Name: Ethan Colbert Age: 15 Gender: Male Weapon Partner: Fi Personality: Ethan is a timid pacifist at heart; he hates violence of any kind, and the sight of someone bleeding spooks him a little. If it were up to him, every conflict would be resolved through peaceful negotiation, with no one so much as raising their voice. Oh, and maybe they would have some snacks too. All in all, Ethan is a very peaceful boy
...Unless you make him angry...
While it's not easy to do, he does have his buttons. Unlike most people; Ethan's rage is not an all consuming inferno, rather it is akin to the cold void of space. When in this state he has no mercy for those who ticked him off, and he will ensure that they suffer for pissing him off. This isn't a separate personality, as Ethan is very much aware of what he's done when like this, and says that it still feels like he's in control. Even though it can seem like a different person. History: Ethan lived a relatively normal life. He discovered his love for cooking at a young age, and begun studying it in order to make a living through it. His parents both supported his decision wholeheartedly, and even taught him everything they could...however it couldn't last. Ethan also had natural talent at Soul Detection, having also discovered it at a young age. By the time a DWMA recruiter found him, he was arguably a master of the technique. A bit too excited at having found such raw talent, the recruiter attempted to...well...recruit Ethan for DWMA, with a bit too much enthusiasm. Ethan was overwhelmed by the woman's excitement, and was unintentionally cowed into signing up for the school. Soul Resonance Technique: Megaton Crush Soul Detection Skill Level: I am a master at it. Flaws: Normal!Ethan; not good at fighting, easily intimidated. Angry!Ethan; overly aggressive.
WEAPON
Name: Fi Age: 15 Gender: Male Meister Partner: Ethan Colbert Personality: Fi is a very friendly and outgoing little mutant bunny. He loves warm hugs, carrots, napping, carrots, having his ears scratched, and warm hugs. His transformation into a Demon Weapon has made him a sapient creature. In fact, he's smarter then most humans, with an IQ of 193. That said, he never acts as smart as he is; as he is really more of a goofball at heart. His favorite subject in school is philosophy, as he finds the study of abstract things to be fascinating. History: Fi was born an ordinary rabbit, and lived his early life like most rabbits do. Until one day when he was taken by a Witch to be used in experiments. Said Witch was studying Demon Weapons, and these studies left Fi with an altered body that was also a Demon Weapon, as well as enhanced intelligence. One day, Fi was able to escape from her lair, and found his way to Death City. While there, he was found by the faculty. While communication with them initially proved to be difficult (since his vocal cords weren't human like, and the closest thing to a word he could say was 'Fi'), it was soon discovered that people who had mastered Soul Detection could understand him. Once they had someone to translate, an offer was made to Fi; join the school and get free food. Fi signed up in a heartbeat Soul Resonance Technique: Megaton Crush (doubles the size of his weapon form. It boosts the forces of impact by sending pules of soul energy into whatever it strikes for extra damage) Flaws: Tends to over think things, can be easily distracted by shiny things.
Personality: Corvus is a very...abrasive person. He has a tendency to be blunt about what he thinks and won't hold back in his judgment and does what he thinks is right in those situations. This mostly is a way for him to keep people at a distance however he is quite the gentleman once you get to know him if you can bypass this rough spot. He does have a quirky side but with his rather rough outer shell it tends to look forced rather than genuine. However despite this he does care deeply about his weapon who he calls his “brother” and this can be seen in their interactions together. Once someone becomes friends with him he will become loyal and protective and has a tendency to want to do something for them to make up for his past mistakes. He is easily angered and will challenge people to a fight depending on what started it in the first place. The weirdest thing about him that completely breaks away from his personality is his love for.....
He almost has what many call a fan-girl moment. This however he tries to hide around people he doesn't know but may from time to time show it even if Sulley harasses him intensely for it...Which usually ends in him chasing him down.
Combat wise he has a different persona all together. It appears more playful than anything else however it is not. He is quite serious when he fights and maintains a certain code of conduct. His motions are fluent and precise for his age but he is not perfect. He will still make mistakes in battle, especially if he goes berserk. His speed and power in the attacks will increase however the attacks are usually much more on the primal side and wind up directed to the nearest person since he no longer thinks. It takes a lot of effort for Sulley to bring him down from this and anyone caught in the wake will be in trouble.
History:
Soul Resonance Technique:
This blade takes on this form as shown; slightly bigger but without gaining the added weight. It absorbs the attacks that comes its way before redirecting it at double the strength. 10 Strikes is his limit leaving a final amped strike as a reserve in order to build up the power again or one massive attack that will drain the energy from the blade before having to build up the absorption again. This however in general is hard to do since Corvus is the main cause of their soul resonance to almost impossible to do.
Soul Detection Skill Level: “WHAT THE HELL IS SOUL DETECTION!? ARE YOU TOYING WITH ME!?”
Flaws: He has an extremely hard time resonating with his partner Sulley due to his quick-to-flare temper and his arrogance to add to this, he has a bit of a blood-lust if fighting more than one individual or kishin. Oh.....He is also OCD but not to the extent that Kid is as far as symmetry goes.
Weapon-
Name: Sulley
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Height: 6'3"
Appearance:
Weapon Appearance:
Meister Partner: sigh Corvus
Personality: He is the more level-headed one of the two. He brings Corvus back to reality and keeps him in check by reminding him that “You need to be more people-friendly”. He is usually the conversation starter between the both of them and will “translate” what Corvus will say due to his attitude. He is quite the social-butterfly and enjoys making new friends.
He is on the same level as Corvus when it comes to combat. He retains a level head and tries to stay on the same frequency as Corvus unless someone mocks him or whatever to anger him.

It absorbs the attacks that comes its way before redirecting it at double the strength. 10 Strikes is his limit leaving a final amped strike as a reserve in order to build up the power again or one massive attack that will drain the energy from the blade before having to build up the absorption again. This however in general is hard to do since Corvus is the main cause of their soul resonance to almost impossible to do.
Flaws: Due to his trouble with Corvus, he hasn't fully grasped the concept of soul resonance. He also has a tendency to poke fun at Corvus to the point that they will get into physical altercations with each other. Another thing deals with his eyes. They are a bit like a kishin's in taking on their dark crimson slits but this is due to a genetic mutation in his own family pool.
Personality: Winston is quite friendly and fairly studious too. He enjoys the companies of others and always sticks up for his friends. He despises bullying, and whenever someone is getting bullied he will step in, even though he will come off more hurt. Winston will usually be the instigator of conversations, and loves to listen than talk more. He likes to think he gives sage advice sometimes, although he will never admit when he's actually helped someone. He's actually quite self-doubtful, not sure whether or not he's strong enough.
History: Winston has always been loved by his mother, a single parent. She gave him everything a child needed and managed somehow to balance discipline with cherish too. It was quite a surprise when she found out her son wanted to become a Meister. Nonetheless, she encouraged him, spurning him on with the story of his father. Winston has never met his father, but he was known as a great Meister, fighting off Kishin with his equally mighty mace! It was even more of a surprise that, before he joined the DWMA, Winston managed to get into a fight at school. It was in fact, against someone who was bullying his friend, and not him. This trait has carried on with him. When he met Edge, it was... weird at first. Edge was a lot different to him, a lot quieter and shy unlike Winston, but his voice was full of confidence and energy, and has motivated Winston to push further more times than Winston could count. As partners, they have developed and strive to get stronger everyday, together.
Soul Resonance Technique: Saw Blade Slash- The blade of the axe revs up, kind of like a metal cutting saw. With a swing, the axe fires a disc of Soul Energy, that spins around like a saw blade through the air.
Soul Detection Skill Level: He's not very good at it at all. He can barely detect a wavelength.
Flaws: Self-doubtful and can step up a bit too much.
Weapon- Name: Edge Kuma
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Appearance:
Weapon Appearance:
Meister Partner: Winston Carter
Personality: Edge is... kinda fickle in comparison to Winston. Edge Kuma is very quiet, and barely speaks up. However, when he says something, it's at the right time, the right thing, and for the right reason. Edge communicates a lot more with his Meister in battle, but outside, he's a lot different. Because of this, Edge is kind of mysterious too. Not even Winston knows lots about him. Instead of socialising, he likes to keep his head in a book, or listen to music with his earphones. Edge doesn't hate anyone, he just doesn't like talking. It's awkward sometimes, and unnecessary to him. Basically he's a huge introvert.
History: Edge's history has been kinda rough in comparison to Winston's. Edge lived in a two room apartment, and just enough to get by, even with his three sisters. Edge wanted a better life, one he could provide for his family. When he discovered he was a weapon, his mind was already made up. He was going to find a partner, and become a legendary Death Scythe. He could provide his whole family a better life, and even give himself a little something too. When he met Winston, it was... weird at first. Winston was a lot different to Edge. He liked talking, and always had an opinion on something. However, this positive energy has made Edge come out of his shell a little and he can appreciate friends more. As partners, they have developed and strive to become stronger everyday, together.
Soul Resonance Technique: Saw Blade Slash
Flaws: Extremely introverted. Not very trustful either, apart from close friends.
Weapon Partner: Helena Dragic Personality: Since he was young Claus has trained to be a meister and sees it as almost an insult that he has to partake in classes with students who have a lower skill level than himself. However he is blind to his own flaws, while able to harmonize with any weapon in the class none have willingly partnered with him because of his attitude of not trusting others to help him. His hard headedness makes him never back down from a fight may very well get him killed someday unless he learns there is a right time to step back and accept help. History: Baumhauer comes from a family with a long history of being Meisters, almost able to trace their lineage back to the eight warlords though much of their family records have been lost with time. From a very young age Claus has been taught under his grandfather's guidance, learning about the history of his family and at the age of 10 started combat training. He was taught sword play, how to control his soul wavelength and sense/read the souls of others. While he was never a natural at this he has through hard work, practice, and determination mastered the art, and considers himself at a level much higher than his peers. Upon acceptance into the DWMA he demanded that he be accelerated into a higher class, thinking it a waste of time to start in the lower ranks but he was denied, told that is he wanted to become a Meister he would have to go at the pace laid out before him. Reluctantly Claus accepted these terms. His Weapon partner is Lena Dragic, the Singing Warblade, be is one of the few with the ability to match her erratic soul wavelengths and was forced to team up with her on the account of no other weapons wanting to be his partner. Soul Resonance Technique:Soul Rend Overdrive- When Claus manages to match his soul's wavelength with Lena's he is able to put her weapon form into a state of overdrive. When this happens her blade overheats and spits fire from her exhaust (See weapon picture below). During this short period of time her attacks can burn enemies, setting them on fire from contact, radiating intense heat, and her chain blades spin into a crimson blur, able to cut through almost anything with impossible ease. When finished with the state it should be noted that Lena need time to cool down and cannot rev up her blades to attack until she has vented all the access heat. Soul Detection Skill Level: Claus is a Master of soul detection, or at the very least considers himself very very good at it. Flaws: Claus even with his talent is at worst a whiny brat. He acts calm and collected but when things do not go his way he angers and can throw a tantrum.
-The Weapon-
Name: Helena "Lena" Dragic Age: 17 Gender: Female
Known as the "Singing Warblade" few can forget the almost hungry growl of Lena's weapon form, a massive chain sword of rotating blades.
Meister Partner: Claus Baumhauer Personality: Lena is very full of herself. She is one of the most powerful demon weapons in the school and she is not even a death scythe yet. However she has a very erratic soul wavelength at this makes it difficult for most Meisters to wield her much less use her at the full potential of her weapon form. She has learned to get along with her partner Claus though, but where he can seem calm and collected she is hot headed and cocky. History: Like most demon weapons Lena did not even know she was one until the day she accidental cut her bet in two pieces and destroyed the outer wall of her room. A quiet kid in school when people started showing interest in her when it was revealed that she was a weapon it gave her enough confidence the adopt the cocky hotshot person she has at the DWMA. Shortening her name a few letters to something she thought sounded more suited to her she left her normal life with the hopes of someday becoming a Death Scythe. While many were interested in her on the first day that quickly changed when many found out that they could not wield her because of the rapidly changing frequency of her soul. Many of the students just did not have the skill to match and keep up with her accept for Claus, who seemed a natural with his ability to control his soul and read others. And since he had no partner yet and she was the only remaining weapon the two of them were paired up. Soul Resonance Technique: "Soul Rend Overdrive" an over heat state that allows Lena to unleash the full destructive potential of her weapon form while in Soul Resonance with her partner. Flaws: Other than her strange soul wavelengths it can be seen that Lena is very weak willed, her tough cocky façade can be broken and reveal just how emotionally fragile she is.
Personality: Aria is the type that lives in the moment, simply going form one moment to the next not really thinking how her actions will affect her or others down the road. She is the type to keep people she doesn't trust at a distance even people she calls friends she tends to emotionally distance from. Keeping her true thoughts and feelings behind a happy, fun seeking carefree persona. Aria is slow to trust people although there are exceptions to people she finds interesting. She always seems ready for a brawl and gets a thrill out of fighting someone who is better then her or at her skill level.
The one true aspect about herself she can't hide is her temper which as gotten Aria into trouble more then once, it taking little to provoke her. Once angered there is a high chance she will like to try and beat who or whatever angered her to a pulp unless pulled in line by someone she will listen to. Behind Aria's persona is a sweet girl like to play around in a rough and tumble way. She is protective of things and people she cares about.
The middle child and the only girl out 6 siblings Aria grew up in death city and form a young age idolized her father who was meister. Growing up Aria spent most of her time either with her sibling or her father learning what having fully intending to follow in his footsteps. She spent most her time with her father leaning the skills of a meister. Her father more then happy to teach given her bothers had little interest in what he did.
Aria continued this training till the age of ten when her father long with his partner was killed out on mission by a witch. The lose devastated Aria and she quickly became withdrawn although outwardly she continued to act normally. But since that day Aria temper grew much shorter and she started started to pick fights with people that pushed her buttons.
At the age of sixteen she enrolled in the DWMA firstly at part of the N.O.T classes unsure if she wanted to be Meister. It was only when she met a boy by the name of Alex had just enrolled as weapon and gotten himself lost within the school. Alex asked Aria for help and she agreed and as she lead him to where he needed to go she took a liking to the boy finding him interesting. It was several days later Aria meet Alex again who had no luck finding a partner out simple curiosity Aria asked if she could try wielding his weapon form Alex agreeing, changed form and much to their surprise Aria wield Alex with only minor difficulty.
It was then Alex asked if Aria would be his partner, but at first Aria refused still unsure if wanted to be meister, but after few days of Alex bugging Aria and some bribery she agreed and switched to the E.A.T classes.
Soul Resonance Technique: Explosive Shot Once Aria and Alex have reached Resonance Aria can fire a single high explosive round at her target will bore into them before detonating.
Soul Detection Skill Level: I'm good at it.
Flaws: Tends to forget to think things out without prodding, quick to anger and violence. A keeps all but a few emotionally distant form her and is slow to trust others.
Name: Alexander Dmitrievich Moskvin (goes by Alex)
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Appearance:
Weapon Appearance: Alex as the bayonet attachment.
Meister Partner: Aria Ruskin
Personality: Alex is the cautious calculating type who like to think things out before he dose things. He is a well mannered individual speaking often speaking in formal fashion even around his friends and family. Alex is a very claim person and very little can upset him and even if something dose Alex keeps a tight reign on his emotions so very unlikely to show it unless he wants to. He is a very caring and understanding person and take great pride and pleasure in helping others and tries to factor in other people when doing things. However he can be very cold and unemphatic to those he doesn't like and once he doesn't like someone they are in his bad books for life. He is a very understanding person when it comes to dealing with people and tend to tolerant of all but the most disturbing traits.
Alex suffers form social anxiety and when dealing with large groups of people Alex become very with withdrawn, however in a small group or dealing with one person he is very talkative so long as someone else engages the conversation. At time Alex can be childish and is extremely stubborn normally when his opinion clashes with someones else and he knows/ thinks he is right.
Born and raised in Russia Alex lived a perfectly normal childhood with perfectly normal parents. It wasn't till age off 13 when Alex started to hit puberty did his life suddenly take a more interesting turn. At first it was simply waking up with cut in his bedroom wall and bed, then is was his hands started aching whenever he started feel angry at someone. Alex completely unaware of the fact he had a weapon gene and it had become active.
Several months past and Alex simply grew accustom to the weird things that where happening around him. Doing his best to hide it form his parents, concerned how the might react. Having adjusted to the weird things Alex tried to work out what was going on with him he wasn't able to find any answers so in the end gave up simply putting up with it doing his best to control what was going on.
It was one morning when he was 15 when he awoke to find his body wasn't the same instead of his normal human body he awoke to find unknown to him in his weapon form . It only lasted for a moment but Alex grew greatly concerned about what was happening to him. But despite his concern he kept it hidden slowly learning to control it. Form that day Alex struggled to keep his secret from him parents and just before Christmas of that year Alex was unable to hide it form them.
It was during an argument with his father, Alex just got so riled up he lost control he transformed. The argument ended quickly after that his father surprised that his son and turned in to a weapon. Despite everything his parents reacted fairly well and unknown to Alex his mother had come form death city originally so had some rudimentary knowledge of meister and weapons.
Getting in touch with someone form the academy it didn't take long for someone to come and pay the family visit and it took even less time for that someone to explain Alex was a weapon and recommend that he be enrolled into the DWMA. Before Alex knew what was going on he was packing his bag and being sent death city. Where he could learn to about weapons and how to learn how to properly control his ability so he wouldn't hurt someone or himself.
Once in death city Alex went the Academy to finalize his enrollment but managed to get himself lost. This is when he meet a girl by the name of Aria who helped him get to where he needed to go. It several days later Alex meet this girl again having now enrolled as a weapon but had little luck finding a partner that was compatible and would agree to be his partner. It was then for some reason unknown to Alex Aria asked if she could try to wield him seeing no harm in doing so he agreed to let her.
The moment Aria wielded Alex the pair knew they where compatible and Alex out of desperation asked Aria if she'd be his partner. At first she refused but Alex didn't take no for an answer and after few days of him bugging her and offering her a few thing in exchange she agreed to be his Meister.
Soul Resonance Technique: Explosive Shot Once Aria and Alex have reached Resonance Aria can fire a single high explosive round at her target will bore into them before detonating.
Flaws: Is more susceptible to madness then a most people. Is extremely stubborn and can be childish at times. Can be overly cautious.
Appearance: Soonue stands at around 5'5" and has a small build. Underneath every bandage is scarred.
Weapon Partner: Ari
Personality: Soonue is, to put it metaphorically (as she would too) "A steady rock in a rapid river." She is unusually calm in 99% of whatever she does. She has a habit of making up metaphors on the fly and explaining said metaphors with more metaphors.
She tends to shy away from combat. However, she is willing to fight if the ends will justify the means. Along with this, she is extremely convicted. She will not shy away from any choice she makes and she will follow it to the end.
History: Soonue was born in a small village along the coasts of the east. Her earliest memory was that of a fruit tree that bore orange fruit. However, this memory was not a happy one. Along with seeing the vivid colors of spring, she also saw a being of pure malevolence behind it. The being rushed her and the only remaining memories of that time were of pure fear and pain.
The next memory that she had was weeks later. She could not see anything. Only her 4 other senses remained. Instead of living in fear, as any other rational person would have, she instead vowed to never be afraid again. As such, she had adopted a calm and metaphorical demeanor. Though, this has always been a mask. In reality, she was afraid of everything. She didn't know what was around her. Though, the bitter loneliness of the nothingness was cut short by the entrance of a certain rich girl.
Soul Resonance Technique: The Seer - Soonue thrusts Ari's wires into the ground, causing it to sprawl out in a complex web of roots that embeds itself underground. This area is Soonue's territory. Within this territory, Soonue can perfectly sense everything that is also within it. As of their current state, Soonue can't do anything else along with this; with enough training, she would be able to create structures of wires within her territories.
Soul Detection Skill Level: Soonue is good at it, but her Soul Detection is unable to concentrate on single targets. Instead, she sees anything nearby in a less concentrated manner, but it gives her a good knowledge of her nearby surroundings (so long as they have a soul).
Flaws: She's blind and somewhat of a pacifist.
Ari DeVouselle
Age: 15
Gender: Female
Appearance: Ari stands at 5 feet and has a thin build, like Soonue.
Weapon Appearance: In weapon form, Ari takes the appearance of spool on an arm band. The thread on the spool is made out of some sort of metal. She can actually turn into more than one spool, but is extremely exhausting to maintain. Besides this, she can turn herself into an independent weapon. Though, this does convert her arms into wires that just... flop there. They don't do much, and as such, Ari doesn't use this form often.
Meister Partner: Soonue
Personality: Ari is proud and rather sweet. However, you shouldn't judge a book by its cover. Ari is rather violent and angry. Despite this, being raised in a very rich environment has caused her to be in permanent "sugar, spice and everything nice" mode.
Ari does have some issues stemming from her upbringing. She feels an overwhelming fixation on herself being useless. She tries her best to hide this, but sometimes it can just leak through.
History: Ari was born into an extremely rich and privileged lineage of unconventional weapons. Being a meister of these weapons was considered to be a privilege. As such, Ari's upbringing was filled with affirmation of her skill in weaponry. However, this caused many problems. As Ari grew up, they always treated her as a child. She would always reply sweet and politely. This also grew into Ari's feelings of uselessness.
She was unable to come to terms that her transformation was much less useful than something such as a sword. She kept on lying to herself. By lying to herself, she grew up bitterly while she had a faux personality of sweetness.
Weeks before arriving at DWMA, Ari had passed a small village multiple times. Each time, she had noticed a girl doing things with bandages covering her eyes. She was, remarkably, doing things such as gardening and fishing. Ari was filled with determination. If this blind woman could do everything without sight, then she could become the world's greatest weapon despite being so useless. She eventually met up with the girl and vowed to be the greatest weapon-meister combo with her, despite the other one not knowing what was going on.
Soul Resonance Technique: The Seer - Soonue thrusts Ari's wires into the ground, causing it to sprawl out in a complex web of roots that embeds itself underground. This area is Soonue's territory. Within this territory, Soonue can perfectly sense everything that is also within it. As of their current state, Soonue can't do anything else along with this; with enough training, she would be able to create structures of wires within her territories.
Flaws: 100% bloodthirsty. Also, extremely sensitive about being called useless.
Dahlia is fair of complexion, with bright red hair swept over one shoulder and black eyes. Despite her age, she still has freckles. She wears a ruffled, dark-purple frock beneath brigandine armor. This armor is canvas packed tightly partially lined with oblong steel plates riveted to the fabric. Her body is lean, and her hands very rough.
Weapon Partner: Virgil
Personality: Dahlia is innately curious and hungry for knowledge. She is a perfectionist and a scholar through-and-through, dedicated to solving problems. While not particularly selfless, she has an acute sense of right and wrong and will be generally considerate to others, though her ire is easily earned by the foolish. She is very patient, except when it comes to finding out intriguing secrets, and can easily put up with most people. While neither aggressive nor fond of fighting, she gets quite a rush from it, which she finds somewhat disturbing. Her intelligence is of particular note, and given her position as a meister, she is not lacking in the leadership department, either. When not in a good mood, Dahlia can be snarky and unpleasant, but even in the direst of times she is dependable. A little-known fact is her infatuation with her partner.
Hailing from the Chrysocolla archipelago, Dahlia went through an unremarkable adolescence in the town Laudanum. While she found she had a keen interest in history, going so far as to read as much as she could about the various continents and races, Dahlia also developed a fascination with technology not commonly available in her country of origin. With each word she imbibed and picture she analyzed about the machines, automobiles, and other such innovations that could be found in the mainland in the east, she grew more enamored with progress, until she was so focused on the past and the future that the present couldn't sustain her curiosity and desire. Her parents, recognizing their daughter's need to leave the natural world behind, sought out the aid of Mrs. Zywie Cane, a botanist from the mainland temporarily living in the islands for her studies. The good-humored doctor soon became fast friends with Dahlia, and after Dahlia completed secondary school in Laudanum, she requested that Mrs. Cain allow her to travel with her as she moved to the mainland.
Not long thereafter, the journey began. Filled with excitement about visiting the wondrous world the she had touched upon in her history books, she left the islands of Chrysocolla with Mrs. Cane. Every new thing was an object of interest to her, and the more strange or complicated the sight, the more delighted she was. When she finally arrived in the seaboard city Jacaranda, which situated the university at which Mrs. Cane worked, she was exhausted but happy. Rooming with Mrs. Cane in an apartment near the college, she promptly enrolled using the funds her parents had saved up for her back on Chrysocolla. During this time she learned of DWMA for the first time, and resolved to apply.
She met Virgil on a rainy day, having both taken refuge from the storm inside an old building. For lack of anything better to do, the two settled to talking. Their personalities clashed almost immediately, but neither would admit defeat by resorting to rudeness, so their argument only grew more heated. Neither noticed the building growing darker and quieter. Out of nowhere, a malformed shape flew from the shadows to attack the two. Shocked, Dahlia suffered an egregious clawmark, but before the monster could kill her Virgil transformed into a tower shield to protect her. Working together, the two managed to beat down the creature, and at Dahlia’s beleaguered advice he consumed its soul. Later, while Dahlia got patched up at a hospital, she explained that she planned to attend DWMA as a Meister, and with sudden shyness asked that Virgil attend as a Weapon. Though it went against all his plans, Virgil decided to throw caution to the wind and oblige her. The two traveled to Death City shortly after.
Soul Resonance Technique: Rebuff Overdrive – when her soul resonates with Virgil’s, he is surrounded in a shining, tumultuous, gaseous coating. When attacks or projectiles come into contact with the Rebuff aura, they are deflected. The better the resonance, the faster the movement of the silver wind across the surface, and the faster and more powerful the reflected attacks are. While physical attacks simply bounce off, projectiles can be deflected in whichever direction the shield’s eye is facing. This even includes invisible and nonprojectile attacks like curses, jinxes, and hexes; they will be reflected onto the caster.
Soul Detection Skill Level: She’s actually pretty terrible at it.
Flaws: She’s a tryhard, a smart aleck, overly inquisitive, and has bad Soul Detection
Weapon
Name: Virgil Marowit
Age: 19
Gender: Male
His teak-brown hair is wild and untamable, and the rest of his body is very hairy besides. He has a large, thick nose, a big chin, and an eye with black sclera and magenta iris. His left eye is covered at all times by a patch with the likeness of a fearsome eye sewn onto it in gray thread. Taking it off, it is revealed that it is a lazy eye with bad vision. Virgil is a big man, with an admirable musculature mostly hidden under a little bit of fat, but his tendency to stoop makes him seem shorter than he really is. He wears a one-sleeved blue silk shirt with a burgundy sash on top, which itself has magenta tassels. In comparison, his black pants are decidedly simple, and his thick-heeled shoes oddly modern. A necklace made of wooden fangs and a big backpack complete the ensemble. When not in use, his shotgun resides stock-up inside the backpack.
Weapon Appearance: A contoured tower shield with a scaled, cobalt surface, and an eye like a larger version of Virgil’s own in its center. Aside from the eye, which Virgil can open and close as he wills, the only interesting part of the shield is the handle, which can be rotated. Upright, defense is better, but pivoted to follow along his meister’s arm, he makes a great bludgeon.
Meister Partner: Dahlia
Personality: Through gruff and by no means outgoing, Virgil is nevertheless an outstanding friend. He treasures close relationships and socializing with others, generally pursuing quality over quantity in terms of compatriots. He is tough and somewhat impulsive, and while of no more than average intelligence, he has a certain charm and common sense that make up for his lack of genius. He doesn't mince words and tends to speak exactly what is on his mind, and he can be scornful of those who lack integrity and basic fortitude. He has a strong honest streak, but has no real semblance of a hero. He sees Dahlia like a little sister, and is suitably protective of her, though he can also be bossy.
Born in the coastal city Jacaranda to as the second son of a security guard named Saver Marowit and the deli owner Heather Cane, Virgil's upbringing was rougher than most in the affluent port. His busy parents devoted all the time they could to him, but they could not always be with him or his brother, and in search of connection with others the two sought others. At the ages of five and seven respectively, Virgil and Yosef joined a couple of other boys at play. Every day after school, the children reconvened, and they formed a fast friendship that lasted until high school. There, troubled by the dichotomy of academia versus enjoyment, the group split in two. As hard as it was, Virgil and his pal Emmet tried to keep firmly on path of progress, while Yosef, Andrew, and Jabin pursued pleasure. The only place where the two factions would meet was in Jacaranda's resident gym, where they all put aside their differences to compete as wrestlers.
After graduating, the five were poised to disperse across Chalcedony. First, though, they decided that they would throw in one year of part-time work, traveling, and general perusing of the world before they settled down once more for college. After working out one day and on the way to his apartment, Virgil’s bike broke down, leaving him stuck in the city in pouring rain. He retreated into the nearest building he could find to wait out the storm, and there happened to meet Dahlia. For lack of anything better to do, the two settled to talking. Their personalities clashed almost immediately, but neither would admit defeat by resorting to rudeness, so their argument only grew more heated. Neither noticed the building growing darker and quieter. Out of nowhere, a malformed shape flew from the shadows to attack the two. Shocked, Dahlia suffered an egregious clawmark, but before the monster could kill her Virgil transformed into a tower shield to protect her. Working together, the two managed to beat down the creature, and at Dahlia’s beleaguered advice he consumed its soul. Later, while Dahlia got patched up at a hospital, she explained that she planned to attend DWMA as a Meister, and with sudden shyness asked that Virgil attend as a Weapon. Though it went against all his plans, Virgil decided to throw caution to the wind and oblige her. The two traveled to Death City shortly after.
Soul Resonance Technique: Rebuff Overdrive – when his soul resonates with Dahlia’s, he is surrounded in a shining, tumultuous, gaseous coating. When attacks or projectiles come into contact with the Rebuff aura, they are deflected. The better the resonance, the faster the movement of the silver wind across the surface, and the faster and more powerful the reflected attacks are. While physical attacks simply bounce off, projectiles can be deflected in whichever direction the shield’s eye is facing. This even includes invisible and nonprojectile attacks like curses, jinxes, and hexes; they will be reflected onto the caster.
Flaws: He can be blunt in dealing with others, brash in his approach to dangerous or complicated situations, and bossy when he thinks he knows better than others, particularly Dahlia, despite not being as smart as her.
Personality: Fionn is a girl of little words, and when she does speak, it is rarely more than polite small talk. Her image of shyness is only furthered by the fact that she becomes visibly uncomfortable when anyone comes within a couple of feet of her and is jumpy at the smallest surprise. However, her tendency to avoid being talkative makes her an understanding listener who can keep a secret to the grave. Almost impossible to anger, she can still be fiercely protective of her friends even though she shows it in a different way than most. Above all else, Fionn is sympathetic to anyone who she feels deserves kindness, as she herself went without it for most of her life.
History: Hailing from a little, rural town in Ireland, Fionn's early life up until her enrollment in the DWMA passed without much significance to the present. However, some of her more odd habits and behaviors would hint at some strange going-ons in her birthplace. Regardless, once she found herself at the foot of that massive staircase, she surely would have run off at the last second if it weren't for the little tag-a-long she had somehow acquired during the last leg of her journey to the U.S. Initially unsure of her potential as a meister, Fionn found solace in the fact that her companion had similar fears. Joni, as it turned out the girl's name was, had a rather unwieldy weapon form and was worried that she might hurt her partner more than help them. So, the two of them made a promise to partner up and support each other through thick and thin.
Soul Resonance Technique: "Chain Breaker": Fionn's weapon grows in size - in Joni's case, to about 26 feet in length - and glows white. The effect of this technique is that anything or anyone struck by the weapon will have any soul connections broken (regular/chain resonance, for example) temporarily. The amount of time that it takes for the connection to reform depends on the strength of the victims' bond. Any physical wound inflicted by the weapon will bleed faster as well.
Soul Detection Skill Level: I'm good at it.
Flaws: Fionn suffers from extreme "stage fright" to the extent that she would be unable to fight in front of her peers/teachers were it not for having Joni by her side. As a result, she is unlikely to ever be able to resonate well with another weapon or meister, especially in Joni's absence. She gets her feelings hurt easily and may even cry if someone makes fun of her. In terms of physical ability, she would be a serious threat if not for her deafness in her left ear. Without someone to warn her, she can be at risk of surprise attack from that side.
Weapon-
Name: Joni Fowler
Age: 14
Gender: Female
Appearance:
Weapon Appearance:
(Around 15 feet in length)
Meister Partner: Fionn Caxigo
Personality: Joni is essentially a chatty, bubbly ball of energy in the shape of a teenager. She often handles all communication on behalf of herself and her meister, even to the point of answering questions directed specifically at the other girl. Though she has a somewhat wicked sense of humor, she is often clueless when it comes to mature topics. Her mouth can sometimes get her into deep trouble, even when she's not trying to pick a fight, mainly due to the fact that she can rarely resist an inappropriate joke. However, despite just how obvious her young age can be, she is quick to defend her meister. As a matter of fact, her meister is the only person whom she would give up her life for.
History: Growing up on a ranch in Montana, Joni was no stranger to the idea of rough-and-tumble adventure when she discovered that she was a weapon. A strange combination of her mother's traditional western-style whip form and her father's martial chain-spear, Joni was practically bouncing off of walls until the date came for her to board a bus to Nevada and become a part of the DWMA. Despite her initial excitement, however, doubts began to weigh heavily on her mind the farther she traveled from her family. Above all, she dreaded the fact that no one might want to partner with her. Despite her own nerves, Joni quickly found someone even more anxious than herself. The girl sitting next to her on the bus was practically shaking in apprehension. Joni wasted no time in comforting her new friend, and found out by attempting to distract her through conversation that the girl was a meister enrolling in the DWMA. Since they both had similar misgivings about their situations, Joni decided to partner up with Fionn as soon as possible.
Soul Resonance Technique: Same as Meister's.
Flaws: Though Joni has a compatible soul wavelength, her physical weapon form can be difficult to control with accuracy and has no ability to make deep wounds. In terms of personality, her protectiveness of her meister can lead her to be overly suspicious of others and needlessly put herself in danger.
Meister- Name: Jason Diabolus Age: 16 Gender: Male Appearance: Weapon Partners: Julia and Rachel Diabolus Personality: Jason is a class two Sociopath, meaning that he genuinely is unable to feel empathy or most other emotions. The reality ofhis condition is that he is capable of feeling these emotions, but only towards those who manage to worm their way through his rough exterior and find his heart deep inside. As of right now the only thing that the boy cares about his his two little sisters, who are also his weapons. He is highly intelligent and often able to see the big picture when others can not. He does attempt to be polite to others and can often come off as rough individual, but this is simply because he doesn't see the point in wasting time on being polite to everybody around him. He has certain triggers that when set off, the people will absolutely lose it, attempting to slaughter whoever set off said trigger. History: Jason was born from a father who had fallen in love with his weapon, Jason's mother. A year after the boy was born, his mother gave birth to twins, his little sisters Julia and Rachel. Unlike Jason, they had the ability to turn into a weapon like their mother. They also demonstrated a natural ability to resonate with their older brother (who was very close to them at the time). Later on, when Jason was around 15 years old and the girls were out playing with their friends, he bore witness to a being that was attempting to become a Kishin. In the fight it was slain, but managed to get lethal blows in on Jason's mother and father. The boy felt his mental state shatter as his parents died in his arms, and he vowed to destroy the forces of evil and protect his sisters at all costs. Jason's ability to feel eventually fell away as a form of Jason's mind trying to make him cope. He soon found himself joining the DWMA with his sisters as his weapons. Soul Resonance Technique: Blades of the Elements: Whenever the Meister and his weapons resonate souls, the three take on properties of the elements. This means that Julia's weapon form will become covered in flames, as that is her natural affinity and it will allow her to ignite enemies; as well as other things such as using her fire to superheat the blade to make it easier to cut through materials. Rachel will become covered in ice, allowing her to be more resistant to damage while also sharpening said ice into a very lethal point. In some cases she is capable of forcing the ice to spread onto something she comes in contact with, causing freezing damage. Meanwhile Jason takes on a simple aspect of the wind, he is capable of moving at accelerated speeds. (Similar to Speed Star though not quite as fast). Soul Detection Skill Level: I'm good at it. Flaws: Being a class 2 Sociopath, Jason has a very hard time caring about others that he doesn't have a personal investment in. Meaning if you haven't managed to force your way into his heart and your in danger, he would only move to help you if it suited his needs and benefited him. Respectively he also has no issue seeing others give their lives to ensure the goal is achieved.
Weapon 1- Name: Julia Diabolus Age: 15 Gender: Female Appearance: (Left) Weapon Appearance: Meister Partner: Jason Diabolus Personality: Julia is introverted, she tends to shy away from others that she does not know and will often use her brother to put distance between herself and others. The girl knows all the formalities of the world, and uses them to make up for her twin's lack of formalities. She doesn't trust easily, but once her trust is earned then have an extremely loyal friend by your side. She usually will try to approach somebody that she is attracted to, although she will get nervous and start stammering over her words... or saying stupid things. There are two reasons for her nervousness, one is her being an introvert and the other is that her parents considered it taboo to be anything but straight... and Julia likes girls. Not guys. Her sister and brother are extremely supportive, but she still gets nervous over it. History: Same as her brother, just was not present when her parents died. Soul Resonance Technique: Blades of the Elements- Fire Affinity Flaws: Impulsive, she will often make a rash decision without thinking.
Weapon 2- Name: Rachel Diabolus Age: 15 Gender: Female Appearance: (Right) Weapon Appearance: Meister Partner: Jason Diabolus Personality: Rachel is very outgoing, she makes friends easily and enjoys the act of making friends. She is kind to everybody, and is often described as sweet. She's a very empathetic and earnest girl, although she is certainly lacking in the formalities area. She values the lives of others and friendship above all else, and uses these motives as a way to drive her forward int he quest to end all evil. She is known to get very shy around boys that she finds to be attractive, a stark contrast to her usual personality. History: Same as her brother, just was not present when her parents died. Soul Resonance Technique: Blades of the Elements- Ice Affinity Flaws: Easily Attached, Rachel will become easily attached to others. Meaning that she would put her life on the line to help anybody that she cares about (and she cares about most people).
