Mirrorwater (A Mirror Locket)
Mirrorwater bring 6, 2-way mirrors with sharp ethereal blue rose-borders as the visual appeal of the mirrors, taking after rippling waters. The 7th mirror being the locket is the core, not only can it be worn by its heirloom but also ascertain its functions with no hindrance even when conveniently hidden in pockets, sleeves and wallet, etc. When the mirrors are shattered, they dissipate like blue dust and can be resummoned as long as the locket isn't stolen or exhausted from cooldowns.

Mirrorweave, Age of Kafagway
Dior reshapes any of his mirrors into weapon constructs, if not, he'll stand stationary and shoot a volley of cold beams, which at minimum has the output of a machine gun and the maximum output of multiple six barrelled shotguns in each mirror with explosive effects, enough to puncture defenses like metals, his maximum range is 60 meters.

Refraction, Baguio Mirrors
Refraction allows Dior to redirect incoming attacks from any Noble Arms at the cost of a mirror(s). If the attack is weak, no mirror is lost, if the attack is intermediate, the mirror cracks while multiple attacks in succession destroys a mirror or two. However, powerful attacks can destroy three mirrors at once and even immobilize Dior's Noble Arm.

Emulation, Made in China
Dior can store different ability themes of a Noble Arm, six at a time, exceeding said count, resets all of the themes he copied, every time. The ability themes he copied would be used in tandem to attribute to his Noble Arms temporarily, lasting for as long as his Noble Arm is active until disabled. Usually, he makes his own version of the fancied abilities he have into his arsenal. On the other hand, Dior has no control on which ability themes he comes across, the first six people his mirror shines upon are always the ones he mirrors.

Dior cannot copy what he don't understand.

Dior ain't having additional elements.

If he has to copy, he has to see it first.

He cannot copy NAs that also Copies.

He must copy from the Direct Owner.

He cannot outright copy, he has to reinvent it as his own.

Dior is the firstborn of Lakan. Jion De Dangal, an esteemed awardee stemming from the Order of Sikatuna for outstanding diplomatic relations between Spain, Philippines, America & Japan. By the extension and shadow of his father, the Lakan (Commanding Officer), Jion De Danggal, Dior and the rest of his family members are Maginoo aka Maharlikans, Nobleborns sorted into Politics and Medicine. This is just a distraction and a facade to the masses in the Philippines, the Dangal are actually a family of Assassins, hitmen for hire, with enough clout and fear in the Philippine Criminal Underworld across Baguio, Makati & Taguig.

Appearance:

Height & Weight: 6'0", 168 lbs

Name: Kaden "Kay" Ashford

Age: 18

Nationality: American

Noble Arm Name & Appearance:
Duality Blades, two Katanas that shift in color depending on their form: a soft blue for light and a deep crimson red for dark. They are connected by a spectral purple chain.

Noble Arm Ranking: B

B

Power: C (Dark: B ; Special Attack: A)
Speed: C (Light: A)
Range: C (Dark: B , Special Attack: B)
Persistence: C (Dark: B)
Precision: D
Potential: D

Noble Arm Type, Element, and Range: Melee, Light & Dark, close-to-mid range

Noble Arm Abilities:
The Duality Blades can change between three forms: Light, Dark, and Neutral/Equilibrium.
LIGHT:
Kaden's speed and power are enhanced, allowing him to attack quickly. The purple chain shatters and changes color to vibrant blue. The chain passes through Kaden but is solid to anyone else. He also can send minor beams of light out of the swords. They are weak and go about a 25m, but he can rapid fire them. They knock the target back a bit.
DARK:
Kaden's power and range increase, as a darker aura can extend the swords to an unnatural length. When he enters this, the chain shatters and is replaced by a light red chain. This chain acts like the blue chain. He can slam the swords onto the ground to make a shockwave that does moderate damage and goes in around a 75m radius. This needs to recharge for a bit, and makes his arms tired. He picks the targets of the blast. (This means he can only pick people he is aware exist/are fighting. THIS IS IMPORTANT!)
NEUTRAL:
Kaden has both active, one on each sword. his stats stay the same, but he gains the light beams and a weaker version of the shockwave. The chain stays purple and acts like the other chains. One neutral attack, or ten seconds in neutral, is required when switching between light and dark. The chain stays purple in this form, passing through Kaden. He also gains a new attack, but I'm going to make a dropdown for it.

Radiant Blast.

This attack is basically unusable unless under perfect conditions (EX: Holding the swords in front of you when you're about to get hit by an 18 wheeler on the highway). If the Shinogi-Ji's (the flat ends of a Katana) touch, A shockwave that has a 200m radius booms from them, and this damages everything and everyone within its radius. This includes the Kaden, but he will take half damage as the wielder. Most people can't survive this blast. Why not list this as an attack? That needs another dropdown about the way the Katana's work.

Anatomy of the Duality Blades

It's actually quite simple. Light and Dark are like the opposite of North and South on a magnet. They repel each other. You would have to have a minimum force of 425,824 Newtons (about 95729 lbs of force) to make them even have a minor tap. Although this is enough to trigger the blast, it is extremely difficult to pull off and may never happen again. This only applies for the Shinogi-Ji's of the blades, as any other part is perfectly fine.

Misc Abilities: Ambidextrous, pretty good strategist, knows MMA (Mixed Martial Arts), and is a great dancer (trained his footwork by dancing).
He speaks 3 different dialects of Arabic. (Levantine, Egyptian, and Modern Standard Arabic/MSA)

Personality: Kaden is kind, funny, and protective of people he cares about and works with often (or hopes to work with often). He can also be very over confident. He doesn't always seem all there, and is often caught daydreaming in his free time. His true desire is to upkeep his reputation, and this drives him to do otherwise stupid things.

*Likes: Comedy movies, video games, fighting, and competition.

*Dislikes: Being underestimated, losing, spiders (he's not scared, he just doesn't like 'em.)

Fears: Failing to protect his family, friends, and most of all, his ego.

Bio: Kaden was born in Arizona and stayed there most of his life. He came from a family of war refugees from syria and immersed himself in their culture. He loves his family, which consists of his parents, an older sister and a ten year old brother. His family and friends call him Kay or Kane.

Kaden can't remember a time when he did not have a sword of any type with him. He carried a wooden around for practice whenever he could, kept a different wooden one in his backpack, and practiced with a real katana at home. he devoted his life to swordsmanship, and hoped that he could become a master swordsman. When he got the Duality Blades, or Zole as he likes to call them, it hit home for him.

One incident changed the way he viewed the Duality Blades. His friend challenged him to run across an "empty" 8-lane highway in the desert. Almost to the end, he hears a horn. he stops and looks where it's coming from. by the time he turns, it was too late. He held out his hands, instinctively holding the blades like he always does when in danger. When the blades made contact with the truck, they bumped into each other, and this unleashed a blast of purple energy. Kaden was hospitalized in critical condition, and managed to survive without any scars. his friend and the trucker were not so lucky. The trucker died instantaneously, and his friend lost his left leg. He never seemed all there after that point.

*Current Goal: Survive, find somebody to love, and prove he isn't weak.

Military or Civilian Rank: Second Lieutenant

UPDATED: V2
IMPORTANT!
I do not have discord or any way to get discord at this moment. If this is something that can't be worked around, sorry for wasting your time. It is literally impossible at the moment. (I've tried. Oh how I've tried...)

Appearance:

5'2 | Secret~~

Name: María Guadalupe ("Lupe/Lupita") Chang

Age:18 (Real Age unknown, see below)

Nationality:Filipino/Chinese

Noble Arm Name & Appearance: The Black Lotus. It resembles a Sacred Lotus flower, except Black in Colour with an organometallic sheen.

Noble Arm Rank: B

B

Power:A
Speed:D
Range:50 meter radius (D)
Persistence:F
Precision:1 target or Indiscriminate (F)
Potential: C

Noble Arm Type, Element, and Range: Support| Healing (Rebirth) | Melee to Mid-Range

Noble Arm Abilities:
Rejuvenate(Heal) - Lupe can apply the dew-like substance the Lotus device creates to regenerate any kind of injury no matter how grave or dire, in mere seconds, as long as the target has either a heartbeat or brain activity. Acting quickly, it can even reverse decapitations and limb amputations (although in the former one has to secure the head and attach it to the body. Limbs Take up to a few minutes to completely grow the entire flesh if not reattached). Rejuvenate has also a hidden, second feature. Used on a target of choice if healthy, it can revert age up to their physical prime, thus making Lupe's real age difficult to assess.

Resurrect(Incarnate)- Lupe can bring someone dead back to life as long as 75% of their corpse is recovered in time within 24 hours. Using the Lotus this way completely drains it up of power temporalily and it may take as 7 days to recover. Bathing in sunlight can speed this cooldown to half. Lupe can also choose to Reincarnate, as in give a target a different body from scratch, but they would start as helpless babies. This ability activates in case of Lupe's death if it hasn't been used already. (So it's a difficult choice whether to keep an extra life or resurrect a teammate).

Field of Nirvana- Lupe can launch her Noble Arm high in the sky, which then proceeds to bathe a 50 m radius sphere with purifying light and create a sort of alternate reality. Within this sphere, which manifests as a tranquil pond full of blooming lotus flowers the rules of reality are rewritten in such a way that all Noble Arms with offensive or harmful effects are rendered ineffective. All wounds begin to radpidly close, and a feeling of peace and fulfilment begins to forcefully encroach all the minds who are trapped inside the field, making them impossible to feel anger or fight back unless they somehow have extreme mental fortitude (PC's get a free waive for the sake of play). Even if they can still cause aggression within the field, the field would prevent their NA to activate for such purposes. The field is also a straining magic that can only last for as long as 10 minutes, and it completely drains the Black Lotus like the Resurrection ability, requiring a 7 day cooldown. Lupe herself isn't immune from the effects, but she has strong mental fortitude and will fight back if attacked.

Misc Abilities: Lupe is surprisingly deft at martial arts, having been trained by a Bajiquan master in China, and further refining her craft with Muay Thai and Eskrima. She's surprisingly fast and a hard-hitter that can exploit a single moment, a single opening to wreck havok with her limbs or improvised weapons on an enemy's defenses. This kind of martial arts training is also to compliment her lack of Noble Arm offensive capabilities. Lupe is also a competent athlete, runner and climber, and her scouting capabilities and survival skills are not to scoff at.

Coming from an impoverished, pariah-like background, Lupe has street skills, and can swipe valuables and break locks with decent sleight of hand and deftness. She's also a good actress, able to swindle and convince people with smiles that might seem genuine.

Due to her background and journeys, Lupe is fluent in Spanish, Tagalog, English, Mandarin Chinese and Thai, which makes her a decent interpreter.

Personality: Lupe has a go-getter, shiny outward personality. She can strike quick conversation and friendships with many, and overall is quite heavy on warm gestures, perhaps a bit too touchy feely. She bats for both teams, and likes to meet new faces and people and talk about mundane lives. She also likes outdoor activities and parties. She has distrust towards authorities and hates bigotry and racism.

*Likes: Party Hardy. Outdoor excursions. Singing at Karaoke. Weird Foods.

*Dislikes: Party Poopers. Bigots (*Specially* Chinese and Japanese).Classism.

Fears:Returning to be just the daughter of a prostitute. Death by starvation.

Bio: Lupe was born in less than ideal circumstances, the daughter of an undisclosed Filipino Chinese and a pleasure worker. For that, she faced discrimination and bullying to no end in an impoverished situation. She did as best as she could, as she clung to life in the slums, not knowing if her next meal would be her last ever. When her mother disappeared and was found drowned after a particular heavy storm, she barely had anyone or anything to give her as she gave her funerary rites. Becoming an orphan, she braved the impossible odds and by hook and crook started a wild goose chase into China to find the other person whose existance she owed, her father, who had fled the country several years ago.

She wasn't very keen on finding help in China either, but somehow, it was worse. Being an immigrant on the run, she nearly despaired as she was going to die a nobody in a foreign land. However, she had luck. An old man, weathered by age, took her in as he took pity on her and taught her to...be less a street tramp and more a proper, upstanding individual. Martials arts redefined her ego and outlook in her life, and made her stand tall and proud.

But her journey had just started, and the old Master kindly told her to seek her own path, which she did. She eventually gave up on finding her father, and during the process, she managed to grab an odd-looking but extremely useful for healing Noble Arm: The black lotus. Fixing the scars and blemishes to make herself presentable and a face worth of being shown in media she quickly surfaced as some sort of "fighting idol celebrity".

It was then when people caught wind of her potential and drafted her into the war effort. Lupe was surprisingly compliant. Helping others to fight nonsense and oppression and fix the worlds' problems little by little was something she could get along with. Plus the salary was a nice steady income.

*Current Goal: Help the world become a brighter and better place so girls like her won't have a hard time.

Military or Civilian Rank:Private, freshly recruited.
