[CHAR] Noble Arms: Restoring Hope - With Gratitude to TheHangedMan

Pablo Legazpi

Appearance:

Height: ~1.8 Meters. Weight: 55 kgs.

Name: Pablo Legazpi

Age: 16

Nationality: Filipino

Noble Arm Name & Appearance: Katotohanan Ng Mundo (Truth of the World)



Noble Arm Abilities:

The Light of Truth - By touching a target with any part of the sword, Pablo can reveal said target's 'truth'; this, in essence, means he can find out their life, their thoughts, and their secrets, without lies, self-delusions, and filters. When used upon a living person, they also see what is being revealed as well and know, instinctively, that it's the truth. When used on an inanimate object, Pablo can find out events the object was involved in; useful when used against a murder weapon. This power can undo any form of mind control or mental effect, illusions that are not based on holograms, and mundane indoctrination and brainwashing techniques, as well as various forms of insanity that lead one to believe lies.

But the drawback of this power is twofold: One, Pablo also uses the power on himself every time he activates it, preventing him from lying to himself about his actions and their consequences. The other flaw is that whenever Pablo uses any of his other powers (see below) to fight, he cannot use the Light of Truth.

The Light of Primefire - Pablo can release waves of light that knockback or slightly singe Non-Noble Arms wielders, but burn Noble Arms wielders with fire that cannot be healed by Noble Arms - although Mundane Science isn't bound by that restriction.

Mana Shield - Pablo creates a shield of raw mystic force; a dome or circle two to four meters in height and length, that blocks or reduces the damage from a mundane or 'mystic' attack. Note that too much force would just shatter this barrier.

Eyes of Truth - Pablo focuses the Sword's power into his eyes, allowing him to 'read' the hidden powers of Noble Arms within sight range, even if they are invisible or otherwise concealed. Like the above two powers, this cannot be used alongside the Light of Truth, though in this case, it's only because the latter is redundant with the Eyes.

Personality: Pablo is a naturally reckless person who relies on his powers too often, but can take advice when needed. He also has a high opinion of himself and his intelligence, as well as a sense of self-loathing whenever this high opinion is proven to be wrong. Despite this, however, Pablo is a kind person, one who focuses on helping others as well as himself, and is aware of his flaws. He is someone who wants to have friends and goes to great lengths to get people to like him and keep liking him.

*Likes: Sweets, Swordsmanship, History, and Literature.

*Dislikes: Bullies, Spicy Food.

Fears: Showing his darker side to his peers.

Bio: Pablo's great-grandparents were migrant workers who came to the city of Manila in the Magsaysay Administration, looking for opportunity, and unlike many others, finding it. While said great-grandparents were menial workers, their children, Pablo's grandparents, were lowly clerks, while Pablo's mother became a lawyer and his father an Eskrima instructor. And so, Pablo grew into some wealth and affluence, despite his mother frequently taking on cases for free. Despite this, Pablo's life seemed normal, although he was more intelligent than his peers by a large margin, to the point where he took advanced classes. This made him feel isolated, and also the target of bullies. It became worse when he realized that he was bisexual early on.

He was afraid that if anyone found out, he would be expelled from his family and left out in the streets; he didn't want that. But at the same time, this was what he was born with, and he couldn't change it - he tried. The only people he can confide his secrets to, as well as doubts, were people on the Internet. Yes, foolish idea, but as long as he didn't reveal his name and personal details, he would be all right, right? Wrong, because eventually, one of those people, a woman, found out his personal details and tried to blackmail him for money.

Pablo had to make a choice; risk his secret coming out, or steal from what was not his? He chose the former, and he 'came out' to his mother that day. Surprisingly, his mother was understanding; not entirely approving, but not rejecting, either. And so they chose to confront the potential blackmailer together, Pablo's mother had a gun, just in case.

The blackmailer turned out to be one a former plaintiff that Pablo's mother had successfully prosecuted, and now sought to ruin the life of her family in response. She was also a Noble Arms master with a Gauntlet that controlled darkness. Caught in a trap, Pablo and his mother risked death...until Pablo manifested his own Noble Arm, the Noble Arm of Truth. Taken by surprise, the blackmailer was defeated through a combination of quick moves and sucker punches by Pablo. And after that, the boy transferred to Trinidad Academy, a local school for Arms Masters, rejecting offers from more reputable institutions because Trinidad Academy was both in his country and closer to home.

After two years in Trinidad, the mysterious new Director of the Academy sent Pablo to join Operation: Symbiosis on the condition that he was not to be sent to Combat. His job? As an investigator and interrogator who can get answers without torture...

*Current Goal: See that Operation: Symbiosis succeeds.

Military Rank: Military Police-equivalent.

Eliza Logan

Appearance:

5'4, 170.6 pounds.

Name: Eliza Logan

Age: 20

Nationality: American

Noble Arm Name & Appearance:

Flamebringer

Noble Arm Abilities:

Fire Generation - Flamebringer can generate fire and control already-existing flames, moving them from place to place at will. The sword can launch waves of fire with every slash, heat itself to a blowtorch's temperature, and send out fireballs that are slightly slower than bullets but can explode for massive damage.

Friendly Fireproofing - With a moment of concentration, Eliza can magically make her flames refuse to burn people she does not count as an enemy, enabling her to spare civilians and allies from her attacks. With another moment of concentration, she can also make it refuse to burn wood and othet flammable materials. This makes her an immensely valuable asset on clearance missions, as it means that she can spray fire around without risking too much collateral damage.

Personality: Eliza likes to think of herself as ordinary except for her Noble Arm. She mixes with Arms Master and normal person alike easily, trying as best as she can to project a breezy or breezy-ish personality. Kind, joyful, and fun-loving, Eliza nevertheless knows that Operation: Symbiosis is a hard gamble and that the local populace is hostile to foriegn intervention. She hates the Hammer of Masters and Disablers for reasons she deems just, as to her, it's not just intent that matters, but also one's methods of gaining victory. Even if there are times where the ends justify the means, it should only be rarely.

*Likes: Babysitting the child prodigies and Arms Masters accompanying the Operation, Reading, Saving Civilians.

*Dislikes: Being feared and hated, while knowing it'd happen a lot. Also, Licqorice.

Fears: Having to commit an atrocity.

Bio: The daugther of a soldier and a nurse, Eliza Logan lived an average life, one that hadn't changed even when her Noble Arm manifested. Her parents handled the apperance of said arm without much fanfare, reminding Eliza that it was what one did with her tools that mattered, not what tools one had in the first place. And Eliza listened, knowing the truth in those worlds. In her small town, she was loved, and quickly learned the ways of talking and acting needed to keep it that way. This served her in good stead as she joined the American Military, completing her training just before Operation: Symbiosis was proposed.

As the Operation gained support among various sectors of society, Eliza volunteered to join, and it was discovered that she was good with 'talented but immature' kids. And so as the Operation's troops began deployment in Lebanon, Jordan, Israel, Palestine and Cyprus, Eliza was tasked with guarding Pablo Legazpi, the Filipino kid from Trinidad Academy. For it was foreseen by those with precognitive Noble Arms that the two of them were the linchpin to any possibility of victory in the Operation.

Thankfully, the two hit it off without any problems, with Eliza finding Pablo intelligent and surprisingly mature for his age. And so, preperations for their baptism of fire continued...

*Current Goal: Ensure the success of Operation: Symbiosis.

Military Rank: Sergeant First Class

*Optional

Playable Characters

Operation: Symbiote

Lone and Empty-Voiced Phantom

“Dreams…? Hopes…? I… don’t have that. All I have is Katz… and my miserable reality.”

Name: Ein Rubicante
Gender: Male
Species: Arms Master
Age: 17
Height: 1m 70cm
Weight: 54kg
Sexual Orientation: Has no orientation because of psychological state
Nationality: Brazilian
Personality: Thanks to him being an Arms Master, Ein developed a complete lack of desire towards living. Because of that, he grew completely lonely and adapted well to the situation. He’s mostly silent and doesn’t begin any conversations, oftenly excluding himself for them as he considers himself an aberration. Due to his past, Ein also tends to treat himself as an object instead of a human being, considering himself just a tool for completing whatever means necessary. He also fears to be touched and doesn't like when people get too close to him.

Whenever he is alone, which is the most appropriate scenario in Ein’s mind, he tends to read books and loves to enjoy the beauty of nature. He also loves looking at normal humans, especially children, doing activities as usual. It reminds him of his life before discovering he was an Arms Master, where he considered himself to be truly happy.

• Likes: reading, nature, seeing normal humans, spectating children playing;
• Dislikes: large groups of people, being reminded that he is an Arms Master, medium to long conversations, topic derailing;
• Fears: human touch, people getting too close to him;

Aligned with: Unaffiliated for the moment.
Military Rank: N/A
Bio: Ein Rubicante's origins reside in São Paulo, Brazil. He's the only son of a common family, not having any high social status or relations to powerful people back at his country. While born in brazilian solo, his father originates from Germany, which is why his name means "one", being the first child. Also, Ein wasn't an Arms Master from the beginning, being born as a normal human and gaining his power as time passed. He also has heterochromia, with his left eye being blue and his right eye being green.

Ein lived a normal life until the time he was 6 years old, when his Noble Arms manifested and traumas began. He always used to return back from school alone. He had friends but they didn't live near him. One day, however, Ein was surprised by a stange man that asked directions for a shop. Innocently, Ein decided to help the man, only to be taken hostage while he demanded money for the boy's freedom. He stood three days captive, while the police tried to reason with the robber. Those were days where he began to fear human touch: the man assaulted Ein physically and even sexually if the boy were to cry or be disobedient. In the last day, while trying to assault Ein once more, the man jumped on the boy, only to feel a stab in his stomach. When both looked, Ein was holding a dagger, who appeared out of nowhere. The wound was fatal and the man died instantly. At that moment, the police invaded the place because of the sudden silence and saw Ein shaking nervously and teary-eyed while holding the dagger. They didn't charge the boy because of his hostage position and declared his "attack" as a manner of defense. They took the dagger with them and Ein returned to his mother and father.

But Ein never was the same. He feared hugs, pats, kisses and grew distant from friends and family. His parents had no money to take to a psychologist, so they tried the best they could to bring back his former self, but to no avail as Ein refused to accept the human touch. He still managed to talk, but never got close to people. Four years later, Ein had joined middle school but not on good terms. Because of his fear and rather quiet personality, bullies took the best out of him, eventually taking his lunch money and making Ein a sort of slave, since he didn't refuse to follow what they ordered as long as they wouldn't come close to him. One day, however, as they ordered him to bring a 2L bottle of coke, Ein was called by a teacher and left his path. By then, lunch time was over and he had failed to bring what the bullies wanted. When school ended, Ein had to face them as they planned to beat him up for not doing what they wanted. Initially, he ran away but saw himself trapped into an alley. He begged for them to leave him alone, but one of them jumped to beat him up. As he did, the dagger from four years past reappeared on Ein's hand and the bully was wounded in the stomach. Like in that case, the wound was fatal and the kid died.

Rumors were being spread around school and Ein was eventually feared by everyone, including his former classmates. By that time, Ein also began to fear even the idea of having a conversation, with the risk of killing someone once more. That fear took place and left him void of any sort of happiness. But what finally broke him apart was his parents. They grew to be feared and hated amongst other adults because of Ein and turned their backs to their son. As his mother said "once is forgivable, twice isn't." The distance between them grew until one day, Ein's existence at home as completely ignored. Feeling himself crushed and hopeless, Ein ran away from home, never looking back. He kept going to school on his own, but had an aspect of a despair-filled 10-year old child.

The life on the streets was harsh and Ein had to deal with more than just one problem. The dagger also never left, no matter how much Ein tossed it away. That's when his powers began to suddenly manifest. He saw himself throwing more than one dagger sometimes and he could even see another himself whenever he wanted to. That helped Ein on some cases, but not always the good ones. He tried his best to never resort to violence in order to survive. One day, however, he was approached by another man, named André, who was a police officer and detective. This man offered him a home and another life, saying he heard about Ein's story around town and decided to see for himself what sort of kid he was. While completely reluctant to the offer, Ein was taken by pressure since Damian never gave up on him and was constantly visitng the streets after the boy.

They started to live together. Ein left school, but was instructed by a private tutor. During six years, André also teached the boy self-defense with the use of the dagger, since for some reason it would never leave Ein. He also got training on how he would use his powers. When Ein turned 17, André told him they would leave Brazil because he was going to join a larger project and Ein's presence was also requested. With no way to refuse, Ein agreed to the idea, never wondering why he was being called...
Current Goal: Ein wishes to see humans in peace, while secretly seeking a way to release himself from the Noble Arms and return to be a normal human being.
Stats: Ein is a fast attacker, having an excellent speed to deal attacks at his foes while also having considerable spiritual energy to resist magical attacks and intelligence to quickly adapt to the situation present to him. However, his attack and physical damage defense are completely lackluster and his teamwork is horrible since he has been working alone most of the time and evades human contact, in and outside of battle.

Noble Arms


Name: Katzbalger
Summary: Ein Rubicante’s Noble Arms. A dagger enshrouded by shadows, allowing the user to create illusions of the weapon and himself.
Rank: C
Type: Dagger, throwing
Element: Dark/Phantom
Abilities: Katzbalger gives Ein the power to create illusion of himself or of the dagger. The illusions are perfectly equal to its real counterpart and they can attack as well. However, the illusions can only deal 50% of the damage given by the original counterpart, which makes them weaker. Combined with Ein’s lack of strength, this weapon isn’t exactly strong.

• Illusion Creation: Ein has the abilities of creating illusions of himself and/or Katzbalger in order to attack foes with different strategies and combos. However, those illusions have only 50% of Ein's/Katzbalger's strength, so they aren't strong enough to take down enemies on their own, meaning that the real Ein needs to attack as well.
• Illusion Manipulation: Ein's illusions can replicate what the original counterpart does and also attack with different movements as well. However, they have to executed in a close distance to Ein. If these illusions attack too far, they will immediately vanish, risking the fact that no damage or hit will be done with them.
• Set-Position Homing Rebound: Katzbalger and its illusions have a homing rebound effect innate to the dagger, activated if Ein places a special rebound sigil in the field. However, the effect is restricted to happen with one dagger per sigil, only three sigils can be put in the field at once and the daggers home to the enemy's latest position, not to the enemy itself.
• Null Memorial: Ein's final skill. If he's driven to despair by any methods, a black fog will enshroud him and disperse. If the enemy is caught on the black fog, he'll be locked into an illusion where a multitude of daggers stab him in various places. If the skill fails, however, Ein will be left into a non-attacking state until someone aids him and brings him back.

Wind's Tactical Whisper

“Life is like chess. Either you outsmart your opponent or you’ll receive the checkmate.”

Name: Sumizome no Shion
Gender: Male
Species: Arms Master
Age: 26
Height: 1m 87cm
Weight: 65kg
Sexual Orientation: Bisexual
Nationality: Japanese
Personality: Shion is the sort of person who can be described as the “kind, yet teasing big brother” person. He’s very attentive to people and try his best to help them in whatever problems they might have, but doesn’t lose the chance to provoke them in any sort of ways. He does that mostly for making them smile, which is what Shion likes to see on people.

Although he doesn’t act like it, Shion is a natural tactician. He has a tendency to analyze everything, whether trivial or important, in order to use them for his’ and his allies’ favor. If he’s not doing anything, he plays strategy games. Not just for entertainment, but for his own mind to keep working.

Shion also tends to be an instigator, trying to push people to take decisions, whether they are positive or negative. That being said, he doesn’t like being put into pressure whenever he needs to decide, nor being interrupted when he’s planning or concentrated into something

• Likes: strategies, tactics, instigating, teasing, smiles;
• Dislikes: sadness, power-focused ideals, doing nothing;
• Fears: taking the wrong decisions, failed tactics;

Aligned with: Operation: Symbiote
Military Rank: Major
Bio: Sumizome no Shion is the eldest son of a quite regarded family back in Japan. Unlike many Arms Masters, whose life was somewhat normal until the appearance of the Noble Arm, the Sumizome family was already quite knowledgeable about their existence, being really focused on studying and understanding their existence and functions, which made them one of Japan's official researchers of Noble Arms. Following the traditions, Shion was taught ever since his childhood about them, while knowing he could have the prospect of becoming a Master himself.

The prospect became true and Shion's powers revealed ever since he was a 4-year old child. His training started from them onwards, with it helping on the studies conducted by the Sumizome. He was constantly balancing between his normal life and his training for years, while also becoming interested on strategies and tactical studies. Since his family has a history where most of their ancestors were tacticians of great importance to the Japanese war eras, Shion also harbored a love for tactics and immersed himself in that world. It began with the simple gaming of shogi, but with him already proving himself a great opponent to whoever decided to face him. He was eventually crowned Japan's shogi champion at the age of 13.

However, shogi grew to be uninteresting once he had already claimed the top spot. He decided to play the western version of his game: chess. It was similar to it, but he eventually loved how it seemed more eccentric. But the game wasn't known by anyone in his home or land, so he needed to go elsewhere to learn it. One problem existed though and that was the Sumizome study of Noble Arms. Shion was a fundamental part of it and it couldn't be stopped for his whimsical desires. At the age of 21, he decided to use the excuse of learning about Arm Mastery outside Japan in order to further enhance the study of Noble Arms, which was perfectly accepted by the rest of the family. With that, Shion travelled to the United Kingdom, in order to learn about chess and helping with the study. It didn't took too much time for him to be an excellent player of chess. Life turned around differently as he was called by the military after he won a national game. They had interest on how Shion was able to easily outsmart his opponents in a single game and decided to call him in as a strategist for an upcoming problem. He accepted the invitation and joined the ranks.

At that point, he learned about Operation: Symbiote. He was immediately placed upon the project, even though he never revealed anything about it. When Shion met with the general of the United Kingdom Army, he explained about his contact with the Japanese army while requesting their aid and was informed about the young man. Considering the operations were still in Asian solo, but could expand to Europe soon, they wanted to prevent such risks and needed an Arms Master to be sent there as a representative. With an agreement on both countries and his acceptance, Shion was sent as a representative of both countries. During the five years as a member, he stood the first two acting behind the operations as a strategist/tactician and deployed himself on the remaining three, proving himself to be a recognizable force amongst the operation and becoming a Major after his efforts.

One day, Shion receives a new order, one that would be kept permanently: watch and instruct over a possible new member of the Intelligence Squad. The name of the boy? Ein Rubicante.
Current Goal: Shion’s goal is to make sure everyone around him is safe and smiling, while also aiming to be a chess champion.
Stats: Shion’s stats are rather balanced. He has a medium-level attack and defense, considerable resistance and speed, while being extremely intelligent. He can work well on teams, but sometimes fails to adapt to others’ points of view sometimes.

Noble Arms


Name: Fugudoku
Summary: Sumizome no Shion’s Noble Arms. A blade capable of generating winds, from a small relaxing breeze to a ravaging current..
Rank: B
Type: Katana
Element: Wind
Abilities: Fugudoku gives Shion the power to create, control and manipulate the wind. He’s able to use it in various ways, such as movement assistance, projectile attacks and other such usages. The problem with such power is that wind isn’t an exact physical element, so the damage it does is rather low in comparison to other elements like Fire or Earth.

• Selective Damage: Shion can choose whom he wishes to damage or not. If Shion doesn't consider someone an enemy, Shion won't damage them at all.
• Attack Movement Alteration: Shion can use his wind powers to quickly change a movement he is executing to another one, changing his routine of attack. Even so, it doesn't happen in a way that his opponent cannot know or react to, so if the foe's smart enough, it can react well to whatever Shion could be planning next.
• Movement Enhancement: Shion can use his wind to move even faster than before, making it seem like he's warping around the field. It can also impulse dashes and jumpes, allowing him to reach greater distances. He doesn't get impervious to attacks, so he can be attacked while moving around.
• Wind Creation: Shion can create winds by himself and doesn't need to wait any natural wind to attack. It goes from a gentle breeze to a ravaging current. Granted, the wind alone cannot do damage, so it only creates distance unless he manipulates it into something else.
• Wind Manipulation: Shion can manipulate the wind and change its form and direction. He can also form projectlies and traps with the wind, allowing them to do damage. However, the wind isn't exactly a physical element so it's not strong as other elements and it's easily cancelled if attacked with something physical.
• Prayers of Tempest: Shion's final skill. For a period of five turns, Shion will infuse himself or an ally with a ravaging tempest, greatly raising their speed in attack and movement. This only aids with movement and attack speed, not granting any damage-related buffs nor transforming someone's attack into wind elemental attacks.

The Hammer of Masters

Freedom-Seeking Artist

“This world is like a museum, yet filled with filthiness. I’m going to sell all those grotesque pieces of “art” away, so the world can be beautiful!!”

Name: Alisa Clarent
Gender: Female
Age: 16
Species: Arms Master
Height: 1m 51cm
Weight: 47kg
Sexual Orientation: Straight
Nationality: French
Personality: Alisa is very peculiar. Although 16 years old, she loves to dress herself in costumes, her favorite being a bunny one she always wears. This shows that Alisa is indeed childish and hasn’t grown a little bit. She doesn’t speak cutesy, but rather on an artistic tone as if she was a famous painter herself. She also has the tendency to judge things with a single first impression. As a painter and lover of art, Alisa always comment about famous paintings, especially Mona Lisa by Leonardo Da Vinci. However, any critic to art and to paintings put people on her blacklist.

Alisa shares the vision of herself being something superior to a human and that humanity should be extinct. She believes that Arms Masters are “glorious paintings” and humans are “painted scraps”, so she developed a hatred towards humans.

Likes: painting, Mona Lisa, being an Arms Master, beautiful people;
Dislikes: common people, critics to her paintings, humanity in general, green;
Fears: People not liking art, having a life set to her;

Alignment: The Hammer of Masters
Military Rank: Officer cadet.
Bio: Alisa Clarent is the youngest daughter of the family she once belonged to. She was raised by a family of high regard in France, so she’s technically a noble, albeit never having the same amount of money as people on her status.

As a child, Alisa always loved going at museums and loved seeing classical art. From sculptures to paintings, that was he most favorite trip, even more than going to an amusement park or to a game center. Her true love to art came once she saw the Mona Lisa, by Leonardo Da Vinci. She decided to become an artist and said that her goal was to paint something the world could consider as prime as her most loved painting.

However, her parents had already decided her goal. She would enter into business administration career, much like her father. This made Alisa’s wish grow further and further, since she could never take a decision different from the set path that her parents had planned for her. This made her completely unhappy, so she began painting in secret, picking places around her home that her parents wouldn’t find her just so she could paint. It was a way for Alisa to escape from the undesirable goal placed for her to reach.

One day, during her secret painting routine, one of her usual brushes was getting unusable and she had nothing else to use. As she decided to try finger painting, a strange brush appeared on the table. It was a rather different and decorated brush, one she never saw before. Without any worries, Alisa kept using it and painted a squirrel passing by. After she finished painting, the squirrel she painted jumped out of the drawing board and moved around as a real animal. It was the point where her power rose up as an Arms Master.

Her secret, however, got exposed. Her mother followed her one day and discovered that Alisa was drawing and painting things. She forcefully took her daughter home and told her husband about what happened. He got enormously furious, broke Alisa’s brush and locked her in her room as if she was a prisoner. The love Alisa harbored to her parents crumbled and she could feel nothing but hatred towards them. She was tired of having to live a life she never wanted.

In a night, Alisa cried alone. When she looked at the table, the brush her father supposedly broke was there once again. She remembered of her power and got her drawing board. To get inspiration and looked outside. She saw a group of gangsters robbing a woman in the distance and did something horrible afterwards: to get revenge on her parents, she painted gangsters, one by one, drawing a total of six people. As they came to life, they scrambled around the house, breaking everything and subduing everyone inside, except for the girl.

For the next days, Alisa held the entire household hostage, doing whatever she wished with the group of “gangsters” she led. One day, she received a strange visit: a man, who told her that he could give her the life she wanted if she followed along his words. He explained her strange power and introduced her to the concept of Arms Mastery. He also told her that she was going to be chased and killed because of who she is, but that there was a salvation for her. If she joined an organization called the Hammer of Masters, she would be able to survive in the new world they would build.

Alisa didn’t think twice. As an offering, she gave her parents away as hostages and possibly tortured prisoners. Now, she walks alongside the Hammer in order to create a world where she can be free.
Current Goal: Alisa wishes for a world made only for Arms Masters, where she can be free to paint whatever she wants without boring humans around her telling what she needs to do.
Stats: Alisa isn’t the best attacker, as her damage output is poor in comparison to other Arms Masters. However, she has an amazing resistance to magic attacks, which makes her a little tanky to magic, while being suspectible to physical attacks. Considering her role, her speed is nothing extraordinary, but her intelligence makes up for it. As for teamwork, she isn’t bad, but isn’t good.

Noble Arms


Name: Alisa’s Excellence
Summary: Alisa Clarent’s Noble Arms. While this is technically a wand to conduct magic, Alisa uses as a brush for her creations.
Rank: C
Type: Wand
Element: None
Abilities: Alisa’s Excellence grants its user the power to make paintings directly from their imagination. Those paintings however are not only objects, as they can come to reality as “Fakes”. However, it does have limitations, such as said “Fakes” being notable and weaker than what their real counterpart can do. Also, Alisa cannot create something that is extremely stronger than her, such as another Arms Master or a tank.

• Paint Creation: Alisa can create paint whenever she wishes to, not needing buckets to refill her energy to attack. However, it's just paint so it can't do damage by itself.
• Imagination to Reality: Alisa's painted objects can come to life and even be used against her foes. Their attack power is reduced by 50%, so anything created by Alisa and brought to life cannot deal the same damage its counterpart would do.
• Buff Negation: While Alisa's paint can't do damage at all, it has a special property to cancel any sort of buffs. As such, if a person is covered in Alisa's paint, buffs cannot be given and any active buff will be instantly cancelled.
• Da Vinci's Atelier: Alisa's final skill. She can trap enemies into a illusion of an atelier in which her paintings' attack power raises. Also, it immediately cancels and negates buffs given to allies and enemies, to guarantee a battle based on stats alone. However, it stays only for two turns, so it's short lived.

The Disablers

Black Bullet Killer

“I don’t care about what you think, all of you are dying here, pieces of shit. This world is ours, not yours.”

Name: Devon Crow
Gender: Male
Age: 25
Species: Human
Height: 1m 76cm
Weight: 61kg
Sexual Orientation: Straight
Nationality: American
Personality: Devon holds nothing but revenge against Arms Masters. He desires to kill every single Arm Master, having only that as his goal in life. That made Devon grow to be a rather frigid and ruthless individual. He doesn’t show much happiness and thinks very oftenly of how he can kill Arms Masters faster. He doesn’t hold himself as a hero, but as a hunter who’s chasing monsters that must be killed.

If you are an ally, however, you might manage to get some of his kindness, for whatever’s left of it. He can be rather careful with people he considers something else than an ally, demonstrating oftenly signs that he cares about people as much as he can.

• Likes: killing Arms Masters, The Disablers’ line of logic;
• Dislikes: being defeated by an Arm Master, remembering his dead “sister”, Operation: Symbiote;
• Fears: seeing Arms Masters destroying the human world;

Alignment: The Disablers
Military Rank: Commander
Bio: Devon Crow is a member of the few remaining nomad tribes in Earth. They go unnamed, so much as to not get spotted by scholars authorities. His tribe still believes in the way of the warrior, so he was trained to fight ever since he was a child. He grew up never knowing his mother, but that never bothered Devon.

In his childhood, he became best friends with a girl named Luna, who was 3 years younger than him. They were inseparable friends and practically stood together all the time long. As time passed on, Luna lost her parents to wild animals while they were hunting. She was on the brink of sadness, when Devon comforted her thoroughly. She asked for him to become her “brother”, just so she could never be alone again. He heard her plea and decided to follow it, for as long as she could be able to smile again.

For the passage of time, Devon and Luna grew as if they were an actual family from the start. He was the older brother and she was the younger sister. The tribe had grown accustomed to that situation, even though their relation of blood was next to none. Soon, the knowledge of Arms Mastery had reached them, but they never believed on it, dispatching the idea as a “whim of the gods”.

In one day, however, that knowledge gave fruition to ruin. Devon and Luna were both doing their usual hunt when a group of human right extremists advanced towards them. By the sounds of their screams, they were after Luna, saying that she was an Arm Master. They ran away, but the group had guns and began to shoot at them. Luna was eventually hit in the neck and died instantly. Her death shocked Devon as he was sent into a fit of rage. The group of extremists cheered for a while, until Devon killed one of them. He took the dead human’s gun and shot the rest of them.

Bathed in blood and carrying Luna’s corpse, he went back to the tribe and told what happened to Luna. After the funeral was done, he told the tribe chieftain that he would leave forever, as he submitted himself to avenge Luna from now one, something that entered in conflict with the pursuit of strength the tribe believed.

During his travels, Devon chased unprotected Arms Masters and defeated them. Granted, they were weak, but he managed to do his part well. His actions were heard and the Disablers got in contact with him. His ruthless and vengeful mind was exactly what they needed for destroying Arm Mastery, so they proposed for him to become one of the commanders and lead the Disablers to victory. Devon didn’t think twice and accepted it.

“All for the sake of my revenge. Just you wait Luna, I’ll kill all of them. All those Arms Masters will die!”
Current Goal: Devon’s goal is to kill every single Arms Master in planet Earth, including the one who made his “sister” be targeted as one.
Stats: For a normal human, Devon is trained to kill. As such, his attack and speed are excellent and his defense isn’t bad as well. However, he doesn’t have resistance to magical attacks and is a berserker to boot, so he’s more acting than thinking. Because of his personality, his teamwork is also non-existent, as he will sacrifice even his companions if he needs to..

Novella Hearth

-
_{5'11", 167lbs| VA: Michael B. Jordan}

Name: Novella Hearth

Age: 18

Nationality: American

Noble Arm Name & Appearance |

_{Cat King Mantle}

Noble Arm Abilities:

Predatory Gaze - Novella is capable of instilling a deep sense of fear into both animals and humans upon direct and intense eye contact. Typically this manifests itself in various way. The weaker one is the severe the effects. The weakest of beings; animals, babies, and weak-willed adults tend to pass out. The stronger ones will bend the fear into a sense of caution. With practice, the range of his gaze can be extended.

Rule of Darkness - Novella becomes two times stronger at nightfall; four times, up to fifteen minutes after midnight. His strength falls back to two times stronger fifteen minutes after midnight and returns to normal as the sun rises. During this period, shrouds of darkness flow form his shoulders and upper arms.

King's Claws - Novella's claw are capable of cutting through any man-made material. The cutting power of his claws can also be sent out as shock waves towards his opponent, holding the innate cutting power of full-powered swing. When under nightfall, darkness shrouds his claws, burning and infecting his opponents with a temporary miasma that .

Superhuman Physiology - Novella gains superhuman strength and speed when wearing the Cat King Mantle, as well as an acute awareness of his surroundings. All of this culminates into a near extreme level of agility. At his peak he exceed speeds of seventy-five mph and can lift up to twenty tons. The Cat King's Mantle is also bulletproof against conventional ammunition and durable against Noble Arms weaponry.

Personality: Novella is an assertive teenager with a passion for saving people. He believes whole-heartedly that people can get along, despite the imaginary differences they've created. A lot of his values and beliefs came from a martial artist named Bruce Lee who broke racial barriers and introduced a lot of eastern philosophies to the west. He tries to flow with most situations, though at his core he's stubborn, self-conscious, and crude. Because of his ability to back up his talk with action, Novella is excessively prideful though he does make attempts to be humble. He has a soft side for animals, cats in particular because they taught him the value of being independent and affectionate.

*Likes: Jeet Kune Do, Savannah Cats, Fighting on behalf of Peace, Milk

*Dislikes: Being looked down on, Feeling weak and useless, Cheese, Chicken

Fears: Disappointing those who depend on him.

Bio: The son of two nurses, Novella grew up with a deep understanding of the preservation of life. His mothers, Mary-Ann Hearth and Jackie Hearth made sure to shower him with love but also give him space to discover himself. They bought him a cat to teach him responsibility and give him companionship outside of them. Where they traveled he was close behind; trips to Africa, Australia, Russia, and Europe left him with an appreciation of the world. There was plenty of beauty around him, however, there was also strife, famine, and war. Mary-Ann Hearth, an Arms Master had a powerful place amongst her kind. She was important to the medical field, with a Noble Arms in the shape of a Stethoscope, she could pin-point illnesses and injuries in the body with unparalleled precision.

However, some Arms Masters didn't take kindly to her marrying a regular human.

Novella experienced several hate-crimes against his mothers. Where his mind was once exploring the infinity that was his reality, it quickly became closed with anger, revenge, and his own ego. For a time he shied away from people and instead found himself more and more alone. If not for Leon, his Savanna Cat, he would have walked a different path long ago. However, he was far too confused to figure it out himself, so he opened up to his mothers about his problems... eventually. Oddly enough, it was Jackie that sat him down and coerced him to let go of his fears.

He found that practicing Jeet Kune Do with her was therapeutic.

At the age of twelve his own Noble Arms bloomed into existence. A garb that actually gave him the abilities to protect his loved ones. So for a time he did that, but soon it put him on the radar of the Oregon Arms Academy. There he received some training before being recommended for Operation: Symbiosis.

*Current Goal: To instill unity between Arms Masters and humanity.

Military Rank: Ensign

[Smike]

Ellie Vuković

Appearance:

Name: Elena "Ellie" Vuković

Age: 32

Nationality: American

Noble Arm Name & Appearance:

Life

Liberty

Summary: Life and Liberty are technically one and the same, the weapon merely switches between forms depending on Ellie's needs. Both are beautifully engraved, Life bearing bronze motifs of elk that contrast nicely with its dark wood furniture. Liberty is adorned with simple silver foliage with black filling in its grip. Both forms are equally ostentatious and flashy, fitting their user nicely.

Noble Arm Abilities: Harm No Innocents: Bullets fired from Life and Liberty will harmlessly pass through any living target that Ellie doesn’t wish to kill, ensuring that civilian casualties are kept to a minimum.
Smell Of Ozone: When activated Life fires golden bullets that "splash" against their target, the pool turning into an acid that will begin to eat through nonliving material. Most clothes will dissolve in seconds, weapons can be quickly corroded to the point of uselessness. Walls and other forms of cover can be destroyed in anywhere from a minute to ten minutes depending on the material.
Hollow Point:Liberty can fire silver bullets that penetrate deep into their target before shattering into dozens of shards. The pieces will quickly dissipate but leave a phantom pain behind, as if they were still there and growing long and more jagged. The victim will feel as if their body is being torn apart from the inside, although there’s no actual physical damage. This continues until Ellie is killed or dispels the ability. Allowing the shards to “grow” will continuously tax Ellie, especially if she speeds up the rate of growth.
On Eagle's Wings:Ellie can throw herself up in the air, hovering to get a better shot or gliding for extra maneuverability. This ability also makes her speed, agility and reflexes much faster than a normal human's. While she can't actually fly she can push off solid objects to keep rising.
Hunter's Talons:Ellie can materialize talons sharp enough to cut through steel if she needs to fight in close quarters.
Sleeping Dogs: Life and Liberty can fire a bullet that looks like a shard of lapis lazuli that can put a single target to sleep. Non Arms Users can be knocked out with immediately if taken by surprise, but people with Noble Arms can fight off the effects for anywhere from a few seconds to a minute. Shooting someone multiple times with this ability will put them to sleep faster, but fatigues Ellie in return.

Weaknesses:
Jammed:Trying to switch Life and Liberty between forms too many times will cause them to "jam", forcing her to wait for a minute before she can use them again.
Running Dry: They're guns, they need ammo. Each form of Life and Liberty can be fired seven times before "reloading", a process that takes five seconds per form.

Personality: Ellie is first and foremost a tomboy. She prides herself on being able to integrate with any group of boys and prove that she's just as rough and tumble as anyone of them put together. She rejects anything that might be perceived as "girly" (with the exception of drawing) in favor of wrestling, shooting, spitting and generally unladylike activities. Her favorite animals are dogs because like her, they're filled with boundless energy. It's hard to get the young woman to sit in one place for more than a couple of hours, and she'll be wiggling and squirming in her seat the whole time. She's almost constantly chewing something, tobacco when she has it or pens when she doesn't.

The wild little thing has an innate distrust of authority, whether it be police, teachers, government officials or religious leaders and only listens to them begrudgingly. She'll follow instructions sure, but that doesn't mean she has to like it. This dislike of high powers is part of the reason she joined Trinidad Academy and became a vigilante in the first place. Noble Arms users represent a sort of overbearing power ready to tread on the rest of the world, and she wants to serve as a sort of safeguard for those who lack the means to protect themselves from groups like the Hammer of Masters or even individual psychopaths with an Arm of some kind.

Despite her reservations about those who hold power, Ellie is fiercely patriotic. Her family immigrated to the United States when she was three years old, and she is very proud of her adoptive nation. This love now also applies to the states of Syria and Iraq where she willingly lays her life on the line to defend their peoples.

*Likes: Shooting, Hunting, Chewing Tobacco, Dogs, Drawing

*Dislikes: Cats, Hammer of Masters, Criminals, Disablers, Smoking, Arrogance, Her Full Name

Fears: The deep ocean, that she'll die before she can accomplish her goals.


Bio: Elena Vuković was born to Drevan and Adrijana Vuković in the city of Split, Croatia. The family consisted only of the three of them, although a German Shepherd joined them when Elena was two years old. She was by all accounts a normal child, babling incoherently and keeping her parents up with her incessant crying. They lived a comfortable life, her father was a lawyer and her mother a doctor so they were able to keep a full time nanny to tend to their child. She was a bit of a precocious child, saying her first word at only nine months. ("Puppy.")

When Elena was three years old the family dog was murdered by a Arms User that broke into her home. The German Shepherd leapt at the intruder in an attempt to protect his family by was knocked aside by a single blow. The burglar's fist shattered the poor dog's ribcage and sent him through a solid brick wall, killing him instantly. Elena screamed at the sight of her beloved companion's ugly demise and the Arms User went to shut her up, only to end up with a bullet from her father's revolver impeding itself in his arm. The burglar fled and no one else was hurt, but the scene would stay with Elena for the rest of her life.

For her parents, the incident was the final reason they had been looking for to move. The law firm Drevan worked for had shuttered its doors, leaving him without a job. Adrijana was fed up with the bureaucracy of the hospital she worked for,, having been passed over for promotion multiple times in favor of younger men with less experience. Both of them agreed that it was time to look for greener pastures and headed for the United States, specifically Denver, Colorado where Drevan had family that could help them settle in. So the family moved, and Elena would grow up as an American child.

As early as kindergarten Elena hung out with boys more than she did girls, preferring to roughhouse and throw around toy cars than play with dolls or watch movies about princesses. Her parents assumed it was just a phase but she kept it up, earning herself many scraped knees and bruised elbows from games of soccer and kickball. Elena became "Ellie", and more than one of her childhood friends had no idea she was a girl. She just preferred the company of boys, there was no particular reason to it. Ellie could curse and roughhouse with anyone of them, even picking up the habit of chewing tobacco at the age of fifteen just to prove that she was more of man than any of them. She was completely fine so her parents just accepted it with a collective shrug. It didn't bother them very much who she played with as long as she was safe.

It bothered them slightly more when at the age of ten she and her troop of friends dragged them out to see the holes she had punched into a brick wall using her suddenly discovered Noble Arms. Ellie threw herself into practicing with her weapons, spending entire summers blasting away at birds and cans on a relative's cattle ranch. It was a lot of fun sure, but some nights the image of her beloved dog bleeding and twitching would appear in front of her. She knew what Arms Users were capable of, and understood why some people wanted them regulated or even snuffed out. People that didn't have them stood no chance. They needed someone to protect them, and Ellie would be that person.

She did some research into schools and settled on Trinidad, simply because it was the cheapest. Her parents supported their daughter in her endeavor and gave her their blessing. Before she left for the Philippines Ellie took her citizenship test and passed with flying colors, a symbolic promise that she would return to her home when she was ready to keep its people safe. She did fine in her academic courses but where she excelled were her Arms specific classes. Emergency Response Course, Small Unit Tactics, Group Combat, she threw herself into all of them and made notes of every piece of information from them. Ellie's free time was spent reviewing these exhaustive notes and figureing out what was useful for her and what wasn't.

The young woman fought her way to rank 4 out of the entire school, passing with flying colors at the age of twenty. As soon as she was out she returned to her home country and rented a home in South Los Angeles. This was where Ellie Vuković became the Eagle, a vigilante who dedicated herself to keeping her community safe. For the first two years she wore a simple homemade mask and comfortable clothes, prioritizing ease of movement as she soared across the night sky. The Eagle was originally intended to be a symbol of what a person could do to improve their society. She distributed more blankets to the homeless and escorted more junkies to detox clinics than bad guys she brought in, and the few gas station hold-ups or carjackings she did intercept were solved with the least amount of force possible.

She truly believed that Arms Users had a duty to defend those who didn't, which meant she was drawn into conflict with the Hammer of Masters. The Eagle would drift silently through the night sky, eavesdropping on their conversations and staking out their safehouses before giving anonymous tips to the police. She fought a sort of shadow war against them for three years until it exploded into the public eye. A routine stakeout on an apartment suspected of being a stockpile of weapons ended in flashes of light and bursts of fire, Ellie had been spotted by the owner. He had raked through her thin jacket with his karambit Arm, nearly disemboweling her in the process. She managed to subdue him but was out of action for three weeks. Before hand the Eagle had been a local object of conversation but now she was known to the whole city. To her dismay the man who had almost killed her was let out on bail. Before two days had even passed he slit the the throat of a prominent activist who called for the disbandment of Arms Academies. Ellie's sacrifice had been for naught.

The next week was a flurry of police activity as a massive manhunt went underway for the killer. Doors were kicked in and family members questioned as the city and surrounding area were torn apart in the search. Many in the media were expressing doubt that he would ever been found. One week stretched into two and then three without a sign. And then finally they found him. He was hung from the top of the U.S. Bank Tower. Ellie had reinvented herself as the Violent Eagle, a woman who hunted down those that the law couldn't or wouldn't find. She traded in her wool mask and sweatshirts for a intimating black gas mask and combat boots, heavy duty body armor covered by a black leather jacket depicting an eagle with feathers of deep blue and brilliant green. In its talons it clutched a rat, a stand in for the Hammers, the Disablers, the mob, street gangs, rapists, arsonists and anyone who she deemed a threat to civilized life.

The Violent Eagle was a lightning rod for controversy, attracting praise for her actions as well as criticism. When she crawled back into her home in the early morning after a long night of running gun battles and torturing suspects for information she would read op-eds that called her an American hero before turning to one that called for her arrest. All sorts of labels were stuck to her. Deranged, heroic, fascist, noble, misguided, the last hope for human decency, she heard them all. She began to give interviews over burner phones or through junk emails on public computers. Every time she was asked what she called herself. She always had the same answer: a vigilante. Someone who tries to catch and punish criminals by themselves, without waiting for the police.

The Eagle hunted the hordes of rats in Los Angeles for ten long years, learning from experience and becoming even deadlier. Supposed criminals were found in broken piles at the bottom of bridges by police on patrol or bleeding to death in back alleys by sanitation workers. A case file was formed where detectives would studiously track her activities, chronicling each tally mark she notched up and compiling a list of dozens of people who could possibly be her. Each night she would venture out and return more jaded, her brash and outgoing personality replaced with cold professionalism that would turn to violent rage at the drop of a hat. No matter how many rats she exterminated there were always more, swarming and breeding in their own filth until the city would choke under their waste.

As she fought her own personal war in California the Middle East was burning. Ellie watched the Union of Arab Republic fall, followed by the Master's abomination of an empire. And the rest of the world was taking an interest, corporations and neo-colonial powers pledging to "liberate" the region. They would trample the real defenders of the region, the normal men and women who were fighting an uphill battle. She couldn't just stand by and watch, so she signed up with the Democratic Forces of Syria and Iraq. The Violent Eagle fit in with the choas of war, quickly rising to command a unit of 90 men and women. They specialized in hit and run attacks, Ellie opening her notes on small unit combat to lead her troops in skirmishes with the Al-Nursa front and the Islamic state. More importantly she watched Operation Symbiosis, waiting for the disparate parts to fall into infighting and exploitation of the local peoples. When it happened she would be ready.
*Current Goal: Crush the Hammer of Masters, slaughter the Disablers, burn the Al-Nursa and bleed the Islamic State.

*Extra:Her most prized possession is her leather jacket. She's never without it even in sweltering heat, wearing it over her more standard issue gear. When not wearing her gas mask she hides her identity with a bandanna so she can avoid capture in the event she returns home. Her hair is covered as a sign of respect for her comrades culture and customs.

Ishaq Al-Khawaja

Ishaq Al-Khawaja

"It's not the Holy Grail. Y-yes, I was born in Bethlehem... but that's just a coincidence. Important historical figures don't just come back from the dead."

Name: Ishaq Al-Khawaja

Appearance:

As pictured above, Ishaq is an older gentleman. With a bit more Greek and Semitic heritage than North African, he has lighter skin, made all the more paler due to his poor health. He is about 5'5" and is underweight, again, because of his health. Though he is capable of walking, he is often seen in a wheelchair, especially if he is recently recovering from use of his Noble Arm.

Age: 57

Nationality: Palestinian

Noble Arm Name & Appearance: Damush Shuhada (Blood of the Martyrs); Rank B

Noble Arm Abilities:

The Nation is Like One Body - Someone other than Ishaq can drink water from the cup, and become anointed. If the drinker dies, Ishaq vomits blood into the cup, and the drinker reappears next to Ishaq's side, physically restored to how they were the moment they drank from the cup. The amount of blood in the cup is proportional to the amount of blood that is drained from Ishaq's body, if the cup is 10% full, then 10% of Ishaq's blood is drained, even though the actual volumes differ greatly. Each resurrection drains 10% of Ishaq's blood. Ishaq becomes woozy if he's lost 20% of his blood, at 30% he is on the verge of losing consciousness, at 40% he's on death's door and going into shock. If he drops the cup and the contents spill, the effect ends and the drinker is no longer protected. Multiple people can drink from the cup, but the cost per resurrection is the same. Ishaq can be forced to continue to protect the drinker even after losing 40% of his blood if someone prevents the cup from spilling and ensures that the blood leaving his mouth enters the cup. Such a tactic may very well kill him.

Personality:

Weather-worn and contemplative, Ishaq knows that he will never live to see what he desires most; an end to the world's conflict. Still he strives to be a peacemaker, and sees himself as a bit of an ambassador, a mediator. To this end, he has studied various religions and languages, as well as ethics and philosophy in general, in an attempt to navigate the storm of ancient, modern, and novel mindsets and identities. He is soft-spoken and acquiescent, and often has difficulty speaking over people who are boisterous and adamant. He hopes that his tolerance and knowledge of people's beliefs and fears will allow him to negotiate successfully.

Likes:

• Spicy food
• Philosophy
• Classical music
• Children

Dislikes:

• Fanatics
• Ignorance
• Sour foods
• Dogs

Fears:

That the road to peace may compromise people's beliefs and souls.

Bio:

A Palestinian born in the Holy City of Bethlehem, Ishaq was raised living under the Israeli Occupation. Shell-shocked from random acts of violence from one-side, followed by disproportionate retaliation and forced evictions from the other, Ishaq and his family were displaced frequently from one occupied territory to another. Yet through it all, Ishaq was able to gain access to books, and in some instances, internet, and strove, as his parents directed him, to learn. He took to the sciences naturally, having a particular love for biology, and hoped to one day become a doctor, the kind of doctor who could save the lives that he saw lost on such a frequent basis. He wanted to be neutral, to aid Palestinian and Israeli alike, and prove that peace was possible. Yet as the world continued to destabilize, and Ishaq's Noble Arm manifested, he was dragged into terrorism. At first, his ability was used to allow suicide bombers 'second chances', allowing them to return after carrying out their ignoble deeds. But then, he became too valuable, and was reserved for protecting the lives of the leadership.His life was a whirlwind of pain and violence, and through no action of his own, Israel and Palestine united against greater external threats. The world that he had known had changed, and he had had no part in helping it along. So when Arms masters from both sides collaborated and planned on their defense he threw himself into the fray, offering his services, and receiving resources and knowledge in return. He was truly tested when Armageddon came, and the sky fell. He likes to believe that he had been integral in saving the human race, offering his blood so that more powerful Arms Masters could continue to attempt to destroy the meteor, even if they had to die multiple times to do it. Now he has joined Operation: Symbiosis, offering his services once again to a small force of Arms Masters in the hopes of using his remaining days to push towards lasting peace in the region.

Current Goal:

Ensure the success of Operation: Symbiosis, and finally bring lasting peace to the Middle East.

Military Rank: Captain (Medical)

"John Smith"(NPC)

Appearance:

John Smith

Name: John Smith

Age: Unknown
Nationality: Unknown, presumed British

Noble Arm Name & Appearance: The Web That Ensnares and the Fang That Poisons

The Web That Ensnares (Throwing Knives)

The Fang That Poisons (Claymore)

Noble Arm Abilities: Entrapment:The knife version of Smith's Arm (referred to as the Web from here on out) can be made so that instead of causing any physical trauma it begins to prey on the victim's fears and doubts. Over a period of time ranging from a few days to a few years the victim will progress through stages of self-doubt, paranoia, irrational fears, auditory and visual hallucinations and in extreme cases violent psychotic outbursts. If not regularly reapplied the victim will eventually lose these effects, although they will be burden with trauma for years afterwards.

Burdens to Bear: A wound from the Web will cause the victim to begin to ruminate on anything they may feel guilty over or have ever felt guilty over. These feelings will intensify over the period of an hour until they're crushing, no matter the severity of the event that caused them A victim recovered from one of Smith's attacks was found doubled over in a pool of their own vomit and tears. When questioned by first responders he would only repeat a single word: Tommy. Subsequent questioning of family revealed that Tommy was a common goldfish the victim had owned as a young boy only to accidentally knock over it's bowl, killing it. The victim was placed into the psychiatric ward after he attempted to throw himself in front of a passing car.

Forfeiture of Will:By far the most dangerous ability of the group, the claymore form (now referred to as the Fang) can usurp control of the victim's free will. For most this process takes seconds but those with stronger wills can fight it off for up to a minute. Once the mental struggle is over the victim is now unable to do anything except what Smith commands them to do. It's theorized that these commands come through a mental link established between him and the victim. It's also believed that he can only control a limited number of permanent "thralls" at a time, due to many of them being recovered later. As a rule, people without Arms are reduced to mindless husks in a near vegetative state, while Arms users suffer a temporary state of memory loss surrounding their actions while in that state.

It's important to note that the link is only stable if John is in the same geographic area as his thrall. (estimated to be 300 miles or so)

Wickedly Sharp: As of now, there is no known material that can't be damaged by Fang and Web. Other A Ranked NAs however can block it.

Personality: All we know about Doe is that he's a genius level intellect, soft-spoken man with an uncanny ability to stay five steps ahead of his pursuers. Police will close in on his location in Portland, Oregon only for him to reappear in a few days in Tokyo, Japan. The man is always impeccably dressed when he makes an appearance on the Internet or takes part in a terror attack, having never been seen without his suit, dress and tie so his appearance is clearly important to him. His stated goal is the establishment of a worldwide government run by Arms Users with non-Arms Users serving as a sort of slave cast.

*Likes:Unknown

*Dislikes:Unknown

Fears:Unknown

Bio: There is no knowledge on his place or date of birth or how he was raised. There are no pictures of anyone fitting his description and the name was found to be, unsurprisingly, a pseudonym. It's presumed that he's an Englishman due to his posh accent but that could very well be nothing more than an affectation.

*Current Goal: Establish the nation of Arms users

Military Rank: Leads the Hammer of Masters

[Bob the Grunt]

CPT Robert Liege

Appearance:

Name: Robert Liege

Age: 27

Nationality: United States

Noble Arm Name & Appearance: Gamma Gerät



Noble Arm Abilities:

Fire For Effect - The the Noble Arm "Gamma Gerät" is the magical embodiment of a heavy siege howitzer produced by the Imperial German Army before WW1. Referred to as "Big Bertha", this weapon would play a key role in reducing the fortresses of Liege and Maubeuge during the opening weeks of the Great War. Technically Robert does not "summon" the entire 170 ton howitzer but rather has the ability to materialize the artillery shells themselves, already fired and in flight on a predetermined trajectory. As the real life weapon was one of the most powerful artillery guns ever produced, its effects are naturally devastating, with the 420mm shells capable of blowing through metal and reinforced concrete whilst leveling city blocks.

That said, the weapon is only magical to the degree that the ordinance itself is created from nothing. Once fired, the shells and their effects are otherwise "mundane" having no magical effects beyond the wonders of trinitrotoluene and ammonium nitrate. For obvious reasons the Gamma Gerät is an ability best used against enemies at long range, and close range use would incur the risk of blowing up oneself or allies. The type of ordinance, fuse, and initial trajectory are controlled mentally. As with regular artillery, effective indirect fire relies on communication and cooperation with the forward observers and fire direction center.

Personality: Cynical and critical, Captain Liege expects the worst out of every situation and generally displays the bare minimum of enthusiasm. For instance, he has little faith at all in the mission of Operation Symbiosis expecting the whole thing to collapse upon its good intentions in the long run. Paradoxically, he is nevertheless committed fully to accomplishing whatever mission is given to him, and will do so with a devotion to practicality over all other concerns.

*Likes: 4 day passes

*Dislikes: uniform inspections

Fears: Waking up late to first formation

Bio: Robert Liege has grown jaded after 9 years in the military, regarding its idealistic image and purpose as propaganda for public consumption. Although often remarking that he can't wait to get out, the truth is that, having enlisted straight out of high school, Robert has no idea how to live outside the military and so always re-upped and eventually went to Officer Candidate School.

The power of the "Noble Arms" emerged comparatively late in life, while he was in his early twenties. Once this was discovered, the Army logically moved Robert from infantry to artillery. Being a "grunt" was a source of personal pride, and so the switch remains a cause of some resentment.

Having grown up most his life as a "mundane" individual of typical middle class background, being an "Arms Master" is still not a huge part of his self identity. He is completely dispassionate with regard to the great social debate over the relationship between those with and without magical powers.

Captain Robert Liege is now the commander of Special Artillery Battery A (Field Artillery Battalion/1st Brigade). Whereas a typical artillery battery will include 6-8 howitzers, the Fires Section of Battery A is comprised solely of Captain Liege himself.

Appearance:

Amaterasu

Height: 6'5" Weight: 278 lbs

Name: "Amaterasu"
Age: Unknown

Nationality:Unknown
Noble Arm Name & Appearance:

Light

And

Heat

Noble Arm Abilities: Funeral Pyre:Using the sword form of her Noble Arm Amaterasu can cause a sudden burst of heat in a 50 foot diameter around her. Temperatures can reach past 2500°F, hot enough to melt steel. This attack leaves weapons inoperable and flesh literally melting off of bones.

Beam of Light: The spear form of her weapon can project a thin ray of intense light at a target, incinerating any object living or otherwise smaller than a house. Structures bigger than that will receive catastrophic damage and often crumble moments later due to support structures suddenly disintegrating.

Heat Death: Her most dangerous attack by far, Amaterasu can use either form of her Noble Arm to unleash an explosion of pure heat. Her body glows with heat (estimated at 5,000 K or so, not much less than the surface of the sun)before literally crumbling to ash. Anything with 22 miles of her will be instantly vaporized, past that buildings will catch fire and the water in living things bodies will boil until they burst up to a range of 200 miles away. Outside that living creatures will be susceptible to heat exhaustion and at risk of death by dehydration. Many that witness the event from a "safe" distance will be blinded. It's a combination of her other abilities except on a much larger scale.

Faster Than Light: Amaterasu can melt into a blur of light that moves faster than the eye can see for up to a minute. For long distance travel she can hit roughly 300 miles an hour. She has reflexes faster than any person recorded, having once been recorded catching two bullets fired from two feet away from her.

Personality:Amaterasu is loud, dangerous and incredibly violent. According to intelligence her nickname in the Hammer of Masters is "the Dragon" and it's easy to see why. Known for her attacks on banks and government buildings she has a penchant for taking hostages. Those without a Noble Arm are subjected to all manner of physical, mental and sexual abuse while in her grasp but Arms Users are treated quite well and often released to safety (unsurprising considering who she works for.) When given the chance she likes to toy with her victims before killing them, leaving the charred and mangled corpses of known Disablers or the Organization of Disarmament members on their family's doorsteps or hanging from lamposts. Recently she's taken a liking to the so-called "Colombian Necktie", multiple bodies being found with their throats slit and tongues pulled through the wounds in the aftermath of her attacks.

While presumed to be an adult Amaterasu acts and talks like a girl much younger than her. She's only ever been seen in a schoolgirl's uniform and her mask, tugging on the ribbons in her hair while giggling cutely. This makes that much more horrifying to witness when she snaps into one of her violent rages seemingly at random. It theorized she feels some sort of thrill from violent acts due to witness reports. She's been described as "shuddering, laughing uncontrollably, giggling to herself while rocking back and forth, and whispering gentle words into the poor bastard's ear while she did it." Other survivors have claimed that she's overcome by a sort of sexual high when committing such heinous acts. Whether it's a sexual thrill or no, she certainly enjoys it.

*Likes: Unknown

*Dislikes: Unknown

Fears:Unknown

Bio: Nothing is known about her origins. Amaterasu and her brother simply appeared to the world alongside their leader one day, fully formed and ready to kill.

*Current Goal: Cause havoc, make the world fear her.

Axel Coltinger

Name: Axel Coltinger

Age: 26

Nationality: American

Noble Arm Name & Appearance: Nightingale’s Shadow - Rank C?


Noble Arm Abilities:
On Soaring Wings
This is a passive ability that increases Axel’s Speed, Agility, and eyesight. With this ability, Axel can reach a maximum speed of 50 Mph. His eyesight is also drastically increased to such lengths that Axel can read a newspaper heading from 3000 feet away.

Soul of the Nightingale
This is another passive ability that grants Axel a powerful regenerative ability. Small cuts and bruises are healed within a few seconds. Significant injuries, such as bullet holes or stab wounds, take several minutes to heal. Large gashes and potential mortal wounds are healed in a matter of hours. Lost limbs, save for the head, regrow in several days time. Note that this is not a perfect way to stave off death. Any damage severe enough can cause Axel to die before his body has a chance to regenerate. Damage to the brain or sudden beheading is a good example.

Tailwind String
Arrows notched into the string of Nightingale’s Shadow gain more speed and power as the bowstring is held back. The maximum distance and time required for a fully powered arrow is 1 minute. After one minute, the released arrow can travel a maximum of 1 mile with no loss of force or speed.

Quiver of a Feather
The Quiver of Nightingale’s Shadow constantly restocks itself with an assortment of arrows. There are currently 4 slots for arrows each one able to hold a different amount of the arrows designated to their respective slots. The four arrows are Standard, Exploding, Hope, and Lament arrows.

Standard Arrows
The most common arrow fire from the bow. These arrows sport a silver shaft and white feathers. These arrows are wickedly sharp and can pierce through most types of worn armour. Axel can hold a maximum of 20 of these arrows. A standard arrow is formed once every 15 seconds.

Exploding Arrows
Thes arrowheads of this light blue arrow are highly unstable and will explode on contact after being fired from Nightingale’s Shadow. The intensity of the explosion is comparable to an average grenade. Axel can hold a maximum of 15 of these arrows. An exploding arrow is formed once every 1 minute.

Hope Arrows
While Axel’s regenerative abilities are inactive, the excess healing funnels into his quiver, generating golden arrows. These arrows when fired become ethereal arrows of golden light passing through everything in a straight line until it hits a living creature. Any living creature hit with one of these arrows is temporarily bestowed a condensed version of Axel’s regeneration ability. The effect only lasts a few seconds, but targets of this ability can often heal most major wounds. Axel can hold a maximum of 10 these arrows at a time. The rate of creation is 1 arrow every 30 minutes.

Lament Arrows
This is the most sinister arrow in Axel’s arsenal. These arrows are created from all of the wounds Axel takes over the course of his life. As Axel’s wounds heal, Nightingale’s Shadow takes all of the pain from the wound and manifests it into a physical weapon. When this black arrow is fired, it turns into an ethereal streak of black energy that passes through everything until it hits a living creature. When a living creature is hit by a Lament Arrow, all of the creatures prior wounds over the last 2 year reopen and agitate. Every cut, scrape, bruise, and broken bone resurfaces into full effect. Axel can carry a maximum of 5 of these arrows. Unlike other arrows that generate passively, Lament arrows only form after a set amount of regenerative healing has reached. For every 1 Lament Arrow, Axel must undergo a cumulative 24 hours of regenerative healing.

Nightingale's Song
Axel can temporarily sacrifice half of his current regenerative properties to instantly produce 10 Hope arrows. Every time he uses this ability his regenerative ability becomes half as effective for 24 hours. He can use this ability a max of 3 times before his regenerative ability cannot produce enough healing to create Hope Arrows.

Personality: A talented medic and hunter, Axel has a laissez-faire attitude on life. With a lack of ambition, he completes tasks given to him with the minimum amount of effort needed and with the laziest of attitudes. He only really comes alive when he is surrounded by friends, needs to medically work on someone, or gets to put his hunting skills to good use. When it comes to any of those 3 things, the lazy Axel grows into an ambitious and driven man, ready to succeed.

*Likes: Hunting, Medicine, Bird Watching, and Archery

*Dislikes: Seafood and Hard Labor

Fears: Being forgotten and being left alone.

Bio: Axel was raised by a single father, who was a hunter. His father often took him out on hunts and taught Axel how to survive in the wilds. One day his father was wounded by a wild boar and Axel spent three days by his dying father’s side. After his father’s death, Axel was sent to an orphanage. It was there that he took an interest in medicine and how to heal the human body. He absorbed as much as he could and had decided he was going to practice medicine. That was until he materialized his Noble Arm at the age of 15. The orphanage sent him off to go study at a nearby arms academy. After which, he was recruited into the army. Despite his attitude towards it all, he fared well within the military. After some minor operations that were a success and a few promotions, he was recommended for Operation Symbiosis.

Callie Lidmann

Appearance:

Name: Caroline ‘Callie’ Lidmann
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Bisexual, as far as she is able to tell.
Height: 165 cm
Weight: 63 kg
Age: 23

Nationality: British

Noble Arm Name & Appearance:

‘Charter’

Noble Arm Abilities:
Leaguespanner: Wielding Charter allows Callie to realign the fabric of the universe to join one space to another, effectively creating a two-way portal. She may only do this between places that she is able to visualise. Whenever she does so, Callie must anchor each end of the portal to an object in space in relation to which they will remain static; she frequently uses the ground, the Earth as a whole or some part of her body for this purpose. Creating a connection takes no energy but keeping it open does; the larger the portal is the more energy it will consume from Callie until she releases it. Distance, on the other hand, has no bearing on the energy required.
Sight Unbounded: Charter is far more capable than a spyglass of its apparent age or, indeed, any spyglass at all has any right to be: it has the potential for near-infinite magnification. Whereas Callie can by now manage this intuitively, anyone else attempting to do so would find the spyglass insanely sensitive to any adjustment. She also sometimes finds herself drawn to things are pertinent to her and her goals when seeing them through Charter, whether she knows how they are important or not.

Personality: Callie is determined and unrelenting by nature. Unlike many of this archetype, however, she doesn’t naturally chafe against authority to any great extent; she instead demands that she be accomplishing something in every waking moment, set by others or, if they do not, by herself. If that is achieved, she is an invaluable asset to any team – focussed, personable, unfailingly, effortlessly energetic and downright inspiring. If not, she can be impersonal, quick to anger and generally utterly horrible to be around. She is, needless to say, a little polarising.
Likes: Achieving short-term goals, feeling capable, learning, using her Noble Arm, dogs, Ribena.
Dislikes: Vagueness, duplicity and secrets among friends and teammates, purely utilitarian goods, cats, alcohol.
Fears: Being powerless, causing harm to those she cares about.

Bio:

Callie Lidmann never knew her mother, who died in a terrorist attack caused by an Arms Master under the banner of a splinter faction of the IRA only a month after her birth, and instead grew up with her father, a designer of cameras used for aerial archaeology, and her stepmother, a military veteran, who married when she had just turned two. Her early life was uncomplicated and carefree and she, like most children, developed a profound curiosity about the world around her. Unlike most children, that curiosity never really went away; she dove into books and the internet, ran her own science experiments in the garden and begged her parents to take her to museums and art galleries where most of her peers wanted to go to theme parks and the cinema.

By her teenage years, Callie’s path seemed to be set; she was receiving ‘A*’s and ‘A’s across the board in school and had her heart set on going into academia, even if she wasn’t entirely sure where yet. For many people in that situation, receiving a Noble Arm would change that entirely – and yet for Callie, summoning Charter for the first time while on a walk in the hills outside her home only kicked her plans into high gear. Perceiving the Arm’s abilities as obvious symbolism for her identity, she invested days in theory-crafting and experimenting to see just what she could do with it. Only a few weeks after she first manifested it, she was in contact with a major energy company to use her portal to generate electricity through perpetual motion; that, she thought with significant glee, would make her more than enough money to pursue education for as long as she wanted while simultaneously providing clean power for thousands. With this as her goal, Callie pressed on with school and, with her A-levels under her belt, began her preparations for university.

Unfortunately, this was the moment at which the energy company she’d been in contact with cancelled the deal. Despite having had extensive talks and already done a small interest piece for the BBC, the company in question was informed late by its lawyers that any accident resulting from Callie’s powers would leave it open to severe legal ramifications. The only way to alleviate this would be to have Callie herself in the building with the portal for every second that it was active, watching for anything to go wrong so she could dismiss it; that not being an option for somebody in full time education, the project was canned. Her dad and stepmum stepped in to fill the gap that this and the lack of a student loan had created – and ultimately succeeded – but the psychological damage was already done; Callie, having never really failed at anything on this scale before, was thrown totally off balance, her once-unshakeable motivation declining and her work’s quality fading with it.

To this difficulty her stepmother offered an unconventional solution: join the military, the one place where you weren’t allowed to be demotivated. She’d honestly been a little concerned about Callie’s mental fortitude for several years and, knowing and exceedingly grateful for what service had done for her, she thought that her stepdaughter might benefit from something similar. There was extensive back and forth in the Lidmann household over that year’s course but, in the end, Callie was becoming more and more frustrated with herself and her lack of success and it became clear that, even if she could probably pull herself through university, she likely wasn’t going to enjoy or gain much from doing it.

As such, Callie found herself dropping out at the end of her first year at university and instead signing on as a sapper in the Corps of Royal Engineers, taking communications as her trade. She expected that she’d complete her four years of service and, her mind fortified, return to civilian life. Instead, she found herself far more fulfilled than anyone close to her could have predicted. Her choice of heading into the Engineers was in part based on her quickness of mind, in part because it had developed a strong Arms Masters community, and both of those certainly panned out well; more than that, though, with her actions planned out for her, she could commit to doing in a way that she never really had before while still being able to bring her mind to bear within that and possessing enough free time for unstructured thought when she needed a break from the relentlessness of it all.

It was thrilling – thrilling to the extent that, after spending time with the ISAF in Afghanistan, Callie decided to stay on with the military. She was in the middle of debating whether to try for a leadership position or apply for the Special Reconnaissance Regiment when she was offered a place in Operation: Symbiosis. She took it. Quickly.

Current Goal: Aid the cause of and ingratiate herself with the members of Operation: Symbiosis.

Military Rank: Formerly Sapper, as of now undetermined.

Oscar

Appearance

Name: Oscar Hughes
Age: 26
Height: 1.82m
Weight: 64kg
Orientation: Straight
Nationality: American
Alignment: Disablers

Personality: Calm and collected, Oscar doesn’t let many things faze him. He’s very observant and likes to think before acting, not wanting to risk entering a fight that he has little to no chance to win, making prone to running away if things aren’t looking favorable for him, making him be considered somewhat of a coward by other members of the Disablers. Still, he’s as ruthless as the rest of its members, not above using any dirty tactic and underhanded trick at his disposal in order to increase his chances of winning against the Arm Masters.

Oscar has no grudge towards Arm Masters nor considers them monsters, in fact, he has some fascination towards them and their unnatural abilities. There’s a certain sense of satisfaction when you take down someone who can defy any natural law, and see that they’re neither gods or devils and that in a way you’re above them. Saying that he’s definitely curious about how and why Arm Masters exist and hopes to find an answer here in the middle east, where the conflict has attracted all kinds of Arm Masters and humans from around the world.

Likes: Hunting down someone, shooting, bomb-making.

Dislikes: Operation Symbiosis messing up his plans. The Hammer of Masters and other Arm Masters who think too highly of themselves, keeping him in the dark about something.

Fears: Dying without achieving his objective.

Current Goal: Taking out an A rank Arms Master. To that end, he’s looking for a way to access one of the many Arm Master databases for information on their abilities and investigate the origins of Arm Masters before planning anything concrete.

Main Weapon: Kar98k Bolt-action rifle. Lighter, easier to assemble and less prone to breaking than most semi-automatic rifles, which can be the difference between life and death when fighting against someone who can defy nature’s laws effortlessly.

Military Rank: Ensign

Bio: Oscar joined the ranks of the Disablers at the age of 24 as one of the many western volunteers, though his motives diverged a little from his comrades. Back in America One of Oscar's biggest interests aside from shooting was making explosives. Beginning with making Chlorine bombs for fun as a kid and expanding into bigger and more dangerous types as he grew up, however he very well knew that getting materials was not only hard, but the looming threat of the government finding out and imprisoning him didn't sit very well with him, especially since even using them in the middle of nowhere was just a temporary measure until someone realized what was he doing.

That's when he received his job offer in the form of a viral video. Calling for anyone willing to defend humanity from demons to join their crusade. Thinking about joining them was pure madness, at first glance, there was little to no practical reason for him to consider becoming a terrorist and it's not like he didn't think their message was anything more than hyperbole meant to rile people up. Yet the idea still lingered in his mind, he wanted to see how much damage his bomb could do in the battlefield, to see how he could fare against an Arms Master, could he be able to take one of them down by himself?. It would take many sleepless nights before he took his decision. During the two years he has been working for the Disablers he has learned how strong humans can be with the right tools, how even strong Arm Masters can crack if the deck is sufficiently stacked against them and how terrifying some of those Arm Masters can be when they're pushed to their absolute limits.

The Spear Maiden

"Tch, how bothersome.. "

Name: Carmilla Arde

Age: 25

Nationality: British

Noble Arm Name & Appearance:

Earthslayer - Meteor Spear

Type: Metal/Curse
Rank: C+

-A noble arm weapon forge from a fallen meteorite. its high-grade metal seems durable enough to withstand even the toughest of attacks. Its true strength lies generating hexes and inflicting abnormalities to one's sanity due to its unexplained substance.

Noble Arm Abilities:

Conqueror's Aura - Lesser men would not dare to approach the Spear Maiden, let alone stand too close in her presence. The Earthslayer emits a strange aura that makes its user more intimidating than it seems, Inducing their fear to a tenfold to those who directly stare at the weapon or its user. Only the feeble minded and the weak-willed will undergo from this strange ordeal, causing them to experience paranoia and hallucination, chipping away their sense of rationality due to the spear's terror effect.

Curse of the Wounded - Whenever Earthslayer draws blood or inflict damage to its target, Its wounds become severely permanent and can't be healed due to some curse imbued by the spear itself. Unless of course, a C+ or higher rank Noble Arm healing effect is applied to the injured part, perhaps only then the spear's curse can be lifted.

Repulse Shield - with a weave of Camilla's cursed spear, the Earthslayer creates a magical ring of protection that nullifies any outside projectile attacks from where she stands and can even withstand rocket strikes to an extent.

Magnetize Weapon (Recall) - A simple trick, retrieving one's own weapon from a distance and into the user's grasp once again. Carmilla is forever tethered by her spear as a part of its curse.

Avent Execution(Impalement) - Carmilla's ace in the hole. A powerful curse laid upon the land, planting her noble arms into the ground, calling upon a great upheaval of the earth to her will. Upon which, dozens of metal spears will sprout beneath where her enemy stand, poor imitations of her Noble arms, Impaling foes left and right like human kebabs on a stick. The scale of this effect depends on much Carmilla is willing to commit her energy in producing a number of spear imitations, overdoing it and she could end up suffering from some serious downtime fatigue or worst.<?>

*Likes: Service, An Honorable Duel, Chivalry, Anything sweet (especially Blueberry Cheesecake)

*Dislikes: Braggarts, Classless people, those who talks shit about the Queen

Fears: Misplacing her stuff, compromising her mission.

Bio:: The Queen's lapdog. Great Britain's double agent. In loyal service of the Prime Minister's secret task force, Carmilla has one crucial assignment handed to her: to infiltrate and gain much information about the Hammers.

Fortunately enough, none was the wiser as she was accepted relatively easy and is currently part of their mid ranks due to her remarkable Cursed Noble Arm, combining it with her unique fighting style, She became one of the most notable members of the group.

Being part of an extremist organization, Carmilla has to endure the sheer amount of killings and inhumane means of those who stand in the Hammer's way. A bitter pill she has to swallow if she wants to keep this act.

Her background is unknown due to her records being wiped clean as a part of the settlement with her country. Altho, one can't deny that her radiant look is a dead giveaway that she descends from a wealthy lineage.

*Current Goal: not to compromise her mission.

Faction: Hammer of Masters

Kagami Shiroyama

Appearance: Tall and lanky with curly, unkempt black hair and light brown eyes with a faintly brown complexion

Height: 5'3"

Weight: 63 kg

Name: Kagami Shiroyama

Age: 25

Nationality: Japanese, affiliated with Operation: Symbiosis

Noble Arm Name & Appearance: From Dust, To Dust, a set of five barbed metal darts around 10cm long.

Noble Arm Abilities:

From Dust, To Dust allows Kagami to disable another Noble Arm for a theoretically unlimited amount of time by piercing them with it. It completely disables the pierced person's use of all their Noble Arms. Manual removal from the person is possible but very painful and dangerous due to the barbs on the darts. Kagami can recall the darts himself to allow them to disappear.

The main downside to this power is that it causes extreme physical strain on Kagami, causing him to feel heavier and heavier with each dart in use and, if sufficiently strong, the willpower of his victim. He's learned to deal with it to the point that he can still move with some agility with one or two darts in use. Anything above 3 darts; however, would almost completely immobilize him. 4 darts would cause him to black out in minutes with some internal injuries, waking up after a period of hours to days. 5 darts would be fatal in sustained use, eventually causing cardiac arrest and/or encephalitis and even if released in time, requiring a recovery period of days to months.

In order to deal with the physical strain, Kagami has been forced to severely reduce his body mass and use more than one dart sparingly.

Personality:

"Don't let anyone do what you can do yourself"
His lack of any actual ability other than that of disabling others and at a very high price required Kagami to get used to a lot of manual labor.
Extremely self-reliant, Kagami prefers doing his work himself. He proves to be extremely reliable and is able to take on entire jobs himself. Though he appreciates the existence of subordinates, he gives them only the simplest of tasks and expects his orders to be followed the same way he does his work - quickly, relentlessly and successfully.
Unfortunately, he hates working with others he views as inferior or inefficient (essentially, everyone who hasn't 'proved' themselves). In general, he disdains working with others and prefers taking on most tasks while having teammates harmlessly idle away from combat.

"I'll be what I'll be"
Kagami is thoroughly independent, ambitious and values his freedom. He believes in fairly receiving what one deserves according to the work they've done. He also believes that a person should be allowed to be as they wish, with minimal interference from the outside. Kagami also hates the idea of fitting in (in spite of having to do so most of his youth). He acknowledges that he will never fit in and accepts that, preferring to freelance than be bound to the ground.

In spite of seeming like a general solo jerk, Kagami is quite amiable. He has some friends and though he may not trust them with work, he at least feels safe in calling them "friends". If you can get on his good side, he'd be more than happy to open up.

He has; however, been notes to be very aggressive when dealing with opponents. Though not the type to order a direct assault, being frequently calm and composed, he is the type to slowly let an enemy bleed to death whether it be through his Arms or having his subordinates slice at them.

*Likes: People who share his interests, Superiors, Loyal subordinates

*Dislikes: Delays, Inefficiency, Nuisances, Cooperation

Fears: Failure

Bio: One thing a young Kagami never wanted anyone to know was the true origin of his family. Though in paper, they're Japanese. His grandparents were originally Filipino immigrants who naturalized and integrated into the country. A single piece of advice ran in the family - "We are Japanese, nothing more, nothing less". His grandparents had hated their homeland and chose to move to Japan in their youth to forget their homeland and chose the surname "Shiroyama". The family mantra came about when they realized they needed to fit into the local population, much, much more in order to be truly accepted as one of them.

As Kagami grew older, though he gained no love for his family's true origin, he felt the family policy was strangling him. His family worked very hard to cover up every bit of their foreign origins that he had to be very careful about what he said and what he did.

Meanwhile, in school, the young Kagami realized two truths. First, people were generally incompetent. Second, if you work hard enough towards a goal, you will achieve it. These two things he realized would continue to impact him for the rest of his life.

He also discovered the existence of his Arms sometime in middle school and kept it a secret from his family. Over the rest of his youth, he would realize the capabilities of his gift along with its weaknesses.

Later in life, he decided to go freelance and leave his family and adoptive homeland. He believed there was much more to see in the world, good or bad, he figured it'd still be worth seeing.
