"Love and peace. They're the keys to everything in life!"
Personal Information
Name:Morgana Solomon
Age:16
Gender:Female
Phenotype:Faunus - Butterfly
Nationality:Menagerian
Appearance:Morgana has always been rather small for her age, and as of right now, she only stands at 157cm (5' 2"). She's also significantly lighter than she really should be, only weighing in at 37kg (81lbs). Surprisingly enough, she does have quite the attractive figure, with a BWH ratio of 23-13-20 if measured in inches and 58-33-51 if measured in centimeters. Morgana's arms and legs are extremely thin, and her rib cage can barely be visible when one takes a close look at her exposed mid-section, indicating that much of her body is skin and bone. She wears a sundress that ties up from the straps, and the top-most hem is decorated with butterflies all around. It discretely conceals a total of 10 holsters for the vials of Dust that she carries into battle, which can be found at the sides of her stomach area, on both hips, on the front, outward side and back of each thigh and the same again on each calf.
Personality:The Solomons have always been nice, kind and friendly people, and Morgana is certainly no exception. She's always ready to lend a hand to those in need, whether they ask for it or not, and she'll rarely ask for anything in return. Morgana is the type of person that will continue to give until she's got nothing left to give. And even if someone gives her a first impression of insolence, Morgana will immediately forgive them and try another, hopefully more civil interaction. She'll feel disheartened every time she gets pushed away, but she'll remain determined to befriend and try to talk to who she can. This is especially the case if she has reason to be concerned about someone in particular, with what her wanting to aid them in any way she can.
Well... any way that doesn't involve her sabotaging her beliefs, that is. Morgana is very passionate about advocating for love and peace and, although her grades for Mirage Academy prove that she's at least somewhat of a competent combatant, she is a natural pacifist at heart. If the enemy is someone that can hypothetically be reasoned with, that will be the first option that Morgana will take, hands down. She'll even ask that her teammates not attack the enemy straight away; not until she's done everything she can to make a diplomatic solution that everyone can agree with. She'll only attack in self-defense, and even then, it'll still reflect on her conscience.
Some may question whether Morgana's head is filled with flowers. Her usual personality certainly gives off enough of a bubbly, innocent and almost childish vibe to it, and seeing or hearing any act of violence seems to chip away at her mental state ever so slowly. Morgana has never forged a weapon for herself for this very reason, and still refuses to wield one to this day; she won't even use one as a conduit. Morgana will defend her beliefs to the very end, however, and that may yet be what makes her the Huntress she aspires to be.
Biography:In an island far away from the Four Kingdoms of Remnant, there lived a community of faunus that lived peacefully, without humans there to bully them or discriminate against them. Morgana Solomon was born and raised in this community, but she had dreams and aspirations of seeing the whole world, which had stuck with her even as a child. Her parents were skeptical about the idea of her going out to any of the Four Kingdoms, since there was much out there that could hurt her and they were a little uneasy talking about all the dangers, concerned that at least one or two of them would completely fly over the young girl's head. Morgana's parents were a little overprotective of their eldest daughter, even though they had six other children to look after as well, but Morgana appreciated the fact that they cared about her nonetheless, and the whole family lived happily while they were together, for the most part.
Shortly after she hit the age of 14, Morgana was finally able to leave Menagerie and explore the world like she always dreamed of. She boarded a cruise ship that was bound for port town in Vacuo, where an aunt would pick her up and take care of her for the time being. The first thing Morgana wanted to do was hit the public library. She picked up an entire assortment on books about Dust, as that subject had drawn her eye specifically. From there, she learned that there were several stores around Vacuo that specialized in supplying Dust to customers, and in one of those stores, the storekeeper was kind enough to let Morgana know there were combat schools that had been designed to train enthusiasts like her how to use Dust safely and effectively. The closest one that someone of her age bracket could legally enroll in was Mirage Academy, so that was where her true quest began.
Despite her best efforts, however, Morgana had a rocky start during the first couple of months of training. She was both physically and academically inept at first, and she had been bullied for her pacifistic nature very early in, although this was resolved the second the staff became aware of it. Morgana had even tried to ask the top student in her class at the time, Skyler Gallegos, for tips on all the subjects she'd been struggling with, only to be blown off by the arrogant snake faunus each and every time. In spite of her inability to comprehend a few things here and there, Morgana persevered through the necessary time of training at Mirage Academy, securing decent grades all-round and an exceptional report for her ability in Dust manipulation. Now she only has one more bump in the road left in the way of her dream to travel the world: Shade Academy, where all the Vacuans aim to train to become quality Huntsmen and Huntresses.
Combat Information
Weapon:Morgana doesn't wield any type of weaponry in the physical sense, because the idea of possessing a tool that had been designed and manufactured for the purposes of war does not sit well with her in the slightest. However, she does have access to a vast armament of Dust that she can use to defend herself from the creatures of Grimm when her team is on a mission. Morgana's wings are heavily infused with both Hard-Light and Gravity Dust, and she seems to have the greatest affinity with those two types in particular, but she has vials upon vials of all the other types of Dust as well, which she keeps in the holsters that she equips under her dress. Morgana has also Dust Weaved all of the dresses she wears for an even greater supply of Dust for each mission, and although they're all of the same color, she's marked which dress had been weaved with which type of Dust, so that she can choose which one she suspects she'll need most. The vial holsters are also Dust Weaved with each of the 10 different types of Dust that the vials contain but their smaller surface area means she has just a little less Dust from each to work with. Hence all the vials Morgana has on her.
Semblance:Brewing Storm of Dust:
In exchange for a key percentage of her Aura, Morgana can severely increase the damage output of her Dust attacks.
Aura Color:Neon Pink
Points in Favor:- Although her capabilities in this regard are limited, Morgana can in fact use her wings to fly. Through the aid of their infused Hard-Light Dust, she has enough strength in her wings to go up to 500 meters (1640 feet) in the air. She can also stay airborne for approximately 20 minutes at a time, although it will take a severe toll on her stamina. If she loses all of her stamina mid-flight, Morgana can always invoke the Gravity Dust in her wings in an emergency, which will stop her from taking lethal damage in a great fall.
- While she can't cover any more ground than most people while she still has two feet on the floor (the fact that she runs like a complete girl doesn't help), Morgana proves to have much more speed and agility whilst in flight; more than her enemies are able to give her credit for. This makes her a strong candidate for combating the aerial creatures of Grimm such as Nevermores or Lancers, which maybe more difficult for the other Huntsmen and Huntresses to gun down depending on the accuracy and range of their weapons. Morgana even has a few tricks up her sleeve that allow her to momentarily save her wing strength without sacrificing her speed.
- This generation of Huntsmen and Huntresses certainly has plenty of talented users of Dust, which makes it difficult to pick one out from the pack, but the sheer amount of creativity Morgana brings to the table in this regard is second to none. While she's at most applicable with Hard-Light and Gravity Dust, she's familiarized herself with every single other type of Dust to use against all enemies as she sees fit; even Water Dust, which is known to be difficult to use effectively, and Fire and Lightning Dust which she's not so comfortable attacking with. It just goes to show what she's capable of as a Huntress.
Points in Disfavor:- Because her Semblance requires the sacrifice of Aura for its activation, Morgana will rarely have enough Aura left to protect herself from any attacks that hit their mark against her. Such attacks will hit her harder than they would anyone else as a result, and any that hit the Dust vials that she has equipped will cause them to explode, dealing even more damage to Morgana. This is exactly why other Dust experts always tell Morgana that it's much safer for her to use a weapon as a Dust conduit, even though she has qualms against the use of weaponry. She did consider putting on the armor she forged at Mirage Academy to use as a conduit instead, but she's neither sure that it will give her satisfactory protection nor confident that she can make it stronger without it slowing her down.
- Incidentally, the longer Morgana has to continue fighting, the more certain that it'll reflect on her conscience. It'll be even worse if the enemies that Morgana is expected to combat aren't the dark creatures of Grimm, as chances are they are instead human beings that may very well be able to see reason, and be approached in a diplomatic manner so that a peaceful resolution can be procured. If there's even the slightest chance that negotiation is an option, Morgana will be quick to pursue that option. After all, the whole reason she trained to become a Huntress was that so she could save lives, not necessarily take them.
- Morgana has made a lot of sacrifices to keep her body light enough to maximize her ability to fly; this includes stomach stapling which, although well intentioned in its design to prevent her from overeating, outright stops her from being able to eat enough for herself from time to time. It wouldn't even be surprising if Morgana were to be defeated in an eating competition by a preschooler! To make matters worse, trying to serve Morgana too large of a portion of food may unnerve her into not touching any of it at all, which is a problem because she needs to keep her strength up for her schooling and especially key missions.

Relationships:- Skyler Gallegos: Morgana and Skyler keenly remember each other from their attendance at Mirage Academy, since they were in the same class. They converse with each other on occasion; more so than they ever did back then. But Skyler still won't have a bar of Morgana's attempts to befriend her. Skyler views Morgana's bubbly ideology as a poison of sorts but, while she also considers her weak-minded for choosing to be a pacifist for the most part, she can respect her resolve to try and become a competent Huntress. Morgana evidently tires of Skyler's efforts to push her away every time they meet, but her immense sympathy and worry for the snake faunus is what's keeping her from giving up on her and abandoning her completely. Morgana worries because she knows how far Skyler is willing to go when she beats herself up, having seen the full extent of her self-destructive side first hand.
