"You'll never beat the swarm of my children!"
Name: Apia von WingstarTitle: Hivemother
Age: Pretty Damn Old
Gender: Female
Allegiance: Hell
Race: Queen Bee
Height: 5'1.5"
Weight: ~100lb.
Personality:A very... maternal woman, Apia will act very protective of any child she comes across, and while she may see them as her own young, she'll still put them to work at building her ultimate domain. She has a major sweet tooth, and she's unrelenting in a fight, fully ready to pelt you with swarms and swarms of her workers while happily stabbing you herself, over and over, as you swell up into an adorably swollen ball of poison and pain. She enjoys a nice bottle of freshened honey, the finest of all foods, and she doesn't dare talk down to those who could easily squash her like the pitiful insect she is.
Oh, and she likes to hug people.
History: Not much is really known about the Queen aside from her often-told story of how she once rivaled a Vassal in terms of strength and power (although that time was long before the Machina had discovered electricity, and it was a weaker vassal). What is known about her is that she's spent her last couple of centuries in retirement, trying to construct her own home within the confines of Hell. She tried to fight for the Heavens once, but was hastily casted out when one of her drones stung Deva's face. It was seen as an act of aggression on her part, and she retreated to the confines of Hell as a suitable place to set up her home and domain.
As time passed, she began to become more and more tired of the same process every day. Building her home up was becoming repetitive, especially when you were only building it out of the same materials. She craved variety in her home, and there was one good way to get that variety. Coming out of her retirement to hunt for lands and new materials to construct her home out of. It was a risky idea, but then she remembered that there wasn't much penalty for dying in the Nexus, so she was ready to take on the world! Her home would be the finest in all of Hell- no, THE ENTIRE NEXUS!
Powers:Queenly Majesty - Being the Queen Bee, Apia has distinct control over any bees or the like, often times turning them into her own minions and swarming her opponents with waves upon waves of pure torment and buzzy terror.
- Defend Formation - Apia directs her minions to a defensive form, maximizing the amount of damage lessened at the sacrifice of her own strength and mobility.
- Attack Formation Alpha - Apia directs her minions to swarm something or someone and accumulate a steady amount of damage onto the enemy, acting like a sort of poison.
- Attack Formation Beta - Similarly to Alpha, Beta is a direction of a swarm to encompass something/someone, but instead of doing steady damage, it does instantaneous damage. The damage output is ridiculous, but the cost of it is greater, ending up with hordes of dead bees and wasps afterwards. It's slightly unnerving for Apia to witness these bees.
Stinger Regrowth - Apia, unlike most other bees, does not die when her stinger is lost. It instead is regenerated through some form or another, and she is able to continue life like nothing happened.
Pollination - As a bee, Apia has grown accustomed to the many different varieties of pollen brought to her hive, and as such, she has grown into a resistance of it. Any adverse effects of pollen spread on a battlefield will not affect her (unless it is in very high concentrations or in major abundance).
Flight - She can fly using her tiny insect wings... or is it magic? Bees are too heavy to fly...
Weapons / Equipment: Stingers - They're stingers the size of shortswords, capable of being thrown like javelins and able to poison like darts. That's a deadly combination.
The Honey Rod - A magical wand, this weapon is capable of dispensing high amounts of bees and wasps within a very short amount of time, giving Apia a near-limitless supply of her ammunition. If the rod is seperated from her for too long, it will start spewing bees out without any orders, making them hostile to anyone around.
Other: it's hip to fuck bees
