss, Venom Snake also shared many of Big Boss' habits, including his habit of smoking. Although not sadistic like Ocelot, and not as vengeful to the same degree as Miller, Snake does display a wrathful side. Most notable, however, is his selfless nature; treating anyone he grows close to, or anyone under his Command, as if they were his own soldiers. However, those that take the time to bond with him off the battlefield will see a side of Snake that, to date, only one other person has.

Venom Snake is largely observational, preferring to listen to everything before speaking, if speaking at all. He is methodical in approaching missions and avoids taking unnecessary risks; opting to maintain stealth for as long as he can before going loud. Being an opportunistic combatant, Venom never underestimates his enemies and always tries to stay one step ahead when he can; using the environment to his advantage whenever possible, and sees retreating as a last resort should he become outmatched.

During moments of downtime, Snake can be seen engaging in a variety of activities where the nature of the situation permits it. Most times if he's not enjoying a Phantom Cigar, he's listening to music cassettes on his iDroid or working on physical conditioning. Despite not being a socialite, Snake will engage in conversation when prompted- though there always seems to be an anticipatory caution that prevents true relaxation.

Lastly, Snake is generally understanding and receptive to the concerns and opinions of others, but harbors a dislike of egotistical and selfish individuals. He views those who place themselves ahead of the greater picture to be nothing short of a liability, and may outright refuse an order if such places him or his companions in needless danger. Snake is never quick to anger or have a hair-trigger temper, but if he is pushed around enough, he won't hesitate to strike back.

Background: Prior to 1975, the MSF soldier known as Venomous Doberman (Logan Woods) served as a member of the 75th Ranger Regiment, 1st Infantry Division during the Vietnam War. Following the war's conclusion in 1973, Woods signed onto a contract with a Private Force (PF) known as Blackwatch. Logan had served with them for several months before being deployed to Costa Rica to thwart Peace Sentinel operations, as the organization had tracked the mysterious activities of an agency known as CODESA operating in the region since the early 70's. On a quiet night during a patrol, Logan was ambushed and quickly subdued by an unknown assailant, waking up hours later in a darkened room and interrogated by Big Boss himself. Initially discouraged to abandon his team, Logan ultimately accepted and was assigned as a combat medic; dispatched throughout various operations as Mother Base sought to liberate the region from Peace Sentinel and KGB activities.

During the Ground Zeroes incident, Logan was on the Boss's helicopter during his rescue of Paz and Chico; having to remove an implanted bomb within Paz after noticing the abdominal wound. When the attack on Mother Base forced an emergency diversion, Logan provided covering fire from the inside of the chopper as Kazuhira Miller was only able to be evacuated. With the helicopter in retreat, Paz awoke and revealed herself to have a secondary bomb planted inside her; throwing herself out of the helicopter as Logan quickly moved to shield the Boss from the resulting explosion.

Awakening from a medically induced coma nine years later in a Cyprus hospital, the now codenamed Venom Snake escaped the hospital's assassin sent to kill him (along with its subsequent destruction) with the help of a fellow patient who called himself Ishmael; later encountering Revolver Ocelot as the two men journeyed into Afghanistan to rescue Miller from the Russians. From there, Diamond Dogs slowly built up and emerged as a leading PF from the network of established mercenary companies. Snake succeeded in rescuing Code Talker, capturing and bonding with both Quiet and DD, and encountering Skull Face; the latter of which was defeated alongside Sahelanthropus before being mercilessly maimed by Snake.

Weeks after Diamond Dogs became crippled from the second parasitic outbreak, along with Quiet's exit from Diamond Dogs, Venom Snake, Diamond Dogs, and the entirety of Mother Base were swept away in a tidal wave of light. Venom Snake would have never learned of who he was originally, and his legacy is lost to all but unknown to himself.

In the Now: Venom Snake operates within Mafia-Town; safeguarding the island where he can from threats as they appear.

Job: Mercenary Commander

Specialty: Close Quarters Combat/Battle Specialist, Infiltration, Tactical Espionage Operations

Inventory:

Wu-S Pistol: A bolt-action handgun with a suppressor, this pistol fires tranquilizer darts. As such, the rounds fired won't even penetrate glass fixtures. However if a dart gets imbedded into flesh, the cocktail of narcotics administered will be delayed in incapacitating the target (or ineffective at all) unless a headshot or neck shot is made, and even then depending on the target's resistance does it have a high possibility to fail outright. Against augmented humans and whatever have you, this weapon may have little to no effect and will require multiple, successful hits to be able to knock a target out. Fitted on his right holster.

AM D114LB-9: A customized .45 semi-automatic handgun with a black tactical conversion kit, extended magazine, under-barrel laser/light combo device, and suppressor. Fitted on his left holster.

iDroid: This handheld data terminal is capable of calling in support, providing encrypted communications, scanning documents, and can project a flat holographic map of the area in addition to monitoring the user's vitals.

Service knife: A standard-issue serrated black combat knife.

Bionic arm: A red bionic-myoelectric arm prosthesis was utilized by Venom Snake in 1984. The prosthesis replaced his right arm, as it had been lost in the aftermath of the Ground Zeroes Incident in 1975, although he was originally fitted with a simpler 'hook' prosthesis.

Sneaking suit (Diamond Dogs): The Sneaking Suit manufactured by Diamond Dogs during this time prioritized shock absorption and resistance. It was made of high-strength aramid fibers and has sound absorbing boots, and a shock absorbent and resistant vest that likely suppressed any type of damage that could stunt the user for a second. While not as armored as the Battle Dress, it is Venom's preferred armor type.

Lv: 1 (You start with 5 level-upgrades you can split between Powers and Skills)
EXP: 0/10

Abilities: (N/A)

Skills:

CQC/CQB: Rumored to have been trained in CQC by Big Boss himself following his recruitment, Venom Snake is an expert in hand-to-hand combat alongside close combat techniques with a personal defense weapon/sidearm. Venom Snake's CQC uses a blend of fast brutal strikes, heavy hits and momentum-based throws aimed to quickly disorient, disarm, and neutralize his opponents.

Gunfighting: Venom Snake is proficient in engaging hostiles with all manner of weapons, though keeping in mind things around his universe will be far easier to handle in battle compared to something from another universe.

CLS/Field Surgery: Venom Snake is a talented battlefield surgeon and combat medic; able to stabilize combat casualties and perform light field surgeries in the event that proper medical support is unavailable.

Athletic: Despite pushing his mid forties, Snake is not quick to tire out and can sustain long periods of physical activity.

Hyper-reflexive: Venom Snake possesses a greater than average reaction speed during an adrenal dump; allowing him to see the world as if it was 'slowed' for a very limited time.

Weaknesses: (Practical limitations, detrimental ‘stats’, and deficiencies. Include three)

Close shave: Logan had thrown himself in the Boss's path just before Paz's secondary bomb detonated; losing his right arm below the elbow, and ending up with 108 foreign bodies embedded into his body as well as blinding his left eye. Several fragments had landed close to his heart, with one prominent metallic sliver lodging itself in his cerebral cortex. Consequently, a carbide-titanium 'horn' was placed as a cover around the protrusion. Although capable of withstanding light impacts, Venom Snake suffers from faded colors shortly after waking, PTSD episodes, hallucinations, and can even be brought into a fugue-like seizure state if the horn is struck hard enough.

Phantom: Being a 'clone' of Big Boss in all but genetics, Venom Snake shares many personality traits with the Legendary Soldier. As a result, Logan's previous personality, traits, and mannerisms are either blurred or overridden due to the extensive hypnotherapy. This makes him appear subdued or stoic, and he can be often seen coming across as grim, cynical or overly pragmatic. He also lacks Big Boss's wit and detailed knowledge of weapon systems, and cannot interpret foreign languages.

Human: Venom Snake may be a legendary soldier, but that doesn’t mean a burst from a 20mm auto cannon can’t cut him in half. Sustained gunfire, heavy calibers, magical manipulation, or exploitation of weakpoints are all acceptable means of defeating Venom.

Spirits: (Any spirits your character possesses should be listed here with their type)
Spirit name - Type (I'm still understanding how this works, so any feedback would be huge in clarification to Snake's character.)

Rapport: (You can keep track of your Rapport here. As you level up Rapports, consider linking the posts here and listing what they give you) (Gonna leave this here for reminder purposes!)
